An Extra’s POV

'What should I do now?'

That was the question Rey asked himself when he thought of the Grand Calamity Dungeon.

It posed too much of a risk to him, and everything he had built thus far, if he decided to go as Ralyks. If Adrien was indeed behind what was going on, there was a huge chance he was being lured in.

The mere possibility that he was being used made Rey rule out his strongest card—Ralyks.

That wasn't the only reason, though.

Rey wasn't sure how far the name of Ralyks had spread, so it would be too much of a risk if he used his most influential persona. He would stick out like a sore thumb, and that would ruin the point of everything.

Of course, not all attention was bad. However, in the case of his identity as Ralyks, it was much better for him to get no attention at all than for him to get any.

'Ralyks is someone who is already an Adventurer, but is keeping his identity secret. It would be weird if I had to register as an Adventurer while being Ralyks.'

It would literally cause his persona to crumble.

Besides, until he could confirm if Adrien was behind the incident or not, perhaps even figure out what his plan could be, Rey decided it was best not to use his Ralyks persona.

That was probably what was best for everyone—himself most of all.

What then?

If not Ralyks, then how was he going to get the freedom to properly explore and investigate the city?

The answer was pretty simple.

'I'll just make another Alt Account!'

That was how the Dark Gentleman Jet came to be. He decided on a new set of clothes and chose a different aesthetic—even abandoning his staple mask.
