The Baby Who Raised the Devil
Return of Johann (6)
But there's no possibility. In January Risette died from childbirth. I was born on February 29th.
When I saw Javelin's facial expression, or when I saw my father looking at his daughter's shoes, even though I knew it was ridiculous, it made me feel a bit bad.
“If I was their daughter, I would be very sad when I saw Javelin.”
“……”
“It is heartbreaking to see her beloved aunt sad because of her.”
Javelin laughed at my words.
"Be careful again."
I smiled at him and went back to my room.
That day, my father and brothers left the mansion after being chased out by everyone.

"Hello, little lady."
"Did you dream well?"
I headed to the dressing room with the servants, after being greeted by the servants
I woke up too early. Dahlia, Linda and Yuni were filming me as I rubbed my eyes, they said,
"the blanket!"
Their hobby, which now exceeds adoring me, is to share my videos with magic tools.
It's awkward and embarrassing because I just got here a few weeks ago, but I'm getting used to it.
But…
'Huh?'
I was surprised to see this many servants.
“There are more videos than usual today.”
As I grabbed onto Lea's sleeves, the three maids replied with wide smiles.
“Because today is a special day.”
“Ya, it's a special day.”
“The first tea party little miss!”
Today was the first time I met a kid my age.
Dad gave me a tea party as promised.
So far, I have only met Dubbled people and high-ranking subordinates in the castle.
Lea, who sat me in her chair, asked while combing my hair.
"Are you not excited?"
“….I'm a little excited.”
To be honest, I was a little excited because this was the first time I had a tea party.
As soon as I blushed, the maids around me exclaimed,
"Fuck!"
"She's so beautiful today!"
I shook my head.
I was wearing a dress from Melvin with the ribbon and shoes Seria gave me.
"You're so pretty today."
"I know!"
Wearing a red dress with my family pattern, I look beautiful even to myself.
The servants grinned.
When I finished preparing and checking the place.
It's time for the tea party to start.
When stepping into the park, it was unusually crowded.
There were many cute little women wearing big hats and beautiful little men in big robes.
“I heard about the sad news in your house yesterday. I'm sorry."
“Yes, I was sleeping and crushed a beetle. It was a very brave beetle.”
"Oh my God…"
Children pretend to be adults, imitating their social interactions.
'Mut!'
This was the first time I had seen a friend of my age, so my heart was pounding.
Entering excitedly, the servants guarding the garden instantly bowed.
Then the children got up one by one and greeted me.
"I say hello to young Miss Dubbled."
"I say hello to young Miss Dubbled."
I also greeted them by lowering my head by about ten degrees.
Nos, who taught me manners, raised his thumb in the corner of the place.
“Nice to meet you, I'm Leblaine Risette Dubbled.”
After introducing myself, I gestured for them to sit down.
'How about this?'
When I saw Nos, he smiled and gave a thumbs up again.
I laughed in my heart.
The chair I was sitting in was in the middle.
It was a place to receive guests from high-ranking families.
I glanced at them, as the children quickly started a conversation.
"Thank you for the invitation. Viscount Myshank is my father.”
“Viscount Lesul is my grandfather.”
"I'm the youngest son of Baron Kruola."
The kids introduced themselves to me.
"What's your name?"
“Ya?” (Yes?)
'Jeez .. funny.'
I was happy to see these little and cute kids after seeing those scary-looking people in the castle at all times.
The son of Myshank, the eldest child at the table said,
“Kilion Myshank. I'm 12 years old."
'Oh, the same age as Isaac.'
Kilyon, who introduced herself, flushed red as I smiled brightly at her.
“A, ah.. Myshank's eldest son.
I guess I'm also a little embarrassed that a lot of eyes are on me.
I found him very funny, the opposite of Isaac, who defeated the wolf from the mountain yesterday.
The smiling children quickly said,
“I'm Sophia Lesul!”
"My name is Max Kruola!"
The children at the other table quickly interrupted and introduced themselves.
That's not a polite act.
But I don't care about this, after all they are children.
“Ah, you are the grandson of Viscount Lesul. I hear you play the piano really well?”
I look after every child.
The faces of the children at the party were happy.
But then, then,
"Huh? What!"
From the entrance, a sudden scream was heard.
He's a very tall and skinny kid, but I can only see a little bit of his head.
“Ah....... That's it again...”.
The children said as if they knew him.
"Who?"
When asked, Kilyon replied,
“She always comes to parties uninvited..she's a child of a prestigious family.”.
“Before, when you had not arrived, he said that the Dubbled children were just rude fools. That's too much…"
I looked around as I lifted myself up among the children.
I'm heading to that place. The kids rushed after me.
The girl with him, almost crying.
The girl was as sweet as a doll with black hair and beautiful green eyes.
“I, no, I was surprised when you suddenly touched my face ...”
Touch face?
The girl was seen to be at least 14 years old, and the boy was seen to be about 15 years old.
He's old enough to know it's rude to touch a woman's face.
I became the shield between the two and hid the girl behind me.
"What are you!"
That boy is Billy Penak.
He was a pervert in my second life.
He was a close friend of Duke Vallua's eldest son.
Penak is a prestigious family, and Vallua's eldest son, a high-ranking official, often mingles with him.
Every time he came to Vallua's house, the man would look at the girls there with a perverted look.
At the age of 17, he raped the girl, but was released under the pretext of being drunk and his own father's relationship.
“......Are you little miss?”
When he saw the seal on my finger, he coughed in vain.
“I'm Billy Penak. Sorry I made a fuss.”
"Yes, you made a fuss at my first party."
"That .. yes .. forgive me."
"I think you're apologizing to the wrong person."
"I'm sorry?"
I held the hand of the crying girl and looked towards the children while saying,
"You must apologize to my guest who became unhappy."
“I just need to apologize to you, why should I....!”.
"They are the children of Dubbled's followers."
What are you doing to the kids?
The kids look at me with sparkling eyes.
Billy frowned and said,
“I won't apologize! Why would I do that! After all you are not the real Dubbled princess.”
"What?"
"really so. You were adopted.”
I hardened hearing his words.
The old man and the girl holding my hand also gasped.
"This guy…"
When I said that in a low voice, Billy was overjoyed because he thought he had won.
I gently took off the glove I was wearing and threw it in front of him.
That means I'm gonna duel with him.
“You must have read a lot of novels. Only in fiction can a girl defeat a man.”
"really?"
"Don't embarrass yourself just because of your arrogance."
Billy grinned as if he was going to win.
"I'll keep my dignity, so let's go."
"God. I can't speak."
“Quick before I make an official protest against Penak.”
“…..!”
Then Billy's face turned pale.
He didn't even accept an official invitation to come here, but if he got an official protest after making a fuss, it was hard to deal with it.
“....you won't do it if I win, right?”
"Yes." Yeah."
I said while shrugging my shoulders.
I stood next to the door and said, "Let's go," Billy clicked his tongue and stepped out first.
It was ridiculous for a man to compete with women, but since he heard about my plans to give an official protest, he agreed.
I walked away from the tea party area and faced Billy.
He raised his servant sword and raised the corner of his mouth
"Let's start."
"Continue."
Billy laughed and ran fast as we got closer.
But he can't get near me.
When we were less than 3 meters away, he was blocked by the barrier.
And in an instant a fireball surrounded him.
“Wa, wa, wait...wait!”.
When he shouted, the fireball turned into a lion and swallowed it.
“Agh—!”
Billy sat down and closed his eyes with both hands.
His pants got wet.
I smiled and said,
"Are you surprised?"
