Thing is she doesn’t have to say anything LITERALLY
she can just transform i doubt her actually tranforming is gonna be a violation because its like the king already thinks of her as a Phoenix. A strong entity, ( other wordly being) regardless, so it’s like her transforming honesty is not really gonna do anything ( like hes not gonna think its odd ) because the moment when he realized that she understood him, there was a seal on the egg that glowed , random lights coming the egg, the egg moving randomly and not breaking under pressure
the chances of him thinking shes a regular bird already flew the window
She should’ve just told him she was the bird. Obviously he is gonna fall in love with her no matter what. But damn, it went from saving the world to more of her just chasing after him in her human form. Too boring dropped.
