      by Atlas Haven — Chapter 31 I Released Cola in Nortaris! (1) A meeting room without a single window. Thick cigarette smoke drifted over an old mahogany table. Marcus, chairman of the Gray Council, polished his monocle with a soft cloth as he spoke.

      by Atlas Haven — Chapter 30 Clarisse Rosemore (2) Night seeped into the reception room that had gone days without a caretaker’s touch. Beneath the bluish moonlight that stretched like stage lighting. A woman sat on the sofa with a handkerchief neatly spread beneath her. Red eyes that shone like freshly cut roses, Platinum blonde hair so noble it seemed each strand was woven on a loom from moonlight itself. A gaze quietly cast down beneath long eyelashes and an elegant neckline. Her beautiful form was like a…

      by Atlas Haven — Chapter 27 A Rose That Falls Gracefully (1) The process of alchemy activation is as follows. First, the caster uses their magic power to draw out the power of elements from the alchemy catalyst. The drawn elements pass through magic circuits and are constructed in a certain form—this refined power is called a ā€˜Code.’ For instance, even using the same Wind Feather, if you only use the ā€˜discharge’ code, it becomes ā€˜Calling Wind’ that raises strong winds. If you overlay two codes like…

      by Atlas Haven — Chapter 26 The Undertaker (4) Britannia’s vehicles, powered by magic, were quite classic. Since the synchromesh performance was poor, he had to shift while double-clutching, and in that process, Jurgen stalled the car several times. Though he had a license in modern times, he had almost never directly driven a car since coming to this world. ā€œMiss Penelope, are you really okay?ā€ ā€œI-I’m fine. I’m much more stable than you, aren’t I?ā€ Because of that, Penelope was gripping the steering…

      by Atlas Haven — Chapter 24 The Undertaker (2) With Penelope’s full cooperation, the Cola business truly caught a tailwind. They had made sufficient capital by selling Cola at high prices. Blyton had also been quiet recently, perhaps because the bluffing properly worked on him. Originally, business was something where momentum had to be seized at once. This meant it was time to prepare for the full-scale popularization of Cola. ā€œMiss Penelope, what do you think we’ll need for popularization?ā€ ā€œWho are you…

As expected of me.ā€ Reviewing the day’s events, Penelope hadn’t thoughtlessly charged at Blyton. There were two purposes. Information gathering and bluffing.
