The Villain Family’s New Daughter-In-Law - Chapter 101
…Luciel is only crying. I don’t know what to do.”
The Young Master, who had been sitting silently with a gloomy face for a dozen minutes, looked for Bessie for the first time in his life and barely opened his mouth to say these words.
Young Master Kizef, who confided like that, had a face that looked like he was about to cry.
“Wait a minute, Young Master.”
Bessie quietly looked at him, then carefully pulled out the glass bottle she had received from the Chief.
“I don’t know what’s going on, but something sweet might work. Little Madam likes this very much. It is a famous strawberry candy that has become very famous because it was distributed to all servants.”
“…Right. Thanks.”
Kizef, who received the candy Bessie handed over, thanked her, and bowed his head gently. He then walked towards Luciel’s bedroom.
It’s a fact that every servant in the Duchy knows, and while thinking like that, Kizef though he still has much he doesn’t know about Luciel.
But he was certain of one thing.
As much as Luciel is sadly crying right now, he was also heartbroken. He suffered as much as she was sad, or even twice as hard.
Kizef bit his lip.
With a click, the door opened and he cautiously entered Luciel’s bedroom.
Even the air in her room, which had always been soft, felt soggy as if covered with fog. Kizef walked over to Luciel, who was still wheezing in her grandfather’s arms and put something in her mouth.
“…Hm?”
She ate it without knowing what it was, but Luciel stopped crying for a moment at the sweetness that lingered in her mouth.
It was a familiar strawberry-flavored candy.
Luciel couldn’t cry anymore. The sweetness on her tongue and the warm hands that ruffled her hair was so gentle.
“I went to find something to comfort you.”
Kizef sadly took his hand away, then dragged the stool in front of her bed and haphazardly sat on it.
Luciel watched the series of actions silently. Like a lie, the sadness seemed to go away, so she diligently rolled the candy in her mouth.
“…Sweet.”
“Now it’s finally stopped.”
Having calmed down to some extent, Luciel asked her grandfather, who was not very surprised to see the jewels of various colors on the floor.
“Grandpa…Why aren’t you surprised?”
His wrinkled eyes curled softly and he said.
“You mean because you made the jewels?”
Luciel nodded slightly.
“Because I know you are of fairy blood……”
“Oh…How do you know that?”
Gillard tapped Luciel’s blushing nose, then said.
“Hmm, even though I look like this, I have a bright eye for people.”
After jokingly speaking, he continued to speak with a serious look.
“I’ve noticed it to a certain extent because of your pure magic, your shining jewel-like eyes, and the mysterious things surrounding you.”
“…….”
“When you made the thicket in the forest recede and the moon dew tree shine I had my suspicions. I thought it was no coincidence that you met the Phoenix with the Holy Grail. Myths written in ancient languages also have references to crystal fairies.”
“I see……”
“Of course, I didn’t know that a child who only exists in myths would live and breathe in front of me. And most decisively…”
“Yes.”
“I heard from Louis.”
Gilead gave out a sly smile.
“…Hey, what’s that, Grandpa!”
Luciel smiled and clung to her grandfather’s arms again.
Just then, there was a click and the door opened again. The Duke got out of the training hall and returned in comfortable clothes.
His face was very serious.
“Luciel, I’m glad you’re awake.”
The Duke summoned a healing mage to examine Luciel’s mana status. The three men glanced at him, but the healing mage was especially aware of the Duke’s gaze.
“There are signs that the Little Madam’s mana is unstable, but other than that, it seems to be fine. Thank you very much, Little Madam. I’m glad you’re okay.”
The wizard grabbed Luciel’s small hand and said so just before crying. Luciel’s good health was something to be grateful for, as his life went back and forth when she was in bad condition.
“Let go of her hand.”
The Duke grabbed his chin as if it was very annoying. The Mage could feel the eyes of the three men behind him, including Gillard and Kizef.
“Y-yes, I’ll stop it right away… No, I’ll go away.”
And just like that, the healing wizard who had finished greeting each one in a row. Ran out of the room.
The Duke reached out to Luciel and passed the flowing silver hair behind her ear. Looking at her swollen crimson eyes, the Duke asked kindly as if he was upset.
“Did you cry?”
“…Yes.”
“Is it because of him? The one who made you cry.”
Kizef nodded, and his blood-red eyes waited for Luciel to answer.
“Just tell me what’s going on……”

“…Yes, Luciel. Is it something you can’t say to us? Or you can rest a little longer and tell us later.”
However, Louivid shook his head.
“Now that you seem to have stabilized to a certain extent, I want to hear your story, Luciel. Why did you cry so sadly……It should be shared with us.”
“Father-in-law…”
“Why were you so shocked and passed out when you saw the Prince? What did he do, to the extent that our precious baby girl lost her mind……Huh?”
When the three people’s thoughtful gazes gathered, Luciel was troubled. Can she reveal the fact that she had returned to the past…… If I tell them, will they believe it?
However, she thought that it would be appropriate to reveal the facts and act together in order to keep the Prince in cheek in the future.
Above all, I wanted to share what happened in the past with my family, who are working so hard to believe in me and listen to what is sad and painful. I wanted to be comforted.
‘I want to rely on them as a real family.’
Luciel thought the time had come. Time to reveal her own secret.
It’s a life she doesn’t want to remember ever again, but Luciel bit her lip.
“I am…I’m back in time. I didn’t dream of seeing the future, I really came from the future to the past.”
The room was filled with silence as if the three of them had stopped time for a moment in her unexpected confession.
Gillard and Kizef looked at each other and their eyes widened in surprise, and Louivid couldn’t understand her words easily.
“What do you mean, Luciel? Did you go back in time?”
It was conceptually impossible to comprehend. Louivid thought for a moment and wondered if Luciel had dreamed of such facts.
It was beyond common sense.
Gillard said, touching the child’s forehead.
“Luciel, did you just dream?”
Luciel shook her head.
“It’s not….dreams.”
When Luciel seriously spoke, Kizef said.
“I believe in you, Luciel.”
Kizef said with a meaningful look. Because he, too, had seen the future that Raven showed him. It didn’t seem impossible for Luciel to come from such a future either.
So, when they first met, was that the reason that she looked at him with such sentimental eyes?
Several things flashed through Kizef’s mind.
The Duke was also confused at the unbelievable story, but since it was none other than Luciel’s words, he decided to keep listening.
“Keep talking, Luciel.”
“Is that possible? Then, Luciel, you……”
Gillard was speechless. Luciel’s eyes shook finally, but she continued her words.
“I look like a child, but I remember my previous life…”
He has always thought Luciel was a special child who knew a lot, unlike an ordinary child.
“The information I said I had seen in my dreams was actually things I had seen and heard in my past life.”
Luciel calmly continued her words. She didn’t seem to be lying. Only then did they understand the source of a lot of information that Luciel had given them.
“Is that why you knew so much? I can’t believe it.”
“Yes, if this were true, wouldn’t it be a miracle?”
The Duke and Gillard were also surprised by Luciel’s mysterious experience.
“That’s right, it’s really like a miracle. That happened to me, too. Because I, who had died, came back to my childhood.”
Luciel looked at the Duke.
While he stroked Luciel’s hair, he asked.
“Okay, if you’re right, what happened in the past? Does it have anything to do with the Prince?”
“I remember all the hard times I lived as a jewel slave because I was a Cristal Fairy……There, Count of Orbia, the Marquis of Cavill, and the Crown Prince all forced me to make jewels. So when I see them, I’m still scared and anxious……”
As she tried to speak with her own mouth something heartbreaking even to recall, Luciel’s heart sank. After being loved and happy in Bellstein, she thought it would be okay if she recalled the past. But it wasn’t.
‘It still hurts like half of my heart is going to fall off.’
As Luciel struggled to continue her words, Louivid took the little hand of the child.
“I believe in you. Luciel.”
“Sometimes miracles happen, often.”
Seeing Luciel making a difficult face while recalling the past, the Duke and Gillard felt sorry for the child. They knew full well how slaves of different races were treated.
Crystal Fairies are the blood vessels of the rarest kind of fairy and have rare abilities to make them even more unique……. It was to be expected how much they trampled on this little child.
“And there is this saying. Humans don’t change. These are the ones who tormented you in your previous life, and they are likely to do the same in this life as well. I have already seen with my own eyes that Count Orbia and Marquis Cavill covet you.”
A blue fire of anger erupted all over Louivid body.
It was the same for Gillard and Kizef. Due to the anger of the three, the room overflowed with killing intent.
“Everyone, are you all right?”
Louivid gently hugged Luciel’s shoulder, who looked up with concern at the three men exuding frightful energy.
“It’s okay to stop telling painful stories. Luciel, I know what you mean.”
“Yes……”
Luciel nodded her head a little.
“Remember, in this lifetime, none of those three larvae will be able to touch you. I will definitely protect you.”
