The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra



***

Amon felt every tissue in his body press tight as he plunged into the river.

It was as if everything in his body had been knocked out of him.

As if he was standing in the center of a vacuum.

That's just how dense the mana was.

It felt like a hydraulic compressor squeezing his mana veins tight, threatening to bust them with overload at any moment.

Pain engulfed his whole body as he felt his consciousness blur.

The strong compression was too much for his brain to handle.

He felt his heart thump against his chest as if it was burning. Amon's eyes became bloodshot.

He was drowning in the sea of his own consciousness.

Slowly fading away, part by part.

'What...'

The light at the surface started growing further as his vision narrowed.

He kept drowning deeper and deeper.

'What am I doing here?' He asked himself.

He didn't know.

He didn't remember.

'What is this peaceful place?' He looked at his palms through his narrowed eyes.

They felt so heavy.

Amon wanted to sleep.

Badly.

'This place....'

'It's so quiet.' The light went further and further, throwing him into a deeper corner of darkness.

Amon's eyelids drooped as he felt his eyes grow even more heavier.

He didn't remember anything.

'And...'

Except for the fact that....

'It's so comfortable here.'

Amon closed his eyes and let himself go, wanting to finally sleep.

'I just want to rest after this long...'

He was tired.

Tired of it all.

Amon's speed accelerated as darkness started to engulf him and the light turned into a bleak dot far away.

He just wanted to...

Let it all g-

'AMON!' He heard a voice.

A voice from far away.

It only echoed numbly inside his ear because of the sea.

For some reason, it felt a little familiar.

But...

'Just let me sle-'

'Wake up! Don't lose yourself!' A shout came again.

Amon's eyes opened a little, finding the tiny speck of light far away.

'Wha-'

'You are going to die! Wake up!'

Louder this time.

And more familiar.

More...

'Who-'

'THIS IS ME! REMEMBER ME? DON'T LOSE YOUR IDENTITY.' More louder.

Closer.

And more familiar.

More...

'Familiar'.

'Vani-' Amon struggled to remember the name.

'HARDER, REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE AMON!'

Amon rocked his head inside the deep sea to remember who he was.

He could remember some faint memories.

A black-haired girl.

Older than him and she resembled him.

A little girl. Short black hair and eyes.

One with the brightest smile in the world.

A white-haired girl.

About his age. Quite familiar.

But who was the one calling him?

A faint image came into his mind.

A man.

Older than him with handsome features.

Black hair and eyes.

A smile on his face.

At the same time, a snake.

Someone familiar to him.

Someone...

Amon's eyes opened.

Not far away.

But within him.

Someone known as Vainglory.

His familiar.

Amon finally remembered who he was.

He was Amon Ashford. The Herald of Nothingness.

The Herald of Zephyra.

As memories flushed back to Amon, he fought to maintain himself in the rushing sea now.

This pond...

It wasn't water.

It was mana. Condensed mana.

To such a point that it felt like a liquid.

It was consuming every part of his being.

Amon called upon all of his [Void] powers.

What he was doing was essentially the same thing he did with Daniel.

But this time...

He would do it slowly.

Not a sudden rush of energy like the pill.

He spread [Void] inside his whole body, making it eat away at every inch of mana around him.

He strengthened his body with [Crystal], making it hold out as much as possible.

Amon instantly felt the sudden tightness in him decrease.

But it still wasn't enough as the mana kept rushing on and on inside his body.

The speed of [Void] was still lesser than the speed of mana.

But suddenly.

A notification flashed in Amon's vision.

[Your [Void] element has just leveled up!]

His eyes widened before it clicked in his mind.

He had expected such a possibility before but never thought it was true.

The Void...

It was eating away at the mana and strengthening itself.

As soon as the element leveled up, Amon felt both speeds equalize again.

Considering both were equal right now, he was sure that nobody would be able to sense his

element outside.

Now...

For the main process.

Amon concentrated on the mana around him before the [Void] ate it whole.

He started to pull it inside him, concentrating on a single position.

All of a sudden.

An idea flashed inside his mind as he was picking up a location.

It was worth a shot. Immediately, he started to concentrate and accumulate the [Void] element and mana in his

chest.

Right in the center.

Pushing himself to limits, he tried to swirl it around.

Amon gritted his teeth as he bit his tongue to keep himself focused.

Just...

Just a little more.

All of a sudden, it moved.

It started to circulate on the location.

Amon felt like shouting in joy but controlled himself and then started the next step.

He used [Void] at full capacity, making it eat away while he swirled the mana at that spot.

Slowly but surely, the ratio of [Void] mana inside his body started to increase.

He felt it.

It was happening.

The swirling of the mana turned into a whirlpool as Amon pulled more mana in.

More.

And more.

The whole sea of mana started to drain as it surged towards Amon.

Amon felt the crystal encasing inside his body start to break under the pressure of Void and

mana but he pushed himself more.

He couldn't let it go now.

He was too far in to debate giving up.

His mana heart would burst if he chose to let go now.

He pushed everything at max capacity as he drained out the last bits of his mana.

Amon's vision started to blur as the mana and the [Void] started to condense into a single

spot.

They started to compress now.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Into a single ball that went inside his heart.

And in the next moment.

It burst inside Amon's body.

But contrary to what was supposed to happen, Amon saw two notifications in front of him.

[Your [Void] element has leveled up!]

He smiled.

But the second one made him want to pour out tears of joy.

[Your familiar [Zephyra] has woken up.]

And instantly, a large body collided with Amon from underneath.
