Tilea’s Worries

Episode 71: "Eddie Father Appears. We're working together on a parent-child settlement."

"Well, I'd like to ask..."

"Yes, what is it? - Tough!

When I opened the store door, there was an old man about forty-five years old with a disappointing physique. The back length exceeds two meters and is an extremely bad surface with a mustache stored. He had a big sword on his back that didn't suck with his physique.

A robbery?

Ku, if you're coming, come. I'm Karate Three Steps - Whoa, I'm scared with my eyes!

Sharp eyes that are going to eat and kill your prey. It seems that the bears can be defeated with bare hands, and most importantly, the product that is putting them on their backs creates silent pressure.

Wow, I'm not going to win with my arm. But don't look sweet.

Les, you're going to call Mr. Remilia. I have connections even if I don't have the strength. He's a good friend of the head of the security forces, Mabdachi. One of these days, he could be promoted to Rubbers.

"Tim, does your home fit here?

"Yes, I do... What can I do for you?

What, what, you're too suspicious. How does this guy know Tim's name?

If you're thinking about feeling sorry for Tim, I'll tell Edim and give him back.

"Ha, don't be so vigilant. I'm not suspicious."

……

"This is tough. I swear on the honor of Aljas Marano, third captain of the Expeditionary Corps of the Kingdom of Alkudas, a soldier. I will never harm you."

"Are you a military man? Hmm!? Alhass? No way......"

"Oh, I'm Edim's father, as you think I am"

Oh, this guy is Edim's father!? You don't look too alike!

I thought you were the Mafia boss. This guy has too many pieces. It doesn't look like Edim, the beautiful girl. Edim is like a mother, isn't he?

Even so, Edim's father was a soldier in the army. Surely an outpost force is a force that revolves around the authority of an umbrella country, isn't it? If you were the captain there, you'd be pretty upstairs. If you're in position, the colonel or lieutenant colonel should be there.

Anyway, don't be rude. I have to say hello.

"Oh, I'm late for my offer. My name is Tyrea, and I'm the manager of this restaurant, Belm. Tim's sister and Edim are friends."

"Oh really?! Edim's always looking out for you."

"No, this is Edim. He's always helping me."

"I'd be glad if our stupid girl was helping us."

"There's no such thing as a stupid girl. Edim is an excellent and fine daughter."

"Hehe, as a parent, I'm glad you said that."

Oh, my God. I've been flattered by my daughter. I have a love that spills on my tough face. Isn't this Uncle Texas a pretty cute cousin?

"By the way, Edim's father, do you mean Edim?

"Ah. It's been a long time since I've been back in King's Capital, but I haven't been able to get in touch with Edim. It's up to Tim at school to check up on you and visit us when he hears you're always with him."

I see Edim has been more immersed in the underground empire of the Evil Army than in the dormitories of the school lately. I'd rather wait here to get in touch with Edim.

"I understand the circumstances. What are you talking about? Come inside."

"I'm sorry."

"No."

I know who I am, and I'm relieved. It wasn't a robbery, it was the father of a friend. I'm off guard, Eddie. I'll get my father inside and lead him to his seat.

When Father Eddie takes his seat in a military-like crisp move, he takes the cigar out of his pocket. It was a big cigar like the movie villain boss used to smoke.

"I'm sorry, do you mind if I smoke?

"Yep. Oh, then I'm sorry, but could you please move to this seat? It's a non-smoking seat."

"Look, a non-smoking seat is... that's an interesting system. Mm-hmm. Some customers won't like cigarettes. Excellent consideration."

That's what I say, Eddie. Father moving his seat.

For once, there is an ashtray in the smoking seat. Eddie, my father cleverly cuts the area of the cigar and ignites the cigar when he gives out flame magic at his fingertips.

Cigar smoke drifts.

The ashes seem to be putting me in the ashtray properly.

Eddie, it's my father. I was impressed with the smoke-free seating system, but you are better. You're a gentleman. None of them equals non-smoking manners or anything else in this era. While most customers naturally smoked, they took care to make sure they smoked properly, and most importantly, they were careful not to use ashtrays to tarnish the store table.

He's a good guy, though he's going to be misunderstood with a tough face.

"I think Edim will be here soon"

"Well, I'll keep you waiting."

"Yeah, here you go. Tea."

I make tea and give it to my father, Eddie. Eddie, my father enjoys the scent of cigars from time to time as he sips tea looking delicious.

"Tyrea, what's Edim like?

"I'm always fine. You'll get along with my sister, and you're a good girl."

"Well, that's good"

Hmm!? Eddie, my father's guy, his face is dark instead of saying it was good. The lines and expressions don't match.

"Um, is there something you're worried about?

"Hmm..."

Shut your mouth, Eddie. Father...

I wonder if this is a private matter. Then it would be rude to ask, wouldn't it?

"Oh, if you don't want to say anything -"

"No, Edim's friend Tyrea, you'd be fine. Actually, before I got here, I went to the school dorm, and my daughter, she said, barely went back to the dorm. Plus, you think I skip school every once in a while? He also wrote to me regularly, but recently he also returned a reply. So I was so worried that my daughter would have made a bad friend that I quickly took the day off and returned home."

"Well, that's..."

"Of course, Tyrea, as far as you're concerned, I don't seem to have made any bad friends. But what the hell is he doing back at school?

And, shit...

That's right. Edim became a vampire and wasn't at school. Of course, you can't even send a letter. Eddie, you don't seem to know that Edim has become a vampire because of how my father is doing.

Well, it's not that easy to confess to your family that you've become a vampire.

Should I tell the truth...

No, this kind of important story isn't for others to talk about. From his own mouth - but it's hard for him to say it, too. Maybe you should tell me the truth from me...

Which way should I be? Yeah. When I'm roaring,

"... something still happened to Edim, huh?

That's what my father asked me, Eddie.

"Duh, why?

"It's obvious you're wandering around with so much in mind."

That's right, military man, I have an observation eye.

Do we have to be honest when this happens...

No, but...

"Please. If you know anything, I want you to tell me."

That's what I say and I bow my head, Eddie. Father,

I sincerely bow my head from that look conveys the feeling of a parent who thinks of their daughter. I wouldn't even be sneaky to keep my mouth shut if I got this far.

I can't help it. Let's get hungry, too.

"Okay. Edim's father, calm down and listen. Actually..."

I explained the upside of it. During the raid on the King's capital of the Demonic Nation, he told them that Edim had become a vampire, that when he fled, he had made the guards family members, that he had not skipped the school, and that there were unavoidable circumstances.

Eddie, my father looked at me and listened quietly to my words. Exactly a knockout soldier, it's an outrageous event but it hasn't moved. Occasionally, I would have frowned because of the kindness I think of my daughter.

"Aye, okay"

"Did you understand the situation?

"Ah. Obviously hard to believe, but I can see the situation in King's Capital last year, and most importantly, your character as not a liar. I guess what happened to my daughter is true."

"Yes, unfortunately..."

"Right..."

Eddie, I can understand my father's sadness. It is up to Edim not to be trusted by the country no matter how many human minds he claims to have. I'm pretty sure he'd be executed if he were a vampire. My beloved daughter is going to become a vampire and be chased from the state. Its heart will be wrapped in immeasurable sorrow.

"It's okay. I'll definitely protect Edim and show him. The vampire investigation is on fire now, so I thought I'd be relieved first. I just can't be alarmed. Be very careful with Edim's father."

"I'm glad your friendship for your daughter...... but Edim slashes!

What!? What now?

I heard something uneasy...

"Oh, you listened to me properly?

"Of course, but whoever's in charge of the country has been sacrificed because of his daughter"

"Become!? Nobody's talking like that. Nothing. Edim didn't kill anyone. I just didn't let you be a family member and keep you safe!

This guy, what are you talking about? Edim is the victim. Are you seriously gonna put your own daughter in your hands?

"If a soldier loses his loyalty to the country, it's as good as dead. My daughter flipped an anti-flag against the country because of our friendship. It's not something you can forgive."

"Ho, are you serious? Edim is your daughter."

"That's why. That's why you have to settle with my hands!

Eddie, I inadvertently lag behind my father's blood-soaking screams.

Eddie Father pulls out the Great Sword with a sad look on his face and shows his readiness to slash Edim.

"Wow, chill out for a second!

"I am calm. If you stand in my way, I'll kill you too!

"Hino! So, but, wait, listen."

To my desperate words, Eddie. My father stares at me silently. In the meantime, they don't seem to be slashed without question.

"Edim's father, listen to me. I think Edim was full of anxiety and anxiety when he became a vampire. I'm a lot calmer now, but until a little while ago, there were times when I couldn't get to school at all. Me and Tim support it, but I think I rely most on you, my father, on the inside. Please reconsider."

"... before I was my father, I was a soldier serving my country."

What a stonehead...

Something reminds me of Jeje. Is this all military people are?

Yeah, what do we do? If you don't convince him soon, Edim will be back.

And only time passes without a valid idea to convince Eddie Father...

"Sister, I'm home now"

Tim and the others came home at the worst possible time.
