This Three-Year-Old Is A Villainess - Chapter 113
As Deacons grumbled and squirmed, his wife quickly grabbed his arm and whispered.
“Dear.”
“B-But, my dear, listen to what that jerk is saying…”
“I know. I’m frustrated too. But we don’t have another way right now.”
She spoke calmly, yet her grip on the hem of her dress was tight.
Deacons bowed his head with a sullen expression.
[Found it─]
[Give it here!]
Geoffrey quickly snatched the amethyst that a team member had found.
“Geoffrey, that guy, found it already. Hahaha!”
Valdrich was in a splendid mood.
When he was young, he couldn’t show his spirit, oppressed by his eldest brother Grimier and his second eldest brother Daymond.
But now?
Elder Brother Grimier wasn’t recognized because he has no children.
Daymond’s daughter is just tucked away in a corner, playing.
Meanwhile, his son was the first to get his hands on the amethyst in the competition field.
Of course, there were other teams’ children aiming for the amethyst.
[There, the amethyst!]
[Snatch it! Attack!]
A melee began with the attack from the other team’s children.
But being young children, they couldn’t make full use of their blessings.
The biggest gain was subduing one of Geoffrey’s team members with a rope shot from their hand.
[They’re being annoying!]
Geoffrey’s blessing was called <Beastly Transformation>.
With this blessing, he could partially shapeshift his lower jaw with the teeth of beasts like wolves or crocodiles.
However, Geoffrey had not yet developed his blessing to a significant level, only managing to transform it into dog teeth.
[It’s Beastly Transfor— Aargh!]
[Damn dog. Damn bastard!]
Even that was enough to intimidate the children.
After ten minutes of melee,
The children from the other teams backed off, trembling.
Valdrich wore a satisfied smile.
Then, he glanced sideways at Daymond, who was watching the situation with an indifferent face.
“Brother, what do you think? Isn’t Geoffrey better than your twins?”
“The match isn’t over yet.”
Geoffrey’s team was superior compared to the others.
They were the oldest among the children in the competition field and had blessings useful for the match.
So, it was natural for them to be ahead.
“You’re harsh in your assessment. Meanwhile, your daughter isn’t doing anything.”
“Valdrich.”
“Well, I understand. What can a child with the mere blessing of reading ancient languages do in practice?”
“You.”
“Yes, yes, it’s probably wiser for her to hide like that. Our Geoffrey will make her cry just by opening his mouth.”
It was at that moment that Valdrich burst into laughter.
[Ovuh thewe!]
Erylotte, who had been merely watching from the forest, finally stepped out in front of Geoffrey.
People gasped as Erylotte sprung out in front of Geoffrey, drawing everyone’s attention.
‘Now?’
There was less than ten minutes left until the end of the match.
What could she possibly do by stepping out now?
“Is this the folly of a child?”
“But isn’t it dangerous? What can Erylotte, who has the blessing to read ancient languages, do against Geoffrey, who has an attack-based blessing?”
That’s when it happened.
[Sistow Deenewa!]
As soon as Erylotte shouted, Deianira, who had kicked the ground hard, closed the distance to Geoffrey in an instant.
And then,
Bang─!
She threw a punch.
Deianira’s blessing is <Herculean Strength>.
When Deianira’s punch missed Geoffrey and hit a tree instead, with a cracking sound, the tree fell.
[You crow! Are you crazy?!]
As Geoffrey cursed out loud, Deianira flinched.
[If you just give me the amethyst… I’ll just go…]
[How dare you! Fabio!]
Fabio, a member of Geoffrey’s team with the blessing of <Barrier>, quickly stepped forward.
Fabio created a barrier in front of Geoffrey but…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As Deianira threw several punches, the barrier shattered like a broken window.
[Wha, what?!]
Deianira’s blessing was strong, but not enough to break Fabio’s barrier.
“Has Deianira’s blessing gotten stronger?”
“There was never such talk before! How could this…”
One of the second generations stood up abruptly.
“It’s because Geoffrey’s team can no longer maintain their blessings!”
Children can only maintain their blessing for up to ten minutes.
Geoffrey’s team had exceeded ten minutes while facing other teams’ children.
‘Wait, that means…’
[What are we doing here?]
[Um. I’m curious about what we’re doing too…]
[We jwus west hewe. (We’ll just rest here.)]
Just resting.
…Until Geoffrey’s team could no longer use their blessings.
People who noticed Erylotte’s strategy gasped audibly.
