A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 154
The covenant ring was fitted onto the child’s hand.
A terrifying magical tool that could easily slice off a person’s wrist had been placed on Tie’s hand.
“You filthy bastard that even beasts wouldn’t eat-!”
However, as Veil charged toward Tesetan,
“Calm down a bit.”
Someone blocked his path.
It was Victor, a member of Trevaga, who grabbed Veil’s shoulder.
Veil glared fiercely at Victor, who had a slender build and long navy hair tied back.
“…You gonna move that?! Should I cut off your wrist first before I slice that bastard’s neck?”
An amused smile spread across Victor’s face.
“Quite a foul mouth. Of course, I don’t discriminate when it comes to beautiful women. If you want…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Veil punched Victor in the cheek.
Victor, who took a direct hit to his mouth, continued with a surprised expression.
“Your fists pack quite a punch too?”
“You bastard, I’ve been patient enough!”
“Hey! Get away from Victor!”
Livia also rushed toward them.
She held a peculiar weapon with a curved blade in her hand.
“Why are you attacking someone else’s officer and causing a scene! Are you crazy?!”
Angrily, she thrust her weapon at Veil.
Veil didn’t back down and instead stepped forward.
“What’s that thing with hair like monster guts saying? Who started this garbage first!”
“Wh-what, monster guts?!”
The atmosphere instantly froze.
A precarious tension hung between the two mercenary groups.
“Such a loose mouth, saying whatever comes to mind? Really…”
As Livia gritted her teeth and got in Veil’s face,
“Come any closer and I won’t stay still.”
This time, Basto with his warhammer stepped up from behind Veil.
When he set down his hammer, dust rose from the ground with a thud.
“Want a brawl? If that’s what you’re after, I’ll gladly oblige without backing down.”
Livia’s eyes widened.
“Right, so you’re going to keep acting like this? Perfect. I was getting restless anyway.”
Daggers spun between her fingers.
“I was getting tired of dismantling monsters every day, so it’s been a while since…”
“Stop! Stop stop stop!”
But someone frantically squeezed between Trevaga and Agavert.
“Tie fighting!”
It was Tie who shouted with a terrified expression.
Basto and Veil stared at Tie in surprise. The Trevaga members also stopped their actions and looked at Tie.
Tie continued with a trembling voice.
“Tie and that person fighting! We promised to compete fairly and squarely!”
A hollow laugh escaped from Veil’s mouth.
“Really, from earlier… Who doesn’t know that? Fine, I’ll accept the sword duel. But that crazy bastard even put a dangerous thing on you…”
“Don’t call him bastard.”
Tie’s voice trembled finely as if crying.
For some reason, Tie was looking up at Veil with a reddened nose.
A faint whirlwind of magical power swirled around the child.
“Don’t say bad things! That person is…”
The child who had kept their mouth shut added.
“Tie’s duel opponent.”
Livia furrowed her brow.
Basto and Veil also fell silent, at a loss for words.
Tesetan’s face hardened subtly.
‘So you’ll show respect even to a lowly duel opponent?’
But respect was usually mutual. Not something done unilaterally by one side.
Tesetan had arbitrarily grabbed the Commander King’s wrist and fitted the covenant ring.
He had done this knowing that touching another’s body without permission was an insult and discourtesy.
There were two reasons.
First, he suspected the Commander King might try to avoid the covenant ring,
Second, he deliberately tried to create a hostile atmosphere to induce a light skirmish before the duel.
But the Commander King neither avoided nor shook off Tesetan’s touch.
Instead, he obediently let him put on the ring, and now was personally stopping the members rushing toward Tesetan.
‘Did he read my intentions?’
Tesetan had judged that draining the Commander King’s strength before the duel would increase his chances of winning.
The Commander King was a mage, and mages had a fatal weakness.
Mages usually became incapacitated the moment they ran out of magical power.
“Everyone go over there. No interference!”
But the Commander King didn’t fall for his scheme.
Even though he must have seen through his intentions, he showed not the slightest waver.
“Tie, you…”
The Agavert members’ faces went blank.
Tesetan observed them before turning his gaze back to the Commander King.
Tie.
The Commander King’s real name, which he had heard before, still sounded like a woman’s.
It didn’t suit the title ‘Commander King’ at all, being as bland as his appearance suggested.
“Tie, why on earth are you…”
Several Agavert officers approached the Commander King.
But the Commander King quickly backed away from them and
“Ppupppu!”
suddenly shouted into the air.
Immediately, dark red mist swirled around them.
Victor, Aleric, and Livia also quickly stepped back from the smoke that obscured their vision.
Tesetan frowned and drew the sword at his waist.
“You promised!”
A sobbing voice came from beyond the mist.
The Commander King, blurred by the fog, was looking at him with a complicated expression.
“The loser listens to the winner! Everything!”
Tesetan looked down.
The covenant ring on his left wrist glowed with silver light.
It was proof that the oath had been established.
Tesetan smiled and readily assumed a battle stance.
“Good.”
Then he added in a low murmur.
“If I kill you today, I’ll reclaim the number one employment ranking, right?”
Golden energy gathered around his sword.
Soon the sword energy shot forth, cutting through the red mist.
“What should we do?”
Leonardo asked.
Valentis couldn’t give any answer.
Before his eyes.
In the open ruins, explosions and smoke swirled with waves of unfamiliar magical power.
“Unit leader! You’re doing great! Keep pouring it on!”
Trevaga’s members shouted excitedly.
Valentis swallowed dryly as he looked toward where their gazes were directed.
Golden light flashed through the fog where nothing could be seen even an inch ahead, illuminating all directions.
To find the Commander King’s main body, Tesetan was firing sword energy.
At that moment, the red fog gathered toward the center of the ruins.
The fog surged like a massive tidal wave and began shooting up high into the sky.
“…!”
At the overwhelming sight, Tesetan’s sword energy, which had seemed like it would never end, stopped.
He maintained his combat stance while watching the fog rising into the sky.
Soon the fog transformed into the shape of a beast.
Then, with its maw wide open, it charged at Tesetan without a moment’s hesitation.
“Unit leader!”
Behind the members’ cries, Tesetan raised his sword vertically.
Through his domain’s awakening, Valentis saw Tesetan’s sword energy being reorganized.
‘…Theseus, you are.’
The hair on the back of his neck stood on end.
Until now, Tesetan’s sword energy had been split into multiple parts.
It had remained in an unstable and explosive state, forming a wide-range attack pattern to find the Commander King hidden in the fog.
But the moment the Commander King’s fog came crashing down on him.
Tesetan gathered his scattered sand-like sword energy at an unimaginable speed.
Then in the blink of an eye, he condensed it firmly into a single point.
Valentis closed his mouth.
It was a talent unbelievable even when seen with one’s own eyes, an overwhelming and destructive power.
The sword energy pressed against Tesetan’s blade became sharp enough to be visible to the naked eye.
‘…Yes, that’s it.’
Tesetan’s first sword strike that informants often told him about.
That Armor Break which could cut down even stealth-type monsters, said to be so difficult to kill, in a single blow.
Kwaaaaang-!
Astie’s fog split left and right without a trace of resistance.
