A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 141

 

“Wow.”

 

Only Lucalion responded halfheartedly.

 

Selina and Ppupppu clapped with their hands and trunk respectively.

 

“Ahem!”

 

Tie looked at them proudly, then turned around with a solemn expression and pulled something from her bag.

 

A moment ago.

 

It was a circular schedule she had diligently drawn on paper.

 

“This is a schedule, and first at nine in the morning! Everyone wake up together and wash faces and brush teeth!”

 

The unit members exchanged glances.

 

“Then from ten o’clock until four in the afternoon is free time!”

 

Veil frowned.

 

“Wait a minute. Why is the free time so long? It’s almost all day?”

 

As if she had expected such a question, Tie straightened her shoulders.

 

“This means only the unit members have free time! Tie goes to preparatory school during this time.”

 

Basto’s lips parted.

 

Come to think of it.

 

Commander Luminen was currently investigating whether there was a suitable preparatory school for Tie to attend.

 

Once they found a way to come and go while avoiding people’s eyes, Tie was scheduled to enroll immediately.

 

‘But isn’t the schedule too packed?’

 

Going to preparatory school during the day and attacking mastones at night.

 

Tie was only four years old to do all that work in one day.

 

Basto, who had been pondering, raised his hand.

 

“Tie. If you do that, your schedule will be too overwhelming.”

 

Raul and Veil chimed in too.

 

“I think the same. Won’t you be too tired?”

 

“Right, child. Originally for kids, sleeping, resting, and eating are the most important things.”

 

However, Tie stubbornly shook her head.

 

“No, becoming the top mercenary group is more important to Tie!”

 

Then she continued with an enthusiastic voice.

 

“Look, Tie is a king. Com! Man! Der! King! But it’s too shameful for Tie Mercenary Group not to be first place.”

 

“Shameful?”

 

“Yes!”

 

Shame was a word Tie had newly picked up from Selina just a moment ago.

 

While explaining about noble society, Selina had taught her the words ‘shame’ and ‘disgrace’.

 

“Tie thinks anything that’s not first place is all shame and disgrace. So I’ll quickly attack mastones and become the strongest legendary mercenary.”

 

Veil ruffled his hair as if he had a headache.

 

Then he stood up and said.

 

“Well, fine. It’s about time we got back to our main job anyway.”

 

Due to being caught up in various incidents, Agavert had been unable to attack mastones for a while.

 

“Let’s give it a try. Rising in rank is good for us too.”

 

He looked around at the unit members.

 

“In that sense, should we start with small ones on the outskirts of The Order? This whole area is under the paladins’ jurisdiction anyway.”

 

Tie tilted her head.

 

“Veil oppa, what are you talking about? We need to eliminate small and medium ones too. That’s how we quickly become first-place mercenaries.”

 

Veil let out a hollow laugh and stared at Tie.

 

“Child. Do you think medium mastones are easy? Why are you so obsessed with first place?”

 

Instead of answering, Tie rolled her eyes.

 

She couldn’t very well tell Veil ‘Because I need to quickly become first place to cut off Father’s income source!’

 

The child looked at the schedule for no reason and changed the subject.

 

“But we attacked a medium mastone when we were in Pearl City. It was one that came out of the sea and it wasn’t that difficult…”

 

“That’s because you summoned things like shipwrecks.”

 

Veil added in a strange voice.

 

“Of course, with our current forces, medium ones would be manageable…”

 

“If we’re going to attack anyway, attacking medium ones rather than small ones is more efficient.”

 

Basto interjected.

 

He was stroking his beard, lost in deep thought.

 

“If our goal is to raise our ranking like Tie says, it’s a better strategy to target medium ones right away rather than waste time on trivial small mastones.”

 

A bright smile spread across Tie’s face.

 

“Right? Wow, Hammer is the best after all!”

 

The child ran over and hugged Basto tightly.

 

But then Nordics, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up.

 

“Then how do you plan to handle transportation, Tie?”

 

Tie hurried back to the table where the teleportation scrolls were piled up.

 

“For transportation, Mother Selina and Father gave me tons of teleportation scrolls, so we’ll use these!”

 

Nordics nodded as if he had expected this.

 

Then he said.

 

“Tie. There are limits to approaching mastones with teleportation scrolls.”

 

Tie’s eyes widened.

 

Meanwhile, Nordics placed both hands on his knees and explained calmly.

 

“Around all mastones, there exists something called magical power waves.”

 

“Waves…?”

 

“That’s right.”

 

Nordics approached and picked up one teleportation scroll.

 

Then he showed Tie the back side with its complex formations in detail.

 

“The magic circles and runes carved on this basically have magical power extracted from monster cores flowing through them. That’s the principle that allows teleportation of targets.”

 

“…”

 

“But the magical power waves emitted by medium mastones interfere with the activation of teleportation scrolls. Precisely, the waves cause the flow of magical power inside the teleportation scrolls to become tangled.”

 

Tie’s lips slowly parted.

 

“If that weren’t the case, why wouldn’t everyone have approached mastones with teleportation scrolls all this time? Even just shortening travel time would make attacking much easier. Actually, it’s not that they didn’t do it, but that they couldn’t.”

 

“…”

 

“Because you can’t use teleportation scrolls directly near mastones due to the waves.”

 

Tie was concentrating so hard that she almost drooled without realizing it.

 

But thinking about it, she felt like she had heard a similar story before.

 

The day she first met Edmund.

 

In the conversation he had with his adjutant.

 

‘Back then Edmund couldn’t send supplies either.’

 

Because there were too many mastones where he needed to send supplies, so teleportation scrolls wouldn’t work.

 

That’s why Tie had told him a good method.

 

To attach supplies to lanterns and send them.

 

In the end, Tie, who had been pondering, stared at Nordics.

 

“Th-then what should we do…?”

 

The child’s eyebrows drooped sadly.

 

Nordics gently patted Tie’s head.

 

“Well. It’s not right next to the mastone, but we’d have no choice but to teleport to the closest possible area and then approach on foot.”

 

“How far would we have to walk?”

 

“For a small mastone, we could use teleportation scrolls leaving about 20 daio. 20 daio is a distance that takes about four hours of walking.”

 

“Four hours…?!”

 

Tie’s mouth fell wide open.

 

Even using Idongchin, it would take four hours of walking!

 

The important thing was that even this was just the time needed to approach a small mastone.

 

“Th-then what about going to a medium-sized one?”

 

“To move safely, you’d need to keep about 100 daio of distance. Push beyond that and accidents could happen.”

 

Tie was already well aware of Idongchin accidents from things she’d overheard here and there.

 

If you input coordinates that don’t exist in the Idongchin or get interrupted during startup…

 

‘Did you hear? Viscount Matias had his hand severed.’

 

‘Oh, I heard. That scoundrel got that way using Idongchin, right?’

 

‘That’s right. To think there are still people causing such accidents.’

 

‘Seriously, why use Idongchin while drunk? At least input the coordinates properly. And it happened because he tried to rush a distance that takes 20 minutes by carriage… Ah! Child! Why are you under the stairs!’

 

Tie had been playing hibernating bear under the stairs when she overheard Veil and Raul’s conversation.

 

And she was deeply shocked.

 

‘If you use Idongchin near mastones, your hand…!’

 

Tie wiggled her own hands nervously and kept her mouth shut.

 

If she had to walk four hours, or as long as twenty hours even after using Idongchin, all of Tie’s plans would fall apart.

 

First, the problem was that she couldn’t quickly cut off Father’s source of income, and second,

 

“Tie can’t work two jobs…?”

 

The problem was that her schedule of preparatory school during the day and attacking mastones at night would completely collapse.

 

“What should I do…?”

 

But at that moment.

 

Marbas, standing far away, caught the eye of the troubled Tie.
