Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 1442

Chapter 1442: Cira

"Wow! You look... amazing."

"...Thanks."

Caldor fixed his eyes on Nira. She’d dressed casually, wearing a crop top and cargo pants. Yet, Caldor found it stunning. It was a far cry from the military uniform she always wore.

A moment of silence settled between them.

’Shit, looks like I’m not getting any compliments.’

"Em—"

"...You look good." Nira adjusted her glasses, avoiding his shocked look.

He hadn’t been expecting that.

"Ah, thanks. It was just something I threw on, haha."

He scratched his head and awkwardly gestured down the hall.

"Shall we?"

"Okay."

They’d agreed to meet in the kitchen to make finding each other easier.

The date was a simple one, just a tour around the coliseum.

...

As they all left Caldor’s room, Aurora excused herself and headed for her room a hall away. As she turned, she caught sight of Zoey leaving her room and walking away.

’Where is she going again?’

Last night’s scene played in her mind, and with a cold gaze, she decided to follow.

’Let’s see if that bastard will show.’

...

"She’s acting out of schedule?"

Lyanna turned to her assistant, who instantly nodded.

"Yes, mistress. She’s always home at this time, but we just confirmed she left."

Lyanna frowned and stood from her office chair. After her ’meeting’ with the last spy, Dane, she’d doubled down on finding out more information on the next target. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

’Cira Noxwell.’

According to reports, she was a century-plus-old Vampyros who, for reasons Lyanna hadn’t been able to grasp, had made it to the position of council member.

’This is what being a pussy gets you.’

She knew the current state of Novareth. Because the dominion pillar was trying to promote peace and unity amongst the different races, they decided to promote diversity and condemn discrimination.

Because of this, a Vampyros had made it into power.

’She’s more dangerous than the others.’

Cira was a paragon. Compared to the others, she was a predator. Without a mana contract binding her, she could actually do damage.

Lyanna had instructed the Silence Nexus to expend everything to watch her. Now, they’d noticed a change in her schedule.

’I have to act now.’

Unlike the others, capturing Cira, a paragon, wouldn’t be quiet, and it would tip the people responsible that she was on to them. But she couldn’t ignore the fact that she was on the move.

"Where’s she going?"

"That..."

"What?"

The assistant hesitated, but soon nodded. "We believe she’s heading towards the dominion pillar, mistress."

’Why there?’

The dominion pillar was simply a large structure that was more symbolic than anything.

Lyanna went through her mind. The Eldorians were currently absent, and the place was practically empty. Nothing of importance was kept there except...

Lyanna’s eyes widened.

’Atticus’ barrier.’
