The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 75

Chapter 75: The Quest To Save Lily [17]
****

Arthur Milize.

There was not a single person in the human domain that didn’t know about him.

Although possessing many feats and titles, there were 2 things that he was best known for.

First. He was the only 10-leaf clovist in the world.

Second. He was the only person in the world that possessed an element that was never seen in history.

And that was the element of [Shadow].

However, this was only the general information that the public knew about his power.

The thing that the public didn’t know was that just like Amon, he was a dual elemental clovist.

Meaning, he possessed dual elements. Because of the public not knowing this information, it made them think that dual elementals never existed.

However, it would all be changed from this point now that people like Amon, Ren, and Michael had appeared.

Only a select few people in the human domain knew about him having a second element.

The Emperor and Athena were included in them. Also, the reason why he was placed 1st on the Collective Ranking List.

Because they knew about his second element.

And it wasn’t that his second element was a normal one. If it was, then he would have probably been tied with Athena or maybe slightly stronger.

But with his second element, the gap between him and Athena was astronomically large.

It was because his second element was [Time].

Absolute control over [Time] that had been honed throughout the years.

Moving back to the present, Amon had lost consciousness, slumping to the ground with Lily in his arms who had fainted due to heat as well.

He was barely hanging on to the last threads of his life right now.

Ignoring whatever was in front of him, Arthur looked back at the masked man and Lily.

His gaze lingered for a few moments, but then his smirk turned into a gentle smile.

“Dumbheads…..but I guess that’s what I like about you guys heh.” He remarked.

Suddenly, a sharp whistling noise cut through the air before suddenly it disappeared.

Or more accurately, it halted.

Arthur looked forward, finding a 1-meter large wind blade inches away from him, completely stopped.

It was encased in a golden transparent chronic shield that had several runes running around the shield horizontally and two watch dials moving clockwise.

His gentle smile turned back into a cocky smirk.

“Oh?” He moved forward, the circle moving away from him accordingly.

He looked around him, finding various ashes and embers still lingering in the air with the stench of blood and flesh tinging the atmosphere in a gory light.

Norman, who was blasted away into a wall, stood up with his spear in hand.

His expression was furious and in disbelief at the same time.

He couldn’t believe how his attack had not only been completely disintegrated but the fire had also been completely extinguished.

He had killed all of his slaves just to kill the intruder but now his plans were completely ruined with the arrival of this stranger.

His head was steaming right now.

And as if that humiliation wasn’t enough, the man was completely ignoring him and looking around casually, as if he was nothing but a piece of trash.

But it was then that suddenly, the wheels in his head started to click as he took a careful look at the shield encasing his attack.

A chronic golden shield.

And a young man with a golden monocle in his right eye.

Instantly, horror enveloped his complete being as he lost his strength and fell to the ground.

He recognized this man now.

The headmaster of this academy and the man who was missing for 2 years.

Arthur Milize.

And his terrible thoughts were confirmed as Arthur finally looked back at him.

His eyes were now different, which confirmed to Norman that it was the real deal.

The right eye, the one behind the golden monocle, was now a golden medieval clock.

The abyssal black watch hands inside the eye were constantly rotating, indicating that he was using his [Time] element right now.

The golden watch eye perfectly fit in the outline of the monocle, as if it was a real pocket watch engraved into his eye.

His previous look now was completely gone. He was no longer cocky.

Cold furious rage was bursting out of him as his mouth opened to speak, fatal and cold words coming out.

“What happened here? You have 3 seconds to explain.”

Norman shrieked in horror, knowing that those 3 seconds were obviously visible to him in Arthur’s eye.

It was then that he suddenly noticed the lack of lighting and how black it was, making him move his gaze to the floor.

His eyes widened.

The previously concrete purple floor was now completely pitch black, with a creepy cold air emitting from it.

Not caring anymore, Norman waved his spears, conjuring several wind blades that were launched again toward Arthur.

Unfortunately, they didn’t even make it past 1 meter as suddenly, a knightly figure rose from the shadows.

It was completely black and wearing a knightly armor, with blue flames shining from the slit in his helmet.

The wind blade connected with the armor and completely disappeared, not affecting the figure in the least.

At the same time, multiple figures rose from the shadows throwing Norman into a frenzy.

Giving into his primal instincts, he started launching wind blades in every direction without a thought.

Multiple of them connected with a weak shadow, making it start to disintegrate into black flames.

However, as soon as it happened, another chronic shield appeared around the shadow and a clock-reversing sound was heard.

And in the next second, the shadow was back alive, in its healthy condition.

Losing all his mana, Norman’s spear hand slumped to the ground, losing his will to live.

With his regal wooden cane tapping hard against the shadow floor, Arthur walked back towards Amon and Lily.

The only sound that could be currently heard was the faint crackle of embers and the hard tapping of his cane.

As he reached both of them, a shadow lifted both of their bodies, carrying them in its arms.

He then looked back at Norman, who had a shadow sword at his throat now by the previous knight, who stood beside his slumped body.

Arthur took a single glance and then turned to leave.

But suddenly, Norman couldn’t bear it anymore. He could not afford to let his business which had been built over multiple years crumble just like this.

“WAIT! YOU FUCKER!” He shouted, making him turn slightly back with a tap of his cane,

His right golden watch eye met the dirty brown ones of Norman, making a creepy chill run up his spine again.

But he bore it.

“YOU ALLOWED US TO OPERATE IN THIS AREA! YOU WERE THE ONE WHO FORMED THE CONTRACT AND ALLOWED US TO DO OUR BUSINESS HERE!”

Arthur remained silent for a few seconds after his yelling.

Then slightly tilted his head in confusion, his cold voice coming out.

“And?”

Norman’s mouth twitched in desperation.

“IT WAS A CONTRACT YOU FUCKER. YOU ARE GOING AGAINST IT NOW, THIS ISN’T FAIR!!”

Arthur instantly replied.

“Yes. I made the contract with you guys and now I’m breaking it one of you. It’s as simple as that.”

Then he turned completely back.

“I think you are mistaking it. It was I who allowed you to work here. If I wanted, I could eradicate each one of you slum rats in a single minute. You think they would dare to oppose me?”

For a couple of seconds, there was silence in the room with Norman clenching his hands in anger, blood seeping out of them.

“IT ISN’T FAIR. WHO ARE YOU TO GO AGAINST YOUR TERMS. WHY ARE YOU ALLOWED TO DO THIS? THIS IS COMPLETELY UNFAIR!” Norman shouted, tears streaming down his eyes.

Without answering, Arthur turned back to the shadow that was carrying Amon and Lily’s body.

He briefly turned to his other shadows.

“Kill them all.”

After that, all of the shadows disappeared and he prepared to descend into the shadows.

But just as the knight was about to slice the neck of Norman, Arthur turned back to meet his desperate gaze.

“Cause I’m the strongest. And you just happen to be disgustingly weak.”

Then he disappeared into the shadows, and a sharp slice was heard in the air.

SLICE!
