The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Flower Ring (1)

As I tilted my head, Boone became pouty.

Why is he depressed again? I stabbed a strawberry with a fork, wondering what to do with this demon.

When I put a lot of whipped cream into my mouth, I was blown away by the combination of sour & sweet taste, and soft taste.

"I don't think I'm gonna get tired of this."

When I put the last strawberry in my mouth with a wail, the door opened.

That was Isaac.

“Let's see the prize!”

A bounty?

Henry, who followed, said, "Don't be surprised,"

As she gently wiped the whipped cream from my mouth.

“What gift?”

When I asked him, Isaac giggled.

Surprisingly I feel uncomfortable.

I stared between the two of them as I went to see the gift.

Giving gifts?… It is impossible.

Children's Day is over, so it's not a toy.

My birthday is far away.

So what gift are they talking about?

After I arrived at my destination, I did not feel anxious for anything.

In front of the duke, many followers stood with their heads bowed.

"Kill us, little lady!"

"Save us, little lady!"

One side shouted for the death penalty while the other side pleaded for help.

I turned my gaze and looked at Duke, Henry, and Isaac.

Duke looked at me with his eyes as if he liked what was going on, and Isaac looked proud.

"What's this…?"

“This is the people who previously tried to make duke adopt Cattlea Waltson.”

After hearing Isaac reply proudly, I saw them again.

Some had cuts and bruises. Most of them were fine, but if they were pressed over this then they would probably faint.

"So this…."

As I muttered, Isaac said, "Ah," and grinned.

“How many of you are missing? That's right, exactly three are missing, two are in the torture chamber, and one for the entire castle also see each month as an example.”

I hope to see the day when these people will eventually pay the price for their actions

But I never wanted anything like this.

“Dyuke,Henly, and Isyac.”(Duke, Henry, and Isaac)

Three people looked at me as I muttered their names.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Should I cut everyone's throat?"

Hearing Isaac's words, their faces became even paler.

"No!"

I said grimacing.

"I'll make you happy if you kill them." (I'll hate you if you kill them)

The three people who were targeted by those words were dumbfounded.

***

“I don't want a twist, I don't want a gwift. Tell them to gwo house!” (I don't want this, I don't want a gift. Get them home!)

As a beam of light shone on them, the condemned followers were deeply moved by Leblaine's words trying to paralyze the duke and his brothers.

Two days ago, after Leblaine was sent to church, the people of Dubbled were devastated.

All those involved in the Cattlea Walston case were taken to the castle.

“You-You, Your Majesty. Why were we brought here?”

When someone finally managed to speak in a loud voice but with trembling, Henry smiled sweetly and looked at them.

"You have committed a crime punishable by death."

“That's ridiculous! We just can't see the child of destiny controlling Dubbleds! So, we prefer to have a blood relative, Cattlea—!”

They dared to say that because they thought Dubbled would not dare to touch them.

They were all descendants of prestigious families with jurisdiction, who had long served for Dubbeds, so they could not be easily touched.

“AGGHH—!”

…..They think he won't touch them.

Until one of the elder's wrists was severed.

Theodore Dubbled has led the family for five years. Only then did the followers become accustomed to peace.

They forgot that the man was a bad man who slaughtered his brothers and brought down his mighty ancestor.

"Your head will soon be off the hill."

When the duke spoke lethargicly, the followers, with pale skin, instantly dropped their heads to the floor.

And this is the situation now.

The duke and the brothers had been doing all sorts of things to them for several days. They put all sorts of fouls on their heads.

[Enlightenment]

That's just three francs.

[Receiving bribes in shopping malls.]

The owner of the flower shop gave them each a piece of tulip.

It was a very small crime, but it was enough to make his followers shudder.

It was so trivial that they forgot about it, but it meant that the Duke knew everything that no one else knew.

In other words, all the followers were in front of the duke's eyes.

He deliberately made a list of misdemeanors. I wonder if they have no choice but to die like this. But, uh,…

"But son, they treat you badly."

When Isaac said so, Leblaine replied firmly.

“You can't kill people because of that.” (You can't kill people because of that)

Next to him, Henry also persuaded me.

“Poor characters must be removed. That's how it works, Leblaine.”

"Pewson's nothing." (Someone is not something)

The Duke extended his hand, and called out "Blaine."

"No."

"Why?"

Leblaine frowned, as she looked around the three restless people.

“I won't mess with Dyuke, Henly, and Isyac again.”(I'm not going to play with Duke, Henry, and Isaac anymore)

When they saw the three hard-headed men looking as if they had been struck by lightning all of a sudden, they were dumbfounded.

“Ahh, Small miss ...”

It is not wrong to say that he has given hope to all of them.

That little lady is so nice!

***

The men were released unharmed.

In front of the castle, the cries of their families for fear that their children, husbands, and parents would die sounded.

“Honey, wife! I'm so scared!”

“Dad, are you okay? Is your body sick? What a relief, your neck is still intact!”

But Boone was not satisfied.

[Why did you let them live when they deserved to die?]

'The crime was not severe enough for them to pay with their deaths.'

They don't abuse children like Teramore or force women like Urso.

And most importantly, I understood why they were trying to kick me out.

Some people were trying to get Cattlea to enter the Duke's house, as there must have been an empty position for Dubbled.

I am a child of destiny, founded by the church, and it is very dangerous for me to take full control of Dubbled.

Above all, Dubbled's status would degenerate if he was swayed by an ordinary person, with a false title.

'And if we kill them all, the chairman will intervene.'

Strongest leader, Noanoke

[Who is he?]

'Um to make it simple ..he's a very scary person?'

The reason the ancestors who were famous for their tyranny gave people to the Senate was not just because they were forced to.

The bigger reason is that the senate chairman is Jean Marc Noanoke.

Noanoke had strong ties to the senate nobles, and even the church prioritized his words over Dubbled direct descendants.

[Why does he have so much power?]

'When it came to the chairman, he wasn't just a follower. He's number two in the Dubbled hierarchy.'

Moreover, in the near future, he would have a stronger connection.

'But why is it so quiet today?'

I should have stepped forward next time.

As soon as I thought about it, my brothers, who had been wary of me, came to me.

"Son, are you still angry ...?"

"Leblaine do you want to go for a walk?"

Sitting on the sofa, I saw them from the corner of my eye

They become sullen.

"Other times, you wouldn't play a guy like that?"

Both look bright.

“We won't!”

"Yes." Yeah."

I took a breath and got off the couch.

“Come streets.”

"How about we go to the park?"

"What about the greenhouse?"

I left the room with my brothers, who looked like they were wagging their invisible tails.

After a small debate, the three decided to take a walk in the park.

It was because Isaac insisted that there was a flower he wanted to show me.

Out into the park, I was surprised.

"Wow!"

A few days ago, the flowerbed that was once empty, was filled with flowers.

Wildflowers, primrose, and violets, rarely seen flowers in the flowerbeds of noble houses. Most of them prefer expensive, hand-sized flowers, such as Tulips.

But I prefer wildflowers. Especially Violet, it's my favorite flower.

“Bwaine loves this flower!” (Blaine loves this flower!)

Isaac was very happy.

"I told the gardener to plant it!"

"As far as you."

Henry smiled excitedly as he smelled the scent.

"Finally an idiot has done something commendable."

"I'm not an idiot."

“Yes, for today I admit you are not an idiot. But I don't know about tomorrow.”

My brothers started fighting again, so I pulled their sleeves.

As they crouched down beside me, I gave them a flower ring.

As I thought, both were surprised.

"Son, how do you know how to do this?"

"I wear it on nuwsery." (I learned it in the nursery)

Isaac seemed curious as to why the nursery taught him to make such a flower ring.

While peeling the small dried grass on the stem of the flower ring, I said.

"The nobles made their newborns wear rings."

"Yes. They are made to wear Ruby rings.”

The ring means that they must grow healthily until the day the family stamp can be worn by them.

“People used to make flower rings and put them on their fingers. The children in the nursery do not have a mother, so the children there make it together and wear it.”

"Why do commoners use flower rings?"

“Because it means they love you.”

That is, even if you cannot give a child an expensive ruby ring like a noble, your love for a child is no different from that of a noble.

“So, teacwes (guru) taught us how to make flower rings-....yeah?”

They didn't even listen to me and stared at the flower rings I made for them.

“If flower ring means love,..”

“Because Leblaine gave us this..”.

"We…."

Then, their faces turned red and they clasped flower rings in their hands.
