The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 49

Chapter 49: FULLDIVE [5]
****

In the end, Amon ended up discussing strategies with Charlotte for 6 hours on his watch.

Surprisingly, it didn’t feel boring chatting battle strategies with her. Rather, it felt quite good.

She was a remarkably good teacher as well.

Whenever he did not understand the basis of something or how it would work, she would patiently teach him the advantages and disadvantages of the move.

But then again, that was just her personality. Anyone would feel natural and good talking to her.

She didn’t ask him how well he could manipulate his blood, probably knowing how bad and weak he was and not pointing it out.

All she did was tell him to do his best and how even with small manipulation of blood, he could benefit the team.

She asked him about Klein’s element as well if he knew about it.

Fortunately, Amon knew everything about him because of his significance in the story.

His element was Water, which made Charlotte happy since he could deal with Michael.

In her plan, she told him that her [Earth] element was very advantageous against Alya’s [Fire] one and that she would be the one to handle her.

Even though she was 2 ranks below her, she still thought that she might be able to win.

She left Klein to battle Michael and asked him if he could fight for some time against Adam, until the former could hopefully arrive to help him.

They still didn’t know about the theme of the FULLDIVE so all they could do was make some predicting plans according to various possible themes.

It was concluded in the end that they would undoubtedly lose against their team in a team fight where two users [Fire] element would overpower Charlotte’s [Earth].

After making some small talk with his sister and pointing her toward the food, he also ended the chat with Charlotte late into the night.

She finally realized how immersed she had gotten in their conversation.

After wishing her goodbye and goodnight, Amon turned towards sleep as well.

Waiting for the next day.

[The Next Day]

Amon woke up, his eyes twitching from the burning rays of the sun impacting upon them.

[Wake up sunshine.] Zephyra spoke in his head.

‘Do you even sleep?’ He asked her.

[I mean, not really since I can share your senses. So when you sleep and wake up, I get the same feeling of being refreshed as you. But even cutting that aside, as long as I’m in this formless state inside your head, I don’t need to sleep.] She explained.

‘Ah, I see.’

[Anyway, it’s getting quite late you know? You slept too much because of going to sleep late.] She pointed out and Amon quickly turned towards his watch.

He saw that it was almost half an hour left before noon.

‘Fuck..’ Cursing at himself, he quickly got out of the bed and headed for the shower.

Coming out of his room fully dressed later, he fortunately saw no food left at the counter for him to eat.

He felt blessed for getting another day of not eating his sister’s cooking.

He started making himself some bread and jam sandwiches when suddenly Zephyra talked up in his mind.

[You know, you actually forgot to visit Lily yesterday.]

Amon’s hand stopped. He had completely forgotten to visit her because of the sudden rush of events yesterday.

He felt like he had committed a crime. But Zephyra wasn’t done yet.

[Also, you should give her some real food for once don’t you think?] She asked, seemingly trying to point at the sandwiches he was making.

Now, he felt like killing himself from the sadness.

Nevertheless, he quickly made some sandwiches for her and went out to feed her first before the other tasks.

***

Reaching the streets, he found her sitting at the same corner again, pale from hunger.

Her eyes were seemingly dead.

He hurried towards her and quickly crouched down, looking at her face.

For some reason, it was as if she had completely lost the color in her eyes that he had seen before.

“Lily! Are you okay?” He asked, worried for the girl.

Her eyes moved towards him and he saw color and joy return to them again.

A happy smile marred her features and she jumped into her arms, tears pouring from her eyes.

“Uncle!”

Not understanding the reason of her crying, he patted her back gently, waiting for her to stop patiently.

After some minutes, she finally stopped.

“What do to you?” He asked her in broken English. (Author Comment: Demon this is you fr.)

She wiped her tears and tried to fake a smile.

“L-Lily h-hungry uncle.”

He squinted his eyes, wondering if that was really the case.

Did the people in the streets do something to her?

He wasn’t sure but it might be possible.

He quickly took out some sandwiches and started to feed her.

Taking in the new taste, she opened her mouth in joy and started eating the food fast, causing him to give her some water.

She also handed him one, asking him to eat which he actually did.

At this point, Amon knew that he was very attached to the girl. So much that if someone tried to harm her, he would not even think about the consequences.

He thought of her as his little sister now and knew that he had to adopt her.

Unfortunately, he didn’t know what his sister would think of this and he had to ask her first.

There was also the matter of the piercing strong gazes he felt at his back whenever he tried to go.

Was it Lily? Was she someone else trying to disguise someone?

He didn’t think so.

No.

He was being dishonest, it was just his heart speaking cause he wouldn’t like to believe in such an outcome.

Taking all the feelings aside, he knew that he had to investigate this matter at hand first before he even asked his sister.

After spending some time with her, Amon left her some sandwiches to eat and parted ways with her.

Just like last time, he felt a strong pierce on his back.

But like always, he ignored it and moved through the streets like before.

But this time, something was different.

Whoever was responsible for this, completely missed something that he had done.

They ignored the minuscule microscopic device that he had attached to Lily when talking.

And at that moment, he was at least 90% sure now that it wasn’t Lily.

Because the tracker he had attached to her showed that she hadn’t moved from her spot whereas the piercing gaze on his back kept following him through the streets.

He sighed in relief as he took the last turn.

Now he just hoped that the remaining 10% would be fulfilled as well
