The Baby Who Raised the Devil

The Destruction of Vallua (2)

Gwang!!

Duke Vallua threw the glass at his wife, who returned to the mansion. The Duchess, who had barely avoided the glass, covered her mouth with a pale face.

“Hai, babe..”.

"A useless girl!"

She ran to her angry husband and hugged him.

“I've also been hit. Why would a fraudster suddenly target a kind-hearted person like me? Dubbled must be after you, me…! Argh!”

Duke Vallua grabbed his wife's shoulder.

“What does an art dealer say? He's from Dubbled ?! ”

“……”

When Duchess Vallua could not answer and avoided looking at her, the Duke pushed her harshly.

Dubbled's second son, Henry Dubbled, who came on behalf of his previous sister, has a scary side unlike boys his age.

“Go in the morning and pack your luggage!”

“A, what—“

Back then, he hated himself with the insults and words he had heard from Theodore Dubbled.

When he recalled Theodore in his youth, he remembered the first time in his life when he was humiliated.

It was the garden where the nobles gathered, his sword was on the grass, as Theodore Dubbled's sword had shown him.

A voice murmured,

"Theo, stop."

Thin backs that block it and bright glowing hair.

William Vallua had a woman he could not have in his life.

The man's rough hands were hugging the woman.

At this moment, the faces of the child of fate and the woman, who was laughing beside Theodore Dubbled, overlapped.

Duke Vallua clenched his fists tightly.

“Talim!”

When Duke Vallua shouted, a man wearing a wide-brimmed hat and gloves walked in.

"Please give me your orders."

"Bring 'them' from underground."

"Yes." Yeah."

The man lowered his head. Duke Vallua's eyes shone.

"You're gonna lose him again."

The dazzling glory will be his. He will be left with regret for not saving what is valuable in his life.

***

The gifts will be presented at the Imperial Palace's dinner in four days.

I answered the invitation from the palace as soon as I returned to the mansion.

And today, my family and I went to the palace.

At the dining table are the children of two families who have entered the finals and their families.

We saluted each other and soon after, the emperor, the first prince, Andre, and Empress Yvonne entered.

Usually, the person with the highest position among those invited would be the one to start the greeting.

However, it is up to me, the winner of the virtual fight, to start the greetings today.

“God bless the Imperial sun. Enjoy the glory of eternity.”I said politely.

' What do you think? Perfectly?'

I learned it from Camilla and the chief.

My father, brothers, and aunt had proud expressions, followed by their greetings to show respect to the emperor.

“Enjoy the glory of eternity.”

“Enjoy the glory of eternity.”

The Emperor smiled happily and nodded.

“Welcome to the palace. Sit." Sit."

After sitting down, everyone in the dining room started eating. There were small conversations, and the atmosphere was friendly the entire time.

I was a little worried Shuheil, my opponent in the final, would act rashly out of jealousy, but it seemed like he had already forgotten his defeat in the final.

"It's delicious" he said, offering me a cake.

"Thank you."

“Eat a lot and grow taller. That way, next time no one will consider you small.”

...he did not forget his defeat.

Isaac snorted and placed a different pie on top of the pie Shuheil had given him.

"Why? Do you think you're being teased by my sister?"

“We are in front of His Majesty. Watch your words.”

Edgar Shuheil frowned and said that.

The two were said to be at odds with each other in the academy, they must have had a bad relationship.

I chewed on the pie Isaac cut for me, and thought I should remember it next time.

'By the way, what about the prize? The gift!'

I'm in a hurry to find out about the summoner in Duke Vallua's secret warehouse.

At first, I tried to investigate. But they say summoners are very rare. In the first place, it was even difficult to find people who knew them.

Empress Yvonne, who was eating and talking to the family's wife, tapped her mouth with a napkin.

"Your Majesty, I think they are quite waiting for you, so I will give you a virtual battle reward."

The emperor nodded as my eyes lit up.

'It would be better to see Boone again. Or the 56th pillar demon. Because Boone said the devil was good.'

When the emperor raised his hand, the servants entered.

They gave envelopes to the finalists. This is because there is a small amount of prize money for the finalists.

They gave me a thick envelope and a jewel in a transparent box.

'It's nogak...'

This is a rather oblong, yellowish gem. Unlike the bright yellow color, the color is a little murky.

I looked at the emperor and he nodded.

“This is a gem in ancient records.you can take a closer look. ”

I immediately opened the box and saw the jewel.

'Wow…'

"Boone, please come."

Back then, on the Boone mineral, a very friendly energy was felt. I feel like I'm in warm water.

However, this energy was similar to a somewhat difficult Pymon.

'No, it's a lot harder than Pymon.'

A strong demon?

“... need.”

“……”

"Lady?"

"Yes?!"

I paid so much attention to the jewel that I missed the emperor's words.

'Oh no, my concentration…'

It was hard to maintain my mature thinking because I used my divine power to repel monsters during virtual battles and was tired in many ways while dealing with Duchess Vallua.

“What does Lady think? Which one, first or second prince?”

I glanced at my family. Besides they don't seem fun.

Empress Yvonne smiled affectionately.

'Since Vallua became useless, this time he wanted to use Dubbled?'

I snorted in my heart.

I hateit.

The emperor, Yvonne and the first prince were as dangerous as the church. In my first life, Empress Yvonne was eager to make a child of destiny as a bride for the first prince.

There was a widespread opinion that I was a fake, so he was not interested, and was very interested in Mina.

The Empress made all sorts of plans to connect Mina with the first prince. I was involved and suffered because of it.

'The answer is fixed.'

"I chose Adrian the Second Prince!"

The empress's face hardened. She, who was squeezing the napkin, tried to hide her expression and asked.

"Why Adrian? You've never met Adrian, have you?”

“I saw ah, no, met him at the godmother's house. He gave me the honor of being his friend!”

The emperor nodded his head.

“So like that..”

That would be a good thing for the emperor.

It was the moment when Empress Yvonne's power grew so large that she needed something to hold it in.

But Adrian doesn't have the right support.

My presence on the second prince's back will slightly stop Empress Yvonne.

He might want to stop the collusion between Dubbled and Empress Yvonne.

My aunt also nodded as if Adrian was the best choice.

But my father and brothers don't look good. Especially Johann's expression.

He grabbed my hand and asked, “Why?” sneakily.

"Have you forgotten?"

“……?”

"You're with me. .. It's okay."

I'm staring.

Isaac muttered, and narrowed his forehead.

"That's weird."

Henry asked in a small voice.

"What?"

"I was so frustrated because I thought I was going to lose something very valuable."

"Preasure your mouth. We're in the palace. ”

“They can't hear me.”

***

My father and brothers were in a bad mood even after dinner. I held my aunt's hand and walked while looking at my family.

"Should I choose the first prince?"

"No. You made the right decision."

"Is that so?"

But why are they this scary?

I think so and see them?

'This is not the time. I'll go back and summon the demons in this gem…'

And when I left the palace, the wind blew.

“Now spring. What kind of wind is this?”

shouted Isaac.

Henry looked at me and asked affectionately, "Is there dust in your eyes?" and my father gave me his coat.

While my family was doing that, I looked up into the air with a stiff face.

"That's…"

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"What the hell is going on?"

"Babies?"

"Blaine?"

I looked at my family with trembling eyes.

"Can't you see that?"

That guy's in the air.

The man who was looking at us with a sharp look.

"What are you talking about?"

When Isaac asked, I shouted.

"Get out of here!"

In the man's hands, the spark condensed into a huge circle and flew towards us!
