An Extra’s POV

Just as Ralyks told the team, he left them alone so he could patrol the area.

As a result, all nine Otherworlders—as well as Alicia's Rabbit—were left in the well-lit cave.

For a few moments, there was silence in the place.

No one said a word.

Rey looked around and saw the gloomy faces of everyone around him. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

'I didn't think things would get as intense as this.'

To be honest, he already knew all of this would happen since it was orchestrated by Ater.

"I'm really sorry, guys. I thought, for sure, that tied them up good. I didn't think any of them would escape like that…"

Justin was the one who broke the silence with his apology.

Adonis was the first to respond with the comforting words: "We all make mistakes."

Then, others said similar stuff. Things like;

"It's fine. As long as no one got hurt."

"That was a close call. Glad you're fine."

"It's as Sir Ralyks said… mistakes are inevitable."

Most people had their expressions darkened the moment his name was mentioned, and it was for an obvious reason.

Rey watched all of this, and while he nodded in agreement with everything that was being said, his thoughts flowed in a completely different direction.

'Ater purposely cut the strings at specific areas so that the Centipede could escape. He must have known Clark would do what he did, and everything else played out right as he wanted it to…'

In all honesty, Rey didn't completely get the full scope of Ater's plan, since he had requested for it to be simplified for him to understand.
