Without him noticing, the time to study in the Kano kingdom was only two months away. After this student exchange program is completed, he and the other children will return to the kingdom of Well. To be honest with Eva, the time she spent in the Kano kingdom was not very special but she learned a valuable lesson about the living system in this kingdom. And according to him of course the kingdom of Well has a better system for the people even though their system of government is unstable because the possibility of a coup is very large.
After completing the mission from the academy, they had to prepare for their graduation examination within these two months. The exam will be divided into two sessions, a written exam and also a practice exam. So they have to learn to prepare for the first exam first.
"Hello, can you teach me no?" prince Erick smiled happily and appeared in front of them. His hands were leaning against the table and he was chopping his chin with both hands while whistling.
Eva's face immediately twitched. And Berta looks very happy. With sparkling eyes, Berta replied with great excitement "Of course!" he is not very smart and has never taught anyone at all.
"I didn't expect, someone with an unintelligent brain could become the crown prince" a voice with a satirical tone suddenly came. It was Sayn. The man came and looked at Prince Erick with a pouting face. Prince Erick's whereabouts really irritated his eyes. He really doesn't like this guy.
Prince Erick smiled slightly. "I'm not that stupid" he said without a burden. "The princes in this kingdom are worse than me" he said in a whisper.
Hearing his words, Berta froze for a moment. And Sayn's cheeks twitched. Even though Prince Erick didn't say that too loudly, they were still in the classroom right now. Insulting the royal family will get a very severe punishment even if the person is a noble from another kingdom.
Sayn was of course very offended. He was one of the princes in question and he realized it. Sayn looked at prince Erick with glaring eyes. But Prince Erick was relaxed, as if he had never done anything wrong. Berta became awkward because he was squeezed between the two princes. While Eva looked at the two like seeing a comedy drama.
"Prince, Berta will teach you. So I'm leaving first. There are a few things I have to do" Eva said
But Prince Erick got in his way. "Ehhhhh? I want us all to learn together." she continued with teary eyes. "I heard that the duke's daughter is very smart. How could you leave a fool like me behind" he said sadly.
Seeing her acting, Eva's face twitched. Of course Eva knew that this man was just pretending to be able to stick around her. And Eva still doesn't know the purpose of why Prince Erick approached her. Because the prince's behavior is very random and unpredictable at all.
Therefore, Eva once again formed a four-person learning group like the previous group to complete the mission. Sayn somehow joined in without saying anything, like before.

Marquis Zent hurried over quickly to the royal hall. He requested a private meeting with King Well to inform him of the information he had obtained. Honestly, he was really excited this time.
Arriving at the royal hall, King Well was already waiting for him lazily and muttered. "What's the matter, old man Zent?"
The king raised his eyebrows, but he did not say anything. The king gave time to Marquis Zent to explain the important information he had obtained.
Marquis Zent told me everything slowly and surely. He uses Reina as a guarantee that the information he gets is reliable because Reina is a light witch. And the light magician could easily detect the dark magician.
"So Your Majesty, I don't mean to accuse Duke Court. But we have to check everything, especially his wife Diana. Because it's very likely that woman is a dark wizard in disguise."
BRUK! King Well hit his throne seat because it was so emotional. "Omong empty!" he shouted in anger. "How could Enell possibly deceive the kingdom and make dark witches into nobles!"
"You must calm down, Your Majesty. I also don't believe the information I get."
"I don't believe it either. You didn't lie to me, did you?" King Well glared.
"I don't dare... Your Majesty" Marquis Zent said with a voice trembling in fear.
King Well tried to catch his breath and calm himself. "I don't trust you completely Marquis. But that doesn't mean I don't care about this. I'll do an inspection at Duke's house to prove the truth"
"Okay, your honor"
Marquis Zent looked at the King again hesitantly. "But.but if all of that proves to be true, what will His Majesty do?"
The look on King Well's face turned creepy. "If that were true, it's possible that the evil witch used magic to brainwash Enell. I won't let her." He clenched his hands tightly.
"I don't know why he used Enell and infiltrated our kingdom for so many years. I'm sure their goals aren't good. And for Enell, I'll forgive her as long as she gives us that dark witch. I'm not going to kill him right away. I'll interrogate the witch first about the plans they're going to do in this kingdom"
"But what if the Duke does that consciously. And it turns out that he's blocking His Majesty's plan. After all the witch was his wife" Marquis Zent said skeptically.
"Don't talk nonsense!" The king shouted furiously once more. "Enell must have been brainwashed by that dark witch. Since dark witches are very good at using mind magic. We'll see later"
He stared at Marquis Zent seriously "Now prepare an army. We're going to the Duke's residence. Bring some magicians and also some magic tools. We're going to prove if that woman really is a dark witch. We have to catch him alive if that's true and we can't let him escape."
"Okay, Your Majesty"
Marquis Zent gave a small smile once more before finally dying in the hall to do as the king commanded. He was really looking forward to the moment that the arrogant Duke had fallen from his glory days. Imagining that alone really made his heart very happy.
