Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy



TAP! TAP!TAP!TAP!

The gentle sound of footsteps echoed as Ami entered the area.

Words choked in her throat witnessing the ground filled with dismembered corpses along with students protected by blood shields.

Looking for the perpetrator, her eyes fell on the blood-soaked Harris who, pinching the pinned-down man's throat with his index finger and thumb, pulled out the man's vocal cords without a single change in his expression.

Ami closed her eyes, unable to bear the gruesome scene. She might be an expert killer but that doesn't mean she was comfortable with watching the live telecast of torture.

Inwardly, she cursed herself for letting this man know about the situation. If not for the desperate situation, and not having many people to put her trust in, she wouldn't have informed this guy.

This guy might look like a sweet innocent man but once his temper acts up, only God knows what he would do.

At the age of 19, when this guy had not started his reign of terror, even confronted the Emperor of Ralph Empire and she was also present on the scene.

This guy was eating something but a soldier pushed him to clear the area due to the ongoing parade of the Emperor Of Ralph.

Angered by the incident, he grabbed over the splat food and threw it at the Emperor when he passed through thus creating a situation of panic.

If not for his status of winning The Tournament, and achieving many things at a young age, he would have been executed that day.

Ami sighed remembering the incident that forced him to back down and lose his powers.

'If he was still out there, filthy organisations like Omen would not dare to rise.'

Many may not know but this guy abhors evils, especially the self-centred hypocrites and because of this, he destroyed many Churches that were breeding evil practices.

"Harrisss!"Ami screamed, stomping her feet.

"Oh! You are here."Harris casts a cheeky smile.

"What the hell are you doing Harries? Why are you wasting time torturing them instead of saving others?"

"I have already gotten rid of the filth of four safe zones and you have taken down two. The rest will be left to the team. Many students are isolated and have gone here and there for which a search party is needed."Harris muttered nonchalantly as he walked down the pile of corpses.

"You…You."Ami's expression flushed with anger.

"Calm…Ami…Cal…"

"Wait did you see Lucas?"Ami asked with a frightened expression.

"Lucas…Hmm.."Harris fell into deep thought for a moment.

Contemplating deeply with a serious expression, he answered"I don't know."

Harris shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

"You don't care about him…What if?"Ami swallowed her words as she saw Harris laughing crazily.

"Haahahaa!"

"Ami, let me tell you something."

"He had the least chance of dying or getting kidnapped."

Ami blinked her eyes in confusion.

"He might look weak and kind.."

"But remember one thing."

"Good and kind kids like him are most frightening when they give up being good."

"He might look weak, but he is a simple monster. When pushed to the extreme, the ferocity of his retaliation is not something everyone could do."

"He is a mad lad."

Ami looked down for a moment and grumbled.

'It seems this bastard has affected Lucas's senses of reasoning.'

"He is still a kid, Harris. He can't fend off the stronger ones."

Harris paused in his steps for a moment.

Giving Ami a menacing look, he said"If he can't even save himself even after I taught him many things, he deserved to be kidnapped."

"Instead of him, look for Charles. He is on the hit list and I did not find him anywhere."Harris spoke as he passed through her.

Harris looked at his trembling hands and shook his head. His condition had worsened.

'I need to suppress this sickening feeling of insanity.'

Ami glanced at Harris back in disbelief.

A single thought ran through her mind.

Cruel...

He is cruel not only to himself but even to his students.

"I need to look for them."

"And you take care. Don't you dare wreak havoc?"

.......

Through the bloodied vision, a certain memory flashed before his eyes.

The way of battles is not just to win against your opponent. What's more important than winning is fulfilling the honour of a fighter.

That's what martial artists preach however reality is always different...

"Sir Harris, what if one day, I encounter an opponent of a realm above me? Escaping is not always possible, and the enemy might be hell-bent on destroying me."Lucas asked solemnly.

"In a higher realm, it's difficult. But believe me, miracles always happen."Harris smiled.

"There are times when one has to face an opponent higher than yourself where you can't back down no matter what."

Squatting down, he lowered his face to maintain eye contact with Lucas.

"Lucas, according to you what is the most frightening enemy one can encounter."

"One who is evil or a madman."

"That is partially correct."

"But there is someone beyond that."Harris then moved closer and whispered into Lucas's ears baffling him.

.....

'I can't inhale, I can't exhale.'

'Something seems to be stuck in my chest. My body feels hot. My mind seemed to stop functioning.'

The bloodier vision disappeared.

The entire world then turned white in his eyes.

Various thoughts flowed inside his mind interfering with his thought process. When everything became normal he found himself laying on dirt coughing blood.

Lucas, on moving his tongue, tasted soil particles and gravel in his mouth.

Extending his hand, just as he supported his body to prop up, something whizzing in the air came straight at him.

TASH!

The man before him slapped his cheek and then kicked him to the ground.

"Boy lay low."

"You should know your place."

He commanded like a haughty Lord but seeing Lucas lashing his hands and feet like fish who had just been taken out of the water, his anger flared up.

Lowering himself, he pulled Lucas's hair.

"Ahhh!"

A burning sensation coursed through his scalp, which was followed by another slap.

SLAP!SLAP!SLAP!SLAP!SLAP!

"I thought you were weakling. But it seems you are a tough nut to crack."

"Your mother seemed to have bred you well."

"Look into my eyes."

"Tell me, what are you proud of?"

SLAP!

Lucas's cheeks swell and he even felt one of his teeth loosened in his socket.

"You are nothing."

"You are just another son of a bitch."

"Seeing your rotten face makes me wonder how ugly is your mother."The man spat on Lucas and strangled his neck.

"You are nothing."

"You are just like me…Just like us."

"Who meant nothing until we joined it?"

"Let me offer you a deal, why don't you sell your mother to me as a slave and father as my servant."

"I would then think about sparing you."

Lucas's eyes turned cold and seeing that, the man was infuriated.

BANG!

Punching Lucas's head, he stomped over his face again and again. Letting him go, he wiped his bloodied hands over Lucas's clothes and got up to see his partner abusing the other kids.

"Tsk..."

"That kid is still holding on well while this one went down easily."

"Useless swine. I controlled my strength and still, you can't hold the candle of a good punching bag."

"You even failed at this."

"If you want to blame, then blame your luck."

Lucas, who was groaning, clenched his fist and bit his lips.

Anger surged in his heart.

At that moment…

He felt something.

It was a strange sensation. Magic which seemed to be dormant started to flow like a wild beast.

His head was dizzy, his face was swollen, his internal was in a mess, his vision was blurry and his body felt sore.

But none of this hurt more than the humiliation he went through just now.

Everyone had pride. Even if he doesn't have much, still there is something that should not be touched.

Everyone had a bottom line that shouldn't be touched. His family had always been his soft spot. He even dares to speak ill of his family.

Since someone dared to touch his bottom line, he swore.

If he was going to die then he would make sure to bring that man with him even if he had to crawl from the very depth of the abyss or offer his soul to the Devil.
