Born as the Daughter of the Wicked Woman Chapter 19

Since the day I cried in my mothers arms, my family has not gone out beyond necessity from the forest house.

It was because of Ricardas opinion that I could be lonely.

In that opinion, my mother declared that she would co ho and finish it when she had enough work left to work overti.

The sa was true for Lennox and Ricarda.

My day has not changed much since I woke up. I wake up in the morning and say hello to my family in a friendly way. After receiving Ricardas treatnt, I eat breakfast, then take my dicine, and at last, see my family off.

I also study hard for the writing that my mom gives as my howork.

My family doesnt want to leave alone.

Mom, Lennox, and Ricarda all took turns to beco my guardians of the day one by one.

Sotis it seed to that there was a bit of a fight going on with this.

When I rembered Ricardas face complaining that it was his turn to go to work, I laughed out loud.

The trembling corners of my mouth were awkward, but I think my smile has gotten more natural than before.

Looking at the mirror in the Oval Office, I thought to myself, nodded, and focused on my howork again.

It was already past ten p.m.

Its usually my bedti.

While scribbling, I thought of todays day.

The cocoa made by Ricarda and Lennox coffee were side by side, so I was confused and drank the coffee all the way.

And both of them were scolded by mother.

Because Lennox had a cup of coffee next to cocoa, Ricarda couldnt tell the difference between cocoa and coffee and handed it over.

Both looked upset, but I was imdiately surprised to hear that my heart was beating fast.

They almost went wild again thinking whether or not they fed a poison.

As I recalled these days, everything was fun, so my lips kept shaking.

Naturally, my body, which wasnt resistant to caffeine, continued to make my heart pound.

Eventually, I couldnt sleep at night, so I was studying together in my mothers office until a while ago.

Its been a while since she went by clock saying that she had to hurry over to the rchants group in the capital.

Its good to have a pleasant thought, but after looking back at the clock and howork, my neck got a little stiff.

Ah, this is confusing. Ill ask mom when she cos.

I drew stars next to the confusing letters and then wrote down the next word.

After studying for a long ti, the clock suddenly began to shine.

When soone arrived, the magic attached to the watch shone, so I thought that my mom had returned and raised my head.

You are bac

But my words didnt last long.

It wasnt Mom that popped out of the clock.

A slender figure dressed in black appeared along with a small figure.

Without knowing the situation at the mont, I realized that I had forgotten what role my place was playing.

Instinct said.

This is the mont when the male protagonist from the second part of the novel appears.

But how co there are two?

Co to think of it, I couldnt tell who the male lead was because there were few descriptions of his childhood appearance.

Which one is it?

Even the lights in the room were turned off, and only the lamps around the desk were turned on, so I could not see their faces in detail.

They used to say that when the protagonist was a boy, his appearance was very peculiar. I think they said he wasnt human.

No matter how hard I tried, I couldnt rember the details of his appearance.

I rember being frustrated because there was no detailed description until the end of the story.

Wait, isnt this a dangerous situation?

I could see that the tallest of the two was looking at then hesitating.

You tried to run without hesitation, but you stopped as soon as you saw ?

Clearly the male protagonist was caught trying to kill his mother.

I also stared at them blankly, grasping the situation and hardening my expression.

In the anti, they flew back this way as if they had finished organizing their thoughts.

Is this the male lead?

It seed that the story was correct seeing him throw his body to attack.

Despite the priority that the attack should be avoided, I couldnt do anything.

I couldnt move by myself because I hurt my leg.

If they were determined to kill and attack properly, it would be inevitable.

Why is it today of all days?

Usually, its ti to sleep. But today was a little different from usual. The day Im awake.

There were also mistakes by Lennox and Ricarda that they wouldnt normally do, and mother rushed out unexpectedly.

As if it was trying to force into the flow of this story.

Isnt sothing weird?

But before I could even think about it, one of the two reached .

The man who caught threw back without giving ti to struggle.

I forced myself down to the floor and fell with a thud.

Ah!

When I let out a painful groan after I fell and hit my back, the person who seed to be a man grabbed my neck and lifted .

When I was lifted with the weight on my back, the clothes tightened my throat, and I began to choke.

Who are you? Wheres the Guild Master (1) ?

Ugh!

Of course, I had no intention to answer, but this man seems to have forgotten that he was holding my neck.

I exhaled roughly as if I were forced to squeeze out my narrow breathing hole.

The less I answered, the more nervously the man looked back.

The smaller figure next to the man stood quietly staring at us.

At first glance, he looked like a tall boy. However, I couldnt see well because it was dark, and most of all, I couldnt afford to look at him because the front beca blurry.

Keuc-.

Damn it! First Ill start by killing you!

The man who lifted started to hurry up as if he was scared of sothing and pulled sothing out of his arms.

What he took out sparkled in the light of the lamp on the ceiling of the Oval Office.

I could know what it was, even when my vision was blurred.

It must be a sharp weapon like a knife.

Let-.

I wanted to scream, Let go of , let go right away, but my voice didnt co out. I was suffocating while my vision was getting blurred, and I felt like I was going out of breath

Once again, I began to stop thinking about death as soon as it ca to .

As I began to lose consciousness and my front faded away, a small figure in the distance could be seen slowly moving away.

The man who grabbed loosened his grip on as if he were relieved.

I shook and struggled as much as I could, thinking it was my last chance in the faint burst of a breath.

What, you, you little girl!

The man panicked and dropped his weapon as if he had never thought I would rebel.

Rough breath ca out of the air, which was rapidly climbing in my neck.

I shouted desperately as the man reached out his hand, trying to get again in a hurry.

Mom! Lennox! Ricarda!!!

I scread so desperately that Ive never raised my voice this high in my life.

Save !!!

The embarrassed man lifted up again as I kept calling my mom and brothers with a rough cough.

As he tried to tighten my neck with his hands as if he would kill by strangling in a hurry, the door of the office suddenly opened roughly.

The first one to co in was Ricarda, followed by Lennox.

Perhaps because I was strangled, I kept coughing.

Two people were seen flinching at the clinking sound.

Embarrassed at the sight of the two, the man held back the weapon he had dropped with his arms wrapped around my neck and backed away.

Stay away, dont co near !

What the hell are you doing?

Unlike usual, Ricarda and Lennoxs eyes were fierce. As if he never expected those fierce eyes on their faces, the man seed to shrink.

But soon he pulled further and warned them.

I told you not to co near.

Is the guy like him the male protagonist? A jerk like him?

By the ti I had a suspicious thought, the Magic circle had begun to unfold from Ricardas hand.

The splendid spread of the Magic circle turned to the man who was holding , and his hands and feet were tied to a chain that suddenly leaped out of the air.

Wha- whats this?!

Lennox, who popped out the mont I fell to the ground after being released from the mans arm, safely accepted .

Phew.

At the sa ti as he exhaled a sigh of relief, a small figure who had only been standing awkwardly in the middle suddenly moved his body.

Unlike those who were bound to , he rushed to Ricarda without hesitation, lightly floating his small body into the air.

Unaware of his presence, startled Ricarda displayed reflexive magic.

In the end, the little boy was equally bound by chains that popped out of the air.

Heuk- what is it? I didnt even know it was there.

Are you all right, Daphne?

While Ricarda cald down his startled chest, Lennox looked at my condition with an expression of concern.

The mont Lennoxs gaze reached my neck, his expression hardened as before.

Ricarda approached us with a sigh as he looked at the two who were tied up.

Its dangerous!

And at that mont, the little boy broke the chains that entangled him.

It happened so quickly.

He stepped on the broken chain and started to rush to us.

When he thought my cries were a step late, he passed us and jumped lightly and cut off the neck of his captive companion at once.

The man who had threatened until a while ago died so easily.

Blood scattered on the floor, and the mans life disappeared so easily.

It was a mont you couldnt even scream at the scene, slowly passing like slow motion.

After killing his colleague, he turned around without hesitation, rushing to us without even stopping to wipe the scattered blood.

And then, suddenly, the white smoke that appeared in the air tied his neck, arms and legs to the ceiling.

Do you dare know where this place is, for assassins like you to co in at your will!?

Mother!

Lennox and Ricarda were all in a daze when mom yelled.

Mom also arrived, and seeing everyone together, I should have been relieved, but strangely my body trembled.

It was my second ti to see the dead body, but not knowing that the mont of death would be this cruel, my body stiffened.

Lennox, who noticed that, took care of and turned my head.

Only then did the bodies disappear from my sight, and everyone was seen safe.

My trembling body cald down a little.

It was not until I confird that everyone was safe and that I was safe that a sigh of relief ca out.

I slowly raised my head and looked up at the man tied to the ceiling.

The face of a bright child was revealed in the hood that was stripped by smoke.

The child was closing his eyes, and his black hair stood out against his pale face.

I lowered my gaze slowly.

I could see round eyes with slightly raised ends. Perhaps because of my gaze, the child slowly opened his eyes.

His stern face, without a single expression, and his eyes really drew the attention.

I encountered beautiful purple eyes like Violaceae(2).

The area where the whites were supposed to be was all black, and his pupil like a reptile shone quaintly.

His appearance looked like a boy, but as if sothing had been added to him, there was a truly inhuman atmosphere.

As soon as I saw those eyes, I could tell,

That guy is the male protagonist of the second part.
