An Extra’s POV

Chapter 722

'She's perfect!'

Now that he was in her presence once again, Rey became reminded of how he felt the first time he laid eyes on the epitome of beauty.

The Oracle's every frame was perfection itself—from her perfectly beautiful face, to her shimmering blue eyes, and the dress she wore which was adorned with gold and all other forms of jewels.

Her hair was whiter than all else, and the fact that her body was bathed with the brilliant golden rays of the sanctuary around her only increased her appeal. Her very posture was full of elegance, and the way she stoically gazed upon Rey made her appear all the more majestic.

"So, you've returned…" She broke the silence, her eyes trailing to the Elf that Rey tightly had close to his chest.

It was only when she said this that Rey ceased his light gawking and cleared his throat in a slightly unnatural fashion. He felt like an idiot for staring that long, but there was just something about The Oracle that made it almost impossible not to be engrossed in her.

"Yes, so… I brought your Vessel." He raised Ciela high, showing the Elf in all her glory to the epitome of perfection before him.

"I can see that. Now, hand her over…" As The Oracle stretched out her hand to receive Ciela's unconscious body, Rey pulled it away and made a slight glare at The Oracle.

"Esme first. I've done so much already for this deal, so it's only right that I get her first, right?" He knew The Oracle was much stronger than he was, but he also remembered their last battle quite vividly.

'As long as I maintain control over the space around me, it won't be easy for her to grab Ciela from me. And, at this point, there's no need for her to refuse the deal since I'm in her domain with the prize.'

Just as Rey expected, The Oracle gave in.

"Fair enough." She said, moving away from Rey as her lips parted a second time. "Follow me."

Without wasting any time, Rey thrust his body forward and trailed behind the flowing hair that danced behind The Oracle.
