I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 5 Magic Match: Second Round 1
Previous story:
Their dinner ended with akward. Eva decides to go and continue her shopping activities. But suddenly Denis stops him and invites him to speak privately. Denis says straight away that he was carrying out a mission in the Magic City. He did not give details of his mission. Eva was not too interested.
Eva wants to end their conversation, but Denis stops her again by pulling her hand and saying that he will protect her. This made Eva even more confused. It was even more confusing because Denis immediately ran away after that.
Denis fled the crowd. Jensen and Reina approached him. At that time Reina firmly said that she would help Denis. But he made a mistake that enraged Denis. Even after this Reina will make sure everything is okay and she will still help Denis mission.

The next day...
Finally, the awaited day arrived. Today the second round of matches will begin. Me and the Magic Tower Group immediately headed for the hall to enter the Magic Domain. This time from the Magic Tower there were sixteen people who would come along. It was six disciples and ten Dean. Dean Wason walked ahead to lead the line. Then followed by nine other Dean. Six disciples lined up in the rear row.
When we arrived at the hall we saw that the atmosphere was more crowded than usual. In fact some organizations have 20-30 people in their group.
I glanced at the Wandering Community, but could not see Denis and Jensen. Maybe the two were hiding between the lines. Then I looked to the Magic Soul Team. Reina was there, even she was given a pretty front row position. Sayn was also with her group. I did not expect that almost all of the main characters were gathered in this place. Though this is an event owned by Robert when viewed from the point of view of the novel.
The Magic City elder who was usually a guide appeared and climbed onto the podium in the middle of the hall.
"Alright, the Magic Domain will be opened soon." He started to open the conversation. As the elder spoke, the atmosphere of the hall instantly became silent. "I've explained before that your order of entry is based on the rankings you obtained from the first round. The first-ranked group would enter first, then the ranked group below every thirty minutes. You guys only have four hours in the Magic Domain before returning. But even if it's only four hours, you can enter a space where you spend a few days in the domain, but still four hours in the real world. After four hours, the Magic Domain will close and you will be teleported back to the real world. There's one more important thing I'm going to tell you. When you enter, you will be teleported separately from your team. So beware. This time, if you get hurt and die, you will not lose points, but lose your lives. This is a real fight. And also the treasure you get from the Magic Domain depends on your luck. I hope you guys have good luck."
He stared at the Magic Tower group. "You can come in" he said.
Dean Wason took out the token. Suddenly the token glowed, we already wanted to be teleported into the domain. I prepared myself, but I felt someone clasping my hand tightly. It was Robert!
"We're going to go in together" Robert said as he strengthened his grip.
SHUUU! The group of Magic Towers began to vanish one by one from the hall. There were only three other groups waiting for their turn.

My gaze became blurred for a moment, then the scene in front of me changed. I saw my right hand. I thought I would teleport in the same place as Robert. But it turned out wrong. The person who held my hand vanished. Leave myself in this place.
I see my surroundings. Lots of bushes and trees. The grove? Did I teleport to the forest again?
But this forest I saw was very strange. The bushes around him were full of thorns. The tree had not a single leaf, only large branches wrapped around each other.
Honestly, I'm very confused. This place is so weird. Where can I find treasure? They didn't even give me a map. Hmh! What the fuck. Everything really depends on luck and survival ability right now.
I walked through the strange forest with a pouting face. I saw nothing at all, just some strange, useless plants. I've been around for a long time. Even the sky has darkened, indicating that the night is coming. I don't know how much time has passed in the real world. But I've been around this place for eight hours!
"Are you hungry?" my many.
She shook her head. Then sit down and shut up.
SHUU~
The atmosphere was very quiet, I only heard the sound of a gentle breeze whirling in front of us.
"What's going on? You are very strange." I said in surprise as I lifted Rexus from my head and carried him. My eyes met the egg.
"This place is no stranger" said Rexus.
"Eh?"
"I feel like I've been to this place before. I don't know why I feel uncomfortable like this. It was very sad.I wanted to cry.." said Rexus lirih.
I scrunched my forehead. Then I remembered something! The dream I saw at the time! Dream when the humans and the magical beasts fight!
"Are they fighting around here?" I muttered not to believe.
I got back up and continued exploring. I remember the dream I saw. Dark clouds, dark and barren land. After walking through the forest until night, we began to come out of the forest and arrive at a place that is not foreign. Yep! This is the place in the dream. Barren land, dark night sky, black dead land without a single plant. This is that place.
I noticed the Rexus I was carrying in my sling. The boy remained silent until he finally jumped out of my hand. Rexus started running. I was quite surprised and tried to stop him.
"Rexus, where are you going?" I cried out in panic while chasing that little egg.
Rexus continued to run forward with his little legs. Then he stopped in the middle of that barren land. And began to claw at the ground beneath him with his little legs.
"Rexus, what are you doing?" I picked it up and put the little thing on my shoulder.
"Under..under!" said panic.
"OK, okay, relax. You won't be able to scratch it with your little foot. I'll help you" I said. I swiftly used the earth element and made a sizable crack of the ground.
I put Rexus next to the big crack hole and peeked down.
"What's that?" I muttered confused while frowning. I saw a pile of black and very large. But all of that is unclear because it is too dark.
NAH! I stomped my feet and made a bigger crack. Then I made fireballs and threw them in the hole. I started to see and couldn't believe what I was seeing right now. A giant pile of black-colored bones was buried below.
