Extra Pages: The Author's Odyssey
Chapter 116: Who is he?

"Lucas?"

"Hm?"

As I was deeply thinking about what should eat as I strolled the baffed table, I sensed a gentle tapping on my back, prompting me to turn around.

To my surprise, a very beautiful woman in a black silk dress was standing before me.

Her alluringly athletic yet curvy figure was accentuated by a georgette ballroom gown that left her back bare. The gown seemed to do nothing to conceal her toned physique.

Her mesmerizing forest-green eyes sparkled adding an air of allure to her already captivating appearance.

"Evelyn?" I frowned as I saw her standing near me.

"What is it?"

"How about we eat together?" Evelyn said as she avoided my gaze, she had been acting weird since the results of the unit exam came out.

"Why?"

Evelyn sent cold glares at me as I asked her a simple question that's all.

"Hmm, okay. We should eat together." I said to her with a smile on my face.

"Tsk." she started to walk toward one of the free tables.

'this bitch.' A tick mark appears on my forehead. Did she think I was her slave or something?

"You are coming?" she said to me.

"Coming." maybe I am her slave after all. I thought as I started to walk behind her with fried chicken on my plate.

"So what do you want to say to me?" I asked her as soon as we sat at the table.

Evelyn gave me a long look after that she closed her eyes for a moment and she opened her eyes again after a few seconds and said,

"Nothing, let's just eat food."

What...What?

Why the hell was that suspense about? I thought she wanted to have some serious discussion so that's why she invited me to eat dinner with her.

It was clear that Evelyn wanted to speak with me about something. I suspected that she wanted to discuss our past.

I also wanted to know about my past as there are gaps in my memory, which means someone had blocked that memory.

Who could be? I don't think Lucas's parents would do something like this to their only son and successor of their guild.

...Is it that man?

I'm talking about the man I saw when I was unconscious after my match with Evelyn.

There was bluer on his face so I could not see what he looked like but my suspicion is that man is the one holding all the answers that I'm seeking.

Then there is Evelyn.

Aside from the fact she is the ex-girlfriend of Lucas, I know nothing about her.

She should not be in a novel at all. Like me, she is an extra but unlike me, she is a strong extra.

Her potential is [SS-] which is very high, only a few hundred people in the world could have this much higher potential.

But I'm not the same as before, with the help of Luminor Shard I have surpassed my potential limit.

I may not strong as her and a few Main characters but I know that in one month or two, I will be as strong as Aric.

"Evelyn, tell me something about your father."

Evelyn who was eating her lunch stopped and looked at me, there was a confused expression on her face.

"Why do you suddenly want to know about him, you already met him once before."

Her answer left me baffled, I didn't even know something like that happened before.

Wait! Evelyn telling me the truth that I can guarantee why? Because she doesn't have reason to lie to me.

Maybe when Lucas and Evelyn were dating, Lucas could have met her father.

And I don't even have a memory of that!

As for why I asked her about her father, well I thought that man with the blurry face I saw in my dream could be her father.

"Why are you suddenly asking about him?" Evelyn after a few seconds of silence.

"Oh! Well, I want to know how is doing that's all." I said to her as I made a quick excuse.

"He is doing fine," Evelyn said to me, I could feel an edge at the end of her sentence.

"I see." now the atmosphere around us becomes awkward.

"Where are the others from our class?" I asked her trying to somehow break this awkward silence.

I want to know where Adrian and the others when I came here I only saw students' faces that I didn't know.

"Most of them have already arrived," Evelyn answered, scanning the surroundings before returning his attention to me.

"Only Adrian, Emma, Isabella, and a few others have yet to show up," she added and went back to eat her food.

'Well, I should not hope for any better than this.' I thought as I scanned the hall with my eyes.

Many students were eating their food like us everything seemed to be normal but that is not true at all.

my eyes settled on one particular student, I should not say if he is a student or not.

Why? Because he was just standing other side of the hall, he put his hand in his pant pocket and looked at everyone with a bored expression on his face.

The name of the student is Sam Williams. Well, what he said to me this morning before we left for Silva City but the thing is I never saw him in any class at all.

He is very suspicious, I should keep my eye on him...

At that moment Sam turned his head toward me and locked his eyes with mine, soon a smirk came to his face and he waved one of his hands toward me.

Gulp

I took a big gulp, I don't when but my back was drenched with sweat within a few seconds.

"Lucas, why aren't you eating?" Evelyn brought my attention back to reality.

"I-'m eating." I fumbled at my words as I took a bite of fried Chicken.

After a few seconds I glanced at where Sam was standing but he was not there.

'Who is he?' I could not help but thought.
