Duke, Please Repent! chapter 158

33. The Duke and Zion Rivelon (4)

I was worried that I would have to wait endlessly for Bibi to wake up, but that ended in rain.

Serpens woke up with a whimper as if she was complaining of discomfort, terrified of putting Vivi on the seat next to the sofa she was sitting on.

'He was growing up really nicely.'

It looks like I'm putting it down somewhere

have never seen

Ugh..., ah?

After waking up, Bibi mumbled as if asking for a hug and stretched out her arms and found Serpens's face looking down at her and froze.

How cute is the way he blankly opens his mouth and rolls his blue eyes.

It is highly likely that the soul contained in it is Zion, and now is not the only place to confirm it.

Otherwise, they might have hugged and rubbed the cheeks right away.

"Zion Rivelon, right?"

Huh?! Uh-huh, woo-woong .

In response to Serpence's question, the baby, presumed to be Zion, flinched. In fact, it is like admitting that Zion is right.

Perhaps it was to make a fuss about it, he licked his mouth and pretended to be an ordinary baby.

But, maybe he couldn't make eye contact with Serpens, and he shook his head.

After turning and making eye contact with me, I couldn't convince myself at all because of the stiff expression on my face.

Huh, uh-!

When I woke up, I couldn't see anyone in my family, and the only people I saw around me were me and Serpens.

Whether he was the real Zion or a baby who knew nothing. It is a situation worthy of fear.

"If I had cried, I would have doubted that I was an ordinary baby "

I was sure of it as I swallowed it again.

At my murmuring, he realized his mistake and took a deep breath. frightened,

"Is that right?"

Seeing the baby unable to even make a crying sound and shedding tears, it seems that he has become an irreplaceable piece of garbage in the world.

My heart was so heavy and sad, I only laughed bitterly.

I, maybe...

Yes? Why?

All of a sudden, Serpens spoke to me. It was as if he had seen something monstrous.

It's nothing. I'm that, poem... no...

Just call me by my real name. It's confusing for nothing.

That , umm. I see.

He seemed a little hesitant, then nodded as if he couldn't be sharp.

nodded.

"Anyway, why me?"

I thought Seonwoo was intentionally creating a horror atmosphere, but I just... he didn't have much of a thought...

I didn't even give him time to judge the situation, and he wanted me to go through my identity verification with a person who had a dream and nightmare.

Who are you talking to now?

"Anyway, Zion is right.

It seems obvious, so what now?

When my eyes met, the baby trembled, not knowing whether to call it Vivi or Zion.

He was so frightened that he looked like he was going to run out of breath at any moment.

Three, Serpens!

Confused, she called out Serpens's name.

Serpens realized the meaning and placed a hand on Zion's forehead. city

On shook his head desperately as if trying to shake off his hand, but it was not enough.

A silvery light flowed into Zion. The breath that had been barely chugging quietly subsided as if it had ever been.

I didn't know you'd be so scared...

Even when I was with my family, I felt anxious, but except when I grabbed my hair, I was pretty calm.

As soon as there is no place to turn to, this dodge will be afraid.

"First of all, I think we should explain why Sunwoo entered that body."

"Ah that's right."

That way, it will be possible to argue about Serpence as well.

I am the messenger of the god Luxmea...

Still, a lot of the feeling of shriveling is gone because I've said it before.

all.

Previously, it felt like time and space were shrinking, but today it was only to the extent that my hands and feet were shrinking.

If you do this a few more times, you might be able to put an iron plate on your face and gossip around the neighborhood.

I know it's going to be hard to believe, but you've noticed that to some extent, too, right? All the time you've had since you became a member of the Pra Sidus family is gone and turned upside down.

I gave you, who was already dead, with divine power, and made you reborn, and made my soul dwell at an earlier point in time. It is absolutely impossible to perform such a miracle by magic. Zion is a man of this world, so you can do better than me. You know.

it n

I don't know if the conversation is being established properly or if I'm just talking to myself.

Raised and seated a 2-month-old baby... It's not like I'm lying down, what are you doing with this? Suddenly, a sense of weirdness creeps in.

Oh, hey, hey !

Huh, man?

Child!

No? Oh, a lie...?

Is it because you think your identity has already been revealed? He opened his mouth to convey my intentions.

the fact that the conversation was accepted

means there is room for persuasion.

Although the content of the speech was negative, I decided to take it as a positive reaction.

'And the fact that I reacted to these words is not the time line that I possessed, but the original standard... .'

I was expecting it, but after checking it myself, I was filled with worry and relief at the same time.

I'm at a loss as to how to get him to accept serpenes.

it was felt

But it was nothing compared to what would have happened had he not noticed that he was Zion.

'When he opens his mouth, if he says that it was Serpens who killed him... .'

My mind was dizzy.

It's a shame because 'Bibi' was born with more divine power than normal.

Without it, there would have been no reason for Serpens to come down to Rivelon's estate like this, and if

I was almost unaware of this fact.

'Even if I only think about Xeon... .'

How can I be with the person who killed my brother with my brother's body? Knowing that, I would have criticized him for taking the side of Serpens.

Even though I only thought of the possibility for a moment, a cold sweat ran down my spine.

'I have to convince you somehow.'

in what way

Even if he was murdered by , the memory will not be erased. The fear will continue to haunt him.

It would be best if you could forgive me, but is it really impossible?

If that's the case, then at least it's a silence.

I'm not lying! For the sake of this continent's well-being... Oh, of course, I'm not in a position to be armed, but that's because Zion's body is... Oh, no. I don't mean to blame.

yo. This .

The suspicious eyes kept staring at me. It was the first time I realized that the eyes of a baby can be bitter at times.

Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh huh?

I r)n

(

How to interpret the babbling of a baby less than two months old was not taught even in college.

'If I had been in the Department of Early Childhood Education, not the Department of Child Welfare, I would understand.

Was there?'

Hyeonta came to major for a while.

Also, learning at school and on-the-job training are different.

'Maybe Serpense would have understood!'

As if Shion is two months old physically, but mentally is an adult.

Serpence is an adult in the body, but not a child in terms of mental age.

Hey, with those eyes full of anticipation

Even if you look... .

Serpence had a troubled expression on his face and blurred the end of his speech.

I guess it can't be done either.

Unknowingly showing disappointment, his expression became noticeably pale.

"Woah, whoa, baby ?

I still don't know what it means, but I'm sure it's something I'm puzzled about.

View the current situation with an objective eye

Let's take a look.

It may seem that I made Serpens do a nonsensical task and bruised him, saying that I was disappointed when he couldn't do it.

'I'm not even a disappointing company commander... .'

You should also get a decent grip. No matter how hard a company commander is, only the parts that can be fixed with at least effort... , was it?

stop thinking

"We have already disclosed the situation to Serpense and are getting cooperation.

all. I am a messenger of God... I can see a little bit of the future as a character, but I don't have the strength to change it, so I'm getting help from him.

Mao ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!

" Yes?"

It's not!

Isn't that too harsh a denial?

" Siaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah?"

You seem to be saying something very seriously, but I have no idea.

Also because of the fact that he died by Serpens... come

It's hard to remember, but by any chance, when he died... No, can you tell us about the cause?

Huh?

"Oh, that's because I was dispatched in a hurry, so there were a lot of things I didn't hear.

[The], because of various circumstances, the order was suddenly issued... .

uh?',

That's pretty absurd even I think. What kind of work are you going to do afterward, or something like that?

But is it true?

And the future I know is from the Day of Choice and beyond. Zion did not exist in that future. 匸h Serpens had two assistants, and the second

After the death of the aide. There were no more assistants. No, should I say no?"

You're afraid of serpenes. I think the two facts have something to do with each other.

Ah...!

Shion's gaze turned to Serpens.

Serpens killed Zion himself at the time line where I did not come.

knew that

Serpence had a nervous look on what he felt in that line of glance.

"Ah ? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh?"

uh... .

Two pairs of eyes, fearing each other, intertwined in the air for a short time.

' What do we do? It's a big deal!'

A problem I've felt before

all.

I tried to turn away, but now I had to admit that it was impossible.

The fact that it was absolutely impossible for me to be serious when a cute baby in a blue dress frowned and clenched his mouth over and over again... !

'Why are you so cute and angry? Who wants to dress up a kid like this? Who else hung the ribbon?!'

I can't understand the words, just

All I could hear was a cute babbling.

In this case, look at Serpens with a sad expression on his face.

He's visibly frightened again. And knowing the cause all too well, it breaks my heart.

'By the way, the object of that fear is a baby about 2 months old, this is another... .'

It's crazy to me that all I see is two little children staring at each other.

It's not a situation to be taken lightly, but because it looks cute. I was just wondering if this could really be the case.

Ai, ah, Shugyeom .

Ah, I think I know this. You said you killed me.

Suddenly, my heart went cold.

Ah Pua Aia! Lose Poya Gyao Sugar Ginger! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Shion released the resentment she had been holding down with fear.

,...Perhaps.,

I don't know in what spirit I asked him to explain the situation.

With what kind of baseless confidence did I believe that I would be able to understand everyone?

'Should I come back later?'

Because of the divine power, it is difficult to predict when a relatively accurate pronunciation will be possible.

I got the timing wrong. What if everything was revealed when I came down to the Counts?

Should I go to the duke's house and ask Hans how many months Serpence spoke his first word? do you want to know

Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh !

flaw

Serpence is terrified of what he's listening to, or is he just reacting to a cry of resentment.

I shrugged my body.

I suffer too.

I am so distressed and sorry for not being able to concentrate on my own in this situation.

Oh, what to do with these poor babies?!
