An Extra’s POV

The tension in the air was palpable.

As Sebas—the man who had just kicked Jet several meters away with speed that transcended what the human eyes could keep up with—stood before Lux, partner of the dark gentleman, everyone was silent and watched.

Sebas was undoubtedly stronger than most Adventurers, and even now, he was incredibly strong. However, just by hearing the murmurs among the group within the white barrier, it was easy to see what the people thought.

"W-was he always that strong? He beat Jet just like that!"

"Don't be stupid! Sir Jet has been fighting and protecting us all this time. Of course, he's going to be exhausted."

"Yeah! If he was at full power, he'd never lose!"

"A-ahh…"

"What day did you join?"

"Day 4."

"No wonder. I've been here since Day 2, but I know people who were with him from Day 1. The man is a beast, and he takes no rest!"

"F-for real?!"

"Yeah! The other side must have a lot more Master and Veteran Rank Adventurers, and less members too. It must not have been as burdensome as it was with us…"

"And Sir Jet carried most of that burden…"

This was what the audience thought as they looked at the fight between Sebas and Jet.

And so, the moment they witnessed the latter's partner step up, they nearly went insane due to the tension alone.

She even spoke, and while it sounded mesmerizingly feminine, the threatening tone she used caused everyone to shiver.

Her "… you're dead" carried a lot of weight that it hardly felt like a bluff.

Lux didn't have a lot of offensive feats, but her defensive and restrictive attacks were second to none. She seemed like the perfect counter for Sebas' tyrannical assault.
