章 2: Chapter – 1 Is it wrong to be a reincarnated demon baby in Another World?

A certain Castle – somewhere in the Belphegor Domain, Underworld

While it is true that adults from all walks of life have at least once in their lives wished to become children/babies again since they are so tired of something or the other in their lives be that their Social Circle, Work-Life balance, Taxes, Love & Sex, Gender identity, politics, and whatnot and want to escape all these problems by once again being a carefree child who is completely ignorant of these complex problems and doesn't have to worry about them, but have they ever questioned what it's like to be a baby again?

Contrary to what the majority might expect, the life of a baby is not all Sunshine and rainbows. There is a multitude of problems that a newborn baby has to deal with on a regular basis and that too multiple times a day that an adult doesn't even have to be very concerned about!

Don't believe it? Try being a baby once and wait till you poop or pee your diapers just because your body isn't developed enough to be able to control your bowel movement! And if shitting your pants isn't embarrassing enough, you have to cry or wait till an adult, in most cases a woman notices that you have pooped or peed your pants and changes your clothes as well as cleans you.

Tell me what's harder and more problematic… the inability to control bowel movement or dealing with gender identity stuff?

I would bet a dozen milk teeth that the answer is… the inabi–okay fine, it's dealing with gender identity stuff, but that does not mean that having to shit your diapers because of the inability to control bowel movement is not any less problematic!

"There, it's clean now… you can rest easy, Lord Seir…" spoke a brown-haired bespectacled woman with a kind and loving smile. She was wearing a French maid uniform.

'Fortunately, I am still a baby and can't speak or move too much… otherwise, I would want to commit suicide out of embarrassment every time mother, elder sister, Élise, or some other maid changes my clothes and cleans my baby ass after I shit or pee in my pants!'

If you were thinking that problems faced by a newborn baby are dealt with already after the pee and poop stuff, then you are sorely mistaken… there's more where that came from.

The next problem that a newborn baby has to deal with is frequent hunger, just like now…

"Here you go, Lord Seir… it's time for a meal…" said Élise as she loosened her dress and brought out her left breast which she carefully put into Seir's mouth for him to suckle on it for milk.

'Itadakimasu…' Seir expressed his gratefulness for the meal, then began to drink milk from Élise tit while thinking to himself, 'Hmm, I wonder when mother would be back… she mentioned something about Council or whatever… and sister is also preparing for some kind of game, don't know when she'd be free… ahh, forget it, let's focus on the nips for now…'

Some unreliable stats state that on average newborn babies tend to breastfeed somewhere between 8 to 12 times per day, or even more frequently. Human science says that this frequent breastfeeding pattern is essential for ensuring that the baby receives enough nourishment and antibodies.

But different from the stats and science, Seir is breastfed somewhere between twenty to twenty-five times per day on average.

'Have the days become longer than twenty-three hours, fifty-six minutes, and four seconds or is it just my horny side kicking in?'

Since it's breastfeeding, naturally, there's nipple sucking… If you are a man, you have got to love breasts. Sure, you can be an ass lover, thighs lover, or even an underarm lover (kinda weird fetish, to be honest), but you can't deny that you don't have an ounce of love for boobs. No matter how minimal that love may be, every man loves boobs, hence comes the possibility of the horny side taking control. But yes, the horny side only comes into play when Seir is being breastfed by women other than Sephie. For some reason, he never thinks about horny stiff while Sephie breastfeeds him, however, whenever other women including maids so generously task their tits with the responsibility of quenching the hunger of their young lord, things become rather peculiar and moany.

As for the case of his elder sister, well, things are a bit weird there so let's skip her for now and keep focusing on the maids.

On the topic of maids, many maids are working for Mal and Sephie, the count probably even reaches a number as absurd as several hundred, though Seir can't be sure since he has never had the opportunity to count the exact number personally. However, the sight of all the maids and butlers in the castle assembled together while the Chief Butler and Head Maid delegate tasks to them is a sight burned into his memory, as such, he believes the count to be several hundred, at least.

'Hundreds of maids and butlers working for my parents… it seems I really do belong to a very powerful and rich family…' He has indeed noticed many things about this family of his that make him wonder what kind of people they are. Multi-billionaire? Nobility? Royalty? It's hard to determine with the little information he has gathered up until now… But one weird detail Seir has noticed is the quirky hair color of the people around him.

Soon after his baby eyes developed and he began perceiving all kinds of colors, he realized that very few people like Élise's have a normal hair color since her hair is black, but that's not the case for quite a few people in the castle.

Not talking about the others, Sephie's and Roygun's hair color is very weird… how many people have natural cherry-blossom-colored hair?

'I would think none…'

There are also maids with very weird Hair Colors ranging from different shades of blue, purple, orange, green, and whatnot… Noticing all these different hair colors that normally do not exist, Seir realized that either these people are very quirky, or there's another reason for them to have such biologically impossible hair colors.

People with biologically impossible hair colors aren't the only strange detail Seir has noticed. There are other critical observations he must consider—ones tied directly to his father and elder sister.

For one, Seir's father clearly isn't human. His red skin is a glaring indication. After all, what human has red skin?

'Even Trump's skin wasn't as red as Father's, there's no way he's human.'

While Seir briefly entertained the possibility of a rare skin condition, the evidence stacked against that theory. The pair of crimson horns jutting from his father's head, black sclera in the eyes, and the red tail swishing behind him dispelled any hope of normalcy. Even if the red skin could be explained away, what about the pair of horns, black sclera, and tail?

Honestly, his father looked far less like a human and far more like a demon.

Or maybe he is an alien with that kind of physical features? After all, it wouldn't be so strange for an alien to have that kind of skin color, horns, ears, and tail, right?

I mean, just look at Na'vi people in the Avatar series; they look pretty inhuman, and they are aliens.

But what difference does that make if he is a demon or an alien? After all, he isn't a normal indigenous human from Earth anymore, that's for sure.

As for his elder sister, she doesn't have red skin or a tail, and at first glance, she appears human—if you ignore her pointed ears and the unusual sakura-colored hair she inherited from Sephie.

However, she also has a pair of horns, though their design differs from Malakarion's.

Even so, her pointed ears, biologically inexplicable hair color, and horns—traits no human could possess—are enough to suggest that, no matter how breathtakingly beautiful she is, she's probably not human.

The only one who looks convincingly human is Sephie—provided you disregard her sakura-colored hair. Yet, there's something about her that keeps Seir questioning her humanity: she looks far too young for her age.

Although Seir doesn't know Sephie's exact age, he assumes that since his elder sister appears to be in her twenties, Sephie must be at least in her mid-forties, at least. Despite that, she doesn't look a day older than her early twenties.

Maintaining oneself well and appearing younger than you are is one thing, but Sephie's case feels entirely unnatural.

This might suggest that Sephie isn't human, either.

The implications don't stop there. As the child of Malakarion and Sephie, Seirios knows he's likely not human himself. After all, he has a pair of horns and a tail like his father, and ears similar to his elder sister.

Even so, whether or not he's a demon isn't something that troubles Seir much. As long as he doesn't have his father's red skin, he's all good. Yeah, Seir definitely didn't want to have that unnaturally reddish skin color, and, thankfully, skin and sclera resemble his mother giving him a somewhat human-like appearance.

In any case, adapting to a father with red skin and horns was challenging at first, but now it doesn't bother him in the slightest. The fact that his parents and sister might not be human doesn't matter to him. They treat him with love and care, and that's all that's important. Everything else feels irrelevant.

Of course, not being human might carry consequences he'll only uncover in the future. But for now, it doesn't concern him, and he doesn't see a reason to care.

And well… putting aside his inhuman lineage for a while, the frequent hunger problem can be described as both a bane and a boon. Bane because a baby has to rely on others to feed him, boon because he gets to suckle on women's tits.

'Yup, it's my horny side kicking in probably…' After all, the soul inside the baby is that of a man in his twenties!

While it's possible that it's his horny mindset prompting him to drink more milk from women's tits, it did make Seir muse of another oddity… 'How come so many of them are lactating around the same time?'

When several hundred maids are working for your parents, it's not at all surprising if a few of them were also pregnant around the same time as your mother and therefore, they can produce breast milk… but if that count reaches several dozens, then you have to ponder, 'Has science mad such incredible progress?'

As per Seir's observations, there is no other newborn baby in the Castle. If there was another baby in the castle, it would have been brought around him already for the baby to become a play partner, but that did not happen, and he doesn't think that the maids who breastfeed him were pregnant around the same time as Sephie, in fact, he doesn't think that either of them was pregnant at all. All of them look so youthful and carefree; they don't act like they are mothers of newborns like Sephie does. Giving birth and becoming a mother of a child seems to bring a sort of maturity in a woman, it's like a dependable and caring vibe they give off that most maids in the castle don't seem to carry around them. Instead, all they ever do is fawn over him as if he is the cutest thing in the world, play with him, and let him suckle on their breasts all he wants.

While Seir certainly enjoys these things, he has to wonder, 'Perhaps some kind of magic that allows women to artificially produce breast milk?'

Since demonic-looking beings exist within the castle, the existence of Magic and mystic can't be denied, right? And honestly, Seir has already noticed the existence of magic, or to word it more accurately, the existence of supernatural powers that can't be explained with his scientific logic.

In his opinion, such forms of supernatural Powers that enable the people of the Castle to perform incredibly unnatural and unscientific feats can only be categorized as Magic.

When and how did Seir discover it, for that, we would have to go back a few moons.

Flashback: Start

"Seir dear… Mommy is going to meet her old friends… be a good boy and don't create trouble for Cecily, okay?" said Sephie as she adjusted her dress having just breastfed her son, then she gently kissed him on the forehead, which made the boy giggle joyfully.

Sephie smiled, and after once again caressing Seir's hair, she got up holding him in his arms, and spoke to the maids in the room, "Alright girls, I have fed him, so there's no problem for a while, but make sure to feed him as per the schedule… I should be back before midnight, during that time, I shall leave my Seir in your care!"

One of the maids in the room immediately puffed her nonexistent breasts forward and spoke confidently, "Rest assured, Lady Sephie… I shall watch over Lord Seir…!"

Before Sephie could give any response, another maid in the room snickered at her, "Are you sure you wouldn't let your clumsy side take over and make some kind of mistake, flatboard?"

The first maid was immediately offended and looked coldly at the maid mocking her, "Huh? What did you say, you cow?"

"Better than being a flat board…" giggled the second maid as she proudly lifted her assets by folding her arms underneath her breasts, and said, "At least, I have got a good size to feed Lord Seir if he gets hungry… if it's you, you won't even be able to feed him those nonexistent breasts…"

'There's no need to fight… while it's true that I prefer bigger boobs… smaller ones have their own charm, so I'd suck on both of your tits without any problem…'

The first maid spoke coldly, "Shut it cow, being flat doesn't mean I can't produce milk… I can do that just fine and better than you… Besides, you should probably stay away from Lord Seir, and refrain from ever feeding him, otherwise, you'd rub off your bimboness on our young Lord, and we don't want that!"

The second maid was takenaback, "What? Bimboness?" and suddenly, the temperature in the room started to increase, "What did you just say you cold-blooded snake?"

In response to the increasing temperature, suddenly, a freezing chill appeared in the room as the first maid spoke, "Exactly as you heard, you bimbo!"

"That's it… let's settle this once and for all, I will show you your place flatboard!" spoke the second maid as dozens of fire arrows suddenly materialized around her.

"If it's a fight you want, then it's a fight you will get, cow!" responded the first maid coldly as dozens of ice arrows started to materialize around her.

'Did Sheetal and Agni just create Fire arrows and Ice arrows around her? Am I hallucinating? No, but the heat and cold are very real… I am not mistaken, they are really creating fire and ice around him! Holy shit! How in the God–ouch why did my head hurt suddenly? No, that's not the important thing at the moment… the important thing is the fact that Sheetal and Agni created Fire and Ice around them… and no one in the room is surprised…'

Just as both Sheetal and Agni were ready to duke it out, both of them had their ears twisted by Cecily as she asked them in a gloomy tone, "What do the two of you think you are doing? Is that how you are supposed to behave… and that too before my Lady and Lord Seir?"

Both the maids looked at the head maid of the castle in absolute dread and apologized immediately, "We are sorry madam…"

Cecily scolded Sheetal and Agni with a cold snort, "Humph, apologize to my Lady for your inexcusable behavior…"

The two maids immediately turned to Sephie, and apologized with a bow, "We are sorry my Lady…"

Sephie smiled, "It's alright, but make sure not to do anything of this sort the next time, understand?" For her, both Sheetal and Agni are small children, so she isn't bothered by something so small. Of course, that doesn't mean she would interfere with Cecily rebuking them, as that would mean her interfering in her duty as the Head Maid of the Castle.

"We promise, thank you, my Lady!" both Sheetal and Agni expressed their gratefulness to Sephie for her benevolence.

Cecily continued, "Now go to your rooms and wait for me to decide on your punishments for misbehavior and disrespect to our masters…"

The two maids bowed lightly and excused themselves.

Sephie smiled helplessly as she watched Sheetal and Agni exit the room, then spoke to Cecily, "Don't be too hard on them… they are still only teenage girls, it's normal for children of that age to act on their impulses…"

Cecily bowed lightly, "As you wish my Lady…"

Sephie nodded approvingly, then said, "As for taking care of Seir in my absence… Honestly, I wanted Roygun to watch over Seir. Unfortunately, her game hasn't concluded for the past week… it's still going on… sigh… this one is probably one of the longest-running games ever!"

Cecily immediately responded, "I shall watch over the young Lord myself… and if I have something to do, then I shall have Élise take care of our young Lord…"

"Alright, with you and Élise watching over my boy… I can rest assured…"

Flashback: End

That was just the first instance, later, Seir went on to confirm the existence of magic on multiple occasions which made him realize again and again that he was no longer living in the World he knew before his death.

'The concept of Magic is really real? Does that mean I have been reborn into a different world and not the Earth I remember? A different World in which supernatural phenomena such as pyrokinesis, cryokinesis, hydrokinesis, and aerokinesis exist? A different world in which people that look like demons exist?'

Figuring out such a thing only a few weeks after being reborn as a baby was certainly a shocker for Seir, and naturally, he wanted to see if he too could perform these supernatural phenomena, he was curious.

While it's true that curiosity often kills the cat, he was still willing to give in to his curiosity since the satisfaction from satiating the curiosity is also enough to bring the cat back to life, but that's where the next problem a newborn baby often faces comes into the picture.

If you are a newborn baby, especially if you are born into a very powerful family that might either be Multi-Billionaires or some kind of nobility or perhaps even royalty capable of employing hundreds of servants including maids, butlers, chefs, guards, gardeners, and whatnot in their castle, you realize that you would always have someone watching over you no matter what you are doing to the point that there's no privacy!

Even a newborn baby needs some privacy to secretly try and imitate the supernatural phenomena he/she discovered to create a similar effect such as creating fire arrows and ice arrows, but no… the maids don't understand this problem at all, they just want to fawn over him all the damn time and squeal at how cute he/she looks no matter what he does.

"So cute~"

"He is sleeping… Lord Seir looks so adorable~"

"Oh, look he peed his pants… ahh… but he is so cute~"

"Look… Lord Seir just burped out the milk he drank a moment ago… he looks so endearing~"

'Who the fuck looks endearing while burping out milk?' Seir wanted to scream at the maid, it's a pity that he is incapable of speaking at all! Although very angry, he could only take out his frustration on nips.

"Mmm~ Lord Seir is a little too vigorous today... maybe he is very hungry… he is such a darling~"

Putting aside the cute problem… okay wait, being always called cute is also a problem, I mean come on, just how adorable am I to be called cute at every turn?

'That's it… I must make sure that people stop calling me cute all the time… when I grow up, I must develop such a body that they will be calling me daddy!' Just as Seir had such a thought, a bluish Magic Circle appeared on the floor of his room, and from the magic circle the familiar figures materialized, "We are back…"

Realizing that Mal and Sephie were back, Seir stopped drinking milk and turned to look at his parents.

Élise immediately adjusted her maid uniform using magic to not appear disrespectful toward her masters, then while holding Seir in her arms, she got up and bowed, "Welcome back Lord Malakarion… Lady Sephie…"

The Lord and Lady Belphegor smiled lightly and walked toward their son, "Did our Seir create any trouble?"

Élise shook her head, "No my Lady… Lord Seir has always been very well behaved…"

"I see…" chuckled Mal as Sephie took her son in her arms, then spoke, "Seir… how were you my baby… did you miss mommy?"

"And what about daddy? Did you miss Daddy?" Mal also asked while bringing his finger closer to his son's face.

"Aaaabaaa waa…" while mumbling random baby noises that don't even make any sense in any language translator, Seir lifted his hands and held Mal's finger as he started to play with it like a baby would.

Sigh, the life of a newborn baby is not easy, but… it's also worth it if you have loving and caring people around you, and it's definitely not wrong to be a reincarnated demon baby in another world.
