Reborn as an Extra - Chapter 39
Chapter 39: Butterfly effect?
Rio’s dorm room
‘I wonder what she is doing here?’
‘W-why is he staring at me like that?’
“W-would you stop staring like that!? you perv!”
“Well, it’s your own fault, you have such a cute face, i just can’t help but stare~” (Rio)
“I-i… Y-you are teasing me again! aren’t you!?”
“Oh! You found out! Indeed, you have grown up, even though you used to be so naive back then, sigh~”
“Stop talking like an old man! And I am not naive!”
“Heh, you are so naive~, you even came inside a boy’s room all alone; don’t you think something might happen to you?”
A playful smile spread over Rio’s face; he purposely made an expression that made him look like a perv to mess with her.
Lia had a sudden urge to beat this bastard into pulp, but she held back her hand while clenching her fists tightly.
‘Maybe I should stop teasing her now or she will really get angry at me, don’t wanna lose my first ever girlfriend so fast after all, hehe…’
“Okay, okay, calm down… So, why are here today?”
“Y-you better not mess around next time; i-i will forgive you for now, I am here to invite you… My father wants to meet you… He said he knows something about your past and wants to talk to you about it…”
‘hmm, Lia’s father? There wasn’t much written about him in the novel; the only thing I know about him is how he died horribly…’
In the novel, Lia didn’t talk about her father ever. so there’s not much information about him in Rio’s mind.
‘Suddenly he wants to meet me… Could it be also one of the butterfly effects I caused?’
“Is he going to fix our marriage date or what?”
“I don’t exactly know why he wants to meet you-”
“W-what are you saying!? You idiot! W-who would marry someone like you!?”
“Eh, you don’t want to?”
“Th-thats not it….i-i…”
“M-More importantly! Would you come with me? I-if you don’t want to, th-then it okay too.”
‘She changed the topic… quite quick to run away when the situation is disadvantageous, heh…’
“Of course, I am coming. There’s no way I will refuse to meet my future father-in-law hehe…”
“O-okay then, meet me outside the academy at 8 am tomorrow, now I should get going!”
“Oh, okay…”
Rio looked at Lia, who seemed to be in a hurry to run away from here.
‘Maybe i teased her a bit too much today.’
After Lia left, a sudden thought came to Rio’s mind:
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
‘Lia’s father, well known for his heavy sword and ridiculous strength.’
In the novel, his past wasn’t described; the only thing that was said was that he is currently a S-ranker and a guild master. But one thing was described in the novel very clearly:
‘He was killed by Lia when she became a demon and died tragically…’
…
Dungeon- Lizard’s Nest, Entrance gate
A young boy with brown hair and pupils can be seen standing in front of a dungeon gate. Beside him is a girl with orangish hair color.
The girl has an excited expression on her face, and the same goes for the boy too.
Anyone can tell that they are novice by looking at their expression; after all, an experienced person will not look at a place filled with monster with a smile on their face, except if they have some problem in their head.
With smiles on their faces, both of them entered this dungeon.
This is a low-rank dungeon and generally C-rankers are eligible to enter this place. Anyone below it is not allowed to enter this place.
After they entered the dungeon, both of them brought out their staff to be ready to cast spells at any moment.
They immediately encountered a lizard monster; the monster didn’t even give them time to think and directly attacked them.
“Be careful, Kira. Although it’s slow, it’s attack is strong.”
“Yes!”
[Fire-Magic: Fire arrow rain!]
The attack successfully landed but it only caused some little damage to the monster.
It’s not that the spell is weak; it’s just that this type of monster is more resistant to fire-type attacks.
“Fade, use water magic on it; it’s resistant to fire magic!”
“Yeah!”
After that, Fade immediately attacked with water magic.
[Basic Water-Magic: water blade!]
This time the monster got injured fatally and died after Fade cast a small water arrow spell in a few seconds.
[+1500 Exp!]
‘Good, although these monsters are strong, they really gave a good amount of Exp to me.’
“Let’s get going! We still have a long way ahead!”
After three hours:
“Haa…huff…haa…we finally killed that boss monster. It was really a difficult fight. Wasn’t it?”
“Yeah, it was rather tough, but luckily we got a monster core from it!”
“Yeah, we are rather lucky this time…”
“But what about that hidden area that monster opened when we were fighting? Should we go inside and check it out?”
“Yeah! we should go there! Maybe we will find out something good there!”
“Okay!”
After deciding on it, both of them immediately got inside, and after walking for a while, they found the same room where Rio had been before.
Looking around, they found broken pieces of something like a container.
There wasn’t anything else of their interest. Fade suddenly felt strange after he didn’t get anything here.
This was the first time in a very long while he suffered such bad luck.
‘Actually, this feeling is rather different; it feels as if I have lost something that should have been mine, strange…’
“There’s nothing here; let’s go.”
“Y-yeah”
Fade’s mood got worse suddenly; he didn’t know why, but he felt hateful thinking about this matter.
[Ding! It is detected host’s Fate has been affected due to an anomaly!]
[Would you like to find the reason behind it?]
[Will cost 5K Exp!]
[Yes/No]
‘Yes’
[Ding! Calculating the reason and probability using threads of fate!]
[Error… Retrying…. Error….]
[The Fate related to you have been altered due to some anomaly; please be cautious, host.]
‘what?’
“Hey, Fade, did something happen? You look depressed.”
“Nothing; let’s leave this place.”
…
Outside academy
A luxury car can be seen standing near the main gate, seemingly waiting for someone.
After a while, a young boy with black hair and black pupils, wearing casual clothes, arrived in the place.
Rio looked at the luxury car and then at the butler standing beside it for a while and then decided to walk towards it.
Noticing him coming near, the butler looked towards him and then opened the gate of the car, fully show-casing his professional training in mannerisms.
“Mr. Rio, please get inside. I will escort you to the silver mansion.”
“Yeah, okay.”
After Rio got inside, the butler slowly closed the door, making sure that no noise was created, again displaying his ridiculous training on how a butler should be.
‘Not to mention the manners; this guy is giving off the aura of an A-rank; even the driver seems to be a peak A ranker. If not for the fact that I know I was invited, i would have thought I was being kidnapped.’
While the car moved steadily without even a single bump or uncomfortable move, Rio’s mind drifted off to somewhere else.
[An unknown energy has tried to detect your origins.]
[Skill ‘True Immunity’ has been triggered…]
[Blocked the interference successfully!]
‘What is happening suddenly? Is this also a butterfly effect. At least it failed to detect me, this skill ‘true immunity’ is really a gem…’
Just as Rio was busy admiring his skill. The car also came to stop.
“We are here.”
Rio opened the door and walked out of the car. A huge mansion appeared in his vision. Although he already had guessed that the mansion would definitely be very big.
But seeing it in person is really different.
After looking for a second, Rio followed behind the butler, who led the way inside.
The gardens all around the mansion are also very beautiful,, and several rare flowers can be seen in these gardens from the distance.
The scenery around the mansion is also very beautiful. Looking very different from outside and inside.

Authors note: my pc snapped today so I wasn’t able to update and got late, and the chapter length is also a bit small.
Well here’s today’s question.
What do you think will fade be able to determine who is the anomaly stealing and destroying his luck or he will continue to suffer:
1. Yes
2. No
Also don’t forget to use those power stones guys. We need to rank it this month. Let’s go we can do it.
Also there’s the win- win event going on. It seems that if we win in it then the cost of purchasing chapters will reduce considerably for a while month so I am looking forward to your support guys.
In return I will be updating a new chapter everyday. So you guys won’t get bored. Although it may take a bit of time for my pc to be repaired and the updates may be slow but I will try my best to not miss the days.
Come back and read more tomorrow, everyone! Visit Novel1st(.)c.𝒐m for updates.
