The Baby Raising A Devil Chapter 134

The party was splendid.

It was the first party to be held at the mansion after the ancestors passed away, and after Dad was attacked, it was to show that Dubbled is not shaken.

“Get rid of the champagne. Don't let those who can't control their drinking capacity make a fuss. There's nothing worse than that in a gathering of children.”

“Yes, Sir Nos.”

“Keep guarding outside the mansion. Archers shall hide around them, and some people should be placed inside the party.”

“I understand.”

Nos and aunt was in chanrge of security, so I had nothing to worry about about.

My only job is to entertain the guests.

Hadeloro's chief mage is a highly educated man, so he may know about Suwon.

I can't think that Suwon is only inside an abandoned mine.

Marquis Nodelli buys abandoned mines because if they are currently mining ore, water sources may have been found, so they have put them as an options.

“Place the seats for Ms. Hadeloro and Ms. Ragnos on my table.”

“Yes, little miss.”

The chairman glanced at me while writing down my words in his notebook.

“Did you know that the vassals mentioned Johann's marriage at this morning's meeting?”

“Johann's marriage?”

Usually, if you are a nobleman, marriage is discussed at my age, so Johann is late.

I had a feeling of ominous foreboding at the moment. I narrowed my eyes and looked at the chairman.

“Who is the candidate?”

“Elizabeth Nodelli.”

When I got up, the chairman quickly grabbed me.

“Where are you going?”

“To dad. Did he want him to marry the daughter of the family that has attacked him? Does that make sense?”

“Think reasonably. If he marry Elizabeth Nodelli, there is no danger of being attacked anymore. The Marquis of Nodelli wouldn't attack as her daughter could be taken as hostage.”

“The vassals don't know that it was Nodelli who ordered dad's attack. But why did he have to marry?”

“Because of Vallua.”

Dubbled boasts a reputation of being unbeatable in ground battle, but not as much as in a naval battle.

If we could have the Vallua's fleet, Dubbled would be able to conquer naval battles as well.

If Pymon was the best in terms of information, then the best one in the empire is Vallua.

Vallua didn't have many armies due to lack of wealth. They had only one fifth of what other families had but they monopolized their information so that they did not fall behind other families.

“His Excellency has been attacked, and people are more desperate for it. By the way, little miss. Do you know what's wrong with Dubbled?”

“…our relationship with other noble families is not good.”

“The party is now on your hands. We doesn't have any friends. But the Duke of Marche is different.”

In Dubbled's case, most of the problems could be solved by military and wealth, so there was no need to build relationships with the nobles.

During my father's reign, relationships with more families were estranged. This is because the hostess, who plays the role of negotiator with other families, has been absent for a long time.

“A meeting next month will determine the owner of Vallua. Seventy percent of the voting nobles support Duke Marche.”

“So you need the help of the Nodelli family, who is as good as Marche?”

“Yes. Even if our relationship has been bad before, if we have her as a daughter-in-law, they will have no choice but to support us for her daughter. Most of all, there is no child of the same descent as Elizabeth Nodelli.”

The chairman was now whispering.

“Don't you know, little miss? Given the superiority of power, you can't beat Elizabeth Nodelli. Behind her is the imperial family. You have a good relationship with the empress and the emperor, but blood is thicker than water.”

There was nothing wrong with what the chairman said.

Our relationship is only based on mutual benefit.

If I went to war with Elizabeth, my hard-earned friendship would collapse.

“With a drop of her tears, the empress could become a buffalo, and neither will the emperor sit back and watch her suffer.”

“So you want me to force Johann to marry hee?

“That's the burden on those who have enjoyed luxuries.”

“I understand, but no.”

“Little miss.”

Putting on my coat over the chair, I glanced at the chairman.

“I won't do it because I feel like I'm not going to lose.”

I touched the button on my coat and said determinedly.

“Give one and take one. Dubbled is fair,we are good people!”

The chairman looked at me stunned.

“Dubbled is good?”

Zachary, who was guarding the door, opened his mouth. Then they picked their ears as if they heard nonsense.

“If you're going to use Elizabeth, only until this incident is over.”

“I'm surprised you're not Dubbled's blood.”

“You know, chairman.”

“Yes.”

“I have lived for a long time, nothing good will come to me if I'm nice.”

When me, a nine-year-old child, told the chairman who had lived over half a century, he let out a laugh.

I shrugged casually. I'm in the 4th round of my life, and the chairman is in the 1st round.

“I'll use Johann's name. But I don't want to force him to marry.”

Also, I want to give Elizabeth a little revenge, who called me an orphan and treated me like a beggar.

“Chairman, go and stop the vassals.”

“How can I say that? Everyone already seemed to be in favor of the arrangement with Nodelli.”

“Roll the floor, or threaten them. No matter how you do it, give all of your efforts. Now, do it!”

When I shouted cheerfully, the chairman had a tired face.

As the party started, guests began to enter the garden.

“Hello, Miss Dubbled.”

“Thank you for coming.”

“What are you saying? I'm the one who had to say thank you…….”

With her flushed face, the Lady glanced at Henry, who was talking to other people.

At this time, I used my brothers because I didn't think they would let their children attend, and it was a great choice.

Even those who weren't invited furiously tried to get the invitations somehow.

I couldn't get rid of the fear that he might have said harsh things to the children because of his personality.

As I heard from Laura, Isaac's followers were generally said to have lost a screw in their head. Some ladies were stalking the terrifying Isaac just a year or two ago.

Just in time, the people Isaac picked up began to come in.

“You haven't forgotten your promise to give me your hair, have you?”

“Do you have your missing nail? They often fall out during training. If you have it, please me.”

“Me! Me, too!”

The young girls surrounding Isaac arrived at the party hall in a ravenous step. Isaac frowned.

“Okay! It's …….alright, now get in there! …please.”

He finally shouted but tried to hold it in by gritting his teeth.

It's not strange how those young kids behave when they do this every time they meet Isaac.

“Hello, Lady Dubbled!”

“I'm glad you invited me!”

“Lady is my benefactor!”

The lively young children smiled, held my hand and shook it.

Even I was surprised by Isaac's followers.

“Oh… yes, thank you for coming.”

“What are you talking about. Of course I have to come. Wherever it is, even if it's a gutter! Oh, this is a gift we prepared.”

The young children handed me a big box.

The box was filled with flowers.

The other ladies who were next to me also gave me garlands and flowers, so I handed them over to my servant.

And even the children who came with Henry said, “Oh, us too……,” she said with a shy expression, giving out the lavishly wrapped flowers.

I gave it to the servants again, and looked at the pile of gifts under my feet with tired eyes. Laura, who was waiting by my side, mumbled with a very excited face.

“Is it a war of tributes from the fanatics…?!”

It was the young children who followed Johann who sorted out what Laura said was a “tribute war.”

“Please move carefully.”

The servants put a golden statue on the floor, pushing the other gifts.

The tall lady, who appears to be Johann's age, said with a big smile.

“Here's a garland.”

“Ah……. Thank you.”

“Nice to meet you..”

The older children looked at me and smiled.

Laura still came close to me and whispered with an excited expression.

“They are members of the group that loves Johann! The lady you just talked to is Miss Alexandra Shevyne.

I know.

The youngest member to join the White Horse Battalion.

And the eldest daughter of Countess Diana Shevyne, the illegitimate daughter of King Carlos the Great.

Of course, the empire does not recognize illegitimate children, so she will not be called a princess, but Alexandra is different.

In the future, she has made numerous achievements as a captain of the White Horse Battalion and is given the title of lower level princess.

“Let's get along well.”

Alexandra held out her hand and I held her hand as fast as I could.

“I'm glad brother Johann has a good acquaintance!

When I smiled brightly, Alexandra chuckled, “Oh, my!” Other Johann's followers also adored me.

“You're much more lovelier than the rumor. Call me sister comfortably. We call each other sisters.”

“Sister?”

Johann's followers grinned as I opened my eyes deliberately.

“Don't worry. We are not those who seek any deep relationship with Johann.”

“I just admire his dignity.”

I clapped my hands inwardly. They're amazing people, and they will be even better in the future.

The future leader of the white horse battalion, the candidate of the future mage, and the owner of a big merchant guild.

The people at today's party will make up for the only weakness that Dubbled has.

Isn't that the purpose of holding a party at this time?

It was then.

“What a small party.”

With a snort, Elizabeth came into the party.

Looking around the garden, the child turned red and shouted, “Johann!”

“E,excuse me… we couldn't talk much in the carriage earlier.….”

“Hello, Miss Nodelli.”

I approached the child with a smile. The boy, whose eyes became stiff, said roughly, “Yes…….”

“It's especially nice to meet you today.”

“Me?”

“Yes! The vassals talked about the lady at the meeting this morning.”

It was usually related to the marriage when the vassals mentioned their names at meetings.

The vassal did not deliberately say which of the three children had a marriage arrangement.

The three brother's followers stared at Elizabeth with lasers from their eyes at once.

For the first time in her life Elizabeth was embarrassed, and I smiled and asked her to shake hands.
