Chapter 194 I Would Make You Regret It

Atticus's last words made many of them happy. Zara couldn't help but smile brightly hearing this.

The other youths followed suit, bowing to show their thanks. Before, they all had no way of hunting beasts for academy points.

In fact, given how weak and talentless they were, they were sure to suffer during their time at the academy. They had all thought the worst when Atticus had called them.

Atticus simply acknowledged all the praises with a nod. He knew why he was doing these things, and it wasn't for them.

"If you have any experience with blacksmithing, step to the right. You don't have to be highly experienced; even if it's just sharpening weapons, still step to the right," Atticus instructed.

Following his guidance, Zara and around 20 other students promptly moved to the indicated side.

Atticus nodded, "If you have any medical knowledge, step to the left,"

They all instantly listened, but unlike the other youths, these ones were fewer, about 10. And unsurprisingly, they were mostly females.

Addressing the remaining students, Atticus declared, "I will be using you guys for the admistrative group." nove-lb.In

Observing the three formed groups, Atticus concluded, "Starting from tomorrow, you would all be trained to understand and perform your roles better. But for now, you can all go rest; it has been a long day."

Atticus instructed, noting the sighs of exhaustion on most of their faces.

Just as they were all about to turn, Atticus suddenly heard a clicking sound, an audible expression of irritation that, despite its subtlety, couldn't escape Atticus's heightened senses.

Atticus sighed.

He had already promised himself, especially after that incident with William when they had wanted to ruin his reputation.

Zara was watching the scene with a worried expression. Hen was her childhood friend and she knew just how much he hated the tired families.

The only reason he joined Atticus's division in the first place was because of her.

Amongst those present, it was only Lucas who wasn't too surprised. He had no idea why Atticus was laughing, but he knew Atticus wouldn't just blatantly beat up someone just like that.

He was sure the only reason Atticus was doing this was to provoke the boy into doing something stupid.

But in the midst of this unfolding drama, Atticus was still in mild disbelief. Did he just hear that correctly?

The only reason he was investing so much points on all of these things was to prevent unnecessary 'deaths' and avoid going bankrupt.

But now this fool was actually telling him that he was going to hunt beasts regardless of how many times he 'died'?

Atticus's gaze turned cold.

With a thought, surged from beneath Hen, swiftly wrapping around his form, holding him in place.

"W-what are you doing!" Hen shouted as he made futile attempts to channel what little mana he had and escape.

The earth carried him, bringing him closer to Atticus.

Just as Hen was about to shout once more, he suddenly met Atticus's gaze, and his words instantly froze. It was as though icy water was poured over him as he felt chills down his whole form.

Atticus spoke, making sure the rest of the students around heard him, "Listen, I don't care about what you decide to do. You have your own free will. But, for reasons I'm going to keep to myself, your 'deaths' affects me badly."

Atticus suddenly unleashed his aura, enveloping all the students in the area, causing all the youths to struggle to remain standing.

The force of his presence intensified, bearing down on them like an unseen weight.

The majority of it was focused on Hen as he struggle to hold himself together.

Atticus continued, his voice resonating with a chilling tone that sent shivers down the spines of all who heard it, "If I ever find out that you or any one of you died an avoidable death, I promise you, I would make you regret it."
