An Extra’s POV

"The five of you are under arrest, so you better not make a scene!"

Clark's loud voice caused even Felicia to shudder. He seemed genuinely mad at her—at all of them—for what they did.

'S-something's wrong…' She instantly thought to herself with wide-open eyes.

Clark and Belle were supposed to be under her control. They were supposed to be on her side at all times, yet what was going on here?

'Did they somehow break out of my Skill? But how? When?'

"I-I don't understand… where is Justin? He will say something to help us!" Lyvia muttered as she began to cry. "Justin, please come and—"

"Silence!"

"Eeeeeeek!" Lyvia squeaked in response to Brutus' harsh command, now realizing just how terrible the current situation was.

They were surrounded on all sides, and even though only Clark and Belle were guarding the gate, it was clear that they were leagues above Felicia and her group in terms of power and experience.

This was truly the end of the line.

"W-we surrender…" Felicia had to blurt out, falling to her knees without a second of hesitation.

She wasn't stupid enough to further escalate the issue, especially since she didn't have sufficient information. There were still so many things that confused her, and without understanding them, it would be foolish to act.

'We are still Otherworlders, and we have classmates on their side. As long as that's the case, they won't kill us or put us through much harm…' She figured it was safer to enter into custody, obtain all the necessary information, and figure out where to go from there.

One after the other, her allies began to kneel—once again following her lead.

'I'm sorry, everyone.' She thought bitterly to herself. 'Even though you trusted me, I let you down.'
