An Extra’s POV

[Moments Later]

The group switched locations from Alicia's room to a private suite—the new residence of the Otherworlders.

As one would expect from the heroes that were now officially recognized by the Alliance and all of its citizens, it was pristinely designed and spacious.

It had a base color of silver-white, with gold linings and purple fabric as designs. There were murals and structural choices that made the entire area pop out more. A glowing chandelier hung high on the ceiling, and a constant aura of royalty oozed in the space beneath it.

Just as in their previous living quarters, there was a common parlor, with each Otherworlder having their rooms.

Rey was shown his room, and it was at least three times bigger than what he previously had. He had to ask if this was how everyone's room was, and they all shook their heads.

"Mister Ater refused to place you on the same level as everyone, so he personally took responsibility for your room."

"I… see…"

Rey couldn't really complain about the room, though.

Not only did it have the kind of bed he always desired, but the fragrance within the space was so good that he felt like he was floating just from taking a whiff. The minimalist design, study desk, and mini-library that were positioned appropriately there were also sublime.

It seemed Ater truly understood his tastes and made sure his room reflected that.

As such, despite the uncomfortable idea of his room being much larger than his friends', Rey couldn't say anything bad about it.

It was perfect for him.

'No one seems to be complaining about it, so… I guess it's cool…' He thought to himself in silence.

He could always blame the decision on Ater while enjoying all the benefits his space had to offer.

'Though, I'm still interested in turning that Grand Calamity Class Dungeon into my fortress.'

It would just take quite the makeover to convert it into a suitable place for him, but the idea still lingered in his mind.
