The Precious Sister of The Villainous Grand Duke

16  Chapter 16

It was a very dark night as the moon didn't rise.

Awakening from a shallow sleep, Dietrich reached out and grabbed the shadow. A dagger that flies at his neck stops in the air.

"Ughhh!"

The dagger quickly changed direction and was stabbed in the direction it came from.

'You're bothering me so I can't sleep.'

Apart from the expulsion of Marilyn who turned out to be a follower of Liatriz, Dietrich's life was constantly being directed to where information was leaked. He was too young to be a candidate.

If Camille is still alive he will certainly help to protect Dietrich at all costs, but it is very difficult to protect a child without a guardian.

"Hahh….."

Dietrich removed his secret guests, who had soaked in the darkness without moonlight.

A baby asleep next to him.  She doesn't even know the assassin came and sleep well.

Yellow lantern light reflected on Anissa's thick eyelashes.

"What the."

It seemed to Dietrich that Anissa couldn't go back to her room and fell asleep after pursuing him all day to searching for a maid named Marilyn.

'She won't even know it's a spy.'

She didn't like Baal which he had placed in place of Marilyn. Dietrich remembered the demon who shook his toy even though the baby refused.

The demon king Baal is better than Marilyn who is only a human maid and Baal excels in everything.  Dietrich couldn't understand the reason Anissa didn't like Baal.

"Why do you like to sleep here?"

Anissa often fell asleep by his side or even came in the middle of the night to dig into the blanket like a puppy.  It was a baby, so Dietrich often is woken up because her body had a lot of heat and the blanket was hot.

Upset because his sleep was disturbed, Dietrich rubbed his neck and walked out into the corridor.

'Go away.'

'I won't, I want to be with you.'

So, he half giving up now.  No matter how cold he is, Anissa never backs down.  Her face was always shining and sparkling when she reached him again.

'It's because I have no ability.'

The children of Lagrange, who are not born with excellent ability are removed before they reach adulthood. If there are children who are still alive among them, it's only children who are protected by other candidates such as Anissa.

Surely no one had told Anissa about the current situation because she sticks to Dietrich since she first met him.

'Oppa, I like you.'

The red circle that appeared on Anissa's little cheek every time she laughed came to mind.

Of course, Dietrich didn't protect her for a simple reason like 'Anissa was my younger sister'.

This is because he has found out about the final gateway to the successor test.

"…..The sacrifice of the most precious thing."

Asmodeus, the demon who defends the family itself, wanted the devil-like human being who had no interest other than power and strength as the Grand duke.

If you wanted to be the Grand Duke, you have to give all the last parts of your heart that make people be human.

Such as Derreck Lagrange who sacrificed his tamed demon, and there were also others who sacrificed his lovers, friends, and even family members.  They poured everything into the mouth of Asmodeus to become the Grand Duke.

"It's difficult."

In other words, it was a difficult gateway for Dietrich. Even though he has lived for seven years, he doesn't have anything 'precious'.

The boy's world was full of achromatic colors. No one or any object caught his eye with bright light.

Being chosen by Baal, the demon's king made him the strongest heir of the Grand Duke of LaGrange.

"What happens if there is nothing precious?"

"You're going to be like Roderick LaGrange. He was a far better candidate than Derreck LaGrange, but in the end, he couldn't get through to the gates because he couldn't find something enough to sacrifice."

A shadow whispers to Dietrich's question. Lagrangian people don't believe in any quality without evidence. He needed something to sacrifice to prove himself.

'Then you caught my eye.'

Dietrich looked down at Anissa, who fell asleep with her dull eyes.

"She appeared at the right time. Your sister."

'Why do you have to tell me that you were born.'

He looked around at the devil who was sticking out the face in the shadow.

"Your majesty, so you must cherish her."

"….. do you really think you can deceive Derreck Lagrange's eyes with this?"

"Not only Derreck but also Demon Asmodus, who will host the gateway, will be deceived. Humans tend to treat their families as something important. They will take her for granted."

The boy nodded slightly by the constant whisper of the devil. If the family were important, the name of Lagrange would have been cut off, It was an unbelievable word.

"But…."

"But?"

Dietrich urged Baal for the blur words. The devil hesitated unsteadily and rubbed a finger that wasn't attached properly.

"You shouldn't really value it, Your majesty."

"What the hell?"

Dietrich laughed coldly.  No matter what, he couldn't have valued a useless child.

He was born to become the Grand Duke, and as soon as he was able to deal with the shadows, he was nominated for a successor candidate. If he can't be the Grand Duke, his soul will be chewed and swallowed by Asmodeus.

"I can't value this child more than my comfort."

Baal opened his red mouth as if agreed with Dietrich.

"Poor princess."

From the start, Dietrich planned to make Anissa a sacrificed so that he could become the Grand Duke. The boy caressed Anissa's soft hair, and when he thought that there would come a day when Anissa understood this scared him.

At that moment, Dietrich's heart was tingling with pain that he never felt before since he was born. His heart feels very painful like being stabbed.

'… is it poison?'

He is a boy who is familiar with pain, so he ignores it.

***

Unlike the stinky smell and appearance, Baal was a pretty friendly nanny.

"Baa."

"Here it is. Princess."

I squeezed the bottle Baal gave me and sucked it once and returned it to Baal.

'Uh. Strawberry flavor!'

Now Lancel never gave me a bottle and just threw it in the hallway, then Baal made this offer when saw this milk.

'Can I change it to a different taste?'

Then I changed the white milk that I had always eaten into a sweet chocolate flavor.

'I only held it in my hand, but the taste changed!'

Is there another nanny with such convenient and delicious features like this? I decided to accept Baal, who was constantly reluctant that day, as my nanny.

"Do you like it, princess?"

"Yeah. By the way baa."

"Yeah."

"I'm not a plincess."

Well, even though Euclid is also a Duke. I wasn't even Lagrange's daughter.

Baal laughs at me.

"Young lady is a princess."

Baal had no human eyes and nose, but it had a red mouth. The face that looked like someone shed blood in the black mud initially seemed a little disgusting, I keep looking and I feel it cute somewhere.

"My Majesty is your brother young lady, so you're a princess."

"Is Detteli is a king?"

"He is the Great Demon who rules over the Demon King, I am."

"Ayaight. So the mastel you chose is Detteli Langgage." [Alright, so the master you chose is Dietrich Lagrange]

'Dietrich is now just a child about seven years old, what did Baal see so he chose Dietrich?'

I nodded a little to Baal's answer.

"So like that. Baal is very fond of Detteli."

"Well. I don't really like him."

Dirty Baal interrupts my words while smiling broadly. It pulled out a pile of books from the air and spread it out in front of me.

"Wat it this?" [What it this?]

"A maid named Marilyn reads your book well, right?"

"Yap."

"Your Majesty said to do all the maid's work."

Baal said so, it lifted me and miracelly I sat on its lap.

'No, this is on the knee.'

I don't know if I'm sitting on Baal's thighs or knees. Baal was much softer than I thought.

'Interesting. It's softer than it looks.'

Baal had a similar feel to marshmallows. I was curious and pressed here and there, but Baal stopped me.

"....ah, don't touch that side."

"Hm? Why?"

"That's genital."

'Ugh.'

I got upset by Baal's polite response.

'No, no, does the devil have genitals?'

Does the demon have children…?

If you look at Baal who takes good care of me, there was a possibility. Baal was a demon who can be a good father.

"Sow, sowly." [Sorry]

"Fine. What book do you want to read first?"

Baal pointed to a book floating in the air with no fingers without a disgraceful look.

These are the books titled Cinderella, Snow White, and The Rabbit in The Moon.

'Apparently, there is a book I know in this world.'

I already knew Cinderella and Snow White, so I chose a baby rabbit.

"This."

"Oh, this is my favorite book."

Baal acted like it was going to read me a book when said that, but when there was a knock on the door Baal ran off to the window without my permission.

"Baa."

"Oh, I'm a little troubled as a demon of I show this to other people."

Because it's a demon, It disappears without even making footsteps.

'It will be pretty scary at night.'

"Young lady, are you inside?"

"…..ah melilin!"

I immediately answered when I heard her warm voice. Soon the door opens and Marilyn comes in.

"Young lady, it's been a long time."

I never met Marilyn after Dietrich kicked her out of the Dahlia Palace.

'But do you actually look like that?'
