Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 756

Chapter 756 Two Hope

Atticus gazed calmly at the screen in front of him.

'Even though I broke the rules and sent him out, it still counts as my win,' he thought. He had expected some sort of backlash for helping Draktharion, but everything had continued as though it didn't matter.

'Hmm.'

His thoughts shifted to the arena and the fight that had just ensued. The molten glow had faded, leaving behind many areas of devastation.

'He was weaker than I thought he would be,' Atticus reflected.

A reincarnator, combined with being born into a mid-tier race—those two factors had led Atticus to expect a far tougher opponent. He had thought he was facing a version of himself on another level today.

'Have I grown that strong?' He thought about the draw he had with Ae'ark during their battle.

Back then, the major reason for the draw was his lack of preparation. But after a year of extensive training, his growth had been remarkable.

But that wasn't the only factor.

His bloodline compared to Draktharion's was like heaven and earth.

'Is it possible the being who sent us here was trying to balance things out? Maybe because I was born into a lower race, I was given something this powerful,' the assumptions in Atticus' mind were endless, and he decided to stop thinking about it.

Turning his gaze back to the screen in front of him, he considered,

'A superior race apex should be stronger. I should prepare for the worst.'

Atticus ignored the message for now. Although he hadn't strained himself too much during this battle, he still wanted to be in peak condition for the next one.

'The mid and lower races are probably dead, and only the superior races remain,'

Aside from himself, the other mid and lower races had likely been eliminated, unless one of them had the fortune to be paired with a weaker opponent. This meant he should expect the worst.

Atticus quickly sat down cross-legged on the molten ground, entering a deep state of meditation. He replayed the fight in his mind, focusing on recovering his strength and will. The intense heat surrounding him seemed to accelerate his recovery.

…

The cheers from the human domain had eventually subsided, but the excitement in the air was still palpable.

Despite some battles about to start, many were still focused on their apex, even though he was just sitting there, doing nothing.

Meanwhile, an intense laughter echoed across a castle and forest alike. To any human, the sound would immediately suggest a Stellaris, but the laughter didn't belong to a human at all.

Whisker von Pounce's laughter echoed, even as Blackgate's killing intent engulfed the space.

"This human! How can he be human?" Whisker exclaimed excitedly. The others might not have noticed, but he had seen it clearly.

Atticus had used his will to counter the Dimensari's.

Whisker eventually settled down, deep in thought.
