The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Fun Tricking me? (2)

I hesitated a little to hear Adrian's question and said in a small voice.

"My name is Leblaine."

“......Leblaine.”

He called my name a few times and smiled.

“You're beautiful.”

“You are really stupid.

I keep sighing.

'He's very nice. How could he be so good?'

I'm really worried about him. There must be a tougher challenge for him in the future.

I don't know why Adrian's future changed.

Nothing happened to her, who was supposed to be expelled from the palace for treason by her maternal grandfather, yet she lives with Camilla now.

'Maybe that's what the emperor asked Camilla to do for Adrian'

Because the palace has no one to protect Adrian.

Of course, the Emperor was unable to do so due to his position.

If he shows any interest in Adrian, Duke Marche will be wary.

'He had a difficult life, but he had to fight rather than accept it like a fool!'

He would be devastated if it continued like this.

"Adrians."

"Yes?"

“Sit here.”

I sat down on the grass and patted the spot next to me. Adrian sat down next to me gently.

“When someone tries to trick you, you have to stand up like this and say, 'Are you tired of living?"

"……Huh?"

"Follow me. Are you tired of living?"

"What..... You are tired of living?"

"OKAY. And smile like a criminal."

When I showed him an example of how my father smiled, Adrian laughed.

"No-no. It's just ugly.”

As I spoke to him, Adrian raised the corner of his mouth again.

'Well, that's not enough, but okay.'

"Then you said, 'Are you not afraid of your future?"

"Are you not afraid of your future?"

"OKAY. And you can't smile anymore. Say 'If you're unlucky, it won't end with your limb being cut.'”

“If you are unlucky, it will not end with your limb being cut.”

"Good! Now try saying it together.”

“Are you tired of living? Are you not afraid of your future? If you are unlucky, it will not end with your limbs being cut off. ”

“ It...”

That time,

"Lady?"

I could hear my godmother's voice from a distance.

I got up and said to Adrian.

“Other times I will teach you how to threaten more frighteningly. Practice, okay?”

“.....will you come again next time?”

"Yes. I'll come here often.”

Adrian smiled beautifully.

I ran to my godmother after waving at her.

He was waiting for me near the training room.

"You must have looked around."

“Yes, it's fun!”

"OKAY. How about we go in now?”

"Yes, godmother."

I grabbed his hand and went to the training room.

***

I put the teacup on the coasters, and the godmother smiled.

"You've got good manners."

“This is thanks to your teaching.”

As I smiled and said that, he nodded in satisfaction.

'He praised me for the way I handled tea!'

He had no idea how hard I was trained by Duchess Vallua in my second life.

I carefully placed my teacup, also carefully moving my hand while drinking tea.

Back then, I was criticized for even the smallest mistake and continued to practice tea courtesy throughout the night.

'The way we drink tea is very important.'

Smiling inwardly, I took another cup of tea. Then the godmother lightly pressed my hand.

“The test is done, so drink the tea freely.”

"But……"

“That's etiquette, and I teach you that, but sometimes we also need to relax. How can we enjoy tea while paying attention to ethics?”

The godmother who said that also gave me a scone. I took it and laughed.

Actually, the aroma of the tea is very good, and I want to drink it freely.

The godmother laughed as I drank the tea freely.

Then I heard a knock on the door.

When the godmother let the man in, the butler came in.

“There's guests.”

The godmother frowned.

“Anyone who comes unannounced is not a guest. Send them back.”

The butler continued his words with a puzzled look.

"That's Duchess Vallua."

“......What was the previous incident?”

The Duchess smuggled a copy of the Bible from the Imperial Palace to place her son, Niel, into the Imperial Academy.

He couldn't let go easily because I humiliated Niel and publicly announced their sin.

The butler raised his head.

"Yes, he said he'd wait until you met him."

The godmother sighed.

I picked up the tea cup and raised my eyebrows slightly.

"He must be in a hurry."

He was the one who was most afraid of the rumors in the society.

"I'll have the butler bring you some books to read, so wait outside the reception hall."

I lowered my head and followed him out of the training room.

She went into the living room as I sat on the sofa in front of the room while trying to eavesdrop.

“You must help us.”

“What can an old woman like me do?”

Her calm voice caused Duchess Vallua to panic.

"Don't the Emperor have to back down if that's your order?"

"What are you saying. How could an old woman influence the Emperor?”

“I, that's not what I mean.you're also famous in society. Not only me and my son are having a lot of trouble, but Empress Yvonne is also in big trouble.”

“……”

“If you choose to take care of this, how precious is the Empress?”

“……”

“You're the only one I can count on. That's why I asked you this..”.

In other words, she told the godmother to take this opportunity to bring Empress Yvonne to her side.

"I need some time to think, so you should go back first."

"I'm sure you'll give me a positive answer."

'But will it work out as he thinks?'

The conversation ended before the butler came. That means the godmother does not serve him.

'In the end, Duke Vallua had to come forward.'

If the Duke advanced, it would definitely be resolved. He is a man who has a lot of power. But the Duchess' reputation will be ruined.

While I was thinking about it, the butler came up with a book and a chessboard.

"That's the chess Madam used to play."

An old chessboard with a time trail looks very beautiful. The chess pieces are also decorated with black pearls and rubies, which look very luxurious.

“Wah, beautiful once!”

The butler smiled.

At that moment, the door opened as Duchess Vallua left the room.

When he walked out the door, he looked at me and frowned.

“Abviously it's been crying since morning.”

It was an idiom that meant meeting an unlucky person.

I smiled and greeted him.

"Hello, Duchess Vallua."

"Do you know me?"

"I saw you at the party with your son!"

Hey, these days must feel like hell to you.

The Duchess' eyes widened as she realized what I meant. He was angry but he could only grit his teeth because he didn't know that I was saying that on purpose.

He tried to smile.

"I understand. I know you too.”

The Duchess looked at me from top to bottom with an arrogant look. And he immediately turned his body.

“Don't worry too much about it!”I shouted innocently.

"……What?"

“My father told me that I would enroll in the Imperial Academy because of your son's lies, but don't worry, he won't die horribly.”

“Ap, what?!”

“He will not die. Just so you know."

The Duchess bit her lips with a red face.

"You……!"

Just as she was about to shout, the godmother walked out of the room.

"What the hell is going on?"

I quickly slipped to the side of the godmother. The Duchess could only clench her fists.

"……none. I just met Lady and said hello.”

Do you think I'm still the Leblaine that gets hurt easily by your words?

I waved my hand innocently at him.

"Good bye!"

**

The Vallua house.

The Duchess looked at her husband, who was angry.

Thumping!

Duke hit the table with his hand.

“Honey, dear. Don'worry. When he came in...!”

"Do you think that old lady will help us ?!"

“I, then me and Niel..”.

Covering her mouth with trembling hands, the Duchess quickly approached her husband.

“Then what should I do? Is there a way? Honey!"

The Duke frowned.

'Damn, goddamnit!'

The Duke issued a statement last month to stop the execution of Reverend Adolf. However, in the end, Adolf's execution was unstoppable and he could do nothing in front of the Emperor.

His family was in a big accident at the moment, so he could not handle it easily.

He called the administrator. Soon, he's in, he's in,

“Go and prepare 'it'. I will give it to the Emperor. ” said the Duke,

The Duchess widened her eyes at the words of her husband.

"You mean what you're developing with the church?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Will the Emperor forget this case when he accepts it?"

"He should have forgotten it."

It is a product developed by their ancestors.

Even the emperor would open his eyes wide if he accepted it.

Duke Vallua took out a small card from the drawer, touched it, and smiled.

It was a great object that could cover up family mistakes, and could also strengthen their relationship with the Emperor.

Teleportation magic devices, which could cover a distance of over three kilometers had now circulated on the market.
