"There will be later," said Louis.

The bishop wanted to inquire more about Amelia, but hearing what Louis said, he held back and decided to chat with her later. The bishop was also aware they would give up Amelia to the church since her Title would reach the peak of its class.

Therefore, he remained quiet and patient.

"Thank you, Amelia." Anbu smiled brightly. "I appreciate it."

Amelia nodded but still lowered her head. Anbu was aware that if he said something along the lines of Please stop crying, then the girl would naturally weep.

It was now the turn of a teenage boy with red hair. In terms of height, he was slightly short, the same height as Amelia, but he was only the neck level of the Rock. Staring at his face, it didn't take an idiot to understand he had quite an explosive temper.

In spite of that, he seemed tamed and obedient. On his side was a teenage girl with long blue hair reaching up to her waist and the same height as his. It also didn't take an idiot to relate the blue-hair girl to the red-hair boy sharing a similar bloodline, and if Anbu wasn't wrong, they should be siblings, or maybe even twins!

The blue-haired girl has a different temperament, she seemed calm and collected, and it should be her attitude to keep her brother at bay. Staring at them, Anbu feels complicated. For a sibling to awaken the same class's title was not uncommon, but it was only surprising they awakened a Legendary Class Title.

Surprising should be an understatement, for he was flabbergasted.

Perceiving it was now their turn, the blue-haired girl said coldly, "I'm Ashley, and I received the Legendary Class Title, Queen of Frost."

Ashley, a name sounds like a kind-hearted girl, but it greatly contradicts the blue-haired girl's attitude. But it was not why Anbu and the other nobles were stunned, but because of her Title.

"Queen of Frost…" mumbled Louis.

No one knew who muttered it as it almost sounded like a whisper, but it helped them regain their clarity.

The Rock Title, the Guardian, considerably surprised them and felt elated since the Title alone indicated he could protect the Empire in the future. But thinking it was a Legendary Class Title, they then thought it shouldn't be that much surprising.

Although the Saintess also greatly surprised them, they were aware she didn't belong to the Empire since the church would naturally want her as a Saintess in the future...

By then, once the Saintess reached the peak of her Class, she could even surpass the Pope, and the Church's reputation would also rise alongside her.

It had been a long time since the Saintess of the Church did not have a Saintess Title, but because they were trained, only then were they chosen by the Church and the people as a Saintess.

A Saintess is the highest position in the Church, and it equaled the Pope. They represented the Goddess itself, so only a woman had the qualification to acquire it.

Therefore the Anbu and the nobles would naturally let the Church acquire the Saintess, and they were aware the Emperor had no qualms against it. It wasn't like the relations between the Empire and the Church weren't strong.

But, Queen of Frost was not the case. It was crucial information to acquire the Title. After all, they instantly linked it to the Emperor.

The Emperor, the descendant of the supreme magus, had awakened the Legendary Class Title, King of Fire.

He was the sixth generation Emperor, and to preserve their bloodline and assure there would be no Rare-Class below Emperor in the future generation, they have the tradition of marrying a woman with a Legendary Class Title.

The supreme magus, the first emperor, was very strict with this rule, and a crown prince marrying a Legendary Class Title below was a great taboo, the consequence was also dire.

Although the current Emperor already has an Empress, who said he couldn't have a concubine?

He had thousands of concubines and tens of thousands of sons and daughters. Yet despite the staggering amount of offspring, none of them awakened a Legendary Class Title.

According to the law stated from the supreme magus book of law applied solely to the future Emperor, if the Emperor felt like his life was nearing the end but no worthy heir amongst his offspring, the Emperor would have to choose a prodigy outside of his bloodline.

And then marry him among the daughters of the Emperor to preserve their bloodline.

There had been no records of past Emperors resorting to such a method, but the current Emperor was facing a no worthy heir problem. The Empress, who naturally had a Legendary Class Title, when married to the Emperor, distressingly discovered she couldn't carry a child.

It was then an Imperial Doctor who stated the Empress couldn't bear a child until she reached an S-rank. Who would have thought there was such a case? The previous Emperor has successfully produced offspring despite their Empress not reaching the S-rank.

Reaching S-Rank was really difficult despite the potential of their Class.

Fifty years passed, but the Empress's rank remained the same, A rank, even though she had a Legendary Class Title. Therefore, the Emperor had been depressed to find no heir, but… The Queen of Frost appeared.

The Imperial Advisor was silent for a while, waiting for instruction for the Emperor until the red-haired boy introduced himself.

"My name is Ashton Ishildur, and I awakened the Legendary Class title, King of Fire."

Anbu and the nobles were shocked, even Louis was taken aback.

'What a coincidence!'

Their reactions did not gain a lot of attention from the other students, for they marveled at the Title of Ashton, causing the latter to feel extremely proud. But sadly, his sister smacked his head, clutching his head throbbing from pain, and his face contorted in agony.

"There's no reason to say our last name. That will be buried since we can't see our family now. In the future, avoid doing stupid things," said Ashley in a cold voice, appearing indifferent to her vicious action.

Ashton gritted his teeth, forcing himself not to argue lest he incurred his sister's wrath again. In their short exchange, The Imperial Advisor finally concluded to converse with the Emperor later.

He was aware of the law of the supreme magus and the Emperor's problem. Hence he was shocked and instantly believed the Emperor would acquire Ashely as his concubine.

But Ashton stated his title, and it also indicated he could be a worthy heir for the Emperor, that is if the Emperor decides. The Imperial Advisor was aware of the probability of rejection from the Queen of Frost, therefore there was a possibility of making Ashton an heir.

No matter what, such a serious and important matter should be decided by the Emperor himself; he was already out of it; he was only an advisor.

Finally, it was now the Mythical Class turn…
