Reincarnated as a Son of the Sword Saint and the Sage

A few days later, the day for the new school year had come. Early in the morning, in my own room at the dormitories, I was standing in front of the body mirror looking at myself in my school uniform, striking different poses to see every angle of it. The uniform consisted of black slacks with a black blazer over a white long-sleeved shirt and was adorned with some accents on it, like this hunter green necktie, indicating that I was a first-year student. My sister, who was in second year, wore a burgundy red one while the seniors had navy-blue neckties hanging on their necks. I am standing five feet nine inches now, growing two inches since last fall. My height might have been average in my previous world, but I am considerably taller than average male height. "I am really a student now... It's been so long since I became one; I missed it though." Now that I thought about it, I lost my life in my previous life with my uniform still on. I even wore it in the afterlife while meeting Goddess Prima. That research that my groupmates had been working on day and night was a blessing in disguise, so that was why I was able to reincarnate in this new world. "Thank you so much, my goddess." Showing my gratitude to the goddess, I clasped my hands over my chest and thanked her for the nth time already. Let me also not forget to visit the church and donate at the end of the day. ◆◇◆◇◆◇

On the day of the entrance ceremony, all students, new and old, gathered in the academy's giant auditorium. At the moment, the ceremony was yet to start, the students were on their way to their spots, and the auditorium was filling gradually. Obviously, my sister and I did not sit together as we were in different years. Regardless of our years, we could not always stick together publicly, even if we wanted to. There was nothing wrong with siblings getting close, but there were limits to the things we could do and how physically close we could get. If we cling to each other too close all the time, people might get weird ideas about us. Since we just became royals ourselves, we must be careful about how we interact in public, as we have images to uphold and dirty secrets to protect. "..." While waiting for the ceremony to start with crossed arms, students were passing by my vision as they were looking out for their respective seats. Some students stopped by to greet me and make acquaintances. After all, making a connection with a member of a royal family was greatly beneficial, even for nobles. "Hello there, it's been so long." As I was politely interacting with other students, someone that I was familiar with stopped in front of me and greeted me while pushing his glasses. He was a second-year student with dark fuchsia pink hair. He was Alexander of Arcenciel County, and he seemed to be with someone else who seemed to be a student. "Oh, hello, Alexander. Yeah, it's been so long. Long time, no see." I stood from my seat and then shook hands with him. "I am sorry for not greeting you last summer." "Nah, it's fine. Don't bother." "Well, I heard many things about your family recently. Your family seemed to discover a dungeon that is rumored to be larger than the Imperial Dungeon and even created a country." "You heard that much, huh?" "I also heard that you became a prince yourself, and you already inherited this new domain called Lavender Marquisate before even graduating from the academy. Should I start addressing you, His Highness?" "Please don't, and call me by my name, Raphael, like you always do. Moreover, we are the students of the academy, so we should treat everyone equally." "Sigh. You have a point. If you insist, let me call you Raphael again, Raphael."

"That is greatly appreciated." After solving the matter, I shifted my attention to someone. "Well then, you seem to have someone with you. Can you introduce me to this lady?" "Of course, Raphael. As you might guess, this is my little sister. Her name is Iris. Like you, she just started attending the academy. Introduce yourself, Iris." "Good morning. My name is Iris Arcenciel," she said as she took an elegant bow. "It is nice to finally meet you, His Highness Raphael Raevender."

"Well, you can drop His Highness; there is no need to be so formal with me. But anyways, it is a pleasure meeting you, Miss Iris," I said, taking a bow. "My name is Raphael Raevender, first prince of the Queendom of Raevender and the marquis of the Lavender Marquisate." "If you say so... Raphael, you can also address me by my name." Iris Arcenciel, Alexander's little sister, was a fifteen-year-old young woman with long, silky, pink straight hair and turquoise gazes. She was standing at average height, and she had a fair complexion. Above all, Iris possessed a body with nice proportions, and I could say that she had the body type of Sophia. She was emitting a gentle aura, and she seemed to be a laid-back type of person. But don't be fooled by her appearance. From what I had heard, Iris seemed to be more proficient with magic than her older brother in terms of both sheer power and innate talent. Other than that, there was something about her that bothered me: her stats. Normally, humans gain around an average of 60 to 80 per level up, and it could even reach 100 with intensive training. But in the case of Iris, her stats averaged more or less one hundred twenty per level. Excluding Mom and Mother, who were High Humans, only my sister and I had done such a feat. But I could not just draw a conclusion on my own. I did not know Iris yet, so I did not have a reason to question how she did that. "Once again, I am glad to see you again, Raphael, but I have to go. And since we don't know what our sections are until the ceremony is done, as my friend, can my sister sit next to you?"

"Well, if she doesn't mind, I don't mind either." "I don't mind, Raphael." "That settles then. I will leave my sister in your care, Raphael. See you later." After that, Alexander walked away, and proceeded to the sophomores' seats in the middle, leaving Iris and I behind. Once I removed my eyes from his back, I came eye to eye with Iris. I smiled at her, and then she smiled back with more radiance. (Ack—!? She's so dazzling!) Since I really did not have something that I wanted to talk about with her right now, I proceeded to take Alexander's request. "Well, let's take seats, I guess?" "Certainly." Roughly half an hour later, the ceremony finally started. But it actually caught me off guard when the principal on the mic called me out to give a speech to the students because it was said that I was the most promising student among the rookies. I could not make a speech on the spot, so I used A.I. to create a speech for me.
