Chapter 406 - 406 [BABY’S DAY-OFF] (VIII)

406 [BABY’S DAY-OFF] (VIII)

ALTHOUGH Livi said that he wanted to go to an amusement park, it would take about an hour to go to the nearest one from their location. Before they could even reach the place, the time they could spend together would be significantly reduced. Livi could probably only go to one attraction before it’s time for him to return home.

The good news was there was a small theme park near their area. They could arrive there by flying car in just 10 minutes. It was an added bonus that the theme park was very child friendly.

It was called Blitz Land. A theme park with a theme based on a popular fictional character ‘Blitz’. Blitz was the main character of a popular animated show of the same name. He was a cute white rabbit that wanted to be the fastest animal in the Empire.

Every episode was about his adventure or misadventure rather. It was not only entertaining, it was also full of moral lessons. That’s why it’s popular among parents and children alike.

Although there hadn’t been a new episode for the past two decades and the show had only been showing reruns, it hadn’t lost popularity. Just like the famous Hello Kitty from his past life, Blitz had also already reached a legendary height. And just like Hello Kitty and other famous mascots, Blitz also had theme parks dedicated to him.

When Astrid told Livi that they couldn’t go to an amusement park because the nearest one to them was still pretty far, the kid’s disappointment was almost overflowing. But when he said that they could go to Blitz Land instead, Livi’s expression brightened once again. In fact, it was even much brighter than when he said that he wanted to go to an amusement park. Showing that he also liked Blitz.

After deciding where to go next, the two quickly left the flower garden. Of course, with a group of bodyguards in tow.

Astrid noticed that the number of bodyguards actually increased. Probably because of Kara’s ‘accident’. The only good thing was that none of them tried to replace her job and followed them closely. Instead, they were following them at a reasonable distance.

A new bodyguard drove them to Blitz Land. Astrid was glad that the other wasn’t too fond of speaking and just drove them there in silence. But then, he started to wonder about the difference in attitude between Kara and the rest of the bodyguards.

…..

The latter was obviously less intrusive than the former. It’s like the latter was just there to do their job description while the former was acting like a hound monitoring Livi’s every move.

Now, he couldn’t help but be curious why that was. It would be insane though if the one who gave Kara that job was Livi’s mother though. Like seriously. ‘You’re son is only four, can you at least let him breath?’ – he truly wanted to say that to Livi’s mother.

If only he could meet the woman now, he would have really wanted to say that. But since there’s a low chance that the other would appear in this recording, the probably of him meeting the other would probably be pretty low.

But even if they did meet, what could he even say? It’s not like he could tell her she’s doing a pretty bad job as a mother. Even though he’s dying to do it. With that woman being such a control-freak, he wouldn’t be surprised if she actually called the police on him.

As Astrid was mulling over on how he could help Livi, they finally arrived at Blitz Land.

Even though it’s the weekday, there were still quite a number of people visiting the theme park. Showing just how popular Blitz Land was. Although this branch was a bit small compared to others, it’s still bigger compared to the smallest Disneyland from his past life.

He actually thought that there might be a possibility that the bodyguards assigned to Livi would clear out this place and they would arrive with an empty Blitz Land. Maybe it’s not because they didn’t, but they couldn’t. After all, they didn’t have enough time to do that. How could they even do it in 10 minutes or so?

Besides, Blitz Land would probably not agree of such demands. No matter how rich Livi’s family was, surely they couldn’t force Blitz Land to make their guests leave just because they were ordered to.

It would probably work if they reserved the whole place a couple of days or weeks before. But that wasn’t the case here. Blitz Land would surely not risk their family-friendly image by kicking out their guests just because some rich person ordered it.

As expected, the moment they stepped inside, they were immediately bombarded by Blitz’ image spread everywhere. From the food stands to the rides, and even to the holographic image of him just casualty floating around. Anywhere you looked, there’s Blitz.

Honestly, it’s a bit jarring for Astrid. If not for the overall bright atmosphere of the place, he would find this very creepy. He gazed down at Livi. Thankfully, the other didn’t share his opinion. As evidence of the kid’s expression right now.

Livi was looking everywhere with eyes gleaming with excitement. It’s like the expression of someone who entered some kind of magical place. He suddenly had a hunch.

“Is this the young master’s first time in a theme park?” he asked.

Livi’s face suddenly turned red from embarrassment. “O-of course not! How- how could that be possible?”

But his reaction was telling Astrid the complete opposite. Once again, he felt a bit incredulous. Even if Livi was only four, there were definitely many theme parks who could accommodate such a young child. Blitz Land for one.

Not bringing him to such place so he could have fun was not even a matter of not having money to do that. So, would this still fall under the guise of protection? Well, maybe. But still.

Astrid sighed in frustration. He kept the complaints to himself and offered his hand to Livi. “Let’s go and have lots of fun, okay, young master?”

Livi raised his head and accepted Astrid’s offered hand. Then, he smiled brightly. “Okay!”
