I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Robert POV 2's
This story is from Robert's point of view:
I looked at the little girl in front of me, the girl also looked back at me with a smile. Then, he introduced himself. She's a very polite and funny girl. The rumors are completely wrong! How could they spread such baseless rumors!
We're heading to the backyard.
I started explaining the basics of magic to her. I guess he'll get tired of hearing my explanation. But, apparently not! He watched me enthusiastically even nodding a few times that he understood. I really felt appreciated when I taught him.
I told him to gather mana. In one try he could do it! Moreover, he did it easily! I'm a little surprised. No one had ever learned magic this easily, even he understood it in just a few hours.
Then, I taught him how to shoot a basic spell. I told him to look for elements of his own. In one try, he could do it again! I'm really shocked. He already understood, did he still need a tutor? I'm sure he can certainly learn on his own from books, without the need for a tutor to teach him.
To be honest, I have never found a child with this speed of learning in the Tower of Shir. He's a real genius.
But, something shocking happened again!
Slowly the little girl started to bring out different elements. This is impossible! He had even fired five elements! This is really crazy stuff! Even at the last moment, I saw the last element, the element of darkness, come out of his body, albeit vaguely.
No way! This little girl could use all kinds of elements! Am I dreaming? I've never seen an entity like this before. I like things better than me! I like geniuses more!
I noticed the little girl who was jumping for joy in front of me 'Is she a monster?' thought horrified. I really dare not bring this shocking news to the public, not even the Magic Tower! I don't want this little girl to be in danger of being targeted by so many people.
The only person I can tell is Duke Court, yes, he's the only one I can tell...
'But Duke Court should have known, right? He's his father' I immediately undo my intentions.
After the lesson hours, I told the little girl to take a break and practice to absorb mana. The little girl nodded and went to her room. I sat in the backyard thinking.
"How's it?" suddenly the voice of Duke Court resounded.
"Everything is fine" I replied.
"Did he mess up?" duke Court asked as he frowned. He doesn't seem to trust his daughter.
I'm shaking. "She's a hard-working little girl. He watched during the lesson and he studied in earnest"
"Well, he is indeed quite enthusiastic about magic" Duke Court nodded. "But he is still weak." he said somewhat disappointedly.
"....." I'm speechless.
Such a girl is weak? Where's weakness? That girl was really like a monster. It's just that he's still a baby monster. He really couldn't absorb it all yet, but the moment he studied it all, he would truly become a monster. I shudder in horror. And I don't know why in my mind all of a sudden came across the image of the blonde girl standing on top of a pile of corpses.
Why would I imagine such a thing? It's really terrible...
"Maybe I can only teach her for a few years." I said tiredly.
"Why? I thought he was causing trouble, right?" duke Court said as he looked at me fixedly. "Don't lie for his own good. I know he must be causing trouble. I just had to lock him up and tell him to train harder"
"....." I looked up at Duke Court.
Is the Duke family really this stupid?
I'm kind of concerned about that little girl for having a stupid father like this.
"It's not...The girl will grow. I won't be able to teach him again in the future"
PAT! Duke Court patted Robert on the shoulder. "It's okay, he'll be in the academy when he's 12. You don't have to teach her anymore."
"That's not what I meant. That little girl is a genius. I won't be able to teach him much longer. Even I doubt the academy can guide him"
"I've guessed it from my daughter" Duke Court nodded his head enthusiastically.
"Well, she's your daughter. He can even master all the elements. I really don't know how to digest what I saw" I said tiredly.
"Ehhh??" suddenly Duke Court shouted with gawking eyes.
I just looked at him confused.
"What did you say??" he screamed while shaking both my shoulders.
"Uhh...what? I'm just saying that I can't teach her anymore. He's a genius."
"Not that, not that!"
I scrunched my forehead. "You mean, he can use all the elements? I thought you knew the duke. You're his father anyway" I said.
"...."
But suddenly Duke Court looked at me seriously. "Don't tell anyone about this"
I nodded obediently.
And that's how I taught the little girl. I taught him for a year. I visit a few times a week.
When the girl was six years old, she went to the capital to attend the royal tea party. I couldn't see him for a few months.
I don't know why I feel lonely. For a while I always saw him. But now I can't see him for a few months. I feel a little lonely.
Though I did my usual activities in the Magic Tower. I met with the teacher, with Charlotte and with the Dean. Even though I try to keep myself busy, there is still less. Should I go see him? No, no. It's a meeting of nobles. I'm not a noble, so I shouldn't be able to be there.
Suddenly, after a few months. I heard that the little girl returned to the mansion. Without thinking, I went there immediately.
When I arrived, I saw that the atmosphere in the mansion was very strange. Everyone was acting strangely, especially the duchess, her face was extremely sad and anxious. Cuke Court also put on a worried face. But, the little girl was just acting like normal.
What the hell's going on? I immediately asked Duke Court. Though hesitant Duke Court recounts the dangerous events that befell Eva. I'm shocked. Such a big phenomenon happened? The little girl actually hoarded her mana and let where it exploded?
"It's a good thing his body didn't explode! He's a kid, why don't you look after him!" I lost my emotions, immediately shouting.
Damnit damnit! I actually shouted at Duke Court! Have I gone crazy? If Duke Court is offended, our relationship is really in danger.
I panicked right away. "I'm sorry" I said.
"It's my fault" Duke Court replied later. Doesn't he seem angry at me?
Wh why?
Duke Court expressed regret and promised to look after him.
Duke looked at me seriously. "I'm also asking you to help me keep her okay"
As if hypnotized, I nodded obediently. But my heart was slightly moved when Duke Court said that.
Is this the feeling of happiness when you are recognized by the prospective in-laws?
'What do you think Roberttt is?? You're really going crazy! You even imagined such a thing with a little girl! Little girl!' I immediately scolded myself. For some reason since I hadn't met the little girl for a few months, my mind had gone out of control. And I started thinking strangely.
How could I like a little girl? That girl was even ten years younger! If Duke Court hears this, I'm sure I'll be instantly crushed on the spot given that Duke Court is very protective of her daughter. he would not let a person with deviant thoughts get close to his daughter!
'But after a few years he will grow, right?' I was thinking doubtfully. Right, that's right. I'm normal. There's no way I'm straying!
After that incident, the little girl was always imprisoned inside the mansion. He is not free to go out. I can only visit him inside the mansion. He begged me several times to take him out. But it can't be! What if there's another problem? even though it had faltered, I still insisted on not being persuaded by it. Although the pleading eyes really made me not have the heart, but I tried to overcome it.
But, this incident where exploding is dangerous. What if it happens a second time? I don't know why his body wasn't destroyed when the mana started to explode and cast magic out of control. But I'm sure this can't happen again. I have to prevent it.
Six elements of?
Where excessive?
If it's not wrong I've heard this...
UH! Map of the old man! The treasure map!
The old man once said that the map could give strength. Expanding mana capacity and adding elements. Isn't the case a bit similar?
If not mistaken, the grandfather also said "six types of elements are rare materials. Even if you don't fully collect all the ingredients, you can still benefit from it"
Do I have to travel to find this mysterious object?
I guess I should do it. At least I'm sure that this map is hiding something related to Eva's condition. I don't know why I'm this confident, could it be instinct? The instinct that grandfather meant? An instinct to protect someone?

Don't forget likeee....
