An Extra’s POV

"I see. It's understandable…"

Upon hearing Ralyks' response, they bowed thier heads in appreciation.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Ralyks shrugged, and while the tension was still quite high, Adonis took the opportunity to simply blurt out the words that were difficult to say.

"We hope you will continue to be our ally, Sir Ralyks. We've been able to advance so much thanks to you. We do not want to lose your help."

There were a bunch of questions regarding Ralyks, but none of them asked them at this moment.

Questions like; "Why isn't he fighting in the war against the Dragons" or "Where has he been all this time?"

They were irrelevant at the moment.

Ralyks must have had his reasons for not showing up until now, and for not joing the front lines to defeat the ones who threatened all of their lives.

It wasn't in their place to judge him—especially after his contribution to the cause.

All they could do was request for more help.

"Rest assured. I am indeed on the side of humanity. I won't do anything to the detriment of the people."

The audience beamed as soon as he said this. It was more than just a promise. It was an assurance given by the most powerful man in the world.

That was more than enough for the Royal Council to be satisfied.

"Thank you… for being an ally of humanity." Conrad rose to his feet and shook Ralyks' hand. Aterwards, the other two took their turn to do the same.

"We are most grateful, Sir Ralyks."
