The Baby Who Raised the Devil

My Fucked-up life (5)

"I want a jewel!"

answer me cheerfully.

He grunts.

I think the devil can give me a lot of gems.

With his hands wrapped around his chin, he let out a loud sigh.

“We have different kinds of strength. Some can produce love, others can kill enemies. It's easy, but I don't have the power to make jewelry.”

“You can ask Iwbliws who can make jewelry.” (You can ask the devil who can make jewelry.)

Boone patted my nose and said,

"But we can't meet each other without other media."

“Ahh.”

I nodded and looked at Boone.

My eyes shone to show that I wanted jewelry.

After watching the man for a while, I nodded and asked what was most important.

"Lawlu, what do you want to do for me?" (What will you do for me?)

He raised the corner of his mouth.

The next day, in the greenhouse.

At breakfast, I put the stir-fried lamb I gave, into my mouth.

There's plenty of food on the table, but my fork always leads to meat. Then to another meat dish. Next, next, and next my hand towards the meat dish.

[Son, eat a well-balanced diet to make sure you are healthy.]

I could hear Boone's voice in my head.

I wonder what to do if he maintains his human form and someone sees him, but fortunately, it allows to make his body disappear.

'It's noisy.'

When I answered briefly, I could hear Boone sigh.

But I'm depressed too.

When summoning demons, holy power was very, very much needed, making it difficult for me to maintain my mature thinking process due to exhaustion.

I need to eat and sleep three or four times because of that.

I learned a lot about demon summoning from the question and answer session I had with Boone yesterday.

Demons must have special stones (or gems) to use as a medium.You can't just choose the demons you want and then call them.

When the devil is called, the stone (or gem) that is the medium loses its function.

3.Only one demon could be summoned at a time, and if one's wish came true, it would disappear.

During the summoning time, I was able to use demonic-powers through my holy power. However, since summoning and defending himself also uses holy power, I must make them disappear as quickly as possible.

If all my holy power is lost, I will go crazy.

Boone can 'call the souls of the dead.' But he needed a medium to manifest his ability, namely the tears of the Goddess.

'I hope Boone's ability is teleportation or something I don't know.'

Boone, who heard my thoughts again, sighed sadly.

But really, I'm the one who's really sad!

'How can I steal the Goddess' Tears?'

Of all people, only the church has it.

'The church that owns it is near here, should I steal it?'

My specialty as a beggar in my last life was stealing.

As soon as I thought about it, someone came to the greenhouse.

"Hello, little lady?"

My eyes widen.

It was Cattlea.

“How amazed are you hewe?” (How are you doing here?)

“Last night, I came out of the castle and fell. I was immediately transferred to the ward in the castle to receive treatment.”

"I understand."

I nodded and stuffed the last piece of lamb into my mouth.

Leah asked, "Do you want more?" I nodded, and he left.

Only Cattlea and I are left in the greenhouse.

He put his hands together and said, "Oh, right."

"I have good news."

"Newspaper?"

"Yes. The church is very happy to know that you have a very great holy power.”

"…..What's?"

“A letter has arrived telling you to come to the nearest church to check on your holy power. With that holy power, you may soon be called to the central church. Congratulations."

“….”

“I will take good care of you in the central church.”

Cattlea then stroked my hair.

“OK, stupid?”

'Baron and his wife must have told this story to the church.'

They failed yesterday, so they tried to evict me using the church.

Cattlea continued while hitting my cheek.

“…….”

I've seen enough people like Cattlea before.

Because he was just a kid, what he did didn't hurt me too much.

But I'm not very patient.

The good LeBlaine is now gone.

It happened when Cattlea hit my cheek once again.

“Aahh—!”

i'm exaggerating. Therefore, I fell out of the chair and shouted.

“Small number ?!”

The waiter and officers nearby rushed in.

Meanwhile, Henry came from across while holding a book.

"What the hell is going on?!"

I pointed to Cattlea.

"Shwe hit me." (He hit me.)

He turned pale and shook his head.

"Ap, what, .... No!"

Henry, who stepped up, grabbed Cattlea's wrist.

There was oil in his palm. It was meat oil on my face.

“No, I don't, I, it....!”.

This was just one of the many tricks I learned when I was a beggar, unfortunately I stayed alive by using many tricks such as blackmail and intimidation techniques.

'Don't mess with the king and bluff in this area, you bastard.'

***

Mr and Mrs Walston were summoned at once.

The couple was very surprised to see Cattlea in the greenhouse. Isaac and Henry glared at them with ferocious expressions on their faces.

"Mother!"

As soon as Cattlea saw the baron's wife, she cried, and the couple, hugged their daughter, and asked, she said,

"What the hell is going on?"

"Leblaine fell."

Henry's cool words made the baron's eyes harden, and Cattlea shouted.

“No, I was molested! I was just trying to remove the dirt from her face,...!”.

The baron suddenly looked at me and said,

“Small girl, don't overdo it! Are you going to hurt Cattlea again like yesterday? I'm afraid of Cattle-“

The slap!

Isaac slapped his cheek.

The man who was hit by the palm that carried a rough aura fell on the greenhouse grass.

He held her cheek in disbelief.

“Ap, what…..This...”.

"Look, I hit you."

Then Isaac proceeded to pick up a speck of dirt from Baron's face with his index finger and thumb.

"I cleaned it up."

"Huh?"

“If your daughter wants to clean the dust off the child's face, what will she use?”

“Of course your finger····.”

Isaac grabbed Cattlea's wrist, shook her shoulders, and stretched her out to the baron.

“Then how did your daughter get the oil in her palm?”

The baron gulped when he saw his palms twinkling.

When he could not answer, Isaac muttered,

"Oh, I have to give you another demonstration."

The baroness looked at her daughter with a surprised expression.

"Are you serious?"

“…….”

“Cattlea!”

Realizing that nothing would be forgiven, Cattlea bit her lips hard.

"I just want to pat her on the cheek!"

"Why do you do such a thing ?!"

It's not polite to touch others as you please, but worse to slap their cheeks.

Besides, I am the youngster of the Dubbled main family.

Cattlea glared at me with tears in her eyes.

“He's the bad one! He's lying!"

"You…."

“He's an ordinary orphan! She is much worse than me, I am the one who should be the young miss Dubbled! My mother, my father, and Mr. Roman, they all said the Duke had no choice but to accept me.!”.

The faces of the baron couple turned pale.

Cattlea's words were like bombs.

If you interpret those words maliciously, it is 'I tried to make a plan to overthrow the Duke.' In other words, this challenged the Duke's authority.

Isaac and Henry looked at Cattlea and the helpless baron.

"Send me. People who hurt LeBlaine will be punished.”

Isaac ran out of the greenhouse.

"Duke!"

Yes, tell your father.

Needless to say, the Walston family is devastated.
