The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Return of Johann (2)

'Oh no.'

Dubbled is not a family that loves each other just because they are family.

The ancestors saw their children as tools of power, and even the duke's father slaughtered up to ten brothers and left only two.

What I said might not make sense to Javelin.

'Oh no. I was just trying to get along, but I made her even more angry.'

I made excuses in despair.

“Well, I won't make you angry again. I'm really gonna keep quiet. Be quiet, not to be seen by you. I'll walk carefully so I don't bother you. So can you forgive me..?”

When I looked up with a face of despair, Javelin's eyes distorted.

“You..”.

“…?”

"….go inside."

Javelin walked past me.

After he actually left, I sighed.

Leah muttered with a guilty look,

“Small phone, because I..”.

"No, it's not because of Lea."

I opened my hand with a desperate look. As usual, Leah hugged me.

Bum, boom, boom, boom!

The administrators rushed through the hall.

"Your Majesty, the Empress fainted!"

When I heard a loud shout, I held Lea's shoulder tightly in my arm.

"It's started."

***

Adolf rushed to the palace to check on the situation. The royal physician was staring at her, and the empress showed no signs of waking up.

"What's that?"

When asked why, the doctor was confused.

“We don't know. He was healthier than usual a week ago. The pain he complained about was gone. He has been walking a lot, and he has good skin, so why is this happening all of a sudden.”.

"It could be poison."

"There's no such thing in the test."

The royal physician asked the Empress Dowager's servant.

"Did he eat the wrong food?"

“That can't be true! His Majesty has a poison tester, if there is a problem, that tester will be destroyed as well. ”

The queen also has no specific allergies.

"Have you noticed anything unusual lately?"

"Besides taking ageless medicine ..."

“Drug of youth. You mean the drugs they sell on the market?!”

The physician groaned and saw the unconscious empress. Why was he so immature as he grew older?

Drugs that do not receive confirmation from the physician cannot be taken to the palace.

It was strictly forbidden as it could be used as a poison.

"But it doesn't happen to anyone else."

The servant glanced at Adolf.

“Not a drug on the market, but the pastor has prepared it with the same efficacy.”

Hearing his words, people looked at Adolf.

He's also very confused.

'What's going on?'

He must have stolen the manufacturing method from the peak of hope and made it the same. But why only the queen?

In that case, it was all her fault that the empress fainted but she could not tell that the priest himself had stolen the recipe.

If they find out that the pastor who runs the central church committed theft, he will be expelled immediately.

'I have to blame those peaks of hope.'

Adolf immediately contacted a peak worker of hope.

***

Martin, a worker who had been working at the peak of expectations for three years, clicked his tongue.

He was so greedy for money that he accepted the priest's offer. But he didn't know it would bother him so much.

"Are there really no people who get sick after taking medication?"

“Yes, people never visit us for that reason.”

"Then make trouble."

The priest handed me the medicine bottle. He said to mix this powder into the stock there.

It is not difficult to mix the powder in medicine.

Martin, a member of the guard, knew the patrol routes and shift times of the guards better than anyone, and even knew when the workers were leaving.

He took advantage of the absence of people and broke into the warehouse.

While fumbling through the walls in the darkness, he found a medicinal supply for the young man.

In the past five years, the peak of expectations has grown so big.

There was too much luggage in the warehouse, and inside it was dark.

As soon as he wiped off the sweat with the back of his hand, he tore the sack.

"What are you looking for?"

A light entered the dimly lit warehouse.

A girl smiled as she sat on the sack.

"Luminous medicine?"

“Ap, what, what! whoareyou?!

He was terrified, struggling and waving his hands.

When he turned his head, it was his vice president and aide Curtis.

"What are you doing here?"

Martin's face turned pale hearing their question. “I, the..” shouts.

"I, I was told to look for something by the owner."

"How do you know the owner?"

As soon as the vice leader tried to understand the situation, he had to flee.

The girl walked gently and stretched out her upper body with her hands on her back.

“What kind of reason is that?”

"….What's?"

"When would I give such an order?"

Martin laughed at the boy's words.

“How could a little girl be its owner.. gasp!”.

Seria caught his neck. Seria, who was looking at him would twist her neck like an insect.

"The shh-owner won't let you talk."

“…..!”

No way!

The peak of hope had grown in just five years.

He monopolizes Spinel and controls the business.

Does it make sense if the owner is a girl under the age of 10?

However, even the superior from above was very courteous to the child.

"Let it."

The boy came to him slowly.

“I think I treat the workers pretty well.”

Martin's throat felt dry by the girl's words.

The little boy's hand touched Martin's shoulder.

"Huh? What do you think."

"If…"

The boy shrugged his shoulders at Martin, who was frightened and could not answer properly.

“Well, that's enough.”

"…sorry?"

“I don't want to forgive you.”

For a moment, he felt the back of the boy's hand glow, and he felt a burning sensation all over his body.

The boy's hands glowed red and his body seemed to burn as if he had swallowed a ball of fire.

“Agghhh—!”

Martin, who was shaking like he was electrocuted, said, "Sa, save me!" He screamed and fainted.

The child with an expressionless face, left.

Curtis gulped when he saw Seria staring at the boy's back with a narrowed forehead.

That kid must be so strong as to make a guy like this.

Who would have thought that a strong owner, was a child who looked less than 10 years old.

“He grew amazingly!”said Seria.

LeBlaine, whom he met after a few years, had become the true youngster of Dubbled.

***

Standing in front of a full-size mirror, she wore three hats, two mufflers, gloves, and various accessories.

“Ah, I think this will look good for you too.”

Seria, who put so many things on me, brought me many more things in her arms.

"Enough. I don't need it.”

"You look good in everything."

I put down the items Seria gave me and folded them as I put them in the box.

These items are all valuable supplies to make money.

"Have you taken care of Martin?"

"Yes." Yeah."

“Alright, then I'll be back.”

“Let's stay a little longer. This is the first time you have been at the top of your expectations. Much I want to show you, ”said Seria, her eyes glazed over.

"Are you okay with showing yourself to Curtis?"

I nodded at his words.

“He trusted Seria. Then I believe in him too.”

“You said something fun. Now, here's what you asked for.”

I got the paper envelope Seria gave me. I checked inside and nodded.
