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

Several school newspapers and magazines were posted on the wall. They were newspapers and magazines with articles written by students and published by the student council. The contents of these articles were quite eye-catching, such as "Is Lorenwei and Loren the same person?", "Lorenwei is the best choice for a lover!", and "Why does Lorenwei occupy the top spots on both the most popular male and female lists?".

It's fair to say that the newspapers and magazines within the academy have been dominated by news about Lorenwei for the past few days.

No wonder the whole school knows about it; gossip alone couldn't have spread to this extent in such a short time.

Lorenwei got up and looked at the contents. They were relatively easy to understand. In short, the students had heard the gossip that Lorenwei was a Sevi. Many people did not believe it at first, but more and more evidence showed that the Sevi people did exist.

Then, the student reporters, who loved excitement, began to search everywhere and collected a lot of evidence proving that Lorenwei and Loren were the same person.

For example, Lorenwei and Loren have never appeared together. The only time they were seen was when some students presented flowers to Kurara. However, Loren looked very handsome that time, and it seemed that Loren in the distance was only showing his figure, and no one could even see his full face. There is ample reason to suspect that he was a stand-in.

Subsequently, numerous historical records and unofficial histories corroborated the existence of the Sevi tribe and the claim that Lorenwei, as the daughter of a hero, did indeed have ancestors whose lineage was undetermined.

With numerous arguments presented, the vast majority of students naturally came to believe it.

Thus began a major debate about whether it was appropriate for Lorenwei to conceal the truth about her gender.

The result of the discussion was an overwhelming conclusion: Lorenve can be both male and female, which is fantastic!

"What kind of conclusion is this?" Kurara looked at the newspaper on the wall, rubbing her forehead and having a headache.

Lorenwei laughed and said, "I can be a best friend with gentleness, and a brother with strength. I don't mind your roughness, and living together is no problem."

Furthermore, many girls confidently asserted that even if Lorenwei were a man, his character would be trustworthy!

Because during the entrance physical examination, everyone noticed that she did not go into the women's changing room for the examination!

What does this show? It means they don't take advantage of others! Look at that, what noble character!

At that age, which boy wouldn't want to peek through the women's locker room window? Yet, Lorenwei, a special case who might be considered a boy, doesn't even use her feminine appearance to sneak into the women's locker room!

"She has a good character?" Siruf couldn't believe what she was seeing.

"..." Kurara looked at Lorenwei's assertion that she wouldn't enter the women's changing room and gave her a sharp, knife-like glare.

"Hehehe..." Lorenwei could only laugh awkwardly.

Another author boldly declared in writing: "I stand here and declare that Lorenve is the most worthwhile person to befriend in the entire academy! Regardless of gender! Making friends with her (him) is absolutely a win-win situation!"

Then, the article also said a few words about the three women, Kula, Sylph, and Melan.

[If you disagree, look at what these three smart women did.]

[The princess publicly announces her (his) relationship! A female elf pet flies in from outside the academy! A red-haired beauty who catches your eye secretly moves in with her!]

Who do you think you are, some kind of scheming bitch?! Kurara really wanted to tear the newspaper down, but it had already been published throughout the entire academy, and there was no way to salvage it.

Kurala silently noted down the author's name: Sally.

Sylph said to Lorenwei in a sarcastic tone, "Congratulations, you're now the most popular person in the whole school, and you're popular with both boys and girls!"

"Don't be silly, I'm already stressed enough with the three of you... I'm happy enough with just the three of you! Why would I need a fourth one?"

"Oh, the nicknames are all chosen."

"No, it was just a casual remark." Lorenwei noticed that the two girls were jealous, so she decided to take it seriously and went over to collect all the love letters. "I burned these."

Sylph hesitated slightly, saying, "Well, after all, it contains other people's feelings. Isn't that a bit impolite?"

Lorenwei readily agreed: "Then I'll make a time capsule."

"A time capsule?"

Later, Lorenwei went to the school bulletin board and openly prepared to announce her Seville identity, and buried a time capsule under the flagpole in the square.

A magically reinforced, metal-forged box containing love letters sent to himself.

The reason I used a box is because as soon as I got back, a guard brought me some love letters. I was too embarrassed to put them on my desk, so I just wrote my class and Lorenwei's name on them.

Back in class, class monitor Atpa announced, "Hey, Lorenwei, in the inter-school competition between continental academies in two weeks, you're a seeded player and have been guaranteed a spot in the Misty Sea, so we didn't register you for the preliminary rounds!"

Inter-school competition?! Lorenwei was excited; she could finally practice!

Chapter 224 Threatened with a Magical Copy! Lorenwei's Unintentional Revenge

"He has no conscience! He came back without even saying hello. Where is justice? Where is humanity?!" Burbo's cries of injustice echoed near the small villa.

"Teacher, I'm so sorry." Kurala apologized profusely.

Mr. Burbo was her mentor, and she should have greeted him upon his return. Kurala felt deeply guilty.

However, the usually well-mannered Kulala forgot about this incident, and it wasn't until the evening when Burbo came to her door that Kulala realized she had been impolite.

“It has nothing to do with you. It’s mainly because of some ungrateful guy. Yes, I’m talking about you.” Burbo glared at Lorenwei.

Lorenwei didn't take it seriously at all, and even deliberately provoked her, saying, "Hahaha. I've just forgotten about you, so what? I only have Kula and the other two in my mind, and the headmistress counts as half of her, since she's a beauty. But why would I remember you? I'd have nightmares about you in the middle of the night."

Kurara looked at Lorenwei, a strange sense of happiness welling up inside her. Yes, she had been so preoccupied with Lorenwei that she had completely forgotten to greet her mentor upon her return.

"And I even went up to comfort you when you were at your lowest point. If I had known it would turn out like this, I shouldn't have bothered with that girl who sat frozen in the street like a stone for hours!"

"You were really stunned for so long after I slapped you? Serves you right for lying to me!" Kurara glanced at Lorenwei, a smile playing on her lips, her eyes filled with affection.

"Huh? Was Lorenwei really that badly off back then?" Meilan came over and looked Lorenwei up and down. "This heartless, shameless girl, could she have suffered such a blow?"

"I don't believe it either," Kurara chuckled.

Sylph, recalling the situation, snorted, "It should have rained heavily and soaked her."

“Heavy rain? Not enough. It would be better if it snowed, to show that I’ve been wronged. Maybe then Kurara would turn back immediately; she’d definitely feel sorry for me,” Lorenwei said shamelessly.

Kurala shoved her: "Go away, who would care about you?"

Sylph also said, "It would be best to use a knife, it will hurt you to death."

"Hey... I didn't come to watch you two show off your love!" Feeling ignored, these young people left him hanging, Bulbo exaggeratedly pounded his chest and stomped his feet: "Moral depravity! Who would have thought that the most popular person in the academy would be such a hooligan?"

"That's how I am, whatever." Lorenwei adopted a "what's the worst that can happen?" attitude, determined not to be taken advantage of in a matter of reason.

"Hmph, you think I can't deal with you like this?" Bulbo revealed a sinister smile, taking out a small magic rubbing from his robe. "If you don't want me to reveal this, then you'd better compensate me honestly."

"...!!!" The moment Lorenwei saw it clearly, her eyes widened in shock.

It was after she was slapped by Kula that she sat blankly on the road, staring into the distance.

Although she looks pitiful, this is a black mark on Lorenwei!

"..." Lorenwei suppressed her nervousness, telling herself not to show it, and deliberately hummed in a flat tone: "So what if it's a rubbing? The angle of the photo is not good. Even if it's sold, it's only worth a meal for me."

"Hmph, stop pretending, you're very nervous." Burbo's smile was sinister. "I want you to make a different meal every day, one that only I can enjoy."

"How could I possibly make something that's never the same? And only for you to enjoy? Don't be ridiculous. I can consider making you a dish that only you have ever eaten."

"Only one?"

"Plus, this dinner is on me tonight. It'll be eight dishes with an extra pair of chopsticks. If you don't want to eat, then we can't talk." After saying these two sentences, Lorenwei ignored him and went straight to the kitchen to get busy.

"The psychological compensation will be settled in the form of food compensation!" Burbo was a straightforward person, and he sat down at the table to show that he was just there to freeload.

There was nothing he could do; he was already tired of the school's food, having eaten and drunk for free. He had never tried Lorenve's cooking before, and had no idea where she had learned it from.

Kulala, who respected his teacher, served tea and water and treated Burbo very attentively.

Being treated with such respect by the princess, Bulbo naturally had no temper. He even reminded Kurara, "The most popular girl in the academy right now is Lorenve. Kurara, you should keep an eye on her. I don't know how many scheming girls have their eyes on her."

"What's so good about her?" Kurala was still a little shy and unwilling to admit it in front of her mentor.

Kurara's attentive service to her mentor stemmed largely from her sense that Bulpo was genuinely dedicated to teaching. Thinking back to her mentor Maggie, she hadn't felt much difference then, but the contrast was stark.

I wonder what Maggie can do in the Fate Empire. Is she really going to sell intelligence? How foolish of her. Does she think she can get any favors from a traitor who has defected to the past? Kurara pondered in her mind with the political acumen of a princess.

Even if Lorenve turned out to be a blessing in disguise—a blessing that Kurara didn't like—the intention to harm Lorenve was undeniable. Whether it was an individual or a nation, Kurara was always looking for an opportunity to deal with her. It was only out of consideration for their past mentorship that Kurara wouldn't pursue her all the way to the Fate Empire.

Speaking of mentors, Kurara couldn't help but admire Bulpo's current level. His guidance was far superior to that of Maggie! In less than a month, he had broken through to the Great Knight level, a level of guidance that Maggie couldn't have achieved before.

The meal was served, consisting of eight dishes.

Meilan cheered.

Kurara looked at Lorenwei and nodded with a smile.

She knew this was a dinner party hosted by Lorenwei to welcome her back.

"Where's my dish? You promised there would be a dish that only I could enjoy," Burbo interrupted.

"Wait here." Lorenwei rolled her eyes at him, picked up a plate, and went out.

She returned quickly with a small piece of meat on her plate, about two or three bites' worth of chicken.

"It looks weird," Burbo asked skeptically. "Can this thing be eaten?"

"Do you dare to eat it?" Lorenwei snorted.

Lorenvi was furious at being threatened! "You just wait, Bourb!"

Bourb immediately picked up his knife and fork: "Oh, the meat is a bit tough, but the sauce tastes good."

The piece of meat wasn't big, and he ate it quickly.

Everyone began to eat.

With Boulbo around, the chaotic scene at the dining table never reappeared.

After dinner, Burbo was still a little hungry, but he was too full and could only rub his stomach and lean back in his chair, not at all like a mentor.

"I'm so full, my stomach feels like it's going to explode. I can't compare to young people." Burbo grumbled, feeling like he had eaten the second most, yet he was still stuffed.

He had noticed long ago that Meilan ate much more than him, but how could such a small girl's body hold so much food?

Based on past experience, this would most likely be due to a curse from a starving ghost or possession by an evil spirit. But after carefully sensing it just now, there were no traces of related skills. This is very strange. Could it be a special talent? Does she have an extraordinary ability to eat?

Watching Lorenwei and the other girls clearing the table, Bulbo said, "Lorenwei, what kind of girls are around you? Kurara is a girl with the talent of a holy knight who was delayed, and now there's another one who can eat a lot? She's the type who can eat without getting fat or sick. I wonder how many girls are envious."

Upon hearing this, Meilan's heart skipped a beat. She knew that this Bulbo was no ordinary person, and it would be troublesome if he discovered her identity.

Lorenwei, also thinking the same thing, covered for Meilan, saying, "Meilan is a foodie. Her family was poor when she was young, and she's finally recovered her health recently. Plus, she has the talent of a boxer and martial artist, so it's normal for her to eat more."

Although Bulbo paid attention, he didn't think much of it and quickly shifted his attention: "Hmm, and there's also Sylph. Her talent for archery is amazing. I'll recommend the best archery teacher in the academy. I've been thinking about having a professional teach her before, to see just how fast she can improve."

Nature is my teacher; the wind guides the direction of my arrows. Sylph wanted to answer that way, but she held back, feigning delight, "Then I must have a teacher too?"

Bourb hesitated for a moment: "This..."

“No, they’re not the right people for you. Sylph’s talent is beyond their ability to guide. Elves have their own path, and humans have theirs,” Lorenwei interjected.

Hearing Lorenve say this, Sylph couldn't help but look at Lorenve with newfound respect, her eyes sparkling. She really understands me; what she said was almost exactly what she had been thinking.
