Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 669

Chapter 669 Spar

As soon as Atticus made his choice, he and Magnus left the training room, and Magnus immediately instructed the crew to head back toward the capital, where the elemental sanctums were located.

Dario, Amara, and many others wondered why they were returning, considering that Atticus had already graduated from each of the sanctums. However, when they asked Atticus, his response nearly gave them all a heart attack.

Domain!?

Many of the crew members, especially Amara, felt a sting in their hearts. They all knew that Atticus forming a domain was inevitable, but they never imagined he would attempt it so early.

None of them even considered the possibility that Atticus could fail. Everything he had set his eyes on so far had been accomplished, exceeding every expectation.

A battle against an apex of another race, which they had all expected to end in his immediate defeat, had ended in a draw. Six months to graduate from the elemental sanctums? He did it in less than a month.

The Abyssal Chasm, where they only expected his battle strength to have increased or him even dying, had brought an even greater surprise—he had crossed over into the Master ranks.

Considering everything that had happened, Amara and the crew members all wondered what the genius kid would show them next.

After his training with Magnus, Atticus headed back to his room to rest but came across someone he hadn't seen since coming out of the chasm: Niall.

Niall met Atticus's eyes without saying anything. 'I'm not bowing down to you,' he thought. He might be a slave, but he was determined not to show Atticus such respect unless forced by the contract.

It looked like an obvious attempt to maintain his dignity as a grandmaster. However, Atticus had absolutely no intention or time to play games.

Why should he care if a random fool bows to him or not? He had bigger fish to fry than worrying over something that didn't affect him in any way.

However, something popped into Atticus's head.

"Are you aware of or do you suspect that the Sovereign did something to either one of us? Anything," Atticus asked.

Niall's gaze narrowed. The Sovereign might have put him in this situation, but his loyalty to him was still as strong as ever.

Being asked a question about the Sovereign, Niall's instinctive reaction was to remain silent, but the power of the contract was absolute. Niall felt a nagging pain increasingly rack his head until it became unbearable.

"N-no. I am not aware of anything like that," Niall finally forced out.

Atticus stared at Niall for a few seconds without saying anything, then simply walked away.

'If the Sovereign did something, there's no way he would be so stupid as to make my slave aware of it,' Atticus thought as he continued walking down the hallway. He already knew this fact but still wanted to ask.

This was the first question Magnus had asked him, and Atticus hadn't thought about it before.

He felt as though if the Sovereign had done something to him, Cedric would have informed him when he entered the Katana's realm. However, what if it happened afterward? The thought nagged at him.

'Calm breaths, Atticus,' he told himself, feeling frustration creeping in. So many things were happening all at once, and he had so many worries.

Five months had already passed, and Atticus had only seven more months until the Nexus Event started. If he wasn't well-prepared, it could mean the end of his life. Aside from that, a war might begin soon, and he had no idea when!

"Would you like to spar with me, young master?" she asked. _{freewēbnoveℓ.com}
