Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 205

Chapter 205 Catching Up

Atticus ran at a fast speed towards the camp, making sure to avoid everyone from seeing him. Although he wouldn't admit it, he loved his handsome looks.

But right now, he was far away from handsome.

He got to the camp after a few seconds and headed straight to his room. He quickly entered the bathroom to have his bath.

After a full 20 minutes, Atticus stepped out of the bathroom feeling profoundly refreshed and clean.

"Ah, that felt good," he muttered to himself with a smile.

After wiping himself off with a towel, Atticus brought out a clean robe from his space storage and put it on.

Before he left the estate, Anastasia had made sure to pack lots of clothes and other necessities for him.

Just as he finished putting on the clothes, Atticus suddenly heard a DING sound followed by an AI robot sound,

[Aurora Ravenstein is at your door.]

"Open," Atticus instructed immediately and the door slid open to reveal Aurora who walked into the room with a tray of food in her hands.

She immediately spotted Atticus's refreshed figure. "Well, at least you look like a human being now," Aurora remarked with a slight chuckle.

Atticus responded with a sneer, "Even my ugly, worn-out look is way better than you'll ever be," Atticus quipped, his words making Aurora freeze in her tracks.

Atticus had always had a way of making witty comments that got under her skin. Never once had she won in their bantering before, and this was always because of a single reason, "Take that back, or you don't get any food."

Aurora's form started emitting steam as her hands got scalding hot. The tray struggled to withstand the temperature as it began melting;

Aurora was always quick to get triggered.

Atticus struggled hard to hold back his laughter, looking at Aurora's form emitting steam once again.

His gaze turned to his food; he knew if he didn't do anything, it was about to be burnt to ashes. "Okay, Okay, I was wrong; you're the prettiest lady in all of Eldoralth," Atticus relented, his hands raised as a sign of defeat.

Hearing this, Aurora calmed down a bit, her temperature returning to normal.

She released an audible, "Hmph," before setting down the tray on the table by the side and sitting down on the bed.

Atticus chuckled, seeing her still furious.

"Thank you for the food," Atticus expressed his gratitude and then sat down on the chair to start eating.

He couldn't help but notice Aurora stealing glances at him. It was obvious she wanted to ask something, but she was still pretending to be angry, so she didn't want to.

After a while, she couldn't hold it in anymore, finally breaking the silence, "Are you finally done?" Aurora asked, a hint of concern in her voice.

Atticus smiled warmly, hearing her question. Over the past three weeks, while Atticus had been engrossed in engraving runes inside his room, Aurora had consistently been the one bringing him food.

And due to that, she was always seeing him in his demotivated state.
