The Baby Raising A Devil-Novel

Chapter 121

TL: Zimming

The investigation began,

It was not difficult to specify an entity that had falcon wings and dog fangs, and could create barriers that even the court mages and priests in the imperial palace could not destroy.

The imperial palace proclaimed the attacker as an ‘unholy being’, and was searching throughout the empire.

Seria said, as she handed a milk to me,

“The palace must be convinced it’s not an attack from another country.”

“It’s a busy farming season. There’s no threat from other empire, and there’s no way they’re going to attack them now. Unless they want to starve their people to death.”

“Yes, what’s important is that the child’s devil was just announced as ‘unholy beings’ in the church, even though I’m sure they know that it’s a devil.

I shrugged at the words of the chairman.

“The church would never declare it as devils.”

The first reason why the church were supported by the imperial palace and noble families, also collected donations from the people was because they said they are protecting the empire from the devil.

There were many other causes, but the church was mainly built to prevent the devil.

However, the fact that the devil came to the earth is like abandoning they are abandoning their duties.

“They will never use the word ‘devil’ in the church unless I bring the devil to the church and attack them.”

“Wouldn’t you be able to make a bigger comeback by preparing for a war against the devil?”

At Seria’s words, I looked out the window at the church.

“The pope considers honor even more important than the Duke of Vallua.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah. Christian became Pope by sacrificing the first priest, Günther, to seal the devil. He’s almost like the devil itself.”

“His honor comes before the lives of hundreds of millions of continents. That’s stupid.”

Seria opened her mouth while holding a teacup.

“Anyway, the investigation is going smoothly. the imperial family investigation team will soon come to the noble family.”

“And to Vallua’s mansion!”

It is obvious that the man is struggling to somehow re-enter the mansion that I had stolen to find a way out.

‘But it’s useless.”

Because of the one who guards the Vallua mansion!

I covered my mouth and grinned.

Then, Seria put the tea cup down slightly on the tea coaster.

With her hands on her knees, she stared at me with clear eyes.

“Then right now, can you tell me now. Your identity.”

I nodded lightly and said to the chairman.

“Bring Zachary and Trigon. It’s a story they should also listen to.”

“Trigon, too? If you need a mage, why dont you choose Veronica which is surely on your side.….”

“It should be Trigon.”

“Veronica has no desire for me to fulfill it.”

“……Desire?”

“The chairman has a desire to meet his son Louis, Seria has a desire to find the children of the orphanage. Likewise, Zachary has a desire to protect his orphanage friends and become the strongest knight. Trigon, no, Wale… .”

“Has the desire to protect his father.”

“I see.”

I regressed many times and realized. That you have to believe in situations rather than people.

I know how to save Trigon’s father. In the next 10 years, only I know how.

So he would never betray me.

Even if I died due to unavoidable circumstances, he will continue to pursue his goals.

The chairman was sitting opposite of us.

Seria opened the door for Zachary, who was waiting outside the office.

Soon Zachary and Trigon came into the office, I started talking.

“Do not be surprised, listen.”

“Is there anything more surprising than a nine-year-old child that instructed to kidnap me……!”

Trigon shouted, but I opened my mouth casually.

“I’ve died three times, and I’m living my fourth life. And this life I called the devil.”

“Wh, wha, what?!”

“Huh-!?”

When I saw the two men with their mouths open, I shook my head.

Look at this, you said you’d be surprised?

***

“Ugh……!”

Someone groaned seeing the fallen people.

It’s already the second time.

A middle-aged woman with black hair lightly wiped off the bloody bayonet and put it back in her pocket.

The leader of the mercenary team, who was watching the battle, stepped back with a pale face.

The man gazed at the leader.

“Attack her with more troops right away. I don’t have much time.”

“W, we can’t!”

“Did you forget how much I gave you guys? You accepted my request. Go and keep your promise!”

“Because we don’t know that we’ll attack Lea Shavanol!”

The pale faced leader shook his head.

Who is this Lea Shavanol?

She was a former vice commander of Irie, and was the most cruel knight among them.

‘Knight? No, she’s more than that!’

What an appetizing prey they must have been for her.

Numerous people attacked her, but none of them survived.

In the past he had witnessed her victory. Even though he grew up on the battlefield, he felt terrified seeing blood all over her body.

Despite being a knight, she didn’t seem anything like a mere knight.

She humiliated and killed them so cruelly.

It’s like she’s enjoying the murder.

Unlike male knights, she was naturally weak in stamina and strength, and it was probably because of her cruel character that she became the vice commander of Irie.

Since there was no news of her for a long time, he thought she had retired but she was still skillful with swords.

“I’ll pay you back. Hey, you! Pack your things. Let’s go!”

“Hey!”

The man shouted, but the mercenaries managed to escape.

‘For God’s sake…!’

The man grumbled seeing them.

This afternoon, the investigation team of the Imperial Palace will check on the noble family.

It will be his turn soon.

‘If I don’t dispose of that place before then…….’

The Duke of Vallua was trembling.

***

“Oh my god…….”

Zachary was surprised after hearing about me.

Seria was deep in thought after I said that I was assaulted and killed by Duke Vallua in my second life.

“He beat a child less than fifteen to death!”

Seria clenched her fist.

“How, how…How could you go through such a thing…….”

“I’m alright.”

“…….”

“Really, Seria.”

The chairman was now angry because I never told him the story about Duke Vallua.

“I’ll make him pay in this life.”

“Don’t dwell too much on your past life…”

I frown because Seria looked at me with pity.

“No? I suffered so much!”

It certainly happened to me.

They won’t be any different in this life. They were the same horrible scoundrel.

If the same situation came, he would have abused me again. Clearly he had done a lot of harm to me in this life.

In addition,

“I have to make him pay back double. If he kicks me, I’ll snap his leg. I’m cheap and mean!”

“You’re right.”

Seria nodded happily, so I laughed too.

“I’ve been beaten to death, and he’s going to be beaten to death. More painful than me.”

“That’s right!”

“I don’t have to be patient now. I can make them pay in this life.”

“Yes.”

When me, Seria, and the chairman were smiling at each other with a mean and vicious expression, Zachary gulped with a pale face for some reason.

“Those scary people…”

After he muttered,

“Will my father really die?”

Wale spoke out.

As I looked at him, he closed his mouth with trembling hands.

“Nobody helped him, why? But… but…”

Wale, who was silent for a long time, barely spoke out.

“He’s called a weird old man, but he’s a kindhearted person inside. He has helped many people! You mean that no one ever paid back his favor?”

“Someone’s been playing tricks on him.”

“Tricks?”

“I don’t know. But Aragon was deemed as a sinner, the rumor was so bad that no one could have helped him carelessly.”

“……”

The chairman narrowed his eyes when he heard my story.

“That’s weird. Unusual things keep happening.”

“Yes, as if an invisible hand was controlling the empire.”

Vallua brought the children from Seria’s orphanage.

He tried to mimic the fourth child of Dubbled by sacrificing those children and calling out the devil.

And the two ‘children of fate.’

As I thought about it, I looked at the chairman and opened my mouth.

“And there’s another strange thing that’s different from my memory before regression.….”

It was then.

Seria rushed into the office.

“What’s going on?”

“The palace began to search Vallua’s mansion.”

It finally begins.
