The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 199: Michael's Resolve (Special Chapter)



***

Michael barely countered the claws of a ghoul beast, flipping in the air before slashing it down with his sword.

He landed on the ground, sighing.

The crimson flames on his sword died down and he sat down.

His body was currently covered in scratches and cuts, blood trickling down from many parts.

[You push yourself too much man.] He heard a voice from the side.

Looking to the side, he saw a man with crimson hair-that was glowing around the edges and swaying in the air-crimson eyes, sitting on a large boulder, topless.

Solaran stared at him, with a contemplating gaze.

"I need to," Michael replied, clenching his fist.

As if in agreement with Solaran, Michael felt someone nudge his arm from the side.

Looking to the side, he saw a gigantic tiger resting on the ground, with its head on its palms and eyes closed.

It was almost a tiger, with its tail being like a lizard, long and thick.

Its mane was pitch black, cascading down its back with black armor covering its arms and shoulder.

It was Michael's familiar, Sithraxi.

"I understand Sithy but..."

The memory of the match replayed in Michael's mind.

It had started well.

They were both equal to each other in their elements.

No, Michael was winning till a certain point.

Just like in the previous FULLDIVE.

However, when his [Void] element came into a fight with his [Sun] element.

That was when things took a sharp turn.

There was no doubt in Michael's mind.

His [Void] element was a lot more refined and stronger than his [Sun] element.

And the advantage wasn't by default. It was the result of Amon's efforts.

That last strike...

That gigantic mass of pure destruction.

It would have killed Michael. He knew it. But he was saved at the last moment by the barrier.

The scene was still imprinted in Michael's mind. A scene of absolute defeat.

Despite using even the last ounce of mana coupled with his Elemental Integration, his attack had failed against Amon's.

It was just...

Erasure. His attack represented complete erasure and destruction. The true essence of Void.

To obliterate everything without any regard for what's in the path.

It was. Gorgeous.

[It's useless to compare yourself to 'him'.] Solaran shrugged, trying to ease his worries.

He didn't name him, probably because of Zephyra.

"I know but...I can't lose here." Michael stared ahead, at the overstretching cave.

'When had our strengths grown so far apart?' Michael wondered.

They had started off on the same level.

But somewhere down the line, the difference between their strengths had started to grow.

It grew and grew until...

Amon wasn't just a rival for Michael anymore.

He was like an idol now.

Someone he needed to catch up to. Someone whom he looked up to.

Building up his resolve once more, Michael released a sharp exhale before standing up.

He bore the pain and tightly clutched his sword, taking support from Sithraxi to stand.

The place where he was currently at, was a Dungeon.

However, unlike the normal dungeons, it was like a long hallway.

With 100 partitions, with each of them containing different types of monsters they got more stronger and numerous with each partition.

It was a feature of the system. One that he had only gotten recently after the match.

As soon as it appeared on his screen, he jumped into it to get stronger.

And minutes ago, he had finally cleared the 7th Partition.

He hadn't gone to watch the team battles or anything after that.

All he knew was that he needed to get out before the Battle Royale.

And from what he knew, today was the day for the finals and semi-finals of the Team Battles.

Which meant he still had one day.

'Just one more partition..' Michael gritted his teeth as he started to walk.

[You are going to kill yourself at this rate boy.] Solaran spoke seriously, a stark contrast to his joking demeanor.

Michael made a scoffing sound.

"Dying would be much better for me than staying in 'his' shadows forever."

His sword suddenly ignited in a scorching crimson flame again.

Ember flew around in the air at every minor movement of the sword, crackling in the air.

Pain shot up through his whole being as he felt his blood boiling as if it were set on fire.

Veins throbbed on his arm, threatening to burst any second as his eyes became bloodshot. His heart hammered against his chest as if it was going to burst out any second.

These were the side effects of using the Sun, just like Void.

It would burn away at his body.

His blood, heart, and everything.

He could scorch himself to death if he didn't control it properly.

'System' Michael said.

Immediately, an interface opened up in front of him.

Michael nodded, satisfied by the increases.

His [Vitality], [Endurance], and [Strength] had increased.

Which was to be expected considering how much he was using [Sun].

Despite how much it burned away at him, the more he endured it, the more it increased his

vitality and health as well.

Closing his window, Michael walked over to the runic gate that was the gateway to the next

partition.

Runic engravings ran over the whole gate, spreading out from a circular button in the center

of the gate.

Raising his hand, Michael pressed the button and instantly, the engravings lighted up in a

crimson light.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

A distorting, glitching sound emerged from the gate in the next moment as the gate opened,

revealing a large portal.

'Just one more..' Michael repeated to himself as he stepped through the gate.

'One more.'
