A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 326
Daren trembled violently as he looked down below.
Then he screamed.
“Ah, ahhhhh!”
Human bones that had sprouted from the ground were gripping his ankles.
Not just one, but dozens of them.
“Sk, Skeletons! Skeletons!”
Daren’s eyes rolled back as he frantically tried to pull his feet free, but it was useless.
The skeletal fingers were much sturdier than expected.
It was a cold and tenacious force, as if they had been writhing underground for ages before bursting forth.
“Ahhhhh! Ahhh!”
Daren hurriedly tried to draw up his magic power again.
But this time, both his hands stopped abruptly in mid-air as if caught on something.
“What is this now!”
Daren’s pupils shook violently as he turned his head.
Blue, cold smoke-like things were wrapped around both his wrists.
[He made Master angry.]
[Tie him up.]
[Let’s drag him to Hell.]
[He made Master sad.]
Whispering voices tickled his ears.
Daren stared at the child in dismay.
“Hammer. Tie told you!”
The child looked up at Daren with an extremely serious expression.
“Hammer’s power isn’t clean or strong! You can’t beat Tie anyway.”
Cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
Just as the child said, the magic power he drew up kept leaking into thin air.
The child approached Daren.
Seeing the sphere of magic power in those hands, much larger and more solid than before, Daren gulped.
“Wh, what exactly are you planning to do to me…!”
His gaze anxiously fixed on the child.
“Su, surely you’re not planning to attack me with that? Huh? Say it’s not true!”
He immediately changed his attitude and made a servile expression.
I only did it because I wanted to live! You were blocking the path when I needed to escape immediately!”
“…”
“And listen, as an Elder of this Village, I have a duty to maintain the Village’s order…!”
“Hmph. Excuses.”
But the child turned away sharply.
At the same time, something suddenly sprouted right in front of Daren’s nose.
“Ahhhhhhhhh-!”
Daren swayed as if he would fall backward at the skull thrust before his eyes.
Meanwhile, the skull quietly raised one hand and covered Daren’s mouth.
“Get it away! Remove this! Get this away…!”
His voice leaked through the gaps between the bone joints, but Tie didn’t budge.
The child lowered their gaze to stare at the magic power in their palm.
Then small spheres of light began breaking off in chunks from that large mass.
Livia, who had been reassuring the maids, turned to look this way.
“Miss, what are you trying to do?”
Tie checked the Fortress Wall where the collapse had subsided and said.
“Mm-hmm, Tie doesn’t have time, so Tie will leave the bad Elder to the sisters!”
Then dozens of split magic spheres flowed toward the maids and Rollan.
Tie approached Rollan.
“Sister, does it hurt a lot?”
Rollan moved her lips wordlessly, having lost her voice.
At that moment, when Tie placed a hand on Rollan’s right cheek, the wound smoothly healed.
Rollan’s voice came out trembling.
“Who, who exactly are you…?”
“Look, see this?”
But the child didn’t answer the question.
Instead, Tie spun around one of the round spheres floating in front of Rollan.
“If this hits you, it hurts really, really bad.”
Rollan’s eyelashes trembled.
“This hurts?”
Tie’s eyes widened as they glanced toward Daren behind them.
“Mmph! Mmmmph!”
Daren was still bound and glaring at Tie.
The child placed one sphere in Rollan’s hand.
Hesitating, Rollan weakly pushed the sphere forward.
“…Good heavens.”
The sphere floated up like a small ball.
Then it precisely struck Daren’s left buttock.
Thunk-
It was such a small sound that one might wonder if it would even hurt.
However.
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
One second later, when the sphere crackled and sent out a shallow electric current, a scream burst from Daren’s mouth.
Tie jumped up from their spot and shouted at Daren.
“You bad Elder! Where is Veil!”
Daren’s face was colored with bewilderment.
Though no wound formed, the spot touched by the sphere stung and hurt as if burned by fire.
When he made “mmph, mmph” sounds, the Skeleton removed the hand that had been blocking him.
Daren answered while panting.
“How, how would I know that! I don’t even know who Veil is… Ahhhhh!”
At that moment.
One of the maids who had been watching from the corner also threw the ball Tie had given her at Daren.
Tears welled up in Daren’s eyes as he was hit in the calf.
Livia clicked her tongue.
“Pathetic, pathetic. At that age, hanging there tied up and getting beaten.”
“I am, ahhh! Ahh!”
As the other maids gained courage and began throwing balls one by one, the screaming from Daren’s mouth grew louder.
“Veil is really pretty! So hurry up and remember!”
Tears streamed from Daren’s eyes as he heard Tie’s shout.
“So how would I…?”
He closed his mouth mid-sentence.
Come to think of it, Veil… Veilly.
He recalled a Performer whose name was similar to what the child had said.
That Woman who was the root of all this trouble.
Daren lifted his head with a start.
“If it’s Veil… surely not that Performer?”
“Performer! Yes, that’s right, performer!”
Livia approached with a bright face.
“She’s still inside? What on earth happened to make the fortress wall collapse? What happened inside? Can we go in now?”
Daren’s eyes rolled around dizzily.
He soon came to his senses and answered.
“That’s… well!”
He gulped at the maids’ cold stares.
“Th-that performer provoked the High Priest inside! She kept running her mouth, saying she couldn’t believe the High Priest’s power…!”
Daren made a tearful face.
“The High Priest completely destroyed one of the banquet hall’s pillars! So the banquet hall came crashing down. I barely managed to escape, that performer might have been crushed to death under there!”
The maids stirred restlessly.
However, Livia and Aleric looked at each other without any serious expression.
“This is ridiculous?”
Livia furrowed her brow.
“We even showed him the key to quietly slip out, so why did he have to provoke Croize?”
Aleric also let out a sigh.
“Exactly. He didn’t seem that oblivious.”
“Then where did the High Priest go?”
At that moment, Tie asked.
Daren continued while catching his breath.
“Well… until just before I ran away, he was rampaging around saying this wasn’t enough, that he’d show something even more amazing.”
He blinked his sweat-soaked eyes.
“I don’t know what happened after that. Maybe he got buried under the debris along with the performer…”
That’s when it happened.
Crash-!
The fortress wall shook once more and a fierce noise covered the backyard.
At the same time, someone stumbled out through the gap in the collapsed backdoor.
It was Veil, covered head to toe in dirt and dust on his hair and clothes.
“Ugh, I’m alive…!”
Tie’s eyes widened at the sight of him throwing off his upper garment.
“Brother Veil!”
Daren’s eyes went wide.
His gaze swept over Veil’s unbelievable face and exposed bare chest.
Meanwhile, Veil dusted off his hands, then propped himself on his knees and jerked his head up.
“Y-you stupid brat! How was that supposed to be a key!”
Tie, who had run over, gaped open-mouthed.
“I thought you were telling me to hit someone hard on the head with a hammer! So I got ready for battle and waited, but no one came!”
“…”
The garden was enveloped in silence.
Livia and Aleric simultaneously covered their faces.
“Good heavens.”
“No wonder, so that’s why…”
Tie scratched her head.
“That’s strange. Tie definitely asked you to make a key…”
The Pompoms that followed Veil out made rustling sounds as they hid around Tie.
Sighing, Veil got to his feet.
“Forget it, let’s talk about that later. More importantly, about Croize, he’s like a complete monster…”
At that moment, a low rumbling vibration was felt from inside the fortress wall.
Dust began rising from beneath the debris of the collapsed backdoor.
