Transmigrated as side character, I will steal all the heroines

Chapter 76: Changes

Chapter 76: Changes

A little while ago, somewhere in an unknown forest on a different continent.

A shrill scream exploded out inside a ruin hidden in the forest.

"Uwaaaahhhk?!"

An archeologist plopped down on his butt.

His legs had lost all strength, and he could only crawl on the floor to run away. But when he realized that he only managed to corner himself against a wall, despair quickly dyed his expression.

"Oh, dear God, what have I released into this world!"

The archeologist madly searched for his phone, trying to warn the world about the incoming catastrophe, but before he could send the messages.

"Keuruk."

*roll*

His head was already severed from his body, and his blood scattered around like a painting on the floor.

" Stupid human, I must thank you for releasing me back into this world. Now rise, as I will let you see your own world shrink into the depth of hell."

An unknown man with a black robe came out from the darkness, and with a wave of his hand, black shapes began to slowly rise up from the archeologist's corpse.

Back to Ray's side, he was currently attending school again with Rena and Aiko.

When he called his parents last night, telling them that he was safe, his parents nagged him a lot for missing without telling them. But in the end, they were glad that Ray was able to return home safely.

Another important thing to note was Ray's parents forced him to enter the school with another identity. His missing case was closed and he was declared dead, so using his original identity would not be a good idea.

Therefore, here he is. Back to the first grade of high school with Aiko and Rena, as Ray Vermillion, a distant cousin of the Vermillions.

" Ray, you shouldn't be daydreaming in the middle of the class!"

" Yes, Ray-Nii-chan, even though I won't mind taking care of you all your life, It doesn't justify you to slack off in the class."

With the two girls on his side nagging him about paying attention to the class, Ray could only sigh and tried his best no to fall asleep.

The current topic the teacher was explaining was about basic knowledge of spirit beast, and since Ray was able to get the knowledge from Aina, he was bored to death during this time.

[ Only dumb people will forgo a chance to learn, now Aina knows why your intelligence was stuck at 105 even with Aina's help.]

' *Sigh* Can't you just let me go for this one time.'

Ray didn't bother with Aina and continued listening to the boring lesson while trying his best to kept his eyes open.

Oh, why was Aiko that bold to Ray? It would be easier to learn if we were to get some flashbacks to last night's conversation between Ray and Aina.

--Flashback Starts--

" Hey Aina, I still have some curiosity about the thing that happened in the Special Dungeon. How could Skye control those mad beasts and the boss monster?"

[ It was that strange bead host, Because of host arrival, Skye has suffered many losses, so the will of the world decided to interfere directly and give him that special bead. With that bead power, he could temporarily unseal Gugiga and use Gugiga's dark corruption to control other spirit beasts.]

Now everything made a little sense to Ray. But this explanation from Aina made him realize a bigger threat to him, The will of the World. It seems this thing holds the highest authority in those worlds and could pose some danger to him.

Though it's pointless to think this much right now, he was still far too weak to be able to harm the will of the world, so he needs to get stronger quickly to free himself from those threats.

" Oh, by the way, I still remember that I have some missions with a time deadline. What happened to them?"

[ Hohoho, finally you remember host. Since you were teleported to 3 years in the future, then naturally, you have failed the missions. Now feel the wrath of the punishment, Omae wa mou shindeiru!!!]

" Nani…"

[ Nah, JK. During that 3 years, Aina has taken a peek at other multiverses, and one of the characters from a universe I have liked was pretty cool when he said that, so Aina wanted to try it once.

Jokes aside, the host was pretty lucky. A week after your disappearance, Kyouko and Anna learned about the onsen case, so they forced the onsen manager to quickly transfer the fund into your account, solving the first mission. And the other mission was solved when Aiko was about to get harassed by some thugs. Chongky came out and save Aiko, making her realize that you always protected her from the dark and pushing her affection for you to 90.]

--Flashback End--

"Huff…, finally, the boring lesson ended."

" I think it was pretty interesting though, the knowledge was fresh, and I could learn new things. I'm pretty sure the others also like the lesson."

" No, only study addicts like you like those boring lessons. Sometimes I wonder whether you are an M since you really like to torture yourself with those hellish lessons."

"……"

" Speaking of which, how are your ranking in this school, Aiko?"

The ranking Ray was asking was the School spirit beast ranking.

Since the era of spiritual awakening, the number of people who could get into a contract with a spirit beast was getting larger.

And because spirit beast was getting super popular, the educational government decided a policy to make a spirit beast ranking to encourage the student with spirit beast to get stronger.

" Hehe, glad you asked Ray-nii. I am currently ranking third in the first year, and number 19 in the whole school. Those 2nd and 3rd year were all monsters, and my flame rooster was too weak against them."

Beside Aiko, a small figure suddenly appeared and reveal itself as a small rooster with fiery wings.

" Cluck-Cluck-!!"

Worthy of a descendant from the Vermillion family, her spirit beast was a strong fire type, but sadly its bloodline was too weak and thus limited its growth.

However, with help from the flame of life, this spirit beast would get his bloodline enhanced and soon be reborn into a phoenix,

---Bonus----

[ By the way, Aina still has a piece of special information for you, host. Since the time in the massage parlor, it seems that Roa and Reiji have been meeting each other frequently, and Aina gets some info that Road had been giving birth to their first son a few months ago.]
