The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 180

Chapter 180: Team Battles [2]
***

Amon sighed.

‘These guys are really a handful..’

But it was a funny situation that made him laugh a little.

Fortunately, just like his sister, they didn’t mind the fact about him hiding his elements as well.

He made up a few similar reasons such as not being able to use them yet and etc for them as well.

But they respected his privacy and after all, it hadn’t even been 3 months since all of them had become friends.

Everyone had their secrets.

And having 5 elements as a secret was something big enough that it wasn’t easy to tell it to a group of friends you only know for 3 months.

As Amon sat on the bench with his arms crossed and his head looking down, he heard the footsteps of someone.

Someone who approached him.

He looked up and saw a familiar figure.

With unruly blonde hair, the boy stared at him with a bored expression on his face.

His indifferent golden eyes met his but Amon could see a hint of irritation on his features.

Amon raised his hand.

“Yo.”

He heard the subtle clicking of Adam’s tongue.

Ruffling his hair, the blonde-haired boy sat next to him on the bench.

His silent whisper entered Amon’s ears.

“You fucker…”

Amon knew why he was reacting like that.

But of course, he feigned ignorance.

Chew..Chew..

Amon’s lower jaw bobbed up and down as he chewed on his gum.

After that incident with Athena, he couldn’t help but admit that it was actually quite good.

It helped him stay focused and awake while also providing a nice flavor to his mouth.

Taking out his pack, he was about to pop another one in before his eyes looked at Adam.

He extended the pack to him.

“Want some?”

Adam looked at him with slightly widened eyes, his teeth silently grinding against each other.

But eventually, he relented and sighed deeply.

He took the gum from Amon and popped it in his mouth.

Amon smiled subtly.

Of course, he had taken out another one intentionally.

He knew how much this guy liked it as well. It wasn’t at the level of Athena.

But it was certainly an addiction. Athena’s case was something miles above from addiction.

“You want to ask me why I didn’t use my full power against you?”

Adam did a vigorous nod.

Amon crossed his arms, staring ahead.

“It’s simple…”

He turned to stare at him and gave him a cold smile.

“It’s simply because you weren’t even strong enough for me to consider you that worthy.”

Adam’s eyes widened at his provoking cold answer and lightning crackled around his palms for a second.

But Amon didn’t seem to be fazed as he leaned even closer.

“I mean I did say that I’d only use my full power if you were strong enough for me to do that.”

Amon said, referring to their old conversation.

“And from what I could see in that match, you couldn’t even win against my blood element.”

He tapped his finger against Adam’s palm, manipulating the blood inside it to form a needle and burst out a little.

Adam, who was a little perked up, calmed down at the realization.

Even though his words made him feel irritated as hell because he never found himself losing to anyone.

They were not wrong.

Amon had already said before the fight that he would only use his full power if Adam could last that long.

And Adam couldn’t, losing to just his blood element.

The proof was right there. It couldn’t be denied.

“Whatever.”

He waited for a second before saying.

“I’ll just crush you next time.” He said, not meeting Amon’s gaze.

Amon leaned back to his original spot, his smile still not fading.

He knew how much the guy hated losing to someone stronger than him.

His plan had worked.

Suddenly, a voice entered his ears.

“Are you two done making out?”

Amon’s head snapped towards the direction and he saw Alya standing there.

She looked at both of them with a fake disgusted expression, trying to lean away from them.

“What the fuck?” Amon asked.

“…” Adam kept completely silent.

But then, Alya laughed slightly.

“I’m just kidding.”

“…”

“…”

“Since there was a little time before our match stats, I thought we should form a small plan on what to do.”

“I see.” Amon nodded.

She turned to look at Adam, who was silent.

“You there, you were in the previous FULLDIVE with me as well weren’t you?”

Adam nodded with a stoic expression.

“Yeah.”

Alya affirmed back with a nod as well.

“Yeah, sorry for my attitude back then. I shouldn’t have left all of you guys without any coordination.” She apologized.

‘Knowing this guy, he would actually prefer it that way.’ Amon thought as he looked at Adam.

And just like he thought, Adam waved his hand as if to let the matter go.

“It’s fine. I rather prefer it that way.” He said.

Alya was surprised for a second but she nodded, understanding the vibes coming off of him.

Adam was a person who liked straight on fighting and humiliating his opponent more.

A more brutal way of approaching rather than a strategic one.

“Anyways, what do you two think about it?” She asked.

Amon nodded. He had no problems with it.

The only problem was…

He turned to look at Adam, expecting him to not say anything.

But to his surprise, he nodded as well.

And the blonde-haired boy looked at him.

“I can’t fall behind you.”

Amon raised his brows in surprise at the competitive change in him.

This was something that couldn’t be seen in the story for a long time until Michael fought against Adam.

Had his early presence in Adam’s life brought a change to him?

The good thing was that it was a positive change.

Something that Amon was happy to induce in Adam.

No.

Not just Adam.

Amon turned to look at Alya from the side.

Looking at her strategic personality and better communication skills, he also realized how much she had improved from the last time.

Something that was again brought into her by the early interference of Michael VS Amon.

She had changed for the better.

No, all of them had changed for the better because of his presence in their lives.

He wasn’t an extra in this story anymore.

Amon never was.

But now looking at them, he truly saw how impactful his change could be in the story.

Not just in the positive way always, but in a negative way as well.

He was now important in their lives.
