Everet's study looked similar to Cyrus' and Atlas' but it was much more mature. It had lots of books on the shelves, but the books were incredibly thick. One look and Atlas knew he could not understand what was in them. On his desk, there were two large piles of papers.
The study didn't have a lot of personal items, but it did have portraits of the Alnhart family.
Atlas even saw a picture where he and Sir Walter were included.
Everet motioned them to sit down on the sofas. There were two sofas so he sat down next to Atlas and Sir Walter while the person who looked like a butler sat down with the muscular person.
There was a coffee table in between the two sofas. Everet's personal servants had already placed down cups of tea and some cookies just in case Atlas wanted some.
"Atlas, the person on our left will be your personal butler and the person on our right will be your personal guard. You can introduce yourself to them if you want to."
Atlas was a bit nervous, but with Sir Walter and Duke Alnhart with him, he had a bit more courage.
"Okay, thank you, Dad!" He then looked over at the butler and bodyguard. "Hello, my name is Atlas Alnhart. I'm still getting used to the gender constructs of this Empire, so please excuse my ignorance. My pronouns are he/him. I grew up in the forest until recently, so my manners are not the best. I hope that we will get along from now on."
"And this is Sir Walter. He's my best friend and big brother. I hope you all will treat him like you will treat me."
"Woof!" Sir Walter gave a majestic bark and showed off his fluffy and clean fur.
The two were still stunned at seeing Atlas' appearance, but they knew they had to be professional and snap out of it. They were warned that Atlas, who had the blessing of the Dragon God and the God of Light, would be accompanied by a Divine Beast, but seeing was believing. Atlas looked just like the scriptures that depicted the Dragon God, with only one eye color difference.
The butler was the first to introduce himself.
"It's an honor to meet you, Lord Atlas and Sir Walter. My name is Nolan Sevil. I am 20 years old, and my pronouns are he/him. I come from a family of commoners who were born and raised in Hirim. I will do my best to take care of you both from now on."
"It is a pleasure to meet you too, Mr. Sevil."
"Woof!" Sir Walter was saying it was nice to meet you too.
"Lord Atlas, Sir Walter, you may call me Nolan!"
Atlas wasn't one for stiff pleasantries so he took Nolan up on his offer.
"Then Nolan, please take care of us from now on."
After Nolan's introduction, Atlas' new bodyguard was next.
The voice that came out was a bit deep, but it reminded him of Devina. "Hello, Lord Atlas and Sir Walter. It's a pleasure to meet you both."
They gave a salute. "My name is Kris Altman, but you can call me Kris. I am 22-years-old and I am Devina's younger sibling. I am also agender so you can refer to me using they/them pronouns.
"Oh, I don't know if Devina told you, but we come from a Barons family who specializes in combat. It's a recent thing, so I am not too privy on manners and stuff like that."
Now that Atlas looked at Kris Altman more carefully, he noticed that they both had tan skin and a similar hair color. They also had really similar body types!
