Reborn as an Extra



Inside the entrance ceremony hall.

Looking at all the students sitting, Lenn also sat down beside her friend. 

'But seriously this hall is so well decorated and even the air feels nice in here, they must be using magic powered air conditioners here…' (Lenn)

"Why are you squirming around so much, can't you sit properly, tsk…" (Ars)

Hearing Ars say that, Lenn's anger reached a new height. Looking at the guy sitting beside her she had a fierce look on her beautiful face. (Sorry guys, there are no jade beauties here…. Cough! My cough is acting again perhaps I should stop reading those manhuas.)

"What does that have to do with you, it's my choice!" (Lenn)

"Hmph, not only are your actions unpleasant you even have an unpleasant tongue, tsk women…" (Ars)

"What do you mean unpleasant you were the one who started this, god damn bastard!" (Lenn)

"Oh you can swear too, tsk tsk young people these days tsk tsk…" (Ars)

"Hah, as if you are not one of the young people yourself, just shut up I don't want to talk to you bastard!" (Lenn)

"tsk, I should have sat somewhere else, why do I have to bear with this foul-mouthed girl, such an unlucky day…" (Ars) 

'This guy is totally messing with me on purpose, yet even if I know I can't help but get angry at him, this piece of sh*t is so annoying!' (Lenn)

Looking at the guy who was acting all high and mighty, Lenn had a serious headache. 

'It's been a while since I last felt so annoyed with someone, this guy pisses me off so much, I just want to punch him in the face!' (Lenn)

Just when the two were arguing the principal came on the stage and everyone fell silent including Lenn and Ars too. The principal gave a simple speech for encouragement and then she started to brag about the previous year's students.

"The previous year's students had some very excellent and talented individuals, especially that kid named Link, even though he was a B-ranker he was still able to defeat A-rankers during his first year in the academy, this level of talent is hard to come by in many centuries." (Raji)

"You all should take him as an example and work hard to achieve great feats." (Raji)

"Now then, let us introduce the first ranker of this year's entrance exam – Leo Roserolt!" (Raji)

As the principal's speech ended an insanely handsome blonde hair boy stepped on the stage, nervousness could be clearly seen on his face, he looked like he could faint from anxiety any moment now.

"That guy, he can't get past his stage fright issue, he really has an idiotic personality, ugh…" (Ars)

"What does that have to do with you anyway, stop criticizing others, your own personality is terrible too!" (Lenn)

"tsk, I am not talking to you, can you stop meddling in my business, tsk in the end all women are the same, they can't help but meddle in others' business…" (Ars)

"Wha! You were the one who first messed up things, you were the one who meddled in my business first, and yet you are acting as if you are the victim, seriously how shameless can one be!" (Lenn) 

"Whatever, I don't care…" (Ars)

"Ugh, damn you!" (Lenn)

After saying a few words awkwardly Leo left the stage and the principal told them about some other things and eventually the ceremony ended. All the students excitedly left for their classes one by one.

.

Class A-3 (The same one Rio and others were in the last year.)

Lenn sat on the last second row, near the window, a typical protagonist's seat. Coincidentally Ars was sitting on her right and Leo was on her front side. May it be coincident or fate these three are already well acquainted with each other now.

"Why are you sitting here, go somewhere else! You green-haired gorilla!" (Lenn)

"I sat here first, you should go somewhere else, pink-haired chimpanzee!" (Ars)

"G-guys, y-you should not fight, let's just be friends okay…" (Leo)

"You shut up! Golden mosquito!" (Lenn) 

"You shut up! Golden worm!" (Ars)

"ugh, okay…" (Leo)

Yeah, they are all well acquainted by now, they are so close that they even gave nicknames to each other. 

"What are you talking about!? He's obviously a golden mosquito, can't you see how his nervous buzzing voice makes people annoyed! Just like a mosquito!" (Lenn)

"No! He is obviously a golden worm! Can't you see how weak and pathetic he is, just like a worm!?" (Ars)

Hearing both of them start roasting him instead, Leo had a helpless look on his face.

'I should have just shut up, now they are targeting me too!' (Leo)

While the three of them kept bickering back and forth, the teacher finally came and the whole class went silent. The three of them also stopped bickering and finally shut up their mouths.

The teacher was obviously not Anna, this is a new teacher, and he is an S-rank earth mage. Anna was too injured to come back to teach after all, and due to her failure to protect the students two times last year, she has already been fired from her job as a teacher in the academy and this new teacher has taken her place. 

Anna would have suffered more backlash but the new SS-ranker Jin Walt helped her a lot and shielded her from every attack by the media. Nonetheless, her career as a teacher has ended because of the huge infamy brought about by those two incidents.

The academy had to put the blame on someone for these incidents and Anna became the perfect scapegoat for it. This is just how the world works, just a few mistakes can make your reputation go from being a hero to a great villain.

Training grounds

After the introductions were over, the teacher led them toward the training grounds to choose their weapons. Just like the last year. Although there's not a protagonist this year there are still many talented and excellent students in this batch of students.

Ars chose a dagger because he is an assassin, Leo chose a bow and Lenn chose the iron gauntlets because she is a martial artist like Link. (There is no infin*ty gauntlet in this world don't even think about it.)

All the students demonstrated their skills and the teachers who were observing from the monitoring room had a satisfied look on their faces.

"These three kids, Lenn, Ars, and Leo are the most outstanding out of all the students this year." 

"Indeed. Although they can't compare to the previous year's top students like Link, they have great talent too. If taught properly they can surely reach rank A+ at least."

"Speaking of A-rank has those previous year students entered A-rank, after all a few of them can already fight an ordinary A-ranker toe to toe…" 

"Hmm, we don't know for sure but anyway it's about time they will surpass us old bones in a few months. Sigh~ time passes by so fast, in a blink of an eye those weak children have grown to be pillars of support for humanity and they still have huge potential left in them…" 

"Speaking of the previous year's students, Ms. Anna ended up teaching the most outstanding students last year, which was really unexpected."

"Yeah, even that guy Fade, whom we thought to be useless ended up becoming one of the top 10 ranked students, the way of Ms. Anna's teaching is really profound. It's a shame that she encountered such trouble, sigh~"

Academy's Dormitory

Rio's Room

Standing near the window with the same 3D-printed tea in his hand and with the same expressionless look on his face, Rio looked at the scenery outside and sipped his tea peacefully. These peaceful times are what motivate you to become stronger and work to protect this peace. 

In Rio's life as an Extra peace seldom appears most of the time he is busy with some unexpected events, which pop out of nowhere.

Many thoughts passed by in Rio's mind and eventually he reached a conclusion:

'It's about time I go on the next stealing session.' (Rio)
