Chapter 253 School
Many of them stared at the area in confusion, not understanding why the area was charred. Although they all won the battle, the normal division members still had no idea how they had done it.
Atticus had only informed the Ravenstein youths when he asked them to get rid of the rest of the opposition members in the forest.
The rest of the groups started arriving with the Ravenstein youths all gathering around Atticus.
"Looks like you received quite the guest," Lucas remarked with a smile as he approached the group.
With a nonchalant demeanor, Atticus replied, "Yeah, it was nothing."
The Ravenstein youths exchanged knowing glances, smiles playing on their lips as they subtly shook their heads.
"Must be just another day in the life of our fearless leader."
Lucas chuckled and added, his words making the rest laugh in response.
Atticus suddenly observed something bright at the corner of his eyes, and he didn't even have to turn to know who it was.
'Here we go again,' Atticus thought with a small sigh.
Aurora landed on the ground after a few seconds, and unlike what Atticus had thought, she didn't make a fuss about anything. She only joined the group silently.
'Hmm, she must have found a way to vent before coming here,' Atticus thought.
Sometimes he honestly wondered as though the universe knew exactly what it was doing when it gave Aurora the fire element; they go so well together! The original source of this content is n0ve1bin★
Atticus turned his gaze away from her to see the Ravenstein youths and the other division members all looking at him.
They weren't looking at him in fear or anything; every single one of them was gazing at him with reverence.
Although many of them had already accepted Atticus as their leader, for some of them, it was because they had no choice.
Many might have been angry it didn't come sooner, but for them, it felt good, far too good. To think they received praise from the monster himself, they were happy!
After that, the area was filled with clatters and chatters as many of the youths talked about trivial matters to pass the time.
All of them waiting for the countdown timer to end.
But they didn't have to wait that long, as the countdown hit zero, just like the last time, the terminal suddenly emitted a blinding light that shot upwards encompassing the whole camp, and without missing a beat, the whole camp disappeared from the top of the hill.
...
Experiencing the same surreal feeling, Atticus opened his eyes after a few seconds and was met with the same massive terminal in front of him.
The camp didn't change at all. The large charred area was still there, and all the buildings were still the same.
But considering the surreal feeling that came with teleportation, Atticus was sure that they were back at the expanse.
Turning his gaze behind, Atticus saw that the rest of his division members were also here, and just as he was about to dismiss everyone, the usual AI face suddenly materialized on the black terminal immediately speaking,
***

Immediately, the AI voice finished speaking and disappeared; each of the youths received notifications on their artifacts.
Atticus and the others swiftly clicked on their artifacts to check.
After a few seconds of going through their new objectives, many of them expressed disbelief, not expecting this to happen.
It seemed that they were all going to school.
