Appearance[]

Atla has the appearance of a 10-year-old demi-human of the Hakuko race. She has ears and a tail similar to that of her older brother, Fohl, but it's hard to tell if they are from the same race. Despite being a slave, her white and black hair is glossy while her skin is smooth and pale. Her appearance has been compared to that of a porcelain doll.

When we first meet Atla, her body is covered entirely in bandages. Beneath those bandages hid festering and painful sores. Upon seeing her for the first time, Naofumi wonders "Is this mummy even alive?."

Personality[]

Atla is strong-willed and exceptionally smart. She always seeks to gain Naofumi's attention and would do anything to gain his affection. She has a tendency to punish anyone who gets between her and Naofumi, especially her elder brother Fohl. The love she has for Naofumi borders on the obsessive. She is very decisive and often takes the initiative when partaking in anything relating to Naofumi.

Background[]

From the time of her birth, Atla has had a hereditary illness. Due to this illness, she couldn't see or walk and was given a short life expectancy. If she ever gained the ability to walk she feared that she would always be the one who needed protection. As her illness got worse and debt increased, from treatment, she and her brother, Fohl, were forced into slavery. While she lay suffering Fohl was forced to fight in the Zelburt Consortium. Her brother learned many languages during this time and when he got back from fighting he would teach them to her. She always looked forward to this as listening to him speak always gave her comfort.

Atla instantly realized who Naofumi was and asked him to take her brother and leave her. To her surprise, he ended up taking both of them in as slaves and treated her illness. It took two doses of the Medicine of Miracles, also known as "Yggdrasil," to jump-start her healing. After the second dose, she was able to walk almost immediately and begin her new life.

Trivia[]

  • Atla is the only resident of the world who pronounces Naofumi's name perfectly, other than the holy heroes.
