A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 111
Inside the carriage.
Lucalion stared at Tie sitting across from him with a sullen expression.
For a while now, Tie had been leaning against the wall humming a tune.
“Love is frozen radish~”
Veil muttered at the incomprehensible lyrics.
“What’s with all this freezing stuff since earlier? Child, do you even know what love is?”
“Yes!”
Seeing Tie’s bright expression, Veil let out a hollow laugh.
“Know what? Play house twice and you’ll probably say you’re getting married too, huh?”
Tie’s sparkling green eyes instantly widened.
“Tie is really going to get married though?”
“Hahaha!”
Nordics, who had been listening, burst into hearty laughter.
He smiled kindly and asked.
“Astie. Do you want to get married when you grow up?”
“Yeeees!”
At her spirited answer, Raul and Enzo turned their heads with curious faces.
Tie hugged the bear doll Orb she was holding, then puffed out her chest and answered.
“When Tie gets married later, I’m going to wear a princess dress.”
“A princess dress?”
“Yes! And two of them! For the procession dress, I’ll wear one with fluttery things at the bottom, and when greeting people, I decided to wear a mammoth dress!”
“Mamm, what?”
“A mammoth dress!”
Seeing the unit members looking bewildered, Tie tilted her head inwardly.
Come to think of it, wasn’t it a mammoth dress?
Anyway.
The child’s eyes sparkled again.
“Then my spouse and I will live together for a really, really long time.”
It was a surprisingly detailed plan for something made by a four-year-old.
Raul, who had exchanged glances with the unit members, asked.
“But Danzu, where did you learn all that?”
Tie immediately put on a dignified expression.
“I heard the mothers talking at the playground. And marriage appears in fairy tale books and on TV too.”
“TV?”
“Yes! But…”
Tie unconsciously closed her mouth.
Suddenly, several wedding scenes she had seen on TV flashed through her mind.
Marriage on TV was, how should she put it.
Amazing in a different sense from what appeared in Disney animations or fairy tales.
Tie opened her mouth with a serious voice.
“When the groom cheats and they get divorced, then they get married again. Then the first wife cries a lot.”
Everyone’s eyes widened, but Tie shrugged her shoulders and continued.
“Then they grab each other’s hair like this and go, ‘Hey! Did you steal my husband!’ ‘Ohoho! You should have managed your husband properly!’ and fight.”
Raul, who had choked, coughed awkwardly.
Veil added as if dumbfounded.
“Wh-what the hell is this TV that teaches you such dirty love affairs, huh?”
Tie stared at Veil as if asking how he didn’t know such things.
“Oppa. It didn’t teach me, it showed me. And TV having lots of problems isn’t exactly news.”
After that, she imitated 107 Grandmother’s way of speaking as if to say don’t even get her started.
“The world these days, I tell you…”
When Tie shrugged her shoulders and started humming again, the unit members fell silent.
The child was once again looking out the window with a bright face.
At this moment, the sky was wonderfully clear.
‘Even when we arrived at Adelin’s village, it was raining.’
Now even the chilly weather had cleared up, and it wasn’t cold even with the window open.
‘Now just three more nights until Jedo!’
Thinking this, Tie giggled with joy.
Before leaving Kaldenbain-Ridge, Basto had said.
‘Food, drinking water. We’ve prepared everything we need and Veil has recovered, so we plan to depart immediately.’
‘Waaah!’
‘If we travel without rest, we should arrive within four days.’
Hearing those words, Tie’s heart had beaten so hard she was startled.
It had already been quite a while since she came to this world with Kamang’s help.
She had stopped counting the days, but it was certain that at least thirty, no, well over forty nights had passed.
‘But now I just need to go to Jedo, visit the Grand Master’s house, and check the Paladin organization chart.’
Then she would finally be able to learn what Father’s real name was.
Where Father was now would also be revealed.
‘When I meet Father again… Father won’t recognize Tie though.’
But that was okay.
She would be starting over from the beginning with Father in this world anyway.
Tie promised herself not to be sad about such things anymore.
Originally, all relationships require time.
Even making new friends at preschool was like that, so how much more so this?
Her heart beat rapidly.
‘107 Grandmother said if you do things one by one slowly, everything works out.’
So Tie would live courageously.
While taking care of the unit members as a mercenary, until the day she could tell Father the whole truth!
The child hugged her bear doll tightly and rested her chin by the window.
Her rosy cheeks were filled with anticipation.
Meanwhile, at the Central Branch of Jedo’s Reward Office.
“What’s this?”
Director Ornel, who had been reviewing documents from the eastern region, furrowed his brow.
In his hand was a sheet of paper with the word Agabert written on it.
“What are these guys that their predicted ranking rose this much? From 39th to 12th place.”
Mercenary groups with such steeply rising rankings were rare.
Even when Trevaga was at its peak, it wasn’t to this extent.
Ornel eventually stubbed out the cigar he was smoking on a flowerpot stand.
Then he waved the document above his head.
“Remi. If there are supplementary documents for this, bring them over.”
At those words, someone poked their head out from between the bookshelves across the room.
It was a young woman with dark circles under her eyes and disheveled hair.
“Agabert supplementary documents… Just a moment, where did I put those.”
The woman, who had been peering around this desk and that desk, made an “Ah!” sound.
She inserted the paper she found into a document folder and brought it to Ornel.
“It came directly from headquarters this morning, so it must have been missed.”
On the paper she held out, the Empire’s emblem was stamped large and clear.
This meant the document had been reviewed by none other than Commander Luminen, who oversees the entire Empire.
“Let’s see, Empire headquarters official document. Document number 3393…”
Ornel’s eyes grew serious.
Indeed.
The document contained information about Agabert’s rank promotion.
However, among all the content, one particular word caught his attention.
“Krazaru?”
Krazaru was an ancient monster that had supposedly given even Valentis Luminen trouble for five whole days long ago, wasn’t it?
But such a monster had been revived, and
“The Sorcerer King eliminated it alone…?”
At those muttered words, a subordinate who had been turning away froze in place.
It wasn’t just Remi.
Everyone at the Central Branch who had been busy with work turned to stare at Ornel.
Ornel calmly continued reading the document.
“The headquarters has reached a conclusion regarding the recent controversial ‘subspace occurrence’ and ‘ancient monster reappearance incident’ based on thorough review and reports from related agencies…”
[The headquarters has defined this incident as ‘the revival of the ancient monster Krazaru.’
The one who handled and resolved this matter was the Sorcerer King (alias) of ‘Agabert,’ and this action is classified as an individual large-scale Mastone siege.
The Compensation Office (Central Branch) shall implement rank changes for ‘Agabert’ according to headquarters’ instructions.]
Ornel gulped.
He hesitantly picked up Agabert’s documents again.
On the papers.
The number displayed next to “Rank Change for This Quarter” was clearly visible.
“From 39 to 12.”
He stared blankly at the paper.
Was this even possible?
If it was possible, then their growth rate was faster than even ‘Trevaga’s.’
Ornel finally picked up his official seal with a dazed expression after a long while.
Soon the sound of stamping the seal on the signature line echoed throughout the office.
It was the moment when Astie’s ‘Sincing Mercenary Corps’ Agabert secured 12th place in the continental rankings.
And four days later.
Under the night sky of the Realm Core with a bright moon rising.
Agabert’s carriage bounced along the paved road.
