The Baby Fairy Is A Villain [EN]: Chapter 72

“She’s so beautiful, my daughter……”

But Chesha was just as surprised.

It was the first time she had seen the men of the Vasilios family dressed properly in formal attire for a banquet.

They already possessed striking good looks, and now that they were perfectly dressed, they were truly radiant.

The formal attire was a combination of Ishuel’s meticulous design and Mia’s refined sense and skill.

Kieren exuded a sophisticated yet elegant aura, Belzeon wore a neat suit with subtle embellishments, Karha sported a somewhat bold color, and Ishuel was the most flamboyant.

They all revealed their unique characteristics, but the colors and designs were consistent, giving a sense of unity as members of Vasilios.

‘They look even more handsome when gathered together.’

Even Chesha, who had high standards for appearance, was impressed by their stunning looks.

At this point, Chesha couldn’t help but wonder what she looked like.

“Does Chesha want to see herself in the mirror too?”

Kieren approached quickly, noticing her curiosity, and picked Chesha up.

The moment he stood next to Chesha in front of the mirror.

Chesha’s eyes widened, and her lips parted without her realizing it.

The baby, wearing a fluffy white dress with lots of frills and a lace bonnet with a black ribbon on her head, was so cute and pretty that she couldn’t help but gasp.

Kieren chuckled softly and leaned his head towards Chesha.

“You think you’re cute too, don’t you, Chesha?”

Chesha nodded her head eagerly.

The boys also came running and surrounded Chesha.

Looking at all the members of the Vasilios family in the mirror, she couldn’t help but feel proud.

‘These people are my family!’

Chesha raised her chin for no reason.

And she wore a sly smile.

This was more than enough.

At today’s banquet.

Chesha was going to make sure to identify the guys who had taken the Hata’s hat that the Vasilios family should have received.

Of course, it wouldn’t end with just identification, and the next step would be taken as well.

It was important to remember both favors and grudges for a long, long time.

Chesha thought, sharpening her knife in her heart.

‘Let’s start by identifying who you are.’

***

The Duke of Ivroyel’s banquet was renowned in society.

It was because it provided unique attractions every time.

In particular, taking advantage of the Ivroyel family’s reputation for magic, the magicians sponsored by the Duke often showcased amazing sights with illusion magic.

The nobles attending were all looking forward to this banquet.

In addition, the Duke invited the most famous opera singer in the empire for the banquet.

He contracted an entire vineyard of expensive Saseidos wine and brought it in.

Rumor had it that he decorated the Duke’s residence by pouring an enormous amount of fresh flowers into it.

And those rumors were all true.

“Haha!”

Serea burst into a hearty laugh.

Dressed in a well-fitting pants suit that accentuated her tall height, she looked around her Duke’s residence with a proud look.

The theme of this banquet was the Fairy Forest.

To commemorate the ‘Fairy Queen’s Crown,’ a gift to be presented at the Minor Saints Prayer Meeting, the banquet was decorated with the theme of a forest where fairies live.

As it was an expression of the place where the mythical fairies lived, the Duke’s residence was transformed into a dreamy forest.

Hundreds of lanterns decorated with flowers and leaves twinkled like stars scattered in the night sky in the garden, and the entrance to the mansion was enchanted to look like a hole in a giant old tree.

The banquet hall was also decorated with various kinds of flowers and plants.

The vine-covered walls with lanterns were Serea’s masterpiece.

The servants attending were all dressed in airy clothes that gave a fairy-like feel, in keeping with the theme.

They were also decorated with flowers, so the banquet hall was filled with a truly refreshing scent as if entering a forest.

“This banquet is truly amazing, Your Excellency!”

“It’s so touching. I never thought I’d see a banquet like this in my life……”

Those gathered around Serea praised her in unison.

Serea accepted their admiration as a matter of course, without showing any particular smugness.

How much money had she spent on this banquet?

She deserved to receive this much admiration.

This was a banquet that went beyond perfection.

But it was not yet complete.

Because the best attraction Serea had prepared had not yet arrived.

‘When are they coming?’

It was the Vasilios family.

A Count family that had been isolated in the Black Forest of the East and had not emerged until now.

The news that they would be making their social debut at the Duke of Ivroyel’s banquet caused a stir in the capital’s social circles.

This was partly because the Vasilios family had recently been causing a series of interesting incidents.

But more than anything else, it was because the beauty of the Count of Vasilios, who had briefly come to the capital and showed his face more than a decade ago, was still talked about like a legend in society.

He had been famous for his handsome looks for a long time, so everyone wanted to see the Count of Vasilios with their own eyes, even out of curiosity.

It was even known that not only the Count of Vasilios but also his sons and the daughter he had newly adopted would be brought to this banquet.

It was a banquet that those interested in society should never miss.

The Duke of Ivroyel’s banquet, which was already sky-high in popularity.

This time, it was so high that it tore the sky apart.

Everyone was clamoring to get an invitation.

For a while, the Duke’s family was flooded with bribes asking for invitations to the banquet, and even the imperial family subtly expressed their intention to attend.

Thus, the best banquet of the year was born.

This was also what Kieren wanted.

His intention was to create an opportunity to be noticed at once, make a mark on the capital’s nobles, and then expand his power in earnest.

He was a man of good business sense from the start.

If he was pushed just once, he would move forward quickly like a ship with sails in a tailwind.

‘Later, he’ll probably overtake me too.’

Serea smiled, recalling the disciple who had always surpassed his teacher.

Just in time, they were whispering about the Vasilios family next to her.

“Come to think of it, the Count of Vasilios hasn’t arrived yet, has he?”

“No. I’m curious……”

“Ah, they ordered clothes from the same clothing store as my family. I went to pick up the clothes and saw them for a moment, well….”

The man shrugged and said.

“It seems they will come dressed appropriately.”

‘They will come dressed appropriately.’

It was a subtle remark with hidden disregard and a hint of scrutiny.

Serea chuckled inwardly.

‘There’s no way they’ll come dressed plainly.’

The third son of that family likes to dress up so much.

The boy who had been diligently coming to the Duke’s residence to learn magic came to mind.

He came with a serious face, listened to the class more diligently than anyone else, and greedily acquired knowledge.

With talent and effort combined, his skills were improving at a frighteningly fast pace.

He had mastered all the basic magic in just a few days.

Originally, he was a boy who was indifferent even when Serea begged him to learn magic.

When she asked him about his sudden change of heart, Ishuel answered haughtily.

“If I’m going to be a Vasilios, I’ll be in trouble if I can’t protect even one of my siblings, right?”

Kieren and Ishuel seemed to have become quite fond of their adopted sibling.

Serea was a little worried.

The Vasilios’ unique, gloomy obsession seemed to be slowly heading towards the young baby.

They didn’t seem to know it, but the men of the Vasilios family would dig into something like crazy once they were hooked.

Kieren was obsessed with the dead Countess.

Belzeon was obsessed with the honor and continuation of the Vasilios family.

Karha was obsessed with swordsmanship, and Ishuel was obsessed with clothes and appearance.

But their interest was slowly turning towards the adopted child.

Serea could tell how annoying and bothersome it was for a Vasilios to be obsessed with someone.

That was a really difficult thing.

Because…….

‘I have to raise her to be a great magician!’

Serea also had a great interest in the youngest daughter of the Vasilios family.
