A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 402
Cain’s eyes slowly examined Tie.
His gaze lingered once on her prettily combed hair, once on her large eyes, and once on the child’s two cheeks.
Cain answered quietly.
“…I’m much better. I’m not breaking out in cold sweats either.”
Tie’s face brightened.
“That’s a relief!”
Tie firmly grasped Cain’s hand and pushed a little more of her overflowing holy power into him.
Unlike yesterday, she could feel Cain’s body absorbing the holy power without resistance.
Though not visible to the eye, his damaged body was undoubtedly regenerating.
“You know, our Father told Lil Grandmother to come to the Imperial Palace once every month from now on.”
“Once every month…?”
“Mm-hmm. I asked Mar, no, my subordinate about it. The injuries might heal quickly, but damaged nerves need long, long treatment to recover.”
A look of surprise spread across Cain’s eyes.
‘Those words mean…’
If he continued receiving treatment, could his legs eventually be healed too?
Did it mean he could walk and run again like before?
“Aren’t you bored just lying down?”
Tie said, drooping her eyebrows.
The child lowered her gaze and carefully massaged Cain’s cold hand.
“You’ll get better soon. Tie will work hard at it.”
Cain closed his mouth.
Then he spoke in a barely audible small voice.
“Princess… you are truly a wonderful person.”
“Mm-hmm?”
“Though I’m still young… I’ve been hearing about it constantly since childhood, so I know.”
Cain looked at Tie.
“How much responsibility and authority a position grants to a person.”
Tie opened her mouth.
‘Cain…’
A slightly troubled look spread across Tie’s eyes.
‘He’s suddenly saying difficult things?’
Of course, Tie vaguely understood what Cain’s words meant.
Still, when heavy words came up, she instinctively gulped.
“To already possess such tolerance and decisiveness… you will surely become an excellent ruler in the future.”
“R-really?”
“Yes. Father said so too. And we of Nordbelt will never forget this kindness.”
Tie was about to answer something but showed an awkward smile instead.
Then she scratched her head and replied.
“Mm-hmm, thank you.”
Only then did Cain show a faint smile.
It was the first smile she’d seen throughout yesterday and today.
Feeling embarrassed, Tie got up from her seat.
“T-then Tie will be going! Stay healthy until we meet again!”
Cain nodded his head.
Then he turned his neck with difficulty toward the door, as if sorry he couldn’t see her off.
But just as Tie was about to open the door.
“Um, Princess.”
Cain’s voice came from behind again.
When she turned her head, Cain was looking at Tie with a hesitant expression for some reason.
“Mm-hmm?”
When Tie asked back, Cain opened and closed his lips several times.
Then he asked in a very small voice.
“Is Agabelt… going to be active again now?”
Tie’s eyes widened.
Then she laughed as if embarrassed and waved her hand.
“Ah~ it’s not like that, this time we came out for a northern inspection and got together after a long time… Hup!”
But naturally, she couldn’t continue to the end.
Tie, who covered her mouth with both hands, blinked her wide eyes.
“H-how!”
Tie was so surprised that she stared intently at Cain.
‘How did he know that Tie is from Agabelt?!’
Information about Agabelt members was very limited.
Simply put, it meant very few people in the world knew about them.
‘But for Cain to ask Tie about Agabelt…!’
It meant that those who participated in this incident were Agabelt members.
And it meant Cain knew that they and Tie were deeply connected.
As Tie remained frozen, Cain made a troubled expression.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to startle you.”
Cain again moved his neck with difficulty and gestured somewhere with his eyes.
“If it’s alright, could you please look over there?”
Only then did Tie turn her head to look where Cain was pointing.
There was a huge bookshelf that could fill one entire wall and more.
Usually nobles often had studies in separate rooms, so this was an unusual structure.
“Please look at what’s on the bookshelf.”
Tie hesitantly moved her steps.
As she walked nervously, she could indeed see various types of paper bundles, maps, and books inserted in the bookshelf.
“Please look at the third book on the fourth shelf. The one with the leather cover.”
Tie pulled out the book according to his words.
Then she looked at Cain once before carefully opening it.
Inside, neat handwriting was revealed along with newspaper clippings that seemed to be cut from here and there.
Next to them were also several small charcoal portraits attached.
【Mercenary Group Grim Ripper】
– Leader: Ripper
– Members: Paul, Ganello, Humst…
– Special Notes: Record highest ranking 2nd place.
– Chronicle: Since Ripper founded the group, he recruited Humst, who was a hometown friend, as a member…
Tie’s eyes grew large.
Information about the mercenary Ripper, who had become Mother’s adjutant long ago, was all written in tiny letters inside the book!
That wasn’t all.
“T-there’s Silvar’s Cry? Death Hound is here too! Pelochi Fang Unit, Balteron…”
Not only mercenary groups that had been in the high rankings while Tie was active.
“Cain, what is all this…?”
Even information about small mercenary groups that Tie didn’t know about.
The book had everything.
Cain made an embarrassed expression.
“I… actually like mercenaries.”
The child added in a crawling voice.
“Would you turn a few more pages?”
Tie stood there dazed, then hurriedly turned the pages.
Sure enough, before long, a word that caught her attention came into view.
【Agabelt】
Tie’s mouth fell wide open.
Information about Agabelt was ridiculously scarce compared to other mercenary groups.
Still,
“Commander King, identity unknown….”
Below those words, she could see some matching information.
“Those are Raul and Enzo’s names!”
Cain stepped forward.
“Yes. Basto Paerix. And the twin princes from the Waverill Family were among the relatively well-known members.”
While Tie closed her mouth, Cain continued speaking.
“Information about other members was nearly impossible to find. They were clearly former Agabelt members, but when investigations were conducted, they said they knew nothing about the Commander King.”
Tie gulped.
In fact, Tie knew the inside story of what Cain was talking about.
‘When the uncles left, Tie activated the sacred art of oblivion on everyone.’
During the time when they were trying to expand the mercenary group, Agabelt had over twenty members.
However, when later reorganizing the members, Tie activated the sacred art of oblivion on them.
Since it was something they had already agreed upon, there was no resistance, but they had no choice but to completely forget information about Tie.
They remembered that they had been part of Agabelt.
And that they had fought alongside other members.
“I thought it was strange. They clearly said they had seen the Commander King. They had conversations and even spent time quite close together. But when they tried to recall, they couldn’t remember anything.”
Tie unconsciously scratched her head.
The sacred art of oblivion was now quietly stored in the accessory storage box in Tie’s room.
“So we could only gather one piece of information about the Sorcerer King. That he traveled in the appearance of a child. Specifically….”
Cain’s gaze turned to Tie’s hair and eyes.
“Platinum hair and green eyes.”
“….”
“And that she was an extremely pretty and cute girl.”
Tie, who had choked, coughed repeatedly.
Even during this, Cain continued speaking.
“She traveled with Basto and an assassin of exceptionally beautiful appearance by her side, and furthermore.”
Cain’s gaze suddenly became serious.
“That person also handled dark attribute magic like the Princess. And with sacred power….”
“….”
“As you just did for me, there were theories that she manifested Pope-level healing power that far exceeded ordinary priests.”
