Transmigrating as an Extra, But the Heroine Has Regressed?!-Chapter 61: Emergency at Frostveil Mountain?

BOOOOM!!!

A powerful explosion tore through the air, hurling Kael backwards like a ragdoll. He was thrown

several meters, crashing hard against the stone wall of the dungeon.

Dust and smoke filled the space.

Kael lay motionless on the ground. His clothes were torn, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and his body was covered in burns and bruises.

He tried to move—but pain shot through every muscle. He couldn’t lift a finger.

"...Aahhh..." he groaned weakly, barely able to speak. His vision blurred as he slipped in and out of consciousness.

Meanwhile, far from Kael’s position—

A thunderous boom echoed through the dungeon.

Cecelia froze. Her eyes widened.

"...What was that?"

The sound had come from deep within the tunnels—and it was loud enough that the rest of the group heard it too.

"Did you hear that?" one student whispered, gripping their weapon tightly.

Another looked around nervously. "Was that... an explosion?"

More voices rose in murmurs and panic.

"Could it be another assassin?"

"Is someone hurt?"

Professor Yulia came sprinting down.

"Everyone !" she shouted. "Head toward the sound!", said Edwin.

Cecelia didn’t wait. She ran ahead and her heart was pounding, dread building with every step.

(Kael... Please be okay.)

The three assassins who had been captured earlier sat on the ground, their bodies bruised and bound tightly in ropes. Despite their injuries, they spoke in low, shaken voices.

"Huh... Did he really self-destruct?" one of them muttered, eyes wide with disbelief. "Who was he fighting?"

Another assassin frowned, his face pale. "Who did he face? That strong? Strong enough to force him to blow himself up?"

The third one gritted his teeth.

"Damn it... We underestimated them. We thought these students would be easy."

The three fell silent for a moment, realizing how badly they had misjudged the situation.

Meanwhile, a group of students and professors had arrived at the scene of the explosion.

When Cecelia saw Kael lying on the ground with the blood spill around, still, and motionless—her heart dropped.

"Kael!" she screamed and ran toward him.

Professor Yulia’s eyes widened in shock. She immediately reached into her robe and tore a talisman marked with the Arcadia Academy seal. The magical paper burned away in her hand, activating a signal for emergency medical support.

As the magic slowly disappeared into the air like glowing dust, Professor Yulia looked around.

The ground was blackened and burned from the explosion. Pieces of stone and rubble were scattered everywhere. The air still smelled like smoke and ash. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

It was clear that something powerful—and dangerous—had happened here.

(What happened here? Was this really just a student fight...?) Professor Yulia thought.

(don’t tell me he...)

She knelt beside Kael with Cecelia, both of them quickly checking his condition.

He was badly injured—his clothes torn, skin bruised and burnt, and a trail of blood at the corner of his mouth.

"...He’s still breathing," Professor Yulia said softly, pressing two fingers to his neck.

"But it’s weak. Very weak."

Kael’s chest rose and fell with short, rough gasps.

Cecelia’s eyes filled with worry.

"Hang in there, Kael... please..."

At the Academy!

The moment Professor Yulia tore the emergency talisman, the air around her shimmered with the light. The magical paper dissolved into glowing sparks.

Within seconds, that signal reached the office of Arcadia Academy.

Principal’s Office – Arcadia Academy!

Inside one of its quiet, high rooms, shelves were filled with old books, scrolls, and magical objects that gave off a soft glow.

It was peaceful—until something suddenly appeared.

A glowing light floated in the air.

It was the signal from the emergency talisman and was urgent.

It pulsed in front of Principal Aldric too, who had been reviewing reports behind his desk.

(from the Frostveil mountain?).

The moment he saw it, his calm expression changed.

He stood up immediately. A heavy silence filled his office.

"What happened this time?" he said quietly, though his tone was sharp and full of concern.

He waved his hand, and the light expanded, displaying a flashing mark that signified only one thing—an emergency field call from a professor.

His eyes narrowed. "Yulia wouldn’t activate that unless it was serious."

Infirmary – Arcadia Academy!

Back in the academy’s infirmary, the moment the talisman triggered the emergency ward, glowing sigils on the walls and floors began to light up.

All the infirmary staff sprang into action.

"Emergency response! O some severely injured person!" a staff member called out, already preparing a healing bed with magical runes.

Others ran to gather potions, bandages, and enchanted scrolls for faster recovery.

One of the healers turned to the others. "It came from the Dungeon Zone . That’s where the first-year groups were sent!"

"This emergency talisman came from Frostveil mountain".

"Dungeon quest? How could it go this wrong?" another muttered, setting up a mana stabilizer.

In the Academy Courtyards – Among Second and Third Years student!

They saw the emergency backup going outside the academy.

In the training yards known as Ground One for Second year and Ground Three for third-year students began murmuring and gathering in groups.

"What’s going on?" one student asked, tightening the straps of his gloves.

"I saw the emergency talisman! Was that... a talisman call?" another replied.

"I heard it came from the dungeon zone. Are they really sending backup—for the first years?"

A third-year scoffed. "Pfft. Those bunch of losers? What did they do now, fall into a trap set by weakling beasts?"

But another student stepped forward, voice serious.

"No. I overheard a professor. They went to Frostveil Mountain for their dungeon test. That place isn’t a joke. When we were in the first year we took five days to complete and to return."

A hush fell over the group.

"Wait... Frostveil? "

"Exactly. If something went wrong there..."

The students exchanged nervous looks, and even the most arrogant ones stopped laughing.

Group One and Group Three Hear the News

Meanwhile, Group One and Group Three, still in different parts of the dungeon, were gathering after finishing their assigned paths when they heard the signal and the whispers carried by wind magic from the academy.

"The emergency also alarmed Professor Sylvia".

"Did this emergency come from Group Two’s direction’s dungeon," one student in Group One said.

"Should we follow?"

Group Three nodded. "We’re not leaving anyone behind. If something attacked them, it might still be there."

"Let’s go!" someone shouted.

Without hesitation, both groups began moving quickly through the dungeon’s paths, their footsteps echoing through the stone tunnel.
