Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 83 Reasons And Aftermath!

After a week, since the ascension of Jin.

Rio's dorm Room.

Rio is lying down on the sofa casually and looking at the TV, a reporter is currently rambling about the incident that occurred in the academy:

"The previous rumor that the academy has been under attack which was being suppressed by the alliance has been finally confirmed true!" (John, the reporter)

(This guy seriously looks angry, even his face has become red from anger and his voice is loud as he is shouting at the top of his lungs as if he is nagging his children.)

"It turns out there has been a huge demon attack during the final exams of the first-year students of the academy… out of all the 300 students that took part in that exam and went inside the B-rank dungeon, name Lava-lake, only 160 of them have made it out alive!" (John)

"Can you believe it! This is such a high death rate, those 140 children could have been major pillars of support for the whole human empire! Each of them had the potential to at least reach rank B- and support the society to flourish!" (John)

"This is the second most devastating blow done to the academy over the span of last 500 years!" (John)

"The first being the attack carried out by a rouge berserk dragon suddenly appearing due to the mutation in the dungeon and killing about 200 students, which was about 350 years ago!" (John)

"This just shows that we have repeated the same mistake again by not providing the young children with enough protection and care!" (John)

"How are we supposed to send our children to schools after we hear the sudden and unreasonable death of so many of the students!? How are we supposed to trust the school staff with the safety of our children!?" (John)

"Not to mention the death of so many students there are several students who are severally injured and will take at least a month to heal, several of them are even suffering from trauma!" (John)

"Also new reports have confirmed that a well-renowned S-ranker Anna Datt, who has been working as a teacher in the academy for quite a few years now, has been seriously injured and an S-rank healer is currently busy healing her, she is suspected to be staying hospitalized for three months at the very least!" (John)

"Although it's a relief that the timely appearance of a new SS-ranker Jin Walt saved her life and she was able to survive this near-death encounter but it is suspected that it will take one or two years for her to return to her full strength again!" (John)

"This means that out of the total 47 S-rankers humanity have, now there are only 24 active ones left, as Mr. Jin has moved up the ranks and Ms. Anna is injured, the rest are either retired or not capable of wielding their full strength anymore!" (John)

"Although the gap can be easily covered by the appearance of a new SS-ranker, we seriously need to focus on improving the number of S-rankers, otherwise it could lead to major problems like disorder and chaos in society-" (John)

*CLICK*

After looking at the same news for a few days Rio got bored and finally decided to shut off the TV.

'Sigh, I am kind of bored now, it has been an uneventful week, nothing happened at all and all I have been doing is training and watching some internet to kill time… now even the internet has filled with this news…' (Rio)

Apparently, the academy has canceled the celebration fest which was going to be carried out after the final exams and a month-long holiday has been declared so that the injured students can recover before moving to their next term. Due to this Rio has been living in his dorm room for a whole week without going out once. (He never really made friends to hang out with…)

Rio got up from the sofa walked to the same old 3d printer and printed a tea for himself. He took the tea and stood near the window while gazing at the setting sun and sky tainted with red and golden sun rays. (Don't forget this is a sci-fi novel, Rio is living in a highly advanced world with real lightsabers in existence.)

Looking at the amazing scenery Rio started to think about the strange events that has happened during the exam.

'In the first place, it doesn't make any sense why did Alverto appear in that dungeon out of nowhere, just like that time when that octopus appeared out of nowhere.' (Rio)

'Alverto didn't mention anything about the 'fragment' like that octopus though. What could be the reason for his sudden appearance? In the first place Alverto never really appeared much in the novel I read, he is basically an extra character in the novel the only demon who had the most appearances was the demon king himself.' (Rio)

'I don't know why an extra character like him would suddenly get involved in the main plot, also when he appeared in front of me… I suddenly lost control of this body, and my body shouted at him all on its own, is it possible that the original Rio's soul which has been merged with mine has transmitted its feelings of hatred in me too?' (Rio)

(Indeed, our mc Rio is a cool-headed guy he could have never lost his cool like that, Rio is the type of character who would not even flinch a little bit if you cut his arm or leg, he is basically that emotionless. I am not bluffing.)

'There's so many questions and no answers…. At least it's a relief I was able to take back control of my body after just a few seconds but strangely every time I think about Alverto something inside me, makes me hate him, well Alverto did kill the previous Rio's parents after all, the drift city massacre was his doing.' (Rio)

'Also there's one more very strange thing, why did Raji croft be absent during all this happened? According to the novel she should have left a while later for the SS-rank dungeon…' (Rio)

Until now, Rio don't know that the absence of Raji from the academy was all his doing. If he hadn't put that book in Fade's bag, the heavenly luck would not have changed the plot, the changes done by Fade's plot armor caused Raji to leave the academy early if she hadn't left early, and there would have been no way that Alverto has dared to show up, even he knows that an SS-ranker is no joke.

(That book was named the 'Grimoire of misfortunes' actually, isn't that a good name…)

Anyone who held that book or got involved in the changes caused by the clash of the SS-rank item the grimoire of misfortune and Fade's plot armor got affected by harm.

Lia held the book first and ended up nearly being tortured by a demon, eventually saved by a divine spirit. Rio held the book and tried to destroy it, in turn, his heart and body suffered destruction but the high-class potion saved his life.

Fade held the book for the second longest time and ended up being tortured by a demon. Anna held the book for the longest time and suffered from destined death, but Jin defied destiny itself and saved her life by opposing the heavenly luck and the effects of the grimoire were also canceled by him.

Everyone else like Liam, Riya, and all the students who died or got injured just got affected by the changes caused by Fade's plot armor and became the innocent victim in this event which was not originally supposed to happen in the novel, which Rio once read.

All this happened just because of a single book. If Rio had left that book with Lia and ignored its existence only Lia would have suffered from the consequences of the misfortune, and all the students who died could have easily been saved. (What do you guys think what would you have done, sacrifice the innocent students or sacrifice your tsundere waifu? Tell me in the comments.)

*DING*

Just when Rio was busy thinking about all the strange things which happened during the final exams, his smartwatch suddenly got a notification from Link:

[Hey Rio, I have already asked Riya and Lia if they are coming or not and they both agreed, we are going to go on a tour of my father's guild after two days, be on time.]

Rio looked at the message and veins popped up on his face…

"When did this guy get Lia's contact info…." (Rio)

Rio crushed the teacup in his hand, and the tea spilled on the ground, but Rio didn't care and a villainous look appeared on his face:

"I am going to crush this guy's **** " (Rio) (You know what he gonna crush I don't need to write…)
