The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 178: Aftermath of the Battle [2]



***

Amon exited out of the building where Athena's office was located.

It was from where he always walked out whenever he would be at Arthur's place.

Athena would open a portal to her office after he was done and then he would leave.

Usually, there wouldn't be any problems but...

There were currently a lot of stares on him. From everyone and everywhere he went, they would stare at him as if they would eat him up at any second.

But it wasn't like he hadn't expected this.

No.

When going in to reveal his powers with Michael, he had been ready for such a thing.

A Penta-elemental mage wasn't something normal after all.

Nevertheless, it wasn't that big of a problem for him.

At least as long as they restricted themselves to staring only.

Ignoring all those gazes at him, he stepped out of the block before turning to walk toward his apartment.

Since he had been taken straight to Arthur's home after the match, it meant that he was unable to participate in the finals.

If his memory served him right, in the second semi-final, Elizabeth was supposed to emerge victorious.

But since Amon won but didn't report on time, it meant that he had forfeited and the 1st place for single battles went to Elizabeth.

Amon didn't care much about it though.

Because it wouldn't affect his goal to become the 1st ranked student in any way.

The way mid-term battles worked was that, with each win, the winner was awarded 2 points. Everyone started out with a base of 5 points.

If you forfeited from the battle or didn't fight at all, there would be no deduction in your points.

However, if you chose to fight and lost, then there would be a reduction of 3 points.

These same points would carry over to the team battles as well which was why Amon didn't worry much about it.

He hadn't lost after all.

[That's a peculiar way to cheer yourself after losing...] Vain said.

[True.] Zephyra joined in.

'Shut up you both, It's not like I backed out intentionally.'

It was true.

It was Athena and Arthur who held him for training, not him.

And after how much he tired himself out in that battle, he knew that winning against Elizabeth would be a very difficult gamble.

In any case, what was done was done.

Nothing he could do about it.

But there was another problem.

His friends...

He didn't know how they would react to his reveal of multiple elements.

The fact that he hid it from them for 2 whole months of their friendship might hurt them a little.

Or maybe not, he hoped.

There was also Katherine...

To her eyes, he was hiding this secret from her for 3 years.

Amon could understand that it must feel like shit for her.

Which was why he planned on straight up going back to the apartment.

As he walked through the streets, he felt the stares at his back again.

And since it was the students...

With the stares also came the gossips.

"That's Amon, the guy from the match!"

"Oh, now that you say it, yeah."

"How is that even possible? 5 elements, all belonging to a single clovist???"

"I know right, I find it hard to believe as well."

"But look, he did it right in front of our eyes, so there's nothing we can even accuse him of."

"Yeah and didn't you see that purple spatial energy, it was so fucking cool."

"True, was that the spatial element?"

And so on and so on among the boys.

Then there were the girls as well.

"That's Amon Ashford isn't it!?"

"Yeah! He was so cool in the match!"

"Even outside of the stadium though, he's handsome as fuck..."

"True."

Listening to all of them, Amon felt like dying at that moment.

Just what was so cool about him in the match.

Regardless, he ignored all of them and walked forward without sparing a glance.

As Amon reached back to his apartment, he stood in front of the door.

His hand on the door knob.

'This is it...'

The moment where he would twist the door, he would either be accepted or not

Taking a deep breath, Amon turned the knob knob, opening to get inside.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But as he stepped inside, he instantly felt a presence rush and collide with him.

His eyes widened as he looked at who it was.

Katherine.

WIth her long black hair cascading down her shoulders, she was currently in a tight embrace

with Amon.

"Uh...you good sis?"

Amon questioned.

But Katherine ignored him and looked at his body before asking.

"Did they hurt you anywhere?"

""

"Do something to you?" She questioned, eyeing him up and down worriedly again.

"You guys..."

Amon felt himself a little blessed to have a sister like her.

Even if Katherine did have questions about it,the fact that she was keeping them to herself..

Respectable.

As she let go of him, he was quickly led to a sofa, where she made him settle down.

And like he had expected...

It wasn't long before Katherine also asked up.

Amon could even detect the anticipation for his answer in her tone.

"Your elements...Why did you hide them from me?"

This was it.

Taking a deep breath, Amon shook his head.

"My elements had just awakened a few weeks ago sister. Not some years." He said.

And technically, it was true so there shouldn't be much complaints from readers.

But then, he knew that even with a week response, Katherine wasn;t done yet.

"But then, why didn't you tell me about it weeks ago?" she asked, squinting her eyes.

Fortunately, Amon was quick to come up with an answer.

"It was because I didn't want it come to light that I'm the weakest person in the academy yet

the brother of the strongest third year. It would affect your reputation."

He looked into her widened eyes.

"Especially if I had multiple affinities but was so weak I could use none."

He was exploiting Katherine's love and trust for him right now to get out of this situation.

Unfortunately, it couldn't be helped.
