An Extra’s POV

Chapter 299

'I see. So this is what you meant, Ater…'

As Rey trailed behind Billy and Adonis, he had a hidden smile on his face.

After their earlier conversation, the three hadn't spoken very much. In fact, it was mostly Billy talking to Adonis, and that was perfectly fine.

However, something had definitely changed, and Rey could see it.

'We've gotten a bit closer. I understand the two of them a lot better.'

Billy most likely regretted what he did that led Alicia into such dangers based on his words and actions. It also seemed like he wanted to be a better person.

'I can't dismiss that he could be lying, but if I cross reference what he said with his [Additional Information], then it's easy to see that he's telling the truth.'

Rey found it almost comical how detached he was to Billy when they had been the closest of friends merely months prior to this entire incident.

'I guess a lot can happen within such a short span of time'

Barely two months had passed, and things had become this way. It showed just how fleeting experiences and human life generally was.

'In any case, Ater was right. This whole thing should prove beneficial to the whole group, and it helped satisfy my curiosity as well.'

Rey figured that a similar occurrence would have happened between the two other groups, and Ater would probably record all that information for him somehow.

'This is good…'

There was nothing better than a common understanding among members of a group for effective teamwork.

'I still don't fully understand how he was able to go about this and get this result, but I can make a few guesses.'

For one, by causing the atmosphere to be tense and pulling at certain heartstrings, he caused Clark and Justin to be the first to display some measure of emotion and reveal parts of themselves that they normally wouldn't.

This lit a fuse that inevitably led to everyone else being more open and predisposed to sharing information given the right circumstances.

'The next thing he did was to divide us into groups that would increase chances of revealing said information.'

Justin, Eric, and Clark were close friends—and they were boys—so it was a given that they would share deeper conversations with each other.
