Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88 You’ve Suffered

Finn sighed upon seeing Aurora like this. Even he didn't like the way Rowan treated his daughter. It was far too brutal. But what could he do? Rowan was his master, and his words were law. He had no choice but to listen.

"Young miss, Master Rowan requests your presence," he spoke.

Aurora didn't answer; she just kept holding onto Atticus's sleeves, shivering slightly. Atticus didn't speak either, not uttering a word. _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}

Finn, not getting his answer, spoke again, "You know what will happ—" but was interrupted as Atticus suddenly started walking away.

His gaze was forward, absolutely ignoring Finn's existence. He dragged Aurora with him as he walked.

When Finn had blocked their way, he didn't even acknowledge his presence. He completely disregarded him and only spoke to Aurora. So why then should he bother to acknowledge Finn's presence?

Finn blinked, completely bewildered. 'Was I just ignored?' A subtle chuckle escaped his lips.

He, a master rank, a rank achieved by only a select few in the human domain, a rank earned through blood and sweat, was being ignored by a 10-year-old child?

'Ah, it's unfortunate, but this is the world you live in, Finn,' he thought.

What gave Atticus the audacity to do such a thing to someone who could crush him like an ant?

It was power.

And Finn knew this. Sure, he was under a mana contract and couldn't harm Atticus in anyway, but there were many ways to make life hell for Atticus in the camp.

However, would he dare to do such a thing?

No! Not even Rowan, his master, could, so who was he to challenge the main family's power?

The power of the main family was absolute. Without a Paragon rank, Rowan knew what he was doing was all a waste of time, which was why he was thrilled when Aurora awakened her transcendent talent.

Finn couldn't help but shake his head with a chuckle, while gazing at Atticus and Aurora's backs as they left. 'You've suffered, Finn,' he thought to himself as he turned to leave.

…

In an office, Finn stood bowing in front of Rowan. He had just reported what happened when he went to fetch Aurora.

Rowan frowned. Aurora dared to disobey him? His aura radiated outwards, showcasing his grandmaster aura. The aura pressed down on Finn, making him kneel.

The disparity between a master and a grandmaster rank was just too much; he couldn't even fight against the aura.

"I'll get her myself," Rowan said coldly, his voice chilling. "Let's see if she dares defy me." And as he was about to stand, something suddenly clicked in his head.

He sat back down, trying to piece together the information.

What was it that they really needed? Yes, a paragon. But what else? It was something every person fighting a war needed: information about their enemies.

And how could they get it? It was by planting a spy.
