The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Brother Johann ?! (6)

"What, why are you looking at me like that?"

Elizabeth snapped and frowned, as the women quickly turned around.

Zachary, who was assigned to guard the party today, approached me and whispered.

“They women are softer than I thought. I think they won't do much today”

"Why?"

"You're trying to isolate Lady Nodelli at today's party, aren't you?"

“That's true, but she will be isolated naturally.”

I shrugged my shoulders.

It wasn't the women who would hurt Elizabeth just because of my sisters.

No inferior person is jealous and vulgar just because he or she is more likely to be with someone they love.

“Nona Nodelli, please sit here. Ladies table over here.”

Not because of that, Elizabeth would be exiled because of her attitude.

"Miss Nodelli, this way. This is Lady.”'s table

“I saw you the other day, didn't I? How are you?”

There are so many friendly people here. They extend a hand first if the child feels uncomfortable.

Elizabeth looked on happily. Then he hovered around Johann and said,

"Excuse me……."

"Please talk."

"Everyone must be uncomfortable with Elizabeth coming to the party."

"Who knows."

As Johann walked to the other side, Elizabeth chased after him and said like a child.

“Women don't like Elizabeth for a reason. My mom says they're jealous because Elizabeth is cute.”

Johann lifted his glass and looked back at Elizabeth, "So?" The boy was blabbering with a timid face.

"I didn't come here with my mom so I'm scared, please stay with me."

“You need not fear.”

"If I go to the table over there, it'll piss them off."

The women whose consideration was thrown in front of their faces hardened.

Johann came to me with a glass of drink.

"Your cheeks are red."

I'm a little excited because it's nice to see things go the way I want. But deftly I hid my thoughts and pressed my cheeks.

“I must be nervous because this is my first party!”

"Drink."

"Yes." Yeah."

“I can only stay here until the first round.”

"It's gonna be okay."

The first part is a party for young women, but the second part is a larger party with the arrival of the women.

'Even without Johann, it's easy to make a crack at a party if there's a woman.'

As I smiled widely, Johann smiled faintly.

Elizabeth glared at me, clinging to Johann's back. But when Johann turned around again, he followed him.

Zachary chuckled in silence.

"What do you see?"

“Because I'm an enviable person, they must be jealous. Even if I don't do anything. ”

Elsewhere, she would cry, saying she was criticized by the women. Then no matter how friendly the women were, they could not help but explode. Even if they have been arrested.

I laughed cynically and took a sip of the drink Johann gave me.

***

The party, which from the beginning was very beautiful, was always full of life. Leblaine prepares a small game to play, which leads to a friendly atmosphere throughout the party.

"This time again, Miss Hadelro is number one."

“I like games. I play games with my family after dinner on the weekends. I also play chess.”

“Yeah, next time I want to play chess with Miss Hadelro.”

Leblaine grinned at Henry.

“I heard Miss Hadelro is good at playing games! Henry is also great at chess!”

“I like it. You have good taste. ”

“R, really? Me, I'm happy....”.

“My brother plays chess better than me. Isn't that right, brother?”

When Johann nodded lightly, Elizabeth said,

“Elizabeth said she likes blue, so Her Majesty put up all the festival flags in blue! Her Majesty listens to whatever Elizabeth says.”

Again, the atmosphere is friendly. As long as there is no Elizabeth Nodelli.

Elizabeth never ignored the conversation between the three nobles and the little ones.

“Henry, Henry. Come to my house next time. It has a very beautiful chess board. The state envoy gave it to the Empress Dowager, and Elizabeth wanted it, so she gave it to me.”

“If I have a chance.”

“Isaac, teach Elizabeth the sword. I have a warrior sword. The emperor gave it to me. She adores Elizabeth very much.”

"Please shut up, I beg you."

"You're bad! But I'll forgive you! Oh, Johann! Where are you going? You're not leaving me alone, are you? Scary when there are only young.”

The women, who had been expecting to meet the three brothers, looked depressed.

They did not go to parties or private events, so there would be no chance to chat except today.

Elizabeth acted as if she was Lady Dubbled.

"Your majesty!"

One of the young women gathered her courage and called out to Henry.

“I, I.... Thank you for catching me who almost fell at the last hunting festival. Ah me-!"

“Lady Hera Dimitri”'s

"D, do you remember me?"

“Of course, your uncle is the cardinal.”

"Elizabeth knows Miss Dimitri!"

"I heard you came last in the seminary."

“I, I'm not the last……. That was the second of the last.….”

“It's same. Don't you think so, Henry? For smart people like us, that's still the last place. Doesn't he look like a fool?”

Lady Dimitri lowered her head while crying.

Elizabeth humiliates them by bringing up everything that happened and didn't happen. Give up on the opportunity to talk.

Johann's followers frowned.

"Miss Nodelli's overreacting today."

Lady Shevyne threw the board game dice, staring at Elizabeth, who humiliated the women repeatedly at the party.

Elizabeth is the youngest in society as people usually make their social debut around the age of 9-10. It was not just because he was the emperor's nephew that forgave such haughty behavior. It was a generous act for the youngest new socialite.

"What are you going to do Miss Shevyne, will you wait and see?"

Alexandra Shevyne looked at Elizabeth, shouting as if the three nobles were having a seizure as they approached Leblaine, and the others looked at her.

“...I can't just wait and see.”

Another woman frowned and said,

"Don't do that, he'll say we're jealous and the enemy of women is women."

Alexandra, who put the dice to the table with a voice, smiled.

“If I was afraid of maggots, I wouldn't be able to socialize from the beginning.You know I will protect my friends, why should I be afraid of low-quality words. ”

When Alexandra joked, saying, "We are all friends who love three brothers" Another woman laughed and said, "We are all friends,

“As expected, the youngest to register in a battalion of different white horses.”

Alexandra, who sipped her tea, flipped her empty teacup.

Then the other young women followed him one by one and started flipping the empty teacup.

Leblaine, who was looking at the situation from afar, raised the corner of her mouth.

"It's started."

This is the act of expressing displeasure at a party.

Isaac's followers also turned the teacup upside down.

Henry's followers, who were generally gentle and friendly, hesitated. But.

“Ap, what's wrong with you guys? You envy Elizabeth! Look, mister. I'm so scared……."

As Elizabeth wept and rebuked the women, Henry's followers turned over his teacup.

In an instant, the tea cups on all the tables were turned upside down. That means they won't continue the party unless the unpleasant thing is settled.

Leblaine is ready for now.

“Lady Nodelli-”

Then Alexandra interrupted us.

“Sorry, Miss Dubbled. Can you give me a chance to talk this time?"

"Huh?"

Alexandra looked at Elizabeth, hiding Leblaine behind her back.

"Please come back today so you don't ruin Miss Dubbled's party."

"What?! What are you talking about, I....!”.

“I won't forgive any more interruptions at Miss Dubbled's first party. Back."

“How can you humiliate Elizabeth like this......!!”.

"Stop!"

Low heels echoed through the quiet place. Alexandra smiled as she approached Elizabeth up close.

“Don't make me say it three times. Today is the last day we will be generous to the youngest.”

“……!”

Elizabeth, who was biting her lips hard, looked around trembling. Like looking for help.

But no one defended her, they were fed up with Elizabeth's behavior.

Elizabeth, humiliated in front of Johann, cries and leaves the party.

Leblaine sang happily to herself.

A child's quarrel will be an adult's fight.

Marquis Nodelli, who loved his daughter dearly, could not keep quiet when Elizabeth was again humiliated.

Then the old lady here will step up. The other young women lowered their eyebrows while staring at Alexandra.

“Thank you for stepping up for us. But Princess Ingrid is coming soon, are you okay?”

Then, Leblaine said with a big smile.

“Nona Shevyne”

"Yes?"

"You stepped up for my party, and this time I want to do something for Miss Shevyne."

“……?”

Just in time, a musical sound came out to mark the end of the first half.

The women in the waiting room started to enter the party one by one.

Leblaine politely sat Alexandra down and greeted the women. Princess Ingrid appeared amidst the crowd of women.

At the same time.

"Dad……."

My father, who arrived at the park at my request, turned his head towards me.

“......Why do you look so sad?”

"That's……."

I glanced at Princess Ingrid in a very firm tone.

“Nona Nodelli made a mistake at the party. The ladies came for my first party, and I was worried they'd get mad.”

I told that to my father.

Father's eyes turned to Princess Ingrid.

Princess Ingrid, who was already embarrassed by my words, turned pale.

'Is that embarrassing?'

Then go and make sure Elizabeth doesn't cry and complain to the empress and the emperor.

In the meantime, I will secure Suwon, and I will befriend the women so that I can take Vallua.
