Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy

Chapter 209 Chapter 209:Savour The Death[3]

Scenes flashed one after another after that.

He had already given up on thinking about what was happening, as he kept watching the brutal scenes one after another followed by a horrible soul-wrenching pain in each scene that disappeared after a few moments as if it never existed.

What shocked him the most, was that many times the original Lucas died even before he could get to the academy but once he managed to reach there, the scenes would end with Lucas encountering Julian in a severely ragged pathetic state where Julian would take pity on him and take him under her wing.

Most of the time, the original Lucas was bullied quite severely. For a moment, he thought that the original Lucas had a shitty luck to encounter bullies after staying at the bottom rank.

The original Lucas' previous belief of being a genius was completely crushed and shattered leading him to drown in an inferiority complex, and all this led him to develop grievance and anger towards his mother who had fuelled him with false hopes.

Looking at the scenes replaying one after another, a certain thought crossed in his mind.

"What about my parents?"

"They should not have ignored…"Lucas' words struck in the middle as he thought was just an outsider, leeching another guy's love.

Shaking his head, to clear the depressing thoughts, he muttered.

"Didn't they care about him when he was undergoing such an intense humiliation?"

"As far as I know, Mother can tell with a glance if my mood is off or something is wrong with me when I talk so why didn't she notice..."

Though he thought that it was wrong to blame his mother for this, he can sympathize with this guy as when your life is a mess and shit happens, one after another, it was very hard to maintain a clear reason and people tend to direct their anger to someone to release their frustration.

"Still, I find this weird. If this guy ignored Mother, knowing her, I would not be surprised if she appeared in front of the academy gate to take him back the very next day."

Before Lucas could finish his words as if responding to his doubt and question, the black space distorted again.

When everything returned to normal, his body stiffened witnessing a scene of large-scale devastation.

Large cracks scattered throughout the violent sky from which a sea of dark creatures gushed out like a torrent.

Grounds started to tremble as screams started to echo which were drowned out by the frightening explosions echoing one after another blasting everything.

Beyond scorching flames was the acrid nauseating smell of smoke of burnt corpses, and a huge mass of darkness whirling around a certain place.

As his gaze fell there, he found the place quite familiar as if he knew this like the back of his hand.

This time he didn't find the original Lucas anywhere and much to his surprise, unlike the previous times he could feel the sensation of touch as the soles of his feet pressed onto the ground.

The loud ringing sound echoed in his ears, and the hot wind of scorching heat blew over his face, giving a burning sensation. Sweat trickled down his face and his breathing started to become heavier and heavier.

He could feel all his senses in this realistic crafted scene that seemed to convey the deep warning of an untold danger that had always been hanging over his head.

Brushing his clothes, he leapt over cracks walking towards densely coagulated dark cloudy space.

There wasn't a single living being around him.

All that was present was a corpse with eyes filled with unwillingness lying over the broken debris staring up with an expression filled with deep shock and disbelief.

"It looks like a scene of cataclysm. A dungeon breakout wouldn't cause a devastation of this scale which can affect the earth and the sky."

"It looks more like a description of the world after the Demon Continent resurfaced."

As he walked in closer an inexplicable feeling grew inside his heart.

After a walk of five minutes, as he reached near the area his eyes widened and all his senses became alarmed.

From afar it looked like a black vortex of a typhoon spinning around that extended towards the sky but upon getting closer, he found that this wasn't a cyclone. Rather thousands of vile black creatures circled emitting a screeching and buzzing sound.

It was then he came to a sudden realization.

On his way here, none of the humans were alive so where was the scream coming from?

The sound of screaming was ringing all around, emerging from this place.

A large-scale explosion erupted in front of Lucas' eyes and a crimson cloud of flames burst out like a shockwave sweeping away dark creatures whose body was burnt into nothingness.

When the layer of flame disappeared, the sight of a bloodied woman standing alone over a horde of corpses appeared.

No, she wasn't alone as beside her lay an immobile figure with a humped back.

"It can't b-"His words choked seeing the familiar figures.

"No!"

"Father....Mother."

A scream emerged from his lips.

His heart jolted in pain as if someone stabbed straight into his heart. An inexplicable pain coursed through his body like someone who bombarded his head with a hammer.

"Mo...ther..."

His words were cut short when the sky above their head was blown away and a thousand of dark-cloaked shadowy figures appeared over the sky.

The sky seemed to tremble and crackle with their appearance.

Thousands of creatures veiled the sky like clouds of smoke. As they slowly descended, Lucas' eyes caught the sight of a horrifying creature that looked like it outside of this world.

Each had a huge humanoid body of grotesque fusion of various dark nightmarish elements with twister burly limbs and a sinister presence. And the creature had six vile wings that were tattered and bat-like with leathery dark skin and jagged edges.

Its eyes were burning with malevolence and its mouth was filled with rows of sharp serrated teeth. The creature was filled with an aura of darkness and despair making it a truly terrifying sight to behold.

His mother Vanessa with dark dead eyes looked up like a lifeless puppet.

"Except for your death, Vanessa. You might have a chance if worldly laws didn't suppress and block you from advancing."

A dark creature with a huge eye over its chest spoke assuming the command.

"Mother!"

Lucas screamed and jumped ahead but his figure froze at the place.

'Fuck....Fuckk...what is going on?! Why are they targeting her? Who the hell are they?'

Even if she might not be his real mother, he had already accepted her as his mother and the affection he had for his parents wasn't false.

So even if this was an illusion, his heart wrenched seeing those lifeless gazes of his mother that were always filled with life and vitality during their video calls.

The sky was suddenly illuminated by a bright light and a huge glowing sphere like a meteorite descended.

"Mother dont stand there....Take father and run!!"

His eyes oozed with heart-wrenching tears but none of his words reached his mother's ears who just stood there as if she had given up on living.

And just like that, the huge sphere of light slammed on the ground dyeing everything in white.

The world returned to nothing again but this time Lucas fell to the ground with eyes filled with tears.

"Why did this happen?!"

"Why?!!"

"Just why?!"

His roars resonated in the dark space but he knew this was useless as there was no one to answer him.

That's what he thought, however…

"It seems I overestimated your mental capacity too much."

Lucas abruptly turned around and saw a face familiar to Lucas but a bit older sitting on a bloodied throne made of corpses.

In front of that guy, there was a huge television that was playing someone's scenes.

Lucas' eyes widened seeing this as on screen, his pathetic self screaming was playing again and again.

"What was this?"

"Do you like this space?"The other person's voice echoed in his ear.

As if having a hypnotic effect that could mess up one thought, it messed up Lucas's mind and his inner thoughts emerged from his lips much to his surprise.The trauma and panic that he had felt suddenly vanished as if this never existed for a moment.

"So this place is cool and all, but what's the purpose of that television?"

"I am just watching a drama that's not good in any sense. You can assume this as watching Naruto with different endings...So ignore that now. Anyway-"

"You even know Naruto.Lets leave it aside.This screen seriously it kills the vibes of this place. You should-"Lucas almost closed his lips as his thoughts went astray and he was led away by this guy's question.

The television disappeared and the other guy stared at him venomously.

"There, gone, happy?!"

Lucas hit his head and slapped his cheeks, to break out from this reverie and staring at him hatefully, he screamed.

"Why did you see all this to me?! Are you a psychopath who takes joy in others' suffering or are you taking revenge because I occupied your body, Sir Original Lucas no…. Future Lucas of a shitty future, so you tortured me with those painful feelings?" Lucas spoke while inferring that this guy might be from the future.

"Hehehehehehe!"

Instead of answering, he started laughing like a madman which irked Lucas.

"Did you like it? This feeling of death.The repeated thrill of the agony and despair."

Future Lucas asked with a small smile while resting his chin over his palm.

"No, I don't. Who the hell would like that?!"Lucas screamed.

"Well, I also didn't like all this but sadly I had to go through all this shit and unfortunately, you too have to go through all this.."

Unable to tolerate that sinister goofy smile of this guy, Lucas cursed.

"Fuck you."

"Fuck you too."

".....'
