10 Chapter 10
No, why do I keep farting every time I push myself!
'You didn't hear it. Please, I really hope you didn't hear it.'
I held my hands and prayed.
'I'm not sure whether God exists, but if it does, please save this baby!'
"…..Ha."
I covered my bright red face with both hands. It was obvious from my reaction that I really didn't want the children around me to have heard too much.
"Pa…"
My face felt hot against my hands. I attempted to hide my face, but it was futile because my face was bigger than my hands so I couldn't hide behind my hands.
'Then I will only cover my eyes.'
If I can't see them, then they can't see me either.
Once my eyes closed behind the palm of my hands, darkness akin to the night sky invaded my sense of sight.
'As I don't see them, I feel comfortable!'
I knew this logic was incorrect, but I wanted to turn away from reality by hypnotizing myself to believe I had succeeded in turning away by closing my eyes, and pressed the palms of my small hands against them.
"What's your sister doing?"
Yuric ridiculed.
"What are you doing?"
Dietrich's voice is heard right after. It's hard to tell whether they're smiling or sighing.
"Wake up."
He came over to me. He put his hand under my arm and lifted me up just like he had done before.
'This child is quite strong.'
It doesn't seem tiring to lift me up, but then again, Lancel never did say that I was heavy.
Dietrich soon reached out to my hands and began to remove it from my face.
"Pa?" (What are you doing?)
His eyes glance at the pink ear I was wearing today.
'I'm embarrassed!'
The back of my neck felt heated from the embarrassment. Dietrich eyes skim over clothes carefully and then mumbles quietly to himself.
"It doesn't smell."
"Pa?"
"... Should I change her diapers?"
'Urgh!'
I inhale in shock after hearing the child talk to himself about the problem. Lancel was used to changing diapers, but Dietrich was very reluctant.
'Besides, I can't change my diapers normally!'
If my diaper was dirty, I would have burned all my clothes.
No, I'm glad I can't burn clothes. I would have otherwise burned myself too.
'If you look at what you did to Yuric…'
Besides, it's not like it needs to be replaced every time you fart. My diaper was fluffy with the condition that Lancel had changed before.
I struggled to get out of Dietrich's hold but he tightened the hand holding me so I wouldn't escape.
"Pa?"
"!" (Don't want to!)
"No?"
Dietrich understood what I meant. I nodded loudly at his question.
"It would smell bad."
"Pa, Pa! (Oh, no!)
Dietrich suddenly smirked as he began sniffing me, my body began burning with shame. I don't think I have to worry anymore about whether he will hurt me. I'd die of shame before that even happens.
'I brought milk to give you guys!'
You look like an ungrateful brother.
I was trying to take care of you because you can't, but how can you boldly insult me like that, especially when you haven't even thanked me yet.
"What is in that bag?"
Dietrich shook me as if he had just found my bag. The main bag shook on my back, and the bottle inside made a splash.
"Another milk again?"
Dietrich asked as if he had waited, but I was so resentful that I no longer wanted to hand over milk.
"For me?"
"Ba." (no.)
I answered softly and shook my head. Dietrich found this funny, to the extent that he squeaked like a chick. He knew my whims.
"Didn't you come out to give me milk?"
"Pa!" (no!)
'You don't!'
Is it fun? bad guy.
Babies can farts too, so just humiliate them. In fact, Dietrich didn't make fun of me, but I was ashamed and grumpy.
When I rolled my feet in the air, Dietrich stared at me with his insensitive eyes.
'Why are you looking like that?'
Dietrich's aura color was also blurry, but he always squared his expression to imitate that of a doll, so he was difficult to read.
"He said you gave him cookies?"
However, I had a strange feeling that he was somehow grumpy.
'Isn't it going to be a pity that I only gave Yuric cookies?'
I think it's only for me, I assumed Dietrich was frowning and hurriedly put my hand in the bag and found the cookie. However, only the crumbs of the cookie are touched.
'Huft. There is nothing.'
I think I ate the last cookie to tell Yuric and confirm that it wasn't poisonous.
I pursued my embarrassed lips, whipping out a baby bottle from my bag, and nothing else.
Then Dietrich, who had been waiting for a long time, tilts his head and urges me.
'Don't look so cute!'
"Why?"
"Pa?"
"You don't have a cookie?"
Hearing Dietrich's question, I rolled my eyes, looked closely at his teeth.
'… I can't help it.'
I eventually took out my gold bottle instead of a cookie. It would be difficult if Dietrich had a bad feeling for me.
"Pa." (receive it.)
I threw the milk, I didn't want to give it to him. Dietrich just frowned, he wasn't interested in receiving it and instead looked at me.
'Didn't you ask me before?'
I wave my hands back and forth, holding the bottle to get it.
"Pappa!" (Get it quickly!)
I do this, then go back and forth.
I was disturbed by Dietrich's changing attitude. That's why I put too much strength in my hands than I intended.
"Pa!"
'Oh, no!'
The palms seemed slippery when they sweated and got wet. Thanks to this, the bottle that flew out of my hand hit Dietrich's cheek and fell.
Buagh!
'Fyuhh.'
Fortunately, it didn't hit hard, but the bottle cap was open.
'No, is that bigger?'
Byurr. With a cool sound, white milk wetted Dietrich's face first, then began to drip on his body.
"Pa…."
I struggled for a moment to move my stiff body. I have to run!
'If you do this, you die.'
Dietrich will kill me.
It was Dietrich who suffered while holding me, but I really wanted to burst into tears.
'This idiot, the effort installed to try milk hit my back like this!'
If I'm just lying on the cradle and staring at the mobile, I might have lived a little longer.
Tears cover up. I haven't visited Lagrange province yet but I haven't seen the castle properly too.
"Pa, pppa." (Goodbye world.)
'Shall I pretend to be sick?'
I was afraid that Dietrich would be mad at me, so I started to make the sound of suffering.
"Uhukk. Uhukk."
"..."
"Pa, uhukk!" (Uhh, it's hurts.)
Dietrich put me quietly on the floor, I pretended to be sick and spilled a dry cough. When his vision changed, his wet sleeves caught his attention.
Milk dripping on his fingertips falls pretty and rolls the floor.
"Ha."
When Dietrich was annoyed, I raised my arms and wrapped my head. I didn't dare to check the aura. It must be a bloody red aura.
'Am I going to be like the kids who tried to kill me last time? Will I be eaten by the shadows?'
I was terrified and trembling.
'Oh, please be born to a harmonious family in the next life!"
It's a wish of a lifetime. Dietrich's gaze feels warm when looking at my trembling head. However, nothing happened over time.
'Huh? Why are you still?'
I can't feel the impact of getting hit in the head or the power of the shadow around my ankle. Instead of eating me in the shadows, Dietrich didn't have a single hand on me.
I lifted my head and wiped the milk off his neck with a handkerchief that I always carry.
'It's clean by righteousness.'
"Pa?" (Don't you kill?)
"You, really."
Dietrich opens his mouth slowly towards me, who is smiling at his doubt. My voice was very low.
'It would be great if I could grow up quickly.'
I start hearing sounds of a horse ringing in a cave. I diverted focus of my ears back on to the boy's words, as he spoke slowly.
"When something like this happens, what needs to be done is say I'm sorry."
When Dietrich admonished me, I gained enlightenment and hit the wall of my hand.
"Ppa!" (Aha!)
"Sorry?"
No, I'm not saying that, I don't understand why this is happening.
Dietrich nodded as if he thought I had apologized.
"Well, it's done. You didn't do it on purpose."
I nodded with confidence in what Dietrich added.
"Pa." (You're right)
'Hey, I'm not scared.'
At least he wasn't as scary as I thought because he didn't take my life, which could have been taken as a result of his own mistake.
My villainous brother isn't as villainous as I thought.
I decided to treat Dietrich a little more comfortably. Of course, it probably was a wrong decision that I might come to regret shortly thereafter.
