The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 107

Chapter 107: Sound, Void and Sun [7]
***

“Yo.” Arthur waved his hand with a smile to Michael.

The latter gulped, still not used to seeing this side of the principal.

Arthur jumped down from Amon’s bed and settled down on a couch.

He invited Michael on the opposite one and he respectfully settled down.

“There’s no need to act formal, we all here are males no?”

Amon looked at Arthur bafflingly.

He then looked at Michael who had a confused expression on his face.

He probably didn’t understand what he meant by that but he still obliged with a nod.

Clapping, Arthur settled back on the couch.

“Good. In any case, brat I won’t forget your debt.” He pointed a finger at Amon who nodded.

“Michael woke up a day before you so I had given him a rundown on the situation.”

Michael nodded.

“I’m sure you are well aware that I know about your element boy.” He looked at Amon.

The latter subtly nodded.

It wasn’t surprising. This was one of the reasons why Arthur didn’t rescue them just yet.

He wanted to see all their powers.

“Besides your [Crystal] element and [Blood] element, that new element of yours…” He pondered with a hand on his chin.

“I can’t put quite a thought on it…it’s [Space] yet something far above it at the same ti-”

“It’s [Void].” Amon answered it blatantly.

He saw Michael’s head turn sharply toward him, baffled.

His gaze seemed to ask ‘Are you stupid?’

But Michael didn’t know.

He needed to gain this man’s trust and strength.

Amon needed Arthur Milize as an ally. As a friend and as a teacher.

This was the only way he could cement himself in this world and grow stronger.

Arthur Milize.

Despite being the strongest person in humanity and the principal of the 3rd largest academy on all continents, he was the person who had the most mystery around him in the novel.

Not a single person in humanity could kill him.

Yet, he died 4 years before the awakening of the Ghoul Emperor.

The Imperiac had stated the cause of his death as old age, but Michael in the novel knew it was a blatant lie.

He was never able to find out the real cause of death of Arthur.

People even used to say that if Arthur was alive at the time of the awakening of the Ghoul Emperor, then the latter was surely done for.

And looking at Arthur’s power, Amon himself could testify to that.

But looking at his power and age right now, he could also not find himself believing that a man of this caliber died to old age.

It was impossible. Never.

Even though his [Time] element sped up his aging process, it was literally a delusion to believe that this man would die in 4 years.

Regardless, Amon would just find out later.

The best way to do that was by becoming close to Arthur.

And now that the opportunity had presented itself, he was going to make full use of it.

Not only was he going to find the real truth to it, but he was also going to learn a lot and get stronger.

And if his reason for death was actually old age, well, then that was that.

“It’s space but advanced at the same time. More like a corrupted version of it.” He explained.

Arthur stared silently for a second before nodding.

“I see.”

He had probably confirmed it with the monocle that he was telling the truth.

“So you are a tri-elemental clovist?” He questioned and Amon shook his head.

A flicker of shock passed through his eyes.

“You have more elements and you are trusting me with this information?” He questioned.

Amon nodded before shrugging.

“It isn’t you didn’t know this information already.”

Arthur squinted his eyes.

“Come out with the truth boy.”

A smirk layered on Amon’s lips.

“I’m sure you know my purpose.”

The principal’s brows raised for a second before a smirk came back on his lips.

“You brat….you still need to accomplish what I asked first.”

“I know.”

Arthur then got back to the topic.

“You have more elements then?”

“I do. One more. And that is [Sound].” Amon answered before flicking his fingers making an echo resound in the room.

Arthur nodded intriguingly.

“That’s it?”

Amon clicked his tongue before nodding.

This man was continuously using questions to probe out the secrets from him.

If only Amon wasn’t in such desperation of him.

Then, Arthur turned to Michael.

“You have 4 elements.”

At his statement, Michael was about to nod before the man continued.

“That’s what an observer would think and say at least.”

Michael’s expression froze.

“Just like this brat here, you have a unique element, one that has never been seen before. And just like this brat’s element, your element relates with an element as well.”

Arthur adjusted his monocle as Michael kept looking at him bafflingly.

Amon felt the need to facepalm himself.

‘This guy really doesn’t know how to control his facial expressions…’

“Though that fire on your arm in the fight may have been normal fire to a normal observer, it had a deeper shade of red and much more mana refinement in it,” Arthur stated.

Michael, who couldn’t take it anymore, blurted out.

“H-how do you know this?”

At his question, Arthur flicked at his monocle.

“This thing isn’t just for show boy.”

Amon subtly nodded from the side.

The artifact wasn’t just for detecting if things were a truth or lie.

It could do much more than that. And one such thing was to check the quality, quantity, and refinement of mana in an individual.

He could also see the elements in that person’s mana.

This was why Amon was already convinced that he knew of his elements since the time he had met him in the hospital.

But to Michael’s surprise, Arthur didn’t press upon it and leaned back on the couch.

“In any case, I’m not going to press you about them. In fact, the reason why you people are here and not the infirmary is because I know you don’t want the outside world to know about them right?”

Amon looked at Michael who looked back at the same time.

They both nodded at each other after some seconds before turning back to Arthur.

They nodded at him, expressing they didn’t want him to spread this about them.

Arthur nodded back.

“Understandable. Just a duo elemental is enough to cause an uproar in the kingdom, not to mention two quadra elementals.” He massaged his temples.

“I can’t image what those royals would do. Especially the Emperor, he can be a di*khead at times.” He cursed freely.

Amon’s jaw dropped as he looked at Michael.

But contrary to his expectations, he had a neutral expression on his face.

Then he looked back at Arthur who kept ranting bad things about the Emperor.

Taking note of his gaze, he looked up.

“What?”

Amon gestured towards his eyes to Michael.

Arthur kept staring for a second before his mouth suddenly contorted into an ‘o’ shape.

Amon sighed.

‘I’m glad this man finally under-‘

“Yo brat, go tell your father for me that Arthur said you are a coc*su*ker would you?”

Amon facepalmed.

‘Of course, what was I expecting?’

Fortunately, Michael said nothing but nodded with a chuckle.

“Good chap.” Arthur was about to stand up before Michael and Amon looked at each other again and spoke back.

“”We will reveal our power ourselves.””

Arthur turned back.

“Huh?”

“We’ll reveal our power to the world by ourselves at the mid-terms. In the matches.” Amon answered and Michael nodded back.

Arthur kept gazing silently before a wide smirk layered on his lips.

“I guess these mid-terms are going to be a blast.”

They both nodded.

“Whatever brats, do what you want. It’s up to you. Though our deal still stands, and now I’m saying it the same for Michael as well.” He looked back at Amon and Michael.

“Both of you chaps have interesting powers. Pull a tier-5 familiar and place 1st and second at the mid-terms and then we’ll talk.”

Amon nodded while Michael was left baffled.

“Surely you can do that, ‘quadra-elementals’.” He emphasized the last word.

Amon smirked.

Then, he waved his hand and started to leave.

But just as he was about to finally melt in the shadows, he looked at Amon.

“To help you out, I’ll tell ‘her’ about your [Void] element.”

‘Oh….fuck.’ Amon cursed in his thoughts as Arthur finally melted into the shadows, not giving him any chance to respond.

But even then, he wasn’t done yet.

“Also, check your mana pathways. You made a mess of them.” His voice echoed in Amon’s mind.

A horrified expression came on his face as he quickly checked his pathways.

Instantly, he felt pain travel in his body at an unimaginable speed.

Yup.

They were messed up. Totally.
