The Baby Raising A Devil's
Chapter 43

...***...

Leblaine shook her head.

"I can't help him." (I can't help him)

"Then tell me how to make it again."

"The wean will be different from Amy." (But it will be different from Amy.) "

Adrian's gaze fell to the floor.

I remember her past in my previous life. He was the one who led the holy war victory parade on horseback.

His vibrancy can be felt even before his beautiful appearance is seen in people's eyes.

I thought at the time that no one could hurt him.

But the child I see now is filled with sadness. Just looking at it makes the heart hurt.

"But we can make a grave for them."

As I spoke in a small voice, Boone fidgeted, saying,

[Son, ten of your strawberries!], but I pretend I didn't hear them.

Adrian looked up and looked at me, I didn't avoid his eyes.

...***...

"I'll dig deep."

Adrian looked at the girl who pointed to the ground while holding Amy carefully in one hand.

"How long are you gonna dig. Here."

The girl shifts Adrian's hand, and she returns Amy to him to hold.

Then he crouched down and dug the ground. Within minutes, a hole twice the size of the one made Adrian could be seen.

"Well, now it looks like a graveyard."

He's a very strange boy. He dug well like a farmer.

Adrian has never seen anyone so nice to him.

'But.'

But if he knew who I was, his attitude would change.

Everybody is so.

The royal family, nobles, and even the people of the palace thought of it as ruining the scene.

A sight destroyer that is scary to touch, and disturbing.

As the eldest son of the emperor, and constantly examined by Empress Yvonne, the eldest daughter of Duke Marche, Adrian felt uneasy.

Physically he is alive, but at the same time he does not feel alive.

So if he knew who he really was, things would be different.

The gaze that looked at him like trash would darken with fear, and his lively eyes would definitely become gloomy. I feel sorry, but I think I should have said it earlier.

"I am the eldest son of the imperial family."

"Oh really?"

"I told you I was the daughter of a deceased empress, but I was,..."

"Continue?"

Adrian was speechless.

Bizarrely.

He should be surprised.

Although he did not know about their complicated political relationship, it was only natural to be afraid of the word imperial family.

Adrian looked at him with strange eyes, and the boy snorted.

"Is that important now?"

"....Huh uh?"

"Kalaw doesn't matter, let's bury it."  (If it doesn't matter, let's bury it.)

The boy pulled his hand.

Suddenly Adrian sat down with the boy, and let the pair of fish that had turned into water back into the hole.

The boy patted the water.

"Second, let's pray." (Now, let's pray)

Adrian looked at the boy who was holding his hands together with his eyes tightly closed.

"Please let us be together for a long time in the next life."

"......."

"Even if we fight and get angry, let us be together in the next life,"

"......."

The boy gently looked into Adrian's eyes.

"Let this child be happy."

It was as if the boy was talking about Adrian.

He could not say anything and looked at the boy. Adrian doesn't know why his eyes are damp. To clarify, this was the first time he thought he would never forget someone's name.

...***...

After burying the fish and praying, I got up from my seat

"You want to go?"

Adrian held my hand and asked, so I answered,

"Yes." Yeah."

"....Coming again?"

"Huh?"

"....Please come again."

His eyes are staring at me.

"Yes, okay."

"But if you don't come,...."

Adrian's eyes sparkled. His long eyelashes glistened in the sun.

'Wow...'

He's a good-looking guy who can rival Dubbede's.

Even though I was used to all sorts of good looks, my heart was still pounding

"Now we are friends. And friends keep their promises. So, I'll see you someday."

"Friends...."

Inevitably I laughed inwardly seeing Adrian muttering a few times because he was so sweet.

After that, I waved to say goodbye, turned around, and ran away.

'I'm late, so late!'

I came here under the pretext of playing hide-and-seek, but half an hour has passed.

As I headed to the park, I heard a voice shouting,

"Where are you, Little Miss?!"

The knights and servants frantically searched for me.

I jumped up and shouted, and people were running.

"Oh my God...."

Lea was relieved when she saw me.

"Where are you going? I'm so worried, I can't find you no matter how hard I'm looking."

The place I was in was not far from the park, but if they could not find me, it might be because Adrian had built a barrier.

I said, "I'm wrong..." (I was wrong.).

Lea sighed and cleaned the dirt from my skirt.

"It's okay because you're safe. But please don't do this next time."

"Yes." Yeah."

"We got permission to leave. Now let's go home."

As he said so, I nodded with a bright expression.

[Strawberries! Little miss, ask her if she'll give you ten strawberries.]

I looked at Lea.

"Lea, ten strawberries?"

"That's...."

Lea's eyes narrowed.

"You broke a promise, so I'll only give you five."

Oh God.

As a shocked expression appeared on Leblaine's face, laughter exploded all around her.

...***...

I can only get five strawberries, but I'm in a good mood right now.

The money Urso borrowed was returned to its original owner, but enough money remained even after the surrender.

'There are 6,000 francs.'

Seria's arrest reward is 30,000 francs, which means the total amount of money I have right now is 36,000 francs.

'Now, I have to keep looking for ways to make money so I can find a place to live later.'

I know about some good things I can invest in.

The problem is I'm too young to contact investment targets.

This is the reason why I lived in poverty when I was a beggar.

Of course, I had to live as quietly as possible because I didn't want to stand out, but because of that, I couldn't invest.

'I need an adult to help me.'

Seria was one of the options, but she had her limitations because now she was branded a criminal. He is still alive but must remain in prison.

I can't continue to rely on Boone for help. My holy power is inadequate, so it is impossible for me to maintain its form for the next five days.

'I need to decide when to use the power of Boone.'

It's an ability I don't really need, but it's a pity not to use it.

While I was thinking that, the horse carriage stopped. We have arrived at Dubbede Castle.

As soon as the door opened, Henry and Isaac approached me.

"Why are you home late?"

As Isaac drew his face closer and questioned me, Henry pushed him aside and hugged me.

"You're having a hard time, aren't you?"

Then Isaac took me away and took my hand.

"I asked the chef to prepare your favorite meat."

Henry turned to the other side to argue with Isaac while directing his question at me.

"Didn't eating late at night be bad for your health? I think you'd rather have a simple meal on the terrace and a delicious breakfast tomorrow."

"It's not healthy not to eat."

"The boy is weak. Don't compare him to a monster like you."

They tried to keep me away from each other's grasp, as my eyes widened like plates.

"Ouch..."

I groaned and suddenly I was taken into the Duke's arms.

"Don't fight."

As the Duke spoke sternly, Henry and Isaac looked at each other with dissatisfied faces, but immediately replied, "Yes, ..."

'Oh, I can still live anyway.'

It was hard to get caught between the two of them because the journey was exhausting and I worked hard to keep Boone quiet.

I leaned my face in Duke's arms.

I was very tired but I had to say hello to them.

"I'm back."

Then the gazes of Duke, Henry, and Isaac softened.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Welcome home."

"Let's go in."

After being here for a few months, I really felt like I was back home.

...***...

The next day, I got the strawberries that Lea promised me for lunch.

As I looked with sparkling eyes at the strawberries filled with whipped cream, Boone rejoiced, saying, [Good for you, my dear.]

Lea gave me a breastplate cloth and took out some strawberries from the bowl.

"....Three, four, five."

"Lea, I like you."

As I kissed Lea on her cheek as a sign of gratitude, the servants screamed.

"Little lady, I helped Lea apply the cream."

And then Dahlia stretched out her cheek.

"I also pick strawberries."

Linda approached me.

"Please do it for me too."

Yuni tilted her head towards me.

I kissed their cheeks once again and took the fork again.

[I can also get milk for you.]

'What?'

[I can also pick strawberries. Should I appear in human form?]

"......"
