The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 110

Chapter 110: Talk with Elizabeth [1]
***

“Alright, that’s enough.” Athena’s command came from the side.

Turning back to her, Amon saw her nod.

“It is as Arthur said. Your body is falling apart and your pathways are jumbled up.” Athena’s brows creased into a frown.

However, Amon’s mind wasn’t there at the moment.

All he could do was stare at the cracks on his hand and the scream of Zephyra.

He understood now.

His body at the moment was like the torn pieces of a cloth.

Zephyra was the threads that were holding him together. If not for her, he would fall apart.

And [Void] at the moment was like a fire to those threads.

The moment he used it, those threads would start to burn.

“But by some miracle, something inside your body is holding you together. I can’t sense what it is.” Athena continued.

Amon snapped back to the conversation.

He saw her left eye shine in an amethyst glow, revealing a slightly black 9-leaf clover.

Its shade started to get darker by each second.

Yes. Just like Arthur who had his clover mark on his right eye, Athena had her clover mark on her right eye.

“Yes, your whole inner body is in turmoil right now.” Her left eye faded back to normal black.

“Though, just like Arthur said, your [Void] is just like [Space].” She crossed her hands.

She gazed at him intently. At the stoic face of his.

For a moment, Amon saw her mouth twitch.

“Okay, you want to get stronger and increase your mastery?” She asked.

Again, he saw her mouth twitch.

Ignoring it, he nodded.

“Fine, report to my office once a week for your progress. You will be my research student now for the public.” She reported to him.

Amon tilted his head in confusion.

“Though yes, we will start our training back when you are training, you will report once a week to me to show your progress and for me to check on you.”

Understanding her words, he subtly nodded.

“I understand.”

Her mouth twitched again.

“Good, to let you come here and not make others suspicious, you will now be my research student because of your low grades.” She informed him.

Athena took a card out from her drawer and handed it to him.

“Here, just hand it to any guard and he will let you go.”

Taking the purple card, Amon nodded.

“Thank you.” He thanked her.

Athena shook her head.

“That doesn’t mean I’m going to let you get this for free.”

“Hm?” Amon questioned.

Her mouth twitched once more.

“I want you to help Ren with his training and element. You are close to him right?” She asked.

He nodded.

“So…”

“Not just as a teacher, but as his older sister, I ask you to please help him in his training and be friends with him.” She looked down just an inch, as if bowing to him.

Amon raised his hand in retortion.

“There’s no need. Ren is my good friend. I would help him with whatever he needs regardless whether you ask or not Miss Athena.”

She looked up and nodded.

For a moment, Amon saw a faint relieved smile on her lips.

Then, concluding their discussion, Amon stood up to leave.

“You can report this weekend to me.” Athena informed and he affirmed.

Again, he saw her face twitch.

This time, Amon didn’t hide him, noticing it.

She noticed him staring but didn’t say anything.

Seeing her give no reason for it, Amon shrugged internally and turned to leave.

As he opened the door to leave, Athena’s voice suddenly came again.

“Do…”

He looked back and found her hesitating to ask further.

“Hmm?” He tilted his head, waiting for her to finish.

And she did.

“Do you have any gum?”

“….”

“….”

Amon’s shoulders trembled.

She stared at him incredulously before a frown creased her brows.

“No, don’t you dare.”

But he couldn’t hold it in as his eyes became bloodshot.

“Pffft.”

He broke out laughing, not caring for who he was standing in front of.

And with his next line, Athena’s eyes widened and her worst fear came true.

“You and Ren are exactly the same in everything.”

**

Amon came out of the building, with his heavy heart somewhat light now.

He handed the card back to the guards and left the block.

As he walked on the road to find another carriage, he suddenly saw someone very familiar.

Someone who was involved with him in the recent accident.

With her long white hair tied into a long ponytail that exposed her nape, she was wearing a tight black spot outfit that clung to her body.

It was wet and she was sweating.

Amon looked to where she came from and noticed the Clovist Training Grounds in the far distance.

As he was about to ignore her and move in another condition, her head snapped in his direction.

Whether she sensed him or just did it instinctually, he didn’t know.

Her silver gaze locked with his abyssal black eyes.

Pretending to not have noticed her, Amon tried to walk further.

He didn’t want to face her right now. At least not in this condition.

However…

“Amon! Wait.” She called him out.

He pretended to still not hear her.

However, he had just taken a step when a hand landed on her shoulder.

He looked behind and saw Elizabeth staring at him with a neutral gaze.

He stared at her stoically.

“You didn’t hear me?” She asked.

“No.” He flatly replied.

Amon was really grateful to her for saving his life, yes. And he wasn’t really trying to ignore her.

It was just that, his emotions were in a turmoil right now and his body condition was messed up.

“Can we talk?” She asked.

Amon hesitated internally.

But after some seconds of thought, he chose to just relent.

Whatever.

He would just get done with it.

“Sure.” He replied.

Contrary to his thoughts of her taking him to a shop, she took him to a secluded alley.

Coming to stand where no one could see us, Amon stared at her without a word.

She had asked for him, so she needed to be the one to start.

“So…” Elizabeth averted her gaze for a second before looking him in the eye and bowing down.

“Thank you so much for saving my life.”

Amon tilted his head in confusion.

It wasn’t like he was doing it for her.

If he fucked up, then he was dead as well anyways.

Nevertheless, he accepted and nodded.

“It’s nothing. Is that all?” He asked.

Then she averted her gaze again before looking at him again after a few seconds.

“And well, about your true power…”
