I became the youngest C-rank adventurer. And even after paying 20 million for entrance and tuition fees, I will still have plenty of savings. It’s thanks to that pedestal that I was able to make so much money. It can be said that my life as an adventurer is quite successful.
To begin with, I didn’t intend to raise my rank to C. But when the Orc Slayer achievement pop-up in my guild card, pressure from the authorities intensified. Also, master was pushing me for becoming the youngest C ranker. So when I took an escort and subdue thieves request at the age of 14 years old, I ranked up.
Also, my level is 37. Comparing to the game, it is a level where you can win the final battle with Anastasia, who succumb to darkness.
So far, my swordsmanship didn’t play any role in battle. But the sword training I asked from master was indispensable. Thanks to that, I managed to pass the entrance examination for swordsmanship, even though I couldn’t beat the examiner. Needless to say, I passed the magic test. If anything, it was harder to adjust my strength so that I wouldn’t stand out too much.
By the way, I use the 【Concealment】skill to hide all of my skills and blessings except 【Wind Magic】. Given that, If a student with so many skills enrols in school, then he/she will definitely get involved in some trouble.
The fact that I shouldn’t stand out until the villain daughter condemnation event is very important. By that time, the only things that will be different from the original should be the circumstances related to the 『Scroll of Appraisal』, and a mob character, i.e. me getting mixed with the school environment.
All I need to do is, let the events proceed as much as possible according to the game, and stop the condemnation event, which in turn will stop the villain daughter Anastasia from succumbing to darkness. Doing that will save me, my mother, my master, Monica-san, my seniors, and additionally, all the people who live in the royal capital.
Let’s do it!

And like that, the season where the Sakura petals danced in the air came. I finally got enrolled in the royal high school- the stage of the otome game.
I pass through the gates of the Royal High School wearing a brand new uniform with a blazer. From there, I head to the auditorium, which is the venue for the entrance ceremony.
At the entrance of the auditorium, the results of the entrance examination are posted in order from top to bottom. The student’s classification is also written.
1st place Anastasia Clynel von Ramslett (Noble) 2nd place Allen (special)
3rd place Amy von Brayes (Noble) 4th place Markus von Beinz (Noble) 5th place Claude Justine de Westerdale (Noble) 6th place Oscar von Wimlet (Noble) 7th place Margaret von Altomund (Noble) ・ ・ ・ 11th place Karlheinz Bartille von Centraren (Noble) ・ ・ ・ 21st place Leonardo von Jukes (Noble)
22nd place Vandaren von Ceben (Noble) 23rd place Heide Marie Asmus (general) 24th place Isabella von Luinberg (Noble) ・ ・
39th place Glen Weitberg (general)
It seems, this year they are accepting a total of 39 students. The parentheses after the name seem to indicate the type of examination. (Noble) is for an aristocrat, (Special) is for a scholarship student, and (General) is for general. By the way, being a scholarship student only gives the benefit of exemption from the written examination, no other support such as exemption from tuition fees are given.
And for some reason, I ended up in class A. I didn’t want to get involved in the event, so I would have preferred class B, but …
Well, it can’t be helped. In class A, everyone except me is of course aristocrats. Even in class B, there are only 3 commoner students.
I sat on the back corner seat of class A so that I don’t stand out.
Anyway, I’m not allowed to start a conversation with my classmates. According to what I learned in the etiquette class before enrollment, it is profane to start talking to aristocrats as a commoner.
In other words, it seems that it is forbidden to speak until you’re asked from the other side. And even if you talk to him/her once, you are not allowed to talk to him/her if the other side does not allow you.
I don’t want to stand out from the beginning, so this is fine. But I enrolled with normal expectations, So it’s quite shocking that from the start I’ll be lonely.
After waiting for a while, all at once, the students came in.
Anastasia came in with her entourage. As expected of her ridiculous beauty. Unlike an ordinary person like me, there is an elegant and inaccessible aura around her. Even though she is such a beauty, she looks like a statue because of her expressionlessness.
Anastasia glanced at me, but seemingly uninterested she sat down in the front row.
Then, His Imperial Highness Prince Karl Heinz comes in. The remaining four capture target are also here in full force. All of them are releasing a terrible handsome aura.
If it was a girl who had played the game, she would have gone squeaky in this place, but when I see them, I get sick.
In-game, I had to increase their interest. As I don’t have that kind of hobby, I suffered a lot of mental damage.
They also glanced at me and sat next to Anastasia.
Then came Amy, the heroine with the characteristic pink hair. She was a baron’s daughter and have been raised as a commoner until just a few months ago.
When I glanced at her, she came closer to me and called out with a sweet voice like sugar.
“Good morning. I’m, Amy von Brayes. You’re the Scholarship student, Allen-san, right? Nice to meet you.”
Impossible1! At this entrance ceremony, the heroine should have been thrilled to see the crown prince.
“Nice to meet you, Amy-sama. I’m Allen, commoner Allen. Be Kind to me.”
I pretend to be calm and answered her.
“Allen-san, you got a perfect score in all subject and graduated by skipping class at the age of 11, right? At that time, I was a commoner and attended the same school, That’s why I remember you being the hot topic in gossips.”
Amy looks up at me with a slight blush and glittering eyes.
cu-cute.
As expected of the heroine of an Otome Game. No wonder that the capture targets fall for this cuteness.
However, in the game, did the character spoke in such a sweet and stupid way?
Anyway, my school life started with a feeling of turmoil from the beginning.
