Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra

DRIP!DRIP!DRIP!DRIP!

Drops of rain splashed onto the window glass emitting a splattering noise. Strong gales blew and thunder roared violently.

The window pain creaked open and a sharp sound of impact echoed.

Currently,Lucas's mood was similar to the rumbling dark clouds with a gloomy aura cladding around him.

He had forgotten to pack his pillow and woke up in the middle of the night feeling restless. It was the same feeling he encountered when he transmigrated.

The pillow, brought from the system, had helped him greatly in calming his nerves.

Sometimes, he feels as if the world had untold enmity so it was trying to kill him. Lucas also thought about this carefully which made him wonder if his bloodline ability had something similar to Clairvoyance or sharp intuition warning about impending dangers.

Although, bloodline ability can't be used with lower grades the traits endowed in the bloodline will always exist.

For example, if a bloodline had an ability that could increase a user's strength, those who were born from this lineage, and had a low bloodline grade could feel a momentary increase in strength for a moment.

FLAASHHHH!

The lightning strike illuminates the dark room drawing his attention toward it and making him remember two beautiful phrases.

"It is not the roaring thunder that smites but the silent lightning that kills."

"Some people are like flashes of lightning, the more brilliantly they glow, the quicker they will disappear and I hope I am not one of them."

Smiling bitterly, Lucas caressed the dismantled parts on the table crafted with eloquence, prepared for unforeseeable circumstances.

"I hope this thing helps in case of any hidden dangers that appear."

...

Dungeons were classified into three types.

Green dungeon, where you can hunt as much as you want, and even if you kill the boss monsters, the dungeons will keep functioning and will spawn monsters again.

Blue dungeon, in which the dungeon would close once the boss monster is hunted, and lastly the red dungeon, which is the riskiest of all dungeons.

Once a certain number of people enter the red dungeon, it would close automatically and would only open once cleared up.

The type of dungeons was not related to the colour of the gate which may be of any colour.

And about Dungeon Dislocation, it can happen in any type of dungeon. You can only curse your luck if you get involved in such an event.

This is why entering Dungeons are strictly regulated by the Hunter Department. The rights of the Dungeon are mostly allocated to the noble, to whom the territory belongs.

All the fortune, as well as the responsibility in the case of any accidents, would fall on the noble and in case of uncharted lands, Hunter Department will clear it by relaying permits to guilds and mercenaries or by acting themselves.

Today, the members of Skies would enter an E-rank Green Dungeon outside Ivane.

Taking care of documents and permits, Aaron tagged along with the member of the Hunter department and reached the site with a cheerful look.

Hurray, a member of Hunter Department having the strength of 5-Star realm took out a set of instruments to check the gate.

He noted the readings on a tablet.

'Hmm the density of mana had increased by

8 kcal/gm/cm² compared to previous month.'Hurray muttered inwardly.

Noting Hurray's expression, Aaron asked worriedly,"Is everything alright?"

"Everything is clear. The mana signatures and layout might have changed a bit but it's still in E-rank."Hurray spoke after examining the gate.

Green Dungeons which exist for an indefinite period absorb the mana slowly and their ranks increase so that's why the level of mana is checked before a party enters.

Being careless in this aspect can result in a dungeon outbreak or the death of the party. That's why Green Dungeons need to be cleared occasionally.

Lucas stared at the blue-black dungeon gate which looked like a hole coming out of nowhere. The dungeon gate in the academy did not exude this type of pressure. It was just a mini whirlpool in between two metallic pillars, perhaps due to being made artificially, it did not make Lucas uncomfortable like this one.

"This thing is the real deal," Lucas muttered scanning his new teammates.

Placing his hands on his back, Aaron tried to play the role of a big boss though he failed miserably.

"We will not hunt the boss monster. First, we will take our sweet time to squeeze out as much as possible. After that, we will squeeze...I mean hunt the boss monster which is in the 4-Star realm."

Everyone chucked at his speech.

Aaron clapped his hands and shouted"We have a new member. Esper and Angus greet Lucas."

"Esper and Angus joined us a month ago and are fairly good at fighting in their realm. Both of them are at the 3-Star peak stage."

"Hello, Lucas, nice to meet you."Esper and Angus greeted him.

Lucas returned their greetings and tried to familiarise himself with them.

"Lucas will act as Porter and supporter. He will watch, learn and then act. Lucas, don't take unnecessary risks. You will only fight monsters at the 1-Star realm under our supervision."

Lucas nodded obediently. In this era where dimension rings can be brought easily, who needs Porter? If he did not encounter any monsters around his level, they would just be babysitting him.

Still, they were kind enough to allow him to tag along.

"Let's depart," Aaron muttered and strode inside followed by Esper and Agnus.

Lucas stared at the gate and wondered whether anything bad would happen this time.

'God, I believe in you. All things that have happened till now are just coincidences. I am not unlucky, ain't I?'

Morgana ruffled Lucas's hair, snapping him out of his thoughts, and said"Don't worry, Big Sis Morgana will take care of you."

"Hmm!" Lucas nodded with an embarrassed expression. His heart melted seeing Morgana's heartfelt gaze filled with warmth and somehow reminded him of his parents who would always have his back.

Lucas puffed up his confidence and stepped in followed by Morgana.

Hurray, after seeing them entering, looked down at his watch and muttered"I am feeling hungry."

Hurray who just walked a few steps, felt a slight fluctuation from behind and turned back.

"I felt something."He squinted his gaze at the gate but being unable to find any anomaly, he lowered his guard and left.

Just then, the gate started to swell and mana swirled and flickered.

....

Inside the dungeon.

Morgana hummed while moving ahead and then asked with a surprised expression"Huh...where is Lucas?"

Aaron, Esper, and Angus who stood at the front turned back and gave Morgana a baffled look.

Seeing their suspicious look.

"Lucas walked ahead of me and when I entered, since I did not see him, I thought he had already walked ahead," replied Morgana anxiously.

"What the hell?"Aaron panicked and then ran towards the gate.

"Lucas...Lucas...."Aaron and others cried out in panic as they searched for Lucas only to find him crawling on the ground with his body quivering uncontrollably.

Lucas glanced at them with a bewildered expression"Are you sure this is a dungeon and not some kind of death land? I feel as if my soul has left my body for a moment."

The first thing Lucas felt after stepping in was someone whacking his head. His vision dwindled, and his ears became numb devoid of any sound. He lost his strength all of a sudden.

It was an entirely different experience from the dungeon he had entered in the school.

Blinking his eyes with a pale expression, Lucas opened his lips.

"Can someone explain what is going on?"Lucas's tone carried a hint of resentment not only toward Aaron but also toward the authors who wrote about the dungeon.

'I mean, I could have lost my life here if any monster appeared. They say one would feel slight discomfort, nausea, and vomiting but this is way worse. I felt my connection to life had been cut the moment I stepped in.'Lucas cursed inwardly.

Aaron picked him up and explained, "Sorry, we forgot to explain."

"Dungeon is like a real miniature world and the laws are a bit different here. For first-timers, one will feel light-headedness and the five sense organs would take time to adapt causing you some discomfort. The Dungeon in the Academy is a replication of the main world and adjusted as per human specification so it did not take long to get used to."

After explaining, Aaron and the other two gave a suspicious look to the person who was too careless to act as a big sister.

Morgana's face heated up due to embarrassment.

Morgana with an apologetic look walking forward, handed a water bottle to Lucas and was about to say something when they heard a squeaking noise.

"They are here," Aaron muttered and his gaze became sharp.
