The hero's gender is yet to be determined after rebirth.

Kurara even thought for Lorenwei: if she could develop into a B-cup, she would be the perfect girl.

Unfortunately, she didn't know that Lorenwei had a connection with 36D ever since she entered the academy...

"Mmm." Lorenwei ate the candy, her cheeks puffing out.

Watching her eat, Kurala felt a surge of cuteness.

This girl is so cute and cuddly, you just want to take a bite. Sometimes she seems a little shy, which makes you want to tease her a bit.

I've always wanted a younger sister, and apart from her hair color being different from what I imagined, she perfectly matches the image of my dream sister.

"Is this all the men you have?" Headmistress Bordona said dismissively.

"Has the person the headmaster summoned arrived?" Cromwell asked gravely.

Bysol has arrived; he is a burly young man.

His intended profession is Defense Knight, a type of knight, and in some ways a branch of Paladin. It mainly involves taking on the task of inflicting damage, but lacks healing abilities, meaning it leans towards earth or wood elements rather than light elements.

The head of the teaching department said, "You haven't had your elemental talent assessed yet, have you? Let me see your left hand."

Bysol extended his left hand, and those on the stage could see that there was no mark.

This indicates that there was no cheating and the test was not conducted.

He started waiting for the test results: Wood element B, Earth element S, Fire, Water, and Dark elements were all F, and Light element was C.

Many of the students and parents present exclaimed that Bysol was a genius, no wonder the principal had summoned him.

"Nine steps to the Heavenly Ladder, and someone actually manages to climb them all?" Viscount Cromwell, surprisingly unperturbed, laughed and loudly addressed the crowd, "I've heard that one or two geniuses emerge every year?"

Jansen then chimed in, "Moonlight Academy boasts a strong faculty, attracting many geniuses to gather here for training."

The people in the audience listened and agreed that it made sense.

"As expected of the Great Sage." Cromwell, making no attempt to clash with the legendary figure, deliberately avoided the topic. "Any other geniuses?"

Just as Kurara was about to stand up and agree, Lorenwei suddenly grabbed her, preventing her from getting up, and said first, "Lord Cromwell, you've been wanting to test your abilities for a long time, haven't you?"

On the other side, Kurara wanted to have her talent tested on the spot, but Lorenwei stopped her.

"Why are you stopping me?" Kurara couldn't help but ask Lorenwei in a low voice, her curiosity piqued.

“While I believe your talent is exceptional, and the headmaster has seen countless people, so her judgment is sound,” Lorenwei explained, “that Viscount Cromwell is definitely not as simple as he appears on the surface. In fact, I think this guy…”

Lorenwei paused for a moment.

"What's wrong with him?"

"It's just a guess. Maybe the headmaster and my mom thought of it too, which is why they agreed to my suggestion."

Lorenvi couldn't bear to see such a magnanimous beauty suffer injustice; what if it affected her mental state during her cultivation? The academy was full of hidden talents; anyone could be sent to test the waters, and it wasn't worth using a princess who had just come from the Grand Duchy to apply.

Another option is for Lorenve to go first, but after experiencing the mediocre training of 36D, she's a little hurt. Although flirting with Kurara quickly provides visual comfort, she still needs to be wary of Baron Cromwell's trump card.

Because there's something she can't understand.

Was that the middle-aged knight from earlier the viscount's strategist? Or perhaps his advisor? Advisor? Or maybe...? Lorenwei felt that not only she, but also Aisses and Bordonna probably had this suspicion.

Kurara asked doubtfully, "I'm still a little confused."

"You'll see soon enough. Bad guys always have to show their tails eventually." Lorenwei smiled confidently, patting her chest as she said to Kurara. "Don't worry, I'll protect my sister."

"You'll protect me? Okay." Kurara smiled gently.

If her butler hadn't been so far away, he would have exclaimed in surprise that the princess had actually changed her temper. She wouldn't normally smile so easily.

In Kurara's heart, she felt that Lorenve, as the daughter of a hero, must have an extraordinary status. Yet, she was so kind to her, which was quite approachable.

He is indeed approachable...

Lorenwei, who had patted her chest to make a promise, was now questioning herself, wondering if her confidence was truly lacking, especially in front of Kurara.

Once on stage, after the initial shyness and nervousness subsided, Lorenwei focused her attention on the chest of Princess Kurara of the Grand Duchy of Posey.

There's no way around it, she's just too big...

Just like how Lorenve had secretly glanced at Ethers back then, her gaze kept lingering on Kurara's chest.

Although that glamorous woman's breasts were also large, what kind of taste did Lorenwei have? Of course, she preferred something like Kurara, a genuine, untouched product!

She might glance at secondhand goods that have been unpacked and unwrapped, or even multiple times, at most take a few extra glances and make a little unwanted advances, but she wouldn't be interested in flirting with them.

"Alright, I'll just wait and see." Kurara noticed that Lorenwei kept glancing at her chest, but didn't think much of it, assuming the child was just envious. So she handed Lorenwei the candy plate on her table and said with concern, "Eat some cheese candy. Ah, don't overthink it, I didn't mean anything by it."

"I lied to this child. I just wanted you to eat more so you could grow bigger." Kurala felt guilty. Although she wasn't sure if eating too much cheese candy could actually help increase height, she had certainly loved eating it back then…

"Thank you, sister." Lorenwei's mouth was sweet even without eating candy, and her voice was especially melodious and pleasant.

The period between the ages of fourteen and sixteen for the Sai people is truly unique; their perception of gender can be altered by their clothing. Perhaps this is a characteristic that lays the foundation for their gender identity to be established by age sixteen.

Kula is so generous! Could it be that eating more cheese candy is the secret? Lorenwei unwrapped the foil, tossed the candy into the air, raised her chin, and very skillfully ate it with a "whoosh" sound.

"So cute!" came a chorus of exclamations from the audience.

Lorenwei was surprised to find herself under the spotlight, and her face flushed slightly.

"It's alright, they mean no harm," Kurara said with a smile, watching Lorenwei's reaction. She was used to being the center of attention, but she never expected to be relegated to the sidelines today.

While waiting, Lorenvi, having nothing to do, said to Kurara, "Do you know that girl named Sally?"

Kurara shook her head: "I don't know either. But Sally is definitely in their scheme, and I guess they have something even stronger."

"Schemes within? Will it become a stepping stone? It doesn't matter. As an examinee, I must follow the academy's arrangements for my studies." Kurara truly has a broad mind.

“That has to be within reasonable limits,” Lorenwei said. “What if the academy allowed you to dress as scantily as that woman just now?”

Kurara quickly shook her head: "That won't do."

“Exactly.” Lorenwei felt that her example made a lot of sense, and added in her mind: It’s okay to dress like that in front of me alone, I don’t mind.

Sally arrived quickly; she was a blonde female swordswoman. She was beautiful and possessed a touch of heroic spirit.

As the female swordswoman Sally walked toward the elemental staircase, Portona said to Aisser, "There are rumors circulating that this child is the offspring of some great figure. Because of this, I have paid special attention to her. Although I have basically ruled out the possibility, her talent is undeniable."

When the test results came out, people exclaimed in surprise: "A dual S-rank talent in both water and fire!"

Before the crowd's exclamations of admiration had subsided, Cromwell stood up and said, "It seems that I, the Viscount, need to take a look."

Bordonna's smile slowly faded. A nagging intuition, honed by her long experience in high positions, told her something was wrong…

The clever Kurara also sensed something was wrong and asked Lorenwei, "Could it be that he is a genius with three or even more S-level talents? Double S-level talents are already very rare."

Lorenwei pulled up a chair and, instead of answering, quietly asked, "Hey, sister, what about you? What level of talent do you think you have?"

Kurala looked at her face, which was getting closer, and thought to herself, "Such beauty!" She hesitated for a moment before replying, "My father once had someone test my talents."

"What level of talent is it?" Lorenwei moved her cheek closer.

"Of course, it's not as accurate as the crystal array set up by the saintess in the academy, but I can still be fairly certain that I have high light and water elemental talents. My light elemental talent is slightly higher than my water elemental talent, which is very suitable for the development of the paladin profession." Kurara felt her heart beating faster for no reason and said with a little nervousness.

This is actually a characteristic of the Sevi people; it can inexplicably give the other person a gender intuition, as if the other person is special.

Lorenwei subtly sniffed, inhaling the increasingly distinct fragrance emanating from Princess Kurara as she drew closer, and replied casually, "Then we can presume your talents are S-rank in Light and A-rank in Water, right?"

"Not necessarily, maybe a little lower." Kurara said modestly, but then she heard surprised voices around her. Looking in the direction of the voices, she exclaimed in surprise, "Hey? See? Cromwell's test results seem to be very low."

"Are you surprised?" Lorenwei laughed. "How about we make a bet?"

"Hey?"

“I bet Cromwell’s talent isn’t even as good as Sally’s from before,” Lorenwei chuckled. “If I’m right, I’ll kiss you. If I’m wrong, you kiss me.”

"Stop joking." Kurara blushed, inexplicably feeling like she'd been flirted with...

Oh dear, she blushed. Big sister is so cute! Lorenwei thought to herself.

Why couldn't I control myself and started flirting with this older sister? It must be because I've been holding back for over a decade, and it's been so long since I've met such a broad-minded girl!

Including his previous life, he could be considered a virgin for over 30 years, so the title of Great Sage of Jason should belong to him.

Oh right, isn't it said that if a boy is over 30 and still a virgin, he can become a magical girl? Hmm, that sounds kind of plausible...

While they were whispering amongst themselves, the people below the stage began to stir slightly.

Because Cromwell had already completed the determination.

Returning to the starting point, he didn't need to raise his left hand; everyone could already deduce the outcome.

Because everyone could clearly see how many steps he climbed.

Only the fire and dark elements are A-level; the others either lack talent or are only C-level!

"No way? That's it?" One of the school teachers couldn't help but chuckle.

They're definitely on the academy's side; they were on tenterhooks watching Cromwell start the measurements.

The result was simply a double A attribute.

Although she was already a rare talent under normal circumstances, she was no longer worth mentioning after Sally of the Academy became a double S-rank student.

Cromwell, is this all the talent you have? Why were you provoking me before?

People were buzzing with discussion, and even Bordona and others on stage couldn't believe it.

For some reason, Lorenwei suddenly thought of Meilan. She had just told her she was going to the restroom, so her departure for so long was quite unexpected.

But after looking down at the audience for a long time, she still couldn't find Meilan.

"Or perhaps, because he caught a sudden cold? That affected his talent assessment?" Kurara guessed.

"cold?"

Kurara said, "I ran into him a little over half a day ago. I didn't see him through the carriage, but his voice sounded a bit different."

"A cold? It doesn't happen that fast. Have you ever seen that?"

"I may have seen him, but I didn't pay any attention to him at all."

"Didn't see him? That makes sense now." Lorenwei laughed. "Have you ever considered the possibility that there might be another Cromwell?"

On the other side, Cromwell, seemingly not ashamed but rather proud, walked towards the viewing platform while waving to those around him: "I'm sorry to have disappointed everyone."

Just then, Kurara smiled at the school's advantage, but Lorenwei leaned over and whispered in her ear, "This is going to be interesting."
