The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 60

Chapter 60: The Quest to Save Lily [2]
****

After being done with his breakfast and washing the dishes, Amon quickly looked at the time again.

11 AM.

There were still 2 hours before the appointed time for the meeting.

He thought about what to do and quickly decided on some shopping for the mission.

He was just about to leave when suddenly his eyes noticed something strange in the corner.

His face turned towards it and saw a long mirror, reflecting his whole body.

There was nothing too special or strange about the mirror.

But the sight in the mirror took back Amon by surprise.

When he had arrived in this world, the first thing he did was check himself in the mirror.

And what he saw was a frail, thin, pale-looking short boy who was nothing short or above average.

Everything about him screamed average.

However, the person he saw right now was completely different.

He immediately noticed how he had gotten taller. If he had to make an estimate right now, he was probably 5’11 which was a big leap from his previous 5’9 a week ago.

His thin pale arms had a good amount of muscles on now and his facial features had also sharpened and were more refined.

Overall, he had improved by a lot from his previous appearance.

And that was of course due to the constant increase in his body stats.

[Stop smiling like a fool….] Zephyra chimed in his head, sighing.

‘What? I can’t even admire my changes?’ He retorted.

[It’s fine to do it for some seconds but you are drooling over yourself right now…] Her voice trailed off at the end.

“Tsk.”

He clicked his tongue and took his gaze off of the mirror.

He got out of the door and locked it, before quickly looking over at his watch.

Opening the messaging function, he quickly opened his chat with the Cryptic Glories.

[Anonymous User: I want your services again.]

It did not take more than a few seconds for them to reply.

[Cryptic1: We are here anytime. What services do you require of us?]

[Anonymous User: I want you to do a search in the Black Market and around it for medium to large slave markets or houses.

[Cryptic1: Understood.]

[Anonymous User: If possible, send me the map blueprints of the markets and houses as well, combined with information about any slaves that they hold. Grab every possible information you can.]

[Cryptic1: We understand. We will get to it right away.]

Taking his eyes off his watch, he started walking towards the City Centre while also practicing his mana breathing and release constantly.

****

[After 40 Minutes]

He finally arrived at the City Centre.

But he didn’t head to HOU straight away. Rather, he chose to get some clothes for himself now that he had time.

His sister probably wanted to do that for him as well but never found time because of her duties.

It would be good to take one of her burdens off her shoulders.

He quickly started looking around for some good clothing shops.

Unfortunately, he knew nothing about them.

He didn’t even have experience with this in his previous life since it was always his sister selecting clothes for him.

‘You know how to pick clothes?’ He asked Zephyra.

The answer came after some seconds of silence.

[No…]

He sighed. He was in a dilemma now.

‘Nevermind, I’ll just pick whatever sui-‘ His thoughts came to an abrupt end as he thought of asking her sister of some shops.

Opening the messaging function, he messaged her quickly.

Unfortunately, no reply came after a long time. She was still busy probably.

Just as he was about to close his watch, he suddenly another contact just beneath her.

[Charlotte Von Sullivan]

He hesitated to message her. He didn’t even know her that well so asking her was obviously a no-go.

Unfortunately, he didn’t want to waste his money on some random clothes as he really had no money to waste.

‘Wait..does she even know about men’s clothes?’ He thought in his mind.

Probably no.

Ruffling his head at the hard decision, he swallowed his pride and asked her.

The way her personality was, she wasn’t going to mind it. Right?

Surprisingly, the reply came minutes after.

[Charlotte Von Sullivan: Yes actually. If your budget is between 100-500 gold, then the perfect shop for you is Edward Garments.] She replied.

[Amon Ashford: I see, thank you.]

[Charlotte Von Sullivan: No problem! Also, if you don’t mind me asking are you out for shopping?]

Finding no problem in telling her, he answered.

[Amon Ashford: Yes.]

[Charlotte Von Sullivan: Oh, I see. Actually, I’m in the City Centre as well. So if you don’t mind, can we meet after you are done? I want to properly discuss the FULLDIVE in person.]

Thinking about it for a few seconds, he agreed.

[Amon Ashford: Sure, no problem. I’ll be done in about 20 minutes, so we can meet after that. You can send me the location for the meetup.]

She replied instantly,

[Charlotte Von Sullivan: Thank you! I’ll see you there then. Have a good shopping!]

He smiled and replied with a ‘Thank you.’ and closed his watch.

Edward Garments. That was the shop she told him about.

Fortunately, it wasn’t that far away from his current location as he found it within a couple of minutes.

Then, he headed inside to buy himself a heap of clothes for the summer.

****

[After 15 Minutes]

Amon arrived from the shop, with multiple shopping bags filled with clothes in his inventory.

He stretched his body.

He quickly looked at his watch and found a DM from Charlotte after his last message. It was the location of the meetup.

Finding it not too far from him, he quickly headed over and saw her settled on a table outside the shop.

‘I quickly chose clothes to arrive early and save her time but she’s here even before me. But I guess that matches her personality. He thought.

Sensing his presence, she looked up from the menu and waved lightly at him, making him wave back as well and head over.

Settling down on a chair in front of her, he quickly greeted her.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you in person again after the event Miss Charlotte.”
