Chapter 14 (part 2)

This is a long one but reading it had me dying LMAOOO. Enjoy the second part of chapter 14!

You should hide and play well. Hehehehe, Leona grinned, covering her mouth. Although it was known Leona was carrying a magical weapon, her daily life had hardly changed. Each day was a cycle of eating, sleeping, and resting. The only different thing was that Nikil hadn't come over in a while. She was told that Nikil was still lying in bed recovering from his injuries. Ibec came, and again, brought a broken gift, which I sent back. This time, it was a ring hook made of fingers. After which he finally stopped sending me gifts. Crazy bastard, he finally took a hint after I returned his gifts 12 times.

So Leona was completely free. Of course, there was still Cage who bothered her.

"Aha! I put her to bed right away!"

Leona giggled, looking at Cage, who was dozing off from her corner.

After all, Cage only paid attention to her.

"Let's get out of here!"

Leona climbed up onto the bed and put a pillow in the blanket.

She looked at the bulge in the blanket that made it seem like she was in bed.

"This is enough for me,"

Leona smiled and flew to the palace.

Her body in the air slowly began to descend to the ground, in the end, she resorted to walking. It was well known that magical weapons could be used, but Leona didn't show her true strength. "Without my knowledge, there was magic," is what she once said, so she shouldn't use magic with complex structures, and should only use a moderate amount of magic, so she stood still for a moment. At least she thought so, but it was an amazing sight to see a 3-year-old girl jump out of the tower and use fireball. So the imperial servants gave Leona the nickname "The 12th genius."(Because she's the 12th princess in the imperial palace) Of course, Leona knew nothing about this nickname. So she thought about living in moderation.

With a silent thud, Leona landed on the ground.

Yesterday I went north, so I should go west today! When she was about to walk past the wall of the Black Rose Palace she heard a strange voice. She didn't know if it was meant for her so she ignored it and moved along. The voice then said

"Hey! Don't ignore me!"

"Wooah!"

Leona grabbed her throbbing head. She slowly turned around. And not far away, she found a child holding a handful of small stones. It was the eighth prince. The 8th Prince, Eden was a nasty child. At the age of 6, he learned magic and began to carry strength on his shoulders. Having learned flame-based magic, he often burned the sleeves of the maids, and would also burn the hair of the attendants to make them bald. As time passed and he became stronger, he reached out to the little creatures. Ants, butterflies, lizards, squirrels, mice, and even rabbits. The appearance of harassing fragile animals and beating them was such a cruel aspect that even those who were adapted to this imperial family were horrified and had to quit their jobs.

Eden's POV (it switches between 1st person and 3rd a lot)

The eighth prince was badly beaten a week ago. He was almost killed by the assassins called at the prince's birthday feast.

He ran away and survived,, but the shame and humiliation haunted him. Then, what? The 12th princess saved the 4th prince? A genius wizard able to cast a fireball? I thought it was bullshit.. What kind of magic is the 3-year-old kid using? I thought it was rumour, but it was so widespread. The rumour did not subside, and it ended up being true. So I became angrier with every passing second.
