In the central area of the Aldridge Empire, the central square in the fifth largest city in the empire, Angus City, there was a teleportation array. As the Arcana kingdom, the layout of the teleportation array of the Aldridge Empire was the most complete among the various Human Empires.
On a bench in the center of the square sat a female mage in a grey rob. The people in the square consciously stayed away from this mage, and the children also followed the adults in doing so.
“My eyes aren’t mistaken, are they?! Isn’t that the empire’s ugliest princess, Princess Ariel? Didn’t His Majesty send her to Olsylvia Academy in the Manasvir Empire? Why is she...”
“Shh, hurry up. Don’t you want to live? Even if she’s ugly, she’s still a princess...”
Ariel ignored the voices of passers-by. The former owner of this body was indeed an ugly woman. She finally committed suicide because she couldn’t bear the pressure of being refused marriage time and again.
This was fine. Only her close friends could witness her beauty. Even if others wanted to, she didn’t want to give them the chance! It was also good to keep a low profile; otherwise she would be harassed by annoying flies every day, just like Kriss.
There were many people in the central square of Angus City. There was a forest near Angus City that was said to have been formed by the tears of the Goddess of Life, one of the legendary twelve Gods of the God World, when it had fallen onto the earth.
Students of the magic department of the Olsylvia Academy, together with the two famous magic academies of the Aldridge Empire, “Magic Teachers’ Academy” Listabel Academy and the “Academy for Great Wizards” Dimiost Academy, were holding a Magic Discourse Assembly.
Frederica Academy, which was supposed to attend the Magic Discourse Assembly, didn’t send any students because President Caroline had just returned, and was busy with internal matters.
After the magic teleportation array shook, the figure that Ariel had so dearly missed finally appeared. The Grand Duchess of the Gabriel Empire, Holy Knight Bella, who was also Lord of the Sarnia Duchy in the South, another identity of Bella’s. With Ariel’s current information, she was merely a Demon King.
“Ariel, you’re here! I’ve found you. The magic array in your country is too expensive. It costs a few gold coins for every teleportation.”
Bella complained a little that the Aldridge Empire discriminated against non-magical professions, and the Mages’ arrogance made the entire Arcana kingdom have an inexplicable sense of superiority over other non-magical professions.
This was the case with the Human Race. They had an inexplicable sense of superiority towards each other. The knight profession looked down upon other military professions, just as they looked down upon the magic professions. The knights who acted like lords in front of the other military professions also had to behave obediently in the Aldridge Empire.
This wasn’t the knight’s territory, so it was better for Bella to keep a lower profile. She was now wearing an ordinary knight’s light armor and the Olsylvia Academy crest on her chest. To keep a low profile, Bella didn’t even wear the emblem, symbolizing her identity as Grand Duchess.
Seeing the contemptuous looks of the people around her, Bella could only secretly sigh. Heaven kept accounts, so it’s better to do good. The knight profession could throw their weight around in other places, but in a mage’s territory, they could only keep a low profile.
“Ariel, aren’t you going to the Magic Discourse Assembly?”
“No, they are now hunting in forests. No one has formed a team with me. Elaine had to do something and left without even showing up at the assembly.”
Bella ignored the looks from everyone else that seemed as if they were looking at some monster. She walked over and grabbed Princess Ariel’s hand. The two left the central square. Among the mages watching, there were quite a few who made sarcastic remarks. But since Bella was a girl, there weren’t that many insulting them.
With Ariel leading the way, they soon came to the second activity of the Magic Discourse Assembly, the teleportation array of the area of the Magic Hunt. The Magic Discourse Assembly held by the “Magic Teachers’ Academy” Listabel Academy and the “Academy for Great Wizards” Dimiost Academy was similar to Bella’s previous “combined dorm activities” held at the Knight Academy.
Because something happened during the “Knight’s Assembly” activity, they had to return the next day. The Magic Discourse Assembly here was already halfway in progress. Bella looked at the scores of each academy on the bulletin board.
The scores of Listabel Academy and Dimiost Academy were almost the same. Olivia Wizard Academy was about a hundred points behind these two academies because not all the magic professions of the Olsylvia Academy had attended. None of the priests, such as President Isaman, came.
As the traditional core strength of the Olsylvia Academy, the strength of the Magic Department was much greater than that of the Knight’s Department. Under the circumstance of insufficient personnel, it was really not easy to cling to the two magic-based academies, Listabel Academy and Dimiost Academy.
“Ariel, our score is a bit low. Even if you didn’t attend, it shouldn’t be so bad!”
“Bella, the captain of our team is Chief President of the Central Student Union, Angelia. She is on pretty good terms with Caroline, the President of the Frederica Academy’s Student Union. She was worried to death when Caroline disappeared. When she heard that when Caroline came back...”
It turned out that the captain of the Olsylvia Academy team, Chief President Angelia of the Central Student Union, went to visit Caroline, so there was no one leading the magic department. President Lucia, of the Filomena Nobility Academy’s Student Union, was supposed to replace Angelia.
President Lucia was more often a cute mascot. Bella was the secretary of the Filomena Nobility Academy’s Student Union, so she knew that the president was only cute and had almost zero credibility.
The workings of the nobility Student Union depended entirely on the efforts of the Vice President Dusk Knight Daphne and Thunder Knight Aurora. Now that they weren’t here, Lucia obviously couldn’t control these arrogant mage students.
If she remembered correctly, one of the male Saviors, God Chosen Mage Adelaide, was also here. That guy also had some cheats. How could it be this bad? Could his Savior identity also be fake?
“Adelaide? That guy went to Listabel Academy as a foreign aid when he knew that President Angelia wouldn’t be here. Otherwise, our academy wouldn’t have lost so many points!”
Ariel didn’t like her younger brother, who was a transmigrator like herself, but didn’t want to admit that they were related. Although both were Saviors, they were very different. Adelaide was an Orthodox Savior, and Ariel was a Dark Savior.
Adelaide’s temporary defection was probably due to the fact that there are many beautiful young mages in the Listabel Academy. He wanted to sweep in dashingly and help the academy rake in a whole lot of points. After that, beautiful girls and fame would come knocking.
To Bella’s surprise, Listabel Academy didn’t manage to crush Dimiost Academy even with a male Savior as foreign aid. Bella suspected that Adelaide was a disgrace to the Transmigrators’ League. Even with his cheats, he still couldn’t defeat the “natives” of the Other World.
Bella carefully inquired before she realized that this year there was a wizard genius named Glaston at Dimiost Academy. Glaston was originally the illegitimate child of a wizard family. He didn’t have any wizard talent and was expelled from the family at an early age.
About three years ago, Glaston was attacked by dark forces while studying forbidden summonings. He almost died and was unconscious for more than half a year. Unexpectedly, his strength soared after he regained consciousness. He mastered the undead magic that others couldn’t control. His character also changed from being weak and cowardly to wanton and unrestrained.
This time, if Glaston hadn’t joined, Dimiost Academy would have been crushed by Listabel Academy, which had foreign aid from a transmigrator. Bella seriously suspected that Glaston was also a transmigrator and was eighty percent sure he was a Savior.
Glaston’s rise gave her a strong sense of deja vu. He was so similar to Adelaide’s sudden outbreak of strength after being struck by lightning. They were both transmigrators. After a long time, this was a competition between two male transmigrator Saviors who were trying to show off. Bella fell into a short silence.
Ariel hadn’t participated. Otherwise, there would still be a Savior on Olsylvia Academy’s side, and the results would be equal to the other two academies.
Bella saw several acquaintances, Sylvia and Serena from the Magic Department of the Olsyvia Academy, in the teleportation array. Sylvia changed into a navy mage outfit, which was in sharp contrast to Serena’s red outfit.
In front of Sylvia and Serena were several male mages who stood in their way. They weren’t wearing the uniforms of the Olsylvia Academy. Bella didn’t know whether they were from the Listabel Academy or Dimisot Academy. They were all dressed in a very conservative style.
“Els, please get out of the way. We still have to go through the teleportation to take part in the academy mission.”
“Serena, please. Sylvia and I are family friends. What is even there to compete? Your Chief President isn’t even here, so let’s take advantage of this time.”
Sylvia hid behind Serena. She didn’t seem to like talking to the blonde mage in front of her. Since sleeping with Bella, her antipathy towards her fiance, who was originally designated by her family, had intensified.
Els obviously didn’t want to waste an opportunity to hook up with Sylvia. Magic students from Listabel Academy accompanied him. God Chosen Mage Adelaide, the foreign aid from Olsylvia Academy, made a big splash in the Listabel Academy these past few days.
Most of the beautiful girls in Listabel Academy were all attracted by Adelaide, making the boys embarrassed as hell. A foreign student snatched the girls in their own academy. It was hard for them to swallow.
So, they had planned to come out and hook up with the girls from the magic department of the Olsyvia Academy to restore the dignity of the boys in their academy. Unfortunately, they happened to meet Bella. Sylvia was a close friend who had slept with Bella.
“What are you guys doing here? You’re in my way!”
“Where did you come from? How dare a knight enter the mage territory... My hand...”
Els was probably used to being arrogant. When he saw Bella wearing ordinary armor, on top of the fact that she was just another beautiful girl, he wanted to slap her immediately. Bella responded promptly and grabbed his hand, pulling forward.
Bella pulled Els and kicked her knee into his chest. Before Els could respond, he was kicked and fell to his knees. Bella took out a dagger and placed it at his neck, just like a robber taking a hostage.
The onlooking mages were shocked. This female knight’s moves were no different from assassins. This didn’t seem right. Wasn’t she a knight?
“Don’t... don’t mess around! I am A...”
“Shut up. You don’t have to quote some noble family’s name. Like I care! If you don’t want to die, then behave! My dagger is covered with poison.”
Bella directly interrupted Els. This noble child’s face was filled with embarrassment. That’s not how it’s supposed to end. She wouldn’t even allow him to finish his act of snobbery.
The soldiers of the Aldridge Empire, who were ready to maintain law and order, soon arrived at the scene. When they saw that Princess Ariel was also present, they didn’t know what to do.
“Let go of Els. He’s from Earl Alder’s family... Why are you pulling me?”
“Captain, look at the assassin... the ring on the lady’s hand...”
“Isn’t she just an assassin. What... Uh, that’s...”
After seeing Bella’s ring, the captain of the Aldridge Empire guards was speechless at once. Bella didn’t wear knight’s armor on her hand. Before, her hands were placed very low, and outsiders didn’t notice them.
On Bella’s right hand, a magnificent ring was worn on her index finger. It was the ring symbolizing the Duke’s status in the Human Empire. There was no possibility of it being an imitation. There weren’t many Grand Dukes in the Human Empires, and each ring had basically been recorded.
The little captain was in a dilemma. The son of an Earl of their country had attacked the Duchess of another country. As a result, he had been stabbed in the neck by the opposite party. Both sides were aristocrats. If he didn’t handle it well, this might become a dispute between two nations.
“Is there a misunderstanding? Honorable Duchess, could you please put down your weapon...”
“I refuse. Everyone knows that mages have instantaneous magic. I warn you, this dagger is laced with poison. If you don’t want anything to happen to him, just back off...”
The mages who were watching soon recovered from their surprise. Many of them had also found Bella to be a Grand Duchess. They immediately swallowed the words meant to denounce Bella. Everyone had clearly witnessed how Els wanted to slap Bella. Because of their arrogance as mages, they deigned to lie.
The attack of a lower nobility on an upper nobility was itself a blatant provocation to the dignity of the latter. If both sides were nobles of the same country, Bella would have no problem killing Els on the spot. The problem was that the two sides were from different countries, and it wasn’t a good idea for Bella to kill him right here.
“Honorable Grand Duchess, please be merciful. Els’ family is a noble of our empire, so this time we’re in the wrong. Mmm, sister Ariel is also here! Please persuade your friend...”
While the captain was preparing to report to the Lord of Angus City to deal with the matter, someone finally came over to help. Alephia, the President of Listabel Academy’s Student Union, stood up. As the student president, she had to help when her own schoolmate was in trouble.
Alephia, a member of the royal family of the Aldridge Empire, was one of the princesses and only a few months older than Ariel. Ariel instinctively hid from Alephia. She didn’t want to see Alephia very much.
Because she was too ugly, the former owner of Ariel’s body felt inferior to her sister Alephia, who was much prettier than herself that she was on an entirely different level. This emotion affected Ariel now, and she didn’t want to have any intersections with Alephia.
Bella carefully looked at Princess Alephia. As the President of Listabel Academy’s Student Union, she was very attractive, with pink wavy hair, a pair of pink eyes, she was a little taller than Ariel. Her beauty was on the same level as the Chief President of Bella’s Student Union, Angelia. Compared to Ariel, after her makeover, she was still a little less attractive.
It would be better if Alephia could change out of the conservative uniform of Listabel Academy. Her slim figure could vaguely be seen from that uniform. It was really such a waste that others couldn’t appreciate it.
Out of the Student Presidents of the twelve elite human academies, Bella had met a total of four aside from President Angelia. Crimson Knight Elise and Styx Knight Stacey, who were the presidents of the two knight academies’ student unions, as well as President Dinah of the assassin academy and President Caroline of the ocean magic academy.
Without exception, these presidents had been completely exposed before Bella and had every inch of their bodies touched by her. Bella had gotten Caroline and Dinah into her bed. After “Collector and Controller of Princesses,” Bella seemed to have the new title of “Student President Nemesis.”
Alephia was different from the previous presidents she had met. Bella could feel from her gaze that this president was much calmer than her own president. It was probably due to her profession. Female mages were more rational, so it wasn’t easy to catch their flaws.
Bella had taken advantage of President Dinah’s difficult situation. At the time, her schoolmates and Vice President Anya were in Bella’s hands. Through various shameless methods, she had won the aloof president of the assassin academy.
“Princess Alephia, I can let him go. But you have to get me a temporary foreign aid status. I am a foreign aid student from the Olsylvia Academy, and I would like to take part in midway through this activity.”
“Also, my patience is limited. If you don’t answer right away, I will detain him and take him to the Imperial Alliance to ‘reason’ with him!”
“Can you change... your terms?”
President Alephia had originally predicted that Bella would make some rude demands, but she didn’t expect her to make such an unusual one. The activities between the mage academies had not used knights as foreign aid so far. The venue of this activity was full of demonic beasts with advanced physical resistance. If a knight were to enter the area, wouldn’t that be seeking death?
“No, this is my request. I can sign a liability disclaimer. If something happens to me, none of you will be held responsible. If you don’t agree, this guy will have to explain himself to the Imperial Alliance Parliament.”
President Alephia had no choice but to compromise. No matter what, it was the fault of the lower nobility because Els had attacked Bella first. It was better to handle the matter within the scope of the Aldridge Empire. If it was brought to the Imperial Alliance Parliament, she wouldn’t be able to control the situation.
