Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 1640

Chapter 1640: ...Nothing

Whisker, on the other hand, let out a dry laugh.

"Haha, what do you mean, friend?"

The warden gestured toward Atticus and the others.

"Processing only needs one warden. The rest of you are just crowding the place."

"Ah, right, right. They just came to see me off." Whisker chuckled. "I promised them a round of drinks later. Now they won’t stop following me."

A faint smile appeared on the man’s face as he looked at Atticus and the others with an amused glint in his eyes.

"You heard him. Stay back. I promise I won’t run off." Whisker said.

"You better not."

Thora said with a grin. Atticus and the others silently nodded before moving away.

As Whisker entered the building, Atticus exchanged glances with Azeron and the others, and they began making their way toward what they considered the main building.

"Hey!"

Atticus frowned as he felt an arm wrap around his shoulders. He forced himself not to react instinctively and turned to see a broad Willguard staring at him with a grin.

"I’ve been looking all over for you. Where the Star have you been?"

Atticus could feel the darkened gazes of Azeron and the others on him. Though they hadn’t spent enough time together, they knew Atticus wasn’t the type to behave casually.

Recalling how the Willguard he was mimicking had sounded, he imitated the voice.

"...Went for a drink."

"A drink? Why do you sound so tense?" The broad man frowned. "Don’t tell me you forgot about our plans."

Atticus blinked.

"...Plans?"

"Yes, plans. Don’t tell me you actually forgot. We’ve been setting this up all week."

"...I see. I’m sorry, but I won’t be able to—"

"Star no! Don’t tell me you’re backing out now."

He glanced at the others and gave a nod.

"Sorry, I’m borrowing him for a bit. He’ll be right back."

Before Atticus could react, the broad man grabbed him and pulled him away, dragging him in a direction entirely different from their intended destination.

’What the hell is happening?’

They had chosen to use the appearance of the earlier Willguard to gain easy access to the prison, but who would have thought something like this could happen?

’Go without me. I’ll meet you there.’

Sending a telepathic message to Azeron and Thora, he focused on the current situation, trying to think of a way out of it.

’Let’s see what this plan is first. It might not take long.’

He wanted to refrain from killing anyone, at least not for now. If he could finish whatever ’plans’ this man had quickly, everything could proceed smoothly.

Atticus frowned as they approached the southern section of the prison, where a sign reading Dormitory hung above the entrance.

’Where is he taking me?’

The scowl on Atticus’ face only deepened as the man hastily led him through the dormitory halls before stopping at a door.

The man’s face was restless and impatient as he glanced back at Atticus.

"Ah, Judo! Do you have any idea how long I’ve been waiting for this?"

’Huh?’

The man quickly opened the door and stepped inside, dragging Atticus in behind him.

’What is going on...’

Atticus was still finding it hard to understand the current situation. He stared, baffled, as the broad man began removing his armor in haste.

Soon after, with his chest now bare, the man frowned when he saw Atticus standing frozen.

His eyes softened slightly as he sighed.

"I know it’s frustrating. Sneaking around like this isn’t easy for me either."

"But what choice do we have, Judo? The Willguard would never accept us. Never accept our love."
