Chapter 251 Laughter
As soon as the AI voice resounded, almost instantaneously, each of the terminals the youths were guarding stopped emitting their bright lights, their forms dimming.
Then, the whole camp descended into a brief silence, only to be broken in the next second by each of the youths cheering loudly.
"WOAH!!!!!"
Many of the youths instantly started jumping up and hugging themselves in celebrations. The original content can be pinpointed to n0v3lbin•
Unlike the Ravenstein youths who remained unfazed, having expected their win, each of the youths was exhilarated and happy that they won!
And the fact that all of them had participated in the battle had left them feeling proud and happy at how far they had come.
Some of the youths were away from the terminal inside the forest. After Atticus had defeated the whole army, he had commanded each of the groups to enter the forest and get rid of the last batch of youths.
The battle hadn't lasted, with the combined efforts of the armored, dealers, and rangers; they were able to dispatch them in a matter of minutes.
And now, the battle was over, and they had won it.
...
Back in the academy's first year control room, Harrison and each of the instructors felt their blood pound when they witnessed what Atticus had just shown.
The number of spectacles he had displayed was too much to count.
Many of the instructors had no idea how the Psyquillian bloodline was activated or the steps needed to initiate a connection.
Although they all had general knowledge about the bloodline, they knew nothing about how it worked.
The geniuses from the other races had always overwhelmed those from the human domain; not even Magnus and Avalon had been able to change this fact.
But gazing at this white haired boy with piercing blue eyes who had this much strength at just 15 years old, they might have just found their Apex!
Harrison's lips curled up into a huge grin, this time not bothering to hide his excitement.
He suddenly burst into laughter, an action that astonished every single person in the control room.
The all so serious Harrison was... laughing?
In all the years they had all been in the academy, in all the years they had spent together in the academy, this was the first time they had ever seen him laugh.
Many of them were all so used to his serious demeanor that they had even assumed he was incapable of laughing.
But amongst those individuals who were shocked, no one in the control room was as shocked as Isabella.
With her mouth wide open, Isabella gazed at Harrison's laughing form in absolute shock, 'what the hell...'
In the 34 years of her life, this was the first time she had ever seen her father laughing. Many might find that hard to believe, but this was the truth.
She might have remembered him smiling a few times while she was growing up, but laughing? Never.
Harrison remained unfazed by the stunned expressions on every one's faces in the control room, his laughter persisting without any indication of stopping.
After a startling pause for most observers, Harrison eventually ceased, his finger delicately tracing the contours of his left eye as he wiped away a single tear.
A few lingering chuckles escaped him before he abruptly turned, and he started walking toward the exit.
Each step echoed with the resonance of his fading laughter.
In a surreal silence, every one in the control room watched as the door smoothly slid open, and Harrison walked out of the room.
