Reborn as an Extra

VVIP Area.

"That un-dodge-able attack technique... Isn't that a very rare technique in your race, Baneas?..."

Upon hearing Ashtel's confused words, Baneas Oreforge, the representative of the Dwarf race, nodded his head and responded in a proud tone.

"Well, that technique is actually very difficult to learn. First of all, not only do you need amazing intuition and thunder affinity, you will also need to reach rank-A to even start using this ability..."

Baneas paused for a moment before continuing,

"In the past century, none were able to master this ability, as the comprehension capability required to master it is very high... All in all, this technique is useless in the hands of untalented people..."

While saying that, Baneas glanced at Arner and continued with a smile on his face.

"But in the hands of the talented, this ability has great potential..."

Hearing Baneas's words, Ashtel and Ryul both nodded their heads. They both knew about this secret technique, but this was the first tthey were seeing it in person.

Ashtel narrowed his eyes and spoke in a tone of amusement.

"Hmm... this technique is able to involve a 'law' in itself, which is indeed impressive... This kid, Arner, has the potential to reach rank SS in the future..."

Ryul quickly recognized the technique and spoke in a calm tone.

"To be able to control the power of a 'law' at such a young age... Arner is indeed talented; you guys better not waste his potential."

Baneas scratched the back of his neck at their words, feeling quite embarrassed.

As an early-level SS-ranker, he is significantly weaker than Ashtel and Ryul, so Arner's ability to receive praise from the renowned "Ashtel Rex" is truly remarkable and a source of great pride for the Dwarf race.

"You praise him too much; in my opinion, Flash has a better grasp over the 'law' of 'Sword Intent'; I am not sure if this attack will even succeed..."

Ryul responded calmly, shaking his head at Banea's words.

"No, the 'law' that Arner has involved is affecting the whole battle field; unless smashes the whole battlefield with his'sword intent', the damage from Arner's attack will not be reduced much..."

While thinking about this, a smirk appeared on Ryul's face as he continued,

"This kid, Arner, planned out everything quite well; he also took Rio's sword intent into consideration! That's why he used so much mana to cover the entire stadium ground in his 'static field'...."

Even Ashtel nodded his head at that.

"A genius move indeed; even is bound to face strouble now..."

There are very few people who can involve the world's 'laws' in their attacks.

Suse secret techniques to achieve this, and suses 'Sword intent' or other equivalent skills to achieve this.

In his attack, Arner invoked the 'law of confinement'.

He enhanced his technique's damage by sacrificing its confinement power.

Arner didn't have to worry about escaping because a massive SS-rank barrier surrounded the stadium.

Thus, he reduced the confinement power of his 'static field' to near 'zero', and thus his attack's damage improved accordingly.

Now, unless smashed the whole stadium ground with the whole 'static field', he can't dodge this attack.

This is the horror of an attack that involves a "law."

Most awakeners choose not to bother with those who can control 'laws' because they don't want to becinvolved in such troublesattacks.

...

Seeing that had stopped moving, a smirk appeared on Arner's face.

'So you have realized that you can't stop this attack anymore... Even if I faint or die, this attack will still not stop, so it's pointless to attackright now, and it's better to put up defenses...'

The smile on Arner's face widens as he thinks to himself.

In the excited eyes of Arner, the whole static field becbright, showing that it was finally ready to be used.

"This is it, Rio!"

[Secret Dwarven Art: Unstoppable Bane of the Thunder God!]

From the ground beneath Rio's feet, a gigantic beam of condensed thunder shot up, rising at an immense speed.

The beam only stopped after it collided with the SS-rank barrier in the sky.

A massive shockwave spread, and the ground over the whole battlefield cracked in an instant.

That shockwave created a sonic boom that spread widely, causing saudience members to fall off their chairs in shock.

The 'un-dodge-able attack' was indeed an excellent move.

To use this attack, Arner nearly ran out of mana, and now he barely even has any left.

Just when Arner was smiling at the success of his attack, he noticed someone standing beside him.

When Arner noticed who the other party was, he nearly fainted from the sheer shock.

was standing right beside him, totally unharmed, and was even watching that attack happen along with him, like a spectator.

His expression was just as emotionless as always, as if he had nothing to do with what was happening inside the range of that attack.

nodded his head at Arner and said it in his usual emotionless tone.

"Indeed, this attack is an excellent move... If you had used it against any other member of Team Astra, you certainly could have had a better chance of winning..."

Rio's sword swiftly sliced off Arner's other hand and inflicted numerous cuts across his body.

[Elemental Sword Art: Moon Type: Relentless Pursuit!]

Arner's body flew away and fell powerlessly to the ground after facing that fatal onslaught, but Arner didn't care about his own injuries at the time.

He wanted answers more than anything else.

*step**step*

While holding his sword in his right hand, slowly walked over to Arner with steady footsteps.

At that moment, Rio's aura was so intimidating that people mistook him for a 'cold' and 'ruthless' fighter.

raised his sword and placed it near Arner's neck, and his cold, emotionless voice rang out in Arner's ears.

"That attack certainly could have worked on others, but that's not the case for me… I have my methods."

"Underestimatingwas the reason that you lost, Arner Steelminer…"

Hearing Rio's words, a slight smile appeared on Arner's face, and he nodded his head.

"Yeah… I underestimated you, Dark Star. Let us fight again in the future when the opportunity arises…"

nodded his head at Arner's words and sheathed his sword.

A teleportation circle appeared below Arner and took him to the infirmary in an instant.

*And after an unexpected turn of events! Flash has won this match! The Children of Astra have once again proved to the world that they are undefeatable!!*

As the commentator announced Rio's victory, the audience burst into massive applause, but ignoring all that, simply walked back to the waiting area without even bothering to wave his hand at the audience.

He can't smile or celebrate his own victory, so it was pointless to stay here.

…

VVIP Area.

*Dead Silence*

easily evaded Arner's attack and stood beside him, watching the attack unfold like a spectator, shocking nearly all of the SS-rankers.

This turn of events was extremely shocking for even the SS-

rankers.

Ashtel and others knew that might win, but they had thought that would have to tank out this attack at the very least, which would give him schallenge.

But even they didn't think that would simply walk it off like nothing had happened at all.

Ryul looked at Ashtel and inquired in a tone of shock.

"What the f*ck just happened? Did I see something wrong? Why does it seem like didn't even do anything to avoid that attack, and the attack got deflected on its own?"

As an SS-ranker, Ryul noticed more details than the rest of the audience; he saw everything happen in extrslow-motion, which is why he was super confused at the moment.

But even Ashtel had no answer to Ryul's question.

"Uh…. well, even I don't know what just happened… This is the first tI have ever seen someone dodge a 'law-infused' attack with such ease…"

The SS-rankers observed that remained motionless.

Just when the attack launched, he used his 'movement arts' to stand beside Arner, and the 'un-dodge-able' attack stopped pursuing him for sreason, as if it had lost the target.

But this shouldn't have been possible in the first place; the attack was 'infused' with a 'law', and if had tried to dodge it, the attack would have followed him all around the battlefield.

However, after activation, the attack ceased to pursue for an unknown reason.

None of the SS-rankers had any idea what just happened, as even they hadn't seen this kind of situation.

The only person who knew about the real situation was himself.

…

Waiting Area.

As entered his waiting room, he glanced at the notification panel of his status window.

[Ding! An abnormal threat was detected!]

[Ding! 'True Immunity' has been triggered!]

[Ding! You are immune to the 'indefinite tracking' ability!]

shook his head and closed his status panel.

'This skill is too broken; it activates on random occasions, and even I don't know when it will activate…'

was actually about to use his shadow robe to counter that attack, but even he didn't anticipate that Arner's technique's "un-dodge-able" property might trigger 'true immunity'.

Even Ashtel and others couldn't figure out what happened because 'true immunity' can negate the perception of SS-

rankers as well.

bec'invisible' to the static field's tracking ability once 'True Immunity' activated.

Thus, he simply walked out of the attack range and watched it all without any care in the world.

can deactivate this skill if he wishes to, but he can't activate it at his will, it's a passive ability that works on its own. (He deactivated it when he fell into Marik's illusion...)

While shaking his head, walked over to the mirror, and as he looked at himself, a thought cto his mind.

'I was planning on having a proper fight… but it seems this one was really one-sided…'

From the start of the duel to the end, didn't suffer a single wound; this was a great disappointment in his opinion, but he still respected Arner's determination.

'Forget it; let's see if the next opponent can do better than this…'

…

Author's Note.

Yo! It's your beloved author here.

It kind of feels like has lost the feeling of excitement that he used to have when fighting… Now he has beceven more 'empty' than ever before….

Question of the day:.

Do you also think that is a straight up menace?

1. Yes (Bro literally stood beside the attacker to appreciate the attack like it was nothing…)

2. Yeah (His unamused behavior in all situations makes him seem like a villain type character…)
