Reborn as an Extra

Chapter 79 Jin’s Backstory Part-1

(Severe Warning- those who canʼt digest the betrayals and have trust issues should not read this chapter. Why make yourself more depressed than you already are? Well if you still want to read, then read at your own risk.)

.

About twenty-five years ago.

The alliance has yet not made a law of giving subsidies to help the children living in orphanages and slums. Most of the laws to support the poor and weak people were actually first made after the Mass Human genocide about twenty years before Rio got admitted to the academy.

(A brief history of the Mass Human genocide- This incident was carried out by the collision of three different races. Orc, Undead, and Demons, these three races had made a collision attack on the human race in hope of destroying the existence from the face of the earth.)

(The top notch-people didnʼt care about the massacre of the people living in the slums until the central area of the human race was targeted. Eventually, humans formed an alliance with the Elf and Beast peopleʼs thus, finally ending the war with a draw.)

(Nearly Seventy thousand humans, most of them being from the slums were wiped out by this interracial war. Although other races also suffered huge casualties too. But the loss on the human side was the greatest as they had lost a few S-rankers in this war.)(Indeed the life of those S-rankers was the biggest loss not the life of those seventy thousand people.)

(In order for this situation to never repeat in the future the law was made that they will start to give minimum education in the slums and several other laws. With the help of awakeners they have already reduced the number of poor people by twenty percent in these past twenty years.)

.

Jinʼs story generally starts about five years before all this happened. Jin was born in a decent household with his parents both being B-rank awakeners. They both loved each other very much. Jinʼs future seemed rather promising, he has successfully completed the entrance examination for the greatest academy and in a few months, he was about to enlist.

”Father, where are you going?” (Jin)

As Jin looked at his father standing at the door about to leave for a new dungeon raid, Jin asked in a sad tone:

”Oh, I have to go to work, donʼt worry, I will be back in a few days, my son.” (Jinʼs father)

”B-but… Itʼs my birthday this weekend…” (Jin)

”I will be back before your birthday, my son.” (Jinʼs father)

”Hey, Jin you must be a good boy and let your father go to work, he will bring you lots of gifts later. Afterall he is going because he wants to buy you gifts!” (Jinʼs mother)

As Jinʼs father heard her talking in an annoyed tone, he replied:

”Hey, you donʼt have to talk in such a rude tone in front of the kid…” (Jinʼs father)

”Then why are you going on such a dangerous raid, just to buy such an expensive present for Jin? Itʼs too dangerous!” (Jinʼs Mother)

”I have to go. Itʼs important for Jinʼs future, I must buy him that strengthening potion before he gets admitted to the academy.” (Jinʼs Father)

”I am off now…” (Jinʼs Father)

Jin and his mother both just stood silently as they looked at him fading away from their sight, Jinʼs mother was worried sick for him for several days.

Jinʼs birthday came and passed but his father didnʼt return. While the anxiety and tension were increasing every day in their house. A group of B-rankers who were originally members of the raiding party appeared one day.

”I am the leader of the party, Mrs. Walt, I am very sorry to say this, but Mr. Walt has passed away during the raid, he died a valiant death, in order to save the party members as the vice-leader he sacrificed himself.”

”He earlier told me that he wanted to buy a high-class strengthening potion for his son with the money from this raid. Although I canʼt bring him back in compensation please take this potion and the money he has earned by saving the life of the party members…”

The huge shock of that news made Jinʼs mother depressed she didnʼt eat for several days. Meanwhile, Jin who was oblivious to this found the potion in a gift box on his study table. He happily drank it. Only later did he find out the truth.

.

After a few days.

”M-mother, please eat something you havenʼt eaten for several days now….” (Jin)

”Go away! I donʼt want to see your face! You are a cursed child! If only I havenʼt given birth to you, he would have been alive!” (Jinʼs mother)

Jinʼs mother threw the food on Jinʼs face and shouted:

”If only you didnʼt exist! Go away you cursed demon!” (Jinʼs mother)

That was the last time Jin saw his mother.

Apparently, she committed suicide that night by piercing her own heart with her blade.

.

A few months later.

After Jinʼs admission to the academy.

Jin was not having a good time in the academy he was separated from the whole class because everyone else considered him a cursed person, who ended up causing his parentʼs death. (Most of the students studying in the greatest academy are from rich backgrounds and have the ability to investigate their fellow studentsʼ pasts. Thus they already found out about his backstory. A few of them created the rumors of Jin being a cursed child, just for fun.)

Of course, thereʼs not everything bad in Jinʼs starting days. In his early days at the academy, he made a caring friend himself.

”They are still talking bad about you, even after you have scored such high marks in the mid-terms. People really have no insight…” (Alex)

”Whatever, I am already used to it. Itʼs not like that anything will change if I say something to them… I would remain the same cursed child who caused the death of his own parents…” (Jin)

”Seriously Jin, you should be more confident in yourself. It was all just an accident, you should move on in life. Your mother must not have meant those words, she was just too disturbed at that time. Be strong!” (Alex)

”Well, thereʼs no point in arguing with you, you wonʼt listen anyway…” (Jin)

.

.

Final Exam of the academy. Inside a dungeon.

”Hey, We saw that monster first, you two go away from here!”

As the arrogant boy screamed at Jin and Alex he laughed with his friend.

”A cursed child doesnʼt have the right to participate in this competition anyway, why donʼt you simply give up already!”

”Yeah, donʼt get your hopes too up just because you got some compliments from the teachers.”

Jin simply looked at them and sneered:

”I hear some desperate dogs bark at me, how amazing!” (Jin)

Hearing Jinʼs remark, the two kids became angry instantly, but didnʼt attack…

”What happened you donʼt have the courage to attack now? Hmph, you are indeed a desperate dog it seems. All bark no bite-” (Jin)

Just as Jin was about to curse the two kids, he felt pain in his chest. He looked down and found that a familiar sword with a familiar blue color has pierced his back and made a hole through his chest.

Jin turned his head and found that the very close friend of his, who he trusted the most has pierced his back and made a hole through his heart. (If you remember the time when I described Jinʼs scars, this one was the biggest of them all.)

”W-why…” (Jin)

”You are too talented, Jin. I hate that immense talent of yours. I have always hated the fact that you are so talented and I am continuously left behind by you. Sorry Jin, but I hate seeing you progress more than me…” (Alex)

The two kids who were mocking Jin on purpose also had huge grins on their faces. It was as clear as day that these three have collided to plot against Jin. These two distracted Jin, while Alex who Jin trusted the most backstabbed him.

Alex pulled out his sword and sheathed it.

”This cave is out of the monitoring range of the teachers, nobody will know what happened to you, so just peacefully accept your fate, Jin.” (Alex)

As Alex said that he started to walk towards the exit of the cave the other two.

”Goodbye, Jin Walt, the cursed child.” (Alex)
