Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 32 Link, Back To Senses...

Just as Riya was about to fell from the tree, Link immediately caught her hand and tightly clenched it.

”I have caught you, donʼt worry…” (Link)

Although it took huge efforts for him to finally drag her upward. After a few minutes of efforts Riya was standing again on the branch with lingering fears. She looked at Link with a scared face and a bit of guilt that she ignored Linkʼs warning:

”t-thanks…” (Riya)

”Be careful in the future…” (Link)

.

.

Suddenly Link got up and instantly looked around to observe the situation. He found that currently he is in the healerʼs care and is lying on a bed. Just as he was about to get up and go out, the gate of the room opened and a nurse came in.

When she looked at Link, she was immediately shocked:

”Yo-you wake up already!?”

The nurse immediately ran out after screaming this sentence, Link was immediately puzzled seeing this reaction from the nurse. He frowned a bit from annoyance, but he still decided to wait for someone to show to explain about what is going on here.

ʼIt seems due to using mana overload my body is still in a state of weakness.ʼ (Link)

Then Link tried to remember the things that happened during the battle. Although right now his head hurt when he tried to think too much, he still tried to remember everything. This headache is also temporary and will go away after he recover in one or two days.

If it was anyone else who had used Mana overload, he would have ended up dead or have been in coma due to brain damage. Yet here he is, you can understand why talent is so important in this world. (Yet thereʼs no accurate way to measure it in this world.)

ʼI donʼt know what happened to Riya, she suddenly disappeared during fight, just before the guy named Rio came. I will have to investigate more, in order to find about it…ʼ (Link)

Just as Link was busy thinking his next plans suddenly the gate was rudely burst open, a beautiful and cute looking girl entered the room she immediately came near Linkʼs bed and her eyes were filled with tears.

”yo-you are finally awake, Link, i-I was so worried!” (Riya)

”ye-yeah, I am awake… are you alright too?” (Link)

”Even now you are worrying about me… sob..sob.. i-I am okay…” (Riya)

”Itʼs a relief then, sigh~” (Link)

”What about you! Are you uncomfortable anywhere?” (Riya)

”Are you hungry? I will made food for you personally if you want!” (Riya)

”They said that you hurt your arm, does it hurt?” (Riya)

”And why are you not lying on the bed!? the healer said you have to rest properly!” (Riya)

Link suddenly felt his head spin from the sudden rain of questions, yet he can only smile bitterly and answer all these questions one by one. He knew that this girl just canʼt help herself from talking too much.

Once she started talking, she can continuously talk for hours without giving others a single chance to say anything at all. Link has always thought that if Riya learns music, she can become one of most famous rappers, her talking speed is just too remarkable.

In the end, Link didnʼt mind her annoying behavior and just let her continue as she pleased. She is just concerned about him, thatʼs all. He put this matter at the back of his mind and heaved a sigh of relief.

ʼAt-least, sheʼs safe.ʼ (Link)

As the two were busy talking several healers came together and started to examine Linkʼs body. They were surprised to find that Linkʼs body which was fatally wounded just one day ago has already recovered to half and shows tendency of recovering even now.

With this speed of recovery, the healers conclude that Link can be discharged in three days at most. The healers advised Link to take more rest and after giving careful instructions they left to see other patients eventually.

After asking from Riya, Link found out that they are currently in the Healerʼs office of the academy and only one day has passed since Link fainted. The staff is still busy repairing the destroyed areas.

Some of the teachers are dispatched to investigate the reason behind this incident. While some of the teachers are sent to deal with media and other possible problematic factors. Even the principle of the academy Raji Croft herself has announced that a thorough investigation will be conducted about this incident.

Coincidentally, Raji was not in the academy at the time when all this happened, otherwise she could have rushed to the area in a matter of seconds using the power exclusive to SS ranked individuals. The power to open their own portals, which can be used to travel through space, to places where you have once gone before as long as that place still exists.

Although this skill has the condition that you must have gone to the place atleast once in order to open a portal to that place. Yet, this skill is too overpowered and can even provide great help in battles besides how cool it is. Imagine an enemy targeting you and the next moment you are behind him with the help of the portal. (Tell me in comments, what would you do, if you get this power?)

Link also asked Riya about how she escaped and Riya said that she donʼt know she had already fainted when Link was concentrating the surrounding mana on him to attack that bad person.

She said that, the when she woke up, she found herself in the healerʼs office too. But she was totally fine and thereʼs wasnʼt even a single scratch on her.

Just as Link and Riya were having a good time talking to each other an unwanted visitor entered the room. With her entering the room, the surroundings became a bit cold and the temperature dropped a bit.

The woman seemed to be in her late twenties, she has beautiful white hair and light blue pupils. Snow flakes seemed to be spinning around her. Her aura alone was enough to tell that she is a very strong powerhouse. Her beautiful face is having cold expressions. The perfect image of a cold personality type.

She slowly and gracefully came towards Link and looked at him for a second:

”You are indeed worthy of being an SS ranked personʼs son, you killed so many B rankers and even an A ranker yet you were able to recover so fast. I am now even more certain that my choice of having you engaged with Riya was really right.”

Her voice is extremely cold and devoid of any emotions, which can make someone wonder if she is being friendly or is and enemy. But after looking at her Link didnʼt say much and just nodded his head silently.

ʼEvery time I see her, she is always same, devoid of any emotion…ʼ (Link)

As for Riya, nothing can stop her from talking:

”Oh! Sister you are here! I was really frightened!” (Riya)

Without any hesitation, Riya directly jumped on the women and surprisingly the cold woman did not reject her and just shook her head helplessly. As if this is a common occurrence to her.

”Link and Riya both of you will be under the care of the academy for a few days, I will send someone, if you need something you can contact me later.”

”Okay!” (Riya)

”Okay.” (Link)

After she left the place Link heaved a sigh of relief in his mind.

ʼRiya is always so casual around her, its really hard to believe that, Riya can talk to the greatest Frost mage in human race without tensing up.ʼ (Link)

After Riya left Linkʼs side, he finally had time to look at his status. When he was fighting there has been so many notifications popping up, he directly ignored them at that time. But now he can finally look at the status. (Every awakened in this world have status but only Fade have a system with advanced functions like Shop, appraisal and Exp etc.)

[Name: Link Rex]

[Class: Martial Artist]

[Rank: C+] [Max Rank Potential: SSS+]

[HP: 2500/8000] [MP: 200/1200] (currently recovering)

[STR: 50/100] [SPE: 50/100] [AGI: 50/ 100] [DEF: 50/100] [INT: 50/100]

[Talent: Martial Aptitude (SSS), Enhanced Vitality (SS)]

[Techniques: Basic Martial Arts(C+), Dragon Arts (C+)]

[Ultimate Skill: Extreme comprehension(B+)

[Skills: Body Enhancement(C+), Draconian Movement Arts(C+), Dragonʼs Aura(C)]

[Passive Skills: Fast Recovery (SS)]

[Evaluation: You have enough talent to make even heavens envious of you, due to which you will be targeted several times and you will always be facing bad luck.]

Looking at his status Link canʼt help but smile, he knew that he was a genius ever since he awakened. Others didnʼt need to tell him, as long as he is given enough time he can develop and become strong enough to even surpass his own father.

With his talents it wouldnʼt be a dream to do so. He has enough talent to become the very first SSS ranked individual in this world, this will a huge achievement. Not to mention he will be the strongest but will also be able to control the whole world including all the races in this world. Even dragons will have to bow down to him at that time.

What he didnʼt knew that this was all just his pipe dream, with Fade and Rio here, he would not be the only one becoming an SSS ranked.

But one thing is for sure in this world. As long as you put enough efforts you will be able to achieve everything in this world. The premise is you should have sufficient strength for achieving what you want. There would not be free food after all. You have to work in order to get it done.

Even someone who have low talent can advance to high ranks as long as you train for years diligently. Although your speed of advancement will be slow compared to prodigies like Link and anomalies like Rio but you can do it as long as you work hard enough for it.
