Reborn as an Extra



Great Freya Academy, Near the Main Gate, Bus Stop.

Wearing casual clothes, Rio stood at the bus stop waiting for the 'Flying Bus' to come. While Rio listened to music with his headphones, the flying bus finally arrived after a few minutes of waiting.

The bus landed on its designated stop and a few passengers got down from the front gate. Rio boarded the bus and after getting his ticket he sat on the seat at the very back of the bus. (Don't think of it as a regular bus, it looks completely different from the one you see in your everyday life. This thing is called a 'Bus' but it doesn't have any tires, it flies, uses mana stones as fuel, and looks extremely futuristic.)

While Rio glanced outside the window, the bus took off again. 

'This brings back memories…' (Rio)

Just last year Rio used a flying bus to travel around and plunder the various cheats of the protagonist Fade, and now he is doing the same again. 

'I have come a long way on the road of being a professional thief, perhaps someone will write a novel on me one day describing my glorious thieving activities…' (Rio) (Yeah, I am writing a novel on your thieving activities, yeah…)

While looking at the lively city, Rio had various thoughts about this past year. He remembered the time when he first beat up Link and warned Fade to not come near Lia. 

'Many things have happened in just a year…' (Rio)

While thinking about this, Rio opened his status panel. He hasn't glanced at his status for a while now.

'Hmm, I am quite close to the A-rank, it's difficult to believe but it's certainly true… I just need a certain opportunity now…' (Rio)

'Let's grab those cheat items first today, and look for an opportunity to breakthrough on a later date…' (Rio)

Rio shook his head and closed his status panel. 

(The status panel is just a formality for him, he can sense his body's condition much better on his own. He doesn't need any external factor to determine such a simple thing. I just opened the panel so that the readers can see his current condition.) 

…

Silver Household, James's office.

James looked at his daughter who was sitting opposite him, with a serious expression on his face, and said.

"So… how far have you two gone…." (James)

A slight blush appeared on Lia's face.

"W-what do you mean!? Don't tell me this is what you called me for!?" (Lia)

"No, no, by 'far' I mean like…. In the things that couples do these days… I mean, you know…ahem! Forget about it…" (James)

Looking at Lia who had confusion written all over her face, James shook his head in defeat.

'Ugh, don't tell me that my daughter doesn't even know the basics, no one told me it would be this embarrassing to talk about this stuff with your kids…' (James)

Just when James was busy contemplating how to enlighten his idiot daughter about the ways of a maiden, his butler entered the room after a light knock on the door.

The butler brought a large box and placed it on the table in front of James.

James nodded his head to the butler and the butler left the office silently. 

Lia looked at the box in confusion and asked:

"What's this?" (Lia)

"Take a look yourself, it's a gift from me, for getting such good results in the 'Group survival test'…" (James)

"Oh, is that so…" (Lia)

Lia hurriedly opened the box and found a pointed sword inside. The sword shined with cold light and looked very beautiful. 

"Oh! Isn't this our family's traditional weapon! You are giving this to me!?" (Lia)

Lia was surprised by the fact that, James who never let her even touch this sword in her childhood days, was now personally gifting it to her. 

During her childhood, Lia threatened James many times, that she would not eat anything if he didn't give this sword to her, but James ignored her threats and never allowed her to even wander around the armory, where this sword was hidden. And see how times have changed now.

"I can sense it, you have awakened the same abilities the founder of the silver household once had…" (James)

While saying that, James glanced at the white cat lying down on Lia's shoulder and said:

"This sword belonged to the founder and only those who have awakened the silver bloodline to the full potential can inherit this sword…" (James)

"You are more than worthy to wield this weapon now, Lia the 'Mad Demon Sword'… you have earned yourself a name in the world now…" (James)

James's voice contained deep emotions and his true feelings. Lia had made him proud, he couldn't ask for more. 

The figure of little Lia struggling to hold her sword straight during her childhood appeared in James's mind. Now that weak girl's appearance was overlapped by the appearance of proud, confidant, and determined appearance of the grown-up Lia.

'She has grown up, now she doesn't need the support of anyone else, she has found her path… I am sure your mother would be proud of you too Lia…' (James)

"Go and try this sword in the training grounds, get used to it fast and don't fall behind in strength, it would be good if you could stand shoulder to shoulder with the ones you swore to protect…" (James)

Lia nodded at James's remarks.

Lia got up from her seat and walked towards the door of the office with her new sword in her hands. 

James glanced at the white cat.

'I leave her in your care, please be kind to her…' (James)

[Hmph, you worry too much…] (Kai)

James shook his head after hearing the reply from Kai. He knew that as long as a divine spirit like Kai was protecting Lia, there was no need for him to worry about the well-being of his daughter.

'Children grow up so fast, it feels like the day when Lia came to this world was just yesterday…' (James)

While Lia left the office James continued to reminiscence about the past and time continued to pass.

Nicolas District, Grand Market.

The flying bus landed and Rio finally got off the bus after half an hour of travelling. 

Yawn~

'Finally here…' (Rio)

Removing his headphones, Rio stretched his arms and started walking towards the Grand Market.

'Let's start the stealing spree, hehe' (Rio)

Rio glanced around him with excitement and an evil smile appeared on his face.
