Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 333

Chapter 333 Fight You

As soon as the clock hit 10:30 AM, as per its usual occurrence, the terminal suddenly lit up in a golden glow.

Atticus wasted no time. As soon as the floor lit up, he gave Aurora and the other Ravenstein youths a quick nod and then dashed into the golden light, his form immediately disappearing.

Aurora, Lucas, and even the usually somber Nate all stared at each other, each of them wondering what was going on with Atticus.

"Maybe he really likes school?" Nate jokingly commented.

...

Atticus's eyes snapped open, his gaze landing on the familiar pristine white teleportation room. He didn't waste any time and started walking towards the exit.

As soon as the door slid open, Atticus's gaze instantly landed upon Zoey's sideways form. Unlike the last time they met, she was wearing a purple flowing gown that reached her legs, which perfectly complemented her purple hair and amethyst eyes.

Atticus didn't even know when his lips curled up into a warm smile.

"H-" Just as Atticus was about to offer his greetings, he didn't get a chance to, as Zoey rapidly walked past his door as though trying to avoid something.

Atticus was speechless. He released a huge sigh. 'This is what I was hoping wouldn't happen,' Atticus instinctively knew that there was a huge possibility that Zoey would start avoiding him after that incident.

'How should I handle this?' Before Atticus could continue this line of thought, a voice suddenly called his attention, "Hey."

Atticus turned to see Kael looking at him with his characteristic expressionless face.

"We're going to be late for class," Kael added after a second of silence.

Atticus released another deep sigh and shook his head. He would deal with it later.

Atticus nodded with a smile at Kael, and they both started making their way to class.

Because of the slight delay, the rest of the students had already gone further ahead, leaving only the duo left in the hallway.

They both walked, maintaining their usual silence until it was eventually broken by Kael, who suddenly spoke, "How was the date?"

Atticus had met Kael on Friday just after he had worn his clothes and was headed to the location he set for the date.

He had eventually decided to tell the boy how he asked Zoey out on a date and she agreed.

"It was..." Atticus seemed to think for a bit before he shook his head slightly. "It had been going really well, but something happened at the end, and now she's avoiding me."

Atticus had no idea what telling Kael all of this would do, but he just felt like sharing it with someone. And it just so happened that it was only Kael who knew his current situation.

Kael went silent for a bit with his gaze still pointed forward, and then he suddenly turned his gaze towards Atticus and spoke,

"You have to be more assertive, a little more forceful. But not too much," Kael advised.

Atticus expected Kael to continue speaking, but the boy simply turned his gaze back forward and kept walking, not uttering any other words.
