An Extra’s POV

Chapter 587

[Later That Night]

"How boring…"

Rey found himself holding a glass of wine as he glanced around him, soaking in the rich and loud atmosphere that surrounded him.

The grand hall of the royal palace gleamed under the soft glow of countless crystal chandeliers. The vast space was adorned with silk banners and the large windows had pristine curtains.

A majestic red carpet stretched across the polished marble floor, leading to the center of the room.

Nobles and powerful men from across the Alliance mingled with grace and sophistication. Their attire was a lavish display of wealth and status—rich velvet gowns adorned with precious gemstones and elaborate embroidery, and sharp tailored suits with brocade waistcoats and capes lined with exotic furs.

As they conversed, laughter and the delicate clinking of glasses filled the air.

At the side of the hall, a grand banquet table overflowed with an array of sumptuous dishes: roasted meats, exotic fruits, and intricate pastries crafted by only the finest chefs that humanity had to offer.

Servants moved with precision, attending to the guests' every need, offering goblets of rare wines and platters of delicacies.

A soft melody from a string quartet provided a harmonious backdrop, as some people even took to the dance floor in graceful, flowing movements.

Their dance was a reflection of courtly tradition and elegance; still maintaining their dignity with every rhythm made.

Essentially, it was a party for the rich.

'So this is how a Gala is. How do people enjoy these things…?" Rey mumbled while downing some of the wine that sloshed around his cup.

He was currently wearing a black suit—the swallowtail tuxedo kind. He initially thought it would blend perfectly well with this kind of scenery, but now that he was here, he realized that he was way out of his league.

The people present were adorned in several accessories—most of them Enchanted—and it suddenly seemed like he was underdressed for the party.

But Rey didn't care.

'I can't wait for this to end. That way, I can focus more on finding Esme and curing Alicia.'

He hoped to be able to do those two before being dispatched to the front lines to finally confront the Dragons once and for all.
