The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 44: The Next Electives [1]



(BONUS CHAPTER FOR 200 POWER STONES LAST WEEK!!)

*****

Exiting the portal, Amon quickly separated from the rescue team and headed toward the reception table.

There were numerous tears and blood marks on his cape which attracted some stares from the nearby people but not too many.

Coming back injured and bloody from a dungeon was a normal occurrence after all.

Arriving at the reception table, the same female receptionist looked up at him.

"Welcome, how many I help you?"

"I'd like to inform of the clearance of my dungeon." He answered and she nodded before starting to rummage through some files.

"Your codename and dungeon name sir?"

"James Corleone and [Scarlet Reverie]"

"Ah yes, you entered the dungeon 14 hours ago. I shall put cleared here and have your rewards been distributed?" she asked and he nodded.

"Great, you can return the dungeon ID card we gave you now sir." She informed and extended her hand.

Taking the card out from a pocket, Amon handed it to her.

"Thank you, Sir James Corleone. We hope that our services have satisfied you and that you may come here again." She bowed and he nodded without a word.

Turning, he left the building.

Amon arrived at the black market entrance again but was suddenly called out from the side. "SIR!"

He turned and saw a familiar face. It was the shopkeeper that he had bought the chocolates last time from.

"Hmm?" He questioned from behind the mask, his tone deep.

The shopkeeper halted for a second but quickly mustered up his courage and rubbed his hands.

"I just wanted to inform you that there are a variety of sweets today in my stall. If you would like to check some, please go ahead." He informed with a bright fake smile.

Amon tilted his head but then suddenly realized what the man meant.

He had probably thought that he loved sweet stuff because of how he had bought a normal box of chocolates but had yet given such a large amount of money for it.

The man probably thought that he craved sweet things.

Sighing internally, he was about to reject when the goddess inside his head suddenly reminded him of something.

[Wait, you should check it out and buy something. That little girl is probably starving out there waiting for you.]

Amon's eyes behind the mask widened. He had mistakenly forgotten about the little girl.

She was probably starving out there for 14 hours, waiting for him to come back.

Scolding himself internally for forgetting something like this, he turned back to the shopkeeper.

"Hmmm, alright, I'll check it out." He answered nonchalantly.

The shopkeeper nodded and quickly led him towards his stall, where in a corner, multiple kinds of sweets were displayed.

There were cotton candies, chocolates, premade macarons, and much more.

Taking his time to find the best ones, he took a couple of everything for 1000 Exlor.

The shopkeeper bid farewell to Amon and he left the market with the items in his inventory.

****

Amon quickly traversed through the streets with efficiency.

It was 4 am right now and extremely close to dawn.

He was certainly going to get loads of questions and an earful from his sister.

Arriving in his usual street, he once again saw the cute little girl sleeping in the corner, her head tilted and resting against the corner wall of the shop.

Walking to her, he crouched down and for some seconds smiled at the cute face she had when she was sleeping.

[By the way....] Zephyra butted in before he was going to wake her up.

'Yeah?' He asked.

[You are kind of retarded aren't you?]

'Huh?' He blurted out.

[For a girl that you have been feeding and caring for for 2 days, you never thought of asking her name did you?] She sighed tiredly

Amon went utterly silent at her question, realizing how stupid he was.

He had been caring for her and feeding her and yet had never even remembered to ask her

name.

Resisting the urge to facepalm himself, he coughed.

'I guess I am stupid in some cases.' He concluded.

Suddenly, the girl twitched at the sound of his cough and weakly opened her eyes.

At the sight of her favorite mask, they suddenly opened with a jolt, as if fully refreshed.

She jumped into her arms.

"Uncle!"

Taking hold of her, he suddenly felt a strange warmth creep up in his chest for the girl.

"Haha, did wait for uncle?" He asked her and she nodded with glee.

He quickly retrieved the sweets for her, not making her wait any longer in hunger.

As the numerous sweets landed in his lap, the girl's eyes glimmered with happiness.

But despite her hunger, she looked at him, not digging into the sweets. Amon looked at her with confusion but Zephyra quickly conveyed what the girl meant.

[She's asking if she can take them.]

His mouth contorted into an 'o' shape, taken aback by her control and manners.

But he quickly composed himself and nodded, making her dig into the sweets.

Rather than a chocolate like last time, she grabbed two cotton candies and handed them to

Amon.

He tore off their wrapper and handed them back to her but she quickly extended one back to

him.

"Uncle hungry too." She said, telling him that he was hungry as well.

Smiling at her consideration, he took it from her hands and lifted his mask.

The girl happily started to take small bites out of the candy, her smile widening at the sweet

taste.

'She really likes sweet foods...' He noticed, eating a bite of the candy.

After being done with one, the girl handed him two macarons.

But, he quickly remembered to ask her name.

"Your name?" He asked, pointing at her forehead and the girl's face contorted to an 'o' shape

at his question.

But then she giggled and waved her arms in the air.

"Lily!"

He smiled at her cheerfulness. It was a cute name.

Following that, the two sat together for an hour and ate several sweets.

Surprisingly, she was a big glutton for sweets as she happily kept eating each one while

constantly giggling in his arms.

It had not been long since he met the girl. Yet the cheerful spirit and happiness she exuded in

these dark streets made his heart warm and made him awe at her will.

In just a short time, the two had really become close friends.

Thanks for reading!

So, I'll ask a question for the day. What do you think about the girl and what do you think

Amon will do with her?

Remember that sharp stare he felt at his back? Do you think she is evil?

Find out more, in the next episode of DRAGON BALL- ahem.

Have a good day.
