Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 273

Chapter 273 Back

273 Back

Atticus experienced the same surreal feeling he usually does anytime he teleports, and after a few seconds, he opened his eyes and was instantly met with the familiar scene of the camp grounds.

The towering barracks building, the abnormally wide mess hall, and the large open space were still there, exactly where he had left them.

"You're late,"

Atticus didn't have to turn to recognize the voice of the person who just spoke.

He turned his gaze over to the right to see Aurora's figure with her hands folded on her chest.

"Sounds like someone missed me a lot," Atticus's lips curled up in a smile as he teased.

Aurora instantly released a derisive snort upon hearing Atticus's words,

"Ew, you wish!" She swiftly retorted.

"Pfft," Atticus broke into laughter as he started walking away from the obsidian floor towards Aurora, who was already looking as though she was about to erupt.

"Why did you come late?" Aurora asked in a low tone as he got to her.

Atticus smiled warmly.

"I met Ember," he responded.

Aurora simply responded with "Oh," sound, already understanding what happened.

"I also made a new friend, well kinda," Atticus added.

Aurora's eyes widened,

"You? Pffft! That's impossible! " Aurora broke down into laughter upon hearing Atticus's words.

Atticus made a friend? That was completely impossible.

The person in question had spent years, with months being spent at the camp where a tsunami of his age mates was there, and yet, he hadn't made a single friend.

Well, apart from her, but her case was special.

Atticus couldn't say he considered Lucas and Nate his friends. Sure, they were close somewhat, but there was still some kind of a barrier between them that he couldn't explain.

And he knew well enough that he was the cause of said barrier.

So it wasn't shocking to see Aurora bursting into laughter upon hearing what she had just heard. It was just so unbelievable.

Atticus's mouth twitched. Why was she making it seem as though he was that hopeless?

Sure, he had hardly made any friends, but that was simply because he saw it as unnecessary.

He spent most of his time training, when will he have time to hang out with them if he started making friends anyhow?

In fact, Atticus had overplayed it a bit when he said he made a friend. He had only conversed with Kael for a few minutes in which the boy hardly even talked.

He had just wanted to see how Aurora would react when he said he made a new friend.

The camp grounds was still devoid of the other students as the other division members still hadn't returned yet from their assigned classes. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}
