The Baby Who Raised the Devil

The Destruction of Vallua (3)

I immediately pushed Isaac, who was staring at me.

Gwang—!

"What's that?"

Surprised by the sudden sound, people looked around.

"What is thunder?"

“It's silly. No rain, what thunder..”

My family found the source of the voice, but they didn't seem to see anything.

I looked at the man in the air.

'What is that strange thing? '

The man's eyebrows shot up, as if he understood me.

At that moment, I remembered a summoner I saw in Vallua's secret warehouse.

'What is a demon?'

[That's it, stupid creature!]

A roar sounded.

'I know that!'

I bit my lips tight.

The fact that the devil is here must mean Vallua called back the demon who was aiming for me or my family.

My family can't see the devil. Even if they were to realize it, they would not be able to resist the demons.

That means I have to protect them.

'But I cannot use magic.'

It was forbidden to use magic in the imperial palace without the emperor's permission.

If that happens, I'll be in trouble.

I grabbed the nogak in my hand.

And I gave a very small amount of divine power.

That time,

'What? Why not respond?'

I added divine power again, but there was still no response.

'Isn't that the real thing?'

But I feel the same power in jewels like Boone and Pymon.

Moreover, if this was an ordinary gem, there was no reason why the church would go so far as to obtain this gem.

Once again there was a spark in the hands of the devil.

Now the devil sees my father.

"No!"

I screamed in front of my father.

As soon as I made a barrier, something like a fireball flew towards us.

Gwang gwang gwang—!

My barrier and demonic-power clashed.

“Leblaine!”

My aunt came running in surprise.

"What are you doing? The magic in the Imperial Palace is...!

“Don't come here!”

"What?"

“Stay behind, please!”

It seems my barrier will be broken soon. It felt like my whole body was burning.

I knew once the demonic-power collided with my barrier.

I will never be able to defeat that demon.

Gwang—!

“Argh!”

Unable to overcome the difference in strength, I was thrown backwards, and my family ran while shouting, "Leblaine!"

Thrown to the wall, I groaned and crouched down. I tried to get up quickly, but my legs were unable to move properly. I grabbed the communication device in my pocket.

“What happened..bocil..”.

Isaac looked at me in surprise.

I looked at the devil and said, 'I,

"I'm going to kill you. If you touch these people, I'll kill you.”

[How could an ordinary human girl do that to me?]

The devil, who had an arrogant smile, gently landed on the floor and approached me. I pulled myself.

“Even if I die a hundred times and survive, I will kill you. You…!"

The smiling demon raised his eyebrows.

[That's funny, son. Now, which one should I kill to make you more angry?]

The devil, who looked around my family slowly, looked at my father who was holding my shoulder with his knees bent.

[He looked desperate. Would it hurt you if I killed him?]

The devil smiled eeriely.

[Is he the most important person? Uhuh?]

I stood in the way of the devil and begged him.

“I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'll do everything. I'll do everything you say. Don't kill him. Please." Please."

My family looked at me with confused expressions on their faces, and my father saw me crying and begging.

"What's there?"

[They are human beings with incredible senses. Is that intuition?]

That's when the devil pointed his sharp fingernails at my father's neck, something flashed in my hand.

'Stop!'

A long-range teleportation device appeared in my mind, and an amethyst, which the chairman had, was delivered to my hand.

I immediately lifted the amethyst.

[That...!]

'You think I'll just sit there and wait for death?'

As soon as I fell down earlier, I sent a signal to the chairman and waited for him to send me an amethyst.

Of course, now that I am severely lacking in strength due to the use of holy power to stop the demons, my life will be in danger if I summon the demons within the amethyst.

But I know from my experience with Boone.

what Boone wants is probably the devil's journey. He picked it up and said, “Finally my master..” I'm so happy.

Amethyst is a very powerful part. It was clear that this contained a powerful demon.

That means it can be a threat if the Devil encounters something much stronger than them.

[It's ridiculous. I can read your mind.!].

'Then you know my intentions. If you don't back down, I'll give up my life and summon the amethyst demon.'

The devil clicked his tongue.

But, after I said so, the demon retreated.

'I, I thought I was going to die.'

When I relaxed my body, I finally felt pain.

I didn't feel it before, but I thought my head broke when I hit the wall. My forehead is full of blood.

"Dad…"

After I muttered, The imperial magician and the knights, who sensed my magic ran towards us.

Clangs!

The swords of the knights were aimed at me with a sharp voice.

The witches behind them tried to create a barrier.

"What are you doing? Get rid of it now!”

Isaac shouted, but the knights were still facing me.

I'm sure they're like this because I'm a sinner who uses magic in the palace.

***

A smile appeared on Duke Vallua's face when he heard the news from his lieutenant.

Laughing loudly, he lightly placed his glass on the table.

"Yes, the girl was provoked."

“The Dubbled family moved desperately to save him. But that won't be possible.”

It was regrettable that the girl did not die in front of Theodore's eyes, but rather pleased to hear that she was in prison.

The use of magic in the imperial palace was a crime equivalent to treason.

There will be an investigation to uncover its purpose. There was no way a child could withstand the torment of the knights, so it would be death or a false confession.

“If that happens, I will be able to destroy what is valuable in Dubbled.”

Duke Vallua smiled and looked at Hayton Vallua in the corner.

"Are you unhappy, son?"

“……”

"I'm asking you."

"What?! Yes.....ya...really once.”.

Hayton held onto his pale face with his trembling hands.

'Crazy..it's crazy!'

He had noticed something happening underground since he was a child, but this was the first time he had actually witnessed it.

"My dad's crazy."

Calling non-human beings is more sinful than Dubbled's adopted daughter.

Back then, Hayton, who was smarter than his friends, knew.

It is a ritual that requires human sacrifice.

But where does he have all those human sacrifices?

'If it's kidnapping or human trafficking, our family is....'

Hayton bit his lip

Standing beside him, Niel looked at her father with eyes filled with fear.

"Sister…"

“Don't say anything about this.”

"But…"

Niel looked around with frightened eyes and whispered to Hayton.

"Where's mom?"

“……”

"They said he never came out, but no matter how many times I looked for him ..."

"Darling……! Ahh, William Vallua! I will curse you! You, you.......!!”

Hayton's face grew grim.

***

I threw my hand out of the prison bars and said.

"Please give me some food."

“……”

“Food, please!”

The knight guarding the prison looked at me with a puzzled look.

"You're the only sinner who eats three meals a day and snacks."

"But my father told me not to starve."

“……”

"Dad. My papa. Duke Dubbled.”

“I'll bring it to you..”

During my two days in prison, I ate well and slept well. The food of the imperial palace was delicious, and the blankets were quite thick. The pillow was so soft that I could sleep well.

'This is the advantage of having power.'

The palace seemed to be trying to do everything with the procedure, but as soon as I was tied to the chair, I cried and said,

“Huaaa! Daddy's! Auntie! godmother! Empress Dowager! Huaoo! You guys are too many! Sir Rigel Couldern, Imperial Knight's 4th Division! Count's sister Couldern! She lived. Two sons! The boy's name is...!”

When I said that, the person I mentioned earlier, who was in charge of me turned pale and fled.

As a result, the person in charge of me has changed for the fourth time.

If I were to be released, there was no way I would let the person who did not treat me well go.

I slipped out of jail.

'All right, there's no one here.'

I quickly gave a bribe to the knight and went somewhere.

'I was very surprised yesterday that I couldn't do it right, so now again ...'

Then, I gave holy power to nogak.

Gwang!

The prison suddenly shook.

After the wind blew inside the prison, where there were no windows, a pillar of fire appeared just like the moment I called out to Boone.

'What, it worked!'

But why hasn't it worked before?

[You finally called me. It's nice to meet you. I am the 25th pillar, Glashalla Bol...you!!”]

Me and the devil, who made eye contact, opened our mouths simultaneously.

[You are you.!].

"Ah. That's why it didn't work before. “

I glared at the demon in front of me.

It was the devil that almost killed me and my family before.

Shamed, he stuttered.

[So, before I don't know what happened, oh, he said. Then, what I... You know, I can't hold it because of work? Work?]

"OKAY. Can you sit and be quiet?”

You'redead.
