Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System - Chapter 149.1: Arriving At The Academy Part 1

"A good thing?" I asked. I was not understanding why having a title now made much of a difference.

"Because you are now an official noble of your own house. You're Baroness Cyrilia, a noble with two people in your noble family. Sally and Sophie. Sophie is under your care. Father had given you guardianship rights over her. This basically makes her an adopted daughter. While I know this is not the case but it is how it will be looked at by other nobles." Adel explained. But her explanation did make a little sense. This would make Sophie a daughter of a low ranking noble which was much better than a commoner. I actually did not know how I felt about this. Would Sophie need to call me Mother now? No. No! NO! No, no! Okay, that thought is out of mind, out of sight.

Anyway, I can see this being good for us. And since Sally is my guard, she is under my last name as well. "I see… I guess this is a good thing. "

"Mmm… Also, you have the ranking of provisional knight. Which gives you a bit more standing as those of knight families with a noble title are more respected than a normal knight. I actually think you will be very popular with both boys and girls once you enter the academy. Which means I will have my work cut out for me." Hearing Adel's last words made me purse my lips. I wonder if she is going to turn into a cat again and attack everyone around her.

"Adel, no bullying people just because they talk to me." I had to make this clear now.

"But…." Adel gave me an aggrieved look.

"No! Bad Adel!" I was joking as I said this, but I made sure I said it in a serious tone.

"I'm not a dog!" Adel yelled out with her cheeks puffed out.

"No, you are a cat."

"You two really do get along like sisters." Lance said with a smile.

"No one asked you to talk, Lance. Go jump out the window and flap your arms. I wanna see if you can fly."

"Adel, we are ten stories up in the castle tower! I would die! Unlike Faith, I can't fly!" Lance yelled out.

"You won't know until you try, so shoo, shoo!" Adel really cracked me up when she teased Lance. They may not seem it, but they really do get along well.

In the end, the castle lockdown ended around evening, and we were finally able to go home. When I arrived, Sei reported that everything went smoothly and no one tried to harm Sophie in any way. This made me feel relieved.

After storing the items she brought me in my spatial storage for use with the defensive systems, I finally could relax. Tomorrow was the day that would be my start at the academy. In six months time, so many things have happened it has been quite insane. I never thought I would end up experiencing so many different things.

In my past life, I grew up in my family, spent my days reading and studying while talking while spending my days in school complaining to my best friend Jen about not having enough time to read. I had loving parents and a really good life, but it all ended when I was hit by that truck.

In this new life, I was reborn and was given a very loving family who cared for me no matter how I looked. I fought in a war and commanded an army of thousands. I killed so many people as if it was nothing. I met the leaders of the spirits for the Gravos Kingdom and made friends with little Bell. I met Adel, Sophie, Gesel, and many more. And now, six months later, here I am on the brink of entering the academy living in a fancy house with a new fancy title added to my name. I really wonder what the next six months will bring….

The next morning I wore my leather armor and fastened my sword to my side. Sophie was next to me in her own armor along with Adel and Sally. Lance and Sei were also getting ready as well. All five of us were about to climb aboard the carriage and make our way to the Royal Magic Academy.

In books of my past life, the Academy arc was like the relationship arc. Like the otome games. There would be many more romance targets. Let's just hope none of them rear their ugly heads.

We all got into the same carriage. This was an actual royal carriage. Lance said we would be using it from this day forth. It was to help show that the kingdom was fully behind me and those who were under me. While I do not like the saying it as such as if Sophie and Sally were lower than me, but as I was the head of the household, this was how society saw it.

It took an hour to get to the academy. The towering gates soon came into view which already had a line of carriages waiting in line. Because the academy was a place where status did not matter, even Adel and Lance will be forced to wait in line along with me.

Luckily instead of taking the test alone like I thought I would many months ago, I would now have four others by my side. This eased my nerves a little, but I was still not sure what was to come. What the test will be on this year was beyond me. I just hoped it would not be too hard.

As our carriage came to a stop near the gate, all eyes turned on us. While I had expected this, I still felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by so many, being judged left and right. Sadly I felt more gazes filled with malice than I did anything else. What that malice was for I did not know. But I think it had a lot to do with the idiot prince at my side. Like why is he standing so close to me? Shoo! Shoo! Your fans want to kill me!
