The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Destroying Vallua (5)

“It's just a threat! Lady Dubbled can't hurt me! Come on, attack—“Hayton yells,

His face quickly hardened after I placed the knife on his chin.

“The injury is fatal if sliced deeply, only cut 5 cm from the neck. If you are going to threaten them, it is safe to cut 4 cm from the tip of their chin.”

When I remembered Isaac's words, I smiled inwardly.

'Good job, me! It's 3 cm from the end of his chin.'

Hayton looked at me with a surprised look.

“You, you ..!”

“You don't need to answer. When they are cornered, silence is scarier than the words of your opponent. ”

As Henry suggested, he just smiled, Hayton became confused and gulped.

Knight Vallua was nowhere to be seen, so I shouted like a child.

“You are the signer. Count to a hundred and chase me!”

Participants and nobles were shocked. It was because they did not expect the battle to happen from the very beginning.

The Dubbled Knights pointed their swords at Hayton as a knight carried me and quickly bounced off the platform.

The area where the virtual battle took place had been cleared of everyone, making it easy to move.

I jumped from the knight's embrace and patted him on the shoulder.

"God…"

The armor is too heavy.

In virtual battles, the use of unauthorized items was severely restricted, so even children could not wear light and safe items.

'Should I take it off?'

It is so heavy that it is difficult to walk.

When I took the rope to tie Hayton, the knights came to my side.

“You will get hurt.”

"That's dangerous."

“Your law..!”

“... Why do you guys keep doing this?”

The knights looked at each other and gulped. Some cried and gestured to tell me how frightening my father and brothers were to threaten them before the virtual battle.

“We even thought it would be better to go to the actual war.”

I said with a nervous expression.

“Do not cry..”.

"Yes…"

During some of our casual conversations, Hayton shouted.

"Dubbled teaches kids how to be evil!"

I looked at him with my eyes wide open.

"How do you know?"

Hayton's expression shattered as I answered him shamelessly. I grinned.

“But if I'm evil, aren't you the same? You hid your knights. ”

"I…!"

"From the beginning, you tried to kidnap me."

Hayton's face hardened.

"I know it, motherfucker."

I grinned inwardly and tightened the rope tied by the knights to Hayton.

“Stay here for a long time—time okay?”

Then Nogak is mine!

***

The Knights of Vallua are everywhere.

The Knights of Leblaine and Dubbled, who captured Hayton, are nowhere to be seen.

"They're not in the shopping district."

“The only remaining ones are Desong Road and Asis Mountain. Should we search there? ”

Carox, the captain of Vallua's army, clicked his tongue.

“Mount Asis is our campsite. We have built the barracks even before the virtual battle, so they cannot be there.”

"Then what is Desong Street?"

"Yes, but we can't use the bomb."

“It was a weak building, so it could collapse and cause casualties.”

'They expected that, right?'

Who in the world could think of such a thing?

Is there anyone in the Dubbled knights who is good at strategy?

It might not have come from the head of a young girl who was less than ten years old.

Carox, who was checking the map, narrowed her eyes.

Most of Dubbled's knights were witches.

If not for the virtual battle, they would definitely have the best knights, but they could not participate.

'The knights they have are not familiar with this scene, unlike us.'

The Knights of Vallua who participated in virtual battles were currently raised in the church, trained for many years just for virtual battles, and were very familiar with the land.

Carox, who was touching the map, said,

“There is no good place to hide in the streets Desong.”

Knight Vallua quickly moved to the place he had appointed.

“As expected, I can feel it underground.”

Carox said with sparkling eyes.

"Enter."

'They don't fit in the first place.'

Now they are in a state of unexpected accident, but once they find Hayton, the situation will be reversed.

But, uh,

[You think it's here huh? That stupid!]

"…..What'sthis?"

A piece of paper is affixed to a straw doll tied to a pole. It was a child's handwriting.

"What the fuck!"

Carox, who was on high alert, shouted.

At that time, in the palace.

There are lots of calls everywhere.

“This is Mount Asis, not Deson Road!”

"A nine-year-old has such an idea ..."

In addition, Leblaine was now descending from the mouth of Mount Asis.

Hayton was lifted and dragged without doing anything.

People glanced at Duke Vallua. After the start of the virtual battle, his arrogant face turned into contempt and anger.

'That means little girl ...'

He yelled at Duke Dubbled, and hit the table.

“What a ridiculous thing to do! I can't believe he attacked her that fast!”

"He got the initial signal and I moved on."

“Although it is like that..!”

Duke Dubbled glanced at Duke Vallua with an indescribable gaze.

“This is the difference between those who are preparing for an attack and those who are not. My daughter just came up with the best defense against the attack. Where is the rule that we should not attack after the torch ceremony?”

Henry and Isaac grinned and replied,

“That's right, Dad.”

That time,

“What in—!!”

The surrounding area started to be noisy. Isaac's expression hardened.

knights of the nine participating families besieged the knights Dubbled and Leblaine at the foot of the mountain.

[Please hand him over.]

The second son of Marquis Hademos said, aiming for the sword.

Hayton Vallua was captured by Leblaine soon after he started. There is no time to talk to other participants.

However, when Vallua's knights fail to save Hayton, another family encircles the forest and suppresses Dubbled's knights, meaning they have a secret agreement beforehand.

In addition, they soon find Hayton, who can't even be found by Vallua's knights.

This meant Hayton could exchange signals with the nobles who shared secret agreements.

"Did he carry a communication device?"

Johann looked at Duke Vallua with a dull look. Duke coughed loudly.

"Cannot be. My son can't use unauthorized goods.”

Henry, who was watching, laughed out loud.

He used the last option because he was cornered.

“There are many bad guys.”

"Be careful with your language!"

Isaac clicked his tongue.

A ruthless and clumsy Hayton Vallua colludes with children from nine families.

If a formal objection to Hayton's cheating is raised, collusion is also inevitable.

If that happens, the virtual battle will end. But every plan will be in vain.

'I'm sure it will happen, but they might not listen even if I raise an official objection.'

It's gonna be over soon.

Isaac looked at Henry who was throwing dice in his hand.

That was.

Leblaine was at the finish line as she covered her mouth with her hands and laughed.

It was not the appearance of a cornered child.

And,

It sounds!!!

When Leblaine blew the whistle, a piece of rope fell onto Dubbled's army.

These men are Dubbled knights.

When they caught the rope, someone pulled them from the mountain.

"Other Dubbled Knights!"

They were the remaining knights except for the knights who moved with Hayton.

Isaac opened his eyes wide and said.

"Didn't the other half seek help?"

Henry and Johann stared at the finish line with stiff faces.

Just then, a torrent stream flowed down the mountain like a flood.

"I broke the dam!"

When someone shouted, Duke Vallua shouted,

"What's…"

A dark blue-haired boy wearing a robe appeared on the mountain. There's an armband on his arm, which means he's the captain.

[Zechari!]shout Leblain.

One of the four best knights.

A tactical genius.

It was then that the name Zachary, Leblaine's strongest bodyguard Risette Dubbled, was known.
