Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground

Even Zoey, who hadn\'t been paying attention to the drama before, turned her gaze toward Seraphin, completely irritated. Just as Seraphin was about to shout at Hamonic once again, he suddenly paused as he felt the gaze of everyone in the hall on him.

Even Atticus and Lila were looking at him!

And what\'s worse, they were all looking at him with dangerous glints in their eyes, as though they were begging him to speak!

But of all the gazes, it was the two massive figures of Aislan and Eldric beside him that he was most scared of!

One wore beast skin and had black large tattoos all over his body, and the other was tanned with metal looking muscles; each of them was twice his size!

Seraphin audibly cleared his throat and sat back down on his seat, \'They must be on their periods or something, sheesh,\' he thought.

Seeing Seraphin had no intention of speaking again, each of the students turned their gazes back toward Atticus and Lila, determined not to miss a thing.

Seraphin\'s booming voice had interrupted the exchange and diffused the tension somewhat, but Atticus had no intention of ending it here.

He inched closer to her, locking eyes with her. He lowered his voice as he spoke, "Listen, I might be wrong here, but on the slightest chance that I\'m right, my patience for bullshit is as real as a square circle."

Atticus\'s voice became colder as he continued, "I will not care why you did it. I will not care what gender you are. You\'re free to do whatever you want, but I promise you one thing: I will make you regret it."

Lila\'s form froze, unable to say anything.

Meeting Atticus\'s gaze was like having cold icy water poured on her body. She couldn\'t even speak or formulate any response as Atticus started walking away from her.

\'Just like back then…\' Lila clenched her fist and gritted her teeth. Back then, at the arcade incident, the same thing had happened when she met his gaze. It was a feeling she hated to her core.

Seraphin subtly whistled as Atticus passed in front of him; but he had made sure to lower the intensity. But even then, he still received a warning as both massive forms of Aislan and Eldric stared down at him.

Despite the fact that Atticus\'s voice was low, with many of the students not hearing what he said, each of the tier ones all heard him.

Apart from the fact that they were all in closer proximity, they were each in the Advanced rank, with one of them even being in Advanced+ rank. Hearing what Atticus had said was easy.

Of course, none of them had any intention of interfering in the matter. It wasn\'t their business.

Atticus walked to his seat and sat down without saying a word. He had already given his warning, and if she still chose not to listen, then what would happen would happen.

Just as he thought he would wait quietly for the teacher to arrive, "Hey,"

He suddenly heard a sound at his right hand side. Atticus turned to see Kael looking at him without any expression on his face, seemingly waiting for a response.

Atticus paused in surprise for a second before responding with a simple, "Hey,"

"You\'re strong," Kael said without any change in expression.

"Um, thanks?" Atticus was a little confused about what was going on, but he still decided to respond.

Kael nodded, suddenly taking his gaze away from Atticus.

\'Weirdo,\' just as Atticus thought the weird conversation had ended, Kael suddenly turned to face him again and asked, "Do you want to hang out after class?"

Once again, Atticus was utterly confused. They had both fought each other intensely just a month ago, and although Atticus wasn\'t expecting straight out hostility from him, he sure as hell wasn\'t expecting this to happen.

"Hang out?" Atticus asked, trying to confirm if he heard him right.

Kael nodded in response.

"Really?" Atticus asked again.

Kael nodded once more in response.

\'Am I actually making a friend?\' Atticus still found everything that was happening hard to believe.

But instead of thinking too much about it, Atticus simply decided to go with the flow. It wasn\'t like he would be taking any risks.

"Sure, but do you even know where to hang out?" Atticus asked.

This was the first time they were each in the academy\'s main campus, and neither of them knew anywhere. And Atticus could bet all his fortune that Kael was far from being a social person.

Kael\'s face finally showed a change in expression as he slightly frowned. He looked away to the side, putting a hand on his chin, seemingly entering a deep state of contemplation.

Atticus was almost tempted to laugh seeing this but he held it in.

Atticus decided to bail him out. "Let\'s just tour around the campus; I\'m sure we\'ll find something to do," Atticus suggested.

Kael came out of his contemplation, turning to face Atticus again, and responded with a simple, "Okay." Without waiting for a response, he turned his gaze away from Atticus and faced his front.

Atticus couldn\'t help but smile wryly. He kind of liked his character. It reminded him a lot about a certain aloof white haired girl. \'I wonder how she\'s doing,\'

Seeing as there were no more distractions, Atticus also faced forward, completely forgetting the red haired girl who was still standing with her hands clenched.

After a few seconds, Lila finally sat down on her seat, completely lost in her thoughts.

The whole class went silent after that, with only some silent chatters sounding from some of the students in the room.

And then, after waiting for a few minutes, the entrance door to the hall suddenly slid open, and a brown haired woman in a well fitted black suit strolled in with a smoothie in her hands.
