Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201 3 Hours

During the past five years, Atticus had both increased the number of runes he could engrave before needing to drink the will renewal potion, and the variations of runes he could engrave.

He wasn't just able to engrave the shield and fireball runes anymore; he could now engrave myriad of different runes.

As soon as Atticus dropped the finished slate by the side, he quickly picked up another unused slate, focusing on his intent, he swiftly engraved the word "illuminate" on the slate, which does exactly as it sounds, illuminating the surroundings.

Dropping the slate by the side and repeating this process once again, Atticus, focusing on his intent, engraved the word "Dash" on the slate, which, when used, increases the speed of its user for a few seconds.

Atticus repeated his process once again, engraving the word "silence" on the slate, which creates a zone where the sound is dampened and muted.

Atticus continued the process of engraving different types of runes and putting them down on one side. His will had grown incomparable to before.

Back then, he had needed to strain his will just to create a single rune, and that was only possible because of his high intelligence. With how low his will was, Atticus should have never been able to engrave a single rune.

But now that his will had grown tenfold, Atticus could engrave about 14 runes before needing to take the renewal potion.

If one were to look at the stats as a consumable, before, it had taken him about 3 will points to create a single rune, but now, coupled with his increase in intelligence, Atticus had shrunk that down to 2, making him able to create more than he should be able to.

Atticus persisted, ceaselessly crafting various runes.

But after completing the 14th, an immediate fatigue settled in.

'No matter how many times I feel this, I can never get used to it,' despite the familiarity of this horrible sensation, he grappled with the exhaustion, resisting the urge to succumb to his inviting bed.

'Wow, I never knew the bed was soft and fluffy. Even the pillow looks so nice,' Atticus couldn't help but entertain the allure of his soft, fluffy bed.

Each touch seemed to accentuate its comfort, and even the pillow appeared irresistibly inviting as he ran his hands over it.

But almost immediately, Atticus shook his head vigorously, snapping himself out of the terrible feeling.

He swiftly brought out the renewal potion and immediately drank it.

Atticus took in deep calming breaths as he began regaining himself gradually.

'A very dangerous feeling,' Atticus thought, taking another deep breath.

He truly didn't like the feeling of losing all his motivation suddenly. But unfortunately for Atticus, this was also part of the training process.

Anytime he loses his motivation, it took him a great amount of effort not to give up on everything instantly.

And although it took just a few seconds before he drank the potion, those few seconds still needed a lot of effort before he could pull it off.

Plus the fact that even after he drank the potion, it unfortunately didn't instantly restore his will; he still had to meditate for a few hours before it was back to full strength.
