The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Who gave you the information (3)

When I left the prison, my chairman and brothers started torturing the Baron, and there was a terrible scream underground.

While I was eating with my father, Nos told him about the Baron.

"He wanted to control Dubbled through the girl, but I don't think he knew about the gold liquor."

"He must be stupid."

"Because you care so much about little miss, so they dare to do this."

This is the second time it has happened.

Previously, the dead Walstons tried so hard to get Cattlea adopted by Dubbled, they also fooled themselves for that reason.

Clearly, there was someone who had deliberately approached the Baron to get information. That must be the man Mireille saw.

'What was the reason they dared to do this even by using the golden liquor?'

I put meat in my mouth and thought,

"Well, that's enough."

Even if I don't try to catch the man, if they really want something in Dubbled, they will naturally appear in front of us someday.

"And if they get caught, they'll die."

At that moment, the butler came to deliver a letter.

"Letter to little lady."

"From who?"

"The Dubos Family."

I got up and received a letter.

[Little lady, this is a love letter. I'm so glad to hear that you're sober. I am very sad to hear what little lady has experienced.]

I tried to decode what he wanted to say and immediately understood it.

[...I'm delivering good news. I successfully completed the remote travel device.]

'Yes!'

I sang a happy song in my heart.

***

After I finished eating, I went upstairs.

'Let's use one for confirmation. It's a pity, but I have to check it myself.'

Thinking so, I walked down the dark alley and headed to my room.

This was the waiter's meal time, so the hall was quiet.

'Aim for gaps and moves ... yes?'

There were two familiar people on the terrace.

It was Javelin and Lea.

They both talk, though,

"In the end, we haven't found a fourth child yet."

Lea answered the words Javelin unhindered.

"Javelin, I'll let go now."

His usually gentle voice was as his feet as a knight.

"Is it because of the child of destiny?"

When Javelin was staring at Lea, he replied while staring blankly at the sky.

“I have failed. I always forget the most important thing.”

“……”

“On the day the child is gone, if I do not try to recover the body of my dead sister, I can protect her.”

On the day of the attack, Lea, her older sister and Risette escape from the castle.

“In the end, I can't even see my sister.”

“……”

“This time again. If I were more careful, I might notice that Mireille is a fake. ”

“……”

“I shouldn't have left that little miss alone.”

Lea lowered her head weakly.

“Little girl did not try to call a waiter other than me and three maids. She has a lot of affection, but she is afraid of being in a relationship because of her injuries.”

“……”

“I tried to take the rest of the servants because I felt guilty for the girl I believed to be the fourth child. That little lady must have been hurt. ”

Lea almost cried as Javelin laughed miserably.

“I'll retire. I am not qualified to serve little lady. ”

Whahuh?

I opened the door.

The two people who were chatting did not even realize that I was here. They were so surprised.

I said to Leah,

"I'm not weak!"

"……sorry?"

"I'm not hurt by your actions!"

"But for weeks in such a big place alone ..."

“All other children also experienced this. There are so many children who eat alone when their parents go to work!”I shouted at Lea.

“Without Lea, much scarier. Sleeping alone and eating alone is nothing compared to that.”

“Small number..”

Lea's eyes were wet while I frowned and glared at her.

"Cancel your retirement!"

"Yes……"

Soon she started crying, so I sighed.

Although Lea was usually a reliable adult, now I feel like persuading a little child.

Lea immediately began to shed tears and snot, so I took a handkerchief and wiped it.

"Sorry…"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Now go and work."

"Yes." Yeah."

He calmly answered while looking at me.

"You have no idea how honorable I am to serve you."

I lifted my chin, and said, "I know."

Lea smiled and kissed my cheek.

After he left, I went to the Javelin side, to the seat next to him.

"Thank you for persuading Leah."

“After all I will never let go. Lea is mine.”

I took a seat next to him. The liquor bottle and empty glass on the table smelled strong.

"It's an expensive drink."

This was one of the drinks Duke Vallua cared about. He took out a drink only when he met an important guest.

"I'm too young to drink alcohol."

Then he took out a new cup from a tray near the liquor bottle and added the ice he had prepared for the drink.

“It's already spring.”

"Yes. Violet also blooms under the mountain.”

"Do you like violets?"

"I actually prefer something else than violet."

"What?"

"Tree of Elsa."

This is a money tree.

Others know only the leaves can be utilized, but if the leaves are dried and sold, it can be used to make money, also the leaves can be a material for long-distance travel tools, if planted near a volcano, the land can be used as a spinel mine.

The leaves are very expensive because they can make very tasty ointments and teas.

The price of an elsa tree is comparable to a large house.

“I have many elsa trees around me, but some of them are not well cared for.”

A spinel mine can only be created if it meets the requirements.

That was why the original owner, Viscount Roman, sold the land with Elsa trees at a low price.

But having money doesn't mean anyone can buy it. The owner is reluctant to sell the tree because it is a tree that needs to be handled carefully.

"I understand."

“What plants do you like best, Javelin?”

“I don't like plants.”

"Why?"

“I get it every day so it's not special.”

Recalling the rumors that the little kids in the capital were piling flowers for the Javelin birthday, I nodded.

"Hm."

"He must be tired even though he's popular."

I speak from heart to heart with Javelin in the night wind.

At nightfall, he said,

"Now you must go in and sleep."

"Yes." Yeah."

“Goodnight, Leblaine.”

I was so surprised.

'Ja, Ja, Javelin called my name!'

He always called me the son of destiny.

He laughed as I was surprised, covering my mouth with both hands.

"I must remember the name of my drinking buddy."

"Yes……!"

"Good night."

I grinned.

***

I felt really good the next day.

I got a long-distance travel magic device yesterday, Javelin also called my name and I finally decided which soul I wanted to take.

I hummed as I went to the dining room for breakfast.

Javelin, who usually does not attend family meals, is sitting at the table.

"Hello."

When I greeted him, he also replied,

"Hello, Leblaine."

My brothers looked at him and me.

"What, when were you two so close?"

“Yes how can you? I'll be jealous.”

"Me and him are drinking buddy!"I answered while sitting in a chair.

Clangs!

Then I could hear the plate fall.

"I, t, little lady has become a brat ..."

"Ba, bad little lady ..."

As the servants muttered and trembled, Isaac shouted.

“Auntie, are you crazy ?! You can't give a drink to a baby!”

Isaac, who normally had no common sense, somehow spoke with common sense today. I was a little amazed at him.

"A nine-year-old is not a baby."

Javelin said while wiping his mouth with a napkin. Henry frowned as Johann said,

“Drink is not good for children.”

“That's not something you can tell me as a person caught drinking in dorm.”

I glared at Henry and Isaac. The two men gasped as Johann pouted.

Javelin says,

"I bought you a present, so look, Leblaine."

"Gift?"

"That's out the window."

“Can I see it now?”

"Yes." Yeah."

I opened the window that was connected to the dining room. And what I saw was a pile of elsa trees.

Dozens of giant elsa trees piled from the garden to the gate.

The calculator in my head went off and a lot of zeros came to my mind.

"You said you liked it the most."

I stared at Javelin. I immediately ran and hugged her.

"Auntie!"

I cried while smiling.

“It's worth the money.”

Having a rich aunt is the best!
