Lord Baby Runs A Romance Fantasy With Cash - Chapter 37

You don’t want to go with me?

At that time, Ares smiled softly and reached out to me.

“Should I?”

Calmly, the touch of petting my hair was sweet.

But why?

I shook my head, hiding my hands behind my back.

“N, no, if Ares is busy, it’s okay.”

“Nothing is more important than having tea time with my sister.”

Ares gently bent his eyes and tapped me on the tip of my nose.

It was Ares, who was as sweet as usual.

“…”

I swept my arm with my eyes down for no reason.

“Then should we eat in the greenhouse?”

Ares smiled and reached out to me.

The afternoon sun was coming down on him.

The nice black hair shone smoothly like the crow’s, and the sunlight broke on the smiling cheeks.

It was midwinter, but Ares was like a warm spring sun.

‘Why did I do that?’

Ares didn’t even frown when he looked back at me.

It was just Ares.

Why did I think of that?

I stretched my arm toward Ares’ hand.

‘He’s such a sweet and warm person that I can’t believe he’s my brother—’

“Weak bone.”

The voice that fell over my head cut off my thoughts.

When I raised my head, a boy with an uneven expression was looking down at me.

“Ixion?”

Exion pulled my hand.

Thanks to this, I couldn’t join hands with Ares.

“I’m coming, too.”

Ixion, who said so, was frowning as if he didn’t like it.

“….You don’t look like you want to go with me.”

“Oh, I don’t want to.”

“Then why do you want to go with me?”

I asked Ares to eat together.

“What? You should be grateful if you go with me, a bunch of weak cotton.”

Tch, someone would think I was hanging on to Ikxion to ask him to go with me.

When I pouted my lips, Ixion pinched my cheek.

“Hmm, Luatisha is amazing. You thought about drinking tea with me,”

Ares muttered and smiled.

‘Come to think of it, Ixion was impatient because he couldn’t run away every time he saw Ares.’

Didn’t they almost have a big fight last time?

‘I told you not to fight over me, you are so fussy.’

Really…

It was inevitable for family peace, but I’m ashamed to think about it again.

“Shall we go then?”

I nodded at Ares’ words and shouted,

“Oh!”

“Ixion, give me a piggyback ride.”

“What?”

Ixion looked at me as if he was dumbfounded.

“Really, stop it.”

“Come on, come on!”

I reached out with my feet stamping, and eventually, Ixion lowered his posture.

I didn’t hesitate to piggyback.

“Why am I listening to everything?”

I heard Ixion whining.

Hehe.

“Ixion, because it’s just the surface.”

“What?”

“There’s something like that.”

I was in a good mood and swayed my legs.

Whenever Ixion moved, it shook happily.

Is this the cradle where babies lie down?

My stomach swelled warmly, so I closed my eyes.

Ixion, you have a wide back. I’m still young.

Perhaps we arrived at the greenhouse, but a warm wind brushed my forehead.

I feel good.

I think I’m going to fall asleep.

“Hey, weak bone.”

At that time, I heard Ixion’s quiet voice.

I lifted my dimming eyelids.

“Don’t trust him too much.”

“…”

It was clear who Ixion was talking about.

Ares.

If it was like last time, I would have ignored what he said.

Ares was sweet and friendly like a boy made of sugar, and most of all—

‘Because I didn’t know much about Ixion.’

Now I know what kind of person Ixion is.

He’s my brother.

So I opened my eyes and asked.

“Why?”

But Ixion didn’t answer me.

However, the shaking slowed down.

* * *

When asked by Duke Paeraton, Chedwork, the chief butler of the Duke, bowed his head.

“She went to the greenhouse with Young Master Ares. Young Master Ixion has joined them.”

The Duke of Paeraton frowned and nodded after.

“It’d be okay if she was with Ixion.”

At that, Viscount Erkel raised his head.

“Isn’t Ares’ condition pretty good so far?”

“He must have been quite stimulated at today’s conference.”

“But it’s still different from before. His attitude toward the youngest lady was really soft.”

“Yes, I wondered if he was still the young master of Ares.”

The three sons of Duke Paeraton.

All of them were cold and ruthless, just like Paeraton’s veins.

Among them, Ares Paeraton had the most brutal and belligerent personality.

The appearance of a young child slaughtering Monsters at random times remained terrifying even for the Duchy’s people familiar with Paeraton.

“These days, I feel relieved to see young master Ares with the youngest lady.”

“She’s so lovely. Wasn’t Ares also melted by his youngest baby?”

Duke Paeraton, who was still listening to his aides, smiled.

“Do you really think so?”

“What?”

“The way he treats Luatisha is soft and affectionate?”

I wanted to nod, but when I saw the reaction of Duke Paeraton, I thought it wasn’t at all.

“B, but…”

“For Ares, everyone but himself is an enemy.”

“Of course, you think so, but isn’t it a little different when you treat her?”

“What did he do when he learned how to hide his hostility?”

“He laughed.”

“Right, and what about whenever he sees Luatisha?”

“… smiling.”

The assistants were silent for a moment at the fact that they didn’t want to realize.

“B, but you’re not something to be wary of, are you? There was no magic…”

“Did you feel that way?”

Said Duke Paeraton, leaning his back against his chair.

“Ares will be more wary of Luatisha than other brothers.”

“Why did he choose the weakest one?…”

“He has never dealt with it before.”

Never dealt with it before?

Does it mean that she’s a person who doesn’t have magic?

However, all humans other than Paeraton’s direct bloodline had no magic.

Isn’t the largest percentage of Ares’ enemies ordinary people without magic?

“What do you mean…”

At those words, Duke Paeraton turned his head.

His eyes turned out of the window.

Midwinter.

There was white snow piled up in the garden.

Among them, a snowman made by Luatisha by coloring the tip of her nose red stood.

It is probably the first time in history that there is a snowman in the Paeraton Duchy Garden.

The silent Duke’s lips slowly opened.

“Self-······ enemy.”

The lips of the assistants, who heard the whisper to themselves, opened slightly.

“Depending on how you overcome the enemy, Ares could grow,”

He said indifferently, lifting the documents that Duke Paeraton had been looking at.

“Or lose the possibility forever.”

* * *

I felt very, very good.

Outside, white snow was piled up, and inside the glass greenhouse was full of flowers as if spring had come.

On top of that, two handsome boys next to me!

‘Is this the flower of both hands?’

*sigh, so nice.

“It must be really delicious, my sister.”

“Huh?”

“You look so happy. Your cheeks swelled up with freshly baked bread.”

“R, really?”

I turned my eyes because I felt guilty, and Ares poked me in the cheek.

“It’s sweeter and softer than bread,”

he said and smiled.

Wow…

I can’t feel anything when you say that.

You have a thug face, really.

I grabbed Ares’ hand.

“Ares, Ares really has to grow like this!”

“If he grows up like that, he’ll become a monster.”

Ixion sarcastically said at once.

“Try to make Ixion moist.”

“Ha?”

“It’s okay. The non polished stones are pretty. There is hope for Ixion too! First of all, you should do something to look perfect.”

Ixion looked at me with a face asking what the hell I was talking about so I swept my chin, hmm.

“You’re a little handsome,”

Ixion smiled.

I want to make fun of him, but he’s so handsome…?

But why am I unlucky?

“But why is my sister interested in the Mana stone mining business? You know that it’s empty Manastones.”

I was a little embarrassed by Ares’ question.

It’s because it’s just a quest.

I rolled my eyes and answered roughly.

“Yes, that’s why I’m rather interested!”

“Let’s see, you’re betting on a certain failure that others don’t care about. You’re bold.”

No, that’s not it.

I don’t have any thoughts.

Still, the quest wouldn’t have told me to do a ruined business.

“Empty mana stones are said to be chaff, but if you use the chaff well, can you succeed?”

(tl: i wanna apologize coz idk what this means. the direct translation is 쭉정이라고 (Jjukjeong) (chaff) on english and idk what that has to do with anything)

That’s a real money cushion!

“Yeah, I’m curious about what’s going to happen.”

“You really eat a lot.”

Suddenly, Ixion intervened between Ares and me.

“Why are you so small?”

I’m talking with Ares, why are you picking a fight?

I became bumpy and stopped looking for Ixion.

I have a good idea.

I clenched my fist and stuck it on one cheek.

“But back then, Lulu wasn’t allowed to eat anything.”

“What?”

“Lulu was always starving, they’re making me clean and work, so— Hyuk!”

A black magic covered the air.

“That bastard…”

Hyuk.

Ixion grinded his teeth violently.

I became embarrassed and slipped my fist on my cheek.

I tried to pick a fight with you by acting cute and eating.

I thought Ixion would be annoyed like the last time he told me not to fight him.

“······Nikolas Tarenka made you work without feeding?”

Ares smiled and asked me.

It was a very soft and friendly voice.

His hand touched my cheek.

“I’m angry.”

Ares’ murmur was strange.

Who is he mad at?

Even though I thought it would be Nicolas Tarenka, I felt somewhat different.

“I don’t know how to treat you.”

What do you mean?

“Be as you are now! Ares is doing well!”

I pointed at Ixion.

“It’s Ixion who can’t do it!”

“What? This bunch of weak cotton balls!”

Ixion fed me a finger flick on my head.

“Hing, Ares! Ixion hit me!”

He looked strange when I reached out to Ares with a tearful face.

“Just like now.”

My hair was scattered from Ares’ fingertips.

“Really?”

“Huh?”

“You don’t even know.”

Ares said, wiping away the cookie crumbs on my mouth.

“I like math more than philosophy. I like clear answers rather than vague ones.”

“…”

“What I don’t know is…”

Sneak, Ares’ eyes became thinner.

Tuck.

Ixion grabbed Ares’ arm.

“Take your hands off.”

It sounded like a beast growling.

I was surprised and looked at Ixion.

Ixion, who came up before I knew it, was staring at Ares as if he were going to kill him.

The atmosphere of Ares, who received the attention, was also unusual.

“I think it’s going to get crazy like before.”

What should I do?

“Come to think of it!”

I clapped my fingers.

“Are you in my family? It’s my brother, right?”

It was too obvious.

But Ares, who was sweet, read my intention and eased my momentum.

“Why do you ask something obvious?”

Ares smiled at me.

Huh?

‘Why can’t I see the completion of the quest?’

I asked one more time, wondering.

“Really?”

“Of course. My lovely sister.”

The quest was still unresponsive.

‘I, it’s weird. Is there an error?’

The quest condition is “Being recognized by Ares as a member of the family.”

So shouldn’t it be already completed?

‘Unless Ares is lying,’

I felt the blood disappearing from my face.

“Ha. For you, family must be killing each other and dying, right?”

Said Ixion, exhaling his breath.

“You’d better make it clear in the morning. This cotton ball is soft and doesn’t even seem to know how to be wary of people.”

Ixion pressed down on my head and asked Ares.

“Ares, what did you do?”

“What do you mean?”

Ares was still smiling affectionately.

“You knew it. That day, there were humans hiding in the Castle.”

I realized at once what Ixion was talking about.

The day I almost got kidnapped.

“Your unpleasant magic is always spinning around the Castle. There’s no way that you didn’t feel the person who invaded it.”

“…”

“········ And I kept thinking about it, but it was strange that you helped her.”

“That’s too much. It’s natural for an older brother to help a younger sister.”

“Oh, really? Weren’t you the one who wouldn’t blink even if she died in front of you?”

Ares breathed out a small sigh.

“When did you become so smart?”

He had a small smile on his lips.

“It was once like a dog running around without knowing the subject.”

But it was completely different from the usual friendly smile.

Ares’ red eyes looking at Ixion were darkly stained.

I opened my mouth.

“Wait. Then, Ares·····.”

Hint of the quest to find the person involved in the kidnapping case.

Now you are not alone.

In other words, listen to others.

I wanted to deny it, but I had no choice but to ask.

“I almost got kidnapped. Did you know that?”

Ares didn’t answer.

only

[Quest has been completed]

[A 2000 cash lottery ticket will be given as a reward]

[The hint of quest “You have to rule the house first” will be activated]

[You will see the favorability of the quest target]

A more definite answer came back than Ares’ answer.

I managed to take my eyes off the notification window and look at Ares.

And the degree of favorability that has emerged is·······.

[-666]

What?

-666?!
