An Extra’s POV

"So, I'll have to return tomorrow for my Test, right?"

Adonis was already standing to his feet after filling all his forms. He could tell that the lady in front of him was interested, but he just wasn't having it.

It was better for him to spare them both the embarrassment and leave as soon as his business was concluded.

"No. There's no need for that." Burke answered, rising to her feet as well.

'H-huh? Don't tell me…!'

"You must have heard, right? That an A-Tier Monster was captured by those two."

Adonis tried to hide his surprise, but it was too much to be contained. He had indeed heard about it from the group of Adventurers he spoke to the previous day, but he thought that was an exaggeration on their part.

They seemed to disagree on so many details about the Monster that he assumed they heard the news from someone who, perhaps, also heard it from another.

It seemed like unreliable information at best.

'So it was true? They actually captured one?' A bead of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Why…?"

Burke heard his whisper and chose to answer him, despite it merely being rhetorical. "Why else? For the purposes of the next Heroic Rank Test."

Hearing that only further confused Adonis.

The actions of the two didn't seem like what Dragons would do. Why would they ever think of contributing to the cause?

'Unless… could the Monster be a trap?' The only for him to find out was to actually see the thing.

Lucky for him, he was going to be taking the Test that day.
