An Extra’s POV

Once people saw the ring, their questions grew into suspicion.

Why was Ralyks giving Belle a ring? Of course, they didn't particularly question Ralyks' integrity, as they had noticed it was Belle who constantly flocked around him.

He also behaved appropriately at all times.

As such, no one could really blame him. Besides, people became adults at the age of 16 in this world, and so it wouldn't be strange if Ralyks treated Belle as an adult.

He wasn't averse to putting them in harm's way, so he probably thought they were all mature enough to handle themselves.

When one put all of these factors together, it would be a really far off assumption to blame Ralyks for what just transpired. However, no matter how clean a record one had, there would always be one person who saw another angle to it.

"That's very sus…" Justin commented while giving a naughty smile.

Unfortunately for him, he was stifled by the jabs and knocks from his fellow students before he could say any more to disgrace himself.

Needless to say, most of the students accepted the ring in good faith. It looked like a powerful Enchanted Item, and was bound to help the wielder well.

No one had any complaints, and other than Justin, they all sort of recieved it well.

The only other person who seemed to take the perverted approach was none other than Belle herself.

She was blushing violently as Ralyks handed her the ring, despite it having no romantic connotations at all. Tears fell from her eyes, and she staggered back a few steps, almost as if she was going to faint.

Thankfully, it didn't happen.

Instead, she took the ring with shivering hands and bowed her head to Ralyks—probably to hide how intensely she was was blushing, though it was already too late.

"I am g-grateful for this gift, Sir Ralyks. I will strive to do even more to please you."
