A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 387
“Come out! Hurry up and come out!”
“Here, grab my hand!”
The backyard of the Lord’s Castle.
The attic door leading to a small shed rattled incessantly.
The soldiers who had escaped first were supporting the door while reaching out their hands to those who hadn’t made it out yet.
“Quickly! There are still more people down there!”
“The, the ladder collapsed! Lower the rope first!”
That’s when it happened.
The shed door burst open and someone rushed inside.
“Astie!”
“Child!”
They were Agavert Members who had hurriedly run over following Berte’s guidance.
“Damn, what he meant by ‘another door’…”
Veil muttered while looking down at the small attic door pierced through the floor.
Meanwhile, Livia strode boldly through the crowd of soldiers.
“Hey, have you seen a tiny child?! A child carrying an elephant doll and wooden toys!”
The soldiers all looked at each other with bewildered faces.
Seeing their reaction, Aleric also stepped forward.
“He has light blonde hair. Green eyes, and his clothes are…”
“Well I’ll be!”
But then.
A soldier who had just crawled up from below the attic door glared at the unit members.
“Who are you people! Who do you think you are asking us if we’ve seen some kid? We are Norbert Baron’s soldiers, and we’re currently on duty!”
Livia closed her mouth.
The brows of Basto and Veil, who were standing three steps behind, also furrowed in the same way.
However, the soldier thrust his face toward Aleric with an even more menacing expression.
“It’s only because a monster appeared that we’re letting this slide, otherwise you’d all be heading straight to the underground prison! So don’t interfere and get lost right now! We don’t care about whatever kid you’re looking for!”
Having shouted that, he spat thin saliva on the floor.
“How dare you raise your voices at Norbert Baron’s soldiers? Looking like beggars who just rolled around in a mud pit…”
Livia’s eyebrows trembled slightly.
Slowly, her hand moved down to her waist.
‘If they’re going to act this way, there’s no choice.’
This was an urgent situation.
Rather than forcing this situation to drag on, it would be better to subdue them with force and resolve it.
But before her hand could even reach her sword hilt.
“There’s no need for that, Livia.”
Suddenly, a familiar voice was heard from above.
The soldiers all looked up at once.
“Who are you… Ugh!”
The next moment.
Someone landed on top of the soldier who had been threatening Livia and Aleric.
Fluid movements.
Quick suppression and the strength to pin down a large soldier to the floor in one go.
The surroundings stirred.
Several soldiers drew their swords in panic.
Meanwhile, the man raised his head that had been lowered.
His black hair fluttered, revealing sharp eyes.
“No need to waste energy here.”
A hollow laugh escaped from Livia’s mouth.
The man, Tesetan, spoke.
“You’ll have to roll around excitedly soon enough anyway.”
Then the soldiers who recognized Tesetan’s face froze in place one by one.
“No way, that, that person is…”
“It can’t be!”
“If you recognize me, what are you doing not prostrating yourselves!”
In terms of recognition, Tesetan was ahead of Ardiana.
Tesetan clicked his tongue at the soldiers who were hastily prostrating themselves.
Then he spoke to Aleric in a dry voice.
“Aleric. Take all of them outside and line them up in front of the castle.”
He turned his head to Livia.
“Livia, you go down below and send up the remaining people one by one. Injured first. Disarm them.”
The soldiers murmured among themselves even while prostrated.
Meanwhile, Tesetan walked toward the shed door.
He gave brief orders to the imperial soldiers who were waiting.
“From now on, we’ll break down the eastern wall. After that, dig next to the attic door to widen the passage. We need to organize the round-trip routes.”
The imperial soldiers nodded in unison.
With the situation being organized immediately, Basto and Veil stood frozen in place with bewildered faces.
Then Tesetan turned around.
“We’re going to the square.”
Veil frowned.
“The square? That’s where the refugees were gathered. Why there…”
Tesetan waved the communication device he was holding.
“Because Tie is moving in that direction.”
After a brief silence, he added.
“Of course, the problem is that the monster will also emerge in that direction.”
Meanwhile, a little while ago.
“Ma, Master! The path is blocked!”
Tie looked at Marbas, who was making a fuss while dangling from Krazaru.
“What should we do?! It will definitely take ages to clear all these stones! No wait, if the exit collapses even more while we’re clearing the stones…”
Marbas flopped down on the floor.
His wooden body rolled around on the dusty floor.
“This Marbas was too complacent! As Master’s strategist, I should have acted more carefully… Ugh!”
At that moment, Krazaru snatched up Marbas.
Then, with Tie under one arm and Marbas under the other, he began moving toward the opposite direction.
Gliding through the passage on mist, Krazaru said.
“Marbas. The way you can help Mother and me is by keeping your mouth shut and not saying anything!”
“What?! No, how can you say something so harsh…”
“Ppupppu is right! Tie’s ears hurt too!”
When Tie subtly chimed in, great shock appeared on Marbas’s face.
As he closed his mouth, Tie quickly looked up at Krazaru.
“Ppupppu. So where are we going?”
Krazaru answered while turning corner after corner through the complex maze-like passages.
“First, we’ll return to the place with the altar we saw earlier.”
“The altar? But there’s a monster there, isn’t there?”
“Yes. But I saw it just before we escaped. The creature was breaking through the earthen walls and collapsing the ground as it headed somewhere.”
Tie’s eyes grew wide.
Hearing Krazaru’s words, the situation from earlier came to mind.
‘Ppupppu is right.’
When Tie, Ppupppu, and Marul hurriedly escaped from where the altar had been.
Strangely, the gigantic monster didn’t chase after them.
Instead, it twisted its body and headbutted into an empty wall, creating a large tunnel as it began moving toward some strange place.
“It’s looking for something.”
“Indeed!”
Marbas, who had kept his mouth shut for a short while, lit up his eyes again.
“Lord Krazaru! That’s an excellent deduction!”
Tie looked at Marbas with bewildered eyes.
Marbas began speaking at such a rapid pace that it would be impossible to hear unless one concentrated.
“If that villain is looking for something, and if it was toward an empty dirt wall! Then it’s highly likely to be above ground, not underground!”
“….”
“Which means, in other words, for that villain to reach what it wants, it has no choice but to go above ground somehow!”
“….”
“So if we just follow behind that villain, we might be able to reach the surface on our own – how could I have missed such a profound meaning!”
Tie opened her mouth.
The child nodded to herself for a moment, then took out the communication device she had been carefully keeping in her embrace with one hand.
“Master? Why are you taking out the communication device again?”
“Mm-hmm.”
Tie answered and struggled to operate the communication device with her small hands.
“I told Mom and Dad earlier that there’s a monster here! So Dad decided to come here.”
Tie shook the communication device with a serious face toward Marbas, whose eyes had grown round.
“Then I need to contact them properly so we don’t miss each other. That’s phone etiquette!”
Marbas exclaimed “Indeed!” and his eyes lit up.
Soon, a small light appeared in the communication device.
Tie began earnestly explaining the current situation to the other side of the communication device.
A little later, just as the communication was about to end.
“Huh?”
Tie, who was putting the communication device back carefully into her embrace, paused.
For some reason, Krazaru had stopped in place.
When she looked up, she saw a familiar sight.
They had somehow reached the front of the altar.
In the distance, she could see a large cave that seemed to have been made by the monster, and in front of it was….
“Yellow Belt Baron?”
For some reason, Baron Norbert was still standing there, not having escaped yet.
When she held her breath, she could hear him muttering something.
“No… it’s still controllable. If I just retrieve the core, if I get permission for the fortress construction….”
Red blood dripped down his arm.
“This isn’t a failure. It’s just an adjustment phase. So surely….”
Tie’s eyes grew wide.
