Hilda glared at me with a cold expression and spoke.
"I won't let you adopt him."
She then turned to Oga and sucker-punched him in the face. He staggered as blood came out of his nose. She shook her head as she spoke in a disgusted tone.
"I was right in thinking that you are not fit for master."
Oga dropped his head low. I could sense that he was feeling immense guilt. He clutched his hand and a determined expression came upon it.
I hid my snicker, even if he gets the resolution to take care of Lil Zoro, in the end, he will still be mine. So it's better if he gets resolution, I will have fun breaking him even more.
I pretended to frown at Hilda.
"Are you his mom?"
She gazed at me with a cold expression not hiding her hostility.
"The prince is my master."
I made an expression of realization and nodded to myself.
"Then do I need to marry you to become his father?"
"Huh....?"
"...."
"...."
"I said do I nee-"
Hilda ignored me and picked Lil Zoro carrying him like a sandbag. What she didn't notice was that slowly tears started to come into his eyes.
Oga looked at me with shock. There were various expressions on his face and all of them turned into a dumbfounded ones. He clenched his fists tighter and looked at me with a grim expression.
I smirked secretly and made the most pitiful, heartbreaking expression I could. My expression is what a man would have if miraculously he was giving birth to a child.
Lil Zoro's tears increased upon seeing my pitiful expression. It didn't take much time for me to start the countdown.
3...
2..
1..
He should cry now.
....anytime.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Good boi, I will give you a chocolate milkshake to drink.
Wait...
NO!
Son of a hot demon!
Electricity sparked out, a huge burst of it. Smoke covered the entire place. Many were coughing, it was a bit too much.
I looked around and noticed some people lying down on the floor paralyzed.
Maybe I shouldn't have done too intense of an acting.
Oh well, nothing happened to me so it's fine. Hilda looked shocked at the kid who was continuously crying and releasing shocks. Beel had never once cried in her arms before so this was a new feeling for her.
I shook my head and walked towards Hilda and ordered.
"Pass that kid to me."
Subconsciously she gave Beelzebub to me. When she realized what she did and followed orders, she was astounded with a hint of anger upon her visage.
To her, it must be a shame since her master is supposed to be Little Zoro.
As soon as the kid came into my arms, he stopped crying and peeked at me with a curious expression.
Many people looked relieved while Oga seemed devastated, after all, he has just made a resolution, and even now he didn't help Lil Zoro.
The little kid then started to giggle in my arms. I felt surprised. His laughing face is quite annoying, makes me want to punch him.
Now that I think... I do want to test it out. Will he cry if I punch him, he is a demon prince after all?
Stupid question, he is a crybaby... so he will probably cry.
Sigh, let's not do anything to the child for now.
I showed him my red noble eyes and he instantly started laughing even more. He rushed towards my face and started to pull my cheeks.
I laughed at his antics, not from joy. I held the kid in my arms and made him fly like an airplane as all fathers do to kids when they are young.
After doing all that cutesy shit, it was time for the final question.
"Lil Zoro. Tell me. Who do you want as a father? That guy wearing worn-out clothes or me?"
I didn't forget to whisper in his ears.
"I'll show you even cooler stuff and will give you a lot of chocolate milkshake."
The kid didn't even hesitate. He hugged me instantly. What a merciless guy, he didn't even care what Oga would think. To be fair, it was Oga who abandoned him first by hesitating.
Hilda was jaw-slacked and Oga was on the verge of tears. He didn't expect this to happen just after him making a resolve.
I smiled at the two of them.
"It seems that this child wants me as his father."
Hilda had a frowning expression. Oga stared at Hilda with anticipation, peeking at her expressions from time to time.
Just as Oga grew his balls and was going to speak something, I interrupted him.
"As you see. I am very rich. I will give him the best meals for his health, a luxurious house to live in and blah blah blah...."
Oga closed his mouth and his clenched hands lost their strength. His head dropped low but not before glancing at Little Zoro once. All he saw was a smiling kid.
He felt sad but happy at the same time. At least Beel would have a better life and would never have to ever worry about anything.
He glanced at Hilda and could not help but cower. She had already made a decision, it could be seen from her determined expression.
She glanced at Oga and couldn't help but look at him with disdain. She felt disgusted, I could feel it. A demon prince's father, a p*ssy is what he more is. I could sense that she was thinking something over the lines of that.
She then turned to look at Beelzebub who was smiling and laughing while playing with me. A wry smile crept onto her face that soon turned into an emotionless one.
"I accept."
"Marrying me?"
She glanced at me with a disgusted face.... well... compared to the one she showed to Oga, this was a thousand times tame.
"No. You becoming master's father."
I raised my eyebrows at her answer. They always say 'no' the first time.
"Sure."
She glanced at me with a pondering expression and then Beel who was giggling happily. A warm smile etched her face. A smile she never ever showed Oga, he probably is turning green right now.
"It seems that you will be a good father."
I smiled kindly at her.
"Of course... I will probably be the best father in the world."
