The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Mysterious Sounds (7)

As I stared at his wound, he laughed awkwardly.

“That's bad, isn't it?”

“…….”

Even though I didn't cry, Lea left restlessly, saying she would bring medicine.

“How about we continue the class? The tower was built three hundred years ago by the Duke at the time in honor of his ancestors. “

It was a strange looking tower.

It was not built for accommodation or any other purpose. It was just like a symbol.

There was only a ladder inside, no room. There was only a beam of sunlight even without a lamp, which was managed by mana.

"Wow!"

"Do you want to go up?"

"Yes!"

Seria chuckled as she glanced up the stairs.

"Why?"

“You remind me of my sister.”

“Sewia must be a good pewrfum.” (Seria must be a good older sister.)

"I'm not."

"Not.you are amazed ”(Not.you)

I climbed the stairs and saw Seria.

"You killed a noble with him." (You killed a noble for him.)

“……..!”

Face hardened.

Checkmate.

***

"I just hope it's not you."

The evidence is that the wound on his leg was caused by a fire.

I've seen it at the slave auction house. All the slaves had the same mark on their feet.

'It was at the feet of the man who tried to attack me.'

Seria also gets an accent.

Noxstone Accents.

“The dead nobleman was actually a slave trader. Seria, your regional slave was sold by that noble.”

It was not common for a noble to earn for the elderly and the weak.

She was a slave raised by nobles, so Seria could enter the mansion alone.

"How can... how can I do that …. ”

Seria, who was looking at me with trembling eyes, immediately burst into laughter.

“I think you heard it from the duke. I also don't think I can hide it for a long time. I got caught sooner than I expected. ”

I rolled my eyes.

I've prepared an excuse.

"really so. He deserves to die.”

“…….”

"Nobody knows he's an asshole, even selling kids as slaves."

Seria clenched her fists.

“Kids who know nothing will wait for him to save them even after they are sold..same as me.”

“……..”

“But I'm lucky. I work at his house. So I sold out after my teenage years, and I realized more than any other kid. The real nature of that damn guy.”

Seria said she ran away with all her might. He went to the facility to save the other children, but many of them had been sold.

"Children who are not fit for sale are pitiful."

I know you killed a noble.

'But why should you come to Dubbled?'

Seria kneels in front of me.

“Small girl, an ordinary administrator like me can't see the duke. Please help me meet him!”

"If dyke finds out, you'll die!"I said with great surprise.

Do you think a man without blood or tears will save his life because he has a sad past?

“I have to find my brothers who have sold.”

"What?"

“I heard from one of his subordinates. I don't know why, but he must have said he'd go to the Dubbled.” area

At that time, a lot of things came to my mind. The special eyes that were staring at me, an unusual fondness for children. Injuries throughout the hand.

“Jacob..

That's when I muttered.

"How do you know?"

A voice came from under the stairs. That was when Seria suddenly raised her head. He jumped in an instant and grabbed his neck.

“Aduh...!”

Then, he lowered her down the stairs.

Dark red blood gathered around Seria, who rolled down the high stairs. Jacob stared.

"Huh? How do you know?”

I bit my lips tight.

The tower I was in now was far away from the main castle. It was just a symbol, so it was an area where knights did not patrol.

There's no one else. I need space to talk to Seria, and I'm sure she'll never attack me.

Jacob approached slowly. "Aren't you going to tell me?"

"My customers told me not to destroy you, but to take you there."

I glared at him as he muttered in a very sad tone.

"If you come back this time, they'll kill you first."

But what is the best way to avoid a painful death?

Falling from the tower? Tongue bite?

'Sir, you must die before you are caught.'

It was clear that Jacob's 'customer' was a crazy pervert, so it was very dangerous for him to be arrested.

'It would be better for him to fall and die.'

I rushed to the window but Jacob was faster. He grabbed my collar and said,

“Will be fun playing with you.”

That was.

A familiar voice came in.

'Lea!'

There was also Yuni behind him. I shouted in a hurry

"Run fast!"

These two women could not beat the adult men. Most importantly, Jacob was experienced, judging by the way he handled Seria.

It's even worse if the two died together to protect me. But they don't move. As soon as I was about to shout again, Lea narrowed the distance between her and Jacob. Lea jumped up and grabbed his shoulder.

He grabbed his neck quickly and tightened his grip.

'How….!'

Jacob's face was flushed red as if he could not breathe. As he slowly lost his strength, Lea threw him against the wall and he fell to the floor.

I was so shocked that my head hit the wall and fell.

“Small phone!”

Lea ran towards me.

"Are you okay? Sorry, it's been a long time since I've done anything wrong.”

I looked at him in amazement

"Oh no, your forehead is red."

Yuni ran to where Jacob had fallen and asked him.

“Which organization are you from? Are you from Malta? Orca from the Brown Wolf? If not, Karutano?”

Yuni who was usually cheerful and beautiful today was very different.

The names of drug gangs, human trafficking organizations, and murderers appear in succession, with a unique dialect. Then she grabbed her hair and slammed it on the floor, and I seemed to hear her head break.

"Oh, yeah, let's get your gut out."

Seeing Jacob being beaten up like a dog, I suddenly came to my senses.

“...... Lea, you are not a waiter?”

Lea quickly shook her hand.

“I'm a waiter!I was just stuck in some stuff back then. ”

"Where?"

“The elite knights Dubbled, for a while its······. “

The elite Dubbled knights used Aura in battle. Rumor has it that more than 100,000 people have been deployed to finish the battle in 15 days. You mean Dubbled's best knight ?

I gulped as my mouth dried and asked.

“Yun too?”

"No. Yuni has a brief history of being in an organization before she entered the castle...”.

Then Yuni made an excuse out of embarrassment.

"I've just done a small business in finance!"

If it is a financial business, what is a money lending business?

Yuni explained to me as her two hands shook as she made an excuse, and threw the confused Jacob aside.

"But I still have the fewest gifts among the servants who serve you!"

··· so Dahlia and Linda are also criminals?

I realized I was ignoring one thing.

The Dubbled family ignored the identity and origin of their employees.

In other words, criminals may have been jumbled.

'Oh, this must be why the Dubbleds region is called the lair of bad guys.'

I nodded blankly.

“I have just preached the teachings of God. There are people in the world who need God's guidance.”

said serial killer Dahlia, who has killed about a hundred rapists.

“My family has been poor since I was young, and we never eat good food.”

These are the words of Linda, who has darkened the annual budget of many landlords.

“Don't be disappointed, little miss!”

"Now, we live life with regret!"

I nodded with dim eyes.

"It's okay."

But the servants cried because they thought it was empty words.

'It's okay'

Technically, I was also a murderer before I went back in time. That's a false accusation.

"That's not important now."

Leah walked into the room with a stiff face.

"Master is looking for you."
