Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 1130

1130 Plan

Ae'zard expression darkened, then went cold as his gaze settled on the mass of humans and paragons gathered outside the Aeonian domain. 'No.'

He instantly understood what was happening here but his answer was a firm no. There was just no way he was going to risk his domain for them. With the sheer scale of the battle ensuing between whisker and the gardener outside, even a single nano second without the shield could prove fatal for their race. He wasn't going to drop the shield.

But right then, slicing through the sky like ice, Atticus' voice rang out.

"Ae'zard."

He addressed the leader of the Aeonians by name.

"I don't need to introduce myself. You already know me, which means you know what I am and what I can do," atticus said. "Allow them in, and I'll see the Aeonians as allies when this is over. Don't, and I'll take you all as enemies. This is a threat. And I will follow through."

The expressions of Ae'zard and the rest of the paragons darkened.

This… was insane.

Atticus was using his power, his potential, to threaten them outright.

Even worse, he wasn't even trying to hide it.

"Wha—" Ae'zard began, but Atticus' voice cut through once more.

"You have two seconds before we leave."

Ae'zard's gaze shot toward Atticus, only to freeze.

'His eyes… they aren't joking.'

He had seen what Atticus could do. He had witnessed it firsthand.

It was absurd, the boy was far too young for such strength. Even worse, his potential… it was immeasurable.

Ae'zard had tried to gauge it and he failed.

Which meant, if Atticus survived this crisis, it would be catastrophic for their race to stand against him.

There was always the chance he wouldn't survive, but Ae'zard wasn't willing to gamble the survival of their race on possibilities.

He clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth.

"You better be true to your words," he said.

Atticus nodded, his expression unchanged.

Ae'zard sighed heavily, his shoulders sagging under the weight of the decision.

"Allow them in," he commanded.

The gazes of the other Aeonian paragons shot up in shock. None of them had expected Ae'zard to actually submit.

But Ae'zard threw them a detached look, and instantly, they bowed their heads, turning into streaks of light as they fired back toward their cities.

Relief washed over the humans, Evolari, and Nullite paragons. None of them had truly believed Atticus would be able to sway the Aeonians.

They had heard every word he spoke. But none of them expressed any discomfort at the threat he posed.

It was for survival.

At this point, none of them could afford to be naive.

Seconds later, a large hole, just wide enough to fit the people gathered outside, opened up before them.

Atticus didn't waste any time.

He shielded the hole with his aura, preventing any impact from the ongoing battle from leaking inside.

Atticus nodded, understanding him.

Once inside the Aegis Shield, their perception wouldn't be able to pierce through, they would be completely sliced off.

Which meant that they wouldn't even know if they were winning or losing.

As the shield sealed itself, Atticus' aura retracted back into him.

His gaze shifted, landing on his family, still staring at him with worried eyes.

Anastasia, Avalon, Magnus, Aurora, Ember, Caldor, Zoey, Kael…

Each of them glanced at him as though he was heading into his final battle.

Atticus smiled at them, giving a firm, reassuring nod.

"I'll be back. Don't worry," he said.

He also gave nods toward Jenera, Zenon, Ae'zard, and the other paragons before turning sharply, moving away from the shield, Ozeroth grinning as he followed beside him.

Once they had put enough distance between themselves and the shield, Ozeroth clapped his hands eagerly.
