An Extra’s POV

'Why is Adonis pretending to be a fan? Was this part of the plan?'

Rey felt confused as he stared at the flustered expression of the Hero who stiffly stood before him.

All of this was a surprise to him. He only came to the Guild with Esme since they were told to come for their official recognition ceremony.

It was going to be hosted from the Guild and broadcast to the entire city.

'I even heard some people trying to draw connections between our arrival and the Dungeon's appearance… as if that even makes sense.'

Their actions also made him feel ridiculous for suspecting Adrien being behind the Dungeon's appearance.

Paranoia was indeed a deadly thing.

'After studying a bit more about Dungeons to refresh my memory, I no longer think he made this one appear.' Rey laughed at himself.
