An Extra’s POV

[A Few Days Later]

"She's late…"

Rey stood at the courtyard, his brows furrowed in annoyance as he constantly beat his feet against the floor in anger while waiting for his partner.

He had been waiting for nearly an hour now, and she still wasn't at their rendezvous point.

It was slowly eating away at his never-ending patience.

Unfortunately, anytime it reached the threshold, all of his anger would vanish, leaving him back where he started—as a patient man waiting.

'Ater and his team already left yesterday. I can't be late on my very first day, can I?' He sighed, both arms folded.

He was all alone in the courtyard too.

An hour earlier, the Royal Council Members, as well as the Frontline Members were all waiting for her. However, upon seeing that their schedule would be affected if they delayed any longer, they decided to head out first.

And so, Rey had to transport them to the battlefield.

He had already gone there a day prior so he could observe the place and make sure it was conducive for Alicia and his other classmates.

Much to his surprise, a lot of preparations had already been put in place for their arrival.

It was clear they were expecting the Otherworlders and Chief Warrior.

'Accommodations and every other thing seem rough, but not terrible. They should be able to make do. After all, it's much better than the Grand Calamity Class Dungeon experience…' He even found himself musing.

Before leaving the battlefield that day, Rey ensured to make his own preparations.
