I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 3: Academy: The Welcoming Event
Previous story:
Eva goes to the academy to attend a new student welcome event. However, unexpected things happen. Denis suddenly approached her, welcoming her by kissing her hand. Then they declare that they are engaged. Which made an uproar throughout the entire crowd of disciples. And more importantly, she even kissed Eva in the middle of the public, which caused an even greater uproar. Eva was really panicking. She was so embarrassed, so embarrassed. His face was flushed like boiled shrimp and his heart was racing. Denis offers to drive her to the hall building, but Eva immediately refuses. Fortunately the second prince came to call Denis, so Eva could freely leave the place.
On the top floor of the building, an unexpected figure was observing. That person is Robert!
***
I still stomped my feet, upset, cursing Denis in my heart.
I tried to speed up my steps to get inside the hall building because I wanted to avoid the strange gazes from them. Not that I can't stand people's views. It's just that Denis's treatment just now really drove me crazy! He actually did such an embarrassing thing in public!
Relax, Eva, let's try, relax...
Finally after exhaling and sighing a few times, I was able to catch my breath. My face also slowly improved and did not blush anymore.
Haa~ I exhale. Hall's up ahead, I gotta get in.
The hall in front of me looks pretty big. When I entered, I saw that the hall was already quite crowded and the chairs were already quite filled.
I looked left and right. The disciples here were divided into two groups. The right side is filled with nobles. You can see the badges of each family on the sleeves of their uniforms. While on the left were the commoners, there were no badges of any kind on the sleeves of their uniforms.
This was only natural because nobles and commoners could not blend in in this academy. This separate group formed on its own.
Ordinary people were so afraid to mingle with nobles that they formed groups with other ordinary people. The nobles were unwilling to humble themselves to associate with ordinary people, so they ignored him. That's why the nobles are identical with the attitude of 'boast' and 'alone'.
I remember once there was an important event during the welcoming event. At that time Reina would create an uproar by sitting in the ranks of commoners. Because of that attitude of his, he actually caught the attention of everyone in the hall. But the girl was acting innocent and did not know that what she was doing was really eye-catching.
Then at that time, Reina's attitude also attracted Denis' attention. Denis as chairman of the board will preside over the welcoming event. He began to take an interest in the plain girl that attracted the attention of the entire hall. Although her attraction has not led to falling in love, the longer they interact, the more Denis will fall in love with Reina.
"When will the event happen? Maybe soon, right?" I murmured a little while observing the crowd in front of me. It doesn't seem to be happening yet, because I don't see any uproar.
Ah, I don't want to think about it. The point is that it's not related to me. And I haven't seen a danger event like the one in the novel either.
I immediately went forward and looked for a chair to sit on. I saw a very strategic seat because it was in the middle. Without a second thought, I sat in that chair.
As I sat down, I noticed that the two people on my left and right were shocked.
"Ah, sorry. Does this chair belong to someone else?" I asked them after seeing their uncomfortable expressions.
The two people immediately shook their heads quickly.
Eh? It doesn't belong to people, does it? Why are their expressions like that?
I watched the two people beside me. Why does it feel so familiar huh?
"...."
UH! I remember!
I saw them go back and forth. Red hair, red eyes and brown skin. The Count Bastin Family. The fire twins from the Bastin family!
The Bastin family was a family famous for their fire witches. One of their offspring is identical to red hair and red eyes. And they are famous as the strongest family of fire witches. These twins are identical twins. It's just that they have different genders, male and female.
The twins are a fairly famous side character in the novel because they often appear, during the adventure arc. Become friends with Reina's group. These two people are also heavy enemies of Eva! Whenever Reina is bullied by Eva, the twins will help her. The twins are not afraid of Eva, they even humiliate Eva several times and make her a laughing stock.
I know why these twins don't sit side by side and leave an empty seat in the middle. It's all because their relationship isn't good. Their attitude is so opposite, that they often fight because of differences of opinion. On my left are the twin boys who are very skilled as swordsmen of fire. And to my right are the twin girls who are very good at fire magic. As for their name, I have completely forgotten about it. I don't remember their names clearly because they're just side characters.
"Aah!!!" suddenly the twins shouted while pointing at me. "I know you. You're pretty famous. That was really surprising. You're the crown prince's fiancee!" said stupid.
My face is embarrassed. "...." I didn't say anything about his reaction.
"Don't listen to her, miss. He was not polite from birth. His attitude has been like that for a long time" said the twin boys.
"Hum" I nodded.
"Come on!" the female twins immediately patted my shoulder.
I was really surprised.
"Don't be so rigid. It turns out that the rumors about you are not true. Your attitude is completely opposite from the news I heard" said the female twin.
I scrunched my forehead. "What rumors?" I pretend I don't know.
"Haah? You don't know?"
I'm shaking.
"Hahaha this is interesting" she laughed hysterically. "It's been famous a long time ago that you're an arrogant, arrogant little girl. But I see you're pretty shy. Come on, introduce my name Lilac" she said with a smile.
"I'm Eva"
"Then the fool over there was Louis" he said in a mocking tone while referring to the twin boys.
Louis was only glaring at his sister, but he did not reply to his sister's taunts.
"You don't seem to get along?" I asked directly.
"I can't get along with fools" Louis replied indifferently.
"I also can't get along with people who are more stupid than me" Lilac replied directly.
Haa~ this is what happened when the two twins spoke to each other. They often argue.
"You are completely different from the rumors" Lilac said curiously as she looked at me fixedly.
I feel uncomfortable being observed up close like that. "of course. How such rumors could have arisen"
"They said you looked like a witch with wavy hair, red lips and thick eyelashes" Lilac said. Which makes me surprised at his words. "But you're a pretty little girl. The rumors are really stupid"
My mouth twitches. "Of course.that's not true...'
Grandma magic?! Who made such a rumor?
Although I was quite arrogant and excited, but the rumor miller said I was like a wave-haired witch?! I'm really going to burn the rumour-maker alive.
"Hope not to be caught by me" I murmured, gritting my teeth. Because if I find the rumour-maker, I might not be able to hold back my emotions and destroy them.
"I've also heard rumors about you" I said as well. "You're famous as the best fire magicians, aren't you?"
"hahaha" Lilac scratched her head timidly. "It hasn't been that good"
"Humph!" Louis. "He's not the best at all. I'm the best. That stupid girl couldn't even last five minutes against me"
"That's because you cheated!" lilac snapped. "you used physical strength to fight back line witches!"
"There's no such thing as cheating when you're on the battlefield. From the beginning you were weak and troublesome"
"You!"
WAWAWA
I heard the crowd in the hall start to get noisy and noisier.
Uh! The event has happened!
I saw Reina walking and sitting in the line of commoners. His face is so plain. He was completely flustered when looked at and his face looked down in embarrassment.
"Who's the girl?"
"She's the count's daughter, isn't she?"
"She's a lost princess"
"She was actually sitting in that chair"
"Ah, brave girl"
I heard my surroundings whisper to each other after seeing Reina's attitude.
"She's an attractive little girl" Lilac said enthusiastically.
Well, I guess the twins will end up being Reina's partner, just like in the novel. I'm a little disappointed actually. Will we all be enemies in the future?
The commoners were also shocked and noisier when they saw Reina approaching them and sitting down.
"Who is he?"
"Lord"
"I heard he was a commoner"
"Ah, I understand why he wants to join us"
"She's a girl who isn't arrogant, she doesn't forget that she once lived as an ordinary person as well"
"He's not ashamed of us"
"She's a good lady"
"He's so innocent and pure"
The response of the commoners was excellent upon seeing it.
Well, at first Reina did have strong support from the commoners. That's why she can be a queen so well.
That innocent Reina watched the surroundings back and forth. His face looked puzzled like he had no idea what was wrong, so everyone looked at him.
Then he pulled out his powerful form. He looked at the crowd with sparkling eyes and a sweet smile. His smile was pure and innocent. In an instant, the male disciples were instantly mesmerized by that smile.
Ah~ Reina has spread haloo the main character
"Ah, she's a goddess. She really was a goddess who came down from heaven" I heard Louis muttering madly.
"Basic fool!" grouse Lilac. He really did not know that his brother was so easily seduced.
hmm goddess yes...
I've never seen a goddess, so I don't know what they look like. But I've seen a god. And the god was very disappointing. The god I saw was not a handsome and pure man, but just a stupid haa~ cat
The show is about to start.
Denis suddenly appears, and grabs the attention of everyone from Reina.
The crown prince walked elegantly towards the podium and seized the attention of the entire audience. When I got to the podium, I caught a glimpse of Denis watching Reina. I don't know what he's thinking. But I guess the event can't change. He remained interested in Reina as the welcoming event took place.
Suddenly, Denis looked at me. Since I was watching her staring at Reina, our eyes involuntarily stared. He smiled at the smile that made me shudder.
"Your fiance's ah~ greets you" Lilac elbowed me and teased me.
My face immediately flushed in embarrassment. I turned my eyes away by lowering my face.
But it only lasted a little while. I tried to set my expression and act relaxed, before turning my gaze to the front of the podium again.
'Eva, you can't be tempted okay. Hold on..hold it.' I tried to convince myself not to be misbehaved when Denis started teasing me.
Finally the welcoming event began. Denis started opening the show.
This show was very boring. Reminds me of the welcome when I was in school. So full of speech, my ears are completely numb.
The speech did not stop, from the headmaster then spread to the teachers. I've yawned a few times to endure the drowsiness that really dominates.
Finally the top event has arrived. The best new students will give a welcome word. Who else if not Reina? Who has magic with high tier level?
When Reina's name was mentioned as the best disciple, everyone was shocked. Again, the girl became the center of attention. I saw the eyes of men filled with adoration and pride, but different from the eyes of women, especially nobles. Their eyes were full of jealousy.
Reina advanced slowly onto the podium.
Uh! There will be an event here too!
If not wrong, when Reina advanced to the front of the podium, she would slip down. But Denis helped him. So the seeds of love between them began to grow.
Let's see~
Reina started to advance onto the podium and it turned out to be true, she slipped!
And Denis caught him too! But shit!
As Reina began to lose gravity and fell down, Denis waved his hand and in an instant the girl's body flew upwards before returning to its original position. This crown prince used magic to prevent Reina from falling!
"You okay?" ask Denis.
"It's okay ..Her majesty" replied Reina exclaimed. Reina's face was down, I couldn't see her expression.
After the incident, although it had been boisterous for a while, the hall calmed down again.
Reina slowly began to recite her greeting.
After a few minutes, the event was finally over as well.
because the learning period has not begun, after the welcoming event the students return to their homes. Then their classes will be announced via telepathy later by the teachers.
I actually wanted to return to the mansion, but not so because I wanted to see the dormitory. Ah~ although I actually don't need a hostel because I have a mansion in the capital. But this story wouldn't be complete without a hostel. I want to feel the feeling of living in a hostel, even if it's only a few months.
I'm curious~
"House, I came~" I sang a little while whistling happily.
