An Extra’s POV

No matter how one looked at it, humanity was screwed.

Now that a Dragon Lord had arrived here, there was no hope for survival in the slightest.

Even if they managed to fend off the Dragon Lord—an impossible feat on its own—this would only alert the other Dragon Lords, which could inevitably spiral into a more devastating situation.

"If we tell the Dragon Lord what he wants, there's a chance he might leave us alone, right? Why don't we go with that?" Lucielle spoke up, her voice oozing with concern.

The bright smile she usually had was gone, and nothing but pure seriousness remained.

She was staring at Adonis, as was everyone who had gathered in a circle. The bodies of their unconscious allies were still laying on the ground, and while Lucielle managed to give them emergency potions, they were yet to gain consciousness.

Only Brutus, Belle, Alicia, Adonis, and the Grand Mage herself, were gathered around in the circle; discussing their next move.

Well, it wasn't more of a discussion and more like haphazard suggestions.

"That won't work." Adonis sighed, shaking his head slowly.

No matter what suggestions were made, he always shot it down with a valid point that completely rendered it non-feasible.

"Even if he spares us, which I highly doubt, you can be guaranteed that he'll send a horde of Dragons to burn this place to the ground."

None of the denizens of the city—them included—would even have any time to recover.

"We could escape within that moment of grace, couldn't we? There are secret paths that—!"

"The Dragons aren't stupid. They are sure to prepare for that." Adonis responded, shaking his head even further as he gritted his teeth. "All of this… it all started with the emergence of that first Commander."

If only they never met that thing, none of this would have happened.

"Are you blaming Sir Ralyks right now? Are you saying all of this is his fault because he killed that Commander?" Belle swiftly spoke up, her brows furrowed very narrowly as she glared deeply at Adonis.
