Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 89 The Generalʼs dilemma...

Bismoil district, Outer area, Near the SSA.

A tall and sturdy wall enchanted with magic and made up of various magical materials surrounds the whole SSA to prevent the beasts from running outside of the area. This not only helps in maintaining the safety of the Bismoil district, but it also helps in better monitoring of the area.

There are only two gates in these walls, one facing towards the north from where these beasts are put inside every three months. The army captures a large number of beasts in the northern border area and transports them here to train the soldiers.

The other gate is the one used for the entry of the soldiers or any other individual who is going to train in this place. There are also several watchtowers on these massive walls. The width of these walls is large enough to make a luxurious house on them. Rumor has it that these walls can defend two full-power attacks from an S-ranker, but no one knows if it is really true or not.

The huge building with the teleportation altar in its basement is close to these walls and is called the Generalʼs residence.

…

…

Generalʼs residence, the meeting hall.

”uh, would it really be okay to set up such a strong monster to fight the students… how about we reconsider it general….”

”I also think that we should reconsider putting that monster in the walls, general. After all even several high ranker squad leaders canʼt fight such a monster alone…”

Several officers can be seen arguing with the general on the difficulty of the test the academy students are going to face. All the officers want to suggest that the difficulty is too high and it should be lowered a little bit. But the general seems to think otherwise.

Hearing all the officers, general Bismoil got up from his seat and walked towards the window. He looked outside while stroking his white beard. Several students from the academy could be seen wandering outside, they seem to be looking at everything curiously.

Looking at those lively and carefree students a smile appeared on the cold face of the general.

”Thereʼs no need to worry about the difficulty of the test…” (General Bismoil)

”But general, they-”

Before the office could say anything the General raised his hand and the officer stopped talking, at this moment all the officers understood the fact that the general has already decided and there was no way he would change his decision.

”The teacher of the students visited a while ago, he delivered a letter from Principal Raji and she has given her orders…” (General Bismoil)

Hearing the name of Raji, all the officers gasped and their pupils widened, getting a direct order from an SS ranker is no small thing after all. In the human empire, the military has a clear ranking system that corresponds to the awakenerʼs rank.

…

(Detail bomb ahead.)

The military ranks are as follows:

Soldier – The lowest rank in the human awakenerʼs army. Anyone who has achieved rank D or below can become a soldier once they pass the corresponding exam.

Squadron commander – Every squadron consists of 1000 soldiers and a squadron commander. A soldier who has reached C rank can become a squadron commander or can directly give the exam to become the squadron commander if you are already a C-ranker at the time of joining the army.

Major- Generally, there are at least 5 to 10 squadrons under a major. You need to be a B-ranker in order to become a Major, there are other factors too, but your strength is the most important in this world.

Lieutenant General – They are directly under the generals of the army and are considered right-hand men of the general. You need to be an A-ranker in order to become a lieutenant.

General – Every general is a very important and influential person. They have immense strength and responsibility. Generally, every district has a general protecting it. You need to be an S ranker to achieve the general rank. There are a total of 11 districts in the human empire and thus there are 11 generals in the army. These 11 S-rankers generally never leave their respective district and are always there to protect in case of emergency.

Any individual who reaches S-rank in the human empire is delivered an official letter by the alliance offering them the post of a general directly if any post out of the 11 is vacant.

The Special ones – This is the highest rank in the military, whenever a new SS-ranker is born, that individual is directly given the privilege of this rank, they have the authority to mobilize the army on their own without taking any order from anyone. They have the authority to start a full-scale war without anyoneʼs consent.

In human society, SS rankers are treated with immense love and respect by the people. They protect the whole race and are like a parent to the whole human race. Each SS ranker bears the immense responsibility to protect humanity from other races. They get the free support of every single being in the human race.

Several major companies sponsor the SS-rankers free of any demand. If an SS –ranker said that he needed money a mountain of wealth would be collected and given to him the very next day, without any demand or complication.

…

(We are back to the chapter.)

Raji or any other SS ranker has the authority to give orders to a general, thus all the officers went silent the moment they heard about Rajiʼs name.

”In the letter, it was mentioned that they will send second-year students to lead the first years in this activity…. Thus, we donʼt really need to worry about the difficulty of the test…” (General Bismoil)

Hearing him say that all the officers heaved a sigh of relief after all the students present here are the pillars of support for the human race, they canʼt afford to lose them unnecessarily.

”You can leave now and prepare to monitor the student properly, we need every detail recorded this is a direct order from the ʼspecial oneʼ….” (General Bismoil)

After hearing this all the officers started to leave one by one and after all the officers left the general looked at the students outside the window and sighed with a complex look on his face:

”I wonder why they would need a video of the second-year studentʼs performance in this test… even though this is an activity planned for the first years…. Something feels off…” (General Bismoil)

”Are they planning on taking the second-year students to ʼthat meetingʼ this year…. Thatʼs quite complicated…” (General Bismoil)

Thinking this far, the general sighed and went on to complete his work.

…

Next Day, Near the Entrance gate of the SSA

Several students are chatting excitedly about their mission:

”Apparently it seems that the second-year students would be leading us in this mission…”

”Yeah, I was shocked when the teacher suddenly announced that the second-years would be here too…”

”Hey, hey, what do you think which senior would lead our group, would it be the ʼBerserk warriorʼ Link or the ʼMad-demon swordʼ Lia… I am getting excited!”

”Heh, in your dreams! Your luck isnʼt that good! You, peasants, donʼt deserve such amazing peopleʼs guidance!”

”What did you say, you wanna fight, hah!”

As the students started to get more and more excited the teacher arrived and reminded them of the instruction one last time.

”Now that everyone is ready move towards the second-year students with the same group number tag on them!”

After the teacher said that, the second-year student appeared one by one from the Generalʼs residence building. All of them have their respective number tags on them. All the first-year students started to look for their respective group leaders excitedly.

The same is true for group 1, they also looked around for a while and found their group leader:

”UH, are you the Berserk warrior Link, the one who was ranked 1 last year?” (Lenn)

”Yeah, I am ranked 1 but, who made that name ʼBerserk warriorʼ… from which angle am I a Berserker…” (Link)

Link looked at the three excited students and shook his head:

ʼChildren these days, sigh~ʼ (Link)

…

…

Authorʼs note

I was planning on putting Lia as the leader of group 1 but then I suddenly had an amazing idea and put Link here for the sake of it.

Todayʼs question- What title would you like to give to these characters?

1. Rio (Expressionless Rio, perhaps because of his expressionless face.)

2. Riya (Healing angel Riya, perhaps because of her healing magic.)

3. Fade (Miracle mage Fade, perhaps because he kills people with miraculous luck.)

4. Kira (The goddess Kira, perhaps because a large number of students consider her their goddess.)

Hidden option:

5. Author (Invisible one, because he becomes invisible for months.)

These are just my opinion you can give them the title you like. Tell me in the comments.
