Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 192 Link likes Mango Juice?

Alliance Oaklum Branch, Outside the Main Building.

”Isnʼt that thing an automatic mana cannon? Why is it placed on the terrace of this building?” (Link)

”Itʼs perhaps because they want to scare people with this…” (Rio)

Hearing Rioʼs reply, Link narrowed his eyes.

”No way, even a mere C-ranker can break that cannon easily, why would they put that thing to defend a place like this…” (Link)

”Thousands of C-rankers, hundreds of B-rankers, and several A-rankers would pass by this place every day after…” (Link)

”Any one of them could deal with it if they want…. If feel like these people are really neglecting the security here…” (Link)

Listening to Linkʼs questions, Rio sipped the juice from his juice-can before saying:

”Well, I donʼt think they really need weapons to protect the place… that cannon might just be for show…” (Rio)

”After all, it is very likely that an S-ranker is stationed here in the building…” (Rio)

”Oaklum is a major port city, it wonʼt be strange if they stationed one or two S-rankers here…” (Rio)

Hearing Rioʼs reply Linkʼs face turned solemn and he nodded his head in agreement.

Link also sipped the canned fruit juice he was holding in his hand and said:

”Sigh~ I wonder how long it will take me to become an S-ranker… recently I feel like my progress has slowed down a lot… ugh..” (Link)

At Linkʼs depressed words, Rio just shook his head.

”Itʼs normal for the improvement speed to slow down once we reach higher realms… thatʼs why focusing more on skills is a better choice in the meantime…” (Rio)

”Yeah… once we are done with this mission, I will put my whole focus on ʼDao Rhythmʼ my proficiency in that skill is still very low…” (Link)

Rio nodded his head and said:

”Well, it took me months to reach my current control over ʼsword intentʼ, you would be able to do it soon too…” (Rio)

ʼIn fact, your progress is already quite fast, if not for the fact that I know beforehand that you are a villain template character, I would have mistaken you to be the protagonist of this world…ʼ (Rio)

In Rioʼs opinion, Link has all the qualities to be considered a ʼProtagonistʼ, if Link was blessed by the heavens instead of Fade, then his speed of improvement would have been even more astonishing.

ʼIf I donʼt use my ʼsoul splittingʼ skill, I donʼt think I can win from him in a fair and square match… it will always end up in a draw…ʼ (Rio)

Rio has sparred with Link many times over the past year, he knew better than anyone else just how difficult it is to land a proper damaging blow on Link.

His defense is too high, which causes a lot of headaches.

Regardless of his personality, Link has a bright future, and maintaining a friendly relationship with him is always a good idea.

”Should we go back now? I feel kind of uneasy leaving Riya all alone in there…” (Link)

Link glanced at the alliance building with an anxious look, if not for Rio, he would have already dashed back into the building.

”Yeah, itʼs about time, Lia might have already finished writing the report by now…” (Rio)

Rio, Link, Riya, and Lia, four came to the alliance-building today, to submit the report, the rest of the party members might still be sleeping at the hotel right now.

While Lia wrote the report, Rio and Link decided to go outside and buy some juice for them all.

Just now both Rio and Link bought the juice-cans and just when they were about to return, the mana cannon caught their eye, so they got distracted.

(The researchers of this world have created guns and cannons that are powered by mana, laser guns plasma bombs, etc. like things also exist in this world… but most of these things are useless against people above C-rank…)

(Awakeners aside, mana guns have a very good intimidating effect on ordinary people, thus the police and other security forces use those weapons to keep the crimes in check…)

(Aside from the awakeners, the security forces rely on these weapons the most to maintain law…)

…

After deciding to go back, Rio and Link entered the alliance building again.

The moment they both entered, all the awakeners and other people consciously gave way to them both.

Several people gossiped and most of the people looked at them both with awe and surprise.

”These two are so young, and they are already A-rankers... I feel like my twenty years of awakenerʼs career is nothing compared to them… ugh…”

”They are both wearing the uniform of the Freya academy… this means it might not be long before we will witness new S-rankers appear…”

”The Freya academy really lives up to its name…”

Ever since Rio and Link became A-rankers, it was inevitable that they would attract the attention of many people.

A-rankers are rare and strong people, to have already achieved this feat while still being a student, they both were bound to become famous.

Regardless of what the people gossiped about, Rio and Link both ignored the voices and entered the lift without hesitation.

Once the gate of the lift closed, a smirk appeared on Linkʼs face.

”Heh, you have become famous nowadays, Rio… ahem! Or should I say, Darkstar Rio, hehe~” (Link)

Rio shrugged his shoulders and replied in his usual emotionless tone:

”Forget about me, you have always been a celebrity since birth, Berserk warrior Link…” (Rio)

”Moreover, I feel like that ʼBerserk warriorʼ title indeed suits you…” (Rio)

Hearing Rio mention his title, black lines appear all over Linkʼs face. Link clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

”When I find the person who gave me this sh*tty name, I will beat the sh*t out of them! Tch!” (Link)

”What if it was Riya who gave you that name?” (Rio)

”Cough!! Cough! Ahem! …. Uh, itʼs a decent name actually, I wonʼt criticize it much.. cough!!” (Link)

Hearing Linkʼs reply, Rio just rolled his eyes, he was astonished at how fast Link could change face without even being ashamed of it.

While the two of them were busy bickering back and forth, the door of the lift opened on the 68th floor of the building, and two of them walked out of the lift.

Walking through the corridor, the two of them arrived in front of a room.

[Waiting Room No-956.]

(Due to spatial manipulation devices, this building is bigger from the inside than it looks from the outside…)

Link opened the door and walked in without hesitation.

”We are back!” (Link)

Link was expecting Riya to say ʼwelcomeʼ but it turned out that she already fell asleep on the nearby couch while nibbling on her favorite candies.

Lia who was writing the report raised her head and nodded at the two of them.

Link walked over to Riya and sat beside her.

”Sigh~ she fell asleep? Even though she was the one who urged us to go and buy some juice… this girl is always so carefree…” (Link)

Seeing that peaceful sleeping face, Link shook his head as he continued to sip the juice from his juice can.

(Fun Fact, Link likes Mango Juice the most! You can also make friends with him with a can of mango juice if he is in a good mood…)

(Coincidentally, The mango flavor candies are Riyaʼs one of the most favorite ones…)

Rio brought out the juice can from his space ring and handed one of them to Lia.

”For you…” (Rio)

Lia was about to reject the offer because she was busy writing the report, but Rio whispered in her ears:

”If you donʼt drink it, I will have to give it to you, mouth to mouth…. Hehe~” (Rio)

”Hmph! Idiot!” (Lia)

Lia had no choice but to take the juice to avoid being embarrassed.

ʼGirl, you canʼt put too much stress on yourself, or I would have to resort to underhanded tactics, hehe~ʼ (Rio)

Ignoring Rio and Lia flirting with each other, Link brought out the cold juice can and lightly touched it on Riyaʼs cheeks.

The cold sensation of the juice can cause a shiver to run down Riyaʼs spine.

And she started to sleep talk all of a sudden.

”Nooo~ these candies are mine~ Link give them back~” (Riya)

Black lines appeared all over Linkʼs face after hearing that.

He stretched out his hand and repeatedly made the cold juice-can touch her cheeks.

Eventually, Riya woke up from that cold sensation.

Her big wide eyes stared at Link and the very first thing she said was:

”Uh, no~ give my candies back Link!” (Riya)

She sat up in shock all of a sudden as she glared at Link.

Link just shook his head in helplessness.

ʼThis is the reason why I always carry extra candy packets on me… they always come in handy…ʼ (Link)

Link brought out a new candy pack from his space ring and handed it over to Riya together with the juice.

”Okay, okay, they are all yours donʼt glare at me with such intense eyes, I am not taking them away…” (Link)

…
