The Baby Raising A Devil

’s skin is white, so she’ll look great in dark brown cloth.”

“…..Yes.”

It was when the mother and daughter were about to choose a design and call a clerk.

“We’ll buy that.”

Henry said.

The lady looked at Henry again and pulled her daughter’s hand.

“Then we’ll go with something else… Oh, the dress with this ribbon on both sides is also adorable.”

“We’ll buy that too.”

“…..!”

I glanced at him in bewilderment, but Henry just smiled.

“Let’s pick the dress next to it.”

“I’ll buy that too.”

“Then, the dress behind you….”

“That one too.”

The lady looked back at Henry.

“Well, sir…”

“Choose, though you’ll never be able to buy anything again.”

“Wha-, what do you mean?”

“Of course, it’s not just about those dresses.
A house to live in, food to eat, clothes to wear, medicine to daily necessities.”

As the lady hardened, Henry closed his eyes and said,

“How long do people have to starve to death?”

‘That’s right.
Henry was much scarier than Isaac when he got angry.’

Then Mrs.
Lyon hung on to Henry.

“I-, I’m sorry.
We really didn’t even know that this kid is the young miss of Dubbled…!”

We were only children without a guardian, so I tried to forget about it with an apology, but I was afraid when Henry became like this.

My hands were shaking.

Henry looked at Mrs.
Lyon with a bored look.

“You’re wrong to apologize.”

It was pointless, even though they had apologized properly to me.

We sat on the sofa in Melvin’s wardrobe with an apology from more than a dozen people in Lyon’s family, including Lyon’s mother and daughter, Eugene’s grandfather, grandmother, maternal grandfather, maternal grandmother, aunt, uncle, and so on.

Melvin and the clerks watched with a shudder.

***

Melvin’s dress arrived a few days later.

Much more colorful than the one I chose, several garments shouted luxury.

Because of what happened last time Melvin was scared, so he must have been working desperately.

The clothes Melvin made with such enthusiasm were wonderful.

The brothers smiled at me as I walked around in my dress.

“One more turn, Leblaine.”

Henry spoke fondly as I turned again to the left and around him.
The employees took a video of me.

“Don’t miss even a single shot.”

When Isaac warned his employees fiercely, everyone swallowed as they fixed the video.

‘Oh my….’

I was starting to worry about the banquet now.

I was afraid I would make a mistake at the banquet.
No, I was worried someone was going to die at the banquet hall.

As I remembered so, I reached out to my brothers’ sleeves.

And I looked at them with a serious face.

“Why?”

Henry and Isaac stopped, as I said in a stern voice.

“You shouldn’t hit people at parties.”

“……”

“……”

The two men were silent.

I said again firmly, “No.”

“But in case of emergency…”

“It is impossible to predict what will happen in a place where the nobles gather, so it’s a definite answer.”

Again, these sentences didn’t work.
However, I knew what to say when this happens.

“I’m going to sleep in my blanket.”

“That….”

“Coward!”

Isaac and Henry stood up, shouting in order.

A few years ago, I caught flu while sleeping in a blanket.
I was young, and I went back and forth between life and death.
When my family returned, I was nearly dead.

I gave up my dignity to save the doctors because of it, “Brothers, I love you!”

When I thought about how much I’ve done, tears were covering my eyes.

Anyway, after that, it became a very useful threat.

“Okay! I’m not going to hit anyone.”

“……alright.”

In the end, the two answered and I nodded in satisfaction.

***

Leblaine kept emphasizing to Henry and Isaac not to hit anyone.

After that, she went up to her room to prepare for the banquet.

Isaac said with a sullen face.

“How can I protect her if someone hits her?”

Although they succumbed to Leblaine’s blackmail, Isaac and Henry were good brothers who kept their promises with their younger sister.

Henry with a melancholy voice said,

Only

“She told us not to hit them, that means we can kill them.”

“Aha!”

Only then did Isaac’s expression lighten up.

“If we kill them in one blow, we don’t have to hit them.”

“Yes,” Henry said with a wicked laugh as he looked at Isaac.

The employees who were watching the scene gulped.
