Chapter 12
‘When I meet Mommy and Daddy, I’m going to tell on you. Really, really tell on you.’
That’s what Daddy said.
He said if Tuntuni has a hard time, Tuntuni should tell Mommy and Daddy everything.
So once I find Mommy and Daddy fast, I’m going to tell them everything, how hard it was for Tuntuni.
But if I only say that, Mommy and Daddy will be upset, so Tuntuni has to say this too.
Tuntuni got strength from the Wish God, so Tuntuni is super, super strong, and that’s how I got through it all.
So…
After that, I want a big hug.
And then, and then…
Then, after that…
“Hic.”
I’ve only lived through one year of the world.
Tuntuni, a small, weak baby, let a tear drip down to the floor with a plop.
It hurt. So, so much.
Tuntuni came all the way to catch a monster to find Mommy and Daddy, a super, super strong kid, even.
The fake family almost got me killed, and that hurt so much my nose stung.
‘When I meet Mommy, Daddy, and Big Brother, I’m definitely going to tell on you. Really.’
The tears kept coming, more and more.
Kyle opened his mouth, unable to keep still.
“Don’t worry! Those bad guys. I, I’ll get revenge on them too! I’ll help you! So don’t cry!”
“……?”
“What do you want? Huh? Just say it. Those bad guys who bullied you, I’ll handle them all!”
Kyle slammed his fist against the wall. Bang! He only struck it with his fist, but the wall flared up in flames and a huge hole opened in the middle.
Huh. The tears stopped at once.
Right. I got a really strong friend, didn’t I?

Some tens of minutes later.
Kyle, who was clinging close to Arienna’s side, spoke earnestly.
“Uh, um. So you’re saying you have a family other than Rheinfeld?”
“Mm-hmm.”
“So meeting your real family again is your wish, then?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Kyle narrowed his eyes as if to double-check and said,
“So after we wipe out all the monsters, you’re going to make a wish to meet your family.”
“Yes, that’s right. So I need the prince’s help! You’re super, super strong!”
Under those sparkling, round eyes, Kyle cleared his throat a couple of times.
‘They think so highly of me.’
A kid even more amazing than me.
His shoulders puffed up.
Arienna was the one who saved me, but I escaped the rampage myself, so I guess I’m a little amazing too.
“Then what kind of help? You want me to help get rid of the monsters together?”
“Yes! Together!”
“Fine. I was going to leave this Monster Island anyway once the rampage calmed down.”
We’d wipe out the monsters together and leave this place.
Still, there was one thing bothering him.
The Emperor who had sent him here.
He had sent his own flesh-and-blood child to this island without even a servant to accompany him, and all he did was supply food once a month through a golem.
‘Father never cared much about someone like me to begin with.’
Even if His Majesty the Emperor didn’t want me to leave Monster Island.
‘Well, once I become the hero who conquered Monster Island, I can return to the Imperial Palace with my head held high.’
In every way, it would be better for the monsters here to disappear completely.
“Alright, then let’s go together.”
As someone who had been on Monster Island for a long time, Kyle explained the island to Arienna.
Monster Island was made up of three islands connected together: North Island, Middle Island, and South Island.
Monster Mansion stood at the northernmost part of North Island, too.
“The altar where you take the Hero’s Oath is right on North Island. I don’t know much about Middle Island or South Island. All I know is that the strongest monster is on South Island.”
“Then let’s go scold the strongest monster right now!”
“No, before that, we have to go to Wish Village, where the beginner heroes who want to conquer Monster Island stay.”
“……?”
“I know you’re incredibly strong. But making a wish isn’t as simple as that.”
“But it said all we have to do is get rid of the gaemul, right?”
That’s what the sparkly letters said.
Seeing Arienna’s sulky face, Kyle shrugged.
She’d been practically locked away in the mansion, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t hear anything at all.
Besides, from reading so many books in this mansion, she knew more about Monster Island and wishes than anyone.
“You have to make the Hero’s Oath properly in front of the Wish Tree in Wish Village. Only after that can you hear the detailed conditions for making a wish.”
“Huh? Wow! The Hero’s Oath!”
Arienna’s eyes sparkled.
“As far as anyone knows, only one person can make a wish: the Last Hero, out of everyone who’s taken the Hero’s Oath. So on Monster Island, only one person can have their wish granted.”
Arienna nodded. Then she took Kyle’s hand tight.
“Now for real, let’s go!”
At last, they were going to see Tuntuni’s mom and dad again.
Kyle quickened his pace and spoke.
“For now, let’s move while keeping ourselves as hidden as possible. More monsters might show up.”
“Huh? But even if there are monsters, I’ll get rid of all of them!”
Of course, I mean Kyle, not me.
Taken aback by Arienna’s confident attitude, Kyle scratched his head with an awkward expression.
“Ah, right. You’re strong.”
Huh?
Before she could correct the misunderstanding, Kyle stroked his chin with a look of genuine admiration and scanned the surroundings.
“Alright, got it. Then I’d better pack some supplies. I’ll make sure to bring plenty of water, food, and magic tools.”
And so the great journey of the two little ones finally began.
And then…
That very day, the two little ones went and did something enormous(?) on their very first day.
SIDE 1. On a sunny, warm day, Dad’s observation parenting diary of Tuntuni (Mom doesn’t know)
Our little coward Tuntuni is afraid of so many things.
Yet strangely, she’s quite happy to touch baby animals.
I made a noise near the chicks we keep in the backyard, and would you believe it? Our Tuntuni, who bites at even a gust of wind, stroked a chick with her tiny hand.
I wish that, in my child’s eyes, even the most frightening things could look like the cutest, most harmless little baby animals.
Don’t worry, Tuntuni.
Dad will make the world you see not scary at all.
Our baby, you trust Daddy, right?
Even if our Tuntuni gets hurt or something frightening happens, it’s okay.
Because Dad will protect our Tuntuni.
Even if I have to stake my entire life on it.
I’ll make our family, our Tuntuni, smile for the rest of her life.

A few days later, Grand Duke Veipran arrived on Monster Island.
With silver hair and crimson eyes exposed, as if he had no intention whatsoever of hiding his face.
He habitually fingered the pink shoes with ribbons tucked in his pocket, then looked at the signpost.
<Wish Village>.
This place was not what he had expected.
He had heard that people came to Monster Island to make wishes, but he’d assumed that, given the ominous rumors surrounding the place, not many would gather in the village.
Yet from the village entrance, crowds of people were bustling about.
Their laughter and chatter looked lively.
“What’s going on?”
At his low murmur, a man with a mole beside his nose spoke with an eager expression.
“You must be new here, huh?”
“I asked what’s happening.”
Though his tone was perfectly ordinary, an oppressive weight lingered in it.
The man quickly changed his demeanor and added in a polite tone.
“Ahem, well, a few days ago, a hero came to this village, you see…”
