An Extra’s POV

"Haa…"

Rey collapsed on his bed, feeling the soft bouncy effect on his back as he did so. A warm smile circulated his face as he closed his eyes and recollected a lot of fun aspects of his just-concluded meeting with Alicia.

No, calling it a meeting made it sound too boorish.

They hung out in their dedicated spot—the library—and spoke about tons of stuff. It was beyond fun for him, and he could see that their talks did a lot to cheer Alicia up as well.

'Her Divine Summon killed Billy and a lot of the people in the Capital. It also destroyed so much…' Not many people could see it, but Rey knew full well that Alicia was hurting due to consequences of her actions.

It was a miracle that she could pull herself together and laugh with him.

According to her words:

"There's just something about you, Rey. Being around you just makes me forget all those horrible things. I… don't know what I'd do if I didn't have you."

It made him feel a little guilty for leaving her so he could go to the Dragon Empire, which further raised the difficulty of him telling her about his arrangement with Lucielle. He nearly even postponed it, until he had a reality check with himself.

'I promised myself not to lie to her…' He sighed. 'Still, just as I suspected, she didn't take it too well.'

Alicia wanted to come with him after he brought up Lucielle, but he had to refuse. Despite how much it made his heart bleed, there was no way he could expose her to any kind of danger.

This wasn't the Land of the Elves, or some vacation.

It was the heart of the enemy's domain.

'It's already risky bringing Lucielle along, but she serves a great purpose.' He inhaled deeply, relieved that he was actually able to convince Alicia to drop the issue.
