The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 184: Winter Is Coming [3]



(Extra Chapter because of Magic Castle: 2/3)

***

The Blizzard had started to close in.

As Amon found himself staring at the storm of winter approaching, he suddenly heard two shouts in his ear.

[DUCK!]

[DUCK!]

Immediately, his danger senses went off at full alert as his eyes darted around for danger.

The world slowed down as he exerted [Void Eyes] to its maximum, finding a volley of arrows approaching his neck.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It was too late to dodge them now.

Suppressing a click of his tongue, Amon's neck immediately turned into an ethereal wisp of smoke, separating his head and body.

The arrows passed harmlessly through the smoke, embedding themselves in the trunk of the tree.

Stepping back from them, Amon deactivated his familiar art and his eyes immediately darted to the source.

And in the distance, he saw a large polybolos, hidden among the bushes.

Stepping down from the trees, Amon moved cautiously toward the polybolos.

'Thanks, you guys.' He thanked Vain and Zephyra.

[No problem.]

[No worries.]

As he reached the polybolos and took a step closer to it, suddenly the ground beneath his feet gave in, exploding in a cloud of smoke.

His vision blurred but he remained calm, immediately stepping back from the large hole that had formed in the ground.

And it was proved to be fortunate for him as in the next moment, a volley of spears shot into the sky.

'Fuck...' Amon cursed as he saw the chance of his location being exposed now.

Clearing the dirt from his eyes, Amon immediately focused on an aspect that Maxville didn't tell them about.

Traps.

There were various deadly traps laid throughout the whole terrain.

Amon didn't blame Maxville though.

They were preparing the cadets of the academy for the future where they would undoubtedly fight against the ghouls on the battlefield.

Multiple times, pieces of information wouldn't be given or might be fake.

It was normal on the battlefield.

And it was also normal to stay calm in those situations.

This was why the academy was doing this in these challenges right now.

A normal person would have lost their calm and given in to their fears if this happened to them.

Focusing on the polybolos, or a device that resembled the polybolos from his world, Amon quickly destroyed it through his blood threads.

'Fuck, they might be near.' Amon cursed, already expecting the team to know his location.

'I should get away quickly.' He bent on the ground, ready to launch himself and get away from the spot.

In the distance, he saw the Blizzard almost catch up to the first checkpoint of the challenge.

It meant that it would soon be 1 hour since the start of the challenge.

Pushing lightning to his feet, Amon launched once more from the ground on to the trees.

However, just as he leaped to another branch, his danger sense went off again.

This time he reacted before his familiars could even tell him.

Because it wasn't a trap this time.

It was a person.

And a person also knew they had to escape from other gazes of their target as well.

As Amon landed on the ground, snow shot up from the impact latching onto his blazer.

Looking ahead in the distance, his eyes met two sea blue ones, multiple water spears hovering around him with one in his hand.

"Klein huh."

Amon stood up.

And a smile spread across his features as his body suddenly spread into multiple clones.

'This is going to be fun.'

***

Klein stared ahead at Amon while panting hard.

As soon as he had seen the volley of spears into the sky, he had ran to the location at full

speed.

Which was why he was panting hard.

For a water clovist like him, the cold wasn't that much of a problem.

But it still hurt.

He rubbed his numb hands while trying to catch his breath and replenish his stamina.

'Fuck.' He cursed as he stared at Amon.

He had run at full speed to this location because he wanted to at least get one elimination this

time.

Last time, he was pathetic in the FULLDIVE which was why he wanted to perform better this

time.

He was stronger and much mature this time.

As a scholarship student, Klein had to ensure that his grades wouldn't fall low after all.

But...

Looking at Amon, he knew his chances of winning this fight were null as well.

He had hoped for it to be Adam, the only person whom he could maybe win against in the

team.

Even in the single battles, he had come pretty close to beating him.

'I did, right?'

But now...

No. No. No.

Not even in his worst nightmares did he want to fight Amon.

That fight with Michael had already put a fear of him in his mind. He couldn't even imagine

what Michael suffered at that time.

In the distance, Klein saw Amon smile. A hollow smile.

But looking into those dead black eyes that seemed like an abyss, Klein felt himself losing all

control of his body.

Klein couldn't remember it but he had felt the same feeling every time.

And as he remembered it...

All he felt was fear from the smile.

Fear from the person.

He wanted to get away.

Run.

His whole existence was like a reminder of fear to Klein even though they had never fought

against each other.

But...

The desire to perform well overpowered Klein's fear for him.

This was why, for the first time, he broke through Amon's spell and hurled his spears at Amon.

But just as they came close to touching him, they suddenly broke and dissipated into

nothingness.

'What the fuck!?'

Klein cursed but immediately, his insticts urged him to thrust his spear left.

And he did.

And it was fortunate that he did, as his spear barely knocked off Amon's nodachi from

slashing his neck.

Klein instantly shot back to create some distance while shooting multiple water bullets at Amon and simultaneously raising a tidal wave of water to obstruct his vision.

But he knew that would do nothing to Amon.

Using a new application of water magic that he had recently acquired, Klein summoned a cloak of mist around him, making his presence blend into the surroundings. Mist magic was one of the sub-types of water magic that he had recently acquired.

It was very capable of stealth which was why Klein was using it to escape currently.

He knew that the orders from Nadia were to hold any enemy off but there was a better chance

of winning from escaping than battling.

Klein knew that for sure. Unfortunately, he wouldn't be so lucky as suddenly his arm bent, disrupting his mana flow.

His mist cloak wore off and he was thrown to the ground, his face smashing dragging across

the floor before it was picked up by a rough hand.

And as Klein opened his eyes, he saw Amon's face straight up close to him, smiling

schemingly.

"As long as you have even an ounce, no, even a drop of blood in your body. You can never

escape from me."

And looking into those hollow black eyes, Klein only felt fear course through his body.

At that moment, Klein had acquired PTSD from Amon.

But that was just the start of how much he would be traumatized by the man before him. Even PTSD would be the worst way to describe his fears.
