Chapter 77: Training With Cordelia
When Atlas returned to the academy, he went about his life as if nothing had happened. Yes, things had changed, there was no way that couldn’t have happened, but at least most people still treated him the way he was.
With the help of the triplet sisters, Atlas had managed to gather around him again the people he had known in his previous life at this academy and who had saved many lives, even if they were not very good heroes...his friends.
This was very good news. They were people he had known in his previous life and who had at least agreed to be on the side of humanity. Atlas could turn them around, he would be able to accomplish and expand things.
Atlas was now on his way out of alchemy class, sitting in the classroom with Irene.
"You’ve been through so much. I keep hearing your stories." Irene said, a smile on her face, but deep in her heart there was great concern.
"Some things happened..." said Atlas, obviously not wanting to tell everything.
"It’s abnormal that you’re just saying something. You know I’m going to be a Marquess even if I don’t look it, right? It didn’t take me long to hear you were a duke," Irene replied, smiling brightly.
"So...Uncle has made a serious decision for the future. With so many people around me and gaining serious support, it was the best option. Until I turn 18, I will not have the rank of Duke, at least on paper. I am under the supervision of Lady Cassandra," Atlas replied.
Irene leaned back against the comfortable and large seat in the alchemy classroom and then yawned, "Unbelievable...What I wouldn’t give to meet one of the Sages...Especially Lady Bellatrix. She is an excellent woman in both alchemy and seals."
