Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy
Chapter 34 34:Dungeon Trial[3]A day before the dungeon trail...
Stretching his sore body, Frederick muttered with satisfaction"Working out here is surely different from working out alone."
"Seeing everyone doing their best motivates you and you can learn many things by watching others."
Stopping in his tracks, his eyes fixed on a boy with a strange expression.
"Isn't this Lucas? Except me, he also trains till late at night?"
Drawing near, he raised his hands.
"Hello!"
Pffttt!
Lucas who just took a sip of water spat in bewilderment seeing Frederick.
Lucas's eyes blinked a couple of times.
'Damn...I thought he had left already.'
Trying to maintain a blank face, Lucas greeted him.
"Hello, Sir Frederick."
Frederick gave him a weird gaze and asked"Why do you address me as Sir?"
"It's because my admiration for you runs as boundless as waves of the ocean."
Frederick's lips twitched and he shook his head. He had already become familiar with Lucas treating him like this.
This guy was a bit weird. He mostly stays alone.
Frederick at first mistakes him for an introvert but he has seen Lucas capable of interacting with others when the other side starts first but he always tries to stay away from him for some reason.
While nobles hated Frederick, those who had low status mostly flocked towards him to use him but this guy ran away from him as if he was a disease.
"Nice to meet you again. I need to go now."Lucas waved his hand and slipped in before Frederick could say anything else.
However, Lucas halted his steps for a moment and glanced back at him.
Hesitation and dilemma were evident on Lucas's face.
Looking at Frederick with a serious expression.
"You should be careful tomorrow and especially, beware of strangers."
"Yeah, thanks but why?"Frederick asked with a bewildered expression.
"Are you seriously asking me that? Shouldn't we keep our guard against a stranger, "Lucas turned back with those words.
Frederick stared in disbelief and spoke out"Wait! Is this why he stays alone? Is he betrayed by some stranger previously due to which he has trust issues or is it something else?"
"He also said to be careful tomorrow."
"Interesting," Frederick muttered rubbing his chin.
"Things seem to be going differently today."
A playful grin appeared on Frederick's face.
.....
"Senior, it seems you have a grave misunderstanding."
"I ranked second from the top, not from the bottom."
Frederick spoke without turning back.
Rick swallowed his saliva as the tip of the spear appeared over his throat just when his fist was a few inches away from Frederick's head.
"How?"
With an expression of confusion and fright, Rick backed away. His rear was drenched in a cold sweat.
"It doesn't matter how I know, does it?"
"Let's think about what's going to happen to you now. Your expulsion is guaranteed once the Student Council finds out."Frederick spoke with a smile pointing his spear at Rick.
"Then, I will just kill you here."
"You don't have any evidence against me so once you are eliminated I can frame you."
Frederick chuckled wondering why this idiot told him about his plans.
Rick declaring his intention appeared before Frederick instantly and threw his fist catching Frederick in surprise.
There is a great difference between 4-Star and 3-Star still Frederick reacted just in time surprising Rick.
He had vast fighting experience and probably more than a second year.
He channeled his strength and decisively thrust his spear meeting the blow head-on but as the tip of the spear smashed into the metal knuckles, a word of ridicule reached his ears.
"Foolish!"
That was the last thing Frederick heard before he found himself crashing into the tree and spitting blood.
Frederick tilted his head dodging Rick's foot and slamming into the tree. The shockwave threw Frederick aside.
Frederick rolled on the ground and got up to find Rick swinging his fist at him.
Frederick used the shaft of the spear to block the blow, however, he did not put much strength to block the blow head-on and loosen his foothold a bit...
CLANG!
Reverberating a metallic sound, Frederick's body spun up because of the force of the attack and he used this momentum to throw a kick.
BANG!
The momentum generated by Frederick using Rick's attack coupled with the surprise maneuver caught Rick off guard and Frederick's kick whacked his shoulder slamming him down on the dirt and making him feel as if he had been swatted like a fly.
"Youuuu!!" Rick got up with a shout filled with anger and punched Frederick with everything he had got.
"Shit!"Frederick wiped off the blood from his lips and started to defend.
BANG!BANG!BANG!BANG!
Metallic vibrations resonated one after another followed by strong gales.
Frederick felt his hands becoming numb. In a way, he was beaten on one side unable to fight back.
Each attack pushed him back. Drag marks were formed all over the place and the soles of his shoes had been worn out due to friction.
"I will die if this goes on. Do I have no way but to use the last resort?"
Frederick contemplated whether to use his blessing or not and suddenly found his back touching the back of uphill land.
Finding himself in the corner, Frederick clutched his spear tightly waiting to activate his blessing.
"It's over."
Rick rushed at Frederick raising his fist while trying to attack with all his might but before he could do that.
CLANG!
With the might of heavy bombardment, an arrow flew and struck his hand.
"Kayak!"
Rick shrieked and dodged the onslaught of arrows one after another. He rolled over and took cover behind a tree only to find a dagger hurling his way toward him.
Rick swayed and shrank back thinking the dagger would strike the tree but the dagger spun around, took a curve in the air, and flew at him with an oblique trajectory.
"What the!"Rick reacted quickly and flicked his fist.
The dagger bounced back after colliding against his gauntlet but just as the bounced dagger rose in the air, another dagger tearing the air hit the other with a clanging sound and transferred the momentum to it.
SHIING!
The dagger after being hit spun around, and like a bullet shot at Rick and pierced his shoulder blade startling him.
It was such a miraculous scene that even Frederick was flabbergasted for a moment.
"Ahhh!"
He screamed and pulled out the dagger. In doing so, blood spurted out from his body. Holding his wounded shoulder, he ran frantically to look for another cover.
"Just why the hell did I accept this task?"
"I shouldn't have let my greed take control over me."
Rick who started to repent on realizing his mistake felt a tingling sensation on his back. He looked back, only to see a huge bolt of lightning transversing the sky and flying straight at him.
"Kayak!"
Bolts of destructive lightning struck him one after another rendering him immobile still this was not enough to take him down.
"Frederick, we should run. This is not enough to take him down."
Hearing a soft voice, Frederick looked at Parth and Rose running towards him.
"Didn't you find any senior?''
Frederick knew something like this might happen so he asked Parth to look for a member of the Security Department.
Parth shook his head.
"I couldn't find them no matter how much I shouted and by chance, I happened to stumble upon her. I told her about this and we came here as quickly as possible."
Swish!
They became alert when a shadow flashed before them and with a surprised hit, he knocked down Rick.
"I got a hang of the situation. I will take care of this."
A senior appeared with a solemn expression dragging Rick.
Frederick looked at him skeptically and asked"How can we believe you? What if you two are on the same side."
"Look here."The boy spoke and activated the watch.
"I am contacting Ian right before you."
"Hesh! What happened now?"
Hesh conveyed everything that transversed here to Ian.
"Hmm... Bring that bastard who is increasing my workload."
"I will tear that mf down."
"And Derrick."
"It's Frederick."
"Haaa...whatever.For this guy's stupidity, I will tell you valuable information as compensation."
"The boss monster is rampaging in the southwest direction from here. You can go there."
"What kind of compensation is this?"Parth shouted angrily, startling me.
"I want points. Do you understand?"
"Compensate me for wasting my time?"
"This event may develop a trauma in me and I may not be able to trust anyone in the future."
"You have wasted my time in playin....I mean hunting..."
'He was going to say playing around.'Frederick, Rose, and Hesh thought inwardly.
"What do you mean by compensation? It's this guy's fault, not mine. He acted on his own."Ian replied.
"But senior, this wasted a lot of our precious time," Frederick spoke sternly.
"Can't you give us more points? This happened due to your negligence."
"Huhhh....what did you say?"
"Hello...Hello. The signal is getting weak. I can't hear, so I will meet you afterwards, bye."
CRIZZZZ
Ian cut off the call.
"Holy shit!"
"This guy is more shameless than me," Parth grumbled.
Hesh"..."
Frederick"....."
Rose"..."
"What?"Party asked with an innocent gaze.
"Did you just accept that you are shameless?"
"No....You all heard wrong. I never spoke that, "Parth spoke with a self-righteous tone without a hint of embarrassment.
'It seems Ian had a contender....No, Ian cannot match his guy's shamelessness."
