A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 355
Tie ran toward Tesetan with an excited face.
However, seeing the unfamiliar child standing beside him, she hesitated and stopped in her tracks.
“Huh?”
Next to Tesetan stood a girl who was about a hand’s width taller than Tie.
Her neatly combed hair sparkled in the sunlight, and the hem of her ribbon-tied dress fluttered gently.
‘She’s pretty…’
It was almost the first time seeing someone her age since coming to the Imperial Palace.
Of course, she had encountered children of similar age a few times before…
‘No. That kid isn’t Tie’s friend.’
Tie shook her head back and forth.
Then she carefully examined the girl in front of her again.
For some reason, she felt a strange familiarity from the child.
Even though it was a face she was seeing for the first time, it felt as if she already knew her?
It was when Tie was fidgeting and gauging the situation.
“Tie.”
Tesetan called Tie gently.
“Would you like to say hello? She’s my friend’s daughter, and her name is Selina.”
Selina smiled brightly.
Selina took a step toward Tie as if they had made a promise.
“Hello!”
Tie’s lips parted at the kind voice.
Selina gestured toward the area behind Tie.
“I just saw that a tiger and elephant were having a wedding ceremony.”
Tie gulped.
“It looked fun! Could I perhaps attend as a guest too?”
The tips of Tie’s ears turned red.
The child rolled her eyes for a moment, unable to say anything.
And at the same time.
Everyone in the carriage held their breath in unison.
“Why isn’t she answering, Child! She’s not usually such a timid personality either…!”
“Be quiet, Veil. And Tie is originally that kind of personality. She’s only sweet to adults.”
Basto, Veil, and Ripper were sitting squeezed in with the spirits, anxiously watching outside the window.
Veil turned around with an anxious face.
“The operation won’t fail at this rate, will it? What if Child says she won’t play with the Trading Guild child…?”
Basto put his index finger to his lips.
“Shh. Wait a bit, Veil.”
Veil, who made groaning sounds, slightly pulled back the curtain again.
Indeed, after a moment.
“…Okay!”
Tie, who had been hesitating, said.
Then she twisted her body and asked Selina.
“Then, shall we play inside?”
“Yes!”
Veil shook his fist in the air.
“It worked, it worked!”
A sigh of relief also flowed from Basto’s mouth.
Marbas jumped around and shouted.
“As expected, I knew Miss Selina would succeed! This Marbas’s best friend strategy worked!”
“…Hmph!”
Meanwhile, Tie and Selina began walking toward the Princess’s Palace.
When the two children had gotten quite far away.
Those inside the carriage exchanged glances with each other.
“Shall we get out for now?”
“Yes. I’m about to suffocate to death.”
The spirits poured out of the carriage first.
Veil, Basto, and Ripper, who got out afterward, were drenched in sweat in just a short time.
Tesetan looked them over with a displeased expression.
“…Instead of hiding in that cramped carriage, couldn’t you have just moved away?”
Veil glared at Tesetan with resentful eyes.
“Because we’re curious! Regent, no, Your Excellency Uncle, do you understand our feelings? Anyway!”
Veil looked around at Basto and the spirits.
“From now on, we follow them making as little noise as possible. First, let’s go around to the back…”
“Wait.”
Tesetan blocked Veil’s path with a surprised face.
“Where exactly are you planning to follow?”
Veil’s eyes widened.
“Where are we following? Obviously to the Princess’s Palace where Child is.”
Tesetan narrowed his brow and let out a hollow laugh.
“Veil. Even if it’s you, you can’t just enter the Princess’s Palace.”
“What?”
“What was agreed upon beforehand was just letting Selina meet with Tie, wasn’t it? You never mentioned entering the Princess’s Palace.”
Veil’s lips parted.
Soon he made an indignant expression.
“Your Excellency Uncle! Are you really going to be like this?!”
He stared at Tesetan with eyes full of betrayal.
“You know what kind of state Basto and I have been in for the past 6 months! And you’re being this heartless?”
Tesetan closed his mouth.
“We’re not strangers, and we should at least know what Child is thinking, right?”
Silence fell.
However, Tesetan soon made a short groaning sound.
“Still, appearances matter, and if Tie notices…”
“We just won’t get caught!”
Tesetan hesitated.
He seemed to contemplate for a moment, but soon made a stern expression.
“Still, no.”
Veil’s eyes widened.
Tesetan continued as if he had no choice.
“There was an order from His Majesty the Emperor. To strictly manage the personnel entering and leaving the Princess’s Palace.”
Veil’s eyes grew large.
“Of course I understand your feelings well. I also know that you’re not a dangerous person. But still, I can’t let you in without proper procedures…”
That’s when it happened.
“Cadia, please move aside!”
“Your Majesty! I told you not to run!”
Suddenly, the garden entrance became noisy.
When Tesetan turned around, Ardiana was urgently running into the garden.
“Your Majesty! What if you hurt your ankle…!”
“This isn’t the time to worry about my ankle!”
Having rushed so urgently, the crown Ardiana wore was already crooked.
She caught her breath and looked at Tesetan with a pleased expression.
“Tesetan!”
“Your Majesty?”
Tesetan frowned.
Ardiana hurriedly ran to him and gestured toward the Princess Palace Rear Gate.
“Miss Selina came, didn’t she? To ask about our Tie’s true feelings?”
“No, how did you…?”
“I have my ways of knowing everything.”
Ardiana breathed heavily with a flushed face.
Then she looked around at Basto, Veil, and the spirits who were frozen in place.
“You’re all here too. Perfect. Come along.”
Tesetan opened his mouth.
He approached Ardiana with a bewildered expression.
“No, Your Majesty…”
“Later, later.”
However, Ardiana waved her hand dismissively and began walking with large strides without listening to him.
A smile slowly spread across Veil’s previously stiff face.
“Well then, shall we?”
He grinned smugly and hurriedly followed behind Ardiana.
Basto also glanced at Tesetan before quietly moving his steps.
“…Your Highness. Are you alright?”
Ripper asked cautiously.
Tesetan remained frozen in place, moving his lips as if bewildered.
“No. I clearly told them not to let just anyone enter the Princess Palace…”
“Regent!”
But that wasn’t the end of it.
Someone else entered at the garden entrance.
Tesetan’s brow furrowed once more.
“Livia? No, even you guys…”
Livia and Aleric, Raul and Enzo, and even Victor.
“Miss is meeting Selina? I heard the first greeting was successful?!”
“How did you…?”
Livia waved the communication device in her hand.
“So where is it? Where should we go?”
“Livia. I think it’s this way!”
Victor, who had already turned toward the Princess Palace Rear Gate, waved his hand.
Livia hurriedly followed behind Victor.
Then she turned back to look at Tesetan with an “oh right” expression.
“See you later then?!”
Tesetan remained frozen in place, watching the scene in a daze.
A moment of silence followed.
“…Stay strong, Your Highness.”
Ripper, who had cautiously approached, whispered quietly.
Meanwhile.
Small Reception Room in the Princess Palace.
Sunlight streaming through the window warmly colored the air.
In the midst of it, the laughter of two children rang out cheerfully.
“Wahaha! It’s a clear blue sky!”
“Pretty, right? I drew it well, didn’t I?”
“Mm-hmm!”
Tie, who had relaxed by now, looked at Selina with a bright face.
“Here, you draw too!”
Selina held out colored pencils to Tie.
Tie giggled and took the colored pencils from Selina.
Then while drawing a star, she leaned her head on Selina’s shoulder and burst into laughter again.
“Look at this, Tie really drew badly! Isn’t that poop instead of a star? Hahaha!”
“Hehehe, it really looks like poop!”
The two children looked at each other intently before clutching their stomachs and falling over with laughter.
How long did they laugh?
When Tie raised her head, there were even tears in the corners of her eyes.
“Hihi, playing with a friend is so fun!”
At Tie’s words, Selina also sat up.
“Really? Don’t you have any other friends here?”
Tie closed her mouth.
The child’s expression, which had been quiet for a moment, became serious.
“Actually… there is one!”
Selina’s eyes widened at Tie’s suddenly lowered voice.
“There is? Who is it?”
Tie looked around unnecessarily.
Then, as if telling a major secret, she whispered in Selina’s ear.
“A kid with black hair like this and red eyes…”
Tie’s eyes became very meaningful.
“I’ve seen them a few times inside the bushes!”
