My Child Is A Villain

“D-don’t stick to my mom,” said Ronschka to Leon with a dissatisfied expression.

“Adele said it’s okay.”

“Y-you have Master!”

Only then did Leon think of his teacher, Lucas.

“Yes, but…”

Master is my teacher. Leon made a confused expression and then looked up at Adele.

Recently, as Adele’s presence in front of Leon grew, he often exhibited this behavior. Whenever that happened, she helped Leon.

Most of them, of course, were help based on her past life memories. Adele in her present life grew up hard in a deep mountain village from an early age, and that alone didn’t really help much.

“What does your teacher mean to you, Leon?”

“He is just my teacher.”

“But what if your teacher thinks otherwise? How about asking him? And… should Leon also sit here and think about it for a moment?”

As Adele pulled out a chair with a smile, Leon sat on it and was lost in thought.

After looking at Leon like that for a moment, Adele slipped out of the room. When Leon was given a topic, he pondered over it for quite a long time.

So I have enough time for this.

Adele found Lucas wielding a sword in the gymnasium.

“Sir Lucas.”

Sensing someone’s presence, Lucas put down his sword and turned to Adele.

“Why?”

Is it just my feeling? Lucas’ behavior has become more relaxed since some time ago.

“I have something to discuss with you about Leon.”

“Leon?”

Lucas strode forward and stood in front of Adele. Adele felt a little intimidated as the tall man approached her, but she didn’t back down.

“What’s wrong with Leon?”

“He seems to be having a lot of trouble these days. About what the existence of his teacher means to him.”

At that, Lucas tilted his head slightly and said, “A teacher is a teacher.”

“And what?”

“And?”

Is there anything else?

Lucas made a slightly confused expression. A teacher is a teacher, what else could there be?

But he didn’t just ignore Adele’s words. Lucas was feeling it too, at least Adele’s love for Ronschka is sincere.

‘Although there are parts that I have doubts about.’

No, for now, it was time to think about Leon, his precious disciple.

“Sir Lucas, how old is Leon now?”

“Eight years old.”

“What would a normal eight-year-old do?”

“They will work or learn something.”

Only then did Adele realize that she was thinking too much about her past life experiences. In this era, even if you are young, you must help your parents work if you can stand up.

Of course, in her past life, children aren’t just spoiled all day long; they are given sufficient playing time. Shouldn’t that be children’s days?

“Hmm. First of all, eight years old is still the age where you need your parents’ love.”

“Leon’s parents are dead.”

“I know. But even if he doesn’t have parents, isn’t there a similar figure?”

Then Adele looked at Lucas in the eye. “What do you think?”

“You mean a teacher is like a family?”

“Isn’t that so?”

Right. For Lucas, Leon is precious and can be called family. But why didn’t he realize it until now?

Lucas looked down at Adele with a strange expression. He’s usually not this talkative. But talking about Leon gave him a strange feeling.

Could a woman like this abuse the son she gave birth to? The question that had been bothering him for so long surfaced again.

“Leon will come soon.”

Adele left the gym with those words. And not long after, Leon really came.

“Master!”

Leon, with a flushed face, approached Lucas and asked, “What am I to you Master?“

Lucas replied with a smile. “Does this question really need an answer?”

“Yes, I want to hear it.”

“Then I’ll answer you. Leon, you are my only family.”

Leon’s eyes twinkled. “You are my family too, Master!”

The small body of his that came running was hugged by Lucas. I thought he had grown quite a bit after bringing him to the mansion, but all of that was my illusion.

Leon is still a small child.

‘Why didn’t I know that?’

Lucas hugged Leon, who was starting to sob, and patted him on the back. He (Lucas) still seems to be lacking a lot.

“It’s nice to have a family,” said Leon.

“I like it too.”

“But I think it would be better if we had more family members.”

“More?”

What do you mean? When Lucas asked again in wonder, Leon whispered, “For example, Adele being my mother.”

This time Lucas didn’t know what to say.

* * *

While Leon spoke of her bold wishes, Adele was also lost in her thoughts. Now is the time for her to organize something she couldn’t think of because she was sick.

Adele was writing calmly on the paper. Of course, those weren’t the letters and language of this world.

Adele’s mother was a unique person. Even though she lived for her daughter, she sometimes drifted away from her. She also opposed her learning to write.

Well, it was a very rural village where even a few boys learned the letters.

‘Yeah, this is such a world.’

So she needs to prepare well for the future. Adele first recalled the things that would happen.

Ronschka’s story doesn’t come out until he meets the main characters. Nevertheless, she remembers the little things well because he is Adele’s favorite character.

「Ronschka was abandoned after being abused by his mother. Then he met a bad wizard,」

After writing that, Adele bit the tip of the pen she was holding.

The bad wizard is probably a black wizard who worships demons, whom Leon, the male lead, will meet later.

In other words, a person who does terrible things casually.

That person kidnaps Ronschka and torments him the whole time.

It was all explained in just one paragraph, but now she knows how much pain is contained in that one paragraph.

‘But the story has changed.’

Adele did not abandon Ronschka, she left the place where she lived and moved into Lucas’ mansion. She is far from the black wizard’s hideout.

‘So, wouldn’t it be okay?’

It should be okay.

She let out a deep sigh.

Let’s pay attention to Ronschka until he grows up. So that he doesn’t get hurt or hurt others.

Adele is incompetent, but she means to do her best. If so, first of all-

“I need money.”

She now lives at Lucas’ mansion and is provided with everything she needs, but she can’t continue to be this shameless.

I have to work and earn money.

But when she goes to work elsewhere, she has to stay away from Ronschka. So what’s the best way?

“I have to get a job in this mansion.”

Madeleine recently said that one of the maids had returned to her hometown because of her marriage, so why don’t I try applying for the position?

Both as Adele from the past life and Adele from the present life, I do a lot of housework. Cleaning this large mansion will obviously be difficult, but there’s nothing wrong with giving it a try.

I’ll ask later. With that thought in mind, Adele started writing again.

Adele has already met one of the main characters, Leon.

The story of Ronschka, the villain, appeared to some extent. But the story of Lucas, whose death had a profound effect on Leon, was written in a vague way.

「Lucas is Leon’s teacher. He is a sword master and a duke. He dies at the hands of Ronschka, who later became the Great Elementalist.」

Next is Leon.

He is the character with the most information.

「Leon is the male lead. He is the son of a noble family, but his family was destroyed due to a conspiracy.

It was Lucas who saved Leon, who barely survived and was wandering around. At first, he did not know Leon’s identity, but later he moves actively to help when he gets to know him.

At about that time, the female lead of the Elementalist family also appears. She quickly falls in love with Leon, and betrays her family for him.」

This is Adele’s rough summary.

All of these things are connected, and in the end, there will be a final villain.

If there is one problem,

“I don’t remember the final villain.”

I must have read the entire novel, but why can’t I remember it?

Adele rubbed her head. “I don’t know.”

She held her head for a long time and tried to remember, but eventually gave up.

When Ronschka grows up a little more, I will leave this mansion with him. I feel sorry for Leon, but it looks like he’s going to have a good childhood, so he’ll be fine.

It is okay to say that she is selfish. The most important person to Adele right now is Ronschka.

Since Leon is the male lead, even though it is difficult, he will be happy in the end. She is also troubled at Lucas’ fate, but she can’t help it.

When Adele finished her thoughts, she burned the paper she had written on.

‘I would have a hard time explaining if anyone see it.’

Better not do anything suspicious. So I’ll do what I can now.
