Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra

"You have been unconscious for three hours."

Lucas sighed in relief.

At that time, a knock rang on the door, interrupting the conversation between the Priest and Lucas.

Opening the door, a man entered with an embarrassed expression.

Lucas identified him with a single glance.

The man patted the priest and said, "Angelo, I will take it from here."

"I hope it's nothing serious otherwise I will raise a complaint against you for hurting weak students," Angelo grumbled and left after giving him a cold shoulder.

Derek almost choked when he heard this.

'Weak...'

'This kid just killed a person right before my eyes.'

"Hmmm!"

Derrick gave a slight cough and said"Student Lucas, first of all, I apologize for hurting you without understanding the situation fully."

"It's okay, I would have reacted the same way as you did, "Lucas answered.

"Now let's come to the important part."

"After you kill him, I checked that guy and I found traces of the Magi. I have explained the situation and handed him over to the higher authority."

The mana that runs inside Demons is violent and darkish in nature and is referred to as Magi. So, one can simply identify a demon disguised as a human by checking the mana.

Lucas's back was drenched in sweat for a moment.

Sensing Lucas's thoughts, Drek gave a bitter smile.

"Don't worry except for the Vice Principal and some of his trusted people no one will know about it."

"The information about victims and you had been wiped out and the scene had been cleaned by me."

"No one will look for trouble with you, I guarantee you.''

At that moment, Lucas wanted to say.

'Guarantee my ass. Trusting you all is like handing the key of my vault to the thief and asking him to safeguard it.'

'If you would be so trustable then Demons wouldn't have sneaked in here.'

"And your contributions have not gone unnoticed."

"We will award you with 1000 academy points for now and will provide you with a better dorm. We also provide you with more points later."

Lucas whose expression was down suddenly gleamed on hearing 1000 points.

You can exchange resources ranging from equipment, potions, skills, and martial arts from the academy via points.

Attending a class would give you one point and you could be rewarded with points by the Professor if you performed well in his class.

From the last term of the second year, you could earn points by doing missions.

'I hope I can exchange it for sword art.'

''Thanks for the point and sorry, I have to refuse the advancement in dorms. I am a mere commoner with a rank of 2000. If I stay in higher-grade dorms without sufficient strength it will be bad."Lucas refuted.

"You are right. In that case, we will compensate you somehow. Maybe we will pass you if you fail in some subject, "Lucas's lips twitched wondering if he looks like a person who will fail.

"The class has already started. Can I go?"Lucas asked.

"If you want, you can."

"If you are feeling unwell, you can take a rest."

"I will inform the authorities about your absence."

"No, I want to attend."

Lucas felt a bit excited thinking about meeting the characters later.

There is no way he could miss his favorite characters and taking leave on the first day might have left a bad impression.

Drek nodded and handed over the things.

Lucas took the smartwatch first.

All the information was relayed through it.

As he opened it, he frowned for a moment.

"What happened?"Drek asked, seeing Lucas frowning.

"Professor, I was in class A-8."

"But now I have received a notification that I have been enrolled in class A-3."

Classes were not arranged on ranks and were completely random.

"Oh, that!"Derrick gave a bitter smile and scratched his head.

"Your class has changed."

"Someone has decided to put you there. You will replace Diral who was in that class."

"I hope you enjoy it."

Professor Derrick patted him, wishing him good luck without noticing the inner turmoil Lucas was going through.

'Damn...Isn't this the class all the main characters are in?'

'I wanted to take a look at the side characters in A-8 from afar, not to commit suicide by getting closer to the Mc class.'

'Just which bastard did this?'

Lucas whined cursing the 14 generations of the person who changed his class at the last moment.

....

"Rank 37, Stephen Weiss"

"Rank 23, Axel Steel"

"Rank 3, Rose Seyfried."

"Rank 2, Frederick Frost."

"Rank 1, Charles Warren."

A lady with orange hair standing on the podium took the roll call. She looked young but her presence warned everyone not to take her lightly.

Ami Young is one of the youngest people to reach 8-Star. Unfortunately, she had a platinum bloodline, and her chances of reaching 9-Star were close to none.

As soon as the roll call was over, shock and astonishment flashed in everyone's eyes. The top 3 rankers were in the same class.

Little did they know it was the ploy of a shrewd old man to turn the top 3 rankers against each other.

And on top of that, all of them looked at the blue-haired boy who sat there calmly folding his arms.

Out of all 4000 students, all the rankers in the Top 30 have Diamond bloodlines except the infamous bastard of the Frost House, Frederick Frost who had a golden bloodline.

That means Frederick might have set a record during the entrance test to be ranked second despite an inferior bloodline.

He would have been Rank 1 just if he had a Platinum bloodline.

It came as a huge surprise for everyone.

From the corner, Frederick flashed a sharp piercing gaze.

His eyes met with the dark brownish eyes of Charles who was looking at him with an inexplicable gaze.

Everyone knows about their rank from before, however, they would know about other's rank only after they attend the class.

Charles sneered at Frederick.

'For a filthy illegitimate bastard to achieve Rank 2.'

'Interesting.'Charles tapped the armrest and turned his gaze with a soft chuckle.

Frederick turned his gaze, noticing Charles sneering at him, and muttered with a strange glint in his eyes.

'It will surely be interesting. I don't think life here will be boring.'

CLAP!

He snapped out of his thoughts and looked ahead.

Ami Young, their homeroom teacher was a bright student who graduated from Horizon itself.

She was one of the prodigies who achieved 8-Star at the age of 29 which was a year ago and she had the same status as that of a higher authority in the Academy.

"Let's begin the class."

"Your Life in Horizon will not be as simple as you might think."

Ami walked across the classroom and spoke with a bright smile.

"Wealth and status don't matter here, still many of you will surely find a way to use your connections and showcase your pride and arrogance."

"So, to all of them."

"Beware," Ami spoke with a cold smile.

Suddenly the bewitching smile gave them chills.

"You are free to show your useless pride here but your conceitedness will be your doom."

"And the proof is your ranks."

"By the end of terms, all your ranks will be changed."

"Except for some countable ones none have managed to maintain their top ranks."

"When the ones at the top were drunk in power and started spending time leisurely, the lower ones grind their teeth to hone themselves."

"There was a year where a commoner at the rank of 300 shot to Rank 1 throwing away all the nobles."

"And you all know him very well."

"The SS-ranked mercenary Icarus."

The students murmured hearing the familiar name but quieted down hearing her next words.

"And nobles who have huge expectations on their shoulders might already know about the consequences of losing the favour of the family by underperforming."

Her words made many flinch back and gasped in fear because each of her words was true.

"I am just reminding you. We will see what is going to happen in the future."

"The Academy imparts equal opportunity to all. Commoners and the lower middle-class lack resources, skills, and arts which you can exchange with Academy Points. It is the currency used solely in the academy so don't spend it on useless things. It might be tough at the beginning but you will surely find your way to the top if you can hold on."Ami spoke with a sincere expression.

"I know many of you may find my class boring as I will teach only basics that most of you might know so I will not bore you today."

"Now, all of you move to Practical Combat Class. I hope you will learn something new from that class."

The students stood up and followed Miss Ami toward combat class.

In the middle, a staff crossed paths with her and pulled her to the side.

Ami first led the students to the ground and then returned to talk with the staff.

"What happened?"

The man handed her a tablet and explained the matter.

She read the contents and saw the biodata of a dark-haired boy.

"Where is he now?"She asked.

The man answered and waved his hand.

Ami saw the boy walking towards her and gave a gentle bow.

"Hello, Miss Ami."

"Nice to meet you."

Ami nodded and spoke," I don't know the details but congratulations on getting your promotions."

"And I hope you are well."

"Unfortunately, you encountered an accident on the first day, but you persevered and made your way here."

Lucas flinched still he had expected this as Miss Ami is a personal disciple of Vice-Principal Josh so making a good impression in front of her might help him in the long run.

"Do you want to attend the class?"

"Yes!"Lucas nodded with a sincere expression. In fact, he had been listening to her speech from outside and knew that she had just pitted the nobles against the commoners which would only intensify later.

"Okay, so follow me."

Lucas sighed and followed her hoping that nothing odd happens in the Combat Class.
