An Extra’s POV

Chapter 447

The plan was to spend an hour exploring.

But, due to their long conversation, the incredible amount of fun they were having, and just the reluctance to leave each other… the two ended up spending nearly four hours together.

It was already getting dark at this point, as the evening had aged into night.

Rey walked side by side with Alicia, as they found themselves under the night sky, enjoying the cool ambiance of the world around them.

None of them said anything. They were just soaked in the world around them as they felt the warmth of their hands.

Yes, they were holding hands.

Even Rey didn't know when this started, but they just happened to do so. So far, their activities had included a lot of sightseeing and eating tons of local delicacies.

They didn't taste as good as the Royal Estate meals, but just as Rey noted during his time with Noah, the food in the city had a certain flavor that made it stand out to the senses.

Nonetheless, they had tons of fun.

'Is this a date?' At some point Rey had to ask himself.

He looked at Alicia and observed her smile. She seemed happy—very happy—with him. Didn't that mean that she liked him?

'But what if it's just as a friend and I'm overthinking it?'

If that was the case, then he would ruin their friendship by confessing to her. That had been what was holding him back for so long.

Well, that and his secret as Ralyks.

'I can't keep running from my feelings. I'll confront them once I reveal myself as Ralyks and tell her the truth!'

He was still scared about what her reaction was going to be. However, since he really believed that he had to be honest with the person he really loved… he just had to take the leap and hope for the best.

'I'll tell her about it in private first. Then, I'll reveal it to everyone else…' It would be when Lucielle and Brutus arrived, so he wouldn't have to explain himself again.
