I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 6 Rank Ten
Previous story:
Eva enthusiastically recounts her ideas that are beyond human understanding in this world.
Eva tells Ren the concept to make airplanes, cell phones and rifles with which main fuel.
While Ren listened to her enthusiastically.
***
I told Ren all the magic concepts so enthusiastically that I forgot the time.
Ren even told me to draw the concept. He helps me from behind if there's anything I don't know. Teacher is still a teacher, he still acts like a teacher despite being outside the academy. He directed me well. Even I was surprised, I was able to draw the concept to this extent.
We both did not sleep until the morning. You could say we were too into our own world.
Until finally, I realized that something was wrong.
'Why do I feel uncomfortable?'
'I forgot something, but what?'
My feeling is uncomfortable. But I continued my activities with Ren. I'm really confused.
"You're wrong here" Ren said, blowing my daydream.
I refocused the paper in front of me. "Eh? You're right" I'm starting to fix the concept map I created.
It went on like that, until a few hours later, I realized that I made a fatal mistake.
"Geeh!" Eva shouted suddenly. Even Ren was surprised even though his expression remained flat.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Guruuuu!" I screamed in panic while pulling on Ren's arm. "Bring me back to akadami. I forgot that today I have a match!" I almost cry now. I completely forgot that there was a match for the top ten candidates today. What happens if I don't come? Will I be disqualified now?
Especially now that it's noon. The match is already underway! What am I supposed to do?
"Does that matter?" Ren asked with a plain face.
Veins of annoyance appeared in my head. This guy must have done it on purpose! I'm sure of it!
"I have to go back" I said unconcernedly as I stepped out of the room.
But I haven't gotten too far, Ren pulled my shirt again. And SYUUU, she took me flying through the sky.
"...."
I stared at Ren silently. Actually he's a bad guy. His mouth always says rude. But his actions are not like that. The tsundere?
"Thank you" I said thank you sincerely.
"..."
Ren did not respond and kept his poker face.
A few minutes later, we arrived at the academy. As expected, the test of the match was over.
Reina managed to win the match and get first place. His opponent was Crown Prince Kano. But Crown Prince Kano relented by saying "I can't beat you. You're much stronger now" with her sweet smile. And everyone cheered.
I saw the scene before my eyes with a sour face. My mood is not good at all. I almost cried at that moment. The exam is really over!
"What should I do ..." I wailed sadly. "If I'm disqualified...Doesn't mean I didn't go to class" I was pretty horrified by that fact. Because if you keep repeating at level one, it means you have to go to school longer. I don't want to! Really don't want to!
"Follow me, we're going to meet the principal" Ren said suddenly.
I didn't ask anything about it and tailed behind Ren. I looked at Ren's big back while thinking 'Will he help me? Umu? I didn't know she was this good? Isn't he evil?'
I still can't determine if he's a good or a bad guy. But since he dared to threaten my mother's safety, I won't consider him a good person. My family's safety is more important than my own. I've been deciding this since my little brother was born. So I can't focus on just saving myself right now. I also need to make sure that my family is okay.
We arrived at the principal's room.
"Wait here" Ren ordered me to wait behind the door, not follow him into the room.
I just nodded obediently, I thought they would talk about secret things and not want to be known by others.
I waited patiently outside, until Ren and the headmaster came out to get to me.
"Good afternoon principal" I greeted him politely.
The headmaster who was a middle-aged woman smiled. "I've heard the story from Wilson. You helped her research into forgetting time, didn't you?"
I looked at Ren with an annoyed look. Since when did I help with his research? The one who kidnapped me and threatened to kill my family!
Didn't she let me in with her because of this? So that he could smoothly lie! Really shameless!
But, even though I was upset, I couldn't do anything. To my own advantage, I can only nod resignedly.
"Alright, we won't disqualify you. It just so happens that the last position is empty. You can rank 10" the Headmaster said was friendly. That attitude remembers me for Dean Crsytal. They are quite similar in terms of sound and action. Even though their appearance is very different.
I felt relieved when I heard it. A rank 10 is not a bad rank. "Thank you, principal"
"Well, you can go back to the game hall. Your match is not finished at all. You guys still have to get into the general ranking of the top 100 right?"
I get the point. It turned out that the test of the match had not yet reached the final stage. The stage to oppose the hundred general ranks had not yet been implemented.
"Then I'll go first. Thank you, principal. Thank you teacher Wilson"
I rushed to the match hall. When I got to see Lilac waving at me.
"What are you doing? Where the hell have you been? I thought you were asleep. But Vivian said you were no longer in the room when she woke up" Lilac hugged Eva's neck heavily. That hug was enough to strangle him.
"I have a little business. Can you just let me go? I'm terce.kik..."
"Oh, sorry" Lilac let go quickly. "So where are you going?"
I turned my face. Confused to answer. "Um... someone asked for help..so I helped him?"
"Why do you doubt that? You're not lying, are you?"
"No! Not at all!" I said quickly as I waved my hand.
TING!
A loud sound attracted everyone's attention.
I saw a big board in the middle of the match. And on that board are nine names. Then when the strange sound occurred, another name appeared in the order of ten.
"Eva Van Court" that's my name.
I guess it was a leaderboard and automatically I was ranked ten empty.
When Eva's name came up, all the spectators became uneasy. Because they knew that Eva did not follow the match. Although he got into the top ten at first, some of them thought this was unfair. Since Eva had already broken the rules, she should have been disqualified. But it didn't.
Everyone was gossiping that this was all Duke's will. Duke wanted his son's name to be famous, which is why he did that.
Many of them thought that the Duke was freely abusing his power. And they're very unhappy about it. Even so they could do nothing so they could only gossip amongst themselves.
