An Extra’s POV

As all the Heroic Rank Adventurers littered the battlefield, the tension that pervaded the air became so vivid that everyone could feel it.

It was a massive space, but somehow both sides felt as close to the conflict as one could possibly get.

The group within the white dome, ignorant but hopeful, were in full support of Jet and Lux.

Now that Noah had joined the fray, he too had their support.

The other side, shrouded by a golden barrier, already knew who the enemies were—Jet and Lux—and they also knew that they had to die.

With these two sides having their representatives in a three against one deadlock, the battle was about to get even more chaotic.

And everyone waited in anticipation to see who would win, and more importantly…

… Who would lose.

His smile, despite how tense the battle was, pissed her off. The ignorant lad had no idea about the stakes of the battle, yet he was defending them?

Why?!

"Dragons? Yeah… so you people say." He responded casually. "You, Sebas, and everyone on your side seems to believe that they are the enemy."

Britta was so filled with anger that she felt like exploding.

'It's not like I started out believing it, or that I wanted to…!' She just had to look at the evidence and go against her bias.
