NOVEL NEXT Baby Princess’ Survival Diary
Chapter 17
As I kept putting pudding into Jerion’s mouth, Jerion took the spoon from me.
Then he scooped out the pudding and put it in my mouth. The amazing taste loosened my expression without realizing it. The taste of pudding was amazing whenever I felt it. The reason why I learned the word amazing was to express the taste of pudding. “Puddi… Pudding…” Jerion, waiting for Nancy, looked happy. He seemed in a good mood at the thought that soon he could eat the pudding. To make him feel better, I took the seed and went down from my father’s lap and approached Jerion. “Jerion woowed ath thhish.” (Jerion looked at this.) “Grashsh?” (Grass?) “I made ith grow!” (I made it grow!) “Withh divine power?” (With divine power?) “Ung!” (Yes!) Jerion looked at me with a worried look. Soon, Jerion’s eyes become teary. Surprised, I put down the pudding and approached Jerion. “Whath’sh wrong?” (What’s wrong?) “Nunya wiww shicw if ushing divine power—” (Nunya will sick if using divine power—) “I don’th feew shicw righth now! i onwy ushe ith a withthwe” (I don’t feel sick right now! I only use it a little!) “Reawwy?” (Really?) “Ung!” (Yes!) “Kyaa.. Nunya ish amazing!” (Kyaa.. Nunya is amazing!) Jerion looked at the seeds and shouted that it’s amazing. They are so small you can’t see them unless you look closely. I constantly looked at the seeds to make sure I didn’t get tired. “Whath ish thhish seedh—?” (What is this seed—?) “Uhm… Thath’sh… Driane…?” (Uhm… That’s… Driane…?) When I called Driane in a small way, Driane, who was under the sun outside the window, approached me. “Whath ish thhish seedh—?” (What is this seed—?) [Well. It is a common wild flower with different names in different regions. In this area, it is called ‘Derina’.] I told Jerion what Driane said. Jerion said he would name it if the names were different for each region.Jerion, who squatted on the floor, not even sitting on the sofa, and pondered, nodded his head saying he understood cutely. “Nunya, whath abouth Kirin?” (Nunya, what about Kirin?) “I wiwe ith.” (I like it.) “Then thhe name wiww be Kirin.” (Then the name will be Kirin!) Jerion, who named it, was more excited and focused on the seeds. Nancy brought the pudding, but he didn’t even pretend to see it. “Jerion aa—” “Aa—” In the end, I fed Jerion a bite of Pudding. The pudding was strawberry pudding that suits Jerion’s taste. The strawberry scent came up and looked delicious. Jerion watched the seeds and ate the pudding. Jerion’s blonde shook gently. “Ish Driane thhe one who doesh ith?” (Is Driane the one who does it?l “Nho, Nadia.” (No, Nadia.) Jerion’s expression hardened at the word Nadia. It was a look I’ve never seen before. Jerion approached me, hugged me tightly, and looked around. Anyone could tell he was on alert. Surprised, I asked Jerion what was going on, and he opened his mouth a little. “…I hathe Nadia.” (…I hate Nadia.) “Ung?” (Yes?) “Becaushe of Nadia, nunya goth shicw!” (Because of Nadia, Nunya got sick!) Suddenly, Jerion shouted loudly. Nadia’s tail, who was peacefully eating the pudding, stood up. “I hathe Nadia! Nadia ish bad guy!” (I hate Nadia! Nadia is bad guy!) [I’m not!!!] Nadia’s voice rang loudly in the room. Jerion couldn’t hear the voice, so I was the only one who quietly covered my ears. Nadia’s fur trembled, perhaps realizing that Jerion couldn’t hear his voice. I felt my divine power draining away. Nadia, who revealed the figure, was translucent, just like Driane before. Nadia began to scream before even speaking to me about how I had lost as much divine power as I could hold on to. [I hate you, too!] “Whath do you mean!” (What do you mean!) Like that. The fight began. [Baby. Don’t you have to stop them?] “Kidsh grow up fighthing.” (Kids grow up fighting.) Strangely, my father, Lena, and Driane burst into laughter. The only one that didn’t laugh was Nadia and Jerion who couldn’t hear me because they were fighting. [The other side is not a kid—. Well, that’s true] At what I said, Driane laughed and soon nodded. [Right. They must have similar mental ages] ****** “Don’th give ith tho Nadia!” (Don’t give it to Nadia!) [Don’t play with Jerion!] “Don’th thaww tho Nadia!” (Don’t talk to Nadia!) [Don’t give it to Jerion!] Jerion started following me around since then, perhaps knowing Nadia was still next to me. Nadia and Jerion didn’t stop for a moment even while I talking to Driane to practice controlling the divine powers. “Stoph ith…” (Stop it…) “Nadia ish shthupid!” (Nadia is stupid!) [Do you know how smart you are?! You’re just like a new chick!] “You’re jushth a body piwwow!” (You’re just a body pillow!) [Iik! I’m not a dog I’m a divine beast!] Nadia hid its appearance, leaving only a voice, as if felt that my divine power had risen to the dangerous level from the middle. Jerion was shouting steadily, perhaps unfamiliar to shout into the air. Once the fight started, I didn’t think it would end easily. It was already almost evening, but both of them still didn’t look tired. At first, I smiled and looked at the two, but my expression hardened little by little. The fight, which began for nothing, was going longer than I thought. “Jerion… Nadia…” Jerion and Nadia shouted at the same time at my call. The head turned equally toward me. “Don’th caww Nadia!!!” (Don’t call Nadia!) [Don’t call Jerion!!!] Startled, I stepped back a little. Then, soon after, there was laughter. It was cute to hear each other’s names while fighting hard. Jerion was staring at a place where Nadia couldn’t be seen and the sound could be heard. Nadia was likewise looking around Jerion and staring at Jerion. Suddenly, his hand went up to his waist. Cute things are cute, but I thought that going into this state would be really bad. “Bothh of you fowwow me!” (Both of you follow me!) When I made a loud voice, Nadia and Jerion looked at me in surprise. To the two who are trying to complain, hmm! When I did it, both of them bowed their heads and followed me. I almost relieved my anger because it was cute, but I kept a firm look because I thought they would continue to fight if I let it go. I visited my father’s office. And so I thought my father would scold both of them severely. Knock, knock—. “Fathher.” (Father.) As soon as I called my father, the door opened. Looking at Shane, I thought it was a good thing to come for Shane and other aides, as well as Jerion and Nadia. When I ran to my father and hugged him on his knee, he hugged me. I had to talk about Nadia too, so I whispered into my father’s ear. “Fathher. Pweashe thaww withh Nadia and Driane.” (Father. Please talk with Nadia and Driane.) “Okay.” When my father blinked, Shane smiled and walked away with the rest of the aides. As expected, it seemed to have come well. Nadia and Jerion were quiet whether they noticed. When everyone moved away, I used a little bit of my divine power to make Nadia look blurry. It was after getting permission from Driane that this was okay in advance. “Fathher. Bothh of thhem weep fighthing.” (Father. Both of them keep fighting.) “Is that so?” “Yesh! they fighth everyday!” (Yes! They fight everyday!) Father’s eyes hardened. Jerion murmured and opened his mouth. Nadia also opened its mouth. “No… thath’sh Nadia…” (No… That’s Nadia…) [Jerion first—!] “Aah!” When I shouted without realizing it, Nadia and Jerion were surprised and looked at me. I made a stern expression and placed my hand on my waist. It was the expression I had when I scolded the youngest kids at the orphanage. It may not be that scary because I’m on my father’s lap, but I tried to look as strict as possible. “You can’th weep fighthing wiwe thhath!” (You can’t keep fighting like that!) “Buth—” (But—) [But—] “No! you can’th!” (No! You can’t!) [We can’t…] “We can’th…” (We can’t…) Jerion and Nadia, who were about to make a big fuss, nodded hastily. However, my hands didn’t come down from my waist because I saw the two having a snowball fight a while ago. “Jerion.” “Yesh…” (Yes…) “Nadia didn’th do ith on purposhe” (Nadia didn’t do it on purpose.) “Buth—” (But—) “I don’th thhinw Nadia wnew anythhing wiwe thhath.” (I don’t think Nadia knew anything like that.) I thought I would have pushed ahead with the contract even if I knew, but I said so for now. Nadia stayed still, too. “And Nadia.” [I didn’t do anything wrong!] “Nadia.” [….A little.] “Jerion couwd be mishundershthood.” (Jerion could be misunderstood.) [There is…] “Then I have tho expwain. Nadia ish 200 yearsh owd. You’re much owder thhan jerion, buth you jushth fighth wiwe thhath, you shhouwdn’th be wiwe thhath.” (Then I have to explain. Nadia is 200 years old. You’re much older than Jerion, but you just fight like that, you can’t be like that.) [I can’t…] Nadia bowed its head deeply. “Weww, then bothh of you have tho apowogize.” (Well, then both of you have to apologize.) “I don’th wanth tho…” (I don’t want to…) [I don’t want to…] Nadia and Jerion shook their heads. They admit they did something wrong, but they couldn’t apologize, so my expression became strict again. “If you fighth you shhouwd apowogize!” (If you fight you should apologize!) I placed the hand that had been slightly lowered on my waist again and looked at them sternly. Then Nadia and Jerion, who were looking at me with unfair eyes, soon nodded. […I’m sorry.] “…I’m shorry thoo” (…I’m sorry too.) “You’re noth going tho fighth anymore, are you?” (You’re not going to fight anymore, are you?) “Ung…” [Yes…] [I’m not going to fight anymore…] I put my hand down from my waist and looked at my father. My father managed to understand and dropped me to the floor. For some reason, he was smiling around his mouth. I approached Jerion and Nadia and hugged them tightly. “Good job.” “Hii.” [Hee.] Jerion quickly regained his energy and dug into my arms. Nadia’s tail shook. “I’ww give you more coowiesh becaushe you’re growing up thoday. Oway?” (I’ll give you more cookies because you’re growing up today. Okay?) “Reawwy?” (Really?) [Really?] “Of courshe!” (Of course!) “Kyaa!” [Kyaa!] That’s how the fight between the two ended. Later, they even shared cookies together. It was a happy ending. [There is a thing called mental age.] Driane sighed and said. “Pft.” At Driane’s words, my father burst into a small laugh. After that, I thought about why he laughed after that, but I still didn’t know why my father laughed.
