Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 1701

Chapter 1701: Lust

Unive’s eyes widened so much that they looked on the verge of bursting.

Just... just what the hell had she just witnessed?

Not one, nor two, but five level threes! How in the stars had a peak level one defeated a group of such caliber?

Even more... he had not only withstood the corroding effects of the Primal Will, but had even gone as far as to take control over it.

In all her decade spent in the First Crown, never had she seen any human use Primal Will. It was centered solely around Reverents, no one else.

Yet this child was currently wielding it as though it were the most natural thing in the world.

The entire fight, from start to finish, should never have happened. In fact, it was akin to an ant trying to topple a towering mountain.

He should have been crushed instantly, yet of all the powerful presences that had filled the volcanic region, only one remained.

Unive swallowed as she stared at Atticus hovering in the sky.

Intense crimson blazed around him as though alive, while an overwhelming bloodlust that seemed to blanket the entire region seeped from his body.

Around him, an endless cascade of dead Reverents plummeted lifelessly from the sky, yet it was his unnaturally wide crimson eyes that made her heart sink.

’What the hell is this child?’

Suddenly, Atticus turned toward her.

The bloodlust blanketing the entire region instantly converged on her.

Unive’s body locked up. No matter how much she tried, she couldn’t move.

One moment, Atticus hovered in the sky.

The next, he was standing directly before her.

His wide-open crimson eyes met hers, and Unive’s heart lurched as a surge of killing intent froze her spine. Her body began trembling uncontrollably.

Unive bit down on her lip, a surge of shame rising within her.

She was one of the Queen’s Guard. Their sense of pride should stand second only to the primary line. She should never lower her head, never tremble, never falter before anyone.

Yet beneath Atticus’ silent stare, Unive felt her pride crumbling apart, replaced entirely by an overwhelming sense of fear.

When her mouth moved, Unive barely even realized it.

"I-I’m a-an a-ally... pl-please d-don’t kill m-me..."

"..."

Atticus did not reply.

Even after several seconds, he remained completely silent. Instead, his intense gaze slowly traveled across Unive’s body from head to toe.

Accepting the Primal Will meant letting go of all inhibitions. Everything that restrained him.

Right now, he was bare. As blunt and instinctive as anyone could be.

He felt intense lust toward Unive, and every part of his being pushed him toward indulging it.

Atticus knew for a fact that it was utterly wrong.

Yet he also had a feeling that if he resisted, he would be going against what the Primal Will represented at its core, which would essentially reignite his earlier clash against it.

Atticus couldn’t allow that.

Yet... he also couldn’t do such a thing to Anorah.

This... this was a bind.

Under Atticus’ silent stare, Unive’s trembling worsened. But Atticus didn’t seem to notice. Instead, his eyes suddenly sharpened as an idea surfaced in his mind.

’...I could do it later.’

He wasn’t refusing. He was postponing.
