RE: The Extra's Dominance-Chapter 80 - Raven The Villain [3]

"[Lightning Bolt]"

BZZZT—

A powerful discharge of electricity occurred from my right hand after chanting.

BOOM!

The electricity I expelled destroyed all the security devices attached to the safe before they could even let out alarm noises.

But the safe was still doing fine and it remained locked.

Which was what I already anticipated, as I could feel mana from it.

So without removing my hand from the safe—

"[Devour]"

SWOOSH~

I activated a skill of mine. The safe got engulfed by something black, and soon the mana covering it started to disappear.

Then when the mana from the vault was completely gone—

I retrieved my right hand, took a small step back.

Then I leaned my right hand backward as far as I could and turned my torso to the right.

I started accumulating mana to my right hand.

Bzzzt-

Bzrrit-

Black electric particles and sparks were produced as the mana in my right hand got denser and denser.

Soon, I folded my right hand into a fist and tensed every muscle I could in my body.

And not long after...

Tap—

I took a step forward with my left foot, then twisted my torso violently to the left side.

Using the momentum I had, I extended my right arm forward and launched a punch!

BZZOOOOM—!!

An ear-deafening explosion was produced as my fist clashed with the vault!

The wall where the safe was attached shook a little, and small debris fell along with Sean’s self-portraits.

Not that I minded any of that, as I kept my eyes straight on the safe.

TING-!

The metal door protecting all the things inside the safe shattered and fell to the ground.

-Kyuuu!

Then Yuki tweeted happily when she saw what was inside the safe.

There were jewelry, gems, gold, and useless expensive items that I probably wouldn’t buy.

And at the very back of the safe was a small USB. I ignored all the expensive items. Well, Yuki didn’t—she stored them all immediately in her spatial storage.

Not that I minded.

Anyway, I grabbed the USB with a satisfied smile on my face.

"Objective one over two, done."

I mumbled. Then I started collecting all of the paintings and Sean’s self-portraits and put them all in one place.

And once I was done doing that—

I aimed my right hand at the pile of trash.

’This probably cost him a lot.’

I thought.

[You... You would do great at being a villain.]

The system said to me as it read my plan.

I just smiled at the system.

"Thanks."

Then I muttered before turning my attention back to the pile of trash in front of me.

And without hesitation—

"[Ember]"

I cast a 1st-tier magic.

Swaaah~

A small fire appeared from one of Sean’s self-portraits.

SWAAAOOOH—!

But it soon became bigger as I used my 2nd attribute’s skill, <Wind Manipulation>, to make the fire stronger.

Looking at the raging fire in front of me, I slyly smiled.

"Annoying Sean, along with erasing any possible evidence I might have accidentally left."

I moved carefully to make sure I wouldn’t leave any trace behind or anything that could point this incident to me.

’But there’s no harm in being more careful.’

I thought and shrugged my shoulders.

[Are you actually a demon?]

The system asked me.

"Nah, I didn’t hurt any person... any good person."

I stated.

[...]

The system then just gave up and stopped making comments.

Yuki was already in my spatial storage as soon as the fire got stronger.

And after making sure that the fire was big and strong enough not to be extinguished easily—

Click-

I pressed the manual fire alarm button that was inside Sean’s room. I broke the automatic fire alarm earlier, as it would’ve been trouble for me if it immediately went off.

--WOOOOOOOOOO!!! WOOOOOOOOOO!!!--

A loud siren was heard and all the lights became brighter. This way, people would know something was wrong, and the brighter light would give them better sight to evacuate faster.

I can hear panic screams and sounds coming from the outside.

After that, I transformed into a cat and left Sean’s dorm through the balcony again.

But I didn’t really leave the dormitory yet—I just went down a floor.

I landed on a balcony that was connected to Barry’s room. It was smaller than Sean’s, but at least he had one for himself.

Anyway, because I let the alarm off, the people would naturally evacuate the building, as fire can still kill awakened people.

So Barry wasn’t in his room anymore.

Then, just like what I did to Sean’s balcony—

BANG!

CRASH—!

I broke the sliding door and went inside his room.

"Things are going smoothly..."

I mumbled and looked around inside Barry’s room. Like Sean, Barry was also watched by Yuki for at least some hours.

And that was enough, as Yuki found what I was looking for in that span of time.

I approached Barry’s bed.

Then I searched under his mattress.

RIIIP!

It was taking me a long time, so I just tore the whole thing down.

And after doing that, it didn’t take me long to find another USB.

Because unlike the overprotective Sean, Barry was more carefree and too confident that no one would steal something from him because of his family background.

I grabbed and stored the USB in my spatial storage.

-Kyuuu!

It was then Yuki came flying at me. She came out of my spatial storage after I entered Barry’s room and started looting any valuable items she could.

"Good job, Yuki."

I smiled and said to her, then I started looting the valuables she missed.

Looks like Yuki did a good job, as I only got 3 items.

Then after doing all that... I started a fire again inside Barry’s room.

And with that—I left, satisfied and with no regret.

...

...

*****

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!"

Sean yelled at the top of his lungs, with an enraged voice and expression.

He had just gotten back from stalking Eve, Adelle, and Aoi. And now he was looking at a raging fire engulfing his room!

"M-my room..."

Then not far away from him, Barry muttered in a weak voice with a shocked face. His room was in the same state as Sean’s.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

And after seeing both of their reactions, Raven started laughing maniacally.

He was in his cat form and watching everything behind a tree not far away from the two.

People had gathered by now, and they were looking at the raging fire as well.

Accidents like this hadn’t happened for a long time now, so the disaster response team must have been resting and weren’t able to respond immediately.

Accidents in Lunar were mostly students getting injured in duels, class, etc.

But Lunar wasn’t called the best academy for nothing—as just 1 and a half minutes after the fire...

The disaster response team consisting of 5 members arrived on the scene and immediately tried to put out the fire.

Though...

’Putting it out is a lot harder than starting it.’

Raven thought as he sneered at the response team. He was confident they would take minutes before putting out the fire, as he had scattered grease all over Sean’s and Barry’s rooms.

That’s why the fire spread and got stronger fast.

’So water isn’t a good choice.’

Raven’s thoughts were right.

Two men that uses water attribute tried to put out the fire with water. But it resulted in the fire spreading on the surrounding ground of the dormitory—and Ervin’s room being caught on fire too.

"I wasn’t planning to burn Ervin’s room... well, whatever."

Raven mumbled to himself.

It was then that the other three members of the response team, who seemed to be fire attribute users, started manipulating the fire directly... And it worked!

The fire greatly weakened and stopped spreading!

"Hmm, she should take action by now."

Just as Raven said that—

WHOOSH~

A huge amount of water, that seemed like a lake, floated in the air and stopped on top of the dormitory that was on fire.

Soon, the water fell onto the fire, and just as things were about to get worse—

SWISH—!

The water turned into ice!

Trapping the whole dormitory inside a gigantic block of ice!

Also stopping the fire altogether in one go.

"Damn... Ruby is really strong as hell."

Raven muttered in awe as he looked at the beautiful clear ice that stopped his fire.

Of course, everything was planned by him—including the part where Ruby would stop the fire.

Everything he planned for today went smoothly!

’Now all I need to do is appear innocent and make things look like an accident...’

But Raven knew it was impossible, as Lunar had great heroes with incredible trace-tracking skills.

That’s why he requested Ruby to make the ice she would use to stop the fire as big as possible.

"They probably wouldn’t use fire to melt Ruby’s ice, as the building was literally on fire just seconds ago. And by doing other means to remove the ice, it will take them at least about three day."

And that’s when Raven’s traces might be found.

He was still considering the fact that he could still get caught, even after removing and destroying his traces.

Though...

’Three days... that’s enough for me.’

Raven thought to himself with a smirk. Then he started to walk away from the scene.

But it was then—

"Pspspspsps."

He heard someone calling a cat behind him, and that someone was directing their call toward him!

"...?!"

Raven’s steps halted and a frown appeared on his face.
