Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 220 To The Elven Empire! Part-4.

When the spaceship was ready to fly, the ceiling of the gigantic hall slowly opened and the vast clear blue sky appeared in sight.

The bright rays of the sun shined on the metallic body of the spaceship and made it look even more majestic than it already was.

In the excited eyes of the maintenance staff, the spaceship slowly rose from the ground and floated up into the sky like a balloon.

(It is very rare to see this ship fly as it mostly stays still, thus the maintenance staff is already excited to see their masterpiece taking off...)

The whole process was so efficient and quiet that it seemed unbelievable. Such a gigantic spaceship was making not even the slightest bit of noise while taking off. This is the brilliance of technology.

After taking off from the ground the spaceship started to accelerate and head towards its destination at a fairly slow speed.

(Currently, itʼs flying at the maximum speed the most advanced fighter jet could, and this is already quite slow for this spaceship...)

This ʼsuperʼ class spaceship codenamed ʼAdamʼ, is capable of amazing stealth capabilities and it can sneak past the detection of S-rankers quite easily.

But there are always exceptions to this too. It canʼt dodge the detection of beings like Alverto, moreover, even Rio can see it easily due to his ʼTrue immunityʼ.

Exceptions aside, there are barely any races in this world that have the technology to rival this spaceship.

Just looking at this massive war weapon can make the hearts of many enemies feel cold.

...

Inside the spaceship, The Topmost floor.

Link and Riya played happily in the massive field of flowers, Liam and Ellie slept side by side while lying down among those flowers. (All of them came to this flower field after seeing Rioʼs message in the group chat...)

While looking at all this, Rio sipped his tea as he continued to sit on a bench amidst the massive field of flowers.

A small crown made of flowers rested on his head. It was made of various types of flowers and it looked delicate and cute.

This was obviously Liaʼs handiwork, Rio would not have let anyone else touch his head.

In return for the flower crown, Rio brought out his personal tea brewing set from the space ring and made a delicious tea for Lia.

Both Rio and Lia sipped the tea while sitting beside each other peacefully on the bench.

”I am thinking of having a home beside a similar flower field like this... what do you say?” (Rio)

”Yeah, it would be such a nice scenery... we will need to employ a skilled Gardener for taking care of those flowers though...” (Lia)

(These two are already talking like married couples preparing for retirement... just get married already you two!!)

”By the way, which flower do you like Rio?” (Lia)

”Hmm, before meeting a certain someone, I used to like any type of black flowers... but now...” (Rio)

A look of anticipation appeared on Liaʼs face as she heard Rioʼs words.

”But now?” (Lia)

Rio smiled slightly and said in his usual emotionless tone.

”Now I like black Roses specifically... they are kind of rare though...” (Rio)

”Haha, what are you talking about Rio, black Roses? Does naturally occurring Rose even have black color in them?” (Lia)

(Black Roses donʼt exist naturally in this world...)

”Well... even if they donʼt exist, the meaning behind it still remains...” (Rio)

A confused look appeared on Liaʼs face, she knew a little bit about flower language too, but even she knew that black flowers usually mean ʼTragedyʼ.

”What does a black rose mean then?” (Lia)

At Liaʼs question, Rio smiled slightly as he looked straight into her eyes.

”It means, Undying Love... an unwavering commitment...” (Rio)

Hearing Rioʼs answer, a cute smile appeared on Liaʼs face as she blushed at his words.

”I-is that so...” (Lia)

...

Main control room.

A whole team of three hundred people operated the massive spaceship together.

Sitting on a resting bench in the control room, Jin looked quite nervous.

”You look quite nervous, donʼt you have faith in the capabilities of this team which has been specially trained to fly this spaceship?” (Ashtel)

Ashtel appeared out of nowhere and sat beside Jin on the same bench, a usual calm expression hung over his face. He seemed like the type of person who never gets stressed or nervous.

Jin smiled awkwardly at Ashtelʼs question and asked in a doubtful tone.

”Uh, well... I am not worried about this crewʼs operation capabilities, but... I am more worried about how to face so many SS-rankers at the meeting of gods...” (Jin)

”You see... just a year ago I used to be an S-ranker and I knew for sure that I had no hope for advancing further... but now that I have become an SS-ranker all of a sudden...” (Jin)

”I feel kind of unreal and out of place... sometimes I doubt myself that... am I really worthy of this power or not?” (Jin)

Hearing Jinʼs stressed tone, Ashtel shook his head and replied in a calm tone.

”Thatʼs normal of course…” (Ashtel)

”Normal?” (Jin)

A confused look appeared on Jinʼs face after listening to Ashtelʼs words.

Ashtel nodded his head at Jin.

”Yeah, itʼs normal to doubt your own worthiness, I doubt myself all the time too… as they say ʼWith great strength comes great responsibilityʼ… it also brings self-doubts too…” (Ashtel)

”Itʼs normal to doubt to yourself that: ʼWill I be able to protect others? Am I really worthy of this strength?ʼ… such thoughts obviously appear in my mind too…” (Ashtel)

Jin was quite shocked after hearing Ashtelʼs words, he had never thought that the ʼStrongest human of this eraʼ, ʼThe Bane of demonsʼ, ʼThe dominator of battlefieldsʼ, ʼA being that is equal to the dragon kingʼ Ashtel Rex would say such words.

Ashtel noticed the shocked expression on Jinʼs face and smiled a little bit.

”Surprised? Yes, I guess anyone would be surprised to hear such words from me… but you know, even if I am being considered a ʼDemi-Godʼ I still retain my humanity...” (Ashtel)

”Which means, I still have all the emotions that a normal human has, I certainly also have the emotion of ʼself-doubtʼ too… thatʼs why I said, it natural for you to feel nervous too…” (Ashtel)

”We are just ʼDemi-godsʼ after all, not real ʼGodsʼ, we still have our humanity... although these emotions are like ʼmortal bindingsʼ that bind us to the secular world…” (Ashtel)

”I think that there is no meaning to our lives without these ʼconstraintsʼ and ʼemotionsʼ… those who donʼt have these ʼemotionsʼ are just heartless and cold machines of ʼdestruction and deathʼ…” (Ashtel)

Ashtel raised his head and stared at the vast blue sky through the nearby window as he said.

”You should be proud of these emotions... they are what makes you ʼHumanʼ…” (Ashtel)

…

The lower area of the spaceship.

The lowermost floor of the spaceship has a small room whose walls are all made of glass.

You can see the ground from this room and enjoy the scenery below as the spaceship flies over it from above.

”Whoa! The spaceship is flying over the ocean right now! And itʼs so fast!” (Fade)

An excited look hung over Fadeʼs face as he stared at the sea below, through the glass walls.

”I-I feel kind of scared standing on this glass…” (Kira)

”Haha, you are such a scaredy cat Kira! Look! This glass is quite strong! Even though I jumped on it, it didnʼt break!” (Fade)

Kira looked at Fade who was jumping up and down excitedly with a look of concern.

”H-hey, calm down, if it really breaks, we will be in trouble…” (Kira)

Just when Kira was about to catch Fade with her right hand to drag him out of the room, a strange crest appeared on the back of her hand and it started to shine bright red.

”Ugh!” (Kira)

A groan of pain leaked out of Kiraʼs mouth as she felt that the crest was burning and hurting her hand.

Fade also noticed this sudden change and asked Kira in a concerned voice.

”H-hey, are you okay, Kira?” (Fade)

Before Fade could figure out what happened, the strange-

looking crest on Kiraʼs hand disappeared instantly and her hand stopped hurting.

A smile returned to her face and she said in a gentle tone.

”Nothing, I am okay… this is an ancestral crest of our family, no big deal…” (Kira)

”Oh, i-is that so…” (Fade)

What Fade did not know was that the crest that appeared on Kiraʼs hand was strangely similar to one of the crests that were recorded in the book that James gave to Lia before she left.

”We should leave this place now… we donʼt wanna get in trouble after all…” (Kira)

”Yes, letʼs go and visit the cafeteria next, I am feeling kind of hungry now…” (Fade)

After the two came to an agreement, they held each otherʼs hand and left the room together.

Time slowly passed and after a few hours of wait, the spaceship finally arrived near the borders of the Elven empire.
