The Baby Isn’t Yours

Chapter 83:

[Huh?]

Belgians brow furrowed as he reached into the darkness.

[Nothing? Its weird.]

The unstoppable hand of the old man tore a hole in the shadows chest. The hazy darkness dissipated.

Of course it was empty inside.

[Hmm I really felt a strange aura.]

Belgian rubbed his chin and stared at the shadow.

However, there is no such thing as an exuberant sense of fear of the shadow of the lower class.

What are you doing now?

[No, I mean, I feel a bit awkward Or not.]

He gently waved his hand and moved his creaky body to relax. With an old body that had exceeded seven decades in life, the movement of loosening the neck and twisting the chin was natural.

No matter how many demons he had, although the skin clearly belonged to his father, Bufords gaze on him was cold.

Long ago, the old King starved his mother and tried to forcefully take her maid in front of the queens dying body

For Buford, his father was dead.

[First Ill call ten more, youll need them, but more will be difficult.]

Hearing Belgians words, Buford looked at Lirik waiting behind him.

Lirik. What about the army?

Now we have only filled five hundred. Oh, what about the people youve gathered this time around?

I was weak. The spear that the Fairy King was holding immediately came out.

Well, Ill have to make him stronger. King Angelo is in the conference room right now, so we just need to ask him for backup.

They left the room and made their way to the west office annex. Both the first floor and basement of the annex were Liriks laboratory, while the upper floors housed the administrations offices and conference rooms.

On the way, the palace was empty.

Not even a guard stood in the way of the three.

The palace itself seemed to give way to them.

The only place to work in this eerily quiet castle was the office pavilion. All the nobles who run the administration gathered there.

All of Akans top ministers were but puppets of Buford. They worked to the best of their ability even without kings and princes. All because Lirik had worked hard for years to poison them and their families.

The effect lasted only one night. In the morning they had to return to the castle again for medicines.

A bitter drug was prepared from the blood of a demon. If they didnt take drugs to fight their addiction, they went crazy and hurt their families.

Several terrible nights have passed because of the rebellious nobles.

Only then did they begin to accept their princes nightmares.

So Buford poisoned the prime minister, the magician, and the administrative bureaucrats, one by one, to rule in his power.

Dont hesitate, dont ask, dont think. If you adapt, it will be easier than you think.

The resistance was pointless.

As long as they obeyed the princes words, they were even more secure.

I will take His Majesty to the dungeon. Your Highness, could you please enter the conference room? Should I call the officers?

Okay, Damon should be there by now.

Buford waved his hand as if in annoyance and went up to the third floor. About twenty nobles gathered in the conference room immediately stood up to greet him.

Damon, who was waiting for him, clung to him too.

Buford, smiling languidly, sat down in the Kings seat and surveyed the crowd.

Is everything working properly?

We are fine, so Your Highness has nothing to worry about.

Good.

Did your visit go well?

At the question, Buford thought, rubbing his chin.

Kalia Tacskate.

The woman who continued to spin strangely in his thoughts.

Bufords eyes narrowed and floated through the air. His fingertips tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the throne.

She was the strongest person he knew.

For Buford, who was weak enough to suffer hallucinations from breathing alone,strength was a charm that couldnt help but be enchanted. That alone was interesting enough, but the fact that there was even an unknown connection to the fairy lineage

Do you have a part of them, just like me?

If not, what was their relationship like? Buford could not contain his curiosity.

He wanted to satisfy this curiosity by taking a good look at the face and eyes hidden under that cascan military cap.

He was curious. So curious that he wanted to get her by all means.

Tuk, tuk, tuk.

Tapping his finger, he turned and looked at one of the uniformed administrative officials.

The imperial trade meeting will be held in three months.

To be precise, there are two months and 21 days left.

Will it be difficult for my home country to participate?

If you want, I will contact the host country.

Great, Buford nodded in satisfaction and stood up. Then lets go to thesmall conference room.

Rohas was, of course, the host country of the trade agreement.

Damon watched Bufords back as he got up and walked into the small meeting room.

Kalia put Sasha, whom she had fed formula, onto the bed. Due to Sashas constant refusal to breastfeed, he was now fully fed with Allens formula.

However, Kalia enjoyed holding the bottle and feeding the baby herself. It was a soothing sight as the child licked his lips, eating enough to rid himself of all the worries of the world.

However.

Why do I keep thinking about Simon?

She watched Sasha play to Simons mobile and finally got up from her seat.

Hmm.

Kalia paced back and forth in confused thoughts, and soon sat down next to Sasha again.

No, is that really how I feel? She muttered in a restless voice, burying her face in the childs hands, which smelled of milk.

Me and Simon? Simon and me, is it possible that we have feelings for each other?

There was no doubt about Simons openly affectionate attitude, but the problem lay in his own heart. It was hard to believe that Simons heart was beating for her. How difficult it must have been to avoid him for the past two days. But it was cowardice to keep running.

Knowing this, Kalia needed time to sort out her emotions.

When she thought of him, her thoughts were confused, but her emotions were simple.

Why am I avoiding Simon? Maybe I dont like what he did? No, thats definitely not the case. Then what is this feeling?

She kept thinking and thinking when she saw Sasha playing under the mobile.

Then, at some point, she realized that she could no longer contain herself.

Isnt it better to look for an answer than to constantly stumble over something like that? Because there are things that must be met face to face in order to know.

In that case, from now on, she shouldnt avoid Simon. Because it was polite to honestly answer his sincere feelings.

As Kalia gathered her thoughts and prepared herself, she heard a knock on the door.

This is Hemmie, may I come in now, Miss Kalia?

Hearing Kalia tell her to come in, Hemmie walked in with a basket of cloth diapers.

I brought washed diapers and snacks. Do you need something else?

Today Kalia looked after Sasha. It was a position won by beating Nanny, Hemmie, Allen and Simon.

Why was everyone upset that they couldnt stay up all night? The competition was fierce.

Its okay, Hemmie. Now go get some rest. You couldnt sleep last night with your baby.

But I like it. Can you really sleep next to Sasha? Allen said its best not to overexert yourself just yet.

Kalia laughed at Hemmies excited words.

I think Allens drug made me stronger than before the baby was born. It seems that it can even revive the dead.

There was even a medicine said to be made from crucian carp, a medicine made by mixing wild pepper root and pumpkin, and a pill said to reduce swelling. Kalia was very surprised where they got all this from.

What surprised her more was that she felt an improvement in her stamina.

The edema that appeared there became less and less every day.

Now, I think its only a matter of time before I get back to my pre-pregnancy weight.

Kalia rubbed her puffy cheek, feeling a little sorry. Unlike before, she really liked this cute look, but it seemed to pass quickly.

In that case, I guess now I can start to slowly restore my stamina.

Yes, until we get back to the capital somehow

It was natural that a commotion would be created for some time. She would have to deal with the work behind her, and there was a lot at stake.

Meanwhile, Sasha couldnt be ignored, so she would have to replenish her stamina.

And most importantly.

Kalia took Sashas hand and looked at Hemmie, who was playing with him.

Over the past 10 months, Hemmie has become an indispensable person for her.

Hemmie.

Yes?

She raised her head to the silent call.

The round Hemmies cheek, who was still young, attracted the attention of Kalia. Kalia, who gently clasped her cheeks with her palms, conveyed her sincerity to her as if in a whisper.

Im always grateful to you.

Thats it again.

Her face turned red from a sudden heart attack, and eyes widened.

Kalia did this from time to time.

Thankfully, Allen didnt have much physical contact, but she especially liked Hemmie.

Every time this happened, Hemmie felt happy and embarrassed, and it seemed like she had become a special person for Kalia, so her heart beat faster at such moments. After all, Kalia charmed people in many ways.

Oh no, I said it again, what have I done.

Seeing the embarrassed Hemmie, Kalia smiled slightly shyly.

However, she couldnt help but want to talk about her true feelings.

She saw many deaths from a young age.

Death meant the end of everything.

Everything must be done while you are alive, while life goes on.

You never know when or where the end will come, so its always right to do your best in the life youre living right now. If you live like this, then at the last moment, when death comes, there will be regret about wanting to live a little longer, but there will be no regret that invaded your heart.

Thats why Kalia thought that when she wanted to express her sincerity, she shouldnt hesitate.

For the current Hemmie, and for Simon too.
