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.

It was nearly convincing to Rey, in all honesty.

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

Rey personally felt like all of it was unnecessary, since pretty much everyone already knew who Jet and Lux were, but he also understood how big of a deal it was for two new Heroic Rank Adventurers to pop out of nowhere.

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

Paranoia was indeed a deadly thing.
