Reborn as an Extra - Chapter 69

Chapter 69: Liam moves on…
B-rank Dungeon, Lava Lake

Forest Area

“I found you, Brother Fade” (Jiang)

A young man appeared right between Liam and Fade, just before they were about to start fighting, his sudden appearance caused Liam to snap out of the increasing madness from hate in his heart.

As everyone was trying to figure out what was going on, Fade felt that this voice is very familiar:

“Hmm, I think I have heard this voice somewhere… I don’t really remember it though…” (Fade)

As Jiang heard this, his aura increased and blew away all the dust and trees in the area, Liam’s wyvern was pushed back a few meters in the air, and Fade and Kira had to step back a few meters to avoid the air pressure from Jiang’s aura.

“To think you will already forget who I am, how rude of you, brother Fade… It’s me your brother Jiang, who always used to help you or I say was always scammed by you…” (Jiang)

“Wh-what are you saying…. Jiang? There’s no way you are Jiang, he was fatty, and a D-ranker on top of that, his aura can’t be so powerful!….” (Fade)

As the dust settled Liam looked at Jiang from above and he couldn’t help but get surprised:

‘I heard that there was a friend of Fade, who always was hanging around him, but wasn’t he a fat person, this guy looks like well-built and muscular as if he has been working out for a long time, not to mention that he have those two strange wings on his back even his aura is equal to an A-ranker, what’s going on!’ (Liam)

“What are you talking about brother Fade, I am your old friend Jiang come let’s hug each other as precious friends do!” (Jiang)

As Jiang said that, the two wings behind his back opened and he leaped towards Fade so fast that even his afterimages were hard to follow.

(In front of Rio and Link an A-ranker might look like not much of a problem as both of them are terrifying monsters, but for normal awakeners, the difference between a B-ranker and an A-ranker is very huge.)

Jiang rushed towards Fade and before Fade could cast any spell, he was caught by Jiang and forcefully hugged, Jiang, locked his hands with the hug.

“Don’t worry brother Fade, let’s enjoy this moment of reunion with great celebration, for the celebration let’s hold a show, yeah, the show about how a human behaves when tortured…” (Jiang)

As Jiang said that, a smile that no human can make appeared on his face, his smile stretched from one ear to the other, and his teeth which looked like those of a beast were exposed, Jiang’s face looked extremely terrifying right now. The symptoms Jiang was giving looked very similar to those people who were possessed by beings of demonic origins.

“Un….hand….me….” (Fade)

As the strength of Jiang’s hand increased a few ribs of Fade started to crack slowly, all the air in Fade’s lungs was forcefully pulled out and it seemed too difficult to breathe.

Just as Fade was feeling that his heart would be crushed he was granted a saving grace:

[Basic Flame Magic: Condensed flame beam!]

“Get away from, Fade!” (Kira)

The spell seemed weak against an A-ranker but it successfully pushed Jiang away from Fade.

As Jiang was separated from Fade, Fade’s body fell powerlessly on the ground like a doll whose strings has been cut. Kira rushed towards Fade and took his pulse first.

‘At least he is alive! Although there seem to be severe internal injuries, his internal organs seem to have been crushed…’ (Kira)

Kira brought out a high-rank healing potion from her space ring and poured it on Fade’s body, a green light appeared all around Fade and covered him in a healing green glow.

Just when Kira was about heave a sigh of relief, she heard from behind her:

“Why are you getting between the reunion of two brothers, woman!” (Jiang)

Jiang appeared behind her without her even knowing, she tried to cast a spell but she knew she won’t be able to make it on time, just when Jiang’s hand was about to blast Kira’s head off, she found herself levitating in the air.

“What are you doing!? That guy is dangerous! We should head away from him, his aura is equal to an A-ranker! You will not be able to even make a scratch on him!” (Liam)

‘I barely made it due to that guy Jiang not being serious while attacking Kira, otherwise, with the speed of my Wyvern I wouldn’t have been able to save Kira… That was a close call…’ (Liam)

Liam hurriedly ordered his wyvern to fly away from the place at full speed.

While the wyvern was flying at its full speed, Liam looked at Kira who was hanging in the claws of the wyvern, and heaved a sigh of relief after figuring out that she was okay.

“Brother Liam! Stop we have to save Fade! He will be in danger if we leave like that, stop we can’t go like that!” (Kira)

“Are you out of your mind!? Even if you go there you wouldn’t be able to do anything to stop an A-ranker, leave that trash on his own and leave this area with me, I am sure the teachers will save him when his health meter goes down.” (Liam)

“No! I must go away, I can’t let that monster harm Fade! Stop Brother Liam! I must save Fade!” (Kira)

[Basic Wind magic: Slipping wind!]

As Kira cast her magic, she slipped from the claws of the Wyvern and started to fall toward the ground:

[Basic Wind magic: Wings of flight!]

Two bird-like wings appeared made of wind magic appeared behind Kira and stabilized her in the air, after Kira flapped the wings she rushed towards Fade’s location at an astonishingly fast speed, her speed was so fast that she immediately disappeared towards the horizon.

Liam looked at the disappearing figure of Kira with sadness in his heart.

“Sigh, how long are you going to keep pursuing that ungrateful woman, you should already forget her you know…She doesn’t care about you at all…” (???)

For a while, Liam didn’t say anything and continued to look at the horizon, while the wyvern continued to fly away at full speed… After a while he said:

“Well, that was my last try to make her come back to me…. But it seems to have failed…. Sigh, years of care and loves all gone to dust, just for a trash who appeared out of nowhere…” (Liam)

“So, what are you gonna do now? Will you go and save them?” (???)

Liam could hear the obvious sarcasm in that voice, he sighed again and again and then said:

“No, let’s leave her for good now… She is not the same Kira, she once used to be…. That calculative and intelligent Kira, has now lost her mind in love…” (Liam)

‘At first, I was thinking that she was manipulating Fade and was doing that to achieve something but today she has proved that she is serious about that trash…. Well, let’s leave her alone since she has chosen her path, as I love her I should respect her choice too….’ (Liam)

“I should get rid of these feelings I have for her… Let’s go and challenge some other monsters….” (Liam)

As Liam felt himself being hugged from behind, he again heard the feminine voice he has been talking to:

“Don’t worry I will take good care of you, as you are my summoner, Master Liam” (???)

Liam didn’t say anything and for the first time didn’t reject the hug, he has always been rejecting since he first became a summoner.

Two clear drops of tear slid from the purple eyes of the young man and he continued to look at the horizon while venting his feelings.

(Here ends the love story of a young man, who once used to love someone wholeheartedly. Now he can move forward in life without any regrets.)

(He now understood that falling in love is easy and simple, maintaining it is difficult and hard, but forgetting your love is painful and depressing, only those with strong personalities can continue to move forward, and only strong can survive the aftermath created by the poison called love in their body.)

(A wise sorcerer once said: Love is the most twisted curse of them all.)
