Duke Vallua laughed as if he was very happy and continued,
"She lives without knowing who her parents are, you're taking all the things she should've had."
"......."
"It's all your fault."
He said that as if he was cursing me.
"You blame me?"
"Theodore and Dubbled family didn't let go of hope until you were adopted. They were eager to find the fourth child and se every resources they had. But this year, after the appearance of the fakes, the search completely stopped."
"......."
"If they hadn't stopped the search, they would have been able to find the fourth child. Isn't it all your fault?"
"......."
"She is alive. Someday she will come back and take all of your belonging. Only then will you feel it. This desperation......!"
The Duke of Vallua laughed arrogantly.
"The trial is a place where all five dukes gather. Your father will also be there. What if I told him all of this?"
"......."
"The search will begin again and you'll be abandoned. This time, the real daughter will show up and get everything you have back."
"......."
"How is it. Are you going to make me meet Theodore?"
He continued,
"But if you help me escape, I'll cover it all up."
The Duke of Vallua came close to the cage and whispered.
"Your wonderful father, brothers and brilliant aunt who gives all of their attention to you will then give their evry attention to the child. Now child, you only have one chance."
At the moment, my family and my loved ones appeared in my mind, looking at me while smiling.
With my head down, I murmured helplessly.
"......yes."
"Okay, then go ahead and get me......!"
"You're still trash."
"......what?"
I bring my hand into the cage and grabbed him by the collar.
His body, which had been affected by long agony, couldn't even shake a child's hand.
"If I'm afraid of the fourth child coming back, can I kill you here?"
"M, murder is not like the one in virtual battle. Do you think your conscience can handle it?"
"You don't know what I'm capable of, do you?"
"You, you...!"
"Aren't you stupid?"
The Duke of Vallua stiffened when I spoke with a smile.
I've heard this kind of threat in my second life.
"The whole world will soon see that you are a fake, for you have not yet raised your divine power. The church will give up on you, and even the Empress will no longer protect you."
That's how he threatened me and achieved his wish.
'But you thought I'd be fooled again?'
"If you kill me, who's about to be tried, you'll be chased by the Imperial Knight for the rest of your life. If you get caught, your father can't even save you!"
