A Powerful Child Searches for Dad Episode 86

Popurosa Weapon District.

“Exit 5 is opening!”

As the midday sun began to tilt, the Primordial Furnace became bustling.

“Hey rookie! What are you doing pouring out molten metal already! Clear the accumulated slag first-!”

“Who used up all the carmine alloy I filled! Come out!”

The forgemasters’ voices were loud and rough.

However, contrary to their harsh voices, everyone’s faces carried subtle smiles.

“This batch of ore is good quality. The gold veins are practically breathing.”

“More importantly, did you hear what the Factory Manager said this morning?”

“Of course I heard! No more endless fighting with mercenaries…”

The reason the forgemasters were excited was simple.

This morning, Berukon appeared at roll call with a bright face for once and said this.

‘From now on, there will be no more orders to chase customers out of the weapon district.’

The forgemasters doubted their ears.

Until now, no matter how much they begged, he wouldn’t even pretend to listen.

They were puzzled about what had changed Berukon’s mind.

However, after hearing Berukon’s next words, everyone couldn’t help but gasp.

‘Ahem! Well, I couldn’t help it before. It was because of Krazaru’s core.’

Berukon confessed that he hadn’t been in his right mind all this time because of Krazaru’s core.

And he didn’t forget to mention that it was the Commander King who saved him from that state.

Of course, even such a roll call ended the same way as always with Berukon’s shouting.

‘What are you all doing! The smeltery will rust! Resume work! Get moving!’

But even so,

“Was the sky always this high and beautiful?”

“Exactly. Even that rookie’s mistakes look cute today.”

The forgemasters who had shaken off their long worries felt lighter than ever.

“Valcard! Your hammer is really flying today!”

“Hahaha! Garok, you’re something else.”

It was when a harmonious atmosphere was spreading through the smelting district.

“Agabert is departing! Anyone who wants to see them off, come out!”

Olek, who opened the iron door of the smelting district, shouted loudly.

All the forgemasters inside hurriedly put down their hammers and weapons.

“These are the people who brought our Factory Manager back to his senses, so we should see them off.”

“Of course, that’s what decent people do!”

Olek stood holding the door and watched the forgemasters rushing out.

Then he too joined the very end of the farewell procession.

“Wow- It’s the forge uncles!”

The square where Agabert’s carriage was waiting.

Tie’s expression brightened when she saw the forgemasters gathering.

“It’s not forge uncles, it’s forgemasters. Or call them weapon smiths properly.”

Veil gently corrected her, but it didn’t reach the excited Tie’s ears.

“Uncle Olek the forge master!”

Olek smiled awkwardly as he looked at the Commander King who ran up to him.

He suddenly remembered struggling with the sword bag in front of this Commander King.

Recalling how the armament broke due to the unnecessary scuffle, resulting in the Commander King being trapped in subspace, guilt washed over him once again.

However, the Commander King had a bright face as if she had forgotten all about that.

“Uncle forge master, why did you come?”

Olek looked around at his colleagues and cleared his throat.

“Well, naturally we came to see off Danzu.”

“See off?”

“Well. Thanks to Danzu, the Factory Manager is safe, and the weapon district can continue without worrying about closure…”

A bright smile spread across Tie’s lips.

The child soon twisted her body and laughed, saying ‘It’s nothing.’

At that reaction, Olek, who had been making an awkward expression, spoke again.

“Do you have any other plans after going to Jedo?”

Then, as if she had been waiting for just that question, Tie’s face became fully flushed.

“Yes! Tie is going to buy a house in Jedo!”

“A house?”

“Yes! Like this, a big house from here to way over there! Three floors! It even has a basement!”

When the forgemasters looked puzzled, Basto approached.

“We’re looking into a Jedo base.”

“A Jedo base?”

“That’s right. Even if we wander when we wander, we need a place to settle.”

Olek quietly furrowed his brow.

‘A Jedo base…’

Hearing Basto’s words, he suddenly remembered other mercenary groups saying similar things.

He was sure they also talked about purchasing a mansion in Jedo to use as a base.

‘Which mercenary group was that?’

But no matter how much he thought about it, nothing came to mind.

Eventually, Olek shook his head as if it was nothing.

When he turned his gaze, the Commander King was talking to another forgemaster about the Jedo base again.

“We collected this much mastone in our carriage, and when we take it to the Compensation Office, we’ll get tons of money, and we’ll buy a house with that, no loan needed!”

“I… I see. Congratulations.”

“Yes. When Tie buys a house, I’ll invite all the forge uncles here! Housewarming!”

“Housewarming?”

“Yes! When having a housewarming, you bring toilet paper and detergent as gifts, right?”

“Detergent…?”

“Don’t you know the stuff used for soap bubble play?”

“Soap bubbles…??”

“Come on, come on! Danzu! Let’s get going!”

Veil, who couldn’t watch anymore, approached and lifted Tie up.

Tie drooped her eyebrows in disappointment but soon smiled brightly.

“Goodbye, forge master uncles!”

“Pick either forge master or master forge, just one.”

Veil shook his head, but Tie just giggled.

Tie, who got on the carriage, sat in her seat where Basto had laid out a soft cushion.

Looking out the window, she could see the forgemasters gathered in the square waving their hands.

And,

“Oh! It’s the Factory Manager!”

She could also see Berukon on the roof of the armory, looking down at the square.

“Factory Manager! Take care!”

But Berukon just cleared his throat awkwardly and turned his body away.

“Then we’ll be departing!”

Soon Enzo, who had taken hold of the reins, started the carriage.

Tie gazed at the scenery outside the window that was gradually growing distant with a pounding heart.

‘The Weapon District was really fun.’

It was scary when she was trapped in subspace, but looking back, it seemed there were more fun experiences.

Tie picked up the preschool bag at her feet and hugged it tightly to her chest.

Unlike when she first arrived here, Tie’s bag was now completely stuffed full.

“Hehe.”

Tie opened the zipper and touched the three bear doll orbs inside.

Then she opened the front storage compartment and let Ppupppu come out.

“Kyu-!”

Ppupppu made a “paha-” sound as if he had been stuffy, then went into Tie’s pocket.

But Tie, who had been smiling warmly at that sight, soon opened her eyes wide.

“Huh?”

Basto stared at Tie.

“Tie, are you okay?”

But Tie didn’t even look at Basto and just moved her hand quickly inside the bag.

“Child, what’s wrong?”

When even Veil stepped forward, only then did Tie raise her head.

Great shock was written across the child’s face.

“It’s gone.”

“Gone? What is?”

“Kamang is gone…”

At those words, Enzo stopped the carriage.

Nordics spoke soothingly.

“That can’t be, look carefully.”

However, Kamang’s black stone was nowhere to be found in the bag.

Worry instantly filled the child’s eyes.

Tie hurriedly got up from her seat and grabbed the carriage door.

“Maybe I left the stone at the dormitory! Let’s go back quickly, okay?”

But at that moment.

“…I’m here.”

A crawling voice was heard from the luggage compartment behind the seats.

At those words, everyone turned around.

Among the pile of luggage stacked up neatly.

Something was glinting from under a blanket that had been unfolded to prepare for the cold.

“…Haah.”

What was sticking just its head out from under the blanket was Lucalion in human form.

“Astie.”

Lucalion’s face was filled with bewilderment and embarrassment.

“I…”

“…”

“I can’t return to the stone.”
