RE: The Extra's Dominance-Chapter 74 - Bad Move, Professor [2]

’That peasant...!’

Pete tightly clenched his hands into fists.

He felt his anger rise toward Raven because he just ignored him and went to the bathroom.

Also adding the fact that Raven did that after breaking his mana barrier in front of the whole [Class A-1].

Pete felt humiliated...

Although it’s not his strongest, the mana barrier that Raven just destroyed is at least a quarter of his real power.

Pete was sure that it was dense at that time, so it’s really hard to believe that Raven just effortlessly cancelled it.

Pete is a [B] rank hero, and based on the information he got about his students; Raven is just an [F-] rank freshman and a non-combatant student.

That’s why he felt embarrassed—after all, for him; a low-rank student just destroyed his mana barrier!

’How did he do that...?’

Pete asked himself inwardly as he gnashed his teeth together.

He looks really stupid at the moment, and he already forgot that he’s supposed to be teaching the class right now.

*****

On the other hand...

(Raven’s POV)

Click-

I closed the bathroom door behind me after entering.

Then there, I was greeted by two more doors.

The bathroom’s layout is divided into two, one for female and one for male.

Of course I went to the male side.

"Wait..."

But before even nearing the door, I halted my steps and looked at the female side.

’I’m sure the female’s bathroom will be a lot more cleaner...’

I thought to myself and contemplated my next move.

After that, I perked my ears and enhanced my hearing with mana.

Then not long after... I just shrugged my shoulders and casually walked toward the female side.

Hearing that the classroom is awkwardly silent as no one is talking, I immediately got to the conclusion that no one will be coming into the bathroom for a moment.

’Not until I come out, at least.’

Tap—

Click-

So with that, I entered the female side of the bathroom without hesitation.

And right as I entered... I saw a huge mirror with a pink frame on the left wall, while the toilets and shower stalls are on the right side.

Not minding the girlish designs inside, I looked straight and saw my own reflection in the mirror.

"Holy cow..."

I muttered in shock and disbelief. I touched my face and looked at every nook of my body that’s reflected in the mirror.

Sharp and perfect jawline, pointed nose, beautiful pinkish lips, and mean-sharp but attractive starry black eyes.

That’s what I saw in the mirror.

A crazily attractive man!

"Man, I would fall in love with myself if I were a girl..."

I muttered under my breath.

Then my gaze went to my body.

My shoulders became broad, my muscles were firm and solid. It’s not bulging, but it looks perfect.

"This is just insane, I didn’t even dream to have a body like this my whole life..."

I then removed my eyes from my reflection in the mirror and looked at my lower body next.

It was muscular as well. But what I noticed the most is that my pants became shorter.

"Hmm, did I became taller?"

I muttered. And it looks like that was really the case.

And after confirming all the changes that happened to my body.

"Hah..."

A satisfied smile crept up on my face. I felt very happy.

I’m grinning ear to ear. I’m a human so it’s only normal to be this excited—I mean, who wouldn’t want a body like this?

"Alec who? Curtis who? The only handsome man I know is named myself."

I said to myself while looking at the mirror, then I winked.

I was really enjoying having such a body and face.

*****

After a few while, in the classroom—

Click-

All the eyes turned to the bathroom door. It just opened again.

And from there...

Tap-

They saw Raven come out with a wide smile on his face. He seems more confident than usual now.

"..."

The students are still silent as Pete is still in the room, making things awkward for them.

But just then, not minding the atmosphere— Raven casually walked and stopped in front of Pete.

"Sorry for the commotion, Sir."

He said without removing his grin.

It annoyed Pete, but he kept his emotions inside, and looking straight at Raven—

"Care to explain what just happened?"

He asked that in a serious tone.

And hearing that—

Raven suddenly frowned. He has no excuse in mind!

But instead of panicking, he activated his skills to think of a good answer and it only took him five seconds to make up a fake story!

So while looking at Pete straight in the eye...

"This is my real appearance."

Raven lazily but confidently declared that.

"What do you mean?"

This time, it was Pete who frowned.

All the eyes and attention were focused on them as they were curious too about what happened to Raven.

And in that moment... Raven gladly opened his mouth to explain.

"I was using an artifact to change my appearance into that, umm... Average-looking face."

"Earlier, when you used a high spell that cancels or interrupts one’s mana on my mana barrier; it was too strong for me... And I was about to receive a backlash..."

After a short pause, he spoke again while pointing at Pete.

"But then, your spell targeted my artifact after my mana barrier broke. And the effect of it disappeared, resulting in me reverting back to my original appearance."

Raven lied through his teeth like it was as normal as breathing. He even indirectly blamed Pete for all of this with his words!

Pete noticed it too, and the tension between him and Raven got even more intense because of that!

Gulp-

This made the nearby students around them two swallow a mouthful amount of saliva because of nervousness.

Anyway, holding himself back from throwing a punch... Pete instead opened his mouth.

"Let’s say what you said is true..."

He smirked before continuing.

"Then why were you trying to hide your real appearance, huh?"

Pete asked. he was suggesting that Raven is planning something bad.

Though, Raven just shrugged at his words. He already expected such a question.

’As expected of this lowly scum, pathetic shit of a human being. He’s basically trying to arouse suspicion about me being a spy from majins or demons.’

Tap-

With a small step, Raven—

He got closer to Pete.

They’re now face to face, but this time... Raven is slightly taller than Pete.

Just minutes ago he was a lot shorter than him. Now the tables had turned and Raven is looking down at Pete.

"Heh..."

He scoffed and smirked.

Crack-

Then a sound of bone cracking was heard from Pete! He was clenching his fists too hard!

He was really trying his best holding back to not attack Raven!

With Raven is in front of him and looking down at him, Pete really wants to kill him even more now!

But moving on... Ignoring his bloodshot eyes and veins that seem to be going to pop any moment.

Raven slouched down a bit next to Pete’s ear.

Then opening his mouth—

"I hid my real appearance because I’m too handsome."

Raven arrogantly stated that in a weak but clear and firm voice.

And now waiting for Pete’s reply, he just continued.

"Ruby doesn’t even know my real appearance, yet she already fell in love with me. So imagine if I revealed it... People will go crazy because I’m too handsome."

Raven’s smirk got bigger, then he stepped back and looked around the room.

Everyone is still looking at him.

Then looking back at Pete—

"See their reactions when it got revealed?"

Raven sarcastically asked that.

"Krrrg..."

Clenching his teeth tightly together, Pete struggled to speak without punching Raven.

"That’s... not a... good reason."

He said.

Then it was just a moment, but Pete saw Raven smile mischievously.

And after that...

Raven looked at him with sorry eyes, and opening his mouth—

"Oh, that’s right. For you, my reason seems unreasonable... Guess you wouldn’t understand me because you don’t have the same face as mine."

Raven muttered that with an apologetic tone and voice.

SWOOSH—

B A M!

Raven’s last words destroyed the small patience that was left within Pete!

He threw a fast punch toward Raven’s mouth with all his strength!

His right hand that he used for punching was covered with dense light blue mana and it’s raging like a fire!

A powerful air force was launched from his fist after he extended his arm, indicating how strong the attack was!

Though—

"Lol."

His fist hit nothing but the air

Raven is tilting his head to the left while looking at Pete straight in the eyes with a wolfish grin. He avoided it with ease!

"Bad Move, Professor."

Raven then said that in a playful and provocative tone. He rage baited Pete into attacking him.

"...!"

And realizing that, Pete’s eyes widened.
