The Baby Who Raised the Devil

I'll Adopt You (4)

'He's a familiar man, from his looks.'

As soon as I tilted my head, I suddenly recalled my first life.

“ Please send me abroad. How long do I have to wait?"

'No way, is that him?'

The old man who came to visit late at night. He was the one who shouted so desperately in the middle of the night, who asked Duke Amity.

When I remembered who Teramore was, the sight of the day when I saw him passed through my head. The old man's urgent face, seen through the small door slit.

The butler's voice sounded

“It's your fault that you live in danger. You've been so mean to the kid and avoided his nanny's eyes, so it's understandable that he grew up and went after you.”

They'll all grow up eventually, violent offenders.

'Teramore has no children. Just who is it ….'

At that moment, Isaac had an intense staring contest with carrots, I suddenly remembered him.

'The only children Teramore can reach are Isaac and Henry ....'

And only three Confucius, the children who had the power, were enough to make Teramore beg to be sent to another country.

Thinking so, I shook my head inside.

'No way. He wouldn't be crazy to harass Duke's children, would he? Is that him?'

There are often stories of crazy tutors slapping their children's hands in the absence of a parent. They all went so far as to claim that it was a stick for their child's education. And it's not just a story. The butler came out when he stopped Duke Amity, who was trying to help Teramore escape.

“It happened where I live. The maid abused the child, and the teacher slapped the child in front of the other children. Parents are always late to know the truth. That's a terrible thing.”

Thinking about it makes me even more angry.

If Teramore was really abusing a child, which of the two?

According to the butler, there seemed to be one child being abused.

Henry's smart, so I don't think he can touch her that easily.

A child who makes illicit funds and invests in domestic and international situations cannot be easily abused.

Then Isaac?

Isaac seems to be much more impulsive than Henry, but he endured abuse until he was an adult?

'Or maybe the butler doesn't know. It could be both.'

Then, from the side, Nos called out to me.

“Small number?”

I looked at her with a worried face and she smiled.

“Does the food suit your taste? Should I ask them to give you another? ”

I replied, “No... It's yummy”.

'It seems like a wild guess, but let's just see.'

***

That afternoon.

I glanced close to the corner and found someone coming out the door and running away.

“Nyos (Nos.)”

I held on to her feet and looked up

Nos was surprised to see me for a moment, but immediately sat down laughing and squatting.

“What's up, little lady?

“That, I want to go. to temwpawt lawtiwhan (i want to go to the training ground)”

Henry and Isaac were locked up at the training ground after breakfast.

I had to go there to see the kids, but I didn't know where the training was.

Nos asked with his eyes wide open.

“Training place now?”

“Temw—pat—law—tiw—han! (Training place!)”

“This is training ground~”

“Temwpat—“

I held my waist, then sighed. The pronunciation of this bastard. My growth rate is naturally slow, so even if I practice a lot, I won't get any better.

"The servants told me not to take you to the training ground."

I closed my eyes tightly because he said it with regret. I put my hands together with a serious look. And looked at Nos with sparkling eyes.

“Towlong.(.Please.)”

Then Nos groaned.

Soon he grabbed me

“Come go, go”

Nos, who was carrying me, moved his steps.

When I arrived at the training ground, I saw Henry and Isaac wielding wooden swords. I jumped out of Nos' arms, and the children who saw me on such a day opened their eyes.

Isaac asked, though,

"Why are you here?"

“I'll go with Henly and Isyaac! (I'll play with Henry and Isaac!)”

“Oh me. Did you come here because you missed me?or bother me?”

Isaac said so, it seemed like it meant "follow me" and "be a good girl."

I walked with Henry and Isaac, looking over his sleeves and neck. No bruises or cuts on the neck. Not even on the ankle.

Under the arm….

'I don't know what a training wound or a beating wound is.'

In addition, both have scratches.

I couldn't find a big bruise. While I focused on seeing both of them, my body tilted as my eyes staggered.

'I fell down'

Someone gave me a hand.

“Job, Henly. (Thank you, Henry.)”

"Thank you back."

Henry smiled politely. He's building a wall…

"But I don't think he's a bad guy."

Even if they looked cold, they always answered back.

Isaac glanced at me, and said, "You can't even walk, idiot."

I trampled on the rock I caught and let it sink into the ground.

Then someone came to us. "Do you three play together?"

It was Teramore.

He leaned over and made eye contact with me.

“You're more adorable, from near.”

“….”

“My name is Austin Teramore. I've been with Dubbeds.” for a long time

“Come shake hands”

He held my hand and laughed.

“Kids hands are also very soft. “

I could feel the sharp look in his eyes. He looked at my hand and whispered.

“You're soft.”

“….”

“I don't think you need to be punished if you keep acting this gentle. don't you?”

He looked at me and the corner of his mouth was raised.

“In the future, I will help Master Henry in his studies. I'm here to say hello. Together in the study room–“

To take the kids?

'You can't do that.

I screamed loudly.

“No! Mylos!! (No! No!!)”

When he heard my screams, Nos, who was far away, immediately ran over.

Why would I take Nos without taking the other waiter to the training ground?

Since there is Lord Teramore in the castle, I need a close ally of the Duke who can protect the children.

Nos hardened when he saw Mr. Teramore.

"What's going on here?"

“I came to greet my cute students.”

"Are you in charge of education again?"

“I don't think there is anyone else who can help them with their talent.”

Teramore slowly stroked his beard and looked at the two children.

"I'd rather say hello next time."

When he said so, he lowered his head lightly and disappeared.

Nos looked at Teramore, who was moving away with a sharp gaze.

There is no need to search for abused children separately.

There's a kid who's gonna meet Teramore.

That was Henry.

***

The training of Henry and Isaac has resumed.

When Nos left, I sat on the chair he had arranged for me at the training ground and played with my skirt.

'What should I do now..'

Should I tell the duke?

But there's no evidence

What if he said they got bruises or cuts while training?

In this case, the abused child must tell him himself, but Henry seems to be hiding the abuse.

Otherwise, the boy could not get rid of Teramore.

'But why would Henry hide the cruelty of Teramore?'

I thought so, but at that moment, someone suddenly jumped up. I was very surprised as I looked at the source.

When Isaac took his sword,

Kugugugugu!

The ground shook, small rocks and dust floated around the child.

At that moment, Isaac stepped on the ground and quickly jumped to his feet, his sword instantly turning red.

'Yes God ... what?'

I knew Isaac used an aura, but I didn't know it was manifested at such an early age.

Does it make sense for such a young child, to use an aura?

I can't believe it even though I saw it with my eyes.

Isaac narrowed the distance at once, and the opponent quickly turned around in haste.

Isaac quickly hit his opponent's foot with his left, and before long his opponent had been knocked down.

"I have him."

He laughed and threw the sword with his aura as it flipped his wrist to receive it again. With a grin on his face, he lightly handled the sword filled with aura

It would be very burdensome but he handled it easily

Then, he went to the other side at once, and finally caught the opponent.

"I'm giving up!"

“No word surrender. If you face each other and lose, you will lose.”

'Klings!'

The opponent managed to dodge it, but the armor pierced by the sword containing the aura was broken.

Isaac really had no intention of letting her go. He raised his sword again.

I muttered casually at the terrible sight.

“Thinking.Frightening...)”.

Isaac jerks.

When he looked at me in surprise, he coughed in vain.

“It's not scary”

Then he threw out the sword and retreated from the opponent.

'The opponent is lucky.'

I'm glad Isaac quit.
