I didn't actually know her being a low level noble there was no way I would have ever had the opportunity to meet with any ducal house if it wasn't for the commotion that I caused when I arrived to the academy I doubt that she would even know that I existed but I didn't recognize her personally what I recognized was that angelic aura and her house crest as my mother constantly complained about it before my awakening house Voluptas which if you recognize the name you can understand why she was so upset as the idea of angelic power being associated with that would piss off a lot of people.
noble girl:"I'm sorry to have called you here so last minute but I couldn't resist when one of my friends sent me a recording of your tamed creature oh where are my manners I am Cordelia Voluptas"
Rick:"I'm Richard Blood-Storm and I am of course very proud of Lilly" Lilly was preening over the attention
Cordelia:"That is quite understandable I thought that my doppelganger was impressive never did I imagine someone would show up with something that appears to be similar to a nymph and a fairy she is absolutely gorgeous and it appears that she is more than just good looks as my doppelganger informed me that she seems to possess a lot of mana"
Rick:"Indeed although I to am thoroughly impressed by your monstrous doppelganger I have never expected to see one so up close without it trying to kill me and yet it has only displayed perfect etiquette befitting of a well trained butler"
Cordelia:"Yes, I am very lucky to have him I would not have been able to tame him if it wasn't for my angelic aura to calm him and allow me to bypass his mental defenses in order to connect with Lenard" she blushed lightly realizing she just revealed her mental affinity
Rick:"There is no need to feel so embarrassed Ms Voluptas I will guard your secret as we all have them and it would be quite foolish on my part to take advantage of beautiful girl such as yourself only to lose your trust" causing her to blush even harder and even stammer
Cordelia:"I.. I.. I...th..thank you and please call me Cordelia" trying to regain her composure but continued to blush
Rick:"Then I want you to call Rick anything else seems too formal"
We continued to chat about unimportant topics and she once again began to relax in my presence we discussed every and any thing that seemed to interest her from art to dance to her secret love of enchanting because it made her feel like a goddess bestowing her blessing if it wasn't for her doppelganger stopping her every so often when she would mention her family or her major secrets she would have told me everything but I never showed any dissatisfaction eventually the ceremony began it was beautiful but apparently it was pretty boring to Cordelia as she struggled to keep her attention on it if not Lenard constantly pestering her eventually they began to explain the school system as the only reason I wanted to attend was learn about anything relating to magic and making connections.
Of course all good things must come to an end as someone knocked on the door judging by Cordelia's facial expression she knew who it was and was none too pleased with having to meet them but had no choice as the door opened a fopish looking boy that almost resembled a a girl followed by a dashing boy and three pretty girls who all easily out ranked me and judging by the lack of manners from the girly boy his rank must be equal or at the very least close to Cordelia's rank but as soon as he saw me his happy face faltered for a brief moment only to recover so fast I would have thought I was seeing things but I wasn't the only one to notice it as she saw it Cordelia smirked and moved to sit closer to me even going so far as to hold my hand which caused her to blush and only add to the misunderstandings
girly boy:"Who is this Cordelia?" while looking down on me
Cordelia:"This is Rick my new intimate friend"
girly boy:"Well Rick I think it would be best for you to leave" with a sneer
Rick:"No I don't think I will I'm quite comfortable with Cordelia beside me for future reference my friends are permitted to call me Rick last I checked I don't have a friend who I can't tell is a boy or a girl so you will refer to me only as Mr Blood-Storm and in polite society when asking for someone's name you are supposed to introduce yourself first although I wouldn't imagine you would have any knowledge of that" I said calmly
