A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 316

 

“Hahaha!”

 

Eura burst into laughter.

 

She hugged Tie face to face and patted her back gently.

 

“Yes. Make sure to wrinkle me up again later!”

 

Tie was rubbing her reddened eyes and nodding her head.

 

“Child! If you’re done, let’s get going!”

 

Veil shouted from behind.

 

“Coming right away!”

 

Tie quickly replied and also approached Leandro, who was beside Eura.

 

“Grandfather Lerro, Tie has been in your debt so much.”

 

The child fidgeted with both hands and cautiously looked up at him.

 

“And… I’m sorry for not taking proper care of Kangchong…”

 

Just as her voice was trailing off.

 

“Oh my, haven’t you heard yet?”

 

Leandro’s eyes widened and he chuckled.

 

“That rabbit didn’t die. It just lost consciousness temporarily under Serafina’s power. I treated it right away that day.”

 

“Really…?!”

 

Tie’s eyes grew wide.

 

The child covered her mouth with both hands and bounced up and down in place.

 

“Kangchong was alive! Kamang! Kangchong was alive!”

 

Lucalion, who was organizing Tie’s luggage in the distance, turned his head.

 

Tie rushed over to Lucalion.

 

“Aren’t you happy? Your sibling came back to life!”

 

Lucalion froze momentarily.

 

Then he frowned with one eyebrow and looked back at Tie.

 

“Sibling? That rabbit?”

 

“Gasp.”

 

Tie stared at Lucalion as if she couldn’t believe it.

 

The child soon crossed her arms and spoke seriously.

 

“Kamang. Why do you think Tie named the rabbit Kangchong?”

 

“Why?”

 

“Because!”

 

Tie lifted her chin and showed a proud smile at the corner of her mouth.

 

“Tie is also an only child like you, Kamang, so she knows the sadness of not having siblings.”

 

Lucalion closed his mouth.

 

Tie continued speaking with a giggle.

 

“Tie wanted to make a sibling for you, Kamang. It would be nice to have a cute sibling like Kangchong, right? And siblings originally use matching names!”

 

“Matching names?”

 

“Yes! Kamang and Kangchong! Kang-kang matching names!”

 

“Wait a minute.”

 

Veil, who had been watching with interest, approached.

 

“Is that right, child? The first letters are different.”

 

“Huh?”

 

Tie looked up at Veil as if bewildered.

 

“What’s different about them. Kamang’s ‘ka’, Kangchong’s ‘kang’… Gasp, they are different?”

 

Watching Tie muttering ‘ka… kang…’ and looking serious, Lucalion let out a small sigh.

 

At that moment, Marbas quietly poked his head out from Tie’s preschool bag.

 

“Excuse me, if I may.”

 

He continued while watching Lucalion’s reaction.

 

“Looking at it, it seems like Master thinks of Lord Lucalion as some kind of pet.”

 

“Kyuhup! Kyuhuhuhuhhat!”

 

Ppupppu, who was sitting on the camping supplies, lay down and burst into laughter.

 

Lucalion ignored it with his eyes tightly closed, but Marbas continued speaking.

 

“You have a proper name, but she doesn’t call you by it properly, and now she’s even making you sworn siblings with a rabbit…”

 

“Kyahahat! Kyuheup! Kyuhik!”

 

Ppupppu, who was rolling around, fell below the box.

 

However, without showing any sign of pain, he came next to Marbas and tapped Marbas’s head with his trunk as if praising him.

 

Confidence filled Marbas’s expression.

 

“Ahem! There’s something called drama in Master’s world, and they say this there. The legal wife guards the house, but the concubine receives the favor!”

 

Marbas stared at Lucalion with an arrogant face.

 

“Unfortunately, it seems the order of being loved isn’t the same as the order of becoming Master’s aide, Lord Lucalion.”

 

“Kyahahak, kyuhat!”

 

Ppupppu burst into exaggerated laughter once more and banged the ground with his trunk.

 

Then Lucalion, who had been silent the whole time, turned around.

 

“L-Lord Lucalion? Where are you going?”

 

“…Kyut! Kyuwoot?!”

 

Voices calling from behind could be heard, but Lucalion didn’t look back.

 

He silently headed to the basement of the temple and began collecting the remaining items Tie had dropped.

 

“Lucalion.”

 

Someone’s voice calling from behind could be heard.

 

When Lucalion turned his head, Basto was standing at the doorway.

 

“Are you okay.”

 

Lucalion froze for a moment.

 

Basto averted his gaze unnecessarily and continued speaking.

 

“Tie calling you Kamang is probably because she’s still young…”

 

“I’m fine, so don’t worry about it.”

 

Basto closed his mouth.

 

Lucalion picked up the blanket and bear doll orb that Tie had dropped and said.

 

“Legal wife or concubine. There’s no way I’d take such nonsensical words to heart.”

 

Thud, thud.

 

The sound of brushing off cookie crumbs from the blanket echoed in the room.

 

“What? You’re not loved in the order you joined? It’s pathetic and childish beyond measure.”

 

The blanket slowly crumpled in Lucalion’s hands.

 

“It wasn’t worth responding to.”

 

He passed by Basto and disappeared up the stairs with large strides.

 

Behind Basto, who was watching that scene.

 

Someone peeked their head out from inside the room.

 

“…He’s sulking.”

 

It was Livia, who had just woken up with disheveled hair.

 

She scratched the top of her head vigorously and added.

 

“Living long enough to see even a spirit sulk… the world has gotten interesting, yeah.”

 

“Then goodbye!”

 

Tie’s voice echoed through the forest.

 

“Goodbye Eura Grandmother! Goodbye Grandfather Lerro and Priest Uncles too! Kangchong too, everyone goodbye!”

 

Tie wiped away the tears that had formed in her eyes.

 

Thanks to the shrine repairing all the damaged carts, the expedition could proceed much more smoothly.

 

When Eura and the priests were no longer visible, Tie weakly lowered her hand.

 

“Parting is really difficult…”

 

As she sprawled out on the wagon, Raul and Enzo walking beside her smiled.

 

“To already understand the weight of parting. How remarkable.”

 

Tie pouted her lips as she replied.

 

“It’s not remarkable. I told you before, Tie has known this since she was three.”

 

Raul’s eyes widened.

 

“My goodness, is that so?”

 

“Yeah. Tie has met many people and said goodbye to them too. I’m five years old now.”

 

The unit members burst into laughter one after another.

 

Tie patted the bag in her arms for no particular reason.

 

The sound of wind brushing past her ears.

 

The pleasant scent of grass and the warm sunlight shining down.

 

‘The weather is so nice.’

 

Because of the unresolved matters, anxiety still settled in one corner of her heart.

 

“I hope it ends quickly…”

 

Tie muttered gloomily.

 

Whether aware of Tie’s worries or not, the sky remained endlessly blue.

 

And so, several days later.

 

Rumble crash-!

 

The forest shook from the fierce thunder striking down.

 

“Damn, what kind of rain keeps falling for two straight days…?”

 

Veil muttered while looking outside the cave.

 

Aleric, who was drying his wet clothes, let out a sigh.

 

“It’s true that we’re being delayed. We don’t have much food either.”

 

“Will it stop tomorrow?”

 

“Who knows. We can only hope so.”

 

With the unit members’ brief conversation ended, silence descended upon the cave.

 

Then, Tie, who was crouched down with her whole body wrapped in Tesetan’s uniform, spoke.

 

“Father, if the rain stops tomorrow, can we continue on our way?”

 

Tesetan made a hmm sound.

 

“Well. First the ground needs to dry before we can move, I think.”

 

“Oh no. I see…”

 

Tie recalled the path they had traveled.

 

This entire surrounding area consisted of steep slopes.

 

That was also the reason why the expedition continuing their march had no choice but to enter the cave.

 

‘They said it would be terrible if a landslide happened.’

 

The continuously dropping body temperature was also a problem.

 

Actually, the body temperature issue could be solved by deploying a barrier to block the rain, but,

 

‘Since we don’t know when demons might appear, we need to conserve our strength.’

 

The situation was too serious to waste full power on trivial matters.

 

At the thought that they might have to stay here for a while, Tie let out a sigh.

 

At that moment.

 

“Your Excellency!”

 

Just then, a paladin who had gone out to scout the surroundings entered the cave entrance.

 

“I think you need to see this!”

 

The people who were sitting got up from their seats one by one.

 

Cold raindrops were dripping down from the paladin’s entire body.

 

“I found this not far away, but the condition is a bit…”

 

The paladin set down something he had been carrying on his shoulder onto the ground.

 

Tie’s mouth gradually opened as she looked at it.

 

“Oh my, that’s a person…?”

 

The unconscious figure with a pale face was a young woman.

 

Soon after, Tie turned her gaze to the woman’s hair and gulped.

 

For some reason, the woman’s hair was cut in a mess as if it had been hacked at.

 

Faint blood showed in the rainwater seeping from the woman’s body.
