Chapter 253 School

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!

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.

None of them really knew anything about his capabilities; he might be very strong and be a bad leader at the same time.

But there was no better way to show how good a leader he was than during a real battle.

And from what the white haired boy had just shown them, they all had one look on their faces, acceptance.

He was their leader.

Atticus met all of their gazes with a neutral expression.

He wasn\'t really feeling special about what he had done; with all his powers and capabilities, it was only natural that he would be able to do this much.

And most importantly, he did everything for himself and not them.

But seeing as they were all looking at him, it was obvious they all wanted him to say something.

With a sigh, Atticus cleared his throat, and seeing that Atticus was about to speak, many of them were elated! It was his speeches that gave many of them motivation to come this far!

What was he going to say this time around?

Everyone focused their gazes on him eagerly and anticipated what he would say.

But many of them wouldn\'t have expected what happened next to happen.

Clearing his throat, Atticus turned his gaze towards the youths and addressed,

"Good job," he simply said.

Everyone kept staring at him, assuming he had more things to say, but they all received the shock of their lives as Atticus turned his gaze away from them, facing the direction of the terminal.

That\'s… all?

Many still couldn\'t believe that Atticus was done. It was far too short! Here they were expecting something that would pump their blood and boost their morale, but he had only said \'Good job\'?

It took a few seconds for them to get over it, and after that, something dawned on each of them.

In the one month they had been training their butts off, the hellish runs each morning, the weapons training for the whole day, even when they had successfully stood their grounds against the horde of beasts when he had brought them back to camp, this was the first time he was ever acknowledging them.

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,

***

[Dear Students,

Congratulations on successfully completing your first division battle. It is with great pleasure that we recognize your division as fully fledged. Therefore it is imperative for your leader to choose a name for your division before the commencement of the next division battle.

Kindly direct your attention to your respective artifacts, where detailed instructions for your next objectives have been meticulously provided.

The academy wishes you good luck.

***

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.
