Chapter 1: [Inkfinity Dex] System

The movie set was alive with restless and disarrayed movements.
It was a modest production, a mid-budget film of a second-time lead actor and a senior director who had a hit-and-miss career.
The crew moved hurriedly, adjusting lights, rearranging props, and shouting instructions to anyone within earshot.
"Extras, take your positions!" The young assistant director instructed while the director was discussing something with the cinematographer behind the camera lens.
As if on cue, a handful of people in business attire moved to their designated spots.
Among them was a young man who stood out - not because of anything dramatic, but because he carried himself with a quiet ease and uninterestedness.
His name was Regal Seraphsail - 23 years old.
Next to him, another extra stationed himself near the door, rigid and straight-backed like someone playing the part of a junior employee fresh out of college.
Regal, however, remained still, his sharp gaze roving over the room as he tried to take it all in.
