Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 1269

Chapter 1269: Attack

"Maybe they’re not as smart or strong as we thought they were."

An intense frown appeared on Elesha’s face.

She narrowed her eyes at Dekon. The Warbringers might be filled with the elite of the elite of the world Vortharion, but they were far from angels. Neither were they noble.

Their god, Nex, only valued power and strength. He cared little for the kind of people he was granting it to.

Elesha knew for sure that more than ninety percent of them were made up of murderers and rapists, the worst of the worst of the Vortharian people.

Elesha herself hated that fact more than anyone. The Warbringer title was one of honor and respect. It should be that. Their members should reflect that. But the reality was the opposite.

To call such vile people comrades had grated at her. Still, she had no choice.

When their god Nex gave an order, the entire world of Vortharion followed without complaint.

Elesha was no different. In fact, ever since Nex shoved a blade through the back of the previous tyrant emperor and began his insane campaign to unite the nations under his rule, Elesha had found herself enthralled by him.

His charisma. His power. His mind.

To her, when Nex gave an order, she would carry it out even if it cost her last breath.

And before he left, he had given just one order:

"Defend the world while I am gone."

Elesha didn’t care who the enemy was. Be it another god, enemies from another world, even if a fucking star attacked, she would carry out that order. Even if it was the last thing she did.

She stopped staring at Dekon and glanced at the others. Some had bald heads and weird looks.

Others looked every bit like madmen, grinning at nothing, talking to themselves, twitching fingers or tilting their heads in odd angles like something wasn’t right with them. A bunch of madmen.

Elesha cleared her mind.

"Listen, this goes for everyone," she said.

The Warbringers turned, raising eyebrows toward her.

"We’ve fought together too long for me not to understand how you think. You’re proud. Arrogant. The most egotistical group of bastards I’ve ever had the displeasure of meeting—"

"Oi, Elesha—" one cut in, already taking offense.

But Elesha continued regardless.

"But the thing is, you all think too much of yourselves. You think you’re smarter than you actually are."

The expressions of the Warbringers were already darkening. Some began to emit killing intent.

Their god, Nex, had left no one in charge. If this overzealous bitch thought she could run her mouth—

But Elesha didn’t stop.

"This is why you are all so relaxed despite the warnings we’ve received."

Her tone was firm.

"We were warned by our star. A being beyond our comprehension."
