Reborn as an Extra

110 A Leisurely day...

Rooftop, Military infirmary, Near the General's Residence.

"Why the long face? Are you sad because you lost to Link?" (Lia)

While Rio was still dejected about his sword, Lia appeared on the Rooftop, she walked towards and stood beside him.

Her golden hair shined like pure gold under the setting sun. If not for the fact that Rio's face is always expressionless, his jaw would have dropped to the floor just by looking at her once. 

A smirk appeared on Lia's cute face and she said in a teasing tone:

"You finally tasted defeat today, hehe~" (Lia)

Rio rolled his eyes and stopped looking at her.

Seeing that Rio was not paying her any attention, Lia pouted her cheeks, which made her look even cuter.

"Here, take this…" (Lia)

Lia handed the tea she was holding in her hand to Rio. Rio glanced at the tea and took it.

"How did you know I needed that?" (Rio)

Hearing Rio's question, Lia dodged his eyes and vaguely answered:

"T-that, i-I just thought you would appreciate a tea, th-that's all!" (Lia)

"Is that so…" (Rio)

Rio didn't think too much about it, he just nodded his head and took a sip of the tea. (Tea is Rio's favorite drink, he is addicted to it. The habit of drinking tea five times a day was carried on in this life from his past life.)

Lia glanced at Rio sipping tea silently while looking at the horizon. She heaved a sigh of relief.

'I almost got caught, almost ended up saying that I saw him drink tea every day near his dorm window.' (Lia)

Lia has several of Rio's photos drinking tea while standing near his dorm room's window. (She took those photos using a long-range image-capturing artifact, Rio couldn't detect her from so far so she was safe. Except for her maid, no one knew about those secret photos.)

"By the way, where is that fat and smelly creature now?" (Rio)

All of a sudden a white cat appeared out of nowhere and stood on Lia's shoulder.

[How dare a mere human call me fat and smelly!? Be respectful to this mighty Divine Lion!]

"Meow!? Meow!" (Kai)

Although Kai tried to retort in anger, all that came out of his mouth was a cat's voice. 

Rio glanced at Kai who was glaring at him in anger and shook his head. Then he looked at Lia and said:

"It seems to be angry, give it some dry fish or something…" (Rio)

[Damn you human!!!]

"Meow!!!" (Kai)

Lia who could hear Kai's wailing in her head, had a complicated expression on her face. Due to her mana exhaustion in the earlier fight, Kai can't use telepathy to communicate with others and only she can hear her voice right now, thus hearing Kai's angry yelling she could only shake her head in sympathy for him.

[Tch! I am going back!]

"Meow!" (Kai)

Kai disappeared with frustration in his heart. He didn't want to see the face of this rude human for one more second.

After Kai disappeared Lia shook her head, she was now used to Kai's regular mood swings. Recently Lia even got a few friends because of this cat wandering around her. A smile appeared on Lia's face while thinking about it.

"Hey, will you answer a question for me, you must be honest with your answer…" (Rio)

Lia glanced at Rio who was still looking at the horizon and sipping his tea leisurely, with an expressionless face.

'Why is he so serious all of a sudden?' (Lia) (Lia has been so accustomed to Rio's expressionless face, that she can guess his emotions easily now.)

"What?" (Lia)

Rio continued to stare at the setting sun with his usual expressionless face for a few seconds before saying:

"What would you do, if I became a demon or something like that one day?" (Rio)

"Would you be able to put me to Rest?" (Rio)

With his usual expressionless face, Rio asked Lia a very thought-provoking and weird question.

Hearing his question, Lia stared at Rio for a few seconds without saying anything back.

After a minute or two, a determined expression appeared on Lia's face and she replied in a firm tone:

"If you became a demon and started harming innocent people… I would be the first to put you down, I wouldn't want you to harm others, but I don't know if I would be strong enough to do that…." (Lia)

"That's why… I sincerely hope that…. You shouldn't fall to such a vile path…" (Lia)

Hearing Lia's answer, a small smile appeared on Rio's face.

"Haha, you are as direct and decisive as ever… I would be sure to not get on your wrong side, haha…" (Rio)

Lia also smiled a little after seeing Rio's smile, it is indeed rare for him to smile after all.

The two continued to enjoy their alone time for a few more minutes before happily returning. 

They decided to go and visit Link and Riya and see what they were doing.

Military Infirmary, Link's recovery room

"Ugh, I look so weird!" (Link)

While looking at his face in the mirror Link had an unhappy expression on his face. 

"I will beat that guy Liam to a pulp, the next time I see his face!" (Link)

As Link touched his burnt face and bald head, he felt more and more anger towards Liam. He couldn't help but curse that guy Liam for burning his hair and making him bald.

"Stay still Link, let me heal you properly, otherwise your hair won't recover!" (Riya)

Riya was having great difficulty in keeping Link still. She has been trying to heal him but Link wanted to go and beat up Liam immediately.

"It's not like you look bad or something, my friend said that bald guys have better vitality… or was it speed?..." (Riya)

Link looked at Riya with a complicated expression on his face.

"M-Maybe you shouldn't take advice from that friend, she must be talking about some other type of dude… ahem! Well let's focus on healing first shall we!" (Link) (Why does this remind me of a certain someone, hmm who could it be, tell me in the comments….)

Riya tilted her head in confusion and continued to heal Link's head.

'Please heal me before that guy Rio sees me in this state, if he saw me bald he will make fun of me for the rest of my life!' (Link)

Just when Link was praying in his head, the gate of the room opened, and Rio and Lia both walked in directly.

Link's expression turned into horror after looking at Rio.

Contrary to Link's expectations Rio didn't even glance at him, he looked at Riya and said:

"Hey, candy-girl, where is that fatso Link..." (Rio)

All of a sudden Rio glanced at Link and said:

"Oh! You were here Link? I didn't even recognize you… ah! Could it be you are cosplaying that famous por-" (Rio)

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" (Link)

Link screamed at the top of his lungs as if he had seen a ghost, he got up jumped out of the window, and ran away while screaming at the top of his lungs.

"W-what!?" (Riya)

Riya was so shocked by this, that she couldn't even process what just happened. Riya hurriedly left the room and started chasing Link while panting heavily.

"W-what just happened?" (Lia)

Lia who entered the room a little late, had a confused expression on her face.

Rio looked at the broken window and noticed that Link had jumped down from the fifth floor without any damage.

He shook his head and replied:

"Nothing much, It seems Link couldn't hold the pressure and went to the washroom in hurry…" (Rio)

"Oh, i-is that so… but why jump down the window then?…" (Lia)

Rio shrugged his shoulder in reply.

"Who knows~ must have been holding it for too long perhaps…." (Rio)

While Rio looked expressionless from outside he was already laughing at Link in his mind.

Later this day would be remembered by Rio and Link as a content of 'Dark history'. 

Rio would go on and tease Link about today, for a long time to come. This happy memory will stay alive in their hearts for a very long time.
