A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 186
‘This is serious.’
Tesetan tensed his jaw while holding Tie.
Livia was gasping.
“Wh-what should I do? I can’t, I can’t breathe properly.”
Her complexion had grown even paler than before.
Tesetan quietly gritted his teeth.
If only this place were outside.
Then he could at least try to find a Paladin with healing powers nearby.
Just then.
“Livia!”
Having regained consciousness, Aleric came running from behind.
Aleric’s eyes began to shake as he confirmed Livia’s condition.
“You…!”
“Aleric, you’re, huff, you’re bleeding.”
Livia smiled while looking at Aleric’s torn shoulder.
Aleric, who had stopped breathing, horribly contorted his face.
“Is my shoulder important right now? What on earth happened…”
Livia’s eyelids trembled.
Barely holding onto consciousness, her pupils looked precarious as if they might lose strength at any moment.
“Danzu, Regent.”
Unable to bear it any longer, Aleric turned around.
“Anything! Can’t you do something somehow? At least the Regent is…!”
Aleric closed his mouth.
Tesetan’s gaze darkened.
Because he knew what Aleric’s unfinished words meant.
Tesetan answered in a sunken voice.
“I can’t heal with my holy power.”
“…”
“My holy power wasn’t trained in that direction. I’m sorry.”
Tesetan wielded both holy power and magic simultaneously.
But that was an ability that only applied to swordsmanship.
To use holy power for healing required a very long time of training and refinement.
Even Alexander had taken nearly 10 years to use that level of healing power.
“Then…”
Aleric turned his gaze to stare at Tie.
Tie was looking back at Aleric with tears welling up in her eyes.
“How, isn’t there some way…? You’re a powerful mage.”
“…”
“The first to handle dark attributes, so…”
Aleric’s voice gradually faded away.
Because he himself knew.
Magic was fundamentally not a power of healing.
No matter how great a mage Astie was, it would be difficult to suddenly heal someone.
Moreover, Livia’s wound was by no means small.
“Stop it. Huff, Aleric.”
At that moment, a voice that seemed about to fade came from behind.
Livia was barely breathing while staring at Aleric.
“I’m, huff, I’m the one who’s hurt, so why are you making those two into criminals?”
Livia looked at Tesetan and Tie.
“Danzu. Regent. Just in case, I’m saying this.”
The breathing sounds flowing from her mouth grew increasingly rough.
“I’m not dying because of you two, huff. Right?”
“Livia!”
Aleric shouted, but Livia didn’t stop talking.
“Ah, I should have, landed better, huff…”
Livia’s hand that had been holding the wound area slipped down.
“Livia! No!”
Aleric screamed and grabbed Livia.
He repeatedly stroked Livia’s bloodless cheek.
“Stay conscious. We can get out soon. Once we get out and treat you, this will be nothing, okay?”
“…”
However, Livia didn’t answer.
Her pupils lost focus, and in her body where most movement had stopped, only her chest rose and fell slightly.
Tie unconsciously clenched her fists tight.
Everything looked distorted because of the flowing tears.
‘Aunt Livia…’
Suddenly.
She remembered the day she first saw Livia in her dream.
‘Miss. You must always stay healthy.’
Now Tie understood too.
Why Livia had called her ‘Miss’ in that dream.
‘Because Tie was Father’s daughter. Because Aunt Livia was Father’s subordinate.’
‘Always, always be perfectly happy…’
“Ugh…”
Someone was dying before her eyes.
And it was someone precious who had wished for Tie’s happiness more than anyone.
‘It’s because of Tie.’
Everything was Tie’s fault.
Though Tie hadn’t caused the earthquake, both then and now, Livia got hurt trying to protect Tie.
‘Also, if Tie hadn’t been here, if Tie hadn’t come here looking for Father.’
Wouldn’t Livia have avoided getting hurt today?
In the other timeline before crossing over, Livia had lived healthily until much further in the future.
Tie’s lips trembled.
‘Aunt Livia got hurt because Tie came. Much earlier…’
She had come to protect.
But she had caused someone to be hurt to the point of death.
The trembling in the child’s body grew stronger.
Tesetan held Tie more firmly while keeping his gaze fixed on Livia.
Aleric’s voice could be heard muttering like a madman.
“No, no.”
Neither of them was experiencing the loss of a comrade for the first time.
But Livia was…
Aleric repeatedly gathered magic at his trembling fingertips.
Because that was all he could do at this moment.
But the already depleted mana only continued to scatter even that.
In that instant, a long final breath finally flowed from Livia’s lips.
The small rise and fall of her chest also completely stopped.
It was when Aleric froze and a terrible silence descended upon the space.
“…No, Aunt!”
Tie pushed Tesetan aside and ran forward.
“Aunt, Aunt…!”
Aleric watched Astie with dry eyes.
Astie was shaking Livia’s shoulders with all her strength.
Aleric slowly stared at the ceiling.
No tears came from his wide-open eyes.
‘Let’s do well today without getting hurt, okay?’
In his head, the words Livia had said before the battle began echoed and echoed again.
“…Astie?”
But at that moment, Tesetan muttered.
At the same time, the surroundings suddenly brightened.
Aleric lowered his head.
And he closed his lips at the scene unfolding before his eyes.
“Danzu?”
A familiar-shaped golden energy was rippling from Tie’s fingertips.
That wasn’t all.
Rays of light extending from Astie’s body brightly illuminated the isolated space.
“Aunt, you can’t die.”
Tears dripped from Astie’s eyes.
Without even knowing what she was doing, Tie embraced Livia’s neck.
The golden energy was absorbed into Livia’s body as if being sucked in.
A short gasp flowed from Aleric’s mouth.
It was because he saw the wound on Livia’s cheek immediately healing.
There was no time to grasp the situation.
There was no time to hesitate further.
Aleric confirmed once more with his own eyes that Livia’s wounds were healing.
Then he took a deep breath and pulled out the stone fragment embedded deep in Livia’s side.
“Aunt…”
Amidst the sound of Tie sniffling.
Thick blood gushed out from Livia’s side.
But when the golden energy rushed there, the bleeding immediately stopped.
Dropping the stone fragment, Aleric gasped for breath.
The wound that had seemed to have a gaping hole was rapidly closing.
Severed blood vessels reconnected, and muscles and ligaments regenerated.
“How, divine power…”
Aleric muttered.
In doing so, he failed to notice that his own shoulder wound touched by the light was also healing.
“…Cough!”
The next moment, Livia opened her eyes.
Tie also raised her head.
“Aunt!”
Looking at Tie smiling brightly, Livia slowly blinked her eyes.
‘…I thought I was going to die?’
She couldn’t understand what had happened in such a short time.
She felt around her side with trembling hands.
But there, only skin raised like a scar could be felt.
“Right now, what…”
‘She’s my daughter.’
Then a certain scene unfolded before her eyes.
‘Her name is Astie.’
Tesetan.
But it was Tesetan with sharper facial features and giving off a somewhat unfamiliar atmosphere compared to now.
‘I’ll raise her well.’
Livia clutched her forehead.
‘In a safe and warm place. As a child brighter and happier than anyone.’
‘…’
‘I’ll definitely raise her that way.’
Livia turned her head toward Tesetan.
Then her eyes met with Aleric, who was making a similar expression to hers.
