I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 7 the Sayn Plan
Previous story:
Eva continued her classes at the Royal Academy, although the princes and princesses had already died classes to welcome guests.
After class, Eva immediately contacted Ricko to ask him about it. He also contacted Vivian and Denis.
Meanwhile, King Albion and King Kano began discussing about their cooperative relationship. King Albion began offering to form a magic circle in each of the kingdoms. Then he began to offer his soldiers as well to help the Kano kingdom in battle.
They make trade exchanges. Prince Erick also studied at the royal academy for diplomatic relations and for foreign cultures.

"Your Majesty." I tried to greet Denis politely.
"What's wrong?" Denis asked.
Surprisingly his voice was really friendly. There is no conflict between us.
Denis is shocked when he gets a telepathic signal from Eva. At that time he was still in an inn in a small village with Jean.
He is currently still carrying out his mission and is outside the capital. The headmaster asked him for help, so he helped. But who would have thought that he had been on this mission for almost two weeks.
"Your Majesty, don't you have a capital right now?" I asked directly.
Denis hoped the little girl would ask him how he was doing. But it didn't, so he was a little disappointed. But he still replied in a flat tone.
"Yes, I'm still on a mission"
"Didn't you know about the state of affairs in the capital?" I asked again to be sure.
Denis scrunched his forehead. "What do you mean?"
I also explained that the situation in the capital is really not good. Duke Court, my father has a conflict with the King for one thing. I also told him about the hole between the royal faction and the Court faction that was getting bigger.
"I don't know anything." Denis said in a slightly quivering voice.
"They said that my father intended to revolt with the Court faction. They even want to take over the robot shop I ran. But the discoveries are not mine either. I've already explained it to you" I said boldly.
I was a little upset, so I really took out everything I thought of Denis. I know this is wrong because the man doesn't know anything. But still I hope he can make a little change, for the situation to be better.
"When I get back, I'll check things out" Denis replied.
"All right"
"..."
After which, the two people fell silent for a moment. It was all because their topic of conversation was over and they became very awkward. The relationship between the two was not very good because of the conflict last time, which is why the atmosphere became awkward.
I didn't like the situation and wanted to end it, but suddenly Denis said in silence.
"I'm sorry..."
"..."
I didn't respond to her. I remember that he always apologized and of course I forgave him.
"It doesn't matter." I said later.
Hearing Eva's extremely indifferent response, Denis was disappointed. But she didn't say anything more until the girl decided to telepathize her.
"How much longer do we have to stay in this village?" Denis turned towards Jensen, who was looking at him enthusiastically while lying down.
Denis is not calm. He had no idea what kind of conflict was going on in the capital right now. But his feelings aren't good. He picked up the magic ball and contacted his father.

My and Denis' conversation is over. Now is the time to rest. It should be like that. But who would have guessed that a black robe suddenly slipped into my room all of a sudden.
"Sayn?" in an instant I recognized him.
Sayn opened the hood of her robe and smiled. "Hello" He waved his hand.
I don't know why I feel like his expression is so dark, even though he's smiling right now. I heard that the King locked him up for some reason. But I had also guessed that he could escape easily. Maybe his mood is not good right now.
"What's wrong?" i asked.
Sayn's face grew darker, but she kept smiling. "Didn't you miss me? Why is your response this cold".
He pulled my hand and suddenly brought his face closer, while looking at me fixedly. " You didn't even look for me after you got to the Kano kingdom"
"Um, Sayn" I squirm, trying to get away. It was really uncomfortable to see Sayn looking at me like that. Like the hungry predator. I don't like it.
But Sayn's grip is getting stronger. Finally I reflexively used my Magic and jumped away.
Sayn looked at her empty hand with a complicated expression then she looked at Eva. "Why did you stay away from me?"
"i'm not staying away from you. But your attitude now makes me very uncomfortable. Your face is horrible. What's going on?" I said directly.
Sayn's eyes dimmed. He closed his eyes for a few seconds then sighed. He tried to set his expression back to normal. "I'm sorry. I was too much" he said regretfully.
"It's okay. But what's going on? I've never seen you angry like that" I asked. Even while in the novel, Sayn is only angry when she finds out Reina did not choose her and prefers Denis. But what makes him so angry now?
"And again. I wanted to see you back then at the academy. But you seem to be busy talking to other people. So I don't want to interrupt and leave first. Not that I ignored you" I said again.
"..." - ".Sayn kept quiet and stared meaningfully at Eva for a while. Then he started saying. "You know that the King locked me up?"
"Yes. The news was widespread" I nodded.
"The man thought I was useless." he said softly.
I did not expect that the King's words would offend him. Has he not ignored the words of the King. But why is he thinking about it now?
"I don't think her words are a problem" Sayn continued, as if she knew Eva's thoughts. "I was lazy to create unnecessary conflict and chose to wait in prison. But the man suddenly came. He came with my foster mother and threatened me." Sayn's expression turned horrible.
I flinched when I saw him.
"I'm sorry. I don't intend to scare you" Sayn said regretfully.
"It's okay" I said directly. I ventured to approach her and patted her on the head. Sayn is taller than me. It took some effort for my hand to reach the end of his head.
Sayn's face flushed in embarrassment for a moment. Then he continued. "The old man threatened me to marry a 40-year-old rich merchant."
I almost stopped when I heard it.
"He said he would kill my foster mother if I opposed him" Sayn continued, narrowing her eyes.
"Then what are you gonna do? Is your foster mother under arrest now?" my many. I remember Sayn indeed considered the servant who had taken care of her since childhood as her foster mother. She was a good waitress after all, although it was a little cold and sharp-mouthed.
"I can save her easily" Sayn said confidently. "I'm just confused. What am I supposed to do with that shitty old man? The more days he really ruined my eyes. Should I kill him?"
Sayn talked about her desire to kill someone while raking innocently. It looks so horrible. He was even more suited to being an antagonist than Ren. Really
