A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 120
“What? A total of 15,000 gold?”
Tie, who had returned to the manor, nodded to the astonished Veil.
Then she pulled out a handful of gold coins from the sack and held them out to Veil.
“Should I give some to you, big brother?”
Veil’s eyes widened.
But soon he waved his hands dismissively.
“No, it’s fine. I haven’t done anything all this time. Give me some later when I actually do something.”
“What do you mean you haven’t done anything? You’ve been adventuring with Tie from the Gateway all the way here.”
“Well, that’s true. But I was just relying on you the whole time. I even caused trouble at Kaldenbain-Ridge.”
Tie’s mouth fell open.
‘Veil is still blaming himself!’
Ever since he punched Reginald.
Veil had been dejected this whole time.
Whenever Reginald’s name came up, he would fidget and look at Tie anxiously before fleeing the scene.
“Tie kept saying it was okay…”
But no matter how much she told him it was fine, Veil couldn’t seem to regain his spirits.
Unable to help it, Tie was putting the gold coins back in her pouch when—
“Now our mercenary group finally has some real income, Astie.”
Nordics patted her head with a kind expression.
“Let’s think about how to use that money gradually. Since it’s such a large sum, we’ll need to consider where to store it too…”
“Ppyu!”
Just then.
Feeling something tapping her knee, Tie looked down.
At the end of her gaze was Ppupppu, pointing at the air with his trunk and staring with round eyes.
“Ppyurung-”
“Huh?”
The next moment, an exclamation burst from Enzo’s mouth.
A black hole had opened wide where Ppupppu was pointing with his trunk.
Tie, who realized what it was, shouted.
“It’s Akongang!”
Nordics, Veil, and Basto’s eyes widened.
Meanwhile, Ppupppu cheerfully climbed onto the sack containing the gold coins and pulled out one gold coin with his trunk.
Then he ran to the subspace and threw it inside.
“Waaah-!”
Tie hurriedly ran to the subspace that Ppupppu had created.
The child’s eyes sparkled as she peered inside.
“It’s an Akongang warehouse!”
“A warehouse?”
The unit members finally crowded around the subspace.
Inside the not-so-large entrance.
The single gold coin that Ppupppu had thrown in was indeed sparkling on the wooden floor.
“…Ppyu! Ppyurung.”
“He says if you put it here, no one can steal it. And you can take it out and use it whenever you need it.”
At Tie’s words, Nordics’ expression brightened.
“Really? That’s wonderful. Then we won’t need to rent a separate national vault.”
Usually, when nobles accumulated wealth, they would convert part of it into currency or pure gold and store it in national vaults.
But using a vault required paying enormous usage fees every year, and they needed a separate financial manager to simplify the procedures.
“It really was Krazaar…”
Meanwhile, Veil muttered beside them.
Basto nodded with a stern face.
“Yeah. I had a rough idea, but seeing it again like this…”
Krazaar, known to be extinct, was alive and well.
And in a harmless form, beside Tie, who was known as the Commander King.
“Is this really okay?”
Veil and Basto, now anxious, were exchanging glances again when—
“Enough, enough. It’s all in the past.”
Nordics smiled and cleared the air around them.
He picked up one sack, tied it tightly, and threw it into the subspace.
“Help move this.”
Basto and Veil began moving the remaining sacks of gold coins into the subspace.
Ppupppu enlarged the entrance of the subspace as if he had been waiting for this.
“By any chance, can people enter here too?”
Enzo, who had been watching, asked.
Tie smiled brightly.
“Yes. People can enter too.”
“Oh ho…”
“Now, now. If you’re all done, shouldn’t you have lunch?”
Just then, Marshal walked out from the dining area holding a large ladle.
Whatever she had been making, Marshal’s forehead was beaded with sweat.
“To celebrate Agabelt’s first profit, I made some meat pies and homemade sauce.”
“Wow, I was hungry. Thank you.”
Raul stood up with a bright face.
Enzo followed behind him.
Tie confirmed that the subspace had closed, then quickly lifted Ppupppu onto her shoulder.
“Lucarion! Let’s eat!”
When she called out, Lucarion slowly appeared from the 2nd floor stairs.
He was holding a book filled with more incomprehensible ancient characters.
‘What kind of book is it?’
Tie tilted her head curiously, then smiled cheerfully anyway.
Then she took Lucarion’s hand firmly and headed to the kitchen.
Having a home.
And having a family to live with in that home was a good thing, she thought.
The next day.
The Agabelt members gathered closely in front of the fireplace.
The 1st floor living room had a very cozy atmosphere with the soft carpet Marshal had laid out.
“It’s tonight.”
Veil, lying at the end of the 8-person sofa, muttered while looking at the ceiling.
“To think that I’d live to be invited to a Paladin’s house, and the Grand Master’s house at that…”
Raul, sitting on the carpet, also nodded.
“That’s right. It’s something I never did even when I was in the Paladins, but I never thought I’d do it after becoming a mercenary.”
“Come to think of it. Didn’t the Grand Master mention a specific time?”
Tie, who was holding a bear doll, looked up.
“Mm-hmm. He didn’t say a time, but the date is today.”
The date the Grand Master wanted to meet was when the second full moon would rise in the sky, counting from the day he and Tie met.
“The first full moon rose when we were in the Weapon District, and Nordics Grandfather said the second full moon rises today.”
“Then today is correct. They probably have their own intelligence network, so they’ll know we’ve established a base. Will they send someone at the right time?”
Just then.
Knock, knock, knock-
Clear knocking sounds came from the front door.
Basto and Veil, who had been leaning on the sofa, sat up.
Marshal, who was sitting on a chair next to the stairs, also opened her eyes wide.
But before the unit members could step forward.
“Wow!”
Tie, who had jumped up quickly, ran to the front of the door.
Then she shouted in an excited voice.
“This is Tie’s house! Who is it?”
After the following silence.
A youthful and proper answer came from beyond the door.
“I came from the mansion across the street.”
“Huh?”
Then the door opened.
With the doorway between them, Tie’s eyes widened.
That was because her mouth naturally fell open upon seeing the guest standing before her.
‘So pretty…’
A girl of the same age with her hair tied back stared at Tie with a prim expression.
Then her purple eyes sparkled like jewels.
“Are you the people who moved into this mansion yesterday?”
If this were Hanbit Kindergarten, she would definitely be a child from the same Quail Class.
“Well, um…”
Tie’s eyes wavered at the mature, gentle, and clear pronunciation that was unlike a child’s.
The girl continued speaking.
“I came to inform you that there’s a long-standing tradition on Rosewerbel Street. When a family moves in, it’s proper etiquette to at least show your face to the surrounding mansions and give greetings asking for their favor.”
Oh no.
Was there really a culture of distributing rice cakes when moving in Father’s hometown too?
While Tie was flustered, the girl crossed her arms.
Then for some reason, she asked primly.
“Are you Yeongae?”
“Huh…?”
“Is the owner of this mansion Yeongae?”
Tie unconsciously closed her mouth.
Regardless, the girl continued speaking.
“Coming out to the front door to greet guests is the owner’s role, but the fact that Yeongae came out.”
The girl stared directly at Tie.
“It means Yeongae is the owner of this mansion, right?”
Tie blinked blankly.
Then she thought.
‘Who is Yeongae…?’
This is Tie’s house though?
She could only wonder why the girl kept looking for someone called Yeongae.
Finally, Tie, who had been agonizing, hesitantly opened her mouth.
“Well, the owner here is Tie.”
“What?”
“Not Yeongae, but Ti, e.”
When Tie pointed to herself with an innocent face, the girl’s brow furrowed.
