The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 82: His Relief and Support [2]



***

Amon's cane tapped against the ground in the cold rain.

As he traversed through the streets of the City Centre, his mind traveled back to the conversation he had with Katherine.

***

"I think that there is no definite fix for this. From your dreams, they aren't particularly trying to hurt you right?" Katherine tried to confirm and looked down, matching his gaze.

Looking into her eyes, he recalled his dreams.

And it was true. In all those dreams, the children had never tried to hurt him.

They only grabbed him and touched him, but never hurt him.

But as soon as the first word, his name to be exact was spoken, he always woke up.

He nodded at her words, making her look back up again.

Her hand passed through his hair, each wave providing a soothing coolness to his head.

"From what you told me, it seems as if you were present during what happened to them, or at least you are influenced or tied to them somehow." She spoke, her voice trailing off at the end. For a few moments, silence ensued between the siblings.

The only sound was of Lily playing with her toys without a care in the world.

Then, she looked down back at him, matching her gaze.

At that moment, Amon saw an unexplainable amount of sadness and sorrow in her eyes.

It was hidden well but he could see it well.

"I think you should visit the place where you last saw them one more time, don't you think so?" She asked him a question.

Confusion welled up within him but he didn't show it.

He didn't know the meaning behind her question.

But nevertheless, if a visit to the place could help, he was willing to take it.

He nodded, making her smile slightly.

"Then off you go, the sooner the better." She ruffled his hair and he stood up.

Amon smiled apologetically.

"Yeah, I understand, thanks for helping me out sis. And once again, I'm sorry for making you worry about me for this long."

She looked at him for a second before pulling him into another hug.

"Remember, I'm your elder sister. You can always lean on me with your worries or burdens, after all that's what siblings are for."

He pulled back and her lips curled up into a slight smile one last time before he bid her farewell and headed out of the door.

Katherine watched her brother leave, a sorrowful smile on her face.

She walked to the window and saw his back fading away in the fog that now settled in the atmosphere outside.

Raindrops rattled against the glass window, leaving drops that trailed down slowly. "I wish...."

She looked at Lily, who was still immersed in her toys.

Then, she looked back through the window, finding Amon not there anymore.

Her fingertips touched the surface of the window, making it slowly freeze along with the droplets.

Before long the whole window was covered in a layer of frosts with detailed patterns.

She could no longer see through the window.

"I wish that someday you can tell me the truth brother..."

Her smile then morphed into a guilty expression.

"After all, you aren't alone brother..."

And she turned to leave, her last words trailing off in the atmosphere.

"I once did the same thing..."

Amon arrived on the rainy street where the Blackchain Enclave was located.

Or, at least, formerly located.

After he had woken up one month ago, he had asked Cryptic Glories about the information on Blackchain Enclave and what happened to them.

It was soon reported that a day prior, the guards and the head of the building were assassinated by the headmaster of the Eldergrove Academy, Arthur Milize.

The employees and customers were allowed to leave without any harm but were forbidden to ever come back to the building.

On the same day, a notice, or more precisely a warning had been issued by Arthur as well.

It stated that the Black Market was allowed to do anything they wanted, however some things still need some limits.

And one of them Arthur stated was attaching bombs to children.

They had abused his 2 year absence to bring such acts into the Black Market and now they paid for it dearly.

They were also warned that no student of the Eldergrove Academy should ever come face to face with death, otherwise, the whole Black Market would be blown away.

He further said that the Blackchain Enclave was just a warning.

Any other unbearable act found that was associated with the Black Market would instantly be

taken care of.

It was apparent that he had broken the contract that Arthur and they made years back.

But they also knew that he gained nothing from it. He simply made the contract with them because of his boredom and he wanted to add a dark side to the city.

He was free to break the contract as he pleased and no one could question him about it.

Moving back to the present, Amon now moved towards the building in the deserted and foggy

street.

Reaching the entrance, he headed in from the front door.

What greeted his eyes was such a gory sight that made his stomach churn.

The previously checkered floor was now layered with blood marks all around.

The bodies weren't there anymore and the blood had dried out but the amount of sprays that

he saw on the whole floor made him shiver.

They were killed by Arthur's shadows.

A certain part of the floor at the edge had been completely blown off, with rain falling into the

abyss it made.

[It's so silent that it feels eerie.] Zephyra remarked causing him to nod.

The whole building was completely ashen. As if no one had been here for ages.

He walked on the dry floor with his cane tapping against it.

There was complete silence except for the constant tapping of his cane and the rattle of rain

against the ceiling of the building.

Coming near the irregular-shaped hole, he looked up into the gray sky from where raindrops continuously kept falling.

His cape and equipment had been burnt in the fight so he was wearing some casual clothes

right now that were completely soaked.

The only things that survived the fight were his cane and mask.

Then he peered down into the abyss, finding the bottom two floors also blasted, with the hole

being larger on each floor.

It was a clear path to the bottom floor and so he jumped down.

As he landed on the concrete, he felt a strange sense of foreboding wash over him.

He was finally back.

The place where they all died.
