A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 183
“Tie?”
Tie opened her eyes to a distant voice calling out.
“Mmm…”
As she squinted against the bright sunlight, a shadow immediately fell across her face.
Father was holding up one hand to block the streaming sunlight.
On the other side, Ardiana smiled brightly and asked.
“Did you sleep well?”
Tie blinked and hesitantly nodded her head.
Yesterday it was too dark to see properly.
Ardiana without her mask was the most beautiful person Tie had ever seen.
Tesetan said.
“Sorcerer King. You have quite terrible sleeping habits.”
Tie jumped up in surprise.
She looked around and then stared at Father restlessly.
‘Oh no, Tie rolled around again!’
Looking now, Tie had rolled quite far toward Father while sleeping.
Tie looked at Tesetan with an apologetic expression.
“Sorry. Vice Leader. Was it uncomfortable…?”
Tesetan let out a soft laugh.
“Not really? When you rolled over, I just pushed you back to the middle, so it was fine.”
“Oh my, really…?”
“Yeah. You wouldn’t have noticed if someone carried you away.”
Embarrassed, Tie closed her mouth.
The child’s cheeks soon turned bright red.
‘Tie went to dreamland with Father.’
Just like in the old days, when they slept together on one blanket in Gold Apartment 106.
Father had even moved Tie back to her original spot when she rolled over.
‘He did that in Jongno-gu too.’
“Tesetan. Could you bring some water?”
Then Ardiana spoke leisurely.
Tie stared at Father with wide eyes.
Father replied playfully to Ardiana.
“Aren’t you working me too hard? You make people anxious and don’t even feel sorry about it.”
Ardiana snorted.
“Unfortunately, it wasn’t my intention. Didn’t you once say you wanted to live completely captivated by a woman you could revere?”
A smile spread across Tesetan’s lips.
He looked at the faint dimple in Ardiana’s cheek before getting up and dusting himself off.
When only the two of them remained, Ardiana swept Tie’s bangs to one side.
“Today we agreed to go out for the siege together.”
“Yes!”
“It’s dangerous, so you must always stay close to the unit members.”
Tie nodded vigorously.
During the brief silence that followed, as the child fidgeted with the blanket.
“I like children.”
Ardiana said warmly.
Astie looked at Ardiana in surprise.
Ardiana smiled casually and continued.
“I’m telling you that you don’t need to hide from me anymore.”
She got up from the bed and brought Tie’s uniform from the nightstand.
Just then, Tesetan entered the barracks with water.
“Drink this. Are you hungry?”
Tie hesitantly took the water glass while watching Ardiana.
‘The Princess knows Tie’s identity…!’
Ardiana’s profile was calm as she put on her coat and combed down her long hair.
She even put on her mask and walked over to the bed.
Then, as if nothing had happened, she extended her hand to Tie.
“Shall we go eat?”
Tie looked restlessly at her outstretched hand.
Then Ardiana added.
“For reference, I will also keep the secret about the Sorcerer King’s identity.”
Tie’s lips parted slightly.
Suddenly, she remembered what she had said when she first met Ardiana.
‘Tie will protect the Association Leader’s identity.’
A smile gradually spread across the child’s face.
Soon Tie got up from the bed energetically.
The glass beside her tipped over, but Tesetan skillfully caught it, preventing the bed from getting wet.
“Yes! Let’s go!”
Tie stepped onto the floor with a bright smile.
Then a dimple appeared in exactly the same place as Ardiana’s.
Tesetan laughed helplessly and set the water glass on the nightstand.
He started to put on his coat but stopped in place.
‘…can’t do it. …can’t raise…’
A familiar tear-stained face flashed before his eyes and disappeared.
While Tesetan stood frozen, his vision flashed and other scenes began to quickly pass before his eyes.
‘I know it’s contradictory.’
‘…never, not even once could I hold you. So you…’
‘I won’t exist in this world.’
‘Don’t come looking…’
Another hallucination.
Feeling the world spin around him, he reflexively gripped the nightstand.
Soon after, a confused expression appeared on his face.
He looked toward the entrance where Ardiana and Tie had disappeared and muttered.
“…Ardiana?”
Hair tied in a ponytail fluttered in the air.
“Finally this damn siege is over!”
As Veil shouted from his running horse, Tie, who was following behind him, got angry.
“Brother Veil! Bad words are forbidden!”
Tie was bouncing around between Basto’s arms as he held the reins.
Raul brought his horse alongside Veil’s.
“Still, it seems to have ended earlier than we planned! It’s probably because we skipped the preliminary investigation stage!”
Veil looked at Raul as if to say ‘don’t even start.’
“That’s true, but what are we going to do about it! What kind of monsters keep coming endlessly?! Now I feel nauseous just looking at grass!”
“Haha, but today’s the last day!”
Veil shook her head and picked up the pace.
Raul followed behind her.
Everyone arrived at the High Castle a little past noon.
“Ppupppu, come out!”
Tie wore her preschool bag in front and called out to Ppupppu energetically.
Ppupppu, who had just woken up, sluggishly poked her head out of the zipper.
“You’ll do well today, right? I can’t call my bone friends, so Ppupppu and Marul have to help.”
Following Ppupppu, Marbas also poked his head out.
[Don’t worry! With these bee bullets that Marul invented, we can capture any monster alive!]
Tie smiled contentedly and gently patted the spirited Marbas on the head.
The power of the newly evolved weapon, the bee bullets, was truly amazing.
Recently, Marbas had modified the poison needle bullets at Tie’s request.
It was a convenient weapon that fired poison needles the moment it was thrown while a honeycomb-shaped net extended along with it.
Tie, who had been pondering the weapon, came up with an idea,
‘But you know, wouldn’t it be nice if we painted it yellow?’
[…Excuse me?]
‘Tie likes bees, so yellow!’
Marbas was forced to modify the net’s color to yellow and even had to name it ‘bee bullets.’
“Hehe, Marul is the best!”
Of course, the grievances gained through all that hard work melted away like snow with just one word of praise from Tie.
“Child, are you ready? The monsters come out as soon as the sun sets?”
Veil approached and said.
Tie answered brightly.
“Mmhm, Tie is all ready! I don’t have bone friends, but I have subordinates, and bee bullets and Ppupppu too!”
Veil, who had been nodding, suddenly stiffened.
“Come to think of it. Why haven’t you been summoning Kamang lately?”
Tie froze for a moment.
The child slyly avoided Veil’s eyes.
“Ka, Kamang? Mmhm, I don’t know.”
“What are you talking about. You don’t know.”
“I just don’t know!”
Tie quickly fled the spot.
The child only let out a sigh of relief after reaching Aleric and Livia.
“Phew.”
That was almost a disaster.
Veil almost found out that Kamang isn’t actually a summoned creature!
But the child’s expression soon became dejected.
‘But why isn’t Kamang really coming…?’
He’s never been away from Tie’s side for this long.
“Tie, over here. We’re thinking of setting up temporary barracks.”
Just then, Basto’s voice came from the opposite side.
Father was also standing next to Basto.
“Wow! Tie likes it!”
Tie quickly ran over there again.
Around the barracks, weapons for the Paladins and mercenary group to use were already neatly stacked.
Tie, who suddenly remembered something, rummaged through her bag again.
Deep in the bag, the three bear doll orbs she had forgotten about were crumpled up inside.
Just as Tie took them out and was lost in thought.
“Don’t tell me, are these orbs?”
Someone asked from beside her.
When she turned her head, Aleric had approached with curious eyes shining.
