A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 370

“The village! Let’s stop by our village!”

Tie raised one hand high and answered.

The child’s green eyes sparkled brightly.

“Let’s stop by the village to go to the pub, and make new friends too!”

Veil burst into laughter.

“You little one, you’re thinking about when you went to Caldenbain Ridge before, aren’t you?”

Tie nodded her head vigorously.

“Mm-hmm!”

Caldenbain Ridge.

It had been well over 10 years since they punished the bad lord in that small village.

Nevertheless, that incident remained as vivid as yesterday in Tie’s memory.

“It was so much fun back then! Adelin made juice for us at the pub, and I got a gem when we left!”

“A gem? Ah! That amber!”

Veil slapped his knee.

“I remember! On the last day, that village kid gave you a gem and said what? Didn’t he ask you to be his boyfriend?”

“Mm-hmm. He did.”

Tie made a wistful expression.

“Back then, our realities didn’t match, so we couldn’t develop into a serious relationship.”

“What? What’s that supposed to mean, Miss? I want to know too!”

Livia, who couldn’t possibly know about events that happened before the merger with Trevaga, lit up with curiosity.

Veil leaned against one side of the carriage and let out a hollow laugh.

“Still ridiculous when I think about it. That kid’s name was Jen, right? I still remember it.”

“Why do you call him ‘that kid,’ Veil? Jen was a cool and kind boy. He was brave enough to step back even though he liked Tie.”

“Hahaha, I’m sure he was! What did you say back then, little one? That you were too busy with your job characteristics to date? Something about considering reality… Pfft, hahahaha!”

“Veil.”

“Huh?”

“You don’t understand anything. You don’t know the frustrating and loving heart blocked by the wall of reality even though we liked each other.”

“What?”

“Listen.”

Livia made a sniffling sound while holding back laughter.

However, Tie continued speaking with a completely serious face.

“Tie didn’t have time back then. But now I have time. There are no demons, no magic stones, and I found my memories too.”

“So?”

“Now that everything is resolved, time is blocking our path.”

“Time?”

“Jen must be all grown up now. Tie just turned six after fixing the timeline!”

Veil made an “ah” sound and opened his mouth.

Then he nodded his head.

“That’s… that’s right. You’re right, little one.”

During the time Tie lost her memory, her time had stopped.

Unlike everyone else’s time, which had steadily flowed on.

“By now, Jen must be happily living with another girlfriend. The kids from the preparatory school in Flint Cove have already become adults and made new friends.”

The inside of the carriage became quiet.

It was because they remembered Tie’s ‘commotion to get back her preparatory school friends’ from a few weeks ago.

Livia looked at Tie with sympathetic eyes.

‘Come to think of it, she was very upset back then.’

Was it about a month after she regained her memories?

Tie wanted to find the friends from the preparatory school she secretly attended in Flint Cove.

She said those kids were the only ‘peers’ she had made since coming to this world, so she was curious about how they were all doing.

‘She looked forward to it day and night.’

Tie seemed to hope for a touching reunion with her old friends.

It seemed like she wanted to catch up after meeting them again, and also wanted to boast that she was actually a princess.

However, Tie’s such dreams were not fulfilled.

It was because revealing Tie’s circumstances to the outside world was realistically impossible.

Not only that?

Most of those kids had already grown up so much that they couldn’t even remember their preparatory school days.

When Tie heard about the situation, her face clearly showed signs of heartbreak.

She apparently cried to Marshal, saying ‘Why does Tie always have to lose friends? I lost my Hanbit Kindergarten friends, and I lost my Flint Cove friends too.’

‘It would have been a disaster if not for Selina.’

The one who comforted Tie was Selina, who lived in the mansion opposite Rosewerbel Street.

Selina was busy with engagement preparations recently, but she came to find Tie immediately after hearing the news.

Then, as she had often done before, she chatted with Tie like 12 years ago, ate snacks with her, lay down like a child in front of the fireplace, laughed heartily, and then said:

‘Tie. Regardless of the flow of time, the fact that we’re friends will never change forever.’

‘…’

‘Look. I’ve grown up like this, but when I play with you, it’s still exactly the same as back then.’

After hearing those words, Tie seemed to realize something.

Then from the next day, her expression became much better.

It was the result of accepting the time gap that had formed between herself and the world as a small change rather than a complete loss.

“Tie will make them again! I’ll make friends again, and go to preparatory school again…”

“Little one. Preparatory school is difficult. His Majesty the Emperor said it’s safer for royals to receive individual instruction from palace tutors.”

“Whatever.”

Tie waved one hand dismissively with a sulky expression.

Then she said solemnly.

“Tie will have a social life too! So let’s depart for the village!”

Basto nodded and gave Tie a thumbs up.

They were able to reach the village that Tie so wanted to visit around lunchtime on the third day after departure.

“Ugh, I’m stiff.”

Veil, who had taken turns with Basto driving the horses, stretched.

Rivaa leaned against the carriage and slowly surveyed the village entrance visible down the hill.

Aleric, who was rummaging through something in the cargo hold, said:

“Found it. I think this is it?”

What he pulled out was a bundle that Marshal had carefully wrapped and loaded into the cargo hold.

“Marshal really. She packed everything. Veil! Basto! Come change clothes.”

At Livia’s voice, Veil and Basto trudged over.

“What? It’s just clothes?”

“They’re not just clothes. They’re activity clothes.”

At the mention of activity clothes, Tie, who had been looking down the hill, came running over.

“Tie wants to see too! Activity clothes!”

Inside the opened bundle were several sets of everyday clothes commonly worn by commoners.

Not only had Marshal neatly folded the clothes, but she had also left small notes indicating whose clothes were whose.

“Let’s see.”

Aleric unfolded the largest note placed on top of the pile of clothes and read it aloud.

“Since this is supposed to be an inspection, and I heard that appearance is important during inspections. I thought proper activities would be impossible if people knew you were from the Imperial Palace, so I took care to prepare these.”

Veil furrowed his brow.

“That’s true. But even so, why are there so many clothes…”

“With that combination, and especially while bringing the Princess along, the best disguise would naturally be a family… family?”

“What? Family?”

Aleric, who had been reading the note, paused, and Veil asked back with a surprised face.

Soon he snatched the note away from Aleric.

“Aleric and Lady Livia should pretend to be a married couple. The Princess will naturally be their only daughter. Lord Veil and Lord Basto should be uncles… What! You didn’t tell us there would be this kind of setup!”

Veil threw the note away as if he was getting goosebumps.

Basto picked up the note with a curious face and read it carefully.

Meanwhile, Livia was rummaging through the pile of clothes with a somewhat displeased expression.

“I have to be married to Aleric? What’s this, the clothes for him and me are all similar colors too.”

“Uncle Aleric and Aunt Livia are wearing couple outfits!”

Only Tie was excitedly bouncing up and down in her spot.

That’s when it happened.

“Let’s just do it.”

Aleric began taking off the cloak he was wearing with a calm expression.

“Whether here or after we arrive at the disaster region, we’re going to attract attention no matter what.”

The members looked at Basto.

Well, that was true.

No matter how much the other members pretended to be ordinary, attention would definitely be focused on Basto with his mountain-like build.

“We need to pretend we’re on a family trip to draw less suspicion. For that, the combination the Marshal suggested is the most plausible.”

“Then Tie can call you Father from now on, right? Father!”

Tie giggled and hugged Aleric around the waist.

Veil grumbled as he picked up his clothes.

“Ugh, damn it. I’d prefer being called big brother rather than uncle…”

Livia immediately frowned.

“Hey! Are you going to keep saying disgusting things like that?! I’d rather die than be your mother!”

She turned away from the grumbling Veil and looked down at her own clothes with troubled eyes.
