Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 45 The Formless Weapon!



Rio suddenly noticed that a few more words have appeared on the piece of paper which he found before.

[If you are reading this then it means you have survived that potion. Congratulations you were able to survive even though the chances of survival were only 1 percent, indeed you have a very firm and strong will. I hope you will be able to achieve greater heights.]

[I wish you good luck!]

.

Looking at the newly appeared words only one thing appeared in Rio's mind:

'you should have told that earlier! I could have been dead by now! I wonder how my father became an S-ranked with such a laid back personality, sigh~' (Rio)

If Rio had lost his consciousness he would have died immediately. That was a really dangerous thing but nevertheless he survive and there's a saying:

[If something doesn't kills you, then it makes you stronger]

After a while Rio put this matter at the back of his mind, there's no point in crying over spilled milk now.

Rio then focused his attention at that old looking rusty knife:

[A boundable artifact has been detected!]

[Artifact: Formless weapon]

[Boundable target: Descendent of Flash Bloodline]

[Description: a formless weapon. It can be turned into any type of weapon you can think of.]

[It can maintain its form as long as you do not order it to change form.]

[Can self repair by using mana, will become strong with owner]

[ Would you like to bound with it.]

[Warning: unbinding isn't possible untill you reach S-rank or die]

[Would you like to bind?]

[Yes/No]

'Yes' (Rio)

After thinking for a while, Rio accepted. He currently do not have any sword and his increased senses are telling him that he should get out of this place as fast as possible.

'let's complete binding first' (Rio)

[Binding....merging with soul.... compatibility calculation.... 50 percent....]

[Binding successful!]

The formless substance moved towards Rio's hands and started to enter his hand. After the liquid entered his hand.

Due to some unscientific and physics defying reason Rio didn't felt anything even though the liquid entered his body. Instead he felt warm all over his body.

'i can instinctively control this thing' (Rio)

Rio tried to form a katana and it took shape instantly, he then made it into a broadsword, a longsword, a knife, a saber, a dagger etc. And he was able to do it as easy as breathing.

'and if I don't summon it, I can carry a weapon without even carrying it, how convenient' (Rio)

'hmm, there seems to be a new line on the page again.' (Rio)

[If you are able to read it than it means you have survived the soul compatibility. If not compatible your soul might had to suffer obliteration. Well all is good as long as you survived. Muhahaha...oh one more thing there's a toy I prepared for you to try your new strength but that guy is a bit strong so be careful not to die... Muhahaha]

After Rio read this, his expression-less face became a bit dark. For the first time since he came to this world Rio felt anger.

'damn it! Two times! Haah, this fu*cking old ba*tard! F*ck you!' (Rio)

But he calmed down in a matter of a few seconds.

'it seems that since my soul have merged with the previous owner I was able to pass this compatibility test, maybe that's also the reason why it showed 50 percent earlier.' (Rio)

'it's fortunate that the soul compatibility checking can only be done till 50 percent. Otherwise if it was checking 51 percent or higher I would have failed for sure.' (Rio)

Just as Rio was busy cursing a certain dead man, he suddenly felt danger, his all senses were screaming and warning him. Without thinking much Rio directly jumped away from the place.

Looking back he found that a huge golem has destroyed the place he was previously standing at. The ground has cracked quite a bit. Obviously it was a attack meant to kill.

'hmm, a snow golem? Is this the toy, that old man talked about? This could be tricky' (Rio)

Golems are not living beings they are like machines and work on mana stones as their energy sources.

Golems follow a pre-determined command. And they are incapable of doing things without a command from their creator. Due to a golems heavy defence its speed and agility is very low making it an easy target.

'but that is when you know it's grade. An A-rank golem can adapt to opponents movements and have the ability to adapt to some extent.' (Rio)

The biggest problem is that you can't tell the rank of a golem at a single glance, afterall golems are not living beings they don't have aura. It's rank can only be determined during actual combat.

'according to the previous attack this one is not an S-rank golem. And from the power it is definitely stronger than a C-rank one.' (Rio)

After Rio dodged the first attack the golem didn't stop and carried out its next attack, a single straight punch, but with huge power.

'if this landed on me, it will be fatal.' (Rio)

With the help of strengthened senses Rio easily dodged the continuous attacks of this golem. With Rio's speed he can escape a golems attack easily.

Suddenly, the golem changed his fighting method and started to launch attacks more fiercely.

'its adapting to my movements.yeah, this guy is an A-rank, confirmed.' (Rio)

While easily dodging the attacks will give some time to Rio but golems do not get exhausted and can continue to function as long as their mana stone is still providing energy.

'then there's only one way out now.' (Rio)

The katana got concerted in the form of a straight sword with pointed and sharp tip. It now have the similar shape as the Indian sword 'Firangi' capable of thrusting and cutting both.

Rio backed away a bit, calmed his breath and took the position to caryout a perfect stab in a mere fraction of a second.

[Concentration!]

[Body Strengthening!]

[Elemental sword art: fire thrust!]

The sword started to glow red and and the flames got condensed on a single point of the tip. In a single second the sword directly pierced the abdomen if golem and destroyed the mana crytal accurately.

After piercing the the golem Rio immediately moved away from the golem but still got affected by the huge explosion that followed after.

'tsk, I knew it would explode but it was still unavoidable.' (Rio)contemporary romance

Looking back Rio found that the snow golem has scattered it's snow all around the place and there are several broken pieces of mana stone scattered around the place.

'phew, that was close, if i was only a bit slow, the golem would have landed a punch on my face before I could have pierced him.' (Rio)

'it seems it's time to go back now.' (Rio)

'let's first check my gains before we leave' (Rio)

'hmm, it seems that except a new item nothing has changed, I will have to increase my training after I go back.' (Rio)

Rio then started to look around for a way to go out of this place but he found that there's no way out.

'what's going on, there should be some portal or something right. Why is there nothing...' (Rio)

'is this also that old man's doing?' (Rio)

Just as Rio was about to start cursing at the old man a new line appeared on the page.

[I see, you are indeed strong. You have passed all the trails successfully. I appreciate your strong will. Well then it's time to say farewell. Have a happy journey, my precious child]

The page started to glow and the light enveloped Rio in its grace. Rio felt as if he was floating on water, a rather strange feeling, indeed.

What Rio didn't notivmce was the fact that a certain old man was smiling while looking at, he was quietly fading into nothingness yet a relieved smile hung on his face.

Before fading the man stretched his hand and placed it on now unconscious Rio's head.

"By the way, I am not that old, you silly child" (Kevin)

Then he faded away with no regrets.
