An Extra’s POV

Chapter 788

Tense silence permeated the entire room.

Rey was now glaring at Adonis, who had a stoic look on his face as he turned to face the former.

They were both on their feet, and it seemed like this dreary atmosphere would last forever. However, someone had to say something, or do something, at some point.

And Adonis took that upon himself.

"I'm also sorry, Rey. I truly am, but… this is a path that I have to walk alone." For a brief moment, a glimpse of the old Adonis shone through.

The smile, the glow in his eyes, and the tone of his voice—Rey felt like he was speaking to his friend.

But… all of that vanished quickly.

"I wish you good fortune in whatever your mission here is, Rey. Though… I don't think any of it matters, ultimately."

After saying all of this, Adonis resumed his departure. In only a few seconds, he had left Rey standing shell-shocked and all alone in his room.

"Haa…"

Rey leaked out a heavy sigh as he collapsed on his bed, mentally and emotionally exhausted—mostly the latter, though.

'... This wasn't how it was supposed to go.'

Right as he thought about this, before he could even dwell on his just-concluded conversation with Adonis, he heard something in his head.

~DING!~

'A-ah!' His eyes slightly widened and he swiftly composed himself, compartmentalizing his surprise so he could properly address the notification he just received.

'Looks like you're finally done settling in, Lucielle.'

As soon as he thought this, a slightly exhausted voice sweetly echoed in his mind.

~Yeah! Mi'ja is quite talkative, but I was finally able to get her to leave me all alone.~
