An Extra’s POV

Chapter 699

"Ahh… how fascinating!"

Adrien nearly raised his voice just a few seconds after meeting Emil and hearing the role she played in fooling him. His blue eyes warbled as he stared intensely at the Slime, and his lips were stretched to both ends as he made a broad, toothy grin.

"You're really amazing… one in a kind."

"Indeed, indeed! You get it, don't you?" Emil, who would usually be cold to any outsider who wasn't her Master, became extremely loose and even jovial with Adrien.

Perhaps this was due to the fact that he recognized her greatness and constantly sang her praises. Either way, Adrien didn't stop there.

He kept up his words of admiration, and Emil returned the energy to him. This continued at great lengths until—

"Okay, that's enough." Rey sighed, his voice louder than theirs.

His tone dripped with annoyance despite there being nothing to be really angry. He slightly glared at Adrien, then extended the same to Emil, leaking out another sigh as he shook his head very slowly.

"I think we are getting a bit sidetracked here, don't you think?"

"Eh? Really? But we are getting to know each other, right? Isn't it beneficial to get to know your allies?" Emil responded with slightly defiant words hidden behind her playful tone.

Rey frowned at her, but before he could say anything, Adrien spoke up.

"I agree with Emil. We should get to know each other a little better." "I don't think so." Despite the near consensus in the room, Rey put his foot down on the matter and refused quite vehemently.

"B-but Master—!"

"Return inside me, and don't talk to Adrien."

"Uuuu…" Almost begrudgingly, Emil did as Rey commanded, her black form slithering deep into him until she became invisible to any who looked at him.

A few moments after this were occupied by silence.

Then…

"That wasn't fair, Rey." Adrien said this, but Rey remained silent about his words—as if he didn't know what the boy was talking about.

"Emil is probably lonely without company, yet you would—"
