Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 710

Chapter 710 Blackgate

"What a peculiar child. Your talent is truly immeasurable, so much so that I find it hard to believe you're human. It's being wasted here. How about it? Join us, and I'll let you kill her."

The gazes of Kazimir and the other branch heads flickered with shock. Even Avalon and Anastasia, who instinctively wanted to fly up to their son, were momentarily frozen in disbelief.

Avalon grabbed Anastasia's arm, stopping her, though the tension in the air was intense.

Before anyone could react, Blackgate raised his arm, and in an instant, Elysia materialized in front of him, trembling.

Her once-confident demeanor had crumbled entirely, her face now marred with fear, her body old and withered. She began speaking fast, stuttering.

"My lord, I-I mean Paragon… I've been loyal to the Order. I-I would never betray—"

Her voice, once cold and assured, was now trembling and frail, matching her aged appearance. But mid-sentence, her words were cut off.

A sharp, piercing scream filled the air as blood gushed from her mouth. Her tongue had been severed without warning, blood dripping from her lips. _{freёwebnoѵel.com}

She met Blackgate's eyes in horror, immediately silencing herself, her body shaking in sheer terror.

Blackgate turned his attention back to Atticus, but his eyebrows lifted slightly. The temperature around them was climbing rapidly.

Inside Seraphina's construct, Atticus had become a living inferno, his body radiating heat so intense it warped the air, turning it into a liquid-like haze. The flames around him roared hotter than ever, every inch of his form pulsating with fury.

Blackgate smiled, "Such anger. Beautiful."

He stretched his hand out toward Atticus, fingers curling as though to pull him in.

But then a sharp voice cut through the tension, cold and intense. "You must be blind."

Seraphina's usual serene tone was gone, replaced with an icy fury that chilled the air.

A large shadow suddenly stretched out from behind her, an oppressive aura radiating from her figure that made the entirety of Sector 3 shudder.

The ground quaked beneath her power as her gaze erupted into an intense purple glow. Behind her, two massive, slanted yellow eyes appeared, looming over the battlefield like the gaze of a divine beast.

Her voice echoed through the space, regal and majestic, carrying a weight that only a divine being should possess.

"It's either that, or you've chosen to blatantly disregard me."

Purple marks etched themselves across her face as her aura grew even more intense, cracks splitting the earth beneath her feet. The power of a Paragon unleashed fully.

"I would advise you pick the first option. I have a short fuse."

The air grew thick, the tension climbing to a suffocating level. Even the grandmasters in the area found it hard to breathe. Seraphina's aura had fully erupted, the pressure making it clear she was ready for battle.

Avalon clenched his fists so hard his knuckles turned white. The others stood still, watching with grim expressions.

Another Paragon clash here would annihilate Sector 3. However, Avalon, Anastasia, and most of the Ravensteins were more worried about Atticus, who was dangerously close to the action.

Blackgate, however, merely chuckled. "Seraphina… I would be a fool to claim I didn't see you. But does that really matter? Drop the bravado. We both know you have more to lose here than I do."
