Chapter 4
4 Chapter 4
"Hppaghhh!"
I crawled up to the forest of the withered roses to search Dietrich. I found a figure that looked like him from a distance and hustle hard.
The forest of withered roses was a small garden belonging to Camille. In other words, it was a small garden attached to the Dahlia Palace where Dietrich and I lived.
'A withered rose. Why did you name it like that?'
Is it because it's the villain's favorite place?
The name is very confusing.
Dietrich hated being with people like a psychopath.
So he spend most of his time alone in this garden since childhood.
It was not just a gloomy scene.
So it's not just the names of those withering, but literally all plants are dead.
It believable even if a ghost appears at night.
'That's so scary because it really suits the villain.'
"Ppeuu!" (Dietrich!)
As if swallowing the light, the black hair that looked from behind must belong to Dietrich. I crawled like a small dog, moving my short legs very hard.
"Poppa" (Brother!)
But as I got closer, Dietrich wasn't alone.
"Please take it out!"
'Ugh. What is that? '
A man's head was placed at his feet.
'No, You're right to say you're stuck.'
The human head wasn'tt originally raised from the ground like seeds, so it must have been buried.
"Damn it, take it out! You bastard!"
"You are the first to break the rules of the game, Yuric."
'Yuric?'
I stuck close to Dietrich's back.
However, I closed my mouth to Dietrich's bloody face.
It's a face without a soul even though he is burying a person on the ground.
'Oh, I think I chose the wrong path.'1
I don't know if I should be hanging on to Derreck rather than Dietrich.
I couldn't even imagine this person would care about his sister and my mind made me laugh.
No, Derreck was defeated by Dietrich anyway, so it no use to see it well.
'Stand on this damn man's side.'
I start to feel skeptical about my effort to crawling hard from room to room.
"….. what?"
Dietrich grabbed and lifted my side near his feet, so near with the planted place.
He seems to never hugged a child before. That first impression was what I got when I saw the hand that was holding me roughly uneasily.
What power does a six-year-old child have with a baby?
However, Dietrich didn't show any signs of stiffness at all.
"Why are you rolling around?"
"Pa !!!"
(no!)
I am a little offended by Dietrich's words that treat me like a ball, but I just laugh without feeling uncomfortable.
'I'm cute! So won't I be pretty?'
With a sincere desire, I look up with my eyes shining brightly.
"Bbbaba!"
(Hi!)
"Ha."
Dietrich frowned at me as if he was bothering by me and hugged me.
When he turned away to go back to the castle, I was able to see the pale face who buried in the ground.
Even though the soil was buried, the legs of the brilliant-red haired figure opened to the ground like cabbage.
"What you looking at!"
It was Dietrich who buried him on the ground, but he was annoyed at me. He looked at me as if want to eat me.
'The person with red hair …'
Yuric LaGrange.
The boy was a supporting role that appeared in the novel.
LaGrange inherited the black eyes mixed with red flags from generation to generation, but I remember Yuric LaGrange was the only person who doesn't.
'Yuric was clearly the right arm of Dietrich, who was already the Grand Duke in the novel.'
It was also Yuric who by Dietrich's orders Will directly fetched the neck of his father, Derreck LaGrange.
After Dietrich was sealed by the male protagonist, Yuric was faithful enough to rescue him without giving up.
'But why is loyalty buried in the ground?'1
Was their relationship initially bad?
That part isn't mentioned in the novel, so I don't know.
"Pa?"
(Why is he buried?)
I asked him with a head tilted in an implicit sense. But Dietrich didn't answer.
"It looks like a chick."
I just laugh at the sounds I make.
However, I feel better when I have achieved the desired purpose of meeting Dietrich.
When I walked well in Dietrich's arms, he stopped.
"Come down now."
"Ppa!"
Was it okay?
However, I haven't been close yet, but we have had too much skinship.
Dietrich put me on the floor without hesitation.
I was almost thrown like a booty so I could only smirk.
'I guess I'm not cute at all.'
In the novel, Anissa was described as a great beauty, so I was hoping that I would be a cute baby to some extent.
Even though the baby was ugly, they was usually cute.
'Then I have never seen my face.'
I've never left the room, so I've never looked in the mirror.
Suddenly, I am curious about my appearance.
I remembered the part depicted in the novel, but it would be completely different from seeing it myself.
For example, I never imagined that Dietrich's beauty would be that much.
In the novel, he is only described as 'a handsome man who was even admired by women from the Euclid family who were his enemies because of his appearance'.
"I'm going."
While I was thinking differently, Dietrich started to move away from me.
"Pa" (Wait!)
I hurriedly followed Dietrich.
'Why is he so fast?'
Fold the ground and step on it.
His legs were very long, but still a kid, but Dietrich was too fast.
I don't think I can catch up with him, even as he crawls away.
'Oh, no!
What a chance to catch!'
"Kyaakkk!!!"
But Dietrich couldn't be missed like this.
I believed in pajamas covering my feet and started to speed up.
Huftt~
Then I went too fast and couldn't see the piece of glass in my hand.
'No.'
Even though it's only a small piece with the size of an adult thumb, it's almost the size of my palm.
The pain beyond imagination, I couldn't scream and stopped.
"Heuu…."
Apparently, I was going without looking back but Dietrich looked at me.
"Huaaaa."
The villain brother, who has no blood or tears, knows that the baby is his sister.
'This bad guy!'
Dietrich was just staring at me.
"Huaaaa."
Don't think I'm crying because there's a glass in my palm.
The cries of children cannot be controlled at will, but rather are physiological reactions.
I was in danger.
My screaming scream was an act of asking for help.
No matter how long the memory of a past life was, this body was a baby, and then burst into tears because the blood flowed from the palm of the hand and the immeasurable pain that accompanied it.
It was then.
Dietrich's gray aura began to change little by little.
It wasn't as red as it was like Derreck LaGrange's aura, but it was slowly reddish anyway.
'Ow. You must be angry!'
If my memories are correct, the red aura was never a good feeling.
That was an aura of anger even if you didn't think about it.
"Hey."
I gathered all the patience in my body and showed my superhuman powers.
It's hard for even adults to endure crying that has already burst.
But I did it.
Otherwise, Dietrich will bury me next to Yuric.
Yuric was an ability to deal with the Shadow Demon to some extent, but I wasn't.
'I have no strength.'
That was the only lesson I learned in my previous life.
When a helpless man rebels, he only gets beaten.
"….Why don't you cry?"
Even an injured baby will stop crying after looking at Dietrich's mysterious appearance.
He stood watching me who never made a noise despite tears falling from my large eyes while sitting on the floor and bleeding.
'Oh, you can't cry!'
When you cry, you die.
I clenched my own lips and looked at him.
The dark eyes that seem to eat the sun see through me.
I was afraid Dietrich would recognize the soul of an adult in me.
Was it time for eternity to pass?
After a very long time stopped, time returned to me.
"You're going to die anyway."
"…Euuu."
"Isn't it better to die quickly?"
Strangely what you said to me sounds like personal help.
So even though I was told to die soon, I didn't feel bad.
He spread my bloody hand and carefully pulled out a piece of glass.
I closed my eyes in anticipation that Dietrich would get rid the glass from me, no matter whether I feel sick or not.
However, he pulled the glass out with a very careful touch and even wiped my teary eyes with his other hand.
The action is so sweeter than I thought so I feel strange.
It was hard to believe that he was a child who would become a villain in the future.
"You are just a baby."
