I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 4. Kano Kingdom: Fake Sayn?
Previous Story:
Several people chosen by the headmaster formed a group to carry out escort missions in the Kano Kingdom. Eva was involved. Together with the other disciples he headed to the Kano kingdom accompanied by Robert as their guiding teacher. Finally they arrived at the Kingdom of Kano. It turned out that the Kingdom had a different system of government to the Kingdom of Well. So he was a little surprised because in his previous life he had never set foot in the Kingdom of Kano.
Eventually the group headed for the palace to meet the king and his daughter's son.

They finally arrived at the palace. Robert again showed the badge he had to the palace gatekeeper. Then one of the gatekeepers frantically entered the palace to report. A few minutes later, an old man came out with a big smile on his face.
"Welcome to the messengers from the Kingdom of Well" he said politely. He looked at Robert with a friendly smile. "Welcome master Robert. Sorry we couldn't prepare a welcoming ceremony for you"
"No problem sir" Robert's response was relaxed.
"Alright, introduce my name Hendrick. I am the prime minister of the Kingdom of Kano. The king is inside, please come in" Prime Minister Hendrick immediately turned around after introducing himself.
Robert looked at his students and gestured to follow them by nodding his head. Finally, they all walked into the palace.
I saw the atmosphere around the palace. Actually the structure of the building is not much different from the palace in the Kingdom of Well. It's just that the atmosphere seems not alive. I felt that this palace gave off a cold and desolate aura, very different from the palace of the Kingdom of Well which was always full of activity.
Finally, we arrived at the main palace hall. This hall is larger than the royal palace of Well. I looked left to look around. On the throne were two luxurious seats occupied by a middle-aged couple. I thought they were the king and queen of this land. Then on both sides stood the princes and princesses. Then the nobles gathered under the throne and formed groups on both the left and right sides.
I stared back at the place where the prince and princess were gathered. I tried to sharpen my vision to find Sayn. But I didn't find that guy at all. I even counted the number of princes. I don't think he can be there for something. There were thirteen princes! Then where's Sayn? Why didn't I see him at all?
Prime Minister Hendrick looked at the king and the queen and bowed. After that he shuffled to the left side and joined the other nobles.
The entourage of the Kingdom of Well walked forward. Robert took the lead and bowed in respect. Followed by the students.
After saluting, Robert started to smile. "His Majesty the King and Queen, we are the messengers of the King of Well."
The king responded by nodding. "Welcome hohoho" King Kano laughed as he occasionally stroked his long beard. King Kano turned his head turning his head to turn his son and daughter. "Include yourself. They'll escort you all the way to Well's kingdom"
The crown prince advanced first with confidence. "Did you know, my name is Gerd. I am the crown prince of this country"
After introducing himself, the crown prince immediately retreated into the ranks and the other princes started advancing.
"Include me Goro. I am the second prince in the country" explained the other prince.
Eventually, the princes and princesses began to introduce themselves one by one. Until finally, a short and thin boy came forward with his face down. His aura was very different from that of the other princes and princesses, who had a cheerful and confident aura. The aura of this prince looked gloomy. He looks like a sickly man.
"Include.I am a prince.ke....three....Sayn.." said the person in a soft and stammered tone so that everyone did not hear him clearly.
'What??!!' I screamed in my heart when I heard the boy's introduction.
She said she was Sayn? That's not possible! Sayn I found it's not short and skinny like that. Sayn I found it tall and handsome. Who is this guy?
I started thinking hard. There's no way that Sayn I met was a fake Sayn, because I know the story. But who is this weak boy before me? It was impossible for Sayn to change herself with magic, because their posture was different. But it was possible that he knew of the ancient spell....I'm sure there's something hidden here. Seeing that the royal families were not suspicious of his whereabouts, I'm sure they never knew Sayn at all.
"All messengers" said the king when his sons had introduced themselves. "They are the ones you have to protect. You can rest for a day because they need to get ready. I very much welcome your arrival. Enjoy your time here. You can shop or walk around the city. I won't forbid you" The king looked at the prime minister Hendrick. "Take them to the inn"
Prime Minister Hendrick nodded.
Robert smiled and bowed. "It is with noble pleasure"
"All kids, follow me. I will take you to the inn" the prime minister Hendrick said, staring at us.
"Good sir"
We saluted the king for the last time before we left the palace. Prime Minister Hendrick began to lead us through the palace.
"you can take a walk in the capital. I'll give you some list of places of recommendation. You can shop and look around" said Prime Minister Hendrick.
"Huwaa~ amazing~"
"I can't wait to go shopping, I hope there's good stuff"
"I want to see a gun"
"I want to find food"
"I want to see some nice dresses"
The students began to enthusiastically discuss their journey.
"He.ayo we walk together. I know some good places" Lilac said as she elbowed my arm.
Hmm. I don't really want to go around the capital. I can do it later. I'm more excited to find out what happened to Sayn! In an instant the plan of sneaking into the palace instantly formed in my mind. Yeah, that's right! I want to sneak into the palace of the princes and look for Sayn's palace!
"I'm sorry Lilac, I might not be able to come. I'll come with you tomorrow. Looks like I have to rest today. I'm not feeling well." I started looking for excuses and pretending to be sick.
"You okay?" lilac asked as she frowned in panic. He doesn't want anything dangerous to happen to Eva. If Duke Court receives news that Eva is ill in an enemy country, the problem could become very runaway for them.
"Don't exaggerate. I was just tired and sleepy. I didn't have time to sleep last night" I said trying to calm Lilac down.
"Oh, rest well Eva. Don'worry. Tomorrow I will lead you to a pleasant place. I'll survey the place today first"
"Thank you" I replied with a smile. She really is a nice and passionate girl.
We finally arrived at the inn. The place was not luxurious, but rather large and spacious. It seems to be an inn for guests visiting the kingdom, because that is the place is very spacious and has many rooms.
"We've arrived" Prime Minister Hendrick opened the dimensional space and took out a few keys according to our numbers. "Take this key" he threw it at each child. "This is your room key. Have a good rest"
After that, the man walked away.
I looked at the key in my hand and saw the number on the key. Uh! It is very similar to the hotel system apparently. I immediately looked for the whereabouts of my room and waltzed in.
When I entered his room, it wasn't bad. Pretty clean and pretty. Maybe because this place has been set up as a lodging place for nobles from other countries.
I started sitting on the bed. The feathers of this blanket are very soft and comfortable. It looks like it was made from a low-level magical beast.
"Well, now I have to wait until the kids are out. Then I'll explore this place" I smiled enthusiastically because I was really curious about this place I'd never been to.
