The Villainess is Raising the Male Protagonist - Chapter 173

Side Story 3 (2)

A banquet with a different atmosphere from the Arpen Empire unfolded in front of her. She joined hands with Arthur and slowly entered the banquet hall. As they entered, a calm performance began.

They even provided food and space for us, perhaps because they were considerate more than she thought. As soon as she tried to drink a glass of champagne, Knox reached out and stopped her hand.

“What’s wrong with you?”

“I think it’s better not to drink that alcohol.”

“So why?”

She tried to put alcohol in her mouth by hitting Knox’s hand. Knox quickly took the glass in his hand, took it into his mouth, and poured alcohol into his mouth.

“Are you crazy?”

Arthur sat on the sidelines this time to see if he liked Knox’s behavior. Eventually, she had to finish the banquet without having a drink.

The next day, she neatly arranged her clothes, and when she saw the period, she approached Knox and nodded.

“What are you doing? Hurry up and finish.”

Even in her words, Knox stared at me without taking a soul. Knox’s gaze, slowly heading downward, soon stopped on the stomach.

“What’s with that dirty gaze?”

“What’s that in your stomach?”

She couldn’t understand what Knox was saying. Nevertheless, Knox tilted his head sideways with his gaze fixed. She got annoyed and stepped lightly on Knox’s foot.

“What’s wrong with you? What’s on my stomach?”

She wondered if he was saying she gained weight or turning around, so she frown and bowed her head and looked at his belly.

It was a day to take away the soul, but Knox did not intend to take it. I couldn’t understand Knox’s attitude. She looked him over with a strange look.

“Oh, what?”

Knox fell out of her with a tantrum.

What’s wrong with him? When she shed her eyes, she turned around and looked at Arthur. Arthur seemed to look at her and ask with his eyes at Knox’s sudden gaze.

“I’ll hold it in for a while.”

“What’s wrong with you? What else are you going to ask for?”

She pulled Knox’s hand and said do it. However, Knox only narrowed his forehead and did not take her soul.

Rather, he calmly told her in a more relaxed voice than before.

“Don’t do anything you’ll regret later, and listen to me this time.”

Knox got up from his seat, stretched, and headed toward the door. Arthur also stared at Knox’s behavior to see if it was suspicious.

There was no need to ask Knox, who said he would not eat, to eat her soul. She just tried to follow the contract, and he didn’t.

“Where are you going?”

“Because I have to live because of what you’ve done.”

What she did?

Knox disappeared without telling her properly until the end. Knox, who suddenly disappeared, and the revealed monkeys approached me and looked around with wonder.

“Wow, what’s up with Mary?”

“……where else?”

She thought Knox would take them when he went, but he seemed to have left the Monkeys to her to see if she was bothered. She felt tired because she felt like she was raising children.

“Knox, do you know where he is?”

“Hmm. I shouldn’t have said it.”

“By the way, Mary, you smell different.”

“Different smell?”

Arthur came up to her and took it out of the monkeys. Bellial flew towards her stomach. He stared and soon flew up.

“Another soul!”

“It smells good!”

Another soul?

Arthur and her two eyes met unexpectedly. At the same time, her big eyes headed toward her stomach.

“No way!”

The reason Knox didn’t take the soul and the other souls the dreamers talked about…….

“Child?”

Arthur stared at her, covering his mouth, wondering if he was overwhelmed. I turned a blind eye to Arthur’s gaze for a moment and asked Bellial.

“Belial, can you see another soul here?”

“Yes! I can see it! It’s very small.”

“Knox, the reason why you went somewhere else…….”

“He went to the original place for a while for Mary.”

It was true. She really had a child. She couldn’t believe it, but Bellial couldn’t lie to her.

With the unfamiliar feeling she felt for the first time, she couldn’t speak for a long time in Arthur’s arms and hardened on the spot.

“I think I should go back quickly.”

“Fredio will understand.”

Arthur took a list of things he had organized and handed it over to her. After quickly scanning through the neatly arranged documents, she lightly kissed Arthur’s cheek.

“Thanks to you, I can go back quickly.”

Everything needed for trade was perfectly written. Arthur and her succeeded in the trade needed for Arpen, closer to perfection than expected.

Even in the kingdom, she was able to finish well without much friction as if she liked the conditions.
