Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 91 Group survival test. Part-2.

Inside the SSA, the western area.

The third day of the survival test.

Three first-year students could be seen sitting near a bonfire, a huge boar is being cooked on the fire. While cooking, the only girl among them looked at the person looking at his smartphone while sitting on the tree branch and said to the other two guys sitting near the bonfire:

"Do you think that guy…. Doesn't plan on doing anything until the end of the test?...." (Npc no1)(I am bad at naming and don't have many good names for every new character so, just make do with any name okay their actual name is something else of course I just don't know cough cough! My cough is acting again cough!)

Hearing the girl, the two other first-years also looked at the black-haired guy sitting on the tree for a few seconds before hurriedly averting their gaze, one of them shook his head and said:

"I can feel an extremely dangerous aura from that guy, just looking at him makes me feel chills….. Even my father who is an A-ranker doesn't give me this pressure… is this guy really just a second-year student…." (Npc no2)

"Well, I think he just doesn't want to do anything at all, other groups might have already progressed to the central area and we are still stuck here even though it's the third day of the survival test…." (Npc no3)

"We are halfway through to the central area but if we want to reach the central area before tomorrow, we will need that guy's help, otherwise it will be impossible…." (Npc no1)

The survival test has three stages in it:

The first stage consists of reaching the central area before the fourth day of the test ends and right now it's already the night of the third day, they only have one more day to reach the central area otherwise they will be eliminated from the test.

Moreover, only the teams that can reach the central with all the members of the group, are eligible to take part in stage two of the test.

The second stage consists of pairing up with the other groups to eliminate the boss monster of this place which would be placed in the central area. All the groups who have passed the first stage can band up and attack the monster together, this stage will test the cooperation ability of the students.

The third and last stage of the test consists of group battles. All the students that will pass the second stage will fight each other and will try to eliminate the first-year students of the opponent group, the group with the most number of first-years left standing will win this test in the end.

"but looking at our condition we can't even finish the first stage of the test, sigh~" (Npc no2)

"By the way what is that guy's name, I don't even know who he is in the first place…" (Npc no3)

"Hmm, I don't remember properly but perhaps it was, something like 'Dark star Rio'…." (Npc no1)

"Why 'dark star' though?" (Npc no2)

"I heard that he is a dark horse who ranked 2nd just below Link the 'berserk warrior Link', no one expected him to be so high in the rankings last year…" (Npc no3)

The guys looked at her with a complicated look on their faces.

"Doesn't that mean this lazy guy is the second strongest of the last year students and can go toe to toe with Link…." (Npc no2)

"Well, that should be true…. Perhaps…." (Npc no1)

….

While the three of them were whispering and looking at Rio every once in a while with strange looks on their faces Rio was extremely busy with a very important thing.

For the past few days, Rio has been busy with a very important thing, right now he is looking at his smartphone projecting the hologram of a book:

"Hmm, this one looks nice…." (Rio)

Looking at the content of the book Rio has a rare smile on his expressionless face.

The title of the book- is "Childhood Album of Lia Silver".

The first page has the photo of baby Lia nibbling on a cookie like a hamster. The second page has the photo of Lia (Loli version) pouting and facing the other way, perhaps it was taken by Lia's father after he made her angry by not giving her a candy.

There are about three hundred pages in this book and there are around a thousand photos of her in this book.

While looking at the photos Rio thought in his mind:

'Lia's maid really is a great angel, she gave this album to me without even asking, I should thank her next time I see her….' (Rio)

Indeed this book was sent to Rio by Lia's personal maid a day before they teleported to the SSA.

Lia's maid Mel sent a video message with the book to Rio, Mel said that she has stolen this book from Lia's locker and sent it to him without asking Lia, Mel had a stern look on her face, and she adjusted her glasses a little and said in a suspicious tone:

"You can use them in any way you want, just don't overdo it, so as not to damage your kidneys…." (Mel)

Rio was dumbfounded by her message but his hands moved unknowingly and saved the book without thinking too much.

Thinking about that, Rio thought:

'Well I have a girlfriend in this life, do I even need to make do with the photos, well, I can keep them for research purposes…. Obviously, I am not a lolicon, I will only just look at the grown-up Lia…..' (Rio)

While looking at the book three days went by and Rio was still looking at the book again and again like it was a treasure, every time he looked at the pictures he had a rare smile on his face. This body which can't feel emotions most of the time seems to have a slight reaction only when looking at her.

All of a sudden a huge tiger with a horn and two bat wings came and roared in the sky while standing at the hill near the bonfire. The first-years panicked while looking at the huge beast which was at least seven meters in height:

"Th-that a winged tiger chimera, and it's an adult one…. It's a B+ rank monster! …."(Npc no2)

"We are finished, the scent of the boar must have attracted it here, w-what do we do now! We can't even run away it can fly and catch us easily!" (Npc no.3)

Just when the three of them were panicking, an emotionless voice rang in their ears:

"So, noisy…." (Rio)

Without the three of them noticing Rio was standing beside them and was looking at the chimera with an expressionless face, his jet-black eyes contained a trace of irritation, after all this noisy beast interrupted his busy work schedule with its annoying and loud voice.

Rio pulled his sword out, and the color of the blade changed to dark black due to the concentration of Rio's mana on it, Rio slashed his sword lightly in the air towards the beast.

[Elemental sword art: Thunder type: Heavenly thunder strike]

The thunder energy produced by Rio's slash went straight toward the beast, it was so fast that it reached the beast in a mere fraction of a second, looking at the thunder arc produced one can feel its immense danger, the air pressure produced by the strike created a huge rift in the ground several surrounding trees in the area were destroyed and with a loud bang of thunder the attack split apart the beast in two along with the hill it was standing on.

The beast had no time to react, and it died in an instant its body organs spewed out and the blood dyed the collapsed hill in red, giving this place a devastating look.

The sound of thunder produced by Rio's sword was so loud that several groups heard it in the SSA, several monsters fled away in panic from this place and those who were not able to flee were crushed by the air pressure produced by this attack.

The three newbies flew away and collided with the trees behind due to the residual air pressure, all of them had shocked expressions on their faces, looking at that valley created by that one attack they understood why there were rumors of Rio being able to fight toe to toe with Link.

If not for the fact that Rio purposely adjusted the angle of the attack, the three of them would have faced even stronger air pressure.

"This guy is insanely strong…" (Npc no2)

While looking at Rio they gulped their saliva and finally understood why they felt strong oppression from this seemingly ordinary-looking guy.

….
