Capítulo 445: A Little Bit Of Venting

Esme wasn't wrong in the slightest.

Rey already realized it, but he really felt like he could be himself around her. 

The first time he transformed to his true self, only with the mask on, in front of her, it was such a subconscious action that he didn't even realize it until she asked if it was really him underneath the mask. 

He had just gotten so comfortable around her.

'Well, I guess she can see right through me…' His smile was hidden under the dark mask, unseen by the girl in front of him.

Before the silence continued for too long, Esme raised up another topic that completely shifted the mood of the conversation.

"Why did you get back so early, though? The meeting didn't take very long, I'm guessing."

As she asked this question, Rey instantly remembered the entire thing that happened in the Guildmaster's office—including how frustrated he felt back then.
