Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 134 Damian and the three mystic orbs. Part-2.

[Ding! The mana in the surroundings is becoming more chaotic!]

[Warning! The chaotic mana can cause dangerous magical phenomena to manifest!]

What Rio didnʼt know was that not only he but everyone had been teleported away randomly from their original place.

The micro-drones spread out and kept watch on everyone, though.

Raji was not at all surprised by this sudden turn of events. In her younger days, she had seen such a strange phenomenon many times already. Thus, she didnʼt bother meddling with it.

She thought this might serve as a great experience for the students later.

…

Outer area, Foggy hills.

Lia looked around her in shock. A few seconds ago, she was standing beside Riya and helping her protect against the chaotic mana, and now she stood here in the midst of nowhere.

Everywhere she looked, her vision was blocked by dense fog.

[Pick up that girl, Riya. She fainted due to the protection being undone for a few seconds!]

Hearing Kaiʼs voice, Lia hurriedly bent down and picked up Riya, who was lying flat on the ground.

Kai put his protection on her again and helped her stabilize.

[Thankfully! She is still okay. If we were ten seconds late, it would have been difficult to save her!]

[But well, her sister could save her anytime for sure, though…]

Riya was healing Fade before being teleported. When the teleportation happened, Kaiʼs protection got undone, and Riya faced the brunt of the chaotic mana head-on, causing her to faint immediately.

(Random Info dumps.)

All healers below S-rank are fickle and weak beings. But when they reach the standard 100 stat points by breaking through the racial limits during the S-rank ascension, it means that even the weakest S-rank healer has all stats at least at 100.

Reaching S-rank and breaking through your racial limits is not childʼs play; the current humanity has billions of people, yet there are still only around 40 S-rankers in the whole human race.

The S-rankers may seem weak in front of the SS-rankers who dominate the whole world, but S-rankers are also not to be underestimated.

While SS-rankers are capable of destroying the planet and traveling in space without any fear of radiation or anything, S-rankers are capable of carrying out destruction at the level of a natural disaster or even higher.

Shattering mountains and dividing the sea in one attack is the capability of an S-ranker.

…

After a few minutes of stabilizing the mana in her body, Riya opened her eyes slowly.

Lia put her down on the ground.

Riya stood and looked at the surroundings in confusion.

”W-where is Link?” (Riya)

Lia rolled her eyes at Riyaʼs thought process.

ʼGirl, you just dodged death barely, and the first thing you ask is about where is your boyfriend!?ʼ (Lia)

Lia shook her head and replied.

”We seem to have been teleported away due to a random magical phenomenon… perhaps itʼs one of the trapping methods of this dungeon…” (Lia)

”A magical phenomenon occurs when the mana in the area is chaotic and extremely violent… just like this fog…” (Lia)

”This fog looks similar to a normal fog formed off moisture, but no, this one is made of condensed mana….” (Lia)

Lia had a solemn look on her face as she said:

”Mana is considered a nourishing and gentle energy, and it is beneficial for the growth of awakeners, but as they say, too much of something is not always good…” (Lia)

”This dense mana is like literal poison for a living creature...” (Lia)

Lia glanced at the dense fog around them and thought:

ʼIf not for the protection of Kaiʼs spirit barrier, we both would have fainted and most likely would have gotten eliminated from this test…ʼ (Lia)

ʼMoreover, if some ordinary A-ranker or below individual had raided this dungeon, they would most likely die too…ʼ (Lia)

Lia shook her head and said:

”This dungeon is much more dangerous than a normal A-rank dungeon…. Itʼs at least at the level of a pseudo-S rank dungeon…. Now we know why they didnʼt send regular A-rank raid parties here….” (Lia)

”It would be better to regroup with the other party members; that way we will have a better chance at conquering this dungeon…” (Lia)

ʼAs long as Rio and Link are there, I donʼt think itʼs not possible to conquer this dungeon…ʼ (Lia)

(Unknown to Lia herself, she had already started to see Rio and Link as capable and strong individuals who could break out of any dangerous situation.)

Hearing Liaʼs remarks, Riya rolled her eyes in confusion.

”I-is that so…” (Riya)

Everything Lia explained about the teleportation and magical phenomenon went directly out of Riyaʼs mind, and she didnʼt understand a single thing from it.

The only thing she understood was:

ʼLink is not here, sigh~ʼ (Riya)

…

ʼCan you use mana detection, Kai? Which way should we go?ʼ (Lia)

The cat sitting on Liaʼs shoulder shook her head at Liaʼs question.

[No way! the mana here is too chaotic unless itʼs an S-ranker or above, none can use mana detection in this place!…]

ʼIs that so…ʼ (Lia)

ʼSigh~ it seems we would have to go on a random path then-ʼ (Lia)

Just when Lia was thinking about going towards a random path, Kaiʼs voice sounded in her head.

[Hmm, I detect an A-ranker aura approaching us at a fast speed… this is strange… get ready to defend, kiddo!]

[Itʼs someone malicious; you would have to fight a difficult fight…. Now that itʼs even closer, I can sense that itʼs a peak A-ranker!]

[Look at your left and put up the spirit barrier!]

At Kaiʼs advice, Lia immediately unsheathed her sword ʼAmbient Silverʼ and put the spirit barrier to protect herself from any incoming attacks.

Lia pushed Riya behind her to protect her from harm.

Riya had a confused face at Liaʼs sudden actions, but she didnʼt question her decisions.

Although not as much as Link, Riya still trusted Lia a lot. (Lia had saved Riyaʼs life before during the final exam event. Ch-74)

[Here it comes!]

At Kaiʼs warning, a sudden disturbance occurred in the fog ahead of Lia, and a person in tattered clothes walked out with a wide grin on his face.

The man had blue hair with a brownish tint in it. He looked to be in his late 30ʼs and he had a strange-looking grimoire in his hand.

”Ohohoho! I thought it was a weak monster wandering around in the fog, but hoho, but I didnʼt expect to see two young beautiful fairies wandering around in this fog!” (???)

The man had a wide and cheeky grin on his face. He looked at Lia and Riya with wide eyes, and his grin widened even further.

Lia frowned and pointed her sword towards the man.

”Who are you? And what are you doing here? How did you get inside this dungeon without permission?” (Lia)

Lia was more bewildered at the fact that a mere A-ranker was able to enter this dungeon under the watch of an SS-ranker like Raji standing guard outside.

”My name is Damian, Damian FrostFlake; people call me the ʼIce Rain Damianʼ… (Damian)

Damian gave Lia a strange look and said in a confused tone:

”What do you mean…why I am here?... I am a fellow awakener who is raiding this dungeon… In fact, how did you get inside, while my party is still raiding this dungeon!?” (Damian)

(According to the Alliance laws, only one party can enter a dungeon at a time; this is to avoid conflict between the people and reduce the chances of infighting occurring between the awakeners. You would be charged with 3 years in jail if you did such a thing without proper permission from the alliance.)

Hearing the man questioning her, Liaʼs frown widened even further, she condensed the spirit magic on her sword, and she was ready to attack at the momentʼs notice.

”Stop lying, an SS-ranker is guarding the gate outside, and we were the ones who were sent to conquer this dungeon at the permission of an SS-ranker; you are clearly trespassing!” (Lia)

”Confess your sins immediately and tell the truth, or you are dead meat!” (Lia)

Liaʼs aura covered her whole body, and her hair and pupils turned silver. Two silver wings appeared behind her, and the chaotic mana in the surroundings was scattered away by her mere presence.

”W-what!? How can a B-ranker have such a strong aura!? What the! Who are you, girl!?” (Damian)

Damian hurriedly brought out an official document from his space ring.

”See this! This is the proof that I have permission to raid this dungeon! So stop making a fuss, little girl! I donʼt want to fight a kid!” (Damian)

Hearing Damianʼs remarks, Lia calmed down a little; she stretched her hand out and snatched the paper from Damianʼs hands.

A frown appeared on Liaʼs face after looking at the document.

ʼThis is indeed a genuine dungeon raid ticket… w-whatʼs going on here?ʼ (Lia)

Seeing the document, only one thought came to her mind:

ʼDid perhaps Ms. Raji send someone over after us, or was this person here beforehand? But how could an SS-ranker like Ms. Raji make such a clumsy mistake of forgetting about the fact that this dungeon was already under raid… strange…ʼ (Lia)
