An Extra’s POV

Ater had told Rey that the last member of the team was a surprise.

Since the latter liked surprises, despite being curious about who would be recommended, he decided to wait until the day of departure to find out.

All Rey knew was that the person was a woman.

And so, upon seeing Yuri and Kara approach him at full speed, he had no idea who Ater was trying to recommend or if this was simply some prank that was being pulled on him.

It seemed obvious which one was the choice, but Rey knew his Familiar had a twisted sense of humor at times.

'If that's the case, this isn't funny.'

~FSHUUU!~

Yuri came to a sharp halt almost as soon as she neared the group, creating a dust cloud that nearly hit everyone. However, Esme dispersed everything with wind the moment the cloud appeared.

'Oh?' Rey stared at her with a smile, and she gave him a thumbs up. 'Nice!'

He wouldn't have been affected regardless, and he would have actually prevented the dust cloud from hitting anyone. Still, the fact that Esme took the initiative first was impressive.

"Huuu! That was quite the ride, wasn't it, Lady Kara?" Yuri said with her bright, cutesy smile.

Rey knew not to be deceived by that look, though. The girl before him was a killing machine, and he had confirmed this with his very eyes.

Even apart from what he saw, after hearing certain stories from members of the Reaper Group—including Rebal and Asher—he was convinced that this girl felt nothing when decimating her enemies.

Her kind of skewed perspective was dangerous to people like him.

"Y-yesss…" Kara seemed lightheaded as she dismounted from Yuri's back, stumbling a few steps as she struggled to adjust her glasses.
