An Extra’s POV

"If I may be so impudent, could you please tell us the nature of what you have to do?"

The one who asked the question was Adonis.

Yes, he respected Ralyks immensely. The man was incredibly powerful, and he was selfless in many regards. Despite all his good qualities, Adonis could not remain blind to a few of his suspicious traits.

For example, his unwillingness to participate in a Dungeon Conquest that would definitely be a betterment to humanity.

"I have some private investigations I will need to conduct, so I won't be around for an extended period of time." Ralyks responded calmly, still on his feet.

"And it can not wait?"

It pained Adonis to press on this way, but he had no choice. As someone who had seen the future—one where there was no Ralyks—he had to understand this man very well.

"It cannot." Once Ralyks gave this response, Adonis felt deflated.

He had no right to pry any further, and in all honesty, Ralyks was doing him a big favor by even responding to the questions.

"Sorry for asking so many unnecessary questions." Adonis bowed, but the Dark Adventurer shrugged it off.

"It's fine. Also, while I won't be around, I don't mind transporting everyone to the Adventurers City tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room beamed.

The Adventurers City was very far. Even on the fastest carriage, it would take nearly a week to reach the location. The fastest way to get there would be through Magic, but since none of the students had Spatial Magic, it wouldn't be an easy feat.

If they boosted their transportation with Items and the likes, they would still need a few days to reach the location.

'The higher-ups at the Adventurers Guild also recognize this, so they are probably not expecting much from us despite requesting for our assistance.' Conrad thought to himself, smiling intensely. 'But with Sir Ralyks, we can bypass all of those problems.'

That was one of the major reasons why they called him in.
