Reborn as an Extra
42 Betrayed by a tree!?
A certain snowfield in an unknown place.
In each direction you look you can only see snow. In all directions the snow can be seen scattered to the horizon, while the sky continuously pouring more snow on the ground.
A young man with black hair and black pupils can be seen walking with a slow pace, he is obviously having difficulties crossing this snow. Sometimes he suddenly stops walking and as if avoiding something takes a small detour then continues to walk in the same direction.
And sometimes he uses his skill to instantly cross over a huge area.
After continuously walking for who knows how long, he found a dried up tree covered in snow. The boy first inspected around the tree and when he was fully sure he sat beside the tree and started to recover his mana, which he needed to do urgently.
The winds are chilly enough to froze your lungs if you inhale them. Eventually you will die due to lack of breath. A miserable death indeed.
'This place is more dangerous than I thought. Sigh~' (Rio)
While recovering his mana Rio started to think about what happened after he came here.
After, Rio successfully avoided that deathtrap while landing. He was looking at the trap but suddenly a spear came flying at his face, if not for the fact that he used his skill concentration at that very moment he would have long been dead now. His improved reaction speed is the reason why he is still alive.
'It was a good decision to visit Arte's tower before I came here, otherwise my corpse would have been buried under the snow' (Rio)
Things didn't end at that single spear though, before he could stabilize more spears came flying at his face. It was as if these spears knew where he will be landing next and where his face will be.
'My face is ordinary and can't be considered handsome but that doesn't mean you would dig some holes in my head, that won't make me look better' (Rio)
Not mention these spears were not stopping, they all were coated with such a thick layer of poison that you could even see their weird tip colour, Rio already determined that if he got even a little scratch from that poison coated spear he will be dead in a very short time.
But eventually Rio figured out what was going on here. Just like every trap needs something to make it trigger these spears are also triggered by a mechanism, Rio determined that the ground under this snow is that mechanism. As long as he will put his weight on this snow the mechanism will trigger and spears will continue to fly.
There was only one solution that Rio could think for now it is:
[Concentration!]
[Body Strengthening!]
After putting these two buffs just 'run' like crazy, untill you reach an area where there's no spear-firing traps. That's the temporary solution he came up with. Yeah, I know this is a crude method but i don't have the support of a Wind mage. Atleast they could cast a single floating spell or something on me.
Anyway, coming back to the topic, Rio also found that these withered trees which appears at a certain distance can be considered safe zones and he can rest there. For two consecutive times that was true.
But then the third tree betrayed, when Rio was just about to sit under it, that damn tree exploded creating a huge explosion which even blasted off the snow scattered in a ten metre radius around that tree.
You could already guess what would happened to Rio. He was directly blasted off in the sky, his body spined madly in air and looking at the place of landing, those shitty spears came in sight again.
From that time onward Rio lost his trust in trees. Everytime he saw a tree again, he thoroughly investigated around it, after all no one will enjoy sky diving without proper safety measures. (Except some super-humans, obviously.)
He even had to use one of his precious healing potions to recover from the wounds because that explosion was not the main attack. It's after effects are the main attacks. A huge amount of sharp ice blades started to rain in every direction and Rio had run once again to avoid this thing.
It seems he has been running the whole time from when he came in this place but one thing is certain that this is not the end of these traps.
Not to mention this whole place is filled with traps which appears randomly, all the traps are lethal enough to take your life. There are even monster hordes in this god-forsaken place.
After around three hours of that explosion, Rio was liesurely passing through a narrow valley, he knew that generally these shady looking valleys contains dangers, but there was no other way. He had to pass through this place. If he climbed the mountain to avoid this valley it will delay his speed consume a huge amount of mana and there seems to several withered trees on that mountain (nothing personal, Mr.Tree), so he decided to not go there, who knew if that whole mountain was actually made up of explosives, if it really blew then even perfect ranj potions will not be able to heal his body because he will end up as a corpse.
Crossing the valley everything remained good and peaceful, until a sudden uninvited guy showed his face.
'Those damn snow wolves...' (Rio)
Even when Rio is only remembering he can't help but get angry at those wolves. At first he thought it was just a few wolves blocking his path, he hurriedly killed them all and made his way out of the valley, but who knew that it was actually a huge horde of wolves which were currently migrating somewhere.
That time Rio truly stabbed a hornet's nest, a huge horde of about two-hundred wolves chased him for atleast eight hours non-stop. That was a huge trouble. Although, Rio still killed about seventy or more wolves while running they pursued him until a certain tree saved him. Those wolves left and didn't came near the tree, they even actually ran away from the tree. (Maybe they also knew that trees can explode.)
It was really ironic. Sometimes the tree saved him and sometimes it exploded on his face. Forcing him to use healing potions two times in total.
Returning to the current situation, Rio can't help but look at the tree beside him unconsciously. Who knew when this guy got angry and made him have a great experience of the heights of the sky.
'if not for the fact that I already know that this place is created by my own father, i would have thought that I am deliberately being targeted. Or maybe my own father is targeting me deliberately' (Rio)
While thinking Rio started to move again, it was already around the second day since he came here, he need to get out of this pace faster otherwise, he don't have confidence that he can survive here for more that five days. Not to mention the sunlight is very dim here due those clouds covering the whole sky, there's not even dry wood to burn fire, even those wolves don't leave behind the dead bodies of their comrades. He won't be able to get anything to eat. He didn't encountered a single living creatures except those wolves until now.
'I think this place is actually made according to the survival abilities of a peak B ranker.' (Rio)
Which means Rio should have entered this place at B rank but nothing can be done now. Either you survive till the end or die midway all depends on your willpower now. And certainly Rio have no thoughts of dying here.
Rio looked at the card which brought him here, this card is currently showing the direction he need to go. An arrow symbol can be seen on this card. This symbol always pints at the direction he need to proceed, it's functions are similar to a compass.
Due to which Rio know where he need to go. If he had to find out the way himself it would have taken more than a whole month's time to reach his goal. Which would have been a disastrous thing. The academy would have not tolerated his absence for such a long time without any prior notice, the academy is very strict in their rules and regulations, they would have directly suspended him. Obviously privileged people like Link won't be affected much due to their huge background and children of luck will also not suffer the threat of suspension but extras like Rio are bound to be affected.
Rio shook his head and stopped thinking about these things for now.
'Being an extra have advantages and disadvantages both, but i still prefer being an extra.' (Rio)

Authors note: Question of the day!
Which perspective would you choose if you get transmigrated and have the chance to choose?
1. Protagonist (Although you will have a great life at the end. You will suffer the mockery of people around you and in order to do even a single thing you will have to first face-slap people, only then can you live peacefully.)
2. Villain (A high risk profession. Will have to risk life everyday fighting protagonists and their thick plot armors)
3. Extra (You will get no privelage and will be abandoned by heaven, when you transmigrate in this type of character, it would not be even certain that you will even have a decent name. But at the bed of the day you will enjoy freedom a blessing on its own.)
