Volume 1 Chapter 1: The Young Master Is Strange

“Madam! Push!” On a dark night, the doctor yelled out to a woman in labor. The woman’s expression was distorted as she screamed in pain. On each side were maids grasping her arms, trying their best to hold her down.

The doctor continued to shout,

“We can see the head!” After a few minutes, the sounds of a baby crying were heard. The baby was finally born. The doctor exclaimed,

“It’s a boy!” The doctor cleaned the baby and wrapped a cloth around him. As he did this, the baby blinked his eyes.

So, this is the world I’m reincarnated in!

Luis stared in marvel at the world he was born in. One glance around the room, and he could tell it was expensive! How much does it cost?!

As he wondered, the doctor placed the boy beside his mother. The mother stared down at her baby. Her eyes displayed her exhaustion from giving birth.

For Luis, his expression turned bright.

So beautiful! That was the only word to describe her. The woman’s hair was a two-toned color of platinum gold. Her eyes were bright green, resembling emeralds. Her facial features were delicate and soft.

The only blemish was the monotone expression she had.

Is this my mother? Luis couldn’t believe someone so beautiful would be his mother. A small smile formed on his face as he stared at her. But the same couldn’t be said about her.

A frown formed as she questioned, “What is he doing?” She was perplexed as to what was wrong with his expression.

The maids stared at him, “I don’t know either, Madam.” The same could be said about them. They couldn’t understand what was wrong with the child.

“I think he’s smiling.” The doctor explained.

Yeah, I’m smiling. Is there a problem? Luis didn’t think it was one. Do babies not smile in this world? It was odd their reactions were like this.

“Madam, what is the name of your child?” The doctor asked. The mother calmly declared,

“His name shall be Keith.”

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

What is going on?! Keith screamed in his mind. Everything felt so surreal to him.

He was born into a new family.

It wasn’t an ordinary family either. The fantasy world he was born into followed the European noble system.

And Keith was born into a Marquis family! He was the fourth son of Marquis William Freed.

Keith would have been excited by this news. But he was too focused on something else. Am I going to keep seeing this? He was stuck in a crib, and the only thing he saw was the ceiling.

It had been a month since he was born.

And he had nothing to do. There were maids on the side. But they stood there without doing anything. They did the most minimal actions, such as feeding and changing him.

After all of that, they would stand on the sidelines, watching over him.

Is someone going to help me?! He wasn’t some zoo animal! Keith tried to move around. When he tried, he only jiggled.

But that was enough.

“The young master is calling for us.” One of the maids heard the rustling sound coming from the crib.

“May. Go deal with the young master.” The head maid, Gloria, ordered a maid.

The maid walked up to Keith’s crib. The girls had shoulder-length hair. Her auburn-red hair resembled maple leaves during fall. Her eyes were chestnut brown and beautiful.

Seeing her, Keith was happy. May! He said her name. But what she heard was,

“Mgah!” Baby mumbles came out of Keith’s mouth.

“...” Keith wanted to cry at this moment.

Darn it! Curse my baby mouth! One downside of reincarnating was he couldn’t talk! This was definitely going to be a challenge of a lifetime.

May picked Keith up, “Young Master, be more silent. It’s nap time.” Her words only caused Keith to frown.

I’m not tired! I want to see the world! Keith looked at the window behind May.

He was stuck in his crib for too long. He wanted to see the outside world. The only things he did were sleep, eat, and sleep again.

“Young Master, you are too young to go outside.” May noticed Keith eyeing outside. But she quickly denied it.

Not fair!

“Babu Abbu!” Keith’s mouth made gibberish. It was something that could have stunned people due to the cuteness.

But not May.

Her expression was calm as she placed Keith into the crib again. She pulled the blanket up, “Get some sleep, Young Master.”

This world is strange. That line was cemented into Keith’s head. Something was really off with this world. These people did not show much emotion. It wasn’t because they weren’t angry or sad or happy.

It was as if that was their default emotion.

He found that odd. It was as if their faces were stuck in that position. What should I do?

That’s it! A thought came into his mind! He was a baby! What do they do? They act cute and make people smile!

After Keith went to sleep, May stepped out of the room. The young master is odd. She found Keith strange.

She had been put as Keith’s personal maid for a week now.

That short time alone was enough for her to brand Keith with the word weird. The baby was only a month old. But it seemed he understood every word coming out of her mouth.

The strangest thing about the baby was the expression on his face. It reminded her of flowers blooming.

Whatever the case, I will continue to act appropriately. She was a maid, and her duty was to watch over Keith.
