The Baby Raising A Devil's
Chapter 14

...***...

Meanwhile, Dubblede's knights dragged the priest's neck and threw him into the horse-drawn carriage. After entering the castle, Dubbede workers could not hide their excitement.

"Oho, little lady. Good job."

The butler grabbed me and I quickly hugged Duke's neck.

"No. Little miss...."

The eyes of the old butler were disappointed. I was shocked by the rude touch from the priest, and I remembered the painful memories of his previous life.

Now, even familiar adults felt terrifying. My refusal startled the butler and he staggered, Lea and the other servants crowding around me. The servants began to calm me down gently.

"Little lady, let's go home and change your clothes."

"No."

"Is it comfortable?"

"No."

"Okay, little lady. This way."

"No!"

Leave me alone! My heart is still pounding because of the frightening situation earlier. The servants proceeded to take me away from the Duke, but I struggled and stuck to his neck. Lea looked at me with a worried look and looked at Duke Dubbede.

"Master. The baby is still very surprised.... He wanted to see you all along. He was really submissive as always.... Today, no, half a day, no, even a few hours before...."

Lea, make a long speech. Duke then looked at me.

"OKAY. I'll bring him in."

After she said that, Lea's face brightened and she raised the corner of her mouth.

"It's so annoying."

"Yes?"

"He likes me a lot." Said the Duke while pointing towards me.

"Didn't that?"

Lea replied with a crisp look.

"Ah, yes...."

I looked at the Duke with a stupid face. While I was thinking about it, all the workers were gone. I was alone with the Duke.

Sighing, I held her hand like a flying squirrel. My chubby cheeks shriveled, but I was relieved.

'Thank you for today.'

If it wasn't for Duke Dubbede, I would have been adopted to Vallua and repeated my misfortune. At that moment, I remembered what I had just heard.

'Remove your hands from my daughter.'

My daughter.

He said I was his daughter.

Then....

I glanced at.

"Can I leave you here?" (Can I stay here?)

But the Duke did not give an answer. Did he say all that just because of his dislike of the church? I became nervous and started to mutter.

"I can wear a little kwaus kakih." (I can wear a little sock)

"......."

"I'll eat less." (I'll eat less.)

"......"

"I'll be a child. And, and...." (I'll be fine. And, and ..)

I blinked my eyes as she fixed her wet hair.

"I'll adopt you."

It's freaky. He was always expressionless with a dry voice, but why did he suddenly seem so gentle?

The sound of burning firewood in the fireplace was soft in my ear. A big hand patting my back moved in a gentle motion. The frost on the window gradually melted into hot steam inside the room.

"......"

I was so sleepy that I didn't hear the news from the butler to the Duke. He said that the three brothers would be here soon.

...***...

A few days later.

I lay on my stomach on the carpet and shook my legs

"Tuwiscan. Sinwi, here!" (Write. Here, here!)

"Ya~ I'll write it for you."

Lea laughed and grabbed the crayon.

I picked up the book and looked at my name with a happy look.

Leblaine Dubblede's.

Dubbedes.

'success!'

I sang the song happily in my heart.

When the pastor arrived, I thought I was wrong, but they put my name on the Dubbede family list.

'Duke is good....'

I can't believe I was adopted safely even though I bit the priest's arm. It was the Empress who calmed down the priests, they said that they could not leave me to such a cruel Duke.

'You must have taken a bribe.'

Ah, the sweet taste of money. I'm afraid I'll be taken to the other two dukes.

'I'll only grow here for 5 years.'

Mina, the original child of fate will appear after that. By the time I'm about ten years old, I'll be able to control my 'adult thinking' and leave.

'Let's stay calm so we don't attract attention. And save money for this trip.'

When I tried to put the sketch on the floor, a glimpse of light appeared. The butler's uniform button will come off.

"That's akyan falling." (It will fall.)

"Oh yes. I need to put it back on."

"Please yell at me." (please give it to me)

I gathered my hands politely.

'Make money by collecting and selling buttons.'

"The button that fell? Okay...."

Lea shook her head with a grim expression as the other servant replied.

"No. What if he puts it in his mouth?"

The servant laughed uneasily at Lea's words.

"Ah... How about this, little lady. Can't give you the buttons."

If you collect thirty high-end buttons on Dubbede's uniform. That's enough to buy two potatoes.

Immediately, I entered the deadly attack mode. I reached out with sparkling eyes.

"Pwesse...." (Please.).

The grim-faced servants tore their buttons and pulled them out.

One two three four five. I've collected five.

Lea tried to take the button from me I quickly closed my hand.

"I'm not going to give it to you." (I won't give it.)

That's what I said, but Lea still looked anxious. I'll put it in the elephant bag when the waiter doesn't see. Lea smiled helplessly.

Just then, several pairs of shoes moved quickly through the slightly open door gap.

"That's Mr. Teramore and his men. We're gonna be busy."

"On the one hand, they're more demanding than Duke."

As the servants grumbled, Lea's gaze sank.

"Baby body. There's nothing good about her appearance."

...***...

After that the servants went to do their work.

"I'll bring you lunch. Can you be a good girl while you wait?"

"Yes." Yeah."

When Lea left, I had time to be alone.

"One, two, three, five buttons."

I counted the buttons I gathered today, and I turned my head when I felt someone staring at me.

'Oh my God!'

Outside the window was an old man with white hair and a white beard looking at me with strange eyes.

'I thought you were a ghost.'

I stared at the window, gently pressing on my throbbing chest.

'Huh?'

But this is weird. I've seen him before.

'Have I seen it before I reincarnated?'

The corners of the old man's mouth, who was looking at me, moved slowly. When his canine teeth were seen, I unconsciously clenched my fists.

Where do I see him?

A voice came from outside the window while I tried to remember the old man.

"Master of the Teramore."

Mr. Teramore was the one that Lea and the servants talked about earlier.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Your Majesty told me it's hard to take the time because the work is piling up."

"Every one of these old men visits, how can he be overworked?"

"You always come unannounced, so it's hard to take the time."

Nos, the one who was talking to Mr. Teramore. Nos expression is stiffer than usual.

"I can't stop him then. Then can I see the baby?"

When Nos saw myself at the window, he covered the window with his body and said,

"She's very shy, so let's sit in a separate chair later."

He smiled and said, "That's bad." Then he muttered and left.

Nos shook his head and sighed deeply. When I showed my face, Nos' eyes widened.

"Hi!"

"Little lady...."

She smiles.

Good good good. A child who is good at greeting is very popular among adults.

'Nos is a high-ranking man here, so should I be a little more friendly to him?'

I screamed with my arms outstretched.

"The akyu hug." (Hug me)

"Huh, should I?"

She opened the window and hugged me, as I held her hand.

"Isn't this a fun day to go for a walk?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Are you having fun with the waiter again today?"

"Yes-!"

When I answered loudly, he said excitedly.

"You are good at answering. All right, good girl. I'll do something fun for you!"

Nos throws me into the sky and then catches me.

'Oh, this is fun.'

I laughed happily.

Then

"Are you having fun?"

A rough voice came from behind Nos.

"Well!"

Nos hands clenched as he hugged me.

"You seem to be having so much fun with my daughter."
