"Rhys Wilder, please look here!"
"Mr. Wilder, care to comment on something regarding the Sylas West incident!?"
"Are you secretly a Noble!?"
"Some people are claiming your videos are fake. What do you have to…"
It was only his 2nd Exploration, and yet as his bus returned to the Station, it was immediately bombarded and mobbed by dozens of people waving their microphones and cameras. Rhys would have probably run away if this had happened just days ago, but now, even as the bright flashing lights drowned his eyes, he did not even waver for even a single second and just casually stepped down the bus.
And as he saw all the cameras being pointed at him, Rhys felt a weird feeling growing from inside him — it was almost as if… he was actually starting to like the feeling of being in the center of it all. Of course, he wouldn't go as far as fully showing his face or acknowledge them by waving his hand, but he did not shy away from them at all.
