Chapter 552: Consequences Of Privilege [Pt 1]

'I'm worried…'

Rey's face still had the same stoic demeanor as he had been displaying since he got a grasp of what was happening around him. His heart was still, and he didn't look the least bit concerned about anything.

Not about his classmates, Esme, or the other person he couldn't afford to think about at the moment.

His mind was still, and his body acted accordingly.

But somewhere within him—perhaps one could call it his soul or conscience—Rey knew he was being dishonest.

'A decent perk of this new body is that I feel fully connected to myself, so I can choose to halt natural reactions that may cause me to lose myself. But, I suppose that is also quite disadvantageous…'

After all, he was more connected with himself more than ever, so he knew this was all false.

Still, he couldn't afford to let it go.

… Not yet.
