Reborn as an Extra

*Punch*

"You d*mned b*tch! How dare you run away! Do you know how much trouble you f*cking r*scals cause for me!?"

"Stay here now! If you dare to run away again! I will break your legs!"

The man wearing an expensive-looking suit glared at the young girl with anger on his face.

In a fit of rage, the man rushed out of the room and kicked the door to close it with force.

*Bam!*

The already corroded and old door closed with a loud bang and it barely remained intact after that strong push.

Seeing that the man had left, the young girl got up from the ground with great difficulty, her whole body shook uncontrollably every once in a while.

She seemed to be suffering from severe malnutrition and her body was weak and frail.

Although the girl's face was covered by her disheveled hair, there was still a happy smile on her face.

With her shivering body, she got up and slowly walked to the nearby bed.

"h-Hey, uh, your sis has brought you the bread, you always liked to eat... uh, happy birthday... Hehe, take it"

The young girl smiled at the boy lying on the bed.

Ignoring the pain caused by the punch that hit her directly in the face, she smiled at her younger brother and hid her pain from him.

The young boy slowly tilted his head towards her.

"Big sister, you are there? Hehe, thanks..."

The boy was blind, so he could not see his sister's disheveled face, and even his hearing wasn't working properly. He looked weaker and malnourished than his sister.

"Hehe, don't worry about it, it's your birthday after all, we can't let the day go just like that..."

"Thanks, big sis..."

The young girl helped her brother to sit up with the support of the wall.

Although the walls and the furniture in the room looked extremely worn down, the two siblings didn't mind it at all, or you could say, they didn't have the luxury to mind it in the first place.

The Young girl smiled and slowly fed the bread to her brother with her dirty hands.

Tears appeared in the blind eyes of the young boy as he ate the bread.

"Haha, look at you, did you like it that much?"

The young boy nodded his head in agreement.

"Yeah, it's tasty, thanks..."

Although their situation was bad and their future seemed bleak, they both were happy, that's all that mattered at the moment.

"Hehe, your big sis will get you as many as you like! As long as you are happy I am happy!"

At the moment the young girl thought that stealing that bread and getting beaten to protect it, was all worth the risk as long as her younger brother was happy.

Those were difficult days, survival was harsh and barely possible, but as long as they both were happy, it didn't matter what their circumstances were.

...

The next day.

While the two siblings were sleeping peacefully on that worn-down bed, the same man that had beaten the young girl yesterday, kicked the door open.

The worn-out door couldn't withstand anymore, it broke apart and fell to the ground with a loud noise.

"Yeah, take these pieces of sh*ts away from my eyes!"

Two burly men in strange black uniforms entered the room.

The two siblings woke up in fright due to the loud noise created by the door when it fell on the ground.

They shivered as the man shouted orders at the two bodyguards.

"Wait! Don't take my brother! I-I will go with you!"

The bodyguards didn't listen to the pleas of the young girl and her cries for help were ignored.

The bodyguards hit them both on the back of their heads and both of the siblings fainted from the impact.

The young girl barely heard one sentence before fainting:

"Good, a new underground black market has opened recently, hehe... they will fetch a good price..."

...

Underground bidding hall. Location: unknown.

The next time the girl opened her eyes, she found herself in a cage.

Several masked people sat on the seats in front of the stage and continued their bidding, it seemed like an illegal auction was being held in this place.

She glanced around and found her younger brother to be stuck in a nearby cage. Her pupils dilated in fear and she screamed for help.

But none listened to her pleas.

"5000!"

"5001!"

The bidding continued and eventually, someone won this round of bidding.

The young girl was desperate to know about her younger brother's situation, but since the cages were placed quite far away, she couldn't reach her brother at all.

Her small hands were far too weak to do anything in that situation. A look of great concern appeared on her face when she noticed that her brother seemed to be unconscious.

"Congratulations these fine goods, now belong to participant no.53!" (Host)

Just when things looked grim and desperate a ray of hope shined in that dark hallway.

*Bang*

The ceiling of the underground hallway burst apart and a muscular man in luxurious clothes landed on the ground.

The man's bright red hair waved in the air and his bright red pupils shined like gems in that dark hall.

Bright rays of sunlight entered the hall from the hole in the ceiling, which was created by the man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

The man had a wide grin on his face, his aura made every person feel immense fear.

"Heh, so this is where you all were hiding, d*man vermins!"

The man's voice carried immense strength in it. Even space-

time itself seems to tremble from his very presence.

The masked people looked at the man in horror and shouted in panic.

"W-what's an SS-ranker doing here!"

"R-run!"

"No! No! How did he find out about this place!?"

A frown appeared on the man's face as he replied to those shouts in a cold tone.

"Heh, you vermins really underestimate the abilities of an SS-

ranker…"

"You see, I am Ashtel Rex, tracking you worms is child's play for me!" (Ashtel)

After saying that, Ashtel raised his hand a little and flicked his finger towards those masked people.

*Bammmmmmm!*

In a single flick of his finger, an immense air pressure was created. The tremendous air pressure struck them all with an insane force and blew their bodies away into fine dust in an instant.

The attack didn't stop there and it continued onwards, it directly blew apart half of the underground hall, and rays of sunshine entered the hall through that broken half of the hall.

"Hmph, worthless worms…" (Ashtel)

Several other awakeners arrived at the scene and a lady in the uniform of a secretary landed in front of Ashtel. (Everyone who entered the place was an S-ranker, they all could fly…)

"Uh, it seems this is the last place of this network, we have finished the work for today boss…" (Secretory)

Hearing the report from his secretory, Ashtel nodded his head and then glanced at the place, his gaze fell on the girl inside the cage for a few seconds and he said in a sour tone.

"These b*stards really thought we couldn't find them just because they were using S-rank stealth artifacts… tch! Pathetic worms, they even dared to lay their hands on innocent children…" (Ashtel)

"Arrange a proper place for that young girl… as for that boy…. It seems we were a bit late today… sigh…" (Ashtel)

Ashtel shook his head in regret, he knew that there were bound to be some mistakes in such a big operation. Even he could not revive a dead person after all.

…

Later the reports were submitted to the media and the whole human society criticized this underground organization for its cruelty.

Although it was too late for the young boy who died in this mess, more children were saved as that illegal organization came to an end after Ashtel raided all of their hideouts personally.

The incident was concluded that day, but for the young girl who lost her only loved one, the world seemed to have collapsed.

After rescuing her from the underground auction hall, the Ashtel's subordinates arranged the paperwork, and the young girl was sent to one of the most famous and luxurious orphanages.

She was provided with all the facilities that she could have never dreamt of before.

But in her eyes all these things were meaningless.

The moment she found out that her younger brother had already died, all her happiness had vanished into nothingness.

(His neck was extremely weak, and when the bodyguard hit him to make him faint, his neck immediately broke and he died on the spot… there was no way he could have lived after that…)

May it be Ashtel's mistake that he arrived late, or may it be the mistake of the intelligence squad that they discovered the situation late, but the young girl thought that it was her own mistake that she didn't protect her brother from the cruel world.

The young girl's eyes burnt with hatred from that day onwards, she had decided that she would take revenge on the man who inflicted all this pain on her.

She knew that she was far too weak and it was near impossible for the current her to find that man in this vast human empire.

Thus she had decided, that she would become strong enough to one day give this same pain to the man who robbed her brother away from her.

That was the day when 'Riko Embeth' chose to walk on the thorny path of 'Revenge'.
