Chapter 47: FULLDIVE [3]
****
"Are you Amon Ashford?" She asked.
Amon kept silent for a moment, thinking why she might have called him out.
But eventually, he nodded.
Suddenly, Alya was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say now that she had called him out.
But she quickly composed herself and bowed slightly.
"As a member of the Royal family, I heard how you ran to Prince Michael. I would like to express my gratitude towards you for this."
The people around her looked in shock at Alya and their eyes turned towards Amon, evaluating him.
The boy bowed back in turn,
"It's nothing to mention really. More than him being a prince, I did it because Michael is a dear friend of mine."
Alya nodded with a smile.
"Oh yes, you are close friends with Michael. You often hang around with him."
Amon nodded, but before Alya could say anything now, suddenly Charlotte bumped in.
"Excuse me, since you are Amon Ashford, you must be my teammate for the FULLDIVE correct?" she asked respectfully, something that was shocking considering the gap between their statuses.
He nodded again.
"Yes, I'm Amon Ashford, Rank 2403, also your teammate in FULLDIVE."
Charlotte's mouth contorted to an 'o' shape, but immediately Alya bumped in.
"Hey, what do you mean teammates?" She asked Charlotte casually, dismissing her formal tone from before.
In the novel as well, she was jolly and mostly casual with friends, hence the change of tone.
Charlotte coughed, reminding her that he was still there.
The latter realized and quickly composed herself.
"The FULLDIVE matchups, they were sent to our watches. You can check Princess Alya." She explained and Alya quickly checked her watch. For some reason, she didn't tell her the she already knew her teammates.
Amon observed her expression.
He saw a flicker of shock and happiness pass through her eyes. Most probably due to finding Michael on her team.
"Who are your teammates, Princess Alya?" Charlotte pretendingly asked and Alya looked at her with a normal smile.
"It's Prince Michael and another person from our class." She answered and the former beamed.
"Oh, that's great! You can fight us with your twin brother."
as well?" she asked.
His mind suddenly drifted towards the third teammate.
Klein Sinclaire.
He wasn't just a fodder character. Rather he was actually quite a formidable clovist.
He had his future plans for him as well.
But that said, those plans were for after the FULLDIVE, he didn't have enough time right now
to go after him.
"Ah, I apologize but I'm quite busy these 2 days, so finding his information might not be possible. But I'll try my best." He answered.
Not finding a problem with it, Charlotte nodded with a smile.
"Thank you, it's perfectly fine."
Bidding them farewell, he departed from them and quickly headed towards the HOU.
Alya and Charlotte stared at his departing figure.
As soon he disappeared from view, the former turned to the latter.
"Hey, is it just me but I felt a different kind of aura and vibe from him than the first time I saw
him?" she asked.
The blue-haired girl nodded.
"Yup, you are correct. I felt this as well. Additionally, his physical features were considerably
different as well. A little bit taller and more lean I guess." She explained and Alya nodded.
But then, she shrugged.
"Well anyways, he is a good person at least. Not like those other commoners. Other than that,
I don't find anything special about him."
Charlotte merely smiled and followed Alya, not replying to her comment.
'Amon Ashford, he's an intriguing guy.' She thought, saving himself in her memory.

Amon finally arrived at his destination. He was at the House of Olympus again.
But this time, for a different purpose.
And with that, he headed inside the shop.
