Reborn as an Extra - Chapter 206

Chapter 206: Aaron’s Fate…
Oaklum Alliance Branch, Head Office.

A man in luxurious clothes stood in front of the work table, his expression towards the man sitting on the head’s chair seemed quite respectable.

“Sigh… that means the whole area around that underwater cave is already under the influence of immense chaotic mana?” (Jin)

“Yes, I had sent a few A-rankers to take care of it for the time being, if it still continues I will go there personally…”

“hmm, good… at least there were no casualties, that’s already quite a good thing… did you bring it back then?” (Jin)

“Yeah, we have put it in a sealed mana container for now…”

“Lead me there then…” (Jin)

Jin got up and ordered the other party to lead the way.

The other person didn’t dare to be disrespectful and directly agreed. If someone from Oaklum had seen this scene they would have been quite shocked.

The person that Jin was ordering around right now, was none other than the S-ranker stationed at Oaklum.

Usually, this person behaved quite arrogantly but today he was extremely respectful towards Jin. Regardless of his status as an S-ranker, he didn’t dare to be arrogant in front of a demi-god.

It would simply be just a matter of a flick of a finger for Jin and he would be flattened instantly.

The difference between an S-ranker and an SS-ranker is extremely huge, it’s like they are beings from two different worlds.

…

After walking for a while, Jin arrived at a hidden area in the basement of the building.

“This place is a hidden place and usually we put criminals and dead bodies of awakened people confined in this place… but now that the situation has turned out like this… we had to put it here…”

Jin nodded his head at the man’s words.

“Well, this is the only way to suppress the leaking mana for now…” (Jin)

The man nodded his head and silently led the way forward.

After a while, both of them arrived at the innermost area of the basement.

The man put his palm on the gate and after reading his fingerprint the door of the room opened.

The insides of the room were brightened by the mana-powered lights and right in the middle of this white-colored room lay a small glass coffin.

“This glass coffin is made from the latest technology… it can’t suppress the mana of a living person, but if it’s a dead body, then it is quite possible to make it stay in a constant state…”

Jin walked over to the coffin and inside of the glass coffin lay the dead body of Aaron, the water dragon.

His head was separated from his body. His chest had a huge hole right in the center. Aaron was dead.

“We are using this coffin to suppress the mana in his body, if his mana leaks outside, his body will slowly dissipate into nothingness and we will have no evidence left…”

“Well, of course, we need the evidence…” (Jin)

Preserving Aaron’s dead body in this mana-suppression coffin was a strategic move.

If they hadn’t preserved his body like this, it would have slowly dissipated into nothingness and if one day the dragon race asked for an explanation, humanity will have no evidence to prove their point.

“When I sent A-rankers to investigate the area after that Yacht incident, the team found this body floating in the sea…”

“It is very likely that this person, ahem… I mean this dragon was likely killed by that same demon who attacked the students of the Freya academy…”

“Alverto Chronos Perdere that was the name of that demon… I have met those children who got involved in this incident and they found that demon’s name… that’s not just a random demon…. He is from the royal demon family…” (Jin)

“Moreover he had some way to escape from right under my nose… that means he is using some kind of SS-rank artifact to evade detection…” (Jin)

The main reason why they had to put Aaron’s body into this mana suppression coffin was because once a dragon dies his body will start turning into mana.

If left alone in the wild, the mana that will escape from the body of an Adult dragon like Aaron will be immense and it will cause the mana of that area to become extremely chaotic.

If someone below A-rank entered such a place that’s been contaminated with chaotic mana, they will likely end up like how Fade did when he first entered the dungeon of Maya.

Similar things happen sometimes with the dead bodies of immensely powerful people like S-rankers of humans and other races.

Only SS-rankers are the individuals whose control over their mana is so good that even in case they end up dying, their mana will dissipate extremely slowly on its own and it won’t affect the environment even one bit.

If an SS-ranker really had malicious thoughts, then they could just self-destruct and blast this whole planet into smithereens.

Then their mana would spread violently and would become dangerous for even S-rankers to withstand.

…

“If one day someone from the dragon race comes over looking for what happened to this dragon, we will be able to show this dead body as evidence…”

Jin nodded his head at the man’s words.

“Indeed, it would be bad if we angered the dragons for something we didn’t even do…” (Jin)

Killing a dragon is a huge deal in this world.

Dragons are extremely arrogant individuals, they think of all races as mere mortals, if someone tried to challenge their authority by killing dragons for no reason, they would have to suffer the wrath of the dragon king himself.

A similar thing happened with Tomar when he was going crazy about hunting dragons all over the world.

In the end, he brought the wrath of the dragon king on himself and ended up dying without even being able to retaliate even a little bit.

No one in their correct mind would want to make an enemy out of the Dragon king in today’s world, even fellow SS-rankers dare not act rashly in front of that person.

‘Still, if things really came to worse, we still have Ashtel Rex on our side so things should work out somehow…’ (Jin)

Jin himself doesn’t think that he can take on the Dragon King by himself, but if it’s Ashtel Rex, then things will be a bit different.

Ashtel may seem like a strict and loving father from Link’s perspective, but from the perspective of the enemies of mankind, Ashtel is their worst nightmare.

In his career as an SS-ranker, Ashtel has killed two fellow SS-rankers and has defeated five of them head-on.

Once he was besieged by three SS-rankers of the demon race, and the fight ended in the death of two SS-rankers and the escape of the third one.

After that dark day, no other race dared to ever challenge Ashtel again.

That was the day Ashtel won the title, ‘The Dominator’. Other races avoid him like a plague nowadays.

…

After a few more talks with the other party, Jin left the place and finished up his work for the day.

“Keep conducting the high-intensity searching operation for now, we don’t want to miss any other clue…” (Jin)

“Understood!”

Jin got inside his luxurious car and left the alliance branch.

Seeing the fading figure of the car, the other party also heaved a sigh of relief.

“Phew~”

Standing in such close proximity of a demi-god is no small feat, it’s like you are always under constant pressure. One wrong move and the other party will flatten you with a flick of their fingers.

Even if you know that SS-rankers don’t usually kill people unreasonably, it will still make you nervous when standing in front of them.

It is like your life is right in their palm and their gaze is so intense as if they can see through your mind.

(Fun Fact, an SS-ranker with the authority related to mind will likely be able to hear the thoughts of individuals below S-rank easily… so better keep your mind in check if you meet one…)

(Or just learn a skill like ‘true immunity’ etc.. it will block the mind reading easily.)

The S-ranker wiped the sweat on his forehead and went back to work. Unknowingly his whole back was drenched in sweat. Withstanding the pressure of an SS-ranker is no joke.

Moreover, Jin has just recently reached the SS rank, and his control over his immense aura is still not that refined, which makes people unbearable.

But oddly enough, Anna never felt pressured by Jin’s aura at all, only when meeting Anna does Jin put his greatest effort to suppress his aura to the extreme.

If he really pressured Anna with his aura, wouldn’t he lose a lot of favorability points?

…

Author’s Notes.

Yo! It’s your beloved author here! Finally, we also know what happened to our best boi Aaron when he encountered Alverto.

Don’t go for externals, Aaron’s body is still in a better condition compared to his soul. Alverto literally destroyed Aaron’s soul in order to find out more information about the students.

Aaron’s soul has been smashed into nothingness and only his dead body remains. Even that would disappear if not for the mana suppression coffin.

Question of the day.

Do you also think that Alverto is quite good at planning?

1. Yes.

2. Yeah.
