The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 74: The Quest To Save Lily [16]



****

Amon's eyes snapped towards his shadow and instantly found it wriggling and molding.

They widened with shock and recognition at the phenomenon.

There was only one person in the human continent that was capable of doing this.

It was then that he realized the date of today.

He couldn't believe that he had forgotten it because of Lily's situation.

It made sense now why this was happening. He was supposed to arrive today after all.

Suddenly, his instincts flared up and his eyes sharply turned to his front, finding a storm of wind heading towards him.

'NOO!!' Amon screamed in his head as he saw the storm being conjured around Norman.

It would disrupt everyone's location and the whole floor would blow up.

Did this man not care about his guards or other people?

His mouth twitched.

There was no time to look at his shadow right now and wait for that person to manifest.

He had to focus on Lily right now.

His gaze moved towards the corner of the floor, finding Lily cuddled up at her spot, her face marred with tears streaming down her face constantly.

He couldn't even believe it at this point how she was able to hand it.

The problem here was how to rescue her.

His elements were an absolute no-go right now.

As for his skills, Zephyra informed him that skills by themselves used such an accurate amount of mana that no mana was leaked outside.

Therefore, the mana bombs would probably be not triggered.

However, the skills they were talking about right now were [Void] skills.

And it was an element that his body still wasn't accustomed to.

As a result, she told him that before his second [Void Training], there was still a mana leak that resulted from his skills.

Especially so when his mana control still wasn't above that of an average clovist.

And with that, there was literally no way of getting her out of this situation right now.

He had decided.

He didn't know what was that visualization, but it made him realize how he naive he actually

was.

After his self-reflection, he didn't want to be a hero anymore.

That personality wasn't suited to him. Michael could go ahead and be whatever hero he wants to be.

But not him anymore. Enough of the blind following and trying to be him,

Heroes were shitty. They weren't what people assumed them to be.

And after finding this out, he changed his plans.

He didn't care now.

Saving or not, these children couldn't be saved. No matter what.

So what if they required saving? Was it his job to rescue them when he barely knew them?

That was a hero's job, not his.

If this meant being selfish, then yes he would be selfish.

If being the cause of the death of all these children was required of him to save Lily, then so be it. He was prepared to face the trauma.

He only cared about Lily now and no one else.

What mattered was the safety and survival of his loved ones.

He was prepared to be cold and selfish if he had to for this to happen.

Moving back to the present, the wind storm was finally completed.

And without a moment, the man hurled it toward Amon.

Suppressing the last bits of hesitation left in him, he unleashed himself.

Multiple blobs of blood appeared behind him while he regulated lightning all around his body.

Shaping the blobs into multiple swords, he launched them while immediately using his skill.

'[Voidstep]'

He disappeared from his spot and appeared between the children.

The floor was large so 10 meters wasn't nearly enough to get him to Lily in just one

teleportation.

The wind blades headed towards him were met with the blood swords that quickly started to counter them.

As soon he landed between the children, it finally went off.

BEEP!

BEEP!

BEEP!

BEEP!

BEEP!

The sounds of the mana bombs being activated around the room.

Not bearing to look at the faces of the children around him, he suppressed his hesitation once

more and ignored the noises.

He used [Voidstep] once more.

However, this time he limited his teleportation to 8 meters rather than using the full range and instantly appearing next to Lily.

Appearing next to her would activate her mana bomb because of the mana being leaked

through the skill.

As he landed, he again heard the sounds of mana bombs being activated.

But he quickly ignored it and instantly let go of all his elements.

He deactivated every single thing that was making him use mana.

Following that, he bent his body and with force, leaped at full speed towards Lily.

Unfortunately, deactivating the usage of mana also made his blood swords lose shape, making the windstorm proceed towards him.

As he arrived near Lily, he quickly took her into his arms and shielded her with his body.

At that moment, nearly 95% of the children that were left in the orphanage, exploded.

B00000000000M

Blood and innards flew into the air, being burnt in seconds under the sheer heat of the storm

that raged on because of the explosion.

The fire clouds collided with the windstorm, both of them engulfing Amon.

His cloak started burning with an intense ferocity.

And within seconds of being assaulted by the flames and the wind blades, it turned into

abyssal ashes that faded into the wind.

His bare back was exposed now and even then, the storm had not yet subsided as the fire and blades impacted upon his back.

Pain shot up through his whole being, making him feel as if lava was being poured onto his

back.

The pale white back turned into a completely charred one, with blood seeping out of the

injuries.

The continuous assault of wind blades worsened the situation as multiple of them impacted upon his back, tearing it apart with multiple cuts.

Amon gritted his teeth with full force, holding back the tears that were trying to escape from

his eyes.

If it continued like this, his spinal cord would be shattered, leaving him crippled for eternity. [AMON STOP THIS!] Zephyra kept pleading in his head desperately multiple times.

But he couldn't. Not after he had arrived this far.

He could easily escape right now using any of his skills along with Lily. However, it would trigger the mana bomb and this was a step he wasn't willing to take.

He would not teleport away until it was the only thing he could do to save his life.

But he believed in his instincts. He believed that the attack would end before he could be completely shattered.

Until then, he would bear the torture.

The wind blades kept slashing at his charred back now, making a bloody mess behind him.

His body was completely covered in blood from behind now and a large messy puddle had

formed on the floor.

Yet, he endured.

Until finally, he felt it. He knew that the next couple of slashes would destroy him and he had

to run away.

[AMON RUN AWAY, PLEASE!] Zephyra begged inside his head.

And he had to. He refused to look at Lily's face right now at the thing that he was about to do.

'[Voidtele-'

Suddenly, his words were halted by a ticking sound that started resounding in the

atmosphere.

Like a clock ticking. Or more accurately, a clock being reversed.

And instantly, the windstorm, the fire, and everything behind Amon vanished.

At that moment, the only thing he could hear was a deep and majestic voice break out near

him.

"Ah, shit. I'm late because of constantly trying to find this location in the area. I guess things turned messy didn't they?"

He felt relief and easiness fill up his being at the voice.

At that moment, Amon instantly knew that they were safe. There was not a single person in

the world where they could be more safe right now.

"Welp, time to cleanse this place of weak beings."
