Baby Princess’ Survival Diary

[Baby needs strength to protect herself.]

Iville, who met Driane who suddenly came, frowned upon hearing what Driane had to say.

 

“Isn’t she still young?”

 

[She has to start training now.
She’s practicing the divine power on her own, so the baby should train the sword she is interested in.]

 

Iville sighed a little.

 

[Of course, considering the baby’s physical strength, it may not be possible to train like that right away.
Still, it would be better to do it little by little.] 

 

Now was the only age a child could be a child.
He wanted to let her enjoy it for a few more years, but it was frustrating. 

 

As he lifted his head to answer, Driane’s expression hardened in an instant.

 

[Baby’s presence is moving away.] 

 

“What?”

 

[Get up right now!]

 

Iville immediately picked up the sword at Driane’s words.
And he ran straight to Lione’s room.

 

As Driane said, Lione was nowhere to be seen.
He didn’t even want to know what the divine beast Nadia was doing.

 

[I can’t feel the energy of a demon.
Is this— wizard?]

 

“Damn it!”

 

Iville came out and shouted at the servant.

 

“Get the knights ready right now.
I’ll go first, so follow me!”

 

Iville bit his lips as he rode the horse as Driane guided him. 

 

He let his guard down. 

 

He put holy stones everywhere to prevent demons from approaching the child, but he didn’t think of any defense against magic. 

 

Those who deal with mana are extremely rare, and most of them belong to the tower, so they didn’t pay much attention.

 

He’s going to close that gap.

 

“Giddy up—!”

 

It’s too late to regret.
At that time, he had to go to Lionel as soon as possible.

 

Iville ran the horse more vigorously.

“Hey! Now’s not the time! The Duke has already gone mad!”

 

“What? What do you mean? I thought it’s safe until tomorrow morning?”

 

“The maid definitely didn’t enter until the morning—”

 

There was a mix of familiar and unfamiliar voices.

 

What was certain was that he was not the Duke of Enotis.

 

“Damn it.
I’ve been working on this for years—!”

 

“Captain, we’re going to die like this.
Let’s do it first!”

 

“Let’s do that.
Life is more precious than money!”

“Den, you said you showed your face to the princess!”

 

“I can’t help it.
I’m going to hide in the mountains! I can’t die like this!”

 

The men’s words came into my ears dizzyingly.
Since before, my divine power was slowly draining out.

 

It seemed that Driane was coming to find me.
I was scared for a while, but I wasn’t scared if Driane and my father came.

 

—Actually, I was a little scared.
It was even more so because I couldn’t see what’s in front of me.

 

Then someone released the cloth covered in my eyes.

 

I closed my eyes for a while and opened them.

 

‘Huh?’

 

It was a bird.
A translucent of the fairy’s bird.

 

The fairy’s bird was circling around the same spot as if to come here.

 

It seems the other people couldn’t see the bird. 

 

“Fairy? 

 

[Can you hear me?]

 

“Yesh!” (Yes!) 

 

As I approached the bird, I heard the fairy’s voice.
I answered loudly with joy and looked around in a hurry.

 

The kidnappers were busy talking to each other.

 

[The Duke will come to you soon]

 

“Yesh!” (Yes!) 

 

[Don’t be scared.
Stay still.
If they try to do something to you, I’ll come forward.
Don’t worry]

 

“Yesh.” (Yes.) 

 

The slightly terrifying feeling was gone.

 

—I was actually a little scared, so I hugged the bird and sat on the floor.

 

“Argh! It’s already here! Den, didn’t you check if there’s tracking magic?”

 

“I did! I think I did…?”

 

My father seemed to have come.

 

“Let’s surrender.”

 

“Captain—”

 

“We didn’t hurt her! We were just keeping her for a little while and trying to release her when we got some money—!”

 

The bird that was in my arms suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, the buzzing voice stopped altogether.

 

But it wasn’t scary.
It was because I had Driane in my arms.

 

A trembling hand lifted me up.

 

When I opened my eyes after frowning for a while, I saw my father outside the window.
A man in a red necklace trembled and pushed me forward.

 

“Princess, get out of here.
Get out.”

As I went outside while hesitating, my father opened his arms.

 

I ran and hugged my father.

 

“Did you hurt?”

 

I shook my head.
It was a little scary, but it didn’t hurt.

 

Soon after, the men with their hands up walked out in a row.

 

“We… We just had the princess for a while, and we were just trying to get some money….
money—”

 

“We had no intention of hurting the Princess.”

 

It was to the extent that I felt sorry for the people who were trembling.

 

But I pointed to a man called Den and said to my father.

 

“Fathher, thhath pershon can ushe magic!” (Father, that person can use magic!)

 

“Bring the mana restrictions ball.”

 

A knight put him with a thick chain at the word. 

 

I looked at the red necklace that the captain was wearing.
I remembered something I had forgotten.

 

*****

 

“It seems that a man named Den was employed disguised as a servant.
When he was hired as a servant, he didn’t do a separate magic test—so no one knew that he was a wizard.” 

 

Shane bowed his head miserably and continued.

 

“They say that it took two years to get things done to target the Knights Templar shift.”

 

“2 years?”

 

“Yes.
The original target was Young Master Jerion—.
He is too active and can get hurt, so they seem to have changed the target to a relatively gentle girl.”

 

“What about the person behind them?”

 

“There are none.
It seems to be a group that carried out a few cases of kidnapping the children of aristocrats in the provinces.”

 

“Investigate more thoroughly to see if there is someone behind their back.”

 

“Yes.”

 

Iville bit his lips.
It was actually a habit that came out after a long time.

 

The child returned safely, but the fact that it may not have been driving him crazy.

  

 

“Father.”

 

“Yes.”

 

“I’m sorry.
If I was there—”

 

“It’s not something you can say.”

 

Kayden bowed his head deeply.

 

He didn’t know why.
Today was the day Kayden unraveled his regrets with his fellow Knights.

 

In fact, it had nothing to do with the Duke’s security, but he seemed very surprised to learn that Lione had been kidnapped while playing.

 

“Go back to sleep.
Don’t worry about Lione.
She’s already asleep.”

Kayden nodded and left the room.
Soon after, Driane came in.

 

[I’m sorry.
I should’ve been there for her]

 

“…I forgot to be wary of wizards.”

 

There was no end to blaming the wrong.

 

“Let’s do what you say.’

 

Iville buried his face in his hands.
Since he had proven himself to be an ugly father, there was nothing more to say.

 

“Lione needs power.”

 

It was a hell of a night.

 

******

 

The princess of the Biherville family seemed to have returned safely.

 

“Fairy?”

 

“…Hyung?”

 

“How did you become a fairy?”

 

“When the family moved, we met because we moved together.”

 

“Is that so, Fairy?”

 

“Don’t make fun of me, Your Highness the Crown Prince.
Isn’t that the one who told us to pursue the gang who secretly kidnapped the children of the local nobles?”

 

“You always use honorifics only when this happens.
Scary.”

 

Hyung’s body trembled and said as if he was afraid.
When he’s not afraid at all.

 

“You’re a fairy now, but you’ll be the Prince next time.”

 

When he saw Princess Biherville, in the crystal ball, he smiled softly.

 

「Fairy!」

 

The child who smiled brightly and called him a fairy was rather beautiful as if she were a fairy.

 

It’s not a proper modifier for a five-year-old, but that’s how he felt.

 

Long gray hair and gray eyes shined mysteriously.

 

Even the cheeks seemingly starting to gain weight and toggling around.
If it was a fairy, she would look more like a fairy.

 

“I’ll apologize next time I see her.”

 

******

 

As soon as the morning came, I approached Driane.

 

I was so surprised yesterday that I couldn’t ask anything, but I thought I had to ask today.

 

“Driane.”

 

[Right.
Baby, you were surprised, right? I’m sorry]

 

Drianne bowed its head, saying sorry again and again.

 

Nadia, who only slept and figured out the situation in the morning, was already crying in that corner.

But I’m fine.
I wasn’t scared at all because there was a fairy.

 

—To be honest it was a little scary, but it was bearable.

 

“Ith’sh oway.
Everyone came tho shave me quicwwy.” (It’s okay.
Everyone came to save me quickly.)

 

[You can blame me at times like this]

 

Driane sighed heavily.
Driane didn’t want to leave me for a moment after the kidnapping.

 

To be honest, my nervousness subsided.

 

“Buth you wnow…” (But you know…) 

 

[Uhm?] 

 

“I heard thhath howy thhingsh gwow—.
Do demonsh have divine power?” (I heard that holy things glow—.
Do demons have divine power?)

 

[They don’t.] 

 

Driane answered firmly.
I tilted my head.

 

Then it was weird.
Driane said Princess Enotis must have changed to another person.

 

So I guess she’ll need some divine power.

 

“Buth…” (But…)

 

[Hm?] 

 

“There’sh a gwow.
Ignia.” (There’s a glow.
Ignia.)

 

[It’s understandable because the fake will be filled with the baby’s divine power.]

 

“Buth… ith’sh before thhey shthowe thhe divine power.” (But… It’s before they stole the divine power.)

 

[…Tell me more.]

 

I remembered when I saw the man’s red necklace.

 

The man’s necklace was a dull color, but the princess’s earrings were different.

 

I definitely remembered.

 

The moment it was in the Duke’s hand, it was just an earring, but when it touched Princess Enotis’ hand, a bright light shone through it.

 

[Did you not see anything changed after that?]

 

“I didn’th shee ith afther thhath…” (I didn’t see it after that…) 

 

[Even the smallest thing is fine.]

 

I recalled that day again.
Through the closing door, the princess took off her earrings.
It was an earring that she always wore.

 

“The onwy thhing othher thhan thawing off her ushuaw earringsh and puththing thhem on—” (The only thing other than taking off her usual earrings and putting them on—)

 

After hearing my words, Driane was silent for a moment.

 

[Were the earrings she was wearing originally studded with black jewels?]

 

“Ung.” (Yes.) 

 

Driane’s expression, which had been silent for a while, gradually distorted.

 

[These crazy people—!]
