Chapter 114

TL: Zimming

Isaac kicked the door of the room.

It’s my 4th life. Thanks to that, my intuition and senses became really great.

I quickly slapped Prince Deriber’s hand.

“Leblaine, if you have a man approaching you, say this.”

“I hope you realize that you live in a world where one wrist could be cut easily!”

“After that, this is what you say.”

“If you don’t want to die, go away!”

“Then say this.”

“Dubbled is famous for our swordsmanship. So we would use our sword rather than words.”

I said what my brothers told me. The three brothers nodded with proud faces, so I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.

‘I saved someone.’

When I thought it would be over, Deriber said,

“I’m sad, lady…what did I do? It’s unfair, I didn’t even grab your waist.”

I was startled like my dad and brothers, we looked at Deriber at once.

“Waist?”

“Whose waist?”

“Wai—st?”

“……”

Isaac touched his sword as Henry said,

“Lebaline, avoid crowded places. They’re a hassle to deal with.”

Then Isaac put his arm on Deriber’s shoulder.

“Let’s go out for a second.”

“Me?!”

Deriber, who looks three or four years older than Isaac, was delighted by his request.

“Of course…ugh!”

He suddenly groaned, veins were protruding on the back of Isaac’s hand, which was holding his shoulder.

Isaac said with a big smile.

“Smile, smile.”

Only then did Deriber realize something was strange, but it was too late.

He was already being dragged out by Isaac, followed by Henry and Johann.

I paid silent tribute.

‘Goodbye, I tried hard to save you already.’

Deriber, who came back to the party, was shivering with a pale face. Also changing the red pants he was wearing for some reason.

After that, he ran out of the place while screaming.

And I realized.

There are four dangers that shouldn’t be brought to this party.

I glanced at them.

“Leblaine, should I get you some juice?”

“Blaine, if you’re tired, go home first.”

“Kid, do you want to try that?”

“Your clothes are thin. I’ll tell people to bring your coat.”

…The four dangers smiled broadly.

I dragged Zachary to where the chairman was at.

And I told the chairman.

“Take care of my dad and brothers.”

Zachary looked at me suspiciously.

“Is there a problem?”

“Don’t let any casualties happen.”

“The party is not a battlefield. What could happen…”

Zachary, who said so, looked at my dad and brothers. His expression became strange.

Dad and brothers were watching the people at the party as if they were searching for a prey.

The chairman said,

“I’ve already told the vassals too. I told them to take care of the masters.”

“Good job.”

Come to think of it, the vassals were gazing at each other with a frightened look.

Zachary muttered.

“Isn’t the percentage of people my age at the party too high? …wait, ah!”

The smart Zachary quickly understood it.

“This incident has made them think that I’m really a child of fate. The reaction of the Vatican and the church are also extraordinary. I’m also pretty much loved by my family”

“A prospective bride.”

Mina said that in her world, I am like a lotto.

“…Those people are aiming for a marriage.”

“Yes.”

“But do you think there’s someone dumb enough to approach the little miss?”

The chairman replied to the remark.

“They think it’s possible to forced a marriage.”

“What?”

“Why do you think that the children of a powerful family want to be engaged in a forced marriage? It’s because honors are their life. First they will kidnap and touch her, after that they’ll have no choice but to let her be married.”

“They are trying to create a flaw so that she will have to get married? Crazy…!”

Such things have happened in the past.

Of course, the frequency has decreased significantly in the present, but I know well that if a person is blinded by greed, they’ll lose their reason and would try everything.

Of course, my dad and my brothers know that.

“Congratulations, Your Excellency! You have such a wonderful daughter.”

“Wonderful?”

“Yes?”

“She’s not wonderful.”

…They tried to protect me in a foolish way.

“Anyway, take care of them. I’m going elsewhere for a moment.”

“Where are you going?”

“I have to go collect my debts.”

The Duke of Vallua’s debt.

The chairman understood me immediately.

“Should I go too?”

“No, you’re very soft. I feel like you’re going to faint if you see me hit him.”

“In my old days, I was…!”

The chairman became gloomy, as I touched Zachary’s armor.

“Help me from behind.”

Now it’s time to use Zachary properly.

Seria is not the right person for the escort. Rather, Seria and the chairman were the ones I had to use for a real emergency.

Zachary followed me from behind.

We walked down the dark hallway and headed to the place where the Duke of Vallua was at.

“May I ask what it means to collect your debts?”

Zachary’s voice was strangely serious.

After five years of raising him, I looked carefully at Zachary.

Is he a person who I could reveal my identity to?

There are certain criterias for people that I could reveal my identity to.

Loyalty.

Skills.

And they must have a desire which is more precious than me.

The reason why I don’t tell my family or Lea is because they didn’t meet the last criteria.

The chairman wants to meet Louis again.

Seria’s desire to find the children from the orphanage.

Zachary also had a desire to protect his friends who grew up with him and become the best knight on the empire.

If someone had something precious to them, they could abandon me in case of emergency.

That means they won’t question my choices and stop my plans.

“I owe something to Duke of Vallua. I’ll talk about the details next time.”

“…yes.”

Zachary is a quick-witted and wise man, even

though he’s easygoing.

Me and Zachary left the building. As soon as he came out, Zachary hid himself in the dark. The Duke of Vallua was shouting at a communications device.

“How the hell did you do that…! Oh, Lady Dubbled.”

After he screamed, he saw me and put the communication device in his pocket.

“What is the main character of the party doing here?”

“I’m here to see the Duke.”

The Duke of Vallua smiled slightly.

In front of the fountain, only the footsteps of the Duke was heard.

“How brave of you.”

He got closer and made eye contact with me. Then, he held my shoulder gently.

“It must have been a lie when people say that you are clever, you have done everything wrong.”

“……”

“What should I do with this cute mouse?”

My shoulders were shivering.

I’m still scared of him.

The assault and remarks I suffered when I couldn’t protect myself left a trauma.

Even if I try to hold it in, I can’t stop shaking.

The Duke of Vallua, who saw me like that, said,

“Your father ordered you to play tricks on me? But it’s useless. You are nothing in front of me.”

“What a worthless fellow.”

“Do you feel like you have everything because you are the child of fate?”

“……”

“But, child. Those who can see the truth knows. You’re a fake.”

“……”

“You have been loved because of your title, but if the truth comes out, you’ll have to be kicked out empty handed.”

“……”

“I will become the leader of all men and eventually you’ll be the one begging me. So you should be humble today.”

There were times when I wanted to forgive him and move on.

It’s so painful to hate someone. If I forgive them, I thought the fear will disappear.

If he was on his knees in front of me and begged for forgiveness, I would stop.

But that’s what I thought before.

“Are you afraid of me?”

“What?”

“Daddy said, frightened dogs will try to bite people.”

“You…!”

“But now you have to be more scared.”

The Duke of Vallua’s expression became grim.

“What nonsense is that…!”

“Pay back my money.”

“The three million francs you borrowed from Sir Lane, also the five million francs your wife borrowed. That’s my money.”

“Wha, what?!”

I smiled broadly.

“You didn’t even pay the interest! When I asked my brother, he said I could take your house! Get out of your house, trash.”

The Duke of Vallua, whose face was flushed, said.

“Wh, what…that can’t be right!”

I gave him the papers.

“Why not?”

After checking the contents of the document, the Duke of Vallua turned pale.

The meticulous man borrowed 3 million francs after reviewing the documents, but not his wife.

Forfeiture of property if interest cannot be paid.

Since he couldn’t pay back five million francs, the secret storage in his room is mine!
