?Aurora had assumed yesterday was a one time thing because he felt sorry.
This was the first time Atticus was actually taking time out of his schedule to visit her.
The boy was always training and training. And if he wasn’t, he would either be with Anastasia or hang out with her only because she always checked up on him.
“Hmph! I guess you’re beginning to start being useful,” Aurora commented.
She suddenly grabbed one of the trays from Atticus’s hands and swiftly turned away from Atticus, attempting to hide the warm smile that had appeared on her face.
Atticus couldn’t help but smile wryly while shaking his head slightly.
‘This girl is a huge Tsundere,’ Atticus thought with a bit of humor before also smiling warmly.
He was glad to see her getting better.
They both ate their food while making small talk, and then, after a long while, they both left the room and started moving to the terminal where they would get teleported.
This was the moment Atticus had been dreading since ‘the incident’ last night.
They both walked in tandem with each other, their appearance capturing the attention of the already gathered crowd of students.
As soon as they got to the front of the black spire, with all of the Ravenstein youths already gathered at the front, Atticus’s gaze couldn’t help but land on Eric and Aria.
They were both standing separately from each other as though they were complete strangers. But of course, Atticus knew that was nothing but utter bullshit.
Atticus quickly diverted his gaze away from both of them.
Just looking at them was making him vividly remember the trauma-inducing scene from last night.
What ever both of them were doing wasn’t his business so he would simply ignore it.
The rest of the Ravenstein youths hadn’t changed much, but Atticus could see that they were all looking a bit sleep-deprived.
The lectures were obviously taking more from them than each of them bargained for.
With Lucas looking more like a thin, exhausted panda, and Nate with his usual sad expression simply stood still without saying anything.
As soon as the clock struck 11:45, Atticus gave his signature nod at Aurora and the rest of the Ravenstein youth and immediately entered the golden light.
Finding himself in the pristine white room, Atticus swiftly approached the door and walked out of the room. .𝒎
But instead of the usual scene Atticus was already getting used to seeing, this time around, there was a particular change Atticus would always be grateful for. 𝑖.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Stepping out of the room, he was instantly hit with a flowery scent he was all too familiar with.
Atticus swiftly turned his head left slightly, and his piercing blue eyes locked together with Zoey’s amethyst eyes as she passed in front of him, her purple hair gracefully flowing behind her.
Before Atticus even had the chance to enjoy this moment, Zoey’s lips suddenly curled up into a captivating smile that instantly made Atticus’s heart flutter.
“Hi,” Zoey greeted softly while walking past him.
It was obvious that it was simply a passing greeting, but despite how brief, Atticus was elated he was able to experience such a captivating scene.
‘What a way to make my day,’ Atticus thought while staring at the retreating figure of Zoey.
“We’re going to be late for class,” Kael’s voice suddenly rang out, immediately bringing Atticus out of his reverie.
Atticus turned to see Kael staring at him with his characteristic expressionless face. “Ahem,” Atticus cleared his throat awkwardly and started walking through the hallway with Kael walking in tandem with him.
They both apparently had separate classes for the day, with each class focusing on their respective bloodlines.
Consulting their oracles, they both found out that the 5th floor was where the venues for their lectures were, and after a few minutes, they both separated, and Atticus ended up standing in front of a large black door along with someone he hadn’t been expecting to be with: Seraphin Stellaris.
Atticus couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow upon seeing Seraphin here with him.
But after thinking about it for a bit, Atticus thought his presence here made sense.
The Stellaris family had bloodlines related to solar energy obtained from the sun. While it couldn’t be said to be elemental, it was still something in that line.
Seraphin’s lips, as usual, were curled up into a huge grin as he suddenly turned to face Atticus.
“Hey bro! I’m Seraphin Stellaris. What’s up?!” Seraphin greeted, his voice booming and resounding across the whole area.
Considering how low Seraphin’s voice had been when he had spoken to Gerald just yesterday, it was plenty obvious something was definitely wrong somewhere.
Immediately, when Atticus saw the boy about to speak, he had acted. Creating a barrier made of air to shield his ears, Atticus avoided getting deafened.
Hearing Seraphin’s words, Atticus couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
He really hadn’t been expecting an introduction from him when he saw him here.
The other tier one students had all been maintaining a certain distance away from each other. Not trying to talk or even form a connection.
Gazing at the excited look on Seraphin’s face, Atticus was inclined to offer a response.
“Hi, I’m Atticus Ravenstein. It’s nice meeting you,”
“Good good!” Seraphin suddenly exclaimed and then suddenly in the next instance, he turned and faced his front, not saying anything else.
Atticus sighed. ‘Of course, he’s weird,’
The people Atticus had been constantly meeting these days had all been weird, and if he had to be honest, he was already getting tired of it.
There was only so much weirdness he could handle before he too was initiated.
They both scanned their artifacts on the door, and with a chime, they both entered the room.
They were instantly met with an expansive room, and all across it were multiple large and imposing doors, each of them with different colors.
Atticus’s eyes immediately landed on the large icons that were on the top of each of these doors.
Each of them mirrored the different colors of the doors, and they seemed to depict different elements.
