The Baby Raising A Devil-Novel

Chapter 65

TL:Zimming

‘Oh, no.’

Dubbled was not a family that loved each other just because they were a family.

The ancestor saw their children as a tool of power, and even the duke’s father slaughtered up to ten brothers and left only two.

What I said probably doesn’t make any sense to Javelin.

‘Oh no. I was just trying to get along, but I made her even angrier.’

I made a desperate excuse.

“Well, I won’t upset you anymore. I’m really going to stay quiet. Be quiet, not to be seen by you. I’ll walk carefully so that I won’t bother you. So can you forgive me…?”

When I looked up with a desperate face, Javelin’s eyes were distorted.

“You’re…”

“….?”

“….go inside.”

Javelin walk past me.

After she’s completely gone, I breathed a sigh.

Leah muttered with a guilty look,

“Little miss, because of me…”

‘No, it’s not because of Lea.’

I opened my arms with a disheartened look. As always, Lea Hugged me.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

The administrators hurried through the hall.

“Your Excellency, the Empress has fallen!”

When I heard a loud cry, I held Lea’s shoulder tightly in my arms.

‘It has started.’

***

Adolf rushed into the palace to check the situation. The royal physician was looking at her, and the empress showed no sign of waking up.

“What is it?”

When asked why, the physician were at a loss.

“We have no idea. She was healthier than usual a week ago. The pain she used to complain about is gone. She have been walking a lot, and she had a great complexion, so why did this happen all of a sudden…”

“It could be poison.”

“There was no such thing in the tests.”

The royal physician asked the Empress Dowager’s maid.

“Did she eat the wrong food?”

“That can’t be true! Her majesty owns a poison tester, if there’s a problem, the tester would have collapsed too.”

The empress also didn’t have a particular allergy.

“Have you noticed anything unusual lately?”

“Other than taking the medicine of youth…”

“The medicine of youth. Do you mean the medicine they sell on the market?!”

The physician groaned and saw the empress who had fallen. Why is she so immature when she gets older?

Medicine that did not receive confirmation from the physician could not be brought into the palace.

It was strictly forbidden because it could be used as a poison.

“But it didn’t happen to anyone else.”

The maid glanced at Adolf.

“Not the medicine on the market, but the priest has prepared them with similar efficacy.”

At her words, people looked at Adolf.

He was very confused too.

‘What the hell is going on?’

He must have stolen the manufacturing method from the top of hope and made it the same. But why only the empress?

In this case, it is all his fault that the empress collapsed but he couldn’t say that the priest himself had stolen the recipe.

If they find out that the priest who manages the central church committed theft, he will be kicked out immediately.

‘I need to blame the people on the top of hope.’

Adolf immediately contacted a worker on the top of the hope.

***

Martin, a worker who has been working at the top of hope for three years, clucked his tongue.

He was so greedy for money that he accepted the priest’s offer. But he didn’t know it would bother him so much.

“Is there really no one who’s sick after taking the medicine?”

“Yes, people has never visited us because of that reason.”

“Then make a problem.”

The priest handed over the medicine bottle. He said to mix this powder to the stocks there.

It wasn’t that hard to mix the powder in the medicine.

Martin, a member of the guard, knew the patrol route and the shift times of the guards better than anyone else, and even knew when the workers were leaving.

He took advantage of the absence of people and came into the warehouse.

Fumbling against the wall in the dark, he found the stock of medicine for youth.

In the past five years, the top of hope has grown so much.

There was too much luggage in the warehouse, and it’s dark inside.

As soon as he was wiping out the sweat with the back of his hand, he tore through the sack.

“What are you looking for?”

“What else…the medicine of…ugh!”

A light came into the dimly lit warehouse.

A girl was smiling as she sat on a sack.

“Luminous medicine?”

“Wha, wha, what! who are you?!

He was frightened, struggling and waving his hand.

When he turned his head, it was the vice-president and her aide Curtis.

“What are you doing here?”

Martin’s face turned pale at their question. “Th, that…” he exclaimed.

“I, I was told to search for something by the owner.”

“How do you know the owner?”

Once the vice-leader tries to grasp the situation, he must flee.

The girl walked softly and held out her upper body with her hands on her back.

“What kind of excuse is that?”

“….what?”

“When did I give such an order?”

Martin laughed at the child’s words.

“How can a little girl be the owner…gasp!”

Seria caught him by the neck. Seria, who looked down at him was about to twist his neck like a bug.

“Shh- the owner didn’t allow you to speak.”

“…..!”

No way!

The top of hope has grown in just five years.

She monopolized Spinel and controlled the business.

Does it make sense that the owner is a girl under 10?

However, even the upper ups of the top were very polite to the child.

“Let it go.”

The child came to him slowly.

“I think I treated the workers pretty well.”

Martin’s throat was parched by the girl’s words.

The child’s little hand touched Martin’s shoulder.

“Huh? What do you think.”

“That, I…”

The child shrugged at Martin, who was scared and couldn’t answer properly.

“Well, that’s enough.”

“…pardon?”

“I didn’t want to forgive you.”

For a moment, he felt the back of the child’s hand shining, and he felt burning sensation all over his body.

The child’s hand shone red and his body seemed to be burning as if he had swallowed a fireball.

“Agghhh—!”

Martin, who was shaking as if he had been electrocuted, said, “Sa,save me!” He was screaming and fell down.

The child with an expressionless face, left.

Curtis gulped as he looked at Seria staring at the child’s back with her forehead narrowed.

The child must have been very powerful to make a man like this.

Who would have thought that the powerful owner, would be a child who looked less than 10 years old.

“She grew up wonderfully!”

Seria said.

LeBlaine, whom she met after a few years, had become a true young miss of Dubbled.

***

<Seria’s office>

Standing in front of the full-length mirror, she wore three hats, two mufflers, gloves and various accessories.

“Ah, I think this would look good on you too.”

Seria, who put so many things on me, brought me another bunch of things in her arms.

“That’s enough. I don’t need it.”

“You look good in everything.”

I put the things Seria give me and folded them as I put them in a box.

These goods are all precious stock for making money.

“Did you already take care of Martin?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, then I’ll go back.”

“Stay a little longer. It’s your first time in the top. I have a lot to show you,” Seria said, glistening her eyes.

“Are you okay with showing yourself to Curtis?”

I nodded at her words.

“He’s the one Seria trusts. Then I trust him too.”

“You say something pleasant. Now, this is what you asked for.”

I got the paper envelope Seria gave me. I checked inside and nodded.
