I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 7 The Duke Warrior
Previous story:
Execution preparations were also made. The hall of the town hall that became the place of execution was filled with many people. And the moment Diana appeared, everyone started throwing her trash at her. Diana will be put to death by poison. Denis chose this method because he was still kind to Diana to help keep her body intact.

From above, Eva could see a group of humans in the middle of the forest. They set up a small tent and there were countless people with armor surrounding the place.
Eva felt that the armor of the warrior was very familiar. It was his father's army! So he thought that they were the Duke's troops that were going to head to the capital. And their numbers are quite a lot.
Eva excitedly tells Emerta to go down. And that Duke was there.
So the three men descended in the middle of the camp and became the center of attention.
"Where's dad?" ask Eva without further ado. He thinks Duke's in one of the tents.
But no one answered him so Eva was a little confused.
'Maybe Duke isn't here' Eva thought.
"I want to see your general" he said. But no one responded. Eva was very confused. These soldiers should have recognized his identity. Why are brands ignoring it?
"Hello, princess" suddenly a familiar voice sounded.
"Arm!" It was one of his father's trust generals. The man was always at war with his father's side and became the Duke's right-hand man.
Eva went to Armin and hugged him. "Are you going to the capital because you want to save Dad? Dad's not here?" ask Eva tingling.
Armin smiled. "We are going to the capital" he said. Then slowly he placed the knife on Eva's neck. "But not a rescue mission"
Eva surprise. Emerta prepared to attack, but Armin brought the knife in his hand to Eva's neck. And even scrape off a little of the little girl's skin. "If you attack, he dies" he threatened.
Then thousands of soldiers surrounded Emerta and Erick while brandishing their swords.
Looking at her situation, Eva understood. He knew that not everyone would like his family after their true identity was exposed. Some of those who once felt familiar, could become enemies in an instant.
"Why?" asked Eva while glancing at everyone. "I don't know why you wanted to attack us. We did something wrong to you? My father even considers you his confidant"
Armin took a breath. "There's no reason" he activated the magic tool to seal the mana. He knew that these three people were witches so he had to deactivate them first.
"I just want to live comfortably and not get into trouble" Armin imagines that he managed to bring Eva to the capital. The king will probably give his award. And maybe his position will rise. He craved the position of great general.
Eva looked at everyone and sighed. He knew he could not blame these people. After all they are soldiers. Their job is to protect their homeland.
Eva raised her right leg and BAM! Large cracks are formed.
Armin. And he fell backwards because of that vibration. Then he looked at Eva in disbelief. He had already activated his seal, how could he use magic so easily?
Armin does not know that the magic seal is only effective against ordinary witches. For a witch who has so much storage in her body, it is useless. Except, where the deposits in their bodies disappeared and they were exhausted.
"Groan!" Armin yelling. And all the soldiers started attacking them.
"Don't kill them" Eva said. He reminded his grandmother not to kill recklessly. But that doesn't mean they can't be hurt.
THE SAT! Strange magic like a sword slash came out from Emerta's finger, hitting the ground under a group of warriors and causing another huge crack.
Emerta tried not to let while exposed directly to the bodies of the soldiers, as they could die on the spot. And he pointed her to the ground under their feet. And that is enough to overwhelm them. Some soldiers have broken bones.
Prince Erick sat down cross-legged while leaning his chin. He took out fireballs from his finger and shot the soldiers one by one. He felt very lazy, because these soldiers were like ants in his eyes. Although they are very much.
Yeah, they're a lot. Those three people could not attack them without killing. It would take a lot of time while they had to head to the capital now.
Eva took out her wind magic. He made ten small storms that ravaged the camp.
Then he invited Emerta and Erick to fly again. "We can't waste time here"
Emerta nodded. But he looked up and squinted his eyes. "I agree I won't kill everyone but one ahri dead"
"imm?" Eva looked at Emerta, not understanding.
SLASHY! Emerta swung her hand and a small wind slash towards Armin who was shouting to lead us to the soldiers.
The slash hit him. Armin froze for a moment before his body split in two and fell to the ground.
The mood became quiet. The soldiers also froze because their general was killed.
"grandmother..."
Emerta held Eva back while patting her head. He feels guilty now. Maybe such a murder is too much for a child. Emerta thought this way because he never knew that Eva had killed before. "He's a bad guy. We can't let him live. It will be troublesome" Emerta explained.
While Prince Erick looked at Emerta with goosebumps. That strange magic slash was also frightening to him. And Emerta is the scariest human she has ever met besides her father.
