The baby slowly opened its eyes and is introduced in the new world. She moved her eyes and analysed her surroundings, just like every other normal baby. But something seems strange.

"Ughh. My head hurts thanks to that bombing. Now even my vision is blurry. And this position feels so uncomfor-  wait, I'm....where..?"

Oh! What an unusual thought for a baby. A baby shouldn't have these kinds of thoughts, unless....

The maids and butlers came towards them and bowed with their hands on their chest and full respect. "We thank you and wish you the warmest congratulations on you bringing a new holy life to this world, dear Sir and Madame."

"Sir and Madame?! What's going on here?"

A man smiled and answered gently, "We would like to thank you for you cooperation too."

"Is this person the so-called Sir? He sounds kind.."

The man turned towards his wife who was holding the baby, and continued, "So? Did you think of any name that would suit our little angel?"

"Hmm.....Vinoria."

"Who's voice is this? Who is this lady? And V-Vinoria? My name is Chasel! No. That's not the concern now. I...I don't even know where I am right now.." Some weird thoughts going on in our dear baby's mind.

"Vinoria....." The man smiled.

"Yes. This will be her name. Vinoria."

*****

This was now after two days. There seemed to have a large banquet, held by the Lupez family, with luxuries everywhere. People reeking of elegance and nobility, wearing flashy clothes, wine glasses in everyone's hand, large hall that sparkled like it was still daytime when it had stricken nine-o'clock on the city clock tower. The baby was still inside the room with her mother, but that room itself was as large as a hall.

"I still don't understand what's exactly happening, but it seems I've been reborn into...some other world? Well, I didn't really think this cliché was actually possible even after reading tons of isekai manga and all, but...now I believe I guess. So, am I actually lucky or not? Ah! Now is not the time for this. I've got to figure out everything first. Ok. So, I have to figure out, sort out, and then organise. Alright!"

Oh dear. This baby sure is unusual.

Just then some people, who looked like they order everyone around walked towards the Lord and greeted, "Greetings Lord Lupez. So, how long are you planning to make us wait? Everyone here came really excited, you know?"

Lord Lupez laughed and replied, "Dear friend, my wife is still resting. I suppose she is coming a little later-"

"Who is coming a little later, dear?"

"Ah. Speak of the devil."

Radiantly sparkling beauty as she was, with her wearing her gorgeous gown, high quality fabric, decorated with precious gems and jewels, top designer, the hall immediately fell silent upon Madame Lupez's arrival.

The noble bowed and exchanged greetings with her. "I greet you with my utmost respect, Madame Lupez. If you don't mind, I suppose we're already starting with this little angel's official announcement?"

"Yes. I suppose it's time"

Lord Lupez signalled his attendant and the music stopped. Every one's eyes were on Madame Lupez. She turned towards the audience and announced, "My dear guests. First of all, I would like to apologise for my late arrival to this banquet, which was my own idea. Now, I appreciate your coming here and attending this banquet in the name of this new life I gave birth to. And I suppose everyone here is eager to get to know the name of this child. So, I now declare, we will address the new lady of the Lupez Archduchy family as Lady Vinoria Grace Lupez!"

The room was suddenly filled with applause and cheers, which startled the baby. Many nobles started to greet the Lupez couple formally. People were enjoying when-

"Fire broke out in the mansion! I repeat, fire broke out in the main mansion!

All nobles lost their elegance as soon as they heard this and started scattering like chickens. Ruckus everywhere. People screaming. Everyone got out of the hall as fast as they could and swarmed outside the mansion.

"Madame, are you alright?!"

"I am, but my husband and my child! I have to save them! They are still inside the hall!"

"Madame, it's dangerous to go inside! We have send some people to look for them!"

All the butlers, maids, attendants, and even her noble friends had to step in to stop her from going insane and barging in into that terrifying glowing flame.

As for the baby..."Huh? Fire? Flames? It's so bright...Wait, fire?! Do I have to deal with this after just having reborn?!....Am i...going to die again?....Wait, why can't I remember a single thing now that I think about it? I'm...losing....consciousness...."

Madame Lupez was crying horrifyingly with all the tears falling on the ground. The people were comforting her, when one of them noticed a silhouette. 

"Madame, look!"

A silhouette of a man carrying a baby in his arms, not even letting a scratch find its way towards her.
