An Extra’s POV

Chapter 754

Tense silence filled the room.

It was clear that the natives of H'Trae heavily disliked Rey's plan, as well as his perspective on the matter at hand. Who could blame them? The experience that humanity had with the denizens of the South were far from pleasant. Besides, they already had a somewhat more preferable alternative in the form of a mutually beneficial alliance with the human nations scattered across the lands.

Yes, the might of the Giants and the Technology of the Dwarves would be far more preferable compared to their current options, but the risks associated with that were also worth considering.

The Royal Council currently didn't think they could take that chance.

"If I may offer some kind of compromise…" Ater slowly raised his hand, instantly quelling the silence in the hall.

All turned to look at his smiling demeanor, causing his grin to broaden further.

The eyes they used to look at him were less of skepticism, and more of nervous curiosity. After all, Ater was the one largely responsible for the damage control following the matter with Dagon, and also the restructure of the Capital.

He was already recognized as a brilliant individual, and it only added more accolades to Rey, since the latter was his master.

Hence, Ater's words could not be ignored.

"Why don't we send a small, elite team to offer an alliance to the Giants and Dragons—preferably Otherworlders. That way, the risk of loss is minimized, and chances of success are higher."

Unlike the humans of this world, the Otherworlders were incredibly powerful.

They were strong enough to fight Dragons—the strongest race in all of H'Trae. That meant, of course, they could hold their own against other races—Dwarves and Giants included.
