A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 179
In the dense forest.
Tie’s song echoed through the quiet mountain path.
“Let’s go through the green forest! Let’s ride horses crawling along! When the mastones appear~ A horde of monsters came! A monster horde!”
At that sound, a bird flew up from a branch.
Tie’s eyes immediately lit up.
“Basto Uncle, there’s a spotted bird over there!”
“It’s called a flycatcher, Tie. Because it’s autumn.”
“A flycatcher?”
Tie turned her gaze forward again.
Up ahead, twenty paladins were marching in a line with Leonardo at the front.
Behind them, Father and Princess Association Leader were following Tie and Basto.
Suddenly, she could hear the sound of the two of them having a conversation.
“Why do you stop talking mid-sentence? So what happened then?”
“What do you mean what happened? We just dueled.”
“You’re insane! You made an enemy of someone from the Order over just one weapon?”
“It’s not like antagonizing the Order is a new thing for me. More importantly, Association Leader, do you also wield a sword?”
A flustered expression crossed Ardiana’s face.
“How did you know that…”
Muttering that, she suddenly stared at her own hand gripping Tesetan’s waist.
On the outer side of her palm, exposed without gloves, calluses were embedded.
“…!”
Ardiana quickly pulled her hand away and swayed on the horse, unable to resist the recoil.
“Hahaha!”
Then Tesetan laughed heartily and supported Ardiana’s back.
He grinned at the completely frozen Ardiana.
“Want to sit in front?”
Ardiana’s face turned bright red.
“N-no! Don’t say such nonsense and just watch where you’re going.”
As the atmosphere became strange once again, Tie tilted her head.
“…What good timing.”
Basto’s voice could be heard.
When she looked up, she could see a faint smile spreading across Basto’s lips.
“What’s good timing?”
Basto patted Tie’s head.
“Those two. Eve and I were like that too.”
A subtle gleam appeared in Tie’s eyes.
Eve was Basto’s wife who had passed away.
“No matter how much they bicker, they can’t hide their expressions. Honestly, it’s unexpected.”
Basto chuckled softly and continued.
“If Tesetan really develops that kind of relationship with the Association Leader. It would probably be good for Agabert, Tie.”
“That kind of relationship…?”
“Yes. The kind of thing Jen suggested to you in Kaldenbain-Ridge.”
‘But you, ahem! Do you happen to have a boyfriend?’
“Huh.”
Tie, who recalled that incident, quickly turned her head back.
Then she saw the two people still bickering.
Boyfriend, girlfriend.
‘Father and Princess…?’
Her lips parted.
Honestly speaking, she had never imagined Father having a girlfriend before.
The same went for scenes of Father becoming someone’s boyfriend.
‘But this is even before Tie was born.’
Father at this time was a bachelor who had just turned twenty.
As the Gold Coalition neighbors said, he was at an age to meet many women and jump into the hellfire of love…
Tie felt strangely complicated and looked forward again.
Then she fell into deep thought with the flycatcher’s sounds as background.
‘Did Father also have passionate hellfire love with Tie’s mother?’
Tie would be born in this other world in 7 years.
The person Father would be dating around that time would be Tie’s mother, right?
The moment she thought that far.
“You don’t like carrots?”
Father’s voice could be heard from behind again.
Tie perked up her ears in that direction.
Ardiana let out a long sigh and answered.
“That’s right. I don’t like carrots. I’m not fond of spinach either.”
“You have a child’s palate.”
“…I have nothing to say. I’ve disliked them since I was little.”
“Even if you dislike them, you have to eat them. Don’t you know you need to consistently consume fiber to avoid problems later?”
“Problems? What problems?”
Tesetan chuckled.
“You’ll just scold me for being crude again if I tell you.”
“…I won’t, so tell me. Being crude is better than making people curious.”
Tesetan looked at Ardiana intently and opened his mouth playfully.
“Well then. I’ll just mention that there was once a guy in Trevaga who suffered for eating only meat.”
“He suffered? What do you mean…”
Ardiana parted her lips as if she had realized something.
Soon she smacked Tesetan’s back.
“I, I don’t have that problem! You crude…!”
Tie blinked.
Because suddenly the image of Father and Tie from South Korea overlapped above the two people.
‘Daughter, you need to eat your fiber properly. Here, just eat two more pieces of carrot that Father cut for you.’
‘But Tie doesn’t like carrots!’
‘Oh my. If you keep being picky about vegetables, you’ll bleed when you poop later, you know? Did you see Mr. Choi from the alley who can’t even sit on a chair?’
‘I saw him…’
‘Will our daughter become like that too? If you can’t sit down, you can’t watch TV at Grandmother’s house. You can’t attend preschool classes either?’
That day, Tie had no choice but to eat all the carrots Father gave her.
After that, she improved her picky eating habits a little, so she even finished all the carrot soup Basto made in this other world…
‘But it’s amazing.’
Princess also dislikes carrots just like Tie.
Not only that?
‘She dislikes spinach exactly like Tie too!’
Her heart pounded.
The child repeatedly looked back at Ardiana while fidgeting with her hands.
‘Princess, would she happen to like fish in water too?’
Tie only likes grilled fish.
Then she considered a certain thought before shaking her head back and forth.
A few hours later, at noon when the sun rose to the center of the sky.
“…Wow!”
Tie, who had dismounted from her horse, gaped at the scene unfolding before her eyes.
In front of the Royal Palace’s main gate.
Antique stone arches lined both sides of the dizzyingly high stone stairs.
Beyond them, the roof of the massive Royal Palace main building looked as small as a bean.
“We will now begin the siege site investigation.”
At Commander Leonardo’s words, the Paladins moved to their assigned locations.
Leonardo approached Basto and Tie.
“Here are the blueprints of the Royal Palace.”
Other unit members gathered around with gleaming eyes.
“This is the main gate, and if you pass through the stairs you see ahead, you’ll enter the southern part of the square. Agavert, please investigate the clock tower. Let’s meet back here at the appointed time.”
Basto nodded and looked back at Tesetan.
“Regent. Take the lead.”
Tesetan began climbing the stairs first as if it were nothing.
However, for some reason, he stopped in place after about five steps.
Looking down at his feet, he muttered to himself.
“…It seems a bit slippery.”
Tesetan crushed the moss covering the stairs with his toes.
Then he turned around as if it wouldn’t work after all.
“Sorcerer King.”
Tie, who had been preparing to be held by Basto, widened her eyes.
“Come here and get on my back.”
Tie opened her lips in a daze.
Tesetan, who had let out a sigh, came down the stairs himself.
Then he lifted Tie up as if to show Basto.
“Don’t fall and get hurt again. If hanging on is too difficult, I’ll carry you in front like this.”
As Tesetan began to move, Tie’s eyes grew even larger.
The stiffened child pursed her lips only after a long while.
“….”
And she suddenly wrapped her arms around Tesetan’s neck.
Tesetan, who glanced at that sight, let out another sigh.
Tie was already burying her face in Tesetan’s shoulder with tears welling up.
‘Father is holding Tie.’
At this moment, everything was exactly the same as when she lived with Father in South Korea.
The warm body temperature.
The two arms holding her firmly so Tie wouldn’t fall.
Even the breathing and heartbeat she could hear up close.
Tie began to sniffle.
Tesetan spoke in a troubled voice.
“…What’s this. Don’t cry.”
Tie lifted her head with a pitiful expression.
Father was looking at Tie’s face with snot dripping down, his brow furrowed.
“Why are you crying over something like this. Stop it.”
Tesetan unhesitatingly wiped under Tie’s nose.
However, Tie couldn’t easily stop her tears.
At the child’s face that was still tearful, Tesetan added as if he had no choice.
“…Ha. I’ll hold you like this tomorrow too, so stop crying.”
Only then did Tie hold her breath with a gasp.
Then she wiped her reddened eyes while putting all her strength into her mouth.
The child hugged Tesetan’s neck tightly once more, afraid she might lose him.
“Mm-hmm!”
“Anyway.”
Tesetan chuckled without realizing it and began walking again.
But that was the moment.
‘Woo- buua-‘
Suddenly, a blurry vision appeared before his eyes.
‘Baa! Maaa…!’
A newborn baby wrapped in white cloth.
Small lips giggling at the sight of him.
Tesetan frowned and froze in place.
