A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 195
[From now on, I will fill this orb completely with Master’s magical power.]
As Marbas bounced up from the floor with a thud, the orb floated up.
The transparent orb began spinning around Tie in circles.
[When the orb turns completely golden, it means it’s fully charged. Then….]
“Marul will take that and cross back over to the other side?”
Marul spun his body around in a full circle.
[Exactly! As expected!]
Marbas glanced at Tesetan once and continued speaking.
[If I safely bring Master’s magical power, Lord Lucalion will be able to use it to strengthen the Time Corridor.]
“Then Tie and Father can go back to Talochium too?”
[Yes! Right now the portal is incomplete, so there’s a risk of being bounced out or trapped midway.]
Tie gulped.
Suddenly, she remembered that long tunnel she had passed through with Father.
‘Ugh, I don’t want to get trapped again.’
That tunnel had been so long it made her head dizzy.
And that wasn’t all?
Everything around them had been swaying like oil floating on water, and she had almost gotten motion sickness.
Tie steeled herself and asked.
“I understand. So when will the orb be charged?”
Marbas stiffened with a start.
[Ahem! Well, that is.]
Marbas glanced at Tie and spoke in a slightly smaller voice.
[Actually, I’m not really sure either.]
Tie’s eyes widened.
While the child was speechless, Tesetan stepped forward.
“What do you mean by that? You don’t know how long it will take?”
Marbas cowered and increased his distance from Tesetan.
[The harmonium was developed in such a hurry, you see. In trying to increase stability, the external design became complicated, so the magical power charging speed might be a bit slow….]
“How slow is ‘a bit slow’? Explain it precisely.”
Marbas made a cornered expression.
He gradually backed away until he was pressed against the wall and said.
[It’s not exact, but probably a few weeks in this place’s time…?]
“A few weeks?”
Tesetan’s eyes grew wide.
He quietly pressed his forehead.
To think they had to endure several weeks in this place where he couldn’t understand anything.
“Well, a few weeks isn’t that terribly long….”
But Tie looked disappointed, as if it were too short instead.
Marbas asked back in a puzzled voice.
[Huh, Master? Don’t tell me you don’t want to return to Talochium?]
Tie hesitated and looked down at Marbas.
“It’s not that….”
Marbas’s eyes sparkled.
[If that’s the case, I think it would be good for Master and me to stay here together!]
Tie opened her mouth.
[I’ve heard about it! This dimension is probably much more familiar to Master, isn’t it?]
Marbas bounced over to approach Tie.
[If you wish, I have a way. What’s the biggest problem with staying here? I could try to solve it… Oof.]
Tesetan swiftly snatched up Marbas.
“What are you suggesting to a child? Be quiet.”
Marbas shut his mouth.
As soon as Tesetan let him go, Marbas quickly fled back toward the wall.
But regret was dripping from his eyes.
‘How could this be, it was a chance to escape from that violent elephant…!’
The short, bristled lion face looked forlorn.
His eyes glared toward Tesetan.
‘Just because he’s Master’s father doesn’t mean everything! It doesn’t!’
Honestly speaking, the young master had seemed interested in Marbas’s proposal.
It was natural since she had spent most of her short life in this place.
Marbas fell deep into thought.
‘Should I try persuading her more when the father isn’t around?’
His eyes sparkled as he looked at Tie’s dejected face.
That evening.
“Grandmother!”
“Oh my, our puppy!”
Tie ran straight to 107 Grandmother who had opened the door and come in, hugging her.
Grandmother’s body, as she hugged Tie, somehow smelled pungent.
Tie sniffed and tilted her head.
‘What is this smell?’
It seemed like some kind of medicine smell.
Grandmother stroked Tie’s head and said.
“Haven’t had dinner yet? That sick father of yours couldn’t have prepared….”
107 Grandmother, who had reflexively looked toward the kitchen, froze in place.
In the kitchen stood Tesetan wearing her pajamas and holding a spatula.
Tesetan’s eyes looked troubled for a moment.
He glanced at Tie and hesitantly opened his mouth.
“You, you’re back.”
Chaeboksu straightened up as if flustered.
She put down the bag she was holding and answered.
“Oh, oh, yes. I’m back.”
Tie looked back and forth between the two people, then pulled Chaeboksu toward the television.
“Grandmother. Tie was watching this.”
“Oh, were you?”
Grandmother, seeing the trot singer in full swing, leaned slightly toward Tie.
“But child. Your father, he’s not completely out of his mind.”
When Tie tilted her head, Grandmother continued.
“Didn’t he say all his memories were completely gone?”
“Yes.”
“Then how did he know there were sausages in the freezer?”
Tie’s lips parted.
Come to think of it, a few dozen minutes before Grandmother came.
When Tie’s stomach made a growling sound.
‘…Hungry?’
Father, who had been lying next to her watching TV, naturally got up as soon as Tie showed she was hungry.
Then he very naturally opened the refrigerator door and took out four eggs.
Then naturally opened the freezer door and found the sausages…
“Huh.”
Tie jumped up and hurriedly ran to the kitchen.
Then she asked Tesetan with sparkling eyes.
“How did you know?”
Tesetan, who was flipping the fried eggs, glanced down.
The child was looking up at him with bright, curious eyes.
Tesetan quietly stepped in front of the child to block her.
“The oil will splatter on your face.”
But Tie didn’t give up.
“How did you know where the sausages were? Hm?”
“…”
Tesetan kept his mouth shut and stared at the small oil droplets splattering in the frying pan.
The sausages he was turning vibrated in place.
‘That’s right.’
How did I know?
The child’s stomach had growled, and after that he just naturally started cooking.
“How did you know Tie likes sausages? Hm?”
More questions poured out.
Tesetan looked at Tie once, then at the nearly cooked sausages and eggs once.
Then he took out a plate and neatly arranged the food on it.
“Eat first.”
Tie’s eyes widened.
However, the child obediently stepped back from her spot.
And struggled to unfold the small low table that could barely seat three people.
Tesetan stared intently at Tie’s appearance.
‘Father!’
The voice echoed in his ears once again.
‘Father, hehe! Father!’
Right after arriving in this world.
The hallucinations and auditory hallucinations grew worse day by day.
Was it because he had seen and heard too much?
Now even their contents remained vivid and unforgotten.
Tesetan’s expression became complicated.
‘If this is…’
It doesn’t make sense, but if all of this were really true.
If he really was the Commander King’s father.
“F-, no, f-… come here!”
Just then Tie called him.
As if she didn’t know what to call him, she swallowed her words several times.
Tesetan let out a secret sigh.
‘Damn hallucinations. I wish they’d at least show me everything clearly.’
Only fragmentary things came to mind, making him feel even more confused.
When he sat down, the child placed utensils in front of him with her small hands.
“Eat lots.”
The Elder across from him picked up his spoon first.
“Yes!”
Tie answered and put a big spoonful of rice in her mouth.
That’s when it happened.
“Cough!”
Suddenly the Elder covered his mouth with his hand and coughed.
Tie’s eyes widened.
The Elder quickly wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled as if it was nothing.
However, Tesetan’s brow had already furrowed.
A smell that his sensitive nose could never mistake had passed by.
‘Blood?’
He had done this before too.
The Elder was definitely coughing up blood.
