The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Traveling to the Past (3)

"Where are you hurt?"

“…….”

Every time I looked at her, a strange feeling appeared again and again. Maybe because I will be part of his family in the future.

Is it because I have met someone who is very valuable to the person I love?

I don't know why, but I feel like crying.

At that moment, the monster bird thrashed.

“Eh!”

Lea staggered backwards, and Adrian's divine power chain broke off as blood dripped from his wrist.

I was shocked and reached out to him.

"Advertising"

“Come go first.”

Lisette dragged me along as we started running.

Adrian, Lea and Cecilia ran behind us.

But once the monster set its target, it flew quickly and followed us up close.

Lea and Cecilia looked back and stopped walking.

"We'll lure him down the mountain first."

I was surprised by Lea's words.

“You can't!”

I shouted, but Lea shook her head.

Lisette looked at Lea's face and nodded.

“I won't let you die. Come back alive.”

“When have I ever let you down? Trust me."

Lea laughed, and Cecilia nodded in agreement.

'No, how could he face monsters without help or witches!'

Lea and Cecilia ran towards the monster bird.

I hurriedly tried to grab Lea, but was restrained by Lisette.

“Nak, stop..!”

"let go. Let me go! Lea, Lea!”

Just then, Adrian walked up to me and hugged me.

"No."

Even though I fought hard, Adrian didn't let me go and held me back as we ran. Lisette's behind us.

The roar of the monster bird could be heard from afar, so Lea and Cecilia seemed to be holding the monster well.

Just when we reached a valley, Adrian dropped me off. I looked towards the roar with a restless expression.

Adrian grabbed my shoulder, as I glanced behind him.

When I turned my eyes, I saw Lisette, who was panting.

There was blood dripping down the road that he was on.

'Blood…'

She just gave birth to her youngest child. It's only natural that his condition will worsen after all this has gone on.

As proof, his face turned blue. As if he was out of breath.

I approached her carefully to ask her her condition.

"How are you doing"

"I'm fine."

He was a person in bad shape, yet he was still worried about me.

“Where did you get hurt? What happened to your blood?”

“More than me, Lisette.....”.

She smiled and stroked my hair.

Just then, the clouds covering the moon lifted up, and a bright moonlight shone on it.

Now I can see his face properly.

'A…….'

Her blonde hair and dazzling green eyes fascinated me, regardless of her current state.

She's as beautiful as in her portrait. However, there was a very special atmosphere he had that could not be captured in portraits.

"Son."

He really looks similar to Johann when he smiles. And his eyes were similar to Henry's, while the shape of his nails and moles on his neck were the same as Isaac's.

I hesitated and said.

"But……."

“You don't have to worry. I have a secret that no one else knows.”

"Confidential?"

“I was born and sought in the temple, but I also have a very helpful power.”

Lisette whispered to me with a playful face.

“I can see the future.”

"What?!"

I widened my eyes in surprise.

'Does he really have that kind of power?'

That's a surprising thing to know. After she married my father and became Duchess of Dubbede, she did not do any outside activities.

People said that she was just an ordinary person and bought her identity before marriage, so she wanted to completely hide herself, but I had a different opinion.

'That's how Dubbede's people protect her!'

Yes, protection.

If my family restricts his activities outside to protect him from the temple.

'How did you become the head of the family?'

Of course, my father was a capable man. However, back then, all my older brothers were taken hostage by their predecessors. In other words, his predecessor still had much greater power. Then, if Lisette had helped my father with his strength, then she would probably have helped him land the role.

He spoke to me as I set my mind in confusion.

"I know the weather tomorrow, I know where special plants will grow, I know who will love me and I know when I will die."

Meanwhile, I stared blankly at him.

“Mrs!”

Reina who was carrying the baby ran towards us.

He looked at her urgently and said.

“Don't worry about me.”

“How could I not worry! your body is tense as soon as you give birth! You can really kill me with a heart attack!”

Raina cried and shouted as Lisette grinned. Reina, who was glaring at Lisette, heaved a sigh of relief. He then carefully handed the baby over to Lisette and asked with a smile.

"Have you decided on the baby's name?"

"Yes." Yeah."

lisette said, gently stroking the child's cheek.

“Leblaine.”

Whahuh?

His gaze turned to me.

As if time had stopped, and there was only me and Lisette in this world, we looked at each other without a word.

Then, he said,

"I already know."

“…….”

“I also know that my precious son will come visit me today.”

She smiled sweetly, and I stood still in surprise.

"What do you say .. what ..."

When I asked that question, Lisette's eyes turned red.

"I can't wait to see you for a long time."

“…….”

"You've grown a lot, Leblaine."

Lisette, who was holding her baby, pulled out her blanket.

When the baby was seen, I could see it clearly. She has light brown hair and a mole on the neck. Even though he hasn't opened his eyes, I know for sure.

If the eyes under the eyelids are the same color as me.

"Well…"

As my legs lost strength, Adrian hurriedly supported me.

“Leblaine...”

"……That's me."

“…….”

“That was me all this time.”

Why didn't I notice this?

Why didn't anyone tell me?

Why don't I know about the miracle that happened to me?

If my father is here, I want to tell him.

Now you don't stand alone sadly holding a child's shoe. Don't be heartbroken because you can't protect her. Because he's been by your side all this time. I'm their youngest daughter.

***

Lisette returned the baby to Raina, and said.

“Come, Nak.”

Lisette smiled at me, who gripped my skirt tightly without knowing what to do. Adrian patted me on the shoulder a little, so I walked towards him.

“You really have grown so much. Look, you used to be a little baby who couldn't do anything.”

“…….”

"Do you know how sad I am because I can't tell your father about your birth?"

He snickered and rubbed his nose into my nose.

"I ..... I ......."

“Sorry I can't be by your side.”

“…….”

"I'm sorry I just found out about the hardships you're facing this morning."

“..... Mo.”

She clasped my hand tightly and said with tears in her eyes.

"I'm sorry I can't be by your side, son."

"……His..Mama."

I said words I had never said before.

It was a strange feeling for me, who had never cried for my mother before.

Adrian and Reina seemed to have known the situation through our conversation.

Adrian, who came straight to the past with me, just lowered his head with a grim face, and Reina pursed her lips in disbelief.

"Cannot be. Things like that…"

That time,

"I found you."

A sinister voice echoed through the valley.

'Heavy armored man!'

Looks like the person who got my blood didn't die and found us.

His shoulder was bitten by a monster bird. It gives me goosebumps.

Mom quickly protected me, and Adrian stopped the man.

Adrian's expression hardened, giving strength to his hand.

"Shoppers……."

'Oh no, my holy power...'

I can't make a barrier.

I can only hold etwal in despair.

'Pur.'

Pur's! But no matter how much I called him, there was no answer.

'What should I do? What should I do…!'

The heavy armored man raised his hand. However, there was something engraved on the back of his hand.

'Tattoo red sign .......'

Then I realized. The identity of the 'tattooed man' who has been tormenting me and my family.

'He survived using magic and the remains were left on the back of his hand!'
