The Baby Fairy Is A Villain [EN]: Chapter 49

Chesha pondered this, then shook her head.

She would be living a life separate from the Basilian family from now on.

Yet, she was already trying to interfere again.

“There’s no need to worry about the Black Forest. Once it’s cleared, it stays quiet for a while.”

Kieren had cleared the Black Forest once before coming to the capital this time.

The Count had that much responsibility, so he told her not to worry, but then he frowned slightly.

Belzeon muttered under his breath.

“I’ve been saying all sorts of things without realizing it. You wouldn’t even understand….”

Come to think of it, the story about the demon sword wasn’t something to tell a baby either.

Belzeon got up from the chair and leaned the sword against the head of the bed.

“Let’s go to sleep.”

There was only one bed.

Belzeon lay down on the small bed, sharing a pillow with her.

Hata slyly settled between Belzeon and Chesha.

He seemed jealous of them being close.

Hata curled up like a real puppy and yawned, mouth wide open.

“We’re leaving at dawn tomorrow, so go to bed early.”

Belzeon, who had turned to face Chesha, was about to tell her the plan when he muttered to himself.

“…Do babies usually sleep early?”

Chesha didn’t really know either, so she just blinked her eyes.

Belzeon soon pulled the blanket up and covered Chesha completely.

Chesha blinked, pretending to be sleepy.

Then, she pretended to fall asleep.

As she made even breathing sounds, she heard a small whisper.

“Good night.”

There was a rustling sound of the blanket being clutched.

After saying good night, Belzeon didn’t seem to be able to fall asleep.

She could feel his gaze on her face.

The gaze lasted for a long time.

After a while, Belzeon murmured in an even smaller voice.

“…I really wish you were my sister.”

Chesha waited for the next words.

But there was nothing more.

When she opened her eyes slightly, she saw the boy fast asleep.

He seemed to have tried hard not to let his guard down, but eventually, he couldn’t overcome his fatigue and fell asleep.

This must be the first time something like this has happened in Belzeon’s life, so it was only natural.

Chesha quietly watched Belzeon sleeping.

Just as Belzeon had watched her.

Today, he blew up the Basilian mansion and ran away with Chesha to escape Kieren’s pursuit.

He had committed a huge incident.

He had committed a daring act that even adults wouldn’t dare to do.

But his face, fast asleep, was still that of a young boy.

As she quietly watched him sleeping as if he had collapsed from exhaustion, the thought that Belzeon was pitiful crossed her mind for a moment.

‘Is it because he took care of me while pretending not to?’

Chesha was also subtly concerned about Belzeon.

Even if she left, she knew that Belzeon would have to continue living as a Basilian, even more so.

‘I hope Kieren doesn’t scold him too much.’

As she was worrying, Hata opened his closed eyes.

The jealous puppy narrowed his eyes and pretended to bark silently.

Chesha also laughed silently, following Hata.

It was when she carefully reached out and touched Hata.

“…!”

A purple circle was drawn on the ceiling above the bed where Belzeon and Chesha were lying.

Complex lines began to be drawn boldly inside the perfect circle without distortion.

Hata, surprised, shouted human words without realizing it.

“Hick, it’s a tracking magic circle…!”

Chesha frowned and stared at the magic circle.

Judging from the pure energy or the color of magic, it wasn’t Kieren’s magic.

‘But such an elaborate tracking magic.’

A magician with great skill and a clear purple magic power.

There was only one person who came to mind.

It was Duke Ivoroyel.

She was one of the most skilled magicians in the continent.

She was also the hero who led the Ivoroyel family to its most glorious moment.

She was capable enough to cast such magic.

‘But why Duke Ivoroyel?’

Could it be that she was casting magic at Kieren’s request?

It was impossible to know why a duchess would cast magic to find someone who ran away from someone else’s house.

In any case, it was a situation where she couldn’t get caught.

Since she had already run away from the Count’s family.

Chesha decided to just use her power without thinking about the aftermath.

‘I’ll have to show the Duchess what a fairy tastes like.’

Magicians have never faced the power of a fairy.

They are close to extinction and difficult to meet.

This was because fairies have no offensive tendencies and do not harm others.

Originally, fairies always used their power defensively.

But Chesha is different.

A being born with a twisted power from birth.

A fairy who wields an axe and grows man-eating flowers even distorted the reverse world in a bizarre shape.

Of course, she was also ruthless in attacking others.

“…….”

Chesha threw back the blanket and got out of bed.

First, she created a jasmine flower in her hand and placed it on Belzeon’s chest.

She had cast a light magic to induce sleep, so he would sleep soundly without waking up even if he heard some noise.

And immediately, she drew up her power.

Colorful flowers bloomed at Chesha’s feet.

Fluttering butterflies gathered in the air.

Chesha reached into the group of butterflies and took out her axe.

“Oops.”

Because it was the axe she used when she was Lichesia, it was too heavy for the baby Chesha.

She almost fell backward while holding the axe, but barely managed to regain her balance.

“Ugh…….”

With the help of the butterflies, she lifted the axe.

Holding the axe firmly, she glared at the magic circle drawn on the ceiling.

The moment the lines that had been drawn without hesitation completed the magic circle.

Chesha jumped up.

The butterflies and flowers gave Chesha wings.

Chesha flew lightly and struck the magic circle with her axe.

Clang!

The sound of magic breaking was loud.

The magic circle shattered into pieces.

Fragments of dazzling light brightly illuminated the surroundings.

The flowers and butterflies swallowed all traces of the broken magic to prevent the fragments from splashing on Belzeon.

Hata also jumped up and swallowed the magic fragments.

“Hee-yoo.”

Chesha, who had landed on the floor, put the axe back into the reverse world and took a breath.

For now, she had broken the tracking magic, but…….

‘At this rate, I’ll get caught soon.’

Chesha looked down at the sleeping Belzeon.

The boy had certainly made an effective plan.

But that was only a plan to stop the ‘Basilian family.’

He would never have guessed that Kieren would reach out to a third party, not his underworld subordinates, for help.

‘It’s something I didn’t expect either.’

I don’t know what he did, but he even moved Duke Ivoroyel to use magic.

If she took action in earnest, she would really be caught soon.

Hata came to Chesha’s side, jingling, and asked.

“Should there be another way?”

“Maybe…….”

“What if Hata goes to the Count’s mansion and sets it on fire again?”

“…….”

He seemed to want to try it himself because Belzeon’s scene of blowing up the bomb was impressive.

Chesha restrained Hata, telling him not to do that.

‘After all, the best thing to do is to bring in a third party as a shield.’

Someone Kieren can’t treat carelessly.

Someone who has a high position and power like Duke Ivoroyel, and also has strong power.

And someone who can protect Chesha and Belzeon…….

Chesha tapped her forehead with her hand.

A sigh burst out of her mouth.

“Heue…….”

There was one person who was perfectly suited for this situation.

It was someone who fit perfectly to the point where it couldn’t be more perfect.

But it was also someone who made her feel self-conscious just by thinking about them.

It was the Inquisitor of the Holy Empire of Hildeerde [A high-ranking official in the Holy Empire, responsible for investigating and suppressing heresy].

Hailon.
