Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 864

Chapter 864 Fanatics

As Atticus approached his door, he suddenly stopped when he saw Dario and Niall standing in front of his room, waiting for him.

Their eyes widened in shock as he approached. Dario was the first to snap out of it. He quickly bowed and greeted,

"Young master!"

The loudness of his voice embarrassed him almost immediately, and he shook his head in embarrassment. But Dario couldn't be blamed. From the last time he had seen Atticus, his entire aura had changed. In fact, it was as though he had become a completely different person.

Since Atticus had come out of the Abyssal Chasm, his aura had been lethal, like the feeling of a knife constantly pressing against your throat.

But now, his aura was different, expansive, overwhelming, and awe-inducing. Dario had the strangest urge to worship him, which made him question his own sanity.

'Where is this feeling coming from?'

Niall, on the other hand, didn't even bother to hide his shock. His crimson eyes were wide, and so was his mouth.

"Y-you… what happened to you?" Niall finally stammered, completely baffled.

Atticus knew what he meant, but he ignored the beast. Instead, he turned to Dario and acknowledged his greeting with a simple nod.

"You can stand straight. Are you guys okay?"

Atticus's words were undoubtedly a command, but to Dario, they felt more like a divine decree. His head shot up, and his back straightened instinctively as he responded quickly.

"Yes, young master. We were saved by Master Magnus during the clash between you and the Obsidian Order."

Atticus's eyes flickered. 'Huh?'

His senses had just picked up something unusual from Dario. The man's expression looked normal, but with Atticus's recent power-up, he could sense something deeper.

Dario's feelings were as clear as day, reverence, anticipation, and, surprisingly, hunger.

Dario gazed at Atticus as though he were some form of salvation.

'He's ambitious,' Atticus thought, quickly discerning Dario's intentions from his emotions and gaze. But it didn't change anything. He couldn't sense any ill intent from Dario. The man simply wanted to use him to fulfill his own ambitions.

'It's a natural human feeling… but I don't even know what to make of him.'

Atticus turned toward Niall, who was still staring at him with wide eyes. When Niall met Atticus's gaze, his eyes dropped involuntarily, as though he didn't dare meet it.

Niall shook his head, realizing what had just happened. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't lift his head to meet Atticus's eyes, as though his body refused to obey him.

Atticus could feel a wave of different emotions coming from Niall. Awe. Shock. Reluctance. It was too numerous and conflicting for him to make sense of.

'At least they're both okay,' he thought.

During his battle with Blackgate, the truth was Atticus hadn't cared about anything else. He knew his family wasn't in the sector, and he hadn't given anything else a thought.
