A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 295
The skeletons swung their weapons without hesitation.
Thud-! Thud-!
The eyeballs burst one by one, and wet popping sounds echoed through the forest.
Valentis stared at the scene in disbelief.
“…Astie.”
The eyeballs that had put the expedition in danger were being dealt with at rapid speed.
Every time arrows shot forth like rain, the sky was covered in flashes of light.
Valentis’s Adam’s apple moved slowly.
He couldn’t believe that all of this had come from the mind of a four-year-old child.
First deploying summoned creatures that weren’t affected by erosion.
‘Then putting blessed weapons in their hands.’
That was a strategy that couldn’t be conceived simply by reading the flow of battle.
‘You’d have to be able to look at the entire battlefield and yourself within it simultaneously.’
But in this urgent situation.
The child had overcome the crisis with a method that even he, a veteran, hadn’t thought of.
The debris of eyeballs currently pouring from the sky was proof of that.
That’s when it happened.
“Father. We must purify those who have fallen.”
Tesetan, who had rushed over, said.
Valentis turned his gaze and calmly surveyed inside the barrier.
Indeed, now they could recover the forces reduced by injuries.
“Begin purification!”
At his command, the paladins moved in perfect unison.
Alexander, skilled in healing and purification, immediately ran to the Agavert members.
“How is their condition?”
As he channeled holy power and asked, Veil swallowed dryly.
“I, I don’t know. After those eyeballs burst, everyone seems to look better somehow…”
Alexander concentrated instead of answering.
As he flowed purifying energy through his fingertips, he felt the contamination filling the members’ bodies.
However, something was definitely different from before.
“There’s improvement. Purification is proceeding much faster than before. At this rate, they’ll regain consciousness soon.”
Veil’s eyes widened.
He looked back outside the barrier with trembling eyes.
‘Child…’
Tie was still struggling hard against the eyeballs.
However, now there were only a few eyeballs left in the sky.
‘About five or six, maybe…?’
While Veil was thinking, Alexander intensified the purification.
Cold sweat flowed down his forehead, but he couldn’t stop.
If he delayed any longer, permanent damage might remain in the bodies of those who were eroded.
How much time had passed like that?
“Ugh…”
Livia, who had been hit first, opened her eyes.
Then,
“What, I think I got hit by an eyeball while I was distracted for a moment…”
Victor.
“Cough! The leader, gasp, are the others safe?”
Aleric.
“What the hell happened, Veil.”
And even Basto.
“Haah…”
Confirming that everyone was waking up, Veil slumped down in his spot.
He gritted his teeth and shouted.
“Damn it! What’s wrong with you guys! I really thought my heart was going to drop!”
As tension released, strength left his hands and feet.
“Not one by one, but all collapsing like that at once…!”
However, he soon closed his mouth while speaking.
Veil shook his head, steadied his breathing, and stood up.
“Anyway, this isn’t the time to be doing this!”
The members stared at Veil with confused faces.
However, at his next words, everyone’s eyes widened.
“Child is outside the barrier alone!”
Basto’s complexion darkened.
He urgently asked back.
“Tie is alone outside the barrier? What do you mean, Veil.”
Instead of answering, Veil began to move.
Then he answered without looking back.
“Exactly what I said. If it weren’t for Child, we would have all been finished.”
From far beyond them came a thud- sound.
It was a signal that the few remaining eyeballs were being destroyed one by one.
“Child went out alone and summoned bone friends. The skeletons are shooting at those disgusting eyeballs…”
Everyone’s steps gradually came to a stop.
Before them, who had reached the edge of the barrier, a forest completely covered in dark red liquid was spread out.
Basto gulped and muttered.
“…Right. I get the gist of it.”
He could tell what the result of Tie’s battle was without having to hear it.
Everyone regaining consciousness and all.
And the eyeball debris covering everywhere so you couldn’t tell where the ground was…
“Uncle Basto!”
At that moment.
Sure enough, a bright face peeked out from behind the rock on the right that had been blocking their view.
Tie, holding a colorful umbrella, came running toward the members.
“Wow! Everyone’s contamination is gone!”
“Kyuut.”
On the child’s shoulder, Ppupppu nodded arrogantly.
Basto hurriedly ran over and knelt on one knee in front of Tie.
“Tie, are you okay? We should have fought together, but we lost consciousness in an instant…”
“I’m fine!”
Tie answered and put down the umbrella.
Then the umbrella made a poof- sound and transformed into Marbas.
Marbas began rubbing his head against the rock with a disgusted expression.
He undoubtedly wanted to remove the eyeball debris that had concentrated on his head.
Meanwhile, Tie hugged Basto’s neck and smiled like a hero.
Umhahaha. This much is as easy as eating nurungji.”
Was it because he had just finished dealing with the last eyeball?
Joy, achievement, and relief bloomed fluffily like cotton candy in his heart.
Tie, who had been giggling, raised his head.
“But where is Father? Grandfather and uncles must be busy with purification…”
“Tie!”
Just then, someone came running from the distance.
“Father!”
Tie smiled brightly upon confirming Tesetan’s face.
The child ran toward Tesetan and hugged him tightly while saying.
“Look at this! Tie did it all by herself!”
Instead of answering, Tesetan buried his face in the child’s hair.
“Now even if those eyeballs come out again, Tie can handle them! But I don’t like it when jam-like stuff keeps falling from the sky. If Marul transforms into an umbrella…”
“I know, I know. My daughter.”
Tesetan let out a sigh of relief and met Tie’s eyes.
He looked into the child’s round pupils and said.
“Actually, Father watched everything from beginning to end and it was so amazing. But right now, I think we need to get out of here quickly.”
Tie’s lips parted.
“Why? Tie got rid of all the eyeball monsters.”
After thinking for a moment, Tesetan answered.
“Well, I have a bad feeling.”
“A feeling?”
“Yeah. Father’s feeling is that the energy around here isn’t good. Actually, that’s why I was late. I was looking around the area.”
Tie’s expression became serious.
It was true that Tie had eliminated all the eyeballs, but Father was a skilled mercenary.
If such a father said he had a bad feeling,
‘I should listen to Father.’
The child nodded.
“Okay!”
After answering, Tie quickly came down from her father’s embrace.
Then she energetically began walking first toward where Valentis and the Paladins were.
Behind them, the sound of members exchanging brief conversations could be heard.
“But what kind of monsters were those eyeballs anyway?”
“I don’t know either. I’ve never seen anything like that even on the North Continent.”
“Light vulnerability maybe? Seeing how easily they burst from holy weapons…”
“Huh?”
That’s when it happened.
Tie, who had been walking, stopped for some reason.
Accordingly, Tesetan and the members also stopped in place.
“Father, uncles. Look at that.”
Tie pointed somewhere while narrowing her white brow.
Veil, who turned his gaze there, tilted his head.
“What are you telling us to look at? It’s just ground.”
“No, look.”
Tie quickly ran over there.
Then she crouched down and looked closely at the ground covered with eyeball debris.
“Something’s moving here…”
At that moment.
“Tie, get away!”
Lucalion, who flew from somewhere, pulled Tie sharply toward the group.
At the same time, the remnants that had surged up as if to devour Tie fell back to the ground with a thud.
“Wh-what…”
While Tie was opening her mouth and widening her eyes.
Gurgle, glug-
An ominous sound rang in the group’s ears.
“…Everyone step back.”
At Tesetan’s words as he held Tie in his arms, the members took defensive positions.
Before them.
The remnants covering the floor were slowly gathering in one place.
They intertwined with each other and grew tall like a tower, then soon transformed into a single form.
“…Huh?”
Tie’s eyes widened.
A slender build.
Sunken cheeks and dark eye areas.
Even the hostile gaze directed at Tie.
Tie swallowed and asked.
“…Mel?”
There was no mistake.
Mel Lucien, who had escaped from the Underground Labyrinth,
was standing before the members at this moment.
