A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 175
“Guild Master! How have you been!”
Tie got up from the mat and quickly gave a belly bow.
Ardiana’s eyes widened.
Tie counted three seconds in her head before proudly straightening her back.
‘Tie knows the Guild Master’s true identity!’
The fairy tale books said you had to be very, very, very polite to princesses.
“I have been well, Commander King.”
Ardiana answered in a gentle voice and turned her gaze to Tie’s arm.
“More importantly, Tesetan of Trevaga… No. Now you’re the Regent of Agabert. Has the arm you injured when sparring with the Regent healed completely?”
“Yes!”
“That’s a relief.”
Ardiana smiled softly.
She slowly looked around as she got up.
The new mercenaries who had been bustling around the garden had already cleared out on their own.
Ardiana gazed at Tie with a gentle smile on her lips.
“I came today because I have something urgent to tell you. There are only two days left until the mission begins.”
Tie nodded.
She remembered what Basto had told her about the Clock Tower mission a few days ago.
The Clock Tower mission that had been postponed due to the sparring match was now approaching again.
“A new person has joined the alliance.”
Tie’s eyes widened.
So far, there were mainly two teams scheduled to participate in the Clock Tower mission.
The Paladins of House Luminen and Tie’s mercenary group Agabert.
But now another person was joining them.
“Who is it?”
Ardiana looked back at the Secretary standing behind her and continued.
“It’s me.”
“Eh… Ehhh?!”
Tie was startled.
The child looked back and forth between Ardiana and the Secretary in disbelief.
“But!”
“…”
“Even though there’s a really big and scary ivy Mastone at the Clock Tower…?”
The Mastone they were going to siege this time was another unprecedented Mastone.
A Mastone larger than even large Mastones, and unusually shaped like a plant.
The unit members said this about it:
‘It won’t be an easy siege. If the guild paired House Luminen with us, it means the siege difficulty is considerable.’
‘Still, we have to try our best. Those Trevaga guys joined us, and though they’re a bit bratty, they should be helpful if they have any conscience.’
‘Tie. Just in case, always maintain your barrier. If you feel your concentration wavering, withdraw your command. You know that, right?’
‘Yes!’
Though she answered spiritedly, Tie was actually a bit nervous too.
‘It was the same when we eliminated the maritime Mastone in Pearl City before.’
When people talked about unprecedented Mastones and Mastones they’d never seen before, Tie couldn’t help but feel nervous too.
Tie looked at Ardiana restlessly.
‘But the Princess is going there…?’
Why?
Tie recalled all the princesses she knew in her head.
Countless princesses flashed through her memory: Snow White, Cinderella, Rapunzel, the Princess of Tanifang, and many others.
After finishing her thoughts, Tie’s face became gloomy.
‘The Guild Master Princess must be mistreated by her family…’
According to Tie’s data, happy princesses generally stayed in sparkling palaces.
They had many wonderful friends, closets full of pretty clothes.
And they ate delicious snacks every day.
But if these princesses suddenly left the palace to do dangerous things, it was because:
‘When stepmothers mistreat them!’
Tie looked at Ardiana’s complexion with a serious face.
She wanted to ask what made the Princess go to such a dangerous place.
But according to 107 Grandmother’s teachings, you shouldn’t just ask about other people’s business.
After agonizing, Tie finally spoke.
“Then how many subordinates are you taking…?”
Since the Princess was going to a dangerous place, she’d surely have dozens of subordinates!
However, Ardiana only answered calmly.
“I’ll take five.”
“Ehhh?!”
Great shock appeared on Tie’s face once again.
“Why are you taking so few? When you go to siege Mastones, there are tons of monsters! Even small monsters like sparrows can hurt people this much!”
Ardiana smiled bitterly.
“Well.”
Ardiana unconsciously fell into thought.
Actually, she could have brought more guards.
The guards that the Empress and Pides initially proposed were actually over twenty.
‘But I was the one who suggested reducing it to five.’
Ardiana was expecting it.
Once the Mastone siege began and the situation became complicated, the guards provided by the Empress and Pides would target Ardiana away from prying eyes.
What the Empress and Pides always wanted was to eliminate Ardiana.
‘But to hire other trustworthy guards…’
Pathetically, there was no one else in the palace she could call her person.
Ardiana smiled with difficulty.
“I’m fine. Five is enough…”
“Tie will find some!”
But then Astie shouted innocently.
Tie’s face somehow showed firm determination.
“The Grandmother that Tie knows has lots of really strong Knights!”
Not only that?
Tie had a hidden card she’d kept secret.
Selina’s parents were also there.
Tie neatly folded the mat she had been lying on.
Then she tucked the thing as big as her torso under her arm and said proudly.
“Guild Master! This way!”
A few minutes later.
A bright voice came from beyond Tie’s pink communication device.
[Oh my, really? Strong soldiers who can defeat seventeen alone… I think we might be able to find some if we look.]
[Tie! Don’t worry! We’re on some island near the North Continent right now, and the soldiers here have heads twice as big as Talochium soldiers! Of course their bodies are twice as big too!]
[Shh, Selina. Mother is on a call.]
[…]
Tie swallowed hard and asked Katrin again.
“Thank you, Mother Selina! So when will those strong private soldiers come?”
[They said two days from the North Palace Ruins, right? I’ll send them straight there. I’ll try to match the timing, but I’m not sure if they’ll be late?]
“It’s okay if they’re a little late!”
They wouldn’t start the siege immediately upon arriving at the ruins anyway.
Since it was a large-scale alliance, they’d need to do preliminary investigations and divide up roles too.
Tie bowed again.
“Mother, thank you so much!”
After finishing the communication, Tie immediately pressed another button.
After a short signal, a welcome voice flowed out again.
[Astie?]
“Councilor!”
Councilor Marianne burst into laughter from beyond the communication device.
[My goodness, what’s the matter? Did the person Mother sent last time arrive safely? Are you healthy, nothing hurts? Our Raul and Enzo are doing well in the mercenary group too, right?]
Tie answered Marianne’s flood of questions cheerfully without showing any sign of annoyance.
“Yes! Tie has something to ask the Councilor! The person Grandmother Waverill sent came safely, Tie doesn’t hurt anywhere, and Raul and Enzo are bursting with energy too!”
[Ah… that’s a relief!]
Tie laughed along with Marianne and continued to the main point.
“But Councilor, Tie needs really strong knights. Strong knights who can win even fighting 17 against 1!”
Marianne made a “hmm” sound and continued speaking.
[Do you mean formally appointed knights? They’re not Paladins, but the family has some elite troops. Mother happens to be here right now, so I’ll ask her immediately.]
The communication device went quiet, and after a moment.
Marianne’s voice was heard.
[Where and when should I dispatch them?]
Tie smiled brightly and looked back.
In front of the reception room side table, Ardiana sat with a dazed expression.
Secretary Cadia, who was standing beside her, gently took the Princess’s hand.
Ardiana slowly turned her head.
In her eyes, which seemed to have lost words, there was a slight heaviness as if surprised.
