I Am The Last Villainess He Has To Kill

Chapter 20: My Child Is Not Very Social

Chapter 20 – My Child Is Not Very Social

After she told Kiehl what she had to tell him someday, Bella thought she was less worried. It was because he seemed to be able to accept it better than she feared.

However,

"Thank you, Bella."

As Kiehl kissed her abruptly, Bella's eyes widened in embarrassment. He’s been kissing her cheek many times before, but her lips are a different matter.

"Young Master, I was the only one who found it…”

At Jenkins' words, Kiehl hugged Jenkins and kissed his elbow roughly where his face touched.

"Thank you, Jenkins, too."

Is it just that Kiehl has a lot of cuteness…?

"No, I didn't mean to ask for a kiss."

As she opened the dining room door to avoid this embarrassing situation, Bella heard a loud sound of a chair tumbling as Pur suddenly went under the table.

“Pur, since when have you been here?”

"I didn't eat it!"

"Wipe the sauce in your mouth."

At the same time, she heard Jenkins disciplining Kiehl from behind. "Young Master, you shouldn't kiss anyone like that."

Bella thought it was a relief.

She was worried that he would get hurt if she told Kiehl.

Then as she said, Pur had crawled out from under the table and spread her chest.

"I didn't eat the meat, I just wanted to kiss it!"

Bella didn't even want an answer back.

‘Because he’s with these kids, Kiehl…’

Bella fiddled her lips lightly and let out a sigh.

‘Wait. Kiehl is going to live with humans in the future, but his home environment is probably worrying…’

A cat, a leopard, a bear, and an unidentified dream demon, at least human-like, half-demons are his family.

***

Bella was worried about him after that day.

‘What if Kiehl goes to the Imperial Palace and isn't too social?'

She stepped between the hammocks in the garden and looked up at the sky comfortably, she pondered.

‘I wished he had a place to hang out with the village kids.'

At that moment, Jenkins slowly approached Bella, who was resting.

"Miss, I need to talk to you for a moment."

"I'm very busy right now."

"You're resting now."

"I'm busy with rest. Rest is also a battle."

Bella didn't even look at Jenkins from her hammock. Jenkins then grabbed the moving hammock and asked seriously.

“The master is truly the Crown Prince of the Elysia Empire.”

"I told you. You still didn't believe it?"

At that, she stared at Jenkins in a bewildered way. She had told him the truth, and he still hadn't even digested it.

"I also told Kiehl that he’s the Crown Prince."

"Yeah? …Hiccup."

Jenkins was startled and started hiccuping and pounding his chest.

"So, Kiehl swordsmanship training was just for the time being."

She said ‘for the time being,' but in the end, Jenkins, who had a foreboding that he would have to spar, rolled his feet.

"How do I spar? There's a difference in height. Will it be a good spar?"

At the word ‘spar,’ Bella snapped her fingers and made a sound.

"Yes. Spar! Kiehl will just have to compete with other guys the same age as him."

"…Yes?"

"We are opening a swordsmanship class in this mansion. We can bring all the children of the village."

Jenkins swallowed his saliva.

"Doing it… That includes me, too?"

Bella clicked her tongue as she looked at Jenkins, clearly showing his dislike.

“No, you have a lot of work to do, so I’ll have to put it to Zanbar.”

"Mr. Zanbar… is going to do it?"

Demons are strong in the first place, so they do not have to hold a sword. To Jenkins, that meant he was going to end up saying he was going to do it.

"Anyway, it's just piecing the old things together, anyway. Just tell him to swing it roughly."

"Isn't that a scam? It's not even a proper swordsmanship class…”

Bella frowned as Jenkins bit his lips.

A scam. She was a police officer in a previous life.

"If you're really nervous, would you like to teach the talented ones among them?"

"I have one body."

"Yes, stop pestering me before you’re cut in two."

“….”

"And, I told you before? Don’t give the kid a hard time."

Hearing that, Jenkins sighed.

"I'll cut down on Kiehl training time."

"Yes."

"Hey, you must be working only five hours a day."

Of course, there are no holidays. Working five hours a day, there are so many dissatisfactions. Bella thought to herself, ‘Try being born in Korea.'

"Hold on until Kiehl becomes Crown Prince."

“….”

"I'll make sure that no demons look at you and ignore you as half, so be patient."

***

Swordsmanship class.

Bella wanted to do it properly while she was at it.

At first, the villagers said a swordsmanship class was opened at the ‘Haunted Mansion,' though as word of mouth began to spread, more and more people came.

They planned and thought of recruiting when the cold winter came, but when spring came, the swordsmanship class was able to operate stably.

Besides, that's the biggest reason for word of mouth. It was quite systematic for a local swordsmanship class.

This was guaranteed by cheeky Jenkins.

“It’s more organized than I thought…”

It wasn't that difficult at first.

It was just Bella's workouts in her previous life to build stamina were arranged according to the steps. If anything, they were all exercises geared towards young children.

In addition to sports such as the long jump and the high jump, the mansion also has bars out of wood.

"Where did you learn all these things?"

Jenkins peered at Bella's curriculum and couldn't help but marvel at her.

"You don't usually study, and I've never seen you do it yourself."

"Are you ignoring my abilities?"

“You have to show it before they ignore you.”

"I’ve been climbing these days? Don't you think I can't do it carelessly because I’m asking you to come?"

He then bit his lip. Because it was true.

The person who was so disrespected in the Demon Realm was given the most trust from the Princess of the Demon Realm here, so he was a little flattered.

"I wonder if half-demons will recover or die if they are cut. Shall we try it?"

"If I die, what about the master's education…"

“If you cut off your arm, you don’t die, cut off the neck and make them talk, and you’ll be a pig.”

Saying so, Bella smiled, and Jenkins walked away.

And so, three times a week, when it was time to get drowsy after lunch, the mansion was full of children.

The children were very active.

"Wow! Master Zanbar! I’m done with this!"

"Hey! I did it first?"

They didn't even fight each other for a day or two.

It was only natural that the quiet mansion suddenly became noisy. However, Kiehl was unfamiliar with such a situation and was quietly doing his duty in a corner.

Bella, who had been watching him for quite some time, quietly approached Kiehl and gave a word.

"Wow! This older sister is so pretty!"

"Whose sister are you?"

All of the children, who were interested in Bella who suddenly came out of the mansion, ran towards and surrounded her.

‘Oh, my God. It’s been a while since I’ve had this kind of interest.'

When she was on patrol in the past, girls surrounded her in front of an elementary school and said, ‘It's a female police officer!' and looked at her as if something was strange. She felt like a hero back then, but now, she feels like a cat at the zoo.

"Hello, I'm Bella, who lives here."

They’re Kiehl's friends, so I’ll be kind to them.

"Oh, Bella in the mansion was said to be a scary person, right?"

How the hell did the rumor spread in the town…

Bella smiled mischievously as she asked.

"Really? Do I look scary?"

At that, the children shook their heads.

"How old are you? Are you older than my sister?"

"Ugh, my older brother is also thirteen years old!"

"I'm ten! My older brother is twelve!"

Even though she didn't ask, the children started talking one after another. As soon as Kiehl saw Bella from a distance, he stopped practicing and ran to her.

From one day onwards, even the village children were invited to the swordsmanship class and so on, and after that, it was difficult to come out of the mansion.

"Bella, what a surprise."

"Guys, this is Kiehl."

Kiehl then saw the children attached like a pyramid next to the black swan standing upright.

‘What is this?'

Then, Bella placed her hands on Kiehl's shoulders. "Now that we're going to fight together, we'll get to know each other."

The children quarreled over it as if their mouths were itchy.

"Hey, that boy. He practices alone every day."

"That's right! He practiced by himself and when I greeted him, he ran away every day!"

Kiehl tried to hide his discomfort.

‘I just want to show Bella what I’m good at…’

Even if he doesn't have to try, he knows she won't let him go anymore.

"Kiehl only lives in the mansion, so it's because you're unfamiliar."

The children hesitated, and the tallest of them reached out and reached out to Kiehl. "Ooh, we're going to go cave exploration after this. Would you like to go together?"

"N—”

"Wow. That's going to be fun. Kiehl, let's go."

As Kiehl was about to say no, Bella's words interjected and he could only bite his lips firmly. He hid behind Bella and grabbed her hem.

"Are you going, Bella?"

If she said she wouldn't go, it seemed that Kiehl wouldn't go either. With that thought, he grabbed Kiehl's hand tightly.

"I can't. Do you have to come with me?"

***

The cave near the village was narrow and had a low ceiling. The sound of water dripping from above hit and echoed in all directions.

"Guys, isn't it dangerous here? Do the grown-ups know about you guys coming here?"

Even in the middle of the day, where there was no light, the children were carrying out an expedition with only a torch.

"If you're scared, you can go. That's why girls don't come."

“Is there a difference between a dangerous thing and a scary thing?”

She was glad it was dark. Otherwise, Bella clenching her teeth at the little ones would have been scarier than the cave. Meanwhile, Kiehl quietly walked next to her, waiting for the end of this time.

‘If I have to come here, I will read one more book.'

As they walked a little further, they saw a space the children had made as a secret base.

"This is where the exploration begins!"

Their hope for the future is to become cave explorers.

The tallest child, ‘Bowen,’ pointed to a dark space that could not be seen by anyone in front without a torch. Then, the youngest child in the group crept up to Bella and asked.

"Aren't you scared, sister?"

He looked like he was about four or five years old, though it seems like he was forced to follow because he wanted to play with the older brothers.

"Are you scared?"

The child looked at his brothers and nodded his head.

"Well, would you like to stay here with me?"

"Hey! Then, you’ll stay here! We'll explore and come back!"

However, the child wanted to follow the older brothers. He kept staring at the backs of the older brothers.

"You're cute. Then, I'll hold your hand, so shall we go together?"

Just as Bella was about to reach out to the child—

“I… I’m scared, too.”

Kiehl grabbed Bella's hand and held her tight.

‘I thought you were the only cute one.’
