A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 255
Tie returned with Marbas.
“Father! Grandfather! Uncles!”
Edmund burst into laughter at the excited expression visible from afar.
“What has our nephew brought us this time?”
Tie, who had run over, spilled something out in front of the five people.
Tesetan put down his glass with a surprised face.
“Let’s play hwatu with Tie!”
What Tie had spilled on the deck floor was none other than hwatu cards.
The hwatu cards created through Marbas looked quite decent.
“Now, look here?”
The child looked around and spoke with a determined expression.
“Father and Tie will show you how to do it!”
Whoosh-
A humid wind blew over the deck.
“Father, it’s go-stop!”
Hearing Tie’s shout, Tesetan let out a sigh.
He was reminiscing about life in Jongno-gu once again.
There, Tie spent almost all day with Chaeboksu or Jeongmyeongja.
As a result, she sometimes learned unnecessary things from them.
“Alright, one hundred points!”
“…Daughter. What do you mean one hundred points. Father told you that would cause big trouble!”
“No! No big trouble! 107 Grandmother said ten thousand points isn’t okay but one hundred points is fine!”
Tesetan secretly swallowed a sigh.
However, he soon changed his mind and faced Tie.
“Fine. But you won’t go easy on Father?”
It was just a game she learned by watching over someone’s shoulder.
After losing a few times, Tie would surely lose interest quickly and look for other toys.
However, that was a serious miscalculation.
A moment later.
“…”
Tesetan swallowed dry saliva and held his forehead with one hand.
Tie burst into laughter with an “Umhaha!”
“Father got a blood loss!”
“I know.”
“No bright cards either, so bright loss too!”
“…I know that too.”
“You must be sad. Tie collected all three sets: animals, ribbons, and birds!”
Tesetan looked up as if he couldn’t believe it.
“How did you do that? No, what did you know to do that?”
Tie crossed her arms.
“Hmph, Grandmother said Tie has talent, you know? Father doesn’t know anything.”
Marbas gazed at Tie as if proud.
“Magnificent! To perfectly master such a high-difficulty game.”
“Hehe.”
“Now then. Roughly 13 points multiplied by 8 times…”
Marbas looked at Tesetan and clapped his hands.
“Congratulations, master’s father. You’ve been cleaned out for 104 points by your daughter.”
“Wait.”
Then Edmund approached.
“Let me join too, nephew. I think I roughly understand what this is.”
“Yes! But Uncle, you can’t peek at Tie’s cards, okay?”
“Of course. What do you take your uncle for.”
Alexander, who had been watching their conversation, also quietly approached.
“Tie. Then may I participate too?”
“Gasp! Of course! Then from now on, one person sells the bright cards, got it?”
“What do you sell?”
“Like this, like this…”
Tesetan gaped blankly watching Tie recite the rules fluently.
He soon held his forehead again.
Meanwhile, in the cabin.
“Ah, finally feeling less nauseous.”
Veil, whose condition had improved as the medicine took effect, staggered up from the bed.
Poor Aleric was still groaning.
Opening the door and coming out, an unfamiliar scene caught his eye.
“Come out, come out! Cooome out! Kiya-! It came out! Uncle, Tie did it!”
In the center of the deck.
Tie, who had rolled four long wooden sticks on the floor, was running around energetically among the Luminenka people.
That wasn’t all.
“Piggyback! Piggyback!”
“Well done, little one! As expected of our strongest force.”
Leonardo’s voice was twice as loud as usual from excitement.
Even Valentis’s cheeks were flushed with excitement.
Veil stepped back, getting goosebumps at the sight of Valentis’s blush, who was called the emotionless warrior.
“Wh-what is happening here.”
At those words, Enzo approached with an awkward smile.
“It seems Danzu introduced entertainment from that world.”
“…Huh?”
“They played card games briefly during the day, then switched to some kind of national holiday game from the afternoon…?”
“Tesetan. Do it properly. What are you doing so hesitantly?”
“I’m doing my best here.”
Just then, as Tie’s turn seemed to end, Tesetan’s team, who received the wooden sticks, entered into discussion.
“I saw Tie throw like this. You throw like that too.”
“No, Tesetan. Let’s do a splash throw, a splash throw.”
“Backdo! Backdo! Backdo!”
The sight of Edmund, Tesetan, and Alexander was reminiscent of a strategic meeting on a battlefield.
Tie was circling around the three people, constantly shouting “Backdo!”
“…What is backdo anyway.”
Just as Veil quietly headed toward them.
“Veil. Are you joining?”
Someone quietly approached from the side.
Veil was startled when he turned his head.
Standing next to him was none other than Basto.
“If you’re joining, I’ll join too. It seems we need even numbers to participate in the game.”
“Oh? Veil!”
Just then, Tie, who spotted Veil, came running over.
“Let’s play together! Basto, you join too!”
The two were led by Tie’s hand and awkwardly stepped out to the middle of the deck.
As soon as they arrived, members of each team swept their eyes sharply over the two.
Tesetan was the first to speak.
“…Veil. You come to our side.”
Alexander chimed in from beside him.
“That’s right. Lord Basto’s hands are too big, so he might lack finesse. Lord Veil. Please join this side. You need to throw well.”
Tie puffed out his cheeks.
“Don’t ignore Uncle Basto! Uncle has big hands so he can throw harder and better!”
Tie seated Basto next to him.
“Little one. It’s your turn again.”
Valentis handed the yut sticks to Tie.
Tie jumped up from his seat.
The child took several deep breaths and wiggled his bottom as he took his ready position.
“Tie’s throwing?”
The yut sticks flew up into the air.
“Mo! Mo again! Grandfather! Tie got mo again!”
Behind the delighted child, crimson ripples sparkled.
The red sun was now hanging at the edge of the sea.
Tie, who had been laughing happily, stopped gathering the yut sticks and looked out at the open sea.
The sound of breaking waves seemed like someone’s laughter.
In this moment, he felt no worries, sadness, or fear at all.
He felt his chest full of vitality.
‘I can do it.’
For a happy future where every moment would be like today, it felt like he could really do anything.
“Now, throwing again?”
Tie turned around energetically and stuck his bottom out once more.
Carried by the blowing wind, his family’s laughter covered the entire deck.
The first day of Tie’s first family vacation was coming to an end.
“In one more week, the expedition will land on the Central Continent.”
Two weeks later, at the Talochium Empire’s council meeting.
The Emperor, who had just stamped the imperial seal on the last document, raised his head.
Before him sat nearly twenty court officials.
“It’s fortunate the voyage has been smooth.”
“That’s right. The Empire is peaceful, and with Your Majesty’s support, peace will soon come to the Central Continent as well. It’s truly wonderful.”
The Emperor nodded.
His gaze lingered on Pides for a moment.
Ever since Ardiana’s decision to remain was made.
Pides had been angry with him the entire time.
‘He must think his plan to get rid of Ardiana by sending her to the Central Continent has fallen through.’
Of course, the Emperor wasn’t unaware of Pides’ feelings.
But politics sometimes required taking one step back to advance two steps forward.
“Let’s conclude today’s meeting here.”
As the Emperor stood up, all the officials bowed their heads.
The Emperor, who had opened the meeting room door and come out, headed toward the Imperial Palace with his guards.
Just as he entered the corridor.
Someone appeared from the opposite end.
“Your Majesty!”
The Emperor’s face instantly brightened.
“Lavania?”
Lavania, dressed in a pure white dress, came running busily despite her maids’ attempts to stop her.
Then without a word, she embraced the Emperor.
“Laven…”
The Emperor, who had been speaking, flinched at a stinging sensation he felt at his neck.
However, he smiled after confirming that a bracelet was fastened around Lavania’s wrist.
“Did you come to meet me?”
“Of course. We agreed to have lunch together today. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting?”
“Yes, we did.”
The smiling Emperor began to walk.
He had no idea that Lavania’s eyes watching him were somehow cold.
