Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy

Chapter 161 161:Visiting Frost Household

?

"Hey, Rose you have become so much stronger after getting the blessing, it seems I can't catch up to you in this life."A saddened voice emerged from her lips as a beautiful face frowned with a pitiful look making the onlooker heartbroken.

"It's your fault for not working hard," Rose spoke with a chuckle.

"Hmm! I am working very hard. It's just you didn't see it. You are naturally gifted in every aspect."Helena's yellow eyes looked down at Rose's chest and then she looked at her.

"Even this area is way bigger than mine."

"Stop your weird thoughts."Rose hit her head, making her pout.

Rose and Helena who were walking through the corridor while teasing one another suddenly stopped seeing a boy appearing before them.

Rose and Helena's bodies became stiff seeing the boy's shy expression.

Before Helena could speak something, the boy kneeled and extended his rose towards Helena.

"Dear lady, will you be my valentine?"

A hush silence prevailed for a moment and Helena's eyes wished for a moment.

Rose, sensing the gravity of the matter, decided to stand aside and let her friend handle the matter.

The student walking around stopped to watch the show.

"Did he just propose to her in front of everyone?"

"Is he an idiot?"

"What do you mean by an idiot? It's just his gut way bigger than that."A boy spoke, applauding for his fellow mate.

"I didn't think he would keep his word and accept the dare."

"Helena accept it."

"Helena don't reject him."

The few girls giggled and started cheering for Helena.

Helena took a deep breath after hearing the murmur and asked"Who are you?"

CRACK!

No one knew where but all of them could feel something cracking.

The boy who had just been stabbed spoke with a smile"Dear lady, my name is Sam. I am from class A-7."

"So?" Helena tilted her head.

Black lines appeared over the boy's head.

"So, lady, please accept this."

Helena raising her brows gave him a deep look and under everyone's astonishing gaze picked up the rose however before the boy could rejoice she threw it down and stepped over it.

"Accept your head. I don't even know you and you want me to accept your proposal. Are you itching for a beating?"Helena screamed and stomped the rose.

"Lady, don't be angry, we can slowly cultivate your feeling," Sam said with a pitiful gaze.

"Scram!"Helena's eyes glowed coldly.

"Are you going or should I beat the shit out of you."

"No, I am leaving."Sam stood up and ran away in fear.

Helena then turned towards everyone who just lowered their gaze and walked on their way.

"Can't you reject him a bit gently?"Rose spoke with a sigh.

"These people don't give up like that.''Helena snorted.

"You are quite fortunate in this aspect."

"Huh?" Rose tilted her head in confusion.

"Your charm is greater than mine, that's why I never received any confession," Rose said with a smile.

"That's your delusion. You haven't received a confession because the last time someone spoke about this, your Prince Charming, beat the hell out of that guy and declared that he will fight to the death if anyone dares to have thoughts about you."

"What?" Rose's eyes shone with disbelief hearing this and the image of Frederick appeared in her eyes after which she blushed a bit.

''That guy! I will teach him a lesson after he returns.''

"You will teach him a lesson or reward him.''Helena teased.

....

Lucas snapped his finger and tapped on the windowpane with a hint of anxiousness.

"Lucas."

"Hmm!"

"I know, I am being a hassle but don't do this in front of Father. Just sit there calmly and speak about your opinion and yeah, please stop making that look as if you are going to war."

Lucas narrowed his eyes and stared at Frederick for a moment.

"Frederick, if Parth holds a hearty conversation with Duke, what would happen?''

Frederick gulped his saliva. His body shivered just imagining the scenario.

Parth would surely be kicked out or thrown out of the mansion.

"Your expression says it all."

"Come on, you are not Parth. And my Father isn't that strict. Maybe he is a little."

"Hahhahaha!"

A chuckle echoed from the front.

"Young Master, I didn't think you would fear the Lord after putting up a front against him a few years ago.''An old man sitting at the front spoke.

"I am his son. At least, I have to pretend to be afraid otherwise he would lose his face."

Looking at their interaction, Lucas sighed.

It hadn't been days since he returned when the sudden invitation letter struck like thunder.

Duke Frank invited him for an official meeting.

The product that Lucas is gonna sell might be a hot commodity and help him to secure a market, but it can't run for a longer period due to competition. 

The moment the nobles realise the potential of the shield orb and advanced guns, they would try their best to destroy his business by copying things.

Though it was something that James had invented with hard work, it can be reverse-engineered with enough manpower.

Frederick had gone through this but he had the backing to avert those nobles but he didn't have any.

So, to gain a footing, Lucas applied for a patent. However, the process of patenting was quite different here.

For a patent, five nobles had to acknowledge the product. That's why most merchants showcase their products and gain their support.

With Charles's help, Lucas got Warren's house approvals along with four houses under them. Now once he and Frost's house support nothing can stop his business unless they wanted to offend Warren and Frost's household.

Unlike Charles who is an heir, Frederick couldn't decide things arbitrarily as he isn't an heir so the decisions had to be taken by Duke Frost.

That's what the meeting is gonna be about. Duke Frost wanted to talk with him before giving his approval.

However, this wasn't the most troublesome thing as today was an important day.

"Frederick, can you stop the car for a bit? I need to prepare something here?"

"What do you want to prepare?"Frederick asked in confusion.

"I can't go empty-handed. I need to prepare a gift for Duke."Lucas muttered and then turned towards the old man.

"Sorry for the inconvenience Sir."

The old man was Frost Household Butler so it would be good if he acted as humbly as possible.

"It's okay," Munich spoke with a smile.

"Park at the side."

As soon as Lucas stepped down, he made a run to the corner.

"I have to barge my way into another situation."

On 2nd October, Frederick would visit his mother and Duke Frost who visited the Capital due to some work and on his way, he was going to encounter a stranger who would prove crucial to the upcoming event.

There was nothing mention of the timing of the event except for this place.

"We departed quite early so I don't know if that guy is already here."

The person would have crashed into Frederick's car in the current spot but the moment Lucas noted that this event wasn't happening and they were gonna get out of the street, Lucas immediately stopped them.

"It's troublesome. Can I find that person in these vast crowded streets?"

"I wish I could skip this part but the chain linking to one another might collapse," Lucas said with a sigh and started observing everything.

He wasn't an expert nor did he have any divine sense that could keep an eye on the entire place. Standing there wasn't a feasible option as he might miss the person, so he can only run around in search hoping that he either found that guy or that guy finds Frederick.

"Let's begin with the narrow street. The person would first try to hide himself as much as possible."

As Lucas ran around frantically, after searching around Lucas's ear perked up hearing a commotion. A street hawker stepped forward claiming a person was a thief.

The parties wrestled and triggered a response, causing great chaos.

Lucas was far from the hustle and suddenly saw a haggard dark clothes figure bending down and dashing towards them.

Lucas turned towards the crowd and was stunned to see the peeps whom the crowd was ganging up.

"A 5-Star and 4-Star.This is it."

This person might be chasing him.

Without wasting a moment, Lucas activated flash steps and accelerated towards the dark-clothed man.

Either shoving or dodging, he escaped frantically towards the end of the street.

"What are you doing?"

"You bastard."

People screamed as Lucas clashed against some but he didn't have time to mind them.

Lucas was sure that the person would panic and mistake him as Omen so it was best to just knock him out.

[Shadow Steps]

Lucas jumped into the shadows and slammed his elbow at the man's head and knocked him down.

The people aside who saw this screamed in panic.

Lucas stared at them coldly and explained"This guy is a thief. A heinous criminal. I am just doing my duty to keep the streets safe of sound."

"Be careful and be alert."

After spouting bullshit, Lucas picked up the man and ran away hurriedly without giving the people an opportunity to investigate further.

....

Frederick rolled his sleeves and stared at the watch.

"Why is he taking so long?"Frederick frowned.

"There is a commotion across the street, maybe he was caught in the traffic," Munich spoke.

"Oh, he is..."Munich's words caught short seeing Lucas running frantically as if his life was in danger.

"Lucas..."

Before Frederick could finish his words, the door of the car was flung open and Lucas threw a person's body.

"Frederick, this guy is chased by those omen who attacked the academy. Those members of Omen are looking for him. We need to get out of here and alert the public security.''Lucas spoke hurriedly while gasping heavily.

Frederick frowned upon hearing Lucas's words and his eyes became sharp. 

"Munich!''

"Young Master, leave this to me."

Munich bowed his head and walked out of the car.

His image flickered and vanished from the place.

'Thank God, it worked. I just hope he can catch a few members of Omen so that I can rest assured.'
