I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 7 Prince Erick
Previous story:
Eva asked Denis about the situation in the capital. And it turned out that the man did not know anything because he was in a dream helping the principal. And of course the King did not tell him about what happened.
When Eva finishes her conversation with Denis, Sayn suddenly visits her room. Of course the man sneaked in secretly.
Sayn complained because the King locked her up. The king also threatened him using a person who was very important to him. Sayn thought about killing the old man. And made Eva surprised.

The atmosphere became extremely cold and silent as Sayn revealed her plan to kill the King.
"You crazy?" I looked at him in disbelief. "What if someone hears this conversation?"
Sayn smiled. "No. He's so weak. I could easily kill him like a chicken. And no one will hear our conversation" he said confidently.
"what do you think?" Sayn asked again while looking at me meaningfully. "Kill? or didn't?"
Gulp.
I'm speechless.
I don't know the answer.
How should I answer it? Sayn has been treated unfairly by the king for years. But I also did not dare to tell him to kill.
"I don't know. You decide for yourself. But killing it was too much" I replied after thinking for a while. "And also killing the King at a time like this is not beneficial at all. Because the Kano kingdom began to form cooperative relations with other kingdoms. If suddenly the King dies from being killed, there may be a national uproar" I continued.
"..."
Sayn fell silent. He seemed to be thinking about something.
"All right, I'll kill him later. Not now" he said with a smile.
"Bensr, right" I nodded in agreement. "Better congratulations your foster mother. That's more important"
"That's easy. I can save him in just a few minutes from prison" he said confidently.
I don't doubt it. He could do it.
"alright. I'll visit you again later" Sayn prepared to leave, but she suddenly turned her head and asked in a soft tone. "If I were king, do you think I'd be better than Denis?"
"Eh?"
"I don't know .. "I replied in a timid tone. I really don't know. I don't know if he's gonna be a better king than Denis or not. Because based on the novel, the man had not had time to lead as king because he lost the war.
Sayn's eyes narrowed. He did not ask any more but I knew that his mood was not good, just from the look on his face.
"See you later" He said for the last time. Then the man disappeared quickly. Leaving me frozen.
***
The next day, I did not see Sayn in the royal academy. I don't know what he's doing. Did he escape from prison and save his foster mother? If that were true, the palace would be in an uproar because he ran away. But such a thing does not happen.
Today I also saw a new face in the royal academy. A handsome young man, who looked the same age as Denis suddenly appeared along with the descendants of the King. The princes seemed to have great respect for her, while the princess looked at her with admiring gazes.
The princes and princesses had already attended the class. But I didn't see Sayn's whereabouts at all.
"My name is Erick. Some time I will take a class at the royal academy, please help" he said politely.
Everyone in the class froze. Like seeing a ghost.
I also felt that the face of this young man was very familiar. I've seen it but I completely forgot.
Until one of the disciples whispered "prince Erick", I immediately came to my senses. And froze along.
Erick did not allow himself to be a prince. But everyone in this class knew his identity because they had seen the young man before. Everyone was shocked to have the same thoughts in their heads. They were thinking how could the prince of the Albion Kingdom end up in their classroom?
Prince Erick smiled and scratched his head innocently. He immediately sat on the empty seat that had been provided without caring for everyone who felt awkward due to his existence.
Classes are going on as usual. Everyone forgot about Prince Erick. But their attention returned to the young man when the class was over.
Some of the students started to surround him and ask him a few things. Most of them asked how the scenery in the Kingdom of Albion because everyone had never visited the kingdom at all because it was so far away.
I could also see Lilac excited as usual from seeing the handsome young man. The girl asked the most.
Prince Erick was not bothered because of the sudden pressure. He answered their questions patiently while occasionally smiling.
"Is there a light witch?" I could hear Reina asking in a timid tone to him.
Prince Erick blinked a few times and replied. "There are some" he said. After that he did not explain further.
"Um. sorry before. But I heard rumors that when news of the alien was spread. The Kingdom of Albion did nothing to cleanse the dark witches from their kingdom" one of the girls standing beside Reina opened her mouth. Signifies that the kingdom of Albion protects the dark witches who are in their country.
Prince Erick lost his smile for a moment. But he still answered "Ah, like that. Yeah, we didn't do it"
