An Extra’s POV

Chapter 335

'Adrien Chase… it all makes sense now.'

As Rey's thoughts trailed, he wondered why he never pieced together all of the information beforehand.

'Back then, when I first saw him standing behind Scylla… I instantly knew he was involved. I just didn't know why…'

However, now that they were standing opposite each other, Rey had a good idea of what was going on.

"Did you manipulate the events thus far? Pretending to be a part of the Criminal Underworld… acting like someone you're not… just to gain all the benefits?"

Rey thought along these lines because they were the kind of things he had done and would do in order to get what he wanted.

What were the chances that Adrien had a similar thought pattern as him?

'He has been controlling Scylla without her knowledge. He probably wants all the resources of the Underworld for himself.'

This was an elaborate way to set things up, but he was able to orchestrate the events thus far.

'Or am I the one overthinking it?' Rey thought to himself.

"No, you're not overthinking things."

The moment Rey heard Adrien's voice and saw the boy move, Rey instantly took an offensive stance.

"Relax…" Adrien reached for his mask and began to pull it away.

"… I don't want to fight."

As Adrien revealed his face to Rey, it precisely matched the smiling boy who turned back back then.

His black hair swayed as his blue eyes gleamed with some sort of hidden motives.

He instantly got shivers when he remembered that event, but [Dead Calm] suppressed everything in an instant.
