I Reincarnated as a Wicked Girl
Chapter 7 Father, I'm Sorry
Previous story:
After Robert informed him of all the results of his investigation, Denis told Jean to check the Marquis's residence. Marquis Zent also told the two white-robed witches to block Jean. And Robert sent both Dean. In the end, only Jean returned and gave the information he got in secret to Denis. When Denis wanted to announce something, someone frantically told the entire hall that the capital had already been attacked by thousands of troops. It caused everyone who was in the hall to become violent. The Marquis used the opportunity to avenge his anger. He went to the center of the stage and stabbed Diana in the chest with his dagger.

Everyone is busy fighting. But he, a mighty young prince could only sit looking at a sleeping little baby. Evan was still sleeping well. Then there was one waiter who had just bathed and changed the baby's clothes. He did all his activities awkwardly as Erick kept staring at him. It was not a perverted look, but still he felt uncomfortable. After finishing all his tasks, he quickly moved out of the tent.
Prince Erick pouted. He really felt very upset and bored. The goal of following Eva back to Well's kingdom wasn't to look after a baby and sit all day. He also wanted to watch the war up close!
In fact he could have secretly sneaked out and peeked at the war going on in the capital. But he didn't because he didn't want to abandon his responsibilities. As the Duke had said, there were only a few soldiers and servants in this camp. Then Sayn left only one witch to stand guard around the camp. It is true, if nothing happens, this level of security is enough. But if anyone attacks this camp and he's not there, everyone will be in danger. That's why, he'll keep everyone safe until Duke and everyone return safely.
Prince Erick chipped his chin with both hands while glancing at Evan. That baby is funny. But looking at the baby all day and doing nothing really makes his whole body feel itchy.
But suddenly he felt something. He opened his storage room and took out a palm-sized crystal ball that continued to glow. It was one of the magic communication tools given by his father.
"What are you doing stupid?!" the annoyed voice of King Albion could be heard clearly from behind the crystal ball. The king was clearly shouting. It was fortunate that the crystal ball was only transmitting a small part of the sound so that the sound coming out from it was not big. And don't wake Evan who's fast asleep.
Prince Erick nonchalantly closed his ears and said "I'm busy"
He was already preparing to return the crystal ball back to his storage room but the father said in a cold tone. "I'm gonna burn your garbage"
"Oh, good dad. I miss you so much~ How are you? Your waist doesn't hurt from a long trip, does it? You should call the healer if that happens. I'm really worried about you~" the young man's attitude instantly changed by one hundred and eighty degrees. Like a fox, he began to be polite and sent the King his sweet words.
Veins of annoyance appeared on King Albion's head. His only son was really naughty which is why he had educated him so hard since the boy was a child. He recalled that when the prince was a boy, he would often tease young maids and ridicule noble children until they cried. Inevitably he had to discipline her even if it did not produce any results until she grew up.
"Enough. I'm gonna really burn that dumpster. You won't find anything when you get back"
"Dad" prince Erick fell to his knees. "I'm sorry" he said, whining. "I'm sorry..." Now he was truly sorry for ignoring his father all this time.
