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

Sally listened with wide eyes.

Lorenwei: "If I told you you could choose one of these paths, which one would you choose?"

"I...I choose?"

“Yes. Trust me, I said you can choose!” Lorenwei said solemnly.

“I, I…” Sally remained silent for a long time.

She was ridiculed when registering for the academy, questioned after her mother said she was the daughter of a sword saint, ostracized in her class and academy, and faced even more severe attacks and slander after becoming Lorenwei's teammate...

Crystalline tears slid down Sally's cheeks.

She didn't say her choice for a long time.

"I understand, I know your choice."

Lorenwei turned and left, leaving behind a dashing silhouette and three sentences carried by the wind:

"There is a one in ten thousand chance that a black-haired sword saint hero will have a genetic mutation that results in a golden-haired offspring!"

"The relic may not have been bought by the fortune teller!"

"A person who lies all the time may have even one true statement taken as a lie..."

Sally stared blankly as Lorenwei walked away.

Lorenwei's expression was resolute, and her steps were firm.

Is Sally insecure?

Then let your inferiority complex vanish!

I, Lorenwei, keep my word.

They say Sally is the daughter of the Sword Saint...

She definitely is!

********************************

The principal's office was disturbed again.

Bordonna ignored Lorenwei as she entered the office, still buried in her work reviewing documents: "I've said before, I'm not responsible for providing emotional support to employees who ask for leave on their first day back. What are you calling me here for?"

Lorenwei slammed her hands on the table: "I'm going to cause trouble!"

“…” Bordonna stopped writing and looked up at Lorenwei, who was staring at her with a serious expression.

Lorenwei: "Really."

How big of a fuss is it?

"You just need to send in the actors to stir things up, and I'll be the unsung hero behind the scenes. Leading lady: Sally!"

What's all the commotion about?

"The Sword Saint Hero has a daughter!"

"what?"

"I've discovered a secret! The fortune teller's daughter, Sally, is actually the child of the Sword Saint Hero!"

Bordonna scoffed, "I don't believe you! I examined Sally myself and couldn't see any signs of a hero's bloodline! Besides, her mother's description of the hero was vague and obviously a lie!"

"Would I make money by lying to you?"

What conclusive evidence do you have?

A mysterious smile appeared on Lorenwei's lips: "Wouldn't it be boring to only show you the evidence?"

"...What kind of role do you want me to arrange?"

"Trouble with Sally!"

"..."

"There's going to be a show!"

"...Deal! Tell me the details, and I'll make the arrangements!"

"...Sister Bordonna, you have a twisted sense of humor!"

Bordonna tossed her hair, her alluring eyes narrowing slightly: "Do you know how boring it is to be a school principal all the time? If you can give me some fun, of course I'll support you!"

Lorenwei patted her flat chest and assured her, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, the academy will never be peaceful!"

"As the headmaster, thank you..."

Chapter 253 Lorenve's Midnight Operation; Sylph's Dawn Assassination?

Ugh! I've been meddling in other people's business again!

On her way back, Lorenwei would occasionally tap her head, regretting that she had told Sally about the Sword Saint's bloodline.

What does Sally have to do with me? Although I'm the kind of person who can't stand not making a fuss, I'm not one to meddle in other people's business. Sally's business is none of my concern!

Lorenwei walked along, tapping her head. Some students on the roadside stared at her, speechless with astonishment.

So cute!

"Lorenwei's head-tapping gesture was so cute," one girl exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh dear, really? What is she regretting? And what is she troubled by?"

"She's like a cute little sister, someone you want to take care of."

One girl couldn't help but clench her fists, feeling the overwhelming cuteness: "Look at her little fists tapping her head, and her ahoge (cowlick) is swaying back and forth, I want to call her 'little cutie'~"

The boys' discussions weren't nearly as overly sentimental.

"Who says Lorenwei is fickle? My girlfriend isn't as cute as her."

"Yes, yes, if she snuggles into my arms and acts all cute, I'll go limp right away."

"Hmph, you're too weak. If it were me, my whole body would be soft except for one hard spot!"

"I'll beat you to death! How dare you think that way about Lorenwei?"

"Pah, don't tell me you haven't thought that way."

"At least I won't say it."

As Lorenwei walked back, she didn't realize that she had attracted countless eyes.

Her regret had turned into worry.

"Oh no, I forgot to tell her she joined the team. How am I going to explain this to her when I get back?" Following the rules, Lorenwei passed through the protective barrier and walked to the door of the villa, hesitating a bit before knocking.

"Why aren't you going inside and spacing out?" Meilan's voice came from the side.

And there's the sound of the Slime King making a "pooh pooh" sound.

Lorenwei turned her head and saw that it was Melanie teasing the Slime King in the yard.

"Haha, I didn't complete my mission."

Meilan thought for a moment: "Sariel joining the team? You're so nervous about it?"

"Yes."

“…” Meilan tilted her head and thought for a moment, “There was a person who always thought that his daily food intake was only three steamed buns. But one day, after he had finished eating three steamed buns, someone brought him a steamed bun with meat filling.”

"I understand... but I'm just afraid of overeating!" Lorenwei said with a mournful face.

"It seems like the only one who doesn't mind the number of people in her harem is Melanie," Lorenwei remarked. "She truly deserves to be my most admired red-haired wife; from the very beginning, I felt she was a capable and thrifty wife."

Although Sylph and Kurara have finally stopped fighting, that's only because they have a foundation of past affection. Getting them to accept another woman would be an impossible task.

"Haha, even if you're full, you can have one more. Just... eat slowly!" Meilan laughed. "If you feel you've eaten too much, then get some exercise."

"Wow, Meilan, you've even started telling these kinds of dirty jokes?"

"Dirty jokes? What?"

"It's just a little bit colorful."

"???"

Uh, maybe I'm overthinking it? Lorenwei scratched her head and gave an awkward laugh.

However, Meilan didn't take it seriously and continued playing with the Slime King.

Lorenwei glanced at the Slime King. Hmm? Why does the Slime King seem to have grown quite a bit bigger than before?

The original Slime King was a soft, bouncy pink sphere about the height of two people. Now it's noticeably larger.

Perhaps Meilan was being fed too much, and didn't need to find food herself; her life as a domesticated animal had become too comfortable? Lorenwei didn't take it seriously.

She hadn't thought of it for a moment.

This is how the pet's level increases.

The Slime King, originally an A-rank creature, has now firmly established itself at the A+ rank and could potentially break through to the S rank at any time.

Next, if the Slime King develops a gold border, it will be considered to have entered S-class, and all its abilities will be greatly enhanced.

The reason, of course, is that the Master's skill level has improved.

Melan's high-magic anthropomorphism is a secret technique that is gradually developed and then unleashed. However, the influence of the Master's continuously accumulated abilities on the summoned creatures is still uncontrollably manifested.

Lorenwei and the others saw that Meilan was playing with the Slime King, but some of the training methods of high-level demons were beyond human comprehension.

Just like human infants who develop body control through play in their early years, the demon race's physical talents also blossomed during her constant activities.

Meilan's arcane power hasn't even been fully unleashed yet, but the level of the Slime King has already been uncontrollably displayed, making her a very promising prospect.

Lorenwei slapped her forehead: "Ah, Meilan, can you buy some groceries for me?"

To make amends, the stomach is closest to the heart. To appease the discontented fiancées, simply shut them up. If you do it well, they won't dwell on minor issues.

Of course, this applies to a fiancée. If it were a wife, gagging wouldn't be the solution, but the principle is the same.

"Sure, but we're out of coins." Meilan was very straightforward.

“Okay, I’ll give you cash. You’ll have to go to that general store that only accepts cash. They do sell raw ingredients there. What I need is…” Lorenwei said, indicating the ingredients she wanted for the dish.
