The Baby Raising A Devil's
Chapter 35

...***...

Cattlea Walston is the prettiest child in the Dubbede branch of the family.

She has brilliant blonde hair that resembles her mother and dazzling blue eyes, which are a symbol of the Dubbede family.

A few days ago, Baron Walston returned to his house with great joy.

"The opportunity has come!"

The baroness asked her husband who looked happy. "What do you mean by opportunity?"

"The chance for our daughter to be Dubbede's son!"

"What do you mean? You've been rejected, haven't you?"

Not infrequently branch families send children to attend genealogical education. Especially if it was a child like Cattlea.

The baron princess had incredible divine power. Therefore, he received his education from the church from an early age.

As long as he continued to grow like this, the Baron could take the position of high priest. Moreover, if he had the help of Duke Dubbede, he might be able to become a cardinal.

The couple asks the Duke to accept their daughter for a foothold, but they are rejected. Their hands are full of three children.

"The elders said they'd give me support."

"Why all of a sudden?"

"What do you mean? It's because of the Child of Destiny."

The baroness frowned. Just hearing the words Child of Destiny alone pissed him off.

They said their hands were full, but they adopted the boy anyway.

Although it was the Empress' request, they felt angry when they thought that a child who had not even reached the level of Cattlea had occupied the position their daughter should have occupied.

"Will the Duke change his mind this time?"

"At that time, he had never seen Cattlea well, so he rejected her. If they were to give up the position of Child of Fate, they would realize how foolish their judgment was."

The baroness pursed her lips hearing her husband's arrogance.

Rumors have spread that the Child of Destiny was given a middle name. That was the Duchess's former name.

It is not pleasant to think that they are tossed about by an ordinary child.

But if Cattlea is in Dubblede and replaces her, then,

The baroness can interfere in Dubblede's affairs under the pretext of helping her daughter. He was a helpless Baroness, so he could rule over the nobles who ignored him earlier.

The baroness stroked Cattlea's hair, saying, "Can you please Her Majesty and the two brothers?"

Hearing the question, Cattlea smiled brightly, "When have I ever let you down, mother?"

"That's right." The baron lady kissed her daughter's head.

.......But

Cattlea clasped her skirt tightly.

Duke brought the meat he had given, and placed it onto Leblaine's plate.

"Eat slowly."

Leblaine opened her eyes wide as she stared at Cattlea and Duke alternately.

As Cattlea looked at me intently, I took the meat again and slipped it into Duke's plate.

"No, Dyuke ate it."

Then, Duke raised the meat that Leblaine had laid with a clean fork. And eating.

"This is the first bite of meat my daughter gave me."

Cattlea's face turned sour.

I gave it to you first....!

...***...

Cattlea, who left the castle with the followers after dinner, gritted her teeth.

He could not hold back his anger.

'What just happened?!'

She was just a little girl who could not even speak properly.

'I am sweeter and smarter, she is just a little girl!'

Tears unconsciously washed his eyes.

"Don't cry."

Cattlea was startled by the sound that sounded beside her.

As he turned his head, an elder, whom he recognized as his father's friend, smiled.

"How can a Dubbede child cry over a small thing?"

"Can I really be little miss Dubbede?"

"Of course."

"But Duke didn't even see me."

Cattlea stared at the wide passageway, her father and mother both looking anxious.

"Well, it's because the child of fate happened to help the family several times..."

Few know about it.

Tells where Oriharkon is buried, and finds a second Etwal.

The elder continued, "Don't worry, we'll change his mind."

Then he bowed and likened his height to Cattlea.

"As long as you trust us, all of us. And please pay us for this in the future."

She spoke to him politely, as if she was really little miss Dubblede.

That was when a smile appeared on Cattlea's face.

...***...

Two days later.

I just stared at them.

"Sir."

"YES......?"

"I'm telling you because I don't think you know."

"Yes." Yeah."

"I also like to eat meat."

"......"

Henry just smiled, but I think he wanted to say something too.

This is not fair.

I only returned the meat Cattlea gave to the Duke. I gave it back because I didn't want to hurt her feelings just because of a piece of meat.

Isaac continued, "If you discriminate against us like this, I will also discriminate against you."

I sighed and searched in my pocket.

'Is there anything I can give him?'

I searched through the pouch and found some wildflowers that I was looking for yesterday in the garden for Lea.

I met Cattlea after that so I didn't have time to make a bouquet and just kept it in my pocket.

The wildflowers in my pocket are tattered, but this is all I have.

I took a bunch of wildflowers for Henry and Isaac.

The two brothers opened their eyes wide.

"Are you giving this to us?"

"Yes." Yeah."

As she replied, the two received the flowers with trembling hands.

"That boy, for me...."

"Flower for me...."

"Sorry, sir," said Henry's servant, who suddenly opened the door.

"Everyone has been invited to see Cattlea release the Dubbede ancient artifact barrier"

'You mean that ancient artifact?'

Dubbede.

It was something sacred and only the chosen could let go.

The ancestor left the heirloom and said that it could be used only when the daughter of the main family was born with divine power.

Isaac shouted.

"What do you mean?! The Duke's daughter was this little girl, so why was she....!"

Henry's expression was getting colder as well.

He asked, "Where are the followers?"

"They're in the living room."

Henry and Isaac immediately left the hall.

Cattlea, who was standing between them, smiled at me and the two brothers who had just entered the room.

In front of the Duke and his followers' seats was a luxurious box.

At first glance, it was like a huge rock.

'Is it an ancient artifact?'

The followers opened their mouths to the Duke, saying, "Weather experts predict that a severe drought will come next year."

Thas right.

Even the emperor's family, nobles, and the church had already predicted that and prepared for it, but the drought continued for a long time.

"Isn't this the time we need the power of an ancient artifact?"

"It would be helpful if this stone, as the records show, could awaken the water spirit."

"And the daughter of Baron Walston had a powerful divine power. I'm sure he can let go of the barrier."

Henry, who heard the story, looked back at the Duke.

"We can't let that happen because the artifact belongs to our family."

I nodded in my heart.

"Of course, we are aware of the dangers of doing this. It could cause internal strife."

Isaac opened his lips, "Then, why are you still talking about this nonsense?"

The corner of the elder's mouth was raised.

"If Cattlea Walston is adopted by the Dubbede family, you will be able to save the people of the land without causing any incidents."

'That's their original purpose.'

I looked at Cattlea, whose cheeks were blushing.

"certain. If only the Child of Fate could release the barrier, would we make this request?"

"The child of fate, who has a small amount of divine power, will not be able to break through the barrier."

The followers shouted, "How dare you criticize the Child of Destiny!"

"Then, can he do it?"

"That'S....!"

"By the way."

The gazes of the elders turned towards me, who was standing beside Viscount Dubos.

"Is he really the Son of Destiny?"
