The Baby Raising A Devil-Chapter 264

Chapter 264

TL: Zimmings

An hour ago,

While watching the battle through the screen installed in the room of Empress Cecilia, I narrowed my forehead. Cecilia, who was holding a teacup in front of me, asked.

“Lady, are you feeling uncomfortable?”

“Aunt, don’t call her lady. You’ll get in trouble again.”

The only places where we can see through magic tools are the imperial palace and the plaza.

As I became younger, I could not go to the imperial palace alone where the nobles were gathered. So I asked Tri to dress up as my maid and entered Cecillia’s palace.

When Tri said in high spirits, “Right?”

Cecilia covered her cheek with one hand and muttered.

“It’s been a while, but I can’t get used to it.”

“You said you started as the knight of Dubblede, right?”

“Yes. Triloni, you should call her properly at the palace.”

“Oh, that’s right. Aunt…”

Tri muttered, and in the meantime, Cecilia once again asked,

“Lady?”

“…… Brother is weird.”

“Hmm?”

“His facial expression and complexion are weird too. Why?”

“Really?”

Johann never expressed his feelings even if he was sick, so I had to take a closer look at Johann than other brothers. I could be sure of that.

‘That expression. It’s definitely when he endured the pain.’

But why?

It is impossible that he, who is meticulous, did not control his condition before this important stage.

Wasn’t he okay before the battle began? When he gathered with the commanders of each family and pledged loyalty to the emperor, he showed no signs of pain.

Yet he was like this out of the blue on such an important event.

“…… Withdraw.”

“What?”

Cecilia opened her eyes wide in surprise, and I hurriedly took out the communication device.

[Yes, this is Noanoke.]

“Maybe I’ll have to go out. Send me what you’ve prepared for the battle.”

[I’ll hurry up.]

After ending the call, I gripped its core.

It’s the ball joint doll, Lane I prepared just in case.

Through the hands of Veronica and Trigon, it turned into the shape of Leblaine Lisette Dubblede perfectly, heading to the battlefield.

And now, after preparing Lane, I could see the battlefield through the doll’s eyes.

Dubblede soldiers were surrounded on all sides, and Johann, who stood in front of them, was pale.

“Johann!”

Mina, who was next to Paladin Jonathan, called him. Jonathan held Mina, who was about to run towards him at that moment.

“Calm down, child.”

“Johann, Johann…!”

Just then,

[Replace a soldier.]

The sound of announcing the replacement of Dubblede rang out in the room.

People’s eyes flocked to Lane that stood on the mountain, in other words, me.

Meanwhile, Mina, who pushed Jonathan away, reached out to Johann. At the same time, I move through teleportation.

I held Mina’s wrist before she reached Johann. He uttered my name “……Leblaine.”

“How can you…”

That was Mina. Then, Jonathan shouted.

“Let go of the child!”

“Who?”

“What?”

“So which child are you talking about?”

There was a strange atmosphere around. The commanders of the family who allied with Mina glanced at Jonathan.

Jonathan, who coughed, said.

“Let go of the second child of fate.”

And I replied straight away.

“I don’t want to.”

“Huh…!”

“Am I a fool to let go of the foolish commander who jumped into the enemy camp?”

“Child!”

I destroyed the barrier that our enemies made to trap us.

Boom! Boom!

The barrier burst into the sky as if it was a firecracker, and when our enemies were surprised, I raised Mina’s wrist and said.

“You guys are it. Catch me!”

I giggled furiously and moved away.

***

Imperial palace.

[Catch me!]

Leblaine’s voice reverberated in the room, and the hall was filled in silence. Some people opened their mouths but no sound came out.

As soon as Leblaine destroyed the barrier and moved with Mina, Dubblede soldiers quickly supported her.

“What should I say about this? Well, the first child of fate is indeed… So… … .”

The lady spoke vaguely, but everyone understood her.

She’s mad.

She acted so carefree on a big battlefield, as if it was a game.

‘If I were a soldier in Amity’s army, I would faint because of the ridiculous situation.’

A noble who gulped, muttered.

“But she really has tremendous ability. She could use teleportation after breaking through the barrier that even Dubblede Irie could not break.”

“It’s hard for her to be so bold without being supported by her ability.”

Dubblede, who had been cornered, escaped as soon as she appeared.

It was a rather funny sight, but she really made a strong impression.

Isaac smiled despondently.

“If possible, she should show up a little earlier.”

Henry, who had been frozen all along, also smiled.

“I’m sure it’s a ball jointed doll. Did they prepare it in advance?

“They’ve been locked up in the warehouse with Veronica for days.”

Isaac, who said so, glanced at Theodore, who was looking at the scene.

“Are you taking this opportunity to replace older brother?”

Theodore coughed, and the people gathered in the hall focused on the scene again.

The place where Dubblede moved to was Mount Redgus. Mina, who was tied to a rope, frowned.

[Leblaine, you’re mean.]

[Aren’t you the mean one for working together with most of the participating families?]

[This is a battle. Jonathan said that it is common to work together between countries in a battle.]

[Jonathan must have taught you that it’s common to take hostages in a battle.]

When Leblaine shrugged, Mina, who bit her lips as if she had nothing to say, said,

[I’d rather you cut my shoulder strap.]

[Why should I?]

[Huh?]

[If I take you, they won’t be able to attack me. Why would I cut your shoulder strap?]

When I said that, I looked at our soldiers and shouted,

[If you think they will attack you, use Mina as a shield!]

[Yes!]

[Yes!]

The people replied loudly, and Leblaine laughed.

[Try attacking me.]

[Leblaine!]

[You won’t have strength if you scream like that. Stay calm. That’s how you endure torture.]

[To- torture? You’re going to torture me?]

[Didn’t Jonathan teach you that it’s common to cooperate in battle? I’ll teach you that torture is also common.]

Leblaine, who said so, squatted in front of Mina and pulled out a feather. Then Leblaine used it to tickle her.

When Leblaine tickled her nose, Mina screamed.

Laughing burst out in the Imperial Palace Hall. The godmother who laughed with a loud noise, told Theodore.

“She’s always so cheerful”.

“She doesn’t lose her humor even in the worst situation.”

“Yes. Would a person with a daughter live in sorrow?”

Theodore and the godmother laughed, as people also burst into laughter, saying, “Of course!”

But there were some people who didn’t.

Duke Marche whispered to the Duke of Amity.

“Did you prepare for this situation?”

“All the plans were made by Jonathan. I don’t know if she had a sense of ‘humour’.”

“…it’s going to be difficult for the second child.”

The people who supported Amity were grim. The scene of Leblaine with the devil’s wings running away with Mina kept replaying in their minds.

***

Bang!

Eston, the eldest son of the Duke of Marche and the younger brother of Empress Yvonne, hit the table.

“What’s wrong with that girl? If you have a mouth, tell me Jonathan!”

Jonathan became mute and gulped.

The atmosphere on their side is not good. Despite the announcement that Johann Dubblede was replaced and a new soldier was put in, the atmosphere was becoming more grim.

“We still have a chance. Dubblede didn’t have any allies. They also can’t even attack recklessly.

“Can we attack then?”

“That’s….”

“That evil Dubblede girl might set up the second child as a shield wherever we attack. At that time, will we be able to attack properly?”

“…….”

“Replace the second child. We can’t keep shaking like this.”

“It’s impossible.”

The pope ordered it. Through this battle, Mina’s name should resonate widely. The temple’s goal was to replace Leblaine’s name with Mina’s in people’s minds.

‘But what should we do with the foolish second child of fate?’

Just then,

Boom!

A roar rang out. It was the first Dubblexe attack in the battle.
