Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 746

Chapter 746 Opponent

Magnus clenched his fist tightly, his eyes glowing an intense white. Like the other race paragons, he did nothing. It would be futile.

A frown appeared on both Luminous and Thorne's faces. Though they truly didn't like the boy, they were bound by contract to do everything in their power to protect him.

Should his life be in danger, they might have to go on a rampage here—an action that would surely spell their doom.

Seraphina gently placed a hand on Magnus's shoulder. The apexes' display of strength had been overwhelming, but unfortunately, there was no time to reflect on it. The current situation was far more pressing.

"It's not your fault," she said softly.

But Magnus's fist only clenched tighter.

No matter what anyone said, he had been the one to ask Atticus to participate in the Nexus. He had great faith in the boy's abilities, but life was full of uncertainties, and this situation only served to prove that fact.

As he stared at the large blank screen, Magnus made a silent vow.

If his boy's life was in danger, even if he had to pierce the very fabric of reality, he would reach him.

He would not lose another.

…

The world had gone utterly quiet.

Aside from the paragons, the masses were still unaware of the situation.

From the coliseum to the human domain and to every corner of the races' domains watching the Nexus, there was only silence.

A group of teenagers had destroyed an entire planet.

This thought echoed endlessly in everyone's mind. It was as though they were all struggling to comprehend the sheer absurdity of it.

They had known the apexes were strong, but this was beyond comprehension.

Even the Ravenstein estate and the White Omen Division at the academy were silent. Everyone who knew Atticus was overwhelmed by a wave of shock.

This was power on an entirely different level.

Soon, however, doubt began to creep through the human domain. The screen remained blank, and considering the force of that explosion, could their apex—a human—really have survived?

Though he had demonstrated overwhelming strength and reached the center just as quickly as the others, the humans couldn't help but feel uncertainty. They were too used to disappointment.

Perhaps the reason their screen was still blank was because their apex had lost?

But that soon changed. Suddenly, the screen flickered.

A figure appeared on the screen—calm, steady.

With piercing eyes and a flawless face, as though carved by the gods, a black suit clung to his frame like a second skin, and his snowy white hair flowed backward as if caught in an invisible breeze.

His attire had changed, but there was no mistaking that face.

Atticus Ravenstein.

It took a moment, as though the entire human domain was waiting to process what they were seeing.

And in the next moment, they erupted into a deafening cheer that shook the entire domain.

People leaped from their seats, roaring at the top of their lungs.

WOAHHHHHH!!!

Their apex was still in the Nexus!

And best of all—there wasn't a single scratch on him.
