Trash of the Count's Family

Teaser

Cale did not enter the capital and just stayed at the village closest to the capital.

“The Land of Death and Dark Elves.”

“What do you think?”

Cage looked toward Cale after hearing his question. Cale, who was fanning himself because of the heat, seemed very relaxed. Someone might think that he was here to enjoy tea time.

“What do you mean what do I think? Of course, I will go.”

She was just as relaxed.

‘I thought it might be something big since I didn’t remember my dream.’

But the information she got from Cale was not very big of a deal.

“I just need to bless the item that you get from the Dark Elves, young master Cale?”

“Yes, once a day until we reach the capital. I want you to give the God of Death’s blessing on that item every day.”

Dark Elves and the God of Death’s blessing. Cale’s mind was currently a complicated mess.

Dark Elves were weak against the Sun God and the God of Death was strong against the Sun God. Although the Sun God had a significantly larger number of believers, the strength of a god did not rely on the number of believers.

“Young master-nim.”

“Yes?”

“Is someone going to go kill the Bishop of the Church of the Sun God?”

“You don’t think I’m the one to do that?”

“Young master Cale, you have no reason to fight against the bishop. You are the type of person the Church of the Sun God would like. You are wealthy, have an ancient power, and most important, you are a good person.”

Cale did not respond to Cage’s statement. Other than the part about being a good person, Cale was definitely the type of person the Church of the Sun God would like.

They heard a knock on the door at that moment. Cale stood up after hearing the voice that followed.

“Let’s go! Hurry, let’s go!”

It was a husky and strong voice.

“Cage, I have someone to introduce to you.”

Cale went over and opened the door.

“Oh! You had a guest?”

There was a woman who was about Cale’s height and visibly sleek even though she was wearing a robe. She had met up with Cale two days ago.

“She is part of my group.”

“Oh, really?”

Cage observed the woman who went back and forth using formal and informal speech with Cale. The woman asked Cale a question.

“You told her everything?”

“Of course. I told her where we are going and what we are bringing back.”

The woman smiled at Cale’s answer. It meant that that was all that he had told Cage. Cale was also going back and forth between formal and informal speech with this woman.

The moment Cage wondered who this woman was, the woman walked over briskly and reached her hand out.

“Nice to meet you. My name is Tasha.”

She was a refreshingly beautiful woman. Cage shook her hand.

At that moment, Cale closed the door and Tasha’s face quickly moved to Cage’s ear.

“I am a Dark Elf, the guide for this trip.”

The two women made eye contact.

“I just changed my skin color right now.”

Tasha then looked at Cage like she was observing her reaction. At that moment, Cage smiled and introduced herself.

“Nice to meet you Tasha. My name is Cage, an excommunicated priestess of the God of Death.”

The term God of Death made the Dark Elf Tasha look toward Cale. Cale shook his head to show that he had not talked to Cage about the crown prince.

“How about a celebration since we have a new party member?”

“Do you have alcohol?”

“We have all sorts of drinks.”

Cale looked toward the two women who were casually chatting with each and started to speak.

“Tasha, let’s go.”

Tasha and Cale made eye contact.

Everybody in Cale’s group knew that Tasha was a Dark Elf. However, only Cale, Raon, On and Hong knew that she was the crown prince’s aunt.

“Will we be using the teleportation office in the capital?”

Tasha shook her head at Cage’s question.

“My disguise magic may get detected. It looks like we will need to use a carriage.”

“Ah.”

“I have an identification card.”

Tasha showed her ID to Cage.

“Everything is fake other than my name and age.”

Cage found the refreshingly honest Tasha to be odd but likable. She then looked at Tasha’s ID.

Tasha, 29 years old.

Tasha then started to chuckle.

“Ah, of course, you need to add a 0 at the end of my age.”

290 years old.

Cage looked toward Tasha and asked.

“Can I call you unni?”

“I knew I liked you. You are only the third human who hasn’t called me a granny after hearing my age. Please call me whatever you want, Cage.”

“Okay, unni.”
