A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 83
“But did you really make this intending to give it to our leader?”
Meanwhile, at Basto’s question, Berukon awkwardly turned his gaze away.
“Well, it’s not so much that, but your leader did save my life inside the subspace, and freed me from being enchanted by Krazaru…”
Though he didn’t want to admit it, Tie’s comfort as she patted Berukon’s hand in the subspace had been quite useful.
He fidgeted with the bag he had brought.
“Actually, this isn’t all there is. I couldn’t sleep well last night, so I made various other things too…”
At that moment, Tie’s eyes widened as she spotted something inside the opened bag.
The child rushed over and shouted.
“Factory Manager, you stole batteries from the subspace!”
Flustered, Berukon quickly hid the bag behind his back.
“St-stole! I was just securing research materials needed for developing new equipment…!”
However, Tie was already sticking her nose into the bag.
“One, two, three, four! You stole four batteries! Hair clips and teddy bears too!”
“N-no, that’s not it!”
Tie narrowed her eyes and stared intently at Berukon.
“Stealing children’s toys from the preschool…”
This was truly a terrible crime of the worst kind.
Meanwhile, feeling wronged, Berukon looked around at the unit members.
“I just wanted to make something for you!”
Then, as if to show them, he opened the bag and pulled something out.
It was a small teddy bear.
“Weren’t you staring at this the whole time when we came out of the subspace?! So I just thought it would be good to make this into an orb.”
The unit members’ eyes widened.
Tie herself just tilted her head with a puzzled expression.
“What’s an orb?”
“You call yourself a mage and don’t even know what an orb is? It’s a magical tool that mages use to store their mana or spells!”
As Tie’s mouth fell open, Enzo whispered from beside her.
“Usually they use round, sphere-shaped ones.”
Hearing that, Tie vaguely remembered something.
She recalled the Scream of Silvar mages she had encountered last night.
Each of them carried round orbs strung together at their waist or shoulder.
Basto had only told her they were ‘tools that mages use.’
‘Why doesn’t Tie have any…’
She had been secretly disappointed about why she didn’t have those tools.
“I embedded specially combined magic stones inside this doll. Since you go around looking like a child, I thought this would visually suit you better than a regular orb…”
Berukon cleared his throat.
“Mages don’t usually carry just one orb around. So just in case, I made two more.”
As two more teddy bears emerged from the bag, Tie’s eyes grew even wider.
Berukon had properly selected from among the many toys scattered around the preschool.
Though slightly worn from children’s hands, the teddy bears were none other than the Teddy Bear series.
They were from an expensive brand supposedly hand-stitched by German craftsmen.
‘And there’s a complete set of three!’
A polar bear version, a brown bear version, and finally a pink panda version.
“But this is rather annoying.”
However, Berukon soon snatched the bag away from Tie’s sight.
“Seeing you talk about ‘stealing’ just because I brought some dolls out of a monster’s subspace.”
Tie was so flustered that she stared at Berukon with wide eyes.
“I was foolish to think you’d be happy. I’ll just burn them at the incinerator.”
But Berukon was already defiantly shouldering the bag.
True to his reputation as a bad-tempered blacksmith, his expression had turned quite fierce.
“W-wait!”
Finally, Tie blocked Berukon’s path as he tried to turn away.
“Take back! I take back saying you stole them!”
Berukon tilted his head sideways.
Tie hurriedly continued speaking.
“Tie heard that these days the world has changed, so adults play with toys a lot too!”
“…”
“If you look on YouTube, there are lots of uncles who assemble Legos this big!”
From decoration crafting to bead art and slime.
Adults were actually playing with toys more seriously than children these days.
“Also, adults are better at collecting Pokémon stickers! Because they have strong purchasing power. Tie only collected seven…”
So when you think about it, wasn’t it not really a big problem?
Berukon bringing teddy bears out of the subspace, that is.
“Mm-hmm, so adults can play with toys too, right.”
Tie’s eyes sparkled with an innocent expression.
Then she sneakily ran over and took the bag from Berukon’s arm.
“Also, when adults give you something, you say thank you and accept it.”
She quickly stuffed the teddy bears and hair clips into her cloak pocket, making it bulge like a hamster’s cheek stuffed full of sunflower seeds.
However, Tie didn’t mind and bowed deeply at the waist.
“Thank you, Tie will put them to good use.”
Only after Tie had also taken the donut-shaped device Berukon was holding did she breathe a sigh of relief.
‘Tie’s dolls almost went to the garbage dump…!’
She hadn’t realized it at first, but thinking about it, if Berukon made something for Tie, she should definitely keep it.
‘Factory Manager is a super famous blacksmith!’
She had seen him in all sorts of states in the subspace, but Berukon was truly an amazing weaponsmith.
There were countless people who wanted to buy weapons he made.
‘During the meeting, that Elastin person also wanted to buy weapons from Factory Manager.’
It was Elanes, not Elastin, but there was no way Tie would remember the name correctly.
Anyway, Tie had gotten weapons that others coveted for free.
And not just one, but one, two, three, four of them!
“Tie finally has orbs too…”
While she was moved to stroke the teddy bear sticking out of her pocket.
Veil asked Berukon.
“What’s this pin? Did you bring this from the subspace too?”
Berukon nodded.
“That’s right. It’s not anything special, but it’s defensive equipment of sorts. I just replaced the metal part with special magical metal.”
Hearing this, Tie quickly pulled the pin from her pocket and stuck it on top of her head.
Somehow it felt like power was surging through her body.
Berukon made a tsk sound while staring at Tie.
“…Anyway, make sure to try that ring amulet on your permanent summon. If it seems broken, bring it back anytime.”
Tie grinned and nodded.
“Yesss!”
“Well, then about the payment.”
Then Basto cautiously stepped forward.
Berukon waved his head as if it wasn’t necessary.
“It’s fine. Thanks to the Commander King, the Krazaru core that was an eyesore is gone, and the Weapon District that almost failed due to my not being in my right mind seems to have recovered…”
He looked at Astie, who was hugging the doll tightly and giggling.
“Making one more promising business partner would be good for me too, wouldn’t it?”
It was when the unit members were awkwardly exchanging glances.
Tie, who had been half-listening to everyone’s words, raised one hand.
“Can Tie go to Tie’s room first?”
Veil’s eyes widened.
“Why to your room?”
“To show off proudly.”
“To who?”
“To Kamang and Ppu… no, to Kamang!”
“Alright, go ahead first.”
Tie nodded her head and ran toward her room.
The unit members watched her retreating figure with smiles.
It was just as a brief silence was flowing among those left behind.
“More importantly, you all, don’t you have something to say to me?”
At Berukon’s voice, the Agavert unit members turned their heads.
Looking at the unit members, Berukon added matter-of-factly.
“The Commander King wasn’t a disguise, was it?”
