Chapter 356 Awakening

To think he would be able to kiss that goddess! Many of them still couldn't believe what they had just witnessed.

And this feeling got even worse as Zoey touched the spot Atticus had kissed her on her cheek.

Why was she touching her cheek as if she actually enjoyed the kiss?!

'Atta boy! That's what we call a man right there!' Lumindra's excited voice rang out as she continuously kept on giggling happily.

But as sudden as she spoke, she abruptly clicked her tongue, clearly not satisfied about something.

'Tsk. But he should have gone for the lips! Fucking virgins,' she added with a click of her tongue.

Zoey didn't even respond to Lumindra's ramblings. She had absolutely no expression on her flawless face as she kept on touching the spot Atticus had just kissed.

After a few seconds, with every single one of the students' eyes focused on her, Zoey suddenly stood up from her seat and started walking out of the classroom, her expression not once changing.

The smell of something burning suddenly filled Lila's nostrils as she too watched with narrowed eyes as Zoey walked out of the room.

She immediately traced the smell towards the seat beside Eldric and Aislan, and she couldn't help but raise an eyebrow as she saw steam coming out from the space.

'Why is he…' Lila's gaze shifted towards the person sitting on the seat, her eyes landing on the figure of a particular orange haired youth, Seraphin Stellaris.

'He's… pissed?' Lila wondered. The boy was currently gazing at the large screen in front of the class, not relating or looking at anyone in particular.

He currently had an expressionless look on his face, and some who didn't know who the real Seraphin Stellaris was might even assume that he was in a good mood, a terrible mistake.

If not for the massive amounts of smoke gathering above him, no one, not even Lila, would have suspected that he was angry about something or in a bad mood.

Even the ones sitting the closest to him, Eldric and Aislan, had long since turned to focus their gazes on Seraphin, both of their eyes narrowed.

Even Harmonic, who hardly cared about anything in the class and always minded his business, also turned to stare at him, curious about what might have gotten him angry.

There was only one thing that had just happened: Atticus had kissed Zoey.

But they all just couldn't comprehend why that would make him so angry. And before they had time to ponder about the reason, Seraphin suddenly stood up from his seat, the seat having turned into an unrecognizable charred mess.

And they all watched as he walked out of the classroom without speaking or looking at anyone.

'So that's why…' Lila had always been perceptive, not that much of it was needed in this matter. She had already figured out why he was acting the way he was acting.

But her thoughts suddenly shifted to the scene of Atticus kissing Zoey, and she didn't know when her hands clenched into a fist. 'Dumbass,' Lila thought and instantly stood up from her seat and left the classroom.

And after a few moments, the rest of the students started streaming out of the classroom, the room become empty in minutes.

...

Atticus moved at a fast pace as he made his way through the hallway, an excited grin playing on his face.

He himself knew why he did what he did. 'This should hopefully progress things further,' he thought excitedly.

They had both been talking for a month now, and this had been exactly what they had been doing, talking.

They hadn't made any attempt to progress their relationship whatsoever. After his first attempt at kissing Zoey, Atticus had been reluctant to try again because of obvious reasons.

And from the little he knew of Zoey, Atticus was sure that he would have to be the one to make the move, or they would be stagnant for a century before anything could happen.

This was the last thing Atticus wanted. So, he had decided to make his move.

Atticus got to the elevator and instantly took it to the floor where the elemental rooms were situated. After a few minutes, Atticus found himself standing in front of the entrance to the rooms.

Atticus scanned his artifacts on the small terminal on the wall, swiftly paying for two hours. Then he entered the room and instantly headed straight towards the space elemental room at the end of the hall.

As soon as Atticus got to the door, he released a pulse from his mana core, and as the door swung open, his form moved at unreal speeds as he deftly avoided the orb shaped, invisible spatial distortions that threatened to pierce his form.

After easily dealing with that test, Atticus swiftly walked through the door, instantly feeling the familiar environment of the space elemental room.

Atticus allowed himself to be carried upwards by the unseen forces as he closed his eyes and entered a deep state of meditation.

He allowed himself to become completely immersed in the environment, simply allowing his body to drift in the space.

This had always been how he trained whenever he came to the space elemental room. He couldn't control nor even feel the space element, even though he was well aware of something enveloping him every time he trained in the room.

Atticus remained in this state for more than one hour, silently meditating, and then suddenly, Atticus's eyes snapped open.

'Finally!'

His thoughts were followed by an intense wave of dizziness that washed over him as he felt a tingling sensation spreading throughout his body.

It was as though a dormant spark had been ignited, sending a surge of energy coursing through his veins.

Atticus took in a deep breath, and he could immediately feel a deep connection to the palpable force that enveloped his whole form.

'So this is how the space element really feels,' Atticus realized.
