I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 2: The Magic Match
Dean Wason looked at the two of us with serious and deep eyes, even causing my back to goosebumps for a moment. The atmosphere became cold for a moment.
"I'm sorry chief" replied Robert. "I don't mean to make trouble" Robert thought about the problem he made while making that white-robed person into an ice sculpture. Although Dean Caro, his subordinates are not necessarily guilty because their job is to follow orders from their own superiors. "I will bring them back to life and treat them until they improve" Robert said steadfastly.
"Alright" exclaimed Dean Caro indifferently. "Then how are you going to solve this problem in the future? Didn't I comply with your request? To kick you out of here even though I feel so lost..."
Whahuh?
Does that mean Robert was never expelled? He made a request to the magic tower for her to be expelled? Wh why? I know Robert's life here is safe, peaceful and peaceful. Although the truth is that he's Dean Caro's son, I don't think it's just because of that he needs to escape.
"I'm sorry." said Robert curtly as he lowered his head.
"Caro won't give up. You are his son. He's gonna keep coming after you until you get to that game" Dean Wason continued.
"What match?" cut me unconscious.
I don't remember any match about Robert in the novel. Part Robert in the novel is a bit, not as much as the main characters, Denis and Reina. So, I really don't know what happened to Robert in detail from small to large.
Dean Wason looked at me. I'm goosebumps again. "I'm sorry." I said I felt guilty. "Please continue..." I really feel guilty for cutting off the conversation.
"You're the duke's daughter?"
"Ah.." I reflexively stood up.
"My name is Eva van Court, Dean. I am Robert's student" I said as I saluted by holding my dress on both sides.
"Haha..." Dean Wason laughed. "You don't have to be nervous. I won't eat you" he said, changing his countenance like a friendly grandfather. "I feel troubled about involving you in this incident.
I became misbehaved. Both of my cheeks flushed in embarrassment and I started to sit back down.
"This game is the selfishness of the parents" Dean Wason replied later, returning to the main conversation and answering my question. "Every elder of the magic tower had several disciples. And the representatives of their disciples will be sent to attend the match. You know that there are a lot of magic organizations in this world don't you?"
I nodded immediately. I read it in a novel. There are many countries in this world so there are many magic organizations. Each country has its own magic organization. But, the Kingdom of Well and the Magic Tower are the main places in the novel. So I don't know the specifics of the other countries. Even during the war events in the novel, it is only described as 'fighting against the neighboring country' and until now I did not know the name of the country about thega. But, later I might know, because I have become a living human being in this world, not as a reader.
"There are about six countries and there are six strongest magic organizations. There are actually many small magic organizations formed by wandering witches, but we don't consider them. It was just a group that the naughty witches formed for fun. Once every ten years, the six magic organizations would meet. And the match happened. Have you ever heard of a sky split?"
I'm nodding. I've heard of it. But it is explained only a little in the novel. That Reina had entered the magic domain during that event and found a rare magical beast. He is a lucky protagonist.
"The match was held to fight for the entrance ticket to the mysterious domain. Every split celestial event occurred then a mysterious magic domain would open. The magic organizations sent their best disciples to compete. Then the ten major winners have a chance to enter. Each winning student would enter with their own teacher. That's why Dean Caro wanted to arrest Robert for the match. And the other magic disciples were annoyed that Robert was a genius and began to alienate him. Even if they were from the same organization, they would still fight later as representatives of each elder to get admission"
"That's why I consider this the selfishness of parents who want to sacrifice their children for position and strength"
"Why are you so eager to enter? What's in that magic domain?"
"We don't know for sure. I've been in twice. And I only found two magic weapons. But everyone will get a different gift. Some acquire magic weapons, magical beasts or rare magic. There are those who find rare items as well with various functions"
"What is the advantage of the first winner of the game?"
"The winning recruits will determine how long they explore the magic domain. The first winner will get longer and automatically get more prizes. But it is also not an advantage because everyone's luck is different. There is an event the last winner gets the same amount of prize as the fifth winner because he is luckier.
This is where the magical beast Reina came from. It seems that Reina followed that match and occupied one of the winning seats? Or did Robert stick to that match and give Reina a prize? This is not explained in the novel. I am really frustrated right now!
Dean Wason turned his gaze back to Robert "So? How'd your decision? Even though I've kept you away from her, she's still after the people closest to you" she said, staring at Eva with narrowed eyes.
Robert looked at Eva worriedly. Dean Caro already knew Eva's strength and kept pushing her. If she followed his orders, at least Eva could be safe from a single problem. But he would never do something that could benefit the greedy old man. Although Dean Caro is his biological father and his teacher who took care of him from childhood. He never felt the affection of his upbringing. He was thankful he wasn't on the streets anymore. But after coming to this moment, he actually continued to train hard and almost died. Once, he almost went into a coma for a month and finally woke up. But Dean Caro doesn't care or worry. He just looked at her sarcastically and told her to train harder. He was weak because of that he was injured. That is his motivation to be strong. The stronger he is, he will not be hurt.
When he found out that Dean Caro was his real father, he was very happy. He knew the affection of his parents too late because he was currently quite an adult. But when he heard Dean Caro talk back then, he immediately threw away his expectations. Turns out Dean Caro's only been using it all this time. Utilizing his magic, his body and mind to become powerful. So that he can get the results later. He knew that Dean Caro wanted to harness his magic power for his own benefit. Robert was unwilling to fight his teacher and father, so he decided to leave the magic tower, severing his involvement with Dean Caro. And he didn't know that Dean Caro wanted him so badly for the match that he even kidnapped Eva as bait. He felt so guilty that Eva was involved.
"Maybe.I'll come along." replied Robert. She knew she could protect Eva, but she could have been off guard like this. Because he can't keep an eye on Eva for 24 hours. 'Especially this little girl is very naughty, likes to run there yesterday hmph! So I don't know if he's in a dangerous situation or not Robert thought.
"Master..you're coming?" I made sure with widened eyes.
Robert nodded.
"Master.." I said spoiled while bringing my face closer.
Somehow Robert felt his shoulders goosebumps, he felt that something was not right.
"master...." Eva said again spoiled.
"Why?"
"I want ik.." I haven't had time to finish my words, Robert's hand quickly closed my mouth. Then he took me to his lap while keeping my mouth shut. "Nnl..umphhh!" i'm yelling.
Robert ignored me. "So how's the chairman? If I decide to come, do you have another way out?" he said while looking at Dean Wason seriously.
