Not-So an Extra

"Kiiieekkk!!"

As if the world was slowing down, a monster with human legs suddenly jumped out of the cabin and lunged toward her.

Charlotte's deep blue eyes widened in terror as she saw its monstrous hand hurtling towards her at incredible speed.

"Your Highness!"

A knight swiftly stepped forward and deftly swung his sword, preventing it from reaching the Princess.

—Splat!

"Ah!"

Charlotte jolted in surprise as black blood splattered on her face and clothes.

She stumbled backwards before finally landing on her rear.

"Haa… haa…"

She staggered backward, her breath coming in ragged gasps as she tried to process what had just happened.

—Thud!

The monster's head rolled on the ground followed by its massive body crashing to the wooden planks.

The creature's inky black blood spattered across the floor, staining them with a deep, dark hue.

The knight whirled around, concerned etched on his face as he extended his hand.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

"Haa… haa…"

Charlotte nodded her head whilst gasping for breath.

Her gaze remained fixed on the monstrous creature writhing on the ground.

Its foul stench filled her nostrils, making her stomach churn.

After stabilizing her breath, she grasped the knight's hand and stood up.

"W-what is that?"

The knights turned around and—

—Splat!

Scarlet droplets sprayed through the air as the monster's claws chopped off the knight's head.

Everyone's eyes widened and mouths agape as they tried to take in the gruesome scene before them.

—Thud!

The knight's headless body slumped down, revealing the headless monsters stood triumphantly over it.

"The monster is still alive!"

One of the knights shouted, drawing his sword and charging towards the creature.

Without hesitation, the remaining knights drew their swords and charged towards the monster.

Some of them quickly formed a protective circle around the Princess and began to move towards the back, away from the creature.

"Protect the Princess!"

The knight swung his sword, but to his surprise, the monster leaped backward, evading his attack.

Reacting quickly, the Elementalist unleashed a wind bullet and it struck into the monster's legs.

—Splat!

The beast's legs burst into a shower of shattered bone and chunks of meat, spraying black blood in every direction.

The floor was quickly coated in a thick layer of inky blood, leaving the creature writhed in agony.

Unexpectedly, the monster propelled itself into the air with a powerful thrust of its hands and landed on the body of a knight, causing him to fall backwards onto the ground.

"Huuaa!!"

Without delay, the monster brandished its razor-sharp claws and slashed the knight's throat, sending spurts of crimson blood shooting into the air.

The blood pooled around the knight's body, and the smell of iron filled the air.

"How come it is still alive?!"

The knight's exclamation was filled with palpable frustration, his voice echoing through the deck.

The monster had lost its head and legs, yet how come it was still alive?

Was there no way of defeating it?

Soon, an Elementalist chanted and shot out a wind bullet.

It slammed into the monster and sent it hurtling to the side.

"Kkiieekkk!!"

The monster writhed and twisted on the ground, struggling to flip its body.

At that moment, a knight rushed in and stabbed it right in the chest.

—Bang!

As the tip of his flame sword struck something hard, the monster eventually stopped moving.

"Haa… haa…"

The knights gasped for air, their sweat-soaked bodies heaving with exhaustion.

Just as they believed the battle was over, a brutal reality crashed down upon them with full force.

"Kiieekkk!!"

"Kiieekkk!!"

A dozen incomplete Chimera burst out of the cabin, their grotesque forms lurching and writhing as they charged ferociously at the knights.

"Aaarrgghh!!"

"Huaaa!! Help!!"

A Chimera descended upon the knight, its weight sending him crashing to the ground on his back.

The monster's sharp claws slashing the man's face.

"Aaarrgghh!!"

The knight screamed in pain as the beast's claws cut deep into his skin, and continued its relentless assaults.

Red blood stained the wooden floor as the sharp talons ripped through his flesh.

"Kiieekkk!!"

On the other side of the deck, the Chimera was seen viciously pulling off a knight's left arm.

"Aarrgghhh!!"

The man howled in pain as the beast ripped his limb from its joint with a sickening crunch.

Blood splashed the ground when the arm separated from the man's body.

The Chimera threw the arm aside before jumping away and crawling towards a new target.

Charlotte covered her mouth in horror as she watched the scene unfold, her body trembling with fear.

Her eyes widened in terror and her breaths became shorter as the Chimera continued its rampage.

Everywhere the beast went, it brought death and destruction with it.

It was the same as the nightmare that came to life; it was pure chaos.

The knight's screams of agony echoed through the air, and the floor had turned into a puddle of blood.

"It's impossible to defeat them!!"

The knight shouted with desperation, realizing the sheer number of monsters before them.

No matter how many times they struck the monster, it refused to die.

"Just—what in the world… are they…?"

They muttered under their breath, barely believing what was happening.

Even just defeating one of them took half an hour, let alone a dozen of them.

Terror began to creep into the knights and the crew's heart, their morale decreasing with each passing moment.

They had no idea what to do.

Was this the end for them?

Only.

—Splat!

"Kkiiekk!!"

Suddenly, the monster plummeted to the ground with a hole in its chest.

Black blood erupted in the air as the monster flung backward.

—Splat! —Splat! —Splat!

"Kiieekkk!!"

And one after another the Chimera slumped down.

"Wh-what is happening?"

—Whizz!

A sudden whizzing sound pierced the air, followed by a blinding flash of white light that struck the monsters.

—Splat!

The monster exploded into a grotesque display of flesh and gore.

They turned towards the source of the attack, and saw a young boy with striking white hair standing on the ship's bowsprit, with two glowing magic circles formed on either side of him.
