The Baby Who Raised the Devil

The Blue Rose (4)

I curled up to my father as he smiled softly.

Those who saw Duke's affectionate expression were more shocked than when they heard '50 million francs.'

My father who gently stroked my back asked,

"But what do you want?"

I'm waiting for that word.

'People have heard about my allowance so .......'

I made an innocent expression.

"Something's up. I went to the shopping district fountain today. The chief told me the legend of the nymph. ”

"God?"

"Yes! There's a mysterious stone named Suwon in Nymph Lake. A long time ago, a warrior had a sword, a shield, and a suwon.”

The nobles nodded as they listened to my story.

"What is the legend of the tesla warrior?"

“I know the story of the warrior and the devil. I remember asking my parents to buy a Tesla sword when I was a kid.”

"It's from our time, kids don't know it these days."

I raised my hand and continued.

"Dad is the strongest in the world, right?"

"Yes." Yeah."

“Soldiers are the strongest people in the world. My father was the strongest fighter. So I'll buy suwon!”

Then people laughed out loud.

"I think I know why Dubbled spoiled that kid so much."

"Daughters like this are so funny."

Doesn't it? Didn't I act like a child.

The old soul that retreated these three times to the past was embarrassed but I ignored it and laughed inwardly.

I laughed and stroked my head.

"really? Let's see if my daughter can get suwon.”

"Yes!"

Hugging my father's neck, I smiled brightly.

"I'll definitely have it."

Express ticket to bring Dubbled up.

***

I came to the mansion with my father and the chairman.

Dad was in a good mood all the time.

“I'll go there.”

"Yes." Yeah."

After speaking with a smile, I dragged the chairman into the mansion greenhouse.

"Tell Curtis to spread the rumor soon."

"Rumors?"

“Rumors that I tried suwon at Lake Nymph. My dad gave me over 50 million francs.”

"That's why you purposely mentioned it in front of everyone?"

“All noble battles begin with a fight of public opinion.”

I raised my head as the chief laughed.

“You're wise. If the rumors come out, Marquis Nodelli might be scared and give up. ”

In this case, there is no need to compete to buy with Nodelli from the start, so the price will not go up.

Hopefully, it will be possible to buy a mine with half the original budget, or even less.

“Also, hyenas will hear rumors about nymph lake. If rumors come out about me buying an abandoned mine, the owner of the abandoned mine will hastily ask me to buy it. ”

"I'll let Curtis know what's going on."

I'm nodding.

The problem was Seria was not in the hope merchant guild right now.

Marquis Nodelli has already started buying up abandoned mines. Rumors had to be spread before they invested too much money and it became difficult to obtain it.

'Would Curtis be able to carry out my orders as thoroughly and as quickly as Seria?'

However, contrary to my concerns, Curtis's progress exceeded Seria's.

In just three days, rumors spread throughout the entire empire.

It's also very satisfying.

A few days later.

While walking down the street, I heard people gossiping.

"You said Duke Dubbled was trying to find a nymph lake for his daughter?"

“Should I call this funny or romantic..?”.

"If it's Duke Dubbled, isn't that possible?"

With a laugh, I raised the corner of my mouth.

"I put my father's name in front of the rumors."

Nice work, Curtis!

The rumors swelled and spread faster as they became entangled with those in power.

Since Duke Dubbled is one of the rumored ones rather than Lady Dubbled, there's no one who doesn't know that"Dubbled is after suwon"

'I think I have a lot of luck in this life.'

I smiled with my hands covering my mouth, as the godmother by his side asked,

"You must be in a good mood today."

"Yes." Yeah."

"That's a relief."

"My godmother looks happy too."

“Things that worry me are done.”

He covered his mouth with a fan, but his eyes were gently bent.

I asked him calmly.

“About your daughter-in-law?”

“You're smart.”

Camilla and I became very close. He told me a lot

interesting story, but sometimes about his worries.

"Even the story of the Grand Duchess."

"His family finally moved, right?"

"Yes. It lasted for a long time.”

My godmother folded the fan because it made a sound.

"He's a scary person too."

Since the Grand Duchess's family would definitely become leeches after their marriage, she chased them away.

I don't know what method she used but the Grand Duchess's family, who was burning with the desire to move voluntarily meant it was definitely an extreme method.

"Good job."

When I said it, my godmother grinned and stroked my head.

"thank you. So, shall we go in?”

"Yes." Yeah."

Today is the day of a big social event, a charity party.

The event was organized by Lady Estera, who was close to the godmother, so my godmother and I also decided to participate in the charity party.

"You said my friends were coming, right?"

"Yes, and ... no, let's leave this as a gift."

I tilted my head, but my godmother turned away.

"You're going to attend the seminary, right?"

“Yes, When my brothers go to the academy this fall, I will go to the seminary.”

All noble children usually attended seminaries, Imperial Academies, or the Institute of Gifted People.

Seminary is an important educational institution for the nobles of the capital.

Geniuses like my elder brother went straight into talented schools, but most of them went to seminary first.

Also, the place was the best place to network as it was a school for all noble children.

'I decided to go to seminary and get an education.'

We can go in and out of the seminary accompanied by guards. So security is not an issue.

“You can introduce yourself to the children who will go to the seminary at the party today.”

"That's why they're all making a fuss about getting an invitation to this party!"

“Ya, the spring charity party is also a prearranged event for the seminary students to form a group.”

The godmother gently continued,

“Do not worry about anything.”

I smiled and put my face in her hands.

It was a good investment to have this godmother.

When I entered the party, the women lifted themselves up and greeted us.

My godmother smiled and nodded.

"Thank you for your hospitality. Everyone, sit down.”

I also greet others politely.

“Halo, Mrs Yucelta, Mrs Rodin,Mrs Ariwood.”

The women greeted me with big smiles.

“Nice to meet you, young lady.”

There were some familiar faces among the people who greeted me.

Since it was an event organized by a close acquaintance of the godmother, I knew a lot of people.

My godmother's people were all friendly and had good personalities.

I had no mother and they were watching me, so I didn't feel neglected at events with my godmother.

“Kids gather in the park there. Have fun together. Hm, do you want juice?”

"Thank you!"

I greeted a lot of people and went to the park.

"Lady!"

"Welcome. Comehere!"

'How can everyone be so nice and cute?'

I looked back at the excited kids.

Maybe they were told to take good care of me by their parents, but everyone really wanted to take care of me.

“Halo, miss.”

"Yes. Ah, you already bought juice..”.

A little girl with yellow hair had a pouting expression on her face, seemingly holding a juice for me.

"I can have two!"

“I have also prepared it..”.

"I can drink three cups!"

"Thank you!"

We laughed when I took the juice.

'Ah happiness ...'

The kids are cute, the park is beautiful, and everyone is nice.

'I feel like I've fallen into a sweet world.'

I'm so happy because I've never been close to my friends in the past.

'But because people's characters are different'

"You there, give me a seat."

"Soge away."

– there must be some unfriendly kids.

A woman with blond hair and dark spots on her cheeks was next to a woman with beautiful curly hair as they walked with an arrogant expression.

"Miss Yucelta and Miss Lloyd."

They came from strong families, so they were the leaders of the children at many parties.

Lady Yucelta grinned and grabbed my hand.

"Hello, Lady Dubbled."

"Hello."

“I watched virtual battles before. My father is the guardian of the imperial palace! How's Johan doing?”

On the other hand, Lady Lloyd held my other hand.

“You are amazing in virtual battles! But isn't Isaac here?”

From a distance, the sound of excited footsteps came towards me.

"Lady Hadero.”

“You remember me! I'm thrilled. How's Henry doing?”

Thanks to having three handsome older brothers, I was popular with girls.

The three children were flushed.

“Johan..

“Henry..

"Knight Isaac ......"

“Should I bring them here next time?…?”I said with an awkward expression.

"Please!"

I was surprised by their screams. The children grinned as I gasped.

"The three of them don't come to the party often."

“Yes, I'm curious because I can't see it often....”.

I smiled at them.

I know they're popular, but this much?

I asked because I was curious.

"Are my brothers very popular?"

The little ones scream in shock.

"Of course!"

“Of course, the three princes Dubbled are indeed...aah.”.

"Silver loneliness, Johann ......"

"Red melody, Henry."

"Dark charisma, Isaac!"

Whahuh?

I blinked because I felt an unpleasant premonition,

“Loneliness....what?”

“Lonely silver, red melody, dark charisma! They earned that nickname recently.”

“I don't know who made it, but it's a very nice nickname! Aren't you?"

It was a nickname that would make my older brother go berserk if they heard it.

I swallowed while imagining it, though,

That time,

“Halo, ladies!”

A blonde woman with a lively voice entered the garden.

I looked back in surprise.

'Lady Nodelli?'

Why is that girl here?

Princess Ingrid and Marquis Nodelli have never attended a godmother's event or any of her acquaintances because they do not have a good relationship.

Seeing me, Lady Nodelli tilted her head.

"Geez, what brings you here, Lady Dubbled?"

"Huh?"

“I don't think you can't attend this event. It's a mother-daughter event, and love... Wait, you don't have a mother, right?”

"……What?"

“Ah, correct. It's not just a mother you don't have.”

He looked at me from top to bottom.

'See this?'
