The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra

Chapter 209: Thick Of It [5]



****

"WHERE'S MY CROWN-"

Amon stood silently with closed eyes and walked over to Michael, switching off the microphone.

"Hey, what gives!?" Michael questioned but Amon silently pushed his shoulder with closed eyes, looking down.

"Get out bro. Quick."

"Huh?"

Amon gave him another slow push.

"Get out. Get out, please." Amon repeated.

"What's wrong? It wasn't bad..."

"Nah bro, please get out." Amon didn't look at him.

Michael looked to his other friends who also averted their eyes with expressions that made it seem like they had their soul sucked out of them.

Amon opened the door, walking out Michael.

"What's wrong with my favorite song?" Michael asked but Amon finally spoke up.

"Literally everything is wrong with that song! It makes every inch of my being physically cringe." He said with bloodshot eyes.

Michael looked violated.

"B-but-"

"What's going on?" Both of them heard a familiar voice from the side.

Turning to look, they saw Athena standing a meter away from them, a confused expression on her face.

"Oh, yo Athena." Amon raised a hand, reverting to his usual attitude.

Athena's mouth twitched.

"Don't do that in front of everyone idiot. It's fine since it's Michael."

Amon rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, sure."

Michael, just like Amon was pretty well known with Athena by now so he was no stranger to Amon's attitude towards her.

As for the manager before, he was under Athena so she didn't care about him.

"Anyways, I was passing by when I saw you yelling at him. Why is that?" Athena asked, brushing a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"Exactly, I was just singing and my song wasn't even-" Michael tried to retort but was interrupted by Amon.

"No! We even told you to keep that cringe song away from us last time. Stop trying to kill us." The latter yelled again.

Athena frowned slightly.

"Oh come on, it can't be that bad. What song was it even?"

Michael's eyes glimmered.

"Yes! The song went like this..."

"How bad can it b-"

"FROM THE SCREEN TO THE RING-"

Athena instantly turned silent while Amon fell dead on the ground, his body twitching.

"Never mind, get away from me Michael." She spoke straight up, clenching her fists and her closed eyes trembling.

"Not you as w-"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Quick, take it away from me!" She gestured to the room inside.

"Why do you guys hate it so much!? I'm being clowne-"

A portal opened beside Michael and a clean slap hit his cheeks, throwing him inside the portal. "That song.....keep that thing away from me." Athena trembled, heading forward.

Amon, who lay dead on the ground, finally came back to his senses and stood up, heading back inside.

***

Heading back inside, Amon found Michael fainted on the sofa, a bright red mark on his right cheek.

He saw everyone staring at him with widened eyes, but also a look of relief in their eyes. "What happened?" Charlotte asked.

"Uhh, technical issue. We should just continue until he wakes up." Amon excused and sat down.

"So, who's going next?" He asked, changing the topic.

Fortunately, Charlotte was quick to stand up.

"I'll go now." She said with a smile and everyone nodded.

Going to the front, she picked up the mic and quickly picked a song.

It was a song called '7 Rings'.

And as expected, from the moment she started singing, everyone was already lost in her voice.

It was incredibly soft and soothing, bringing them pleasure and relief from the previous...

Monstrosity.

Her voice perfectly matched the song. It was clear and beautiful.

To the point that even Ren, who didn't like these types of songs was lost in it.

Charlotte was truly good at singing like she was at everything else.

Finally, she finished.

"Okay, I'm done." She smiled, setting down the microphone.

Instantly, everyone started clapping.

"That was a great song," Amon said.

"Yeah, for real. You got insane talent." Ren remarked and Alya nodded as well.

"Okay, I'll go next then." Alya stood up, adjusting her clothes.

It was at the same moment, that Michael woke up.

"Huh? Where am I?" He looked around and memories finally settled back in.

"Oh..." Everyone stared at him.

It was obvious that he wanted to say something but chose to stay silent, having already been

clowned enough.

He focused his attention back on Alya, who was now picking a song.

As she was picking though, Ren stood up.

"We should spice this party up." He grinned.

Amon knew what he meant by that.

Elizabeth and Charlotte stared at him as he went to a nearby fridge and took out bottles of

beer.

"Is everyone a light drinker here?" He asked.

Everyone nodded except Amon.

Ren clicked his tongue.

"Sad that we'll have to go with a lighter drink." He settled back down on the couch.

Elizabeth and Charlotte stared at him with surprise.

Was he a heavy drinker then?

Didn't he just turn 18?

Seeming to not notice their gazes, Ren took some pints, pouring beer into them.

He handed them over to everyone.

"It's gonna be fun now." Ren grinned.

Elizabeth seemed to notice that Ren didn't offer Amon a glass.

"You don't drink?" She asked Amon.

At her question, even Charlotte and Alya turned to notice.

Amon shook his head without any hesitation, leaning back into his couch.

"Nope, I prefer water or tea. I hate drinking." He said without any emotion, trying to hide the memories replaying in his mind.

They noticed his silence and chose to not pry further, the same thing that Ren and Michael did

back then.

Amon tried to let go of the storm of emotions inside him and fortunately, Alya's singing was

just the key.

It was another song by the name of Espresso.

The energetic vibe of that song perfectly matched Alya, who also gave off an enthusiastic

energy.

That bright vibe was also enough to calm down Amon and cheer him back up.

Once she was done, she settled down back on the sofa after everyone complimented her.

Then, Elizabeth chose to go up on the stage.

And just like Charlotte, her voice was exquisitely melodic.

It was calm and peaceful to the ear as if her voice was a warm blanket that brought them

comfort.

Every female in their group had such a beautiful voice, and it was shown as the trio was completely enveloped in their singing.

Once she was done, she settled down on the couch like everyone else.

Amon and Ren looked at each other.

"Gwess..hiccup...I'll go first then." He said, his cheeks a little flushed.

He knew it was nothing for Ren but the guy had downed a whole bottle by himself.

"Don't fall on the ground, you drunkard," Amon said, helping him stand up.

"Yeah yeah."

He grabbed the mic and started to choose a song.

Unlike the girls though, Ren leaned more towards rapping. Hip-hop was his favorite genre

after all.

Till now, one thing that surprised Amon was the songs.

He had already seen it when he came here before with Michael and Ren but all of the songs

and genres were from his previous world.

'Lazy bum of an author.' He said.

Finally, Ren picked a song and without any delay, he started to rap it.

It was a song called 'HUMBLE.'

And listening to it... Everyone wasn't too surprised, despite how many curse words were in there.

What were they expecting? Twinkle Twinkle? It was Ren.

Aside from the song though, Ren was very talented in rapping. His fast voice was perfectly attuned to the deep piano riff of the beat.

Even the way he said the words was perfect, saying them at perfect timing.

"Sit down (Hol' up, bitch) be humble

(Hol' up, bitch) sit down.."

Yeah, he was definitely enjoying this as well.

Amon looked to the side and saw Charlotte downing her whole pint in one go.

"You good?" He asked.

She had bright flushed cheeks.

"Ah, yes..hiccup... It's refreshing..hiccup" Charlotte said.

She was highly drunk,

Amon frowned. Drinking was anything but refreshing.

As much as he would like to stop them, it was their own choice to do so.

He wasn't close enough with them yet to snatch it from their hands and stop them.

Even Elizabeth and Alya were drunk but the one that surprised him the most, even previously

was Michael.

He was very drunk.

It was surprising because, in the novel, Michael was never shown to have this habit. Or maybe

it was because scenes like these were never shown in the novel.

However, it felt unreal to see the protagonist of the story himself being drunk.

As for himself, Amon could never find himself drinking.

Never, in his whole life.

He swo-

His thoughts were interrupted when Alya swore out loud, fully drunk.

"Yeah, fuck them bitches!" She raised her pint.

But to his surprise, even Charlotte joined in.

"Yes!"

'All of these fuckers are drunk...' Amon noticed.

"Get the fuck off my dick, that ain't right

I make a play fucking up your whole life

I'm so fucking sick and tired of the Photoshop

Show me something natural like Afro on Richard Pryor

Show me something natural like ass with some stretchmarks" Ren said, looking at Alya.

"..."

It was all fucked up.
