Selestine's (the MC) POV

I received a beautiful letter from my dream school called 'Centifolia Academy', which is commonly for nobles and royals who could afford the tuition. But the major factor that could accept a student is his magic.

For some reason, I have a large pool of mana and my type of magic is Light, which is one of the rarest after Dark and other deviant magic.

Also, I found it strange that my memories are only up to my eighth years of age. Okaasan and ottousan told me that I had amnesia so that's probably why.

I have a brother named Jansen, and he's quite playful. There's this one time when I was sleeping under the magnolia tree near the house, he threw a bowl of caterpillars on my face.

I was too traumatized that I had a phobia of it.

In a few days, I'm going to the capital to study in that prestigious academy. There's an unease in my heart lately whenever I hear about the academy that I'm so relieved I could go there.

Centifolia Academy, here I come!!

Maxentius' POV

It's been six years since her death and I still haven't moved on. My heart still aches whenever someone brings up about my 'dead' fiancèe and I'm planning to drown the whole world in rotten blood.

I've become an information guild master of Connu as my alias 'Aref Vaugn'. It's for the assurance that I might find an information about her.

Ottousama has gotten sick due to unknown reasons. Well, it's because me. Pretend you never knew about it.

Many nobles, especially those with the titles of viscount to marquis, speculated that it was me. They lacked evidence and it's known in the whole empire that I was powerless despite being the Crown Prince, so they dismissed that thought.

I'm the current Student Council President of Centifolia Academy, sixteen years old. Because I've already learned all that I needed to know being a royal, I only have to make connections as the future sun of Coelacanth.

I'm thanking Hestia-ojou everyday for helping me fend the crazy fangirls off. Speaking of her, Caedmon and she got engaged months after the supposed death of Sese-chan. I think it's to strengthen the bond between the two races.

I heard a group of students were gossiping as I walked passed them when I heard an interesting topic making my ears perked up.

"Oh, what's that I heard~?"

"Kaichou!!" I smiled at them. "It's just about a mudblood enrolling into our prestigious academy! A royal blood such as yourself not need to pay attention to the scum!"

"I never thought I could hear prejudice right to my face. Tell me or I'll make sure all of you get suspended~~"

"It's about a commoner with Light magic..."

What?

"She isn't an illegitimate child of a noble, but she can still use magic. Not just any normal magic, a rare magic!!"

That's impossible! I thought only nobles get the privilege of having the abilities to wield magic to their will? How the world's view will be changed with her appearance!

"Did you perhaps hear her name?"

"Yes Kaichou! I think it was Selestine, Selestine Villin!"

For some reason, I'm excited to see this person. Her name sounds like Sese-chan's name Seraphine...

Third Person POV

One of the students swallowed air when they saw their Student Council President getting interested in the new girl. Some of them had downcasted hearts while some are cheering their idol in their hearts.

'Oh my, His Imperial Highness is interested in the mudblood!! What a disgrace for the Imperial family!!'

'I can't belive he got interested in a commoner that is most likely a slut, when there's Hestia-sama!!'

'When the other girls hear about this, they might go on a rampage, pushing Kaichou to spill the beans!'

'I'll help you ward off your suitors, Your Imperial Highness!!'

'Is it really interesting that a commoner can wield Light magic? Doesn't it prove that she's a filthy illegitimate child?'

"I get it, I must be going!" Maxentius waved his hand goodbye and smiled like a gentle prince and took off.

'I need to do a background check on that girl!!'

"Kyaahh, Kaichou is finally in love!!" squealed a girl.

"I know, this commoner girl might be the one who could melt his frozen heart since his fiancée's presumed death!"

"But we can't have a commoner as the Empress! She could only be a concubine with her status..!"

"Hestia-sama can't be the Empress either, because she already declared that she isn't a bit interested to get the position! She is even engaged to the draconic Prime Minister's son!!"

"I saw a glimpse of Caedmon-sama, he was so handsome!!"

"Tell me more!!"

"His dark blue hair is like the cloudless night sky and his grey eyes shine like diamonds!! He's kyaa-worthy!"

While they were openly gossiping like chatterboxes, Hestia was listening intently and internally squealed.

'Omg, the Heroine of the OtoGe!! I cam't believe she's here already!

Selestine Villin is a commoner who can use Light magic, with auburn hair and emerald eyes, so she gets enrolled in the prestigious Centifolia Academy. There, she caught the interests of four capture targets.

The first is, well, Maxentius-ouji. They met at the first day of school and he fell in love at first sight. Since then, he stalks the Heroine wherever she goes and eliminates his rivals behind the scenes.

The second is Ronsard James Okeghem, the first son of Jevons Wyllis Okeghem, the General of the Crimson Imperial Knights. Ronsard-sama is the happy-go-lucky type, but he's a blockhead that the Heroine had a hard time tutoring him. The rival for him is Cherrilene Mellisse Augustin-ojou, daughter of a count, with pink hair and red eyes.

The third is Sigismund Krane Nereid, son of the Grand Chancellor. Sigismund-sama is the kuudere type, and it took me a long time to capture him. The rival for him is Liliana Cosette Petain-ojou, daughter of a marquis, with crimson hair and amethyst eyes.

The fourth is Chrysostom Damien Scheler, son of Emperor's aide. He is the tsundere type. He always blushes whenever he's with the Heroine and denies his feelings immediately. The rival for him is Genevieve Anne Avarille-ojou, a princess of a small kingdom.

But will Maxentius-ouji really fall for her?'
