Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy



"Ahhhhhh!"

A woman screamed startling everyone around her.

"What the hell is going on here?"

"There was an explosion after which a few monsters appeared out of thin air."

"Monsters...where are they?"

"They were taken care of by a blue-haired boy and his mate after which the Hunter department appeared and they are now searching for the missing people."A man muttered.

The woman stared at them with disbelief.

Her gaze then turned around toward the mass destruction before her.

Houses had been broken, roads were ruptured, and large barbs of flame rose in the sky giving out a black trail of smoke and devouring the pile of scraps and rubble.

"Don't worry lady. We are out of danger now?"The crowd tried to comfort her, seeing her worried expression.

"Ehhhh!"The woman nodded and walked back trying to get away from the place as quickly as possible.

However, her body trembled like a dried twig in the wind.

"Did that boy also get caught in this?"

"Perhaps, the revelation I gave him might pertain to this."

The woman was none other than Lebana who came here after hearing a deafening sound.

Seers or beings like her who were blessed with the ability to glimpse the future could see different strings of fate wrapping around a person. Tracing a string would allow them to have a glimpse of that person's future.

The spirits of the world assist them to trace the future having maximum chances of happening.

However, the boy that appeared had many strings intertwined with one another.

Each string represents a certain future. A greater number of strings meant a greater number of possibilities.

Generally, a person has two or three strings around them. The luckiest ones who are called as a child of heaven, blessed ones, or children of prophecy had around 20-50 fate strings.

But in the case of that boy, his whole body was wrapped in strings to the point he looked like a mummy making it harder for her to calculate the number of strings. It was as if the fate of the entire world lay in his hands however at the same time several blackish strings seemed to be connected to something dangerous which indicates that this boy is a...

Disaster...A walking calamity...A taboo that should be killed no matter what.

On one hand, the world wants to kill him and on another note, it wants to defend him, seemingly needing his help.

In her whole life, she had never seen such a conflicting fate like this.

"I should return to my clan. This world seems to have become quite dangerous suddenly. I don't want to be caught in the disaster. I am just 42 years old, I have more than hundreds of years to live."

Muttering to herself, she got up and walked forward with a resolute gaze.

.........

The ground he stepped over was mushy and filled with all kinds of filth.

A subtle gasp of mixed emotions escaped from his lips. Even after hardening his heart, he wasn't used to this.

What lay across the hallway, was the corpse of humans who were scraped into pieces by monsters. There were even bodies of kids with their eyes wide open staring at him with the hope of rescue.

Seeing them made Lucas aware of just how cruel this world was. If he was weak and unawakened like them, he would be lying among one of them.

These people were completely innocent still they were pulled into that shit.

"How can someone ignore this?"

"If only you are heartless or you have a heart of steel, you can ignore this as if it meant nothing unfortunately I am not one of them."Lucas clenched his sword trying to ease the sickening filling gripping his heart.

"Having emotions in this world is more troublesome than having none.''

People say to turn a blind eye to others' suffering and focus on your own matters but if everyone started to think of themselves, this world could not have reached where it was.

Just think of a scenario where you come across a person who got into an accident on the road right before your eyes and you just ignore his pleas for help. And one day you find yourself in the same situation, so how can you expect others to help you and save you?

"I hope Goddess Rebecca punishes the culprit and you all rest in peace. At the least, I can make sure no one disturbs your sleep."

Filled with complicated and messy feelings, Lucas strode along the wide hallway and came across stairs that lead downward.

Flames flickered and burst occasionally on the flank torches mounted on the wall. Thinking about whether he should step down or not, the words of the fortune teller woman suddenly reverberated in his mind.

Walk down and find the door leading to the door.

"A dungeon that explodes and has a door leading to the outside."

"Interesting," Lucas mumbled, walking down the stairs while thinking about Lebana.

"It seems she was not a scammer, still if she had known about this she should have at least warned me not to go through here. If I had taken a different route, I would not have been caught in such a way."

"That woman must have learned some half-assed things and is trying to show off."

He can only calm himself as there is no use in crying over split milk.

"Ehhh!"

Lucas's eyes perked up on hearing a whimpering voice combined with a soft growl.

He was on the last step of the stairs and it was pretty dark. Raising his sword and extending forward to weigh his right arm, he ignited a small fireball to light the area.

He stepped down and hardly had taken a step.

Swish!

Something came out of the darkness however Lucas somewhat expected a situation like this, thrust his sword forward.

CLANG!

His sword was caught in something. His hands trembled due to the strong gripping force chewing his sword.

Lucas, trying to hold his sword firmly, pulled it back while raising his left hand igniting a fireball.

The rays of light cleared the darkness exposing a huge wolf with a reddish coat of thick fur.

The wolf had a huge maw with a metallic cage-like structure over it. The fangs embedded in metal were a matter of trouble.

After struggling for some time, the monster spat out a pained cry and stepped back.

Lucas was shoved back and stumbling upon the heightened edge of the stair he crashed on the stair step.

The wolf takes a step back and lunges at Lucas.

Though it was a dangerous situation and Lucas's heart was throbbing against his chest wildly, after going over several four-lived creatures he was somehow used to this and felt calm as never before.

Lucas threw the fireball straight inside the wolf's maw. The wolf, feeling something in his maw, closed its mouth and a bursting sound was heard.

Its maw swelled and puffed, making it spit a painful roar. To Lucas's surprise, the fireball did not make the wolf's head explode which might be due to its metallic internal.

The wolf coughed violently letting fumes of dark smoke and dried silts of blood.

Lucas stood up, and stomped the ground, pouncing on it.

With swift agile movement, he stepped over the neck and his sword slid through the skin like butter. At the same time, he smashed his knee over its snout and slumped it on the ground making a cracking sound.

[You have killed a mid-1-Star. You have gained 1700 experience points.]

Lucas got up and took a moment to recover, gulped down a few drops of water. Put a jerky in his mouth and then stretched his body to check for any discomfort.

Making sure everything was fine, he walked forward.

He did not know how many monsters were there nor did he know how many days would take to get out. Though he was physically good, he was mentally exhausted.

He just got out of the dungeon in the late afternoon and now he found himself in another shit. He needs to conserve his strength and take proper breaks to replenish himself.

Lucas laid the siege and ambushed a few more. He observed the oddities in every monster and concluded that the monster specimens here were quite different which might be due to artificial parts to strengthen them.

"This place is quite nefarious," Lucas muttered, chopping down another monster. It was then Lucas noticed another anomaly, the monster who was coming at him seemed to avoid a certain place on the floor.

Lucas, trying to ascertain his guess, taunted some monsters and let them chase him. With his flash steps, he could run early 2-Star making him the fastest among here.

Noticing them closing by, Lucas turned at the corner passage and jumping over the fallen pillar, rolled down towards the cracked wooden door.

The monster following him jumped over the pillar but as they got closer, they let out shrieks.

WOOOOOOOOOO

WOOOOOOO

GRRRRRRRRR!

Their ears and tails drooped down. Lucas noticed the hair on their body becoming erect and the violent monsters turned into docile puppies out of nowhere.

"What is this place?"

"Is something dangerous lying in there?"Lucas muttered trying to sense any danger.

However neither he could feel any nor his sixth senses tingled giving him any warning.

Dusting his clothes, Lucas slightly pushed the cracked door with a resolute expression wanting to know what was in there.

CREAK!

The upper hinge of the door broke and the door slid downwards with a bam.

Lucas tried to prevent the door from falling but just then heard a scream making him jump out in fear, and his heartbeat ceased for a moment.

ARRGGGHHHHHHHHH!
