I am the heroine's godfather!

"what a pity."

Bianca sighed, then turned and left: "Then, the next time we meet, we'll be enemies, Princess Anna."

Bianca left, but Anna maintained her elegant demeanor, which puzzled Charlotte and the others. Soon, however, some strangers approached Anna: "Your Highness Anna."

"Ah."

“We are all students from Isnar. In the coming years, we will follow Her Highness Anna’s lead.”

"Ah."

Anna nodded slightly, then waved her hand: "You may leave for now. We can discuss these matters again after the sorting process."

"Yes."

After they left, Anna breathed a sigh of relief, only to be met with the strange looks from her friends.

"Hahaha, well, I can explain that."

Anna timidly raised her hand.

Chapter 72 Sorting Ceremony

Such and such, such and such.

"So, in this guy named Bianca's eyes, you're her rival?"

"Uh-huh!"

Anna said with a pained expression, "I don't want to do these things either, but the other people in Isnar think I'll be their leader..."

"Okay."

Charlotte sighed. "I'll help you."

"Me too."

Daisy, holding her book, raised her hand. Laura smiled and said, "Although I'm not on Isnar's side, I can still help you!"

"You... Waaaaah... Thank you!"

The silly little Anna was so moved that she cried her eyes out, which made Charlotte quite disgusted for a while.

After some playful banter, most of the people had arrived. The brown-haired woman standing at the front clapped her hands, and although there was no amplification device, her voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

The noise gradually subsided, and the brown-haired woman smiled with satisfaction, saying, "Good morning, new students. It's a pleasure to see your vibrant energy. I am Chloe Smith, your orientation teacher, and I am also in charge of first-year herbalism. I believe we will have many more opportunities to meet in the future."

"Hello, Ms. Chloe!"

Everyone greeted her, and Chloe smiled and said, "Alright, freshmen, I will now take you to the auditorium for the opening ceremony. Your seniors have been waiting for you for a long time."

The group then followed Chloe to the Great Hall. As they passed the tall statue, Charlotte stopped and looked up. Seeing Charlotte's curiosity, Daisy said, "This is Principal Tamis. Tamis was the founder of St. Casta Academy five hundred years ago."

"A very good answer."

Ms. Chloe appeared beside Daisy and Charlotte at some point: "It seems this lady did a lot of research before enrolling."

"Ah, no, I just read some books. This passage is mentioned in the Chronicle of San Casta."

"Oh, humility is a virtue, but excessive humility is not good."

Ms. Chloe said with a smile, "I think I should give you some recognition for your outstanding performance. Hmm, Miss Daisy Mithridates, ten points!"

Everyone looked on in surprise. Was this nobody who followed Princess Anna really that capable?

As expected of Her Highness Anna, none of her friends are ordinary people!

Daisy was a little shy, as this was the first time she had attracted so much attention, but Anna looked proud: "That's right, our Daisy is just that smart!"

"Anna!"

Daisy called out, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. Charlotte and Laura exchanged a glance and smiled faintly.

"Alright, everyone, let's continue to the Great Hall."

After this brief interlude, Chloe led the group on their way to the Great Hall.

The Great Hall was originally built when San Casta was first founded. Although it has undergone several renovations, the basic framework remains the same as it was back then. Just standing on the land of San Casta, it exudes an ancient and rustic feel.

Miss Chloe waved her hand, and the door swung open with a bang, bringing a cacophony of noise to everyone's ears.

"It's said that both Princess Tria and Princess Isnar will be coming this year."

"The show is about to start."

"The students from these two families are sworn enemies, having fought for so many years without a clear winner. How about this year?"

"It's said that Princess Tria is an extraordinary genius!"

"I haven't heard much about Princess Anna of Isnar."

"But isn't Isnar currently vying for the crown prince position? Things aren't very peaceful there."

It seemed that most people's attention was focused on Anna and Bianca. Anna nervously fidgeted with the hem of her dress. Charlotte, seeing this, squeezed her hand. Anna looked up and saw that her friends were all looking at her with concern in their eyes.

Anna smiled, feeling much less stressed.

"Let's go, kids."

Ms. Chloe led the new students into the auditorium, drawing curious glances from the upperclassmen on both sides, especially the second-year students, who saw these little ones as their younger selves from last year.

Charlotte sat down, where four holy artifacts were already arranged in the stands. The old man in the teachers' section stood up, and Charlotte spotted Christine in the teachers' section, who was yawning listlessly.

"Look, Claire's slacking off!"

Anna also saw Christine and pointed at her, muttering softly. Logically, such a low voice shouldn't be heard, but for some reason, Anna felt as if Christine had glared at her.

"Alright, Anna, it's a bit impolite of you to say that about Miss Claire."

Daisy tugged at Anna's sleeve. Although Anna thought it was just her imagination, she didn't dare to do anything more.

The old man spoke up: "I bet you're all wondering right now, who is this old man?"

Laughter erupted, and the old man pressed down lightly, waiting for the laughter to subside before continuing, "My name is Lundilan, and I am the principal of Saint Casta."

"Lentilan!"

"That eighth-rank principal!"

"My God, he must be over a hundred years old!"

"You look so energetic!"

The new students were all surprised. Lentilan smiled and continued, "I am delighted to see that there are many outstanding students among our new students. I look forward to you all shining brightly in your future academic careers."

"I had prepared a very long speech, but I bet none of you want to hear it. You might even be secretly cursing this old man in your hearts."

Another burst of laughter.

Rentilan smiled helplessly: "So, in the end, all I want to say is: Welcome to Saint Casta!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"

Cheers resounded throughout the auditorium.

After the principal's speech, the college selection ceremony began.

"First place, Kana Ash!"

A brown-haired girl stepped forward, and Rentilan smiled and said, "Place your hands on the central platform, and the sacred artifact will answer your call."

She looked a little nervous, closed her eyes, and placed her hand on it. After a while, the sword began to shine.

"The sword of the hero has answered you, so, Kana Ash, Knights Academy!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The students of the Knights Academy cheered, welcoming the new students.

"Next..."

The Sorting Ceremony proceeded at a leisurely pace, until a familiar voice rang out: "Merta Bernette!"

Charlotte frowned. Her own sister?

It's best if you don't end up in the same college as me, sister, otherwise, you might not have a good time.

Kidding.

The Book of Wisdom emits a faint glow.

"Merta Bernette, the Academy of Sages!"

The students of the Sage's Academy cheered.

"Next up, Charlotte Bernard!"

Chapter 73 Sorting Ceremony (Part Two)

"Is there a Bernette?"

"Could they be sisters?"

The shared surname caused a slight surprise, and some people even recalled what Bianca had said at the school gate earlier.

Charlotte Bernard? What makes her so special that Princess Bianca has taken a liking to her?

Charlotte didn't care about these discussions. She slowly got up, walked over, and placed her hand on the table.

The four sacred artifacts remained silent for a moment, and then the sacred artifacts of the Knights' Academy and the Sage's Academy lit up simultaneously.

The room fell silent for a moment, then murmurs arose: "Being recognized by two sacred artifacts at the same time? What an extraordinary newcomer."

"By the way, has this happened before?"

"It's rare, but it's not unheard of. There was a senior who was recognized by both the Astrology Institute and the Sage Institute before."

How was it handled at the time?

"I remember that the person involved was allowed to make the choice."

"I see. I wonder where this freshman will choose."

"Need I say more? Of course it's the Academy of Sages! The Knights' Academy is just a bunch of brutes!"

"Heh, the Sage's House is just a bunch of gloomy, shut-ins!"

The students from the Academy of Sages and the Academy of Knights started arguing again.

Lentilan looked at Charlotte: "Miss Charlotte, it seems that your virtue and wisdom have been recognized by the sacred artifact."

"What should we do about this, Principal?"

Charlotte asked curiously, and Rentilan stroked his snow-white beard and said, "Choose your preferred academy according to your own wishes."

"Hmm, I see..."

Charlotte didn't have much to hesitate about. Although she was at the first level in both magic and martial arts under Loran's guidance, she wasn't that interested in martial arts, so naturally, she chose the Sage's Academy.

Of course, there's another reason: my older sister is in the Sage's Academy. Choosing the Sage's Academy means my school life won't be too boring.

Charlotte stated her choice, and Rendilan chuckled: "Charlotte Bernette, the Academy of Sages."

"Oh oh oh!!!"

Cheers erupted from the Sage's Abode, but Melta's expression seemed off. Through the layers of people, Melta met Charlotte's eyes, who wore a faint smile.

She suddenly felt a chill run through her body.

Why has this guy's personality changed so much in just one year?

It's all that guy's fault, he should have died long ago! If he hadn't been biased, if he hadn't helped Charlotte escape before he died, Charlotte wouldn't have had this opportunity today!

Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!

Even though he was cursing inside, Merta still had a faint smile on his lips.

Just like Charlotte.

The Sorting Ceremony continued, and soon Charlotte's friend's name was called: "Laura Mister."

Laura swallowed hard and walked onto the stage.

The Book of the Sages emitted a faint light.

"Lola Mister, the Academy of Sages!"

"call......"
