Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 244

Chapter 244 Disappointment

"How do you like my present?"

Emeric's voice echoed through the camp as he addressed Atticus with a smile.

His hands rose dramatically, fingers splayed, as if presenting an invisible treasure to Atticus.

Eager anticipation painted Emeric's features with a wide smile, but it soon wavered after a few seconds had passed and he received no response.

Just complete and utter silence.

Focusing on Atticus once more, his face morphed into a frown as he saw that he wasn't even looking at him.

Instead, his gaze was focused on the group of youths he was currently controlling.

'Why is it so quiet?' Emeric wondered.

The area was eerily quiet. It was very odd, considering there were more than a thousand members of his division currently standing behind him.

It was as though none of them dared to make a sound in fear of standing out.

'They're scared of… him?'

Emeric was confused.

There were many youths amongst the army of students behind him that were more powerful than him, although it was very embarrassing, it was the truth.

But even they were completely silent as though they were being suppressed.

Why was he the only one not feeling anything?

Emeric's eyes narrowed slightly, his guard raised as his eyes focused on Atticus, instantly landing on his face.

'Lucky bastard,' Emeric couldn't help but comment inwardly.

In the history of the Psyquillian family, in every generation they had always birthed individuals that many in the human domain would consider unattractive and, in a more harsh word, ugly.

And truly they were.

But despite the fact that the Psyquillian family were more than a century old family, none of them had ever gotten used to this trait.

In fact, it was because of this that they were all very conscious of their appearance.

Almost all of them, Emeric included, wore extravagant clothes and accessories that make them pop and look good.

Trying to drown out their unattractive appearances with these extravagant things.

Many of their women buried their faces every day in a mountain of makeup that could probably last a normal woman for a decade.

Although this was all far from fixing the issue, it did manage to alleviate some of their embarrassment.

And this was why Emeric was currently dressed in an extravagant bright yellow suit, which was adorned with a plethora of accessories.
