Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy



"Damn, what are we going to do now? There is not a single window on the ground floor?"Parth grumbled wondering which kind of shit architecture designed the place.

"It seems, we have to enter by breaking the front door," Frederick spoke with a sigh.

They wanted to enter as quietly as possible so that the perpetrators might not run away and alert external forces.

"I have a way. I can open the front door quickly. All you need to do is kill them."Roan muttered while making a death hand sign drawing a line over his neck.

"Roan, stop getting influenced by Parth," Frederick spoke solemnly.

"What? When did I influence him?"

Parth complained but Frederick cut him in the middle.

"Parth stop screaming. Spray the scent that Lucas gave us. We need to mask the smell of blood otherwise it may draw the monster's attention.

'Hmph! Now I know why that bastard went above leaving us here.'Parth snorted.

After taking care of the corpses, Roan slid his finger through the gap in the door and then looked back.

"Ready?'"Roan asked.

Frederick and Parth taking a deep breath gave a slight nod.

Roan, making a rough estimation of the place of the hinges, places his hand through the gap, and chants the spell.

[Wind Cutter]

A highly condensed mass of wind as sharp as a blade emerged from the tip of his finger.

CLINK!

A subtle clinking sound echoed and Roan pushed open the door on hearing the sound.

The moment the door opened, as if an arrow was released from a bow Frederick and Parth moved like a gust of wind, leaving behind a trail of afterimages.

Two people guarding inside were leaning against the door in a half-sleepy state but they snapped out on hearing a subtle clink.

However, before they could react a cold chilling sensation passed through their throat and the next moment, their lips kissed the cold ground.

Without wasting any more time, Frederick and Roan commenced their assault.

......

Lucas's body froze as he caught a glimpse of a thin figure at the corner of the bed.

It was a naked figure. On her snow-white skin, countless bruises and scars of swollen patches of blue were craved all over her body. The woman's eyes were stretched wide and were filled with resentment. It seems she was assaulted and abused brutally.

His emotions became frenzy seeing the abuse she had gone through. It took a moment for him to realize that she was dead as there was no movement of breathing.

A man entered and searched for the source of the sound and gazed around.

"Didn't this bitch die yesterday or is she still alive and trying to escape?"The man murmured, noticing the opened window.

As he took a step, he saw the disarrayed carpet on the floor near the sofa.

It was then, he felt a soft presence behind it. Pretending to be clueless, he walked towards the window but as he reached it, he pushed the sofa aside and shouted.

"I found...."

He choked in the middle, finding no one.

"I...Impossible, I felt something."

Swish!

"Ahhhhhhhhh!"

Shuddering, he leapt forward feeling the pain over his back. A diagonal cut mark appeared over his back. Screaming in agony, he rolled on the ground.

Lucas felt disgusted seeing the white ceremonial dress of the Priest.

Lurching his body, feeling the searing pain, as the man turned around, he saw a foot crashing down on him.

BANG!

A loud thumping noise echoed. Lucas stomped over the man's chest, breaking his sternum. The ground creaked with a small crack emitting a faint shock wave.

"Kyakkkkkkkkkk!"

The man groaned heavily in pain coughing a mouthful of blood from his lips. A look of injustice flashed over his eye as he stared at Lucas with shallow breathing.

He opened his lips to suck in air greedily but sharp pain made it difficult for him to breathe.

"Do you want to live?"

"You dar.."

The man swallowed his words, seeing a sword flashing right beside his face. A small cut appeared over his cheek through which blood trickled.

It was then he heard a cold voice that made his body shiver.

"Choose..."

"Do you want to die or answer my questions? You have just one second?"Lucas spoke, drawing his sword.

"What do you want to know? I will speak so don't kill me."

"What is this place? What's going on here?"

Though his tone sounded cold, Lucas found it hard to control himself. Even he did not know what he was feeling currently.

"I don't know much. We just kidnap children and hand them over here. There is someone who looks over this place but I don't know who it is. This old Church provides a good hiding place for us to carry out our tasks. "The man muttered with a pained expression.

"Is Church involved in this?"Lucas's expression turned grave.

"I don't know. I am not even a true Priest. I am just making an appearance. The Priest nearby registered my name as Priest in Church but I don't have any divine powers. I don't know whether he is a real or fake priest, "The man's voice quivered.

To become a Priest, a person needs to have divinity which is said to be a purer form of mana and some people can convert mana to divinity naturally.

People called it the Blessing of Gods but Lucas guessed whether this had something to do with genes.

"Who is she?"

"That..."The man closed his lips, feeling a dreary suffocation pinning him.

"I asked who she was?"Lucas's voice became louder.

"She is someone whom we picked while kidnapping. She tried to protect the children so we puni..."

Swish!

A golden line was drawn over his neck.

"Beast!"Lucas roared angrily, kicked the decapitated head, and sent it flying.

Lucas gasping heavily tried to calm himself and then walked towards the bed with an uneasy expression.

The woman had a good figure with well-endued proportions. She might have been stunning before, but this was also the reason for her demise.

"God preached that goodness is rewarded with goodness. How laughable?"

His eyes darted across bruises and red lines all over her. He had heard about abuse and violence against women on TV but he had simply shrugged it off before.

However, seeing it close, his heart was strained and crushed helplessly. Imagining someone close to him may suffer such a fate, made him afraid.

This was the first time he had seen a naked woman and it left a bad aftertaste, which he may never forget.

Lucas then pulled the blanket and covered her body. He then closed her eyes.

"Lady, I promise you."

"These bastards. I will send them after you so hope you find peace and have a good life after rebirth."

Taking a deep breath, Lucas turned around.

His gentle soft expression took a sudden change.

His eyes become bloodshot filled with the ferociousness of a bloodthirsty beast.

TAP! TAP!TAP!TAP!TAP!

Lucas did not hide the creaking sound that emerged from his step rather he stepped on the floor loudly.

There was no need to hide anymore.

BANG!

Lucas kicked the door.

The loud noise alerted everyone.

At once, dozens of people jumped out and all of them were awakened.

Dozens of eyes glanced at him. The men were stupefied on the spot seeing a kid walking out of the room.

"How did you enter?"

With a squeal, dozens of men jumped at him.

Everyone struck so suddenly that Lucas did not even have the time to assess the situation so he could only trust his instinct. Since his back did not tingle to warn him about the impending danger, he was sure that none of them could harm him.

The agility of the man who threw his fist was quite fast but as if it was natural, Lucas easily leaped over while drawing out his sword.

Dust swept as the floor creaked.

The blade struck the heart of the man. Without taking time to assess his partner's condition, the other one jumped over.

Swish!

Blood dripped and spurted in the air.

Vertical lines were drawn.

Going with the flow, golden lines intertwined with blood, as blades clash against one another in quick succession.

BANG!

Turning back, Lucas threw his dagger which struck the man with great force, making him crash into the wall.

Twisting his torso and bending his body towards the front, Lucas sliced through the air turning three humans into lonely souls with a thunderbolt-like slash.

Chimes of system notifications reminding him about the experience points rang over his ears again and again.

[You have killed an early 2-Star. You have gained 4400 experience points.]

[You have killed a mid-2-Star. You have gained 4700 experience points.]

[You have killed a 1-Star. You have gained 1800 experience points]

[....]

[...]

Glancing at the reign of running humans, heading straight at him. Lucas threw a fireball into the air.

As soon as they appeared near him, Lucas tried to coat his sword in mana even though it was quite minuscule, and slashed through the fireball which made a loud blast igniting the blade with erupting flames.

"Kyyyyyk"

"Arghhh!"

"Damnnnnnn!''

The enemies struggled to death, screaming from the burning sensation passing over to their hearts.

"What the hell is going on?"

"He is just a simple 2-Star and so are we, so why the hell are we having a problem in dealing with a kid?"

The man who watched from the side, cursing loudly, pulled his hair.

His heart was beating crazily in shock.

"Run..."

Noticing the shift in the enemy's attention, he made a mad dash for his life but halfway through his run.

GURGLE!

A blade passes through his chest.

The man's body twitched and blood bubbles appeared on his lips and his eyes became hazy as they met with a fierce emotionless golden gaze.

It was then Lucas's senses screamed.

BOOM!

Lucas ducked down to avoid the blow and then jumped back.

A huge part of the wall behind him was ruptured.

Lucas's expression hardened noticing a 3-Star appearing there.

"Go and kill him."The 3-Star shouted.

Lucas didn't let down his guard.

Taking a deep breath, with an unwavering gaze he met the person looking down at him fiercely.

His goal was simple. Try to enquire and know what's going on and then create disturbances to draw everyone's attention here so that Frederick and Parth could secure the lower floor and free the kids kept down in the huge hall of the Church if there were any.

After freeing them, they would enter here so he just needs to stall time.

"Are you so eager to court death?"Heizen snorted at Lucas.

Raising his sword, Lucas tilted his head with a playful smile.

"Yes, I want to die."

"So, please...I beg you all to come and kill me."Lucas spoke with a mocking gaze infuriating the group of men.
