This 10 year old's confidence was out of this world!

What did they just see!

Everyone in the hall was astonished by what they had just witnessed. The audacity of this 10 year old child to address a Edward, in front of so many powerful presence, with such authority was met with open mouths and raised eyebrows.

And he did it to a Grandmaster rank individual no less! Asking him to kneel?! The balls of this 10 year old was larger than a skyscraper!

Atticus's message was clear to everyone watching in the hall; even if his actions were wrong, who was Edward to question them?

So much confidence! It was hard to believe that someone so young could do this.
