Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy

Chapter 210 210:Emotional Outburst

Lucas took a deep and heavy breath staring solemnly at the familiar face that gave him a sense of oppression.

The person's demonic black sclera with crimson eyes seems to pierce deep inside his soul, making him feel naked in front of him.

"So, you are the Original Lucas or it's proper to say, you are the future version of Lucas."

"Affirmative."

The man sitting on the Throne folding his legs gave a small nod with a blank expression.

The scenes of him playing around in his body and his words reverberated in his mind.

"Then, are you a regressor or are you in a time loop and you brought me here to break that loop?"

Lucas asked, standing up on his trembling feet.

"Interesting. I like your thought process but that's also one of your biggest faults. You complicate simple things by overthinking while overlooking the important things that led to your disaster."

"Stop kidding and answer me!" Lucas shouted angrily.

"Negative. I am neither a regressor nor am I in a time loop. However, there is a regressor out there and there is also a transmigrator. And for your kind information, I didn't appear here to save your sorry pathetic beaten ass."

"Can you first tell me your identity? It's so confusing?"

A brief silence prevailed for a moment.

The man unfolded his legs and, getting down, walked towards Lucas.

"I am a miracle."

"Out of countless twisting futures filled with death and destruction, I am one of the exceptions evolved unwanted by the world."

"I am the Future Lucas. A future, where I, a future self of yours, managed to survive even when the world went to shit."

Lucas took a deep breath to calm down and process the information.

Though the party's intentions didn't look hostile still he needed to figure out the person's motive. After all, he can't blindly trust this guy just because he claimed himself to be the future Lucas.

Moreover, his words conveyed another thing.

The future of this world is certainly doomed.

Future Lucas, as if sensing Lucas' thoughts, grinned.

"It's good that you have a certain sense of weariness and you didn't believe my words like an idiot. Because if you don't meet my standards and find that you are utterly stupid, I might kill you for real."

"However, I am not lying."

Sitting over a Throne made of corpses, he extended his hand and snapped his fingers.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, countless white lines appeared in the space startling Lucas and soon everything around them was filled with white lines.

"What is this?"Lucas asked curiously.

Future Lucas clapped, drawing Lucas' attention and pointing in a certain direction, he said,"Look at that."

Lucas turned his head and saw a huge white mass revolving around from which a white strong string appeared.

"This sphere represents the origin of the world and the string represents the beginning of time of this universe. Now look at the other side."

Lucas, following his notion, turned around and saw a gigantic black circle that gave him the feeling of countless despair.

"This is a black sphere representing the end. And all these countless lines in between this, this is the world's flow. That represents several different timelines."

Lucas gasped a sigh seeing countless threat-like lines twisting and twirling all around.

A single thread extended from the sphere representing the beginning which started bifurcating and dividing into many. However, on reaching the end, all of the strings joined again to form a single line.

"What the hell is going on? Why are there so many?"

"Stop being shocked at every tiny thing."Future Lucas chuckled, seeing Lucas' eyes which were as curious as a small child who had stepped out of the house for the very first time.

"Each line depicts a possibility. A certain change that may or may not have a great impact rather separates itself from the original timeline and forms a new one."

Lucas was too engrossed to hear Future Lucas' words. At that time, his brows furrowed as he saw that at the far end of the lines. Feeling weird enough, he looked to the other side and saw another line where all these lines were converging and wondered, if they had already split, how they joined.

Noticing his doubt, Future Lucas spoke.

"Singularity."

"Everything begins from a single point and starts to diversify. There should be one timeline but an anomaly appeared due to an outside interference which messed up the flow and order of the world."

"Until now, this world had never managed to get a happy ending. The lines converged because the world is destroyed and no one is alive resulting in the same ending in every timeline. It is like the process of R.H.S. equal to L.H.S. when you solve a math equation."

"Me, who has managed to overcome the crisis and is now managing the crisis of the future."

Seeing Future Lucas staring at him with a stern expression, Lucas already got a hint of what the man was conveying.

This guy had an easygoing uncaring attitude but when he was serious, he was worse than the devil and now his eyes were quite serious.

"You are taking care of future timelines and you want me to take care of the present."

"Jackpot. You got the right answer. You won a lottery ticket by answering correctly that saved you from getting beaten by me."Future laughed and hit Lucas back causing him to stumble which irked Lucas.

"But...why the hell do I have to take care of all this shit. And what about Frederick? What the fuck is he doing as a protagonist. Moreover, how can I believe you? What if all this is bullshit? Also, are you the one who wrote the book?"

"Wait, does that mean you are the one who is behind that accident that killed me and brought me to this world?"Lucas's voice became rough thinking about this death.

The train went off-track out of nowhere. Just before that, the old man sitting beside him got out, giving him a weird smile as if he knew what was going to transpire.

"You bastard, not only you killed me. You killed several innocents!!"

Lucas burst out screaming at him and his face became red as he huffed and puffed in anger.

Future Lucas yawned not taking Lucas' outburst seriously.For him it was like small child throwing a tantrum.

"Shut up! Stop behaving like a monkey. Can't you talk like a civilized person like me?"

"Just from which angle do you look civilised? Do you think I don't know how you danced like a monkey while killing that enemy? And that goofy ass smile? Aren't you a tiny bit embarrassed by laughing like that? It is just a ..."

BANG!

A loud bang resonated and Lucas found the world spinning around.

"Assholes who use violence when they can't defend themselves." Lucas shouted, holding his swollen face.

"Technically, you are calling yourself an asshole so you are scolding yourself."

"And don't talk about that trash Frederick. He is a useless and pathetic piece of shit. And about the book, I hadn't written it though I might know the writer but I can't tell you for now."Future Lucas grinned with an unslighty smile.

"Who is it? Tell me who wrote that book and whether you are the person behind my death.Seeing that look, I am sure you had hand in it."

Future Lucas rolled his eyes up and down and sneered,"What? Did you think of me as your servant who will reply to everything you asked?"

Lucas bit his lips with a scowl and massaged his forehead to calm himself from getting pissed by this guy.

"Then why the hell are you here messing with me? Do you think all of this is a joke?"

"Are you having fun toying with me?Do you have sadistic nature that enjoys watching others suffering.Did you have your fair share of fun and enjoyed your sadistic tendencies by watching me groveling in pain so if you have that's enough."

The more he spoke, the more Lucas became agitated.

From the moment Lucas appeared in this world, he had always been in a vulnerable position.

He had gone through many sleepless nights, many days of grieving and reminiscing, many hours of self-doubt and many hours to cheer himself to walk further despite the death road waiting ahead of him.

He may look like a calm, cool and level-headed boy but he knew he wasn't. He knew better than anyone that he wasn't that.

He was just a simple college-attending boy of 20 years before coming here who hadn't even stepped into society to suffer the cruelty of society nor did he have ample experience that could help him to survive.

There were times he yearned for a break, yearned for enjoyable moments to visit an outing with family or friends or waste days playing games or watching TV or reading novels but he couldn't. He had to kill all his desires and grit his teeth to train regularly to sharpen himself.

But despite all their effort, there would always be something that he either overlooked or something happened that was beyond what he could handle.

There was a limit to the mental strain that he could handle in the world surrounded by many people but he had none whom he could call a proper friend with whom he could share his worries.

But now that he had found someone who knew who he was, his inner turmoil suppressed in his heart burst with all this uncanny feeling.

"Why do I have to take care of this world mess? Why me?"

"Let's talk about Julian.From glimpse it seems, you had a thing for her and she might also have a thing for you but that's not me. And the parents, they aren't even my own. I can't even handle my safety, so how can I save myself from death?"

"Why the hell do I have to act as the righteous guy to shoulder all this burden instead of throwing it all away?"

"And you who killed me. You snatched away my real parents who might be in bad condition while mourning for me. You took them away from me."

"So why don't I kill your Julian and parents to have my revenge? Wouldn't that level us now?!!"Lucas shouted trying to force a smile that startled Future Lucas for a moment

A deadly silence prevailed for a moment that was broken by Future Lucas' screeching laughter.

"Keke!"

Future Lucas walked forward and touching Lucas' chin, he spoke softly.

"Pal, you talk too much."

"I…"

BOOM!

A crimson light flashed in the space.

Before Lucas could answer, his head burst out like a popping watermelon.
