"I didn't have much money left over to feed my children after paying the increased amount of taxes!" Another person complained.

"That's why I keep telling you that we should try to overthrow our Lord or else we will have to starve this winter," another person explained.

"So another noble can replace him?" a person scoffed.

'So they're planning a rebellion!' I thought from their conversation.

Clack! Clunk!

I accidently bumped into the door while focusing on their conversation as the group of people gathered in the room turned to find me in the doorway as I revealed myself.

"I'm not anyone suspicious, I'm here because I agree," I started off cautiously as I took few steps back.

'It's just a little girl,' the people in the room thought as they sighed in relief.

"So why are you really here? Especially in abandoned place like here," the leader asked with his eyes narrowed and arms crossed.

'They may help me escape from the search party if I pretend to be one of them,' I instantly planned.

"I actually escaped from a noble's captivity and now I'm currently in hiding from them," I said with the most heartbreaking expression.

The group of people looked unconvinced even with my plain commoner clothes I wore.

"No commoner has jewel beads braided into their hair," a person revealed my excessive decorations on my hair that I forgot about.

The jewel beads were hardly noticeable under the dim moonlight of the dreary night. They only reflected the shards of sunlight that displayed their incredible brilliance in the daytime.

"I'm only a pet," I tried to display that this was my owner's preference.

"My master does this to prevent me from interacting with my fellow commoners like you," I pulled out my final weapon.

Tears slid down my face as I acted like I was in need of desperate help.

Unable to stay cold to me anymore, the people melted under my acting.

I guess my acting was getting better these days due to begging Luke to shorten those study sessions.

"I told you these nobles were scums! Look what they do to a little child!" A member angrily yelled immediately after my sudden tears.

The other members stayed silent as they hesitated to help.

"And the war is making my master more stressed out nowadays," I emphasized possible hints of abuse.


"Yea, I did hear from my friend's daughter that's a palace maid that a war may start." Another member admitted.

"Who doesn't know that wars are expensive! At this rate, the nobles may raise the taxes again." Another member complained.

"Can I suggest something?" I asked them carefully as I began to sit down on one of the broken couches.

The group members nodded as if they were entering into a transaction whether to help me out.

"How about you start a 'civil war' to re-elect a better leader among your people that you know that you can trust?" I advised based on my knowledge of the system of 'democracy' in my past life and the third district.

The group members looked surprise as they gasped and whispered among themselves of the discoverence of a notion that they never have heard before.

"You can get donations like you give to the church to get more funding. These are people who agree with you but don't want to get deeply involved," I revealed more aspects of my idea.

"You're pretty smart for a little kid," the leader complimented me.

'Pretty smart for a child in the fifth district,' I thought as children in the first district were exceptionally smart to survive in the school system.

"So please help me escape from the nobles and in return I can give you more details about the idea I gave you," I proposed a deal.

"Of course, you're just a victim like us," A member sympathized with me to get more details about the idea I thought of.

"It can't be helped that us commoners have no power against the nobles. Us commoners have to stick together!" Another member tried to extort more information from me.

"We'll go now," A member put on her worn-out cloak.

When we almost made it to the entrance of the carnival, the people were still crowded near the podium.

The sounds of laughter and cheers were replaced with tension as the royal family came to make a announcement as they stood at the same place where Robert was before.

"We can't leave without looking suspicious," A member that was helping me escape commented.

I was wearing a long cloak with a large hood from the costume store to cover my face and statue. Without having any other choice, a member of the rebellion group and I walked towards the large crowd to mingle among the people.

"We can leave once the royal family leaves the podium," the member explained as I looked worried.

When I looked up to see the royal family, I found Lucius and Belle standing ten steps back from the shadow of the royal family.

Lucius changed into a horrible shirt decorated with frills and laces that was couldn't be covered with his navy blazer. Belle wore her terribly luxurious dress as usual as the dress drifted down to her ankles.

'Since I was near the last few rows of the large crowd, there's no way they'll notice me!' I thought.

However, when I took another glance at Lucius and Belle, I met Lucius's line of sight like he was able to find me inside the large crowd.

'I have to leave now or else I might be dragged back into the castle!' I panicked.

I tugged the member's sleeve as I pointed that the noble may have found me in the crowd.

"We have to run now!" I whispered with fear.
