A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 138

 

Veil answered nonchalantly.

 

“That’s right. They won’t live much longer. At most, maybe they’ll last about 2 minutes?”

 

“2 minutes?! Did you just say 2 minutes?!”

 

Rea and Helga shot up to their feet.

 

“Ugh… urgh…”

 

The collapsed servants began writhing with all their strength.

 

Helga rushed forward urgently.

 

“D-don’t do this. Please give us the antidote! Are you really planning to kill everyone? Seriously?”

 

But Tie just shrugged her shoulders with an indifferent expression.

 

Rea, growing anxious, ran up to Tie.

 

“C-can a mercenary group really do this? Can a mercenary group that protects people from monsters just harm people like this?!”

 

“Huh? The Tie Mercenary Group didn’t do anything bad though?”

 

“That’s nonsense! If this isn’t harming people, then what is it!”

 

“But we just put poison darts in the cart. Someone came and touched them without permission, so the poison darts went off…”

 

Helga couldn’t argue back and closed her mouth.

 

Then Rea beside her screamed out.

 

“W-what did we do so terribly wrong! As servants, is it such a great sin to act coldly because we found the young lady we serve a bit annoying?!”

 

Tie, who had been quietly watching this scene, muttered to herself as if amazed.

 

“Wow, the person who farted is really getting angry…!”

 

“Ugh, urgh!”

 

Just then, urgent screams came from behind.

 

There, the Maid Steward was letting out strange groans.

 

The Maid Steward sent desperate looks toward Helga and Rea as if telling them to come over.

 

When the two people crouched down on the floor, the Maid Steward moved her lips saying something.

 

The faces of Helga and Rea, who understood those words, darkened.

 

Soon they approached Tie again.

 

“O-okay! We were completely wrong! So please give us the antidote! It’s almost been 2 minutes!”

 

But Tie answered firmly.

 

“No way. I’ll give the antidote only after the servants return all of Selina’s things they stole.”

 

The child moved her preschool bag to the front as if showing it off.

 

Then she took out the antidote from inside and waved it in front of the two people.

 

“First return Selina’s mom and dad’s things, and give all the money you have to Selina too.”

 

“Urgh…!”

 

Those sprawled out let out groans.

 

However, Tie just smiled wickedly like a boss she had seen in movies.

 

‘Hmph. Tie isn’t stupid.’

 

If these people had stolen valuables from Selina’s family’s house, what they would have done with them was obvious.

 

They would have sold them to turn them into money.

 

Though it was infuriating and unfair, these people had probably already spent most of that money.

 

“If you don’t like that, then all you bad servants can go to heaven together!”

 

“Urgh! Uwaaah!”

 

Pleas for help mumbled out from the Maid Steward’s mouth.

 

She sent her gaze to Helga and Rea again.

 

Helga and Rea, who had been anxiously biting their nails, glanced at Tie and said frantically.

 

“If you really insist on that, actually there are some valuables we accidentally picked up from the manor in our dormitory…”

 

“If you lie to Tie or hide things, you’ll go to heaven then too.”

 

“Th-there’s some in the underground storage too! And in the n-national vault we borrowed under the young lady’s name…!”

 

Veil stretched.

 

“Now we’re finally having a conversation. Then we should check first, right? If even one more thing you embezzled comes out, you’ll die by our Commander King’s hand?”

 

The servants trembled violently.

 

“O-okay! Th-then now you’ll give us the antidote…”

 

“Noble child. You come with me. We need to check the dormitory and underground storage they mentioned. I don’t know the structure of this manor well.”

 

Selina hesitantly took Veil’s hand.

 

“Wh-where are you going? You have to give the antidote before you leave…!”

 

Just then, Tie shouted cheerfully.

 

“Ppupppu! Akongang evolution!”

 

As soon as Ppupppu heard its name called, it spun its trunk round and round to create a subspace in the air.

 

Tie then looked at Lucalion.

 

“Lucalion, let’s put these people in the Akongang!”

 

Lucalion nodded and swiftly raised his hand.

 

Then Helga, Rea, and the paralyzed servants floated up into the air.

 

“Aaah! What, what are you doing?! What about the antidote?!”

 

“Urgh!! Urghhhh!”

 

Despite the chaotic screaming, Tie just laughed.

 

Then after glancing once at the panicking servants.

 

“Ppupppu, close it!”

 

She immediately began closing the subspace.

 

“H-hey-!!”

 

“No-!”

 

Tie watched the closing subspace with satisfaction, then at the last moment stuck her tongue out at them.

 

Then she crossed her arms and laughed like a syndicate boss once more.

 

“Muhaha!”

 

The paralysis poison from the poison darts lasts for 10 hours without an antidote.

 

This meant the servants would have to tremble in fear of dying for the next 10 hours without an antidote.

 

“An eye for an eye. A butt for a butt! Umhahahaha!”

 

Tie’s booming laughter echoed through the manor for quite a while.

 

Two hours later.

 

Selina, who had recovered some of the valuables and money the servants had embezzled, returned to the dining hall.

 

And she discovered a stranger in the kitchen.

 

“Selina! That lady is Aunt Marshal. We’re hungry so she’s making us something delicious!”

 

“I-is that so?”

 

Come to think of it, she remembered encountering her a few times.

 

The longtime caretaker of the opposite mansion.

 

The kind woman who would wave at Selina whenever their eyes met.

 

As she sat awkwardly in her chair, Marshal approached the dining table carrying two large plates.

 

“Do our children eat a lot? Here, eat your vegetables too.”

 

Selina stared blankly at the plate in front of her.

 

She could see meat filling a dark-colored soup.

 

On one side of the plate were well-cooked vegetables, probably chosen with nutrition in mind.

 

“Eat plenty and then eat more. When you’re young, you need to eat well to grow big and strong.”

 

Marshal patted Selina’s head.

 

“Thank you for the meal!”

 

Tie, who greeted energetically, was the first to take a big spoonful of soup and put it in her mouth.

 

“…”

 

Selina, who then picked up her spoon, was left speechless.

 

The soup was truly delicious.

 

Not burnt black meat, not undercooked vegetables.

 

She didn’t know how long it had been since she’d eaten delicious, well-cooked food full of care, so her eyes naturally stung.

 

“Selina, don’t cry and eat Tie’s too!”

 

Seeing Selina’s eyes turn red, Tie hurriedly stepped forward.

 

Tie scooped up a generous amount of meat from her soup and transferred it to Selina’s soup.

 

Selina was watching this with reddened eyes when it happened.

 

“Hey, noble child.”

 

Veil appeared from behind.

 

In Veil’s hand was a communication device blinking with red light.

 

Selina’s eyes widened for just a moment.

 

-Selina! Now, I’m coming now!

 

Mother’s cracked voice came from beyond the communication device.

 

-Our daughter, you must have been so scared? Mommy and Daddy are coming now, so if you wait just six more days, Mommy and Daddy will come… ugh, sob.

 

-We didn’t know. It’s all our fault! How much you’ve been through alone all this time as such a young child…

 

Veil pressed the communication device into the frozen Selina’s hands.

 

Selina clutched the communication device tightly and barely managed to speak.

 

“M-Mom, Dad…”

 

-Yes, sweetheart! It’s okay. You don’t need to say anything. Mommy heard everything, and I’m so… so sorry. Agavert said he’ll protect you until we arrive, so don’t worry about anything…!

 

Soon thick tears began to fall down Selina’s cheeks, drop by drop.

 

Tie unconsciously rubbed her nose.

 

‘…Will Father someday remember Tie again too?’

 

And will he hug her saying he’s sorry for not recognizing her all this time?

 

Tie forgot about eating and stared at Selina for a while.

 

Somehow one side of her heart felt choked up, making it hard to hold back tears.

 

That evening.

 

“Y-you received 100 Idongchin?!”

 

Agavert’s stronghold, where they returned together with Selina.

 

Nordics, who had been standing at the entrance, staggered from his spot.

 

“Yes! Selina’s mom and dad gave them for free!”

 

“It’s not exactly free. We’re getting paid for taking care of the noble child for the next six days.”

 

Tie made an “oops” sound and nodded her head.

 

“Mm-hmm, payment!”

 

But even so, Nordics couldn’t easily close his mouth.

 

At the current time, one Idongchin was worth 300 gold.

 

‘So 100 pieces would be 30,000 gold…’

 

Nordics’ gaze turned blankly toward Tie.

 

Tie had gone to spend 16,000 gold, but ended up earning twice that amount just like that.
