An Extra’s POV

Chapter 747

"Haaa…"

As the cool wind flapped against his face, and the surrounding scent entered his nostrils and filled his lungs, Rey found himself smiling as he looked down on the City that was underneath him.

"... It's good to be back!"

Here he was—back in the Capital—completely enamored by the City he had lived in for most of the time he lived in H'Trae. The modern landscape was far different from that of the Elves, and the mere ambiance reminded him the most of home.

Yes, even though the Capital of the United Human Alliance was medieval in more ways than one, it still had hints of advanced civilization that made Rey leak out a smile once again. He missed this place.

"Everything seems to be the same…" Rey mumbled, even looking at the area where Ater had supposedly had a bit of a skirmish.

'Looks like he fixed it before I came. I told him I'd do it, and yet… haa…' Ater was too much of a perfectionist when it came to serving Rey, which made it difficult for the latter not to rely on him, or even doubt his true intentions. Still, Rey had already decided on what to do with him—at least for the time being.

'I just have to be more measured in my instructions, making sure he doesn't do anything behind my back this time. I should also put him under constant surveillance…' Rey stopped his dreary thoughts, since it was ruining the refreshed mood he was in.

'Right now, I shouldn't be thinking about Ater, or anything of the sort.' There was only one thing that was supposed to occupy his mind, and as he stared at the Royal Estate, the name of that person kept flashing in his head.

'I've been putting it away for days, but it's time. It's time I saw Alicia.' He took a deep breath, preparing his heart. He made sure to regulate his heartbeat and also his expression to the point where nothing he felt would be removed by the System.

Sure, his emotions would be dulled in his current state, but at least they wouldn't vanish.

'I can't afford for them to…'

Once Rey was sure that he was ready, he instantly cast Spatial Magic that caused him to instantly vanish from his position—
