The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 52

Chapter 52: FULLDIVE [8]
****

Alya moved through the trees with remarkable speed.

As an archer armentist, she had been trained in physical activities since her awakening.

Her bow was in her hand and she had already nocked an arrow on it to prepare herself.

She didn’t know about the other group but there was no communication at all on her side.

More like, she was the cause of no communication.

After years of barely talking with his brother, there was an awkward atmosphere between the two.

As for the other guy….

‘What was his name again?..’ She wondered as she jumped from a tree.

Ah, yes, Adam.

He was completely calm about the situation, having no worries at all.

Rather, he was even sleepy as he kept yawning from time to time.

Well, it wasn’t like she would have preferred communication.

She knew that Charlotte was already quite weaker than her in terms of a hide-and-attack battle. As long as she could keep her distance, defeating her was easy.

And fortunately, the current environment was perfect for it.

A Rainforest. It provided everything that was needed for an archer.

The long and thick trees provided good cover and stealth for her while at the same time making it difficult for Charlotte to attack with her greatsword.

As soon as the explanation was done by Athena, she instantly announced to her teammates that she would be taking care of the whole team by herself.

She told them to just sit outside of the forest and guard the crystal.

But that order was more directed at Adam as Michael had instantly rushed off at the sound of starting.

The former, who was already lazy, had agreed to sit outside the forest and guard the crystal.

But here was the problem for Alya.

Recognizing that the forest would be a problem for herself, Charlotte must be opting to get out of it and destroy the crystal, which would be placed in an open space.

She would be able to definitely fight at her full power there.

And for a guy like Adam, who possessed the [Lightning] element, he was obviously not standing a chance against her.

Nevertheless, Alya was confident in herself that she would find Charlotte first and defeat her before she could get out of the forest.

Suddenly, as she jumped from another tree, a large tremor shook the ground, throwing her off balance on the next branch.

Quickly stabilizing herself in the air, she grabbed a nearby branch and hung down from it.

Her head quickly drifted towards the source of the noise which came from a distance.

There, quite far into the forest, she saw large billows of smoke rising up.

‘Michael….’ She instantly recognized the cause.

For the Lancasters, who were highly proficient in [Fire], they could easily detect a fire from miles away.

Especially so if it was started by their kin.

But the large firepower that was being exuded from Michael right now sent her into immense shock.

‘H-how, t-this is Michael right now?’ She thought in disbelief.

It was the same man who was barely able for form a fire spell a week ago!?

She couldn’t believe it but it was right in front of her eyes.

But still, she quickly composed herself. This was a battle. She couldn’t let down her guard right now.

As she tried to find out who the other person was and if her twin needed assistance, she quickly calmed down after seeing it was Amon.

She could see the color of blood from the spaces between the trees because of her archer eyesight.

Amon Ashford. He was an intriguing person indeed.

Certainly, someone who was enough to get her attention.

But that was only because of his relationship with Michael.

As for his strength, she was definitely sure her twin was enough to beat him.

Even though he might still be a little weak from the powerup, the person he was fighting, Amon, was abysmally weak.

To the point of even making her call him pathetic because of his control over his element.

Before she could continue her trail of thought, her eyes suddenly moved with alertness.

Her body instinctively reacted and a fire-imbued arrow escaped from her bow in the next second to the side.

The arrow whizzed through the air before coming directly in contact with a water spear.

The fire and water fought against each other and the former instantly got extinguished.

But even so, the normal arrow cut through the spear and continued at its path.

But the person had already moved from their spot and it hit nothing but the sturdy bark of a tree.

Alya’s eyes turned to another spot and she quickly jumped out of the tree’s hiding.

Coming out, her eyes locked with the attacker.

He had messy pitch-black hair and azure blue eyes.

Since it wasn’t Amon, she instantly recognized him as the third person of the party.

Klein Sinclaire.

In the next second, two flaming arrows and two water spears contacted each other again.

Just like before, the arrows cut through the spears and shot right at Klein, who was forced to dodge them.

Unfortunately, though he dodged both of the arrows, he was unprepared for the sudden kick that landed on his back, sending him crashing across the ground.

Gritting his teeth through the pain, Klein jumped from the ground to the side, dodging the two flaming arrows that impacted the ground.

Blood trickled down from both sides of his mouth that he brushed aside and got ready to fight with two water shortswords manifesting in his hands.

Alya too nocked 3 arrows on her bow, which instantly caught fire on the tip.

She was ready to quickly demolish this person and continue on her path to find Charlotte.

****

Charlotte moved remarkably fast across the forest ground.

She was moving through the middle of the forest right now, the part which was quite denser than the other parts.

The large number of vines and trees posed a bit of difficulty for her to move but it was fine as she kept making earth for herself to traverse better.

For a heavy tank like her, it would have been better for her to move from the outer edges of the forest, where there was less density.

But, that was exactly what she wanted Alya to think.

Mistaking that Charlotte would be coming from the outside edges, she would take that path to eliminate her quickly.

Taking the main person out of the team would instantly plummet Charlotte’s team chances to zero.

After seeing the forest, she instantly scrapped her plan to fight with Alya.

She would never win in this environment. And this was what they had decided after they had revised the plan after coming.

Suddenly, the ground rumbled with intensity and a large explosion occurred on the right side of the forest.

She quickly moved her head to the side and saw large billows of smoke in the air.

She instantly thought of the person as Alya. In her mind, she was the only person who was capable of this much firepower.

Michael was too weak.

She tried to see who was fighting her and shock etched on her face as she saw the color of blood for a millisecond through a space.

She still wasn’t sure about it but she thought it was Amon now.

In this case, he was definitely going to lose to her in a minute. Maybe even seconds.

But that aside, her eyes suddenly widened.

‘If Alya is there then…’

Since Alya was a considerable distance from her, that meant…

‘The Team Crystal was all for me to handle and destroy….’ She thought.

And instantly, she put more mana into her element and shot through the trees.
