Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 654

654 Torrent

The shock that engulfed Alvis's entire body was incredibly palpable. The figure in front of him was definitely radiating the aura of a master-rank. But what the hell was this power?

'A grandmaster-?'

Alvis's gaze became so cold that the temperature around him dropped. Regardless, he was in the grandmaster+ rank. He couldn't imagine a scenario where this attack could hurt him.

A black aura engulfed his arm as he reached out towards the azure-turned-crimson crescent slash.

To Alvis, this was one of the greatest mistakes he had ever made in his life.

The sound of flesh being sliced resounded across the area, followed by a spray of blood through the air.

The number of battles Alvis had been in throughout his life was so staggering that he had long since lost count. Many had been so intense that he had almost lost his life.

Reaching the grandmaster+ rank was a monumental achievement, a peak that one couldn't reach without leaving a trail of bodies in their wake. The experience gathered through this journey was hard to fathom.

However, despite all of these facts, the utter absurdity of the current situation made Alvis pause to think.

In Eldoralth, only a Grandmaster-rank weapon could ever think of cutting or harming a grandmaster rank. Their bodies had evolved beyond the comprehension of many, their skin and flesh tougher than the most lethal materials.

And yet, an ordinary-looking katana was currently cutting through him?

In Eldoralth, the mana that an individual radiated was directly tied to their rank, and rank was strictly tied to the power output one could reach. It was impossible to deceive or show a rank that wasn't yours. The only option was to completely hide it, and only paragons had such power.

And yet, this figure in front of him radiated a master- rank aura and was currently unleashing a strength well into the grandmaster-rank?

What the hell?

The speed at which Alvis was thinking was incredibly fast, shifting through different thoughts with blinding speed.

This entire introspection took mere nanoseconds in reality, but the crescent slash had already sliced through Alvis's left arm vertically, just inches from reaching his elbow.

The reality of the situation set in, and all the experience he had gathered over the years rushed into his mind.

Alvis's earlier green eyes turned into an intense shade of black, and with a deafening roar, the unsettling pitch-black aura around him exploded into the skies.

The shockwave that followed was so intense that the earlier crescent slash, which was about to cut him in two, met an impenetrable wall, pushing it back along with its creator.

Atticus was sent flying with intense speed, struggling to regain control of his body and momentum.

The shockwave carried him along with it, spreading out and destroying the inner section of the massive building along with the outer buildings.

The members of the battle force in the outer sections were all dragged along with the wave, unable to resist the overwhelming force.
