The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 177: Aftermath of the Battle [1]

Arthur nodded.

"He's fine but..."

Arthur thrust his cane at Amon, throwing him back a few steps as it hit his shoulder.

"You need to be careful with that power brat."

His face was grave right now.

Looking at it, Amon wondered if anything had gone wrong.

"Why? Did something bad happen?"

Arthur shook his head.

"No, but it would have if not for my barrier and that boy's element."

"What do you mean?"

"That boy was fine without any injuries cause of his element and that energy blast. But..."

"If that move of yours hit anyone else directly, they would be evaporated into bits," Arthur said, looking directly into Amon's eyes.

He emphasized the latter part as if to make Amon understand the implications of this strong power.

From the side, Athena nodded as well.

"I know how tempting that power seems, but you must understand the consequences and responsibilities that come with it, Amon,"

She said, standing up from the sofa and walking to him.

Amon remained silent as she put a hand on his shoulder, looking into his eyes.

"The power to destroy and erase everything from existence... That's [Space], that's [Void]."

"But to lose yourself in the greed of these powers is the worst thing you can do in the world. Because at a certain point..."

"Your mind and heart will become hollow. That's the danger we reality manipulation users live with."

Amon remained silent, taking in the weight of their words.

"And trust me, it's better to heed to them right now. Because when it's too late, you will remember this conversation and realize how foolish you were."

Averting his eyes silently from the depth of Athena's, he nodded looking down.

He understood what they were trying to say.

And they were not wrong.

With each [Void Training].

With each [The Void inside you grows larger...] notification.

Amon felt something change inside him.

Something deep but not accurately noticeable.

And now listening to their words, he wondered if it was indifferentness.

To be stoic of whatever destruction his power would cause.

Amon clicked his tongue silently.

That was disgusting.

Despite how used he was to slaughter and killing, mindlessly massacring people wasn't on his agenda.

It made him sick to the core.

He wasn't a villain. At most, he was an anti-hero.

But then, he felt two hands ruffle his hair strongly.

Looking up, his eyes widened a little as he saw Athena and Arthur smiling at him.

"What you being down about? It's just a reminder chap. We trust you to not fall down on this path anyway."

Athena nodded with a smile as well, something rare for her to do let alone ruffling his hair. "Arthur is right, we told you that just to make you understand the responsibilities of the power you have. At the end of the day, how they are used still depends upon the person in hold of them."

Taking a gum out of her pocket, she slid it into his hand.

"And we know you aren't the type of person to fall on that path. So cheer up." She patted his head before returning to the sofa along with Arthur.

Looking at the gum in his hand, Amon felt warmth rising in his chest.

It was something foreign to him.

Something familiar to the kind of warmth he received from Katherine but still different.

The warmth of a family, he realized.

They were not related to him, yet how those 2 talked to him made him feel a warmth that he hadn't felt in a long time.

A warmth he seemed to have forgotten since the accident in his previous life.

Amon's lips curled up into a small smile and he nodded, putting the gum in his mouth.

"I understand."

He looked up.

"Thanks, y'all."

"Fuck is this for?" Amon dodged several stone pellets that rained down on him from different

sides.

He was fully soaked in sweat currently, his clothes sticking to his body, highlighting his muscles.

Clicking his tongue, Amon barely dodged a stone that scratched his cheek.

He glared at the person who was responsible for all of this, currently sitting on his cane and watching him through his monocle.

"What do you think it's for? It's for your upcoming team battles kiddo."

The shadow monsters that were lined beside him continued to throw stones that Amon barely

dodged.

"Fuck you." He cursed.

Arthur laughed.

"Womp womp lil bro, you thought I was all cuddles and hugs? Think again."

Suddenly, the incoming stone in front of Amon vanished.

And then, he suddenly felt a sharp pain assault his knee almost making him momentarily

buckle.

Gritting his teeth, he glared at the side, where Athena was standing along with Amelia.

She would occasionally warp the stones at random moments, making it even harder for Amon. "Your reaction time is getting better but it's still slow. Learn to feel the spatial fluctuations around you better, you still lack in that aspect." She reprimanded him.

Amon felt like crying at the intensive training right now.

He didn't even get a day of rest after those single battles... 'Fuck...' He focused on himself, trying to feel the spatial fluctuations.

And then, his eyes opened wide as a stone suddenly disappeared.

Without even moving his gaze, he moved his torso slightly to the left, where the stone went

pass harmlessly.

'Let's go!' He exclaimed in joy.

Unfortunately, the joy wouldn't last long as a sharp object hit his forehead, nocking his headn/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

back.

'I hate this shit.' He cursed.

[Hahahahahahhahaha]

[Hahahahahahhahahaaha]

Zephyra and Vain laughed continuously at him inside his mind.

There were so many monsters and Athena....

It was unfair.

Why did he even end up here after the match?

Dodging another barrage of large stones, Amon panted hard, looking to the side where

Amelia was looking at him with pity.

He saw a ray of hope for himself as he stared into her eyes.

'I knew someone would at least sympathize with me.'

He tried to gesture to her to ask Arthur to let him go now.

Understanding what he meant from his eyes, she nodded, moving toward Arthur.

But just as she opened her mouth, Athena interrupted her, whispering silently.

Enough for Amon to hear.

"No, Amy. Don't do it. I'll buy you a pack of chocolates and lollipops later if you don't." She

tried to bribe him.

Even Athena knew that if Arthur's lovely daughter, Amelia asked him, he might stop.

Amon stared at Athena helplessly.

That neck of hers...

It looked snappable.

'Fuck..'

Even he knew that how much Amelia loved those things.

He looked into her eyes pleadingly as a last attempt to escape the hellish torture.

He knew it wouldn't work considering the look in her eyes.

Amon sig-

His eyes widened as he saw Amelia continuously hesitate but then take a deep breath and

move toward Arthur.

"Father."

Arthur stopped and looked at her with a warm smile.

"Yes dear?"

"I think Amon has had enough for the day. He's already been in too many battles. We should

let the poor soul rest no?" She smiled the cutest way at him possible. Arthur looked at her for a second before alternating his gaze between Amelia and Amon.

But eventually, he nodded, making Amon smile in relief as he slumped on the ground with

exhaustion.

Finally.

'I'm free...' He closed his eyes, taking deep breaths.

'Thanks, Amelia,' He thanked her in his mind. Now he wouldn't have to suffer anymore.
