The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 114: A Smile Lost In Time [1]



***

Amon's whole being was shivering with fear.

His thick clothes were drenched in sweat, and his eyes were widened.

He looked at himself, engulfed in uncontrollable trembling.

"Amon? Are you good?" she asked.

He flinched at her voice and quickly looked up.

Composing himself to some degree, he nodded with a slight smile.

"I'm sorry, the spatial travel is affecting my body. Go ahead, I'll catch up in some minutes." He apologized.

She looked at him for a few seconds before nodding.

It wasn't uncommon to feel unusual after spatial travel so she didn't think anything of it.

"I'll wait for you ahead of where the students are assembled." She informed before starting to walk away.

He stood still, watching her departing back while biting his lip to suppress the shivering.

As soon as her silhouette faded away from view, he exhaled heavily before taking several more gasps.

After some seconds, he finally calmed down before settling down on a cobblestone bench in the wooden shelter.

'The fuck happened?' He questioned himself.

But he more or less had an idea of what happened.

Rolling up his sleeves, he secretly unwrapped the bandages on his arms.

As they came off, his eyes widened more.

The cracks on his arms...

They had reduced by a large amount.

There were only some large and minor ones left now.

However, the purple energy that held them together was much fainter now.

He knew what happened.

All this time that Zephyra had spent trying to patch up his body, it finally worked.

The cracks had sealed up and his memories returned to some extent.

The visions he saw were the memories that he lost of this arc.

Of what was going to happen in this arc.

But after patching up his body and memories, the energy had turned into a fainter shade. Zephyra had probably gone into a hibernation or tired state.

Which meant that the next time his body would be fixed, it was going to be after a long time.

He sighed. It seems that he was going to need to do this arc without any knowledge.

Even if he didn't intend to follow the plot, the future knowledge helped him in many ways.

In any case, he couldn't do anything about it.

He had nothing to start with as of right now.

For the memories he just got...

They were more or less close to useless.

They gave him nothing but just a bunch of outfits and creepy voices. Yes, they were hints.

But very vague.

All he could do was work his way around and hope to find some clues.

Taking a final exhale, he stood up and headed out of the shelter.

As he stepped out of the shelter, he opened his system interface.

====[ STATS AND SKILLS ]====

Leaves:◊0000000×

VIT: ◊ ◊ ◊≈

STR: ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

AGI: ◊ ◊ ◊

END:◊◊◊

INT: << ◊ ◊ ◊≈

He was surprised.

After the Daniel incident, all his stats except [VIT] and [STR] had increased by one point.

This was also a reason why all that torture and self-harm was worth it.

If he could get stronger by inflicting pain on himself, then he was all in for it.

In fact, before the incident, he used the threads and decay on himself.

And to his surprise, they actually increased his [Endurance] and [Vitality].

But it was such a minor increase that he didn't pay much mind to it.

He didn't have enough time anyway.

And after that incident, he never used [Void] because of Zephyra.

He never used that element after learning it hurt her.

But his surprise right now was because the sealing of cracks had just increased his [Vitality].

And if he focused on it, yes, it did increase. He could feel that his body and spirit were

invigorated.

He failed to notice before because of the deep fear that was etched in his body.

Next, he opened up his [Levels] screen.

[VOID]: Level 2**◊ ◊ ◊ ◊

[BLOOD]: Level 2×××◊ ◊ ◊

[LGHTNG]: Level 2×××◊ ◊ ◊

[SOUND]: Level 1◊ ◊ ◊

[CRYSTAL]: Level 1 ◊ ◊

There wasn't any change in it.

[Void] and [Crystal] had increased by one point during the Daniel fight.

As for the other elements, he leveled them up in the personal training room of her sister.

He still wasn't ready to use his [System Reward] and integrate Lightning with Blood.

After further analysis, he got to know that the loss in his [Blood] element was only about

20%.

Yes, it was quite weak right now. But after leveling it enough, he could do many things with it.

However, if he ever got into a pinch, he wouldn't mind using the integration.

He just wanted to see the best output he could get from the elements.

Done with the changes in his body, he closed the system.

It was surprising that he got no quests from the system for this arc.

Were the quests only given because he knew about the future?

It was surely possible.

Considering he knew nothing about the fut-

An interface opened up in front of him.

======[QUEST]======

Objective: Resolve the ??? incident

Time Limit: 7 Days

Reward: [Body Curation] [Curation of Zephyra]

Penalty: [Death of Zephyra] [Removal of Void]

Status: [Do you Accept? Y/N]

Amon looked at the quest in disbelief.

'The fuck?'

'Resolve ???, !?'

How was he supposed to resolve something when he didn't even know what it was?

Seeing the time limit of the quest, it was certain that the incident would take place in the 7

days of this trip.

The system never gave a quest that was supposed to occur outside of the time limit.

He didn't know what he was supposed to do.

He wasn't sure he could resolve it in the 7 days without a single clue.

But...

The rewards were tempting.

He didn't know how long it would take for him to get his body back in shape.

But even more than that, he wanted to see Zephyra again.

He didn't want to meet her after a long time.

But...

The rewards were cruel as well. If he failed, then he was done for.

At least without accepting, he could see her after some months.

Thinking about it while standing in the same spot for a long, Amon made his decision.

[Accept]...

[Quest Accepted!] The interface closed and another one popped up.

He sighed.

The rewards...he needed them.

With the condition his body was in currently, he was going to die in the future months

anyway.

So in both ways, he was dying. Much better to choose the path where he actually had a chance.

And also because he wanted to see her again but that was something that he thought

emotionally not logically.

He sighed for the umpteenth time that day.

This day had just started out and it was already tiring for him.

Composing his thoughts, he dashed towards where the students were gathered.

***

Coming to where they were gathered, he saw them all listening to Athena who was standing

on a small platform.

It didn't take him long to find Alya.

She was standing with Elizabeth and the other people.

"I'm back." He said, walking toward them.

Their heads snapped toward him.

Ren raised a hand.

"Yo, bro! I heard you got a little sick from the teleportation."

Amon nodded.

"Are you good now?" He saw Charlotte ask.

"Yeah, I only needed to calm down for some minutes."

Charlotte and Elizabeth nodded after confirming he was okay.

"We are glad that you are ba-"

"But bro, weren't you fine in the FULL-" Ren interrupted Alya's sentence but was quickly shot

down by a punch on his face from Amon.

He lay on the ground, holding his cheek.

"What was that for!?" He asked, massaging his cheek.

Amon ignored him and nodded to Alya.

They all then got engrossed in Athena's lecture, completely forgetting Ren on the ground.

Fortunately, Charlotte quickly bent down to help him.

Amon's eye moved to the corner, finding Ren basking in the warm care of Charlotte.

"What a playboy." He mumbled silently as his mouth twitched.

It wasn't heard by any of them except Ren, who was lying just beside him.

Ren, hearing his words, looked at him and winked secretly.

Amon was baffled at his response.

He was about to look back when suddenly an earthen platform erupted from beneath him.

It was extremely small but was enough to throw off the balance of Amon.

He fell to the ground face flat.

All of them looked at him as he lay there flat in the snow.

Ren erupted in laughter and pushed Amon's head further into the snow,

"Hahahahaha, suck this dirt you rotten fucker." He cursed.

Amon clenched his fists and grabbed his head, burying it back in the snow.

He shoved it in hard.

Suddenly, he realized that everything had gone silent around him.

He stuttered, seeing a shadow behind him.

As he turned, he saw a monotonous Athena standing over them both with a vein throbbing on

her head.

Both of them stiffened.

Ren looked at her with a mocking laugh.

"Come on sis, no need to be mad. I'll get you a gum later."

Amon's jaw dropped as he quickly got away from Ren.

It was fortunate because, in the next moment, Athena grabbed Ren's hair and disappeared.

But everyone could see that she was mad.

And Ren...

Well, he was done for.

Every student broke out in laughter.

Even Amon couldn't help but laugh while sitting in the snow.

As he was about to stand up, his gaze passed through all the students who were currently

laughing beside him.

They were all grabbing their stomachs and chuckling or laughing.

However, his gaze suddenly stopped.

Far off into the distance, was a female student that stood still, staring at him.

She was wearing the academy uniform and completely separated from the others.

She was standing all alone. However, that wasn't the point.

She was staring directly at him through the small space between the bodies of the students.

And her face...

Had a smile.

A smile widened to the point that it gave Amon chills and creeps.

Every hair on his body stood on end as he stared at the horrifying smile.

The girl's body started to rot into a black mushy mess and her eyeballs popped out.

Her skin started to rot and fall off, revealing her grotesque black insides.

However, that smile never faded away.

It kept locked to him..

All of a sudden, his body started to shiver as everything withered away except the smile.

It was a harrowing smile...

Sorry, but only one chapter today.

College was extremely tiring and I was unable to find the time to write 2 chapters.

So I wrote an extremely long chapter.

I hope you guys understand and this satisfies you.

Thank you for reading this novel.
