The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 95: Lessons and Trip [2]



***

Amon headed out his door.

It was cloudy today.

Chances were that there was going to be rain.

'That's surprising.'

He remembered that when he had woken up, it was sunny outside.

He shrugged.

Not like he was complaining.

Amon started to walk towards his school.

On the way, he completely ignored the purple goddess by his side who kept wandering off and there.

She was observing the flowers and the scenery.

"Didn't you ever see these types of things before?" He asked.

"Not from up close before meeting you, no. My expanse was completely empty." She answered.

"Oh."

Suddenly, he took notice of some people staring at him weirdly.

He stared at them stoically, unable to express what he was feeling at the moment.

They were probably thinking he was insane for talking to flowers.

After staring silently at him for a few seconds, they started to walk again.

This time, keeping their distance from him.

He looked at Zephyra who was laughing with her hand on her mouth. "Pfft."

"You can still talk telepathically to me, you know." She laughed.

Amon gazed incredulously.

'You could have told me before.'

[You never asked.] She shrugged and started staring at the flowers again.

'I swear, this grape goddess...'

Amon was seated beside Michael and Ren.

He was currently listening to Athena who was explaining magical theories.

Zephyra was seated on a magical chair she created for herself to his right.

It was surprising that she could do these things and nobody could see her.

She was literally seated in the middle of the stairs.

Looking back at Athena, he focused on the lecture.

Magical theories weren't something uncommon in this world.

Just like in his previous world, there were also magical scientists and engineers here who proposed different theories.

These were people, who despite being a talented clovist or armenist, chose not to risk their lives.

They didn't want to join the Guilds that were headed by the 4 Dukedoms.

Nor did they want to join the Imperial Army, which was further broken down into the Armenist Forces and the Clovist Tower.

They wanted to rest safe and dedicate their talent to something else.

Just like it had been previously stated, the world of Exloria wasn't completely medieval.

Despite it carrying such a theme, there were still modern touches here and there.

Things like the watch Amon wore right now or the mana transformers he had seen in Blackchain Enclave were proof of that.

They were all devices that were first represented as theories.

This was just the starting.

There were still many theories and modern devices to come in the novel.

He could actually steal them and publish them in his name, making money for himself.

Heck, there were even some things that he could make by himself and earn money.

As a person who rotted away in a bookstore, he knew his fair share of stuff and how to make it.

The only problem was...

He didn't have the time nor mind to devote it to such stuff.

He wasn't even short on money right now so he didn't see the purpose in doing so as well.

Just the HOU had given him so much money, not to mention the money that came later from Cryptic Glories.

He had 126M Exlor on his watch right now.

If not for the fact that these watches were completely anonymous to value the cadet's safety, it would surely earn him some suspicious glances.

Lost in his own thoughts, he was jolted when Athena slammed her book lightly on the table.

It was only a light tap but her manipulation of space made it seem like a large boom had resounded in the class.

He looked at her.

"After today's lesson about magic theories, I have important news to tell you all."

Amon racked his brain trying to think what the news was about.

If he remembered correctly, the first main arc's climax would be in a week and a half.

After that, it was...

Ah.

Yes.

His brain clicked.

It was...

"A trip to a mana research institute. You will learn about various mana theories and how they are implemented along with how they came to be."

Yes. A trip to Acroxia Mana Research Institute located in the small city of Axcrotia.

The city by itself wasn't very large and it was located at the edge of Eldoria Kingdom, which was the kingdom they were residing in.

"It's going to be a good work experience for you cadets who will later choose to take different paths after graduating from the academy. We don't just value our fighting forces. It's about

our workforce as well."

All of the students nodded.

"Different missions and assignments will be given to you people over there. Especially so for the people who have already decided to enter the fighting force. We won't burden you with

work assignments." She explained.

It made sense.

It was a good experience for those who were entering the workforce but cadets from the noble families, who were already set on being the flag of their families had no use of it.

They were better to be given real-life fighting experience.

And this trip was perfect, a smile pulled on Amon's lips.

"The trip will take place 3 weeks from now. It's a rather cold place so be sure to prepare well,

for the missions as well. We will put you in teams of two for the trip."

Amon nodded. It was alright.

Due to the city being at the edge of the kingdom, the land there was a little backward and

neglected.

There were also some issues with the nearby kingdom due to which there weren't many

normal citizens there.

Anything could happen at any moment.

The only reason why some of the best mana institutes were there was because of the mana

density in that place.

It was abnormally high. This was one of the reasons for the tension between the two kingdoms. Nevertheless, despite the lack of attention and backwardness of the land, the kingdom still

made sure to provide the best facilities and security to the research institutes.

But the second arc would change all that...

How would his coming into this world affect this arc, Amon thought in his head.

His stoic expression remained still until Athena delivered the news and left the room.

Ren also left after bidding them farewell before Michael started leaving in a few minutes as

well.

As he stood up, Amon noticed him sneakily clicking the air as if to not let anyone notice his

weird actions.

He was accessing his system.

Ignoring it, Amon started to pack his stuff as well. The class was almost deserted now.

But then, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't checked his training rewards yet. And in the quiet classroom, he quickly opened his system interface.
