An Extra’s POV

After some more minutes—nearly spanning an hour—of discourse concerning the company, its assets, and a bunch of other technical things kept brief, the official handing down was over.

Of course, this was just the official state of things.

Rey still appointed Rebal as the CEO, and Kara as the Deputy. Asher's role, as well as the other staff's responsibilities, would be decided by the two heads of the company.

Even though he was the true Head of The Reaper Group, he didn't have to do anything.

'I guess being Ralyks is enough for them…' Rey mused, considering how they readily agreed with no caveats.

Just as he expected, this must have been what they were after all along.

'I don't even really mind that they're using me. I'll be using them plenty in the future…'

The people of the Reaper Group knew that he could kill them at any time, so they wouldn't dare scheming against him. He was also sure he had shown a fair amount of intelligence to accompany his power, so they wouldn't consider him to be dumb.

'If I was all muscle and no brain, they could have manipulated me and used me for my strength while offering nothing of real value in return.'

But that wasn't what happened.

The KariBlanc Group, now Reaper Group, knew what he was capable of… and they probably suspected him of even more feats.

'I'm sure they won't betray me.'

"A-ah… Sir Ralyks, I apologize for not remembering until now. Lady Esme informed me that she would like to see you now."

Rey's eyes nearly bulged the moment he heard those words.

'He knows her name?! Did Esme tell him?' That seemed to be the only explanation, all things considered.
