I Became an Extra Who Died Instead of the Main Character

47 – Open Class (2)

The Selenium Academy’s open class lasts for a total of 3 days.

On yesterday, the first day of the open class, we opened the theory class we had been attending to parents.

On the second day, today, as announced yesterday, we will unveil a task class to battle monsters made up of illusion magic.

On the third and final day, tomorrow, he said, there will be an evaluation by the parents who observed the open class.

‘It must be difficult to get a good evaluation.’

After hearing my explanation about the open class, Ifrit spoke softly.

“······That’s right.”

I also quietly agreed with that opinion.

“Kyaaah!”

“What to do with that monster!”

“Senior!”

“aaagh!”

Even I, who couldn’t see properly because I couldn’t see, could feel that the place where the assignment was being conducted was a mess.

“······This is the first class?”

I heard Tinia-senpai’s voice from the side, looking very shocked.

It was a natural reaction since class 1 was supposed to have only the best students, and they were making such a fuss.

It wasn’t even just 2 first year students, it was a project with a total of 4 people including a mentor for the 2nd year.

That doesn’t mean those students didn’t understand, however, it was a monster.

Even if it’s an illusion made of magic. A monster that is forbidden to be created by law in the empire.

It wasn’t something that students who hadn’t even graduated from the academy could easily catch or hunt.

‘Didn’t you say you caught it last time?’

As Ifrit said, it is true that Tinia-senpai came out of the forest and caught it.

“······Well, that’s a bit of an exception.”

In the first place, the absorption itself was a very fraudulent ability.

It’s called unique magic, but as long as you absorb the magic, you’ll be able to use magic that’s higher than my original magic level.

Although there are huge side effects behind it. In any case, the fraudulent ability was correct in this respect.

“Brother Ryan.”

“Yes. Senior.”

“Why is your face so worried?”

But like senior Tinia said, I was very worried about the assignment.

It wasn’t because I couldn’t solve the task.

Even when Ifrit wasn’t there, I caught the monster, and unlike that time, even if I couldn’t see, the existence of Ifrit was a big difference.

I’m not going to fight in close quarters like the knights. All you have to do is use magic in the direction that Ifrit tells you from a distance.

Nevertheless, it was full of worries.

From noble mtl dot com

“I’m not very familiar with Philip Edgar.”

“······· Ah.”

Because I had an uncomfortable relationship with Philip, who was selected in the same group.

I think of Philip as a relationship that needs to be cut off from the mess we had together in the past. Phillip must be seeing me as a scumbag who suddenly betrayed himself.

It was true.

Because I cut ties with Philip and the other bad guys after I remembered.

But I didn’t feel sorry.

Because Philip also saw me as a tool rather than a friend, and accused me of going in and out of the window in revenge for his severing ties.

I could see that Philip had a lot of credit for my image becoming like this.

Senior Tinia, who left a single word for a while and didn’t say anything, spoke in a voice full of anxiety.

“Then shouldn’t I have asked for a change?”

“It’s not that we don’t have a good personal relationship, because he’s a guy whose skills are worth recognizing.”

It was a simple reason.

Because Philip had excellent magic skills, and was always sincere in public affairs like this.

Privately, rumors aren’t as good as mine, and his reputation is rubbish, but in public, he has a pretty decent reputation.

On the contrary, I could have been a much better member of the group than the other students in this group assignment.

‘If you don’t hold a grudge against me.’

Of course, it was a story that came from the assumption that he had no ill feelings toward me.

My concern was that Philip might still hold a grudge against me.

Professor Javert’s voice was heard calling the next group, perhaps as if Joe’s turn, who had just been screaming, was over.

“Next, groups 5 and 10. Come out and prepare groups 5 and 10.”

So far, the order is 1st and 6th, 2nd and 7th. In this way, two groups have been proceeding at once.

Unfortunately, Adele and Stella’s group and our group ended up doing it at the same time.

“Let’s go, junior. It’s our turn.”

“·······Yes.”

According to Tinia sunbaenim’s words to go quickly, I got up from my seat.

‘Looks like I’ll have to keep going like this.’

I was able to arrive at the place where I could hear Professor Javert’s voice by following the guidance of Ifrit, whom I had become accustomed to.

“······Absorption.”

It was only natural that he absorbed Magnus’ mana in the middle without anyone noticing.

I didn’t know if I used Ifrit’s magic as it was in the forest, I might lose my eyesight permanently.

“It’s your turn to go in soon, so if there’s something you need to discuss with your teammates, do it now.”

Although time was given for each group strategy meeting.

“···”

“···”

That doesn’t mean that one of the four members of Joe brought up the story.

“······We are not close to each other…But still…”

A moment of silence passes, and when Tinia-senpai is barely trying to get her to say, “Let’s do our best.”

“Lian Kindred.”

“···”

I heard Philip Edgar’s cold voice.

“Honestly, you and I are not in a relationship to exchange nice words. Just take care of yourself.”

“······Yes.”

I won’t care, so tell me to take care of yourself.

That was very Philip Edgar.

“If the story is over, now go to the exam room.”

Professor Javert’s cold voice, as if he had heard me and Philip.

The 10-group open class assignment has begun.

***

After Ryan passed him and his family like that.

His family was in great shock.

“Honey, Lian… Lian…”

“Did my brother… Just turn a blind eye to us?”

His daughter and his wife next to him asked him as if they really didn’t want to believe it.

“It seems like… Something like that.”

That was shocking as well.

I expected it to some extent.

Considering what they did to his son.

It was as if there would be no regrets that Lian left for him and his family.

I didn’t expect Lian to greet me warmly.

But I didn’t expect it to be like this.

At the worst, Lian looked at him with cold eyes,

– Why are you here?

Because I thought it was the worst.

I really didn’t want to imagine it, but if it’s that much, please listen to me.

I was thinking of begging for an apology that I’m sorry just once.

However.

The reality was much colder than he expected.

His son passed by as if he hadn’t seen him and his family.

As if you and I are not related.

I passed by as if it were nothing to you.

That evening, in the lodging provided to those who came to observe the open class.

“We need to… Take measures.”

“How can I… Come back…”

“Brother…”

He and his family had a meeting without a good night’s sleep in order to be forgiven by their son.

However, the meeting was never smooth.

“Why did I… Why would I…”

Because they also knew.

Because they knew that what they did to their son and brother would have been an unforgivable wound.

But I couldn’t give up.

If the nightmare they dreamed comes true.

If the nightmare of Lian dying alone in a lonely room at the count’s house becomes their future.

Because it was clear they would never last.

So they stayed up all night.

To ask for forgiveness from my son somehow, to ask forgiveness from my brother somehow.

And the next day.

As Principal Lapis predicted, the day when the open class assignment to battle monsters made of illusion magic is going on.

I looked at the other students who were working on their assignments first with black dark circles on their eyes caused by not being able to sleep.

“Isn’t this…Too dangerous?”

“Your brother…Does this?”

Their concerns grew with the content of the task, which seemed very dangerous.

“I must pray.”

All they could do was pray that their son and brother would finish the assignment without getting hurt.

“Next, groups 5 and 10. Come out and prepare groups 5 and 10.”

Finally, Lian’s turn was right around the corner.

Lian went into the test site with the other members.

Fortunately. Fortunately, what they were worried about didn’t happen.

Rian only suffered minor abrasions until the phantom monster almost collapsed, but nothing seriously dangerous happened.

Only then were they able to sweep their hearts out.

“Again, the principal said that we could meet her students after the exams were over. I’m going to go see Lian after it’s over.”

“Yes, Dad. You must apologize to your brother.”

But. Did you say carelessness is your greatest enemy?

The powerful wind magic that Philip Edgar blew to finish off the phantom monster just before the monster almost collapsed.

The aim was wrong, and it was directed at his son, Lian.

“Brother!”

“Don’t worry, you can get around that much.”

Until then, I wasn’t too worried.

That was the level they could have avoided just by looking at it with their own eyes.

If only I could see it with my own eyes. That is.
