An Extra’s POV

"Two months? Are you serious?!"

Rey's eyes were wide open as he heard those words from Ater. He had expected a few days—perhaps one or two weeks tops—but this new revelation was a complete subversion of his expectations.

"Well, two months and about three weeks, but yes…" Ater added, a strained smile planted on his face.

The seated boy's eyes turned even more bloodshot as his Familiar added more fuel to the fire.

'That means I've spent over six months in H'Trae, and… wait, that's not the most important thing right now!'

He didn't have a sense of urgency before, since he wanted to take his time to fully unpack and process everything that had happened to him, but now?

Now he could feel his heart racing like crazy.

Jumping to his feet in an instant, he didn't waste any time before activating all of his Passive Skills in order to gear up for what would come next.

The moment he did so, though—

"A-ah…"

—Everything around and about him changed forever.

At first, it felt like something was surging through his body, like currents of electricity, fused into his very being. He soon found those to be the cells within his body.

He was connected to every last one.

His mind expanded beyond what he previously perceived as normal, and he was perfectly with sync with every facet of his body.

Not only did he feel much stronger than before, but his perspective on everything within and without was completely altered.

Rey could see the world from a 360 degrees angle, having complete awareness of his surroundings—and this was without his Domain Skill activated.

He felt everything—from the tension of the air, to the particles that floated around him. Every detail in the room was burned into his memory and perfectly registered, and he processed everything within a tiny fraction of a moment.

The further away things were, the less details he had of them, but everything within the room was completely assimilated into his mind.
