Trash of the Count's Family

Chapter 130: Not Scared (1)

Definitely worth a try.

Alberu seemed to be a bit excited.

You’re telling me something refreshing, albeit annoying, for the first time in a while.

Cale nodded his head.

“That is true. I don’t only pass the headaches to you.”

Alberu naturally scoffed. He had never seen anybody who had more incidents revolving around them than Cale Henituse. At Cale’s level, it was pretty much fate.

However, Alberu did not share his thoughts. Instead, he shared the information he needed to share with Cale.

The prisoner you sent over is being interrogated by my aunt right now.

“Is it going well?”

Of course, Cale knew that Tasha was probably torturing the prisoner and not actually interrogating him. However, Cale did not point that out.

I presume that he may give us some information in the near future. My aunt brought over an expert to help out.

Cale wondered who the expert the Dark Elves had brought in was. He had an idea but still nodded his head while feigning ignorance. Alberu was talking to himself in order to process his thoughts while Cale did that.

There’s a lot to do. I will contact the Queen of the Jungle and the Whipper Kingdom’s Chiefs. If we do that, we should be able to at least divide the Empire and the Northern Alliance geographically-

Alberu stopped mid-sentence to look at Cale.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Cale was looking at Alberu with a warm smile on his face. Cale had no problem responding to Alberu’s question.

“Because I am proud to call you my prince. I have so much respect for you, your highness.”

Cale was thinking that it was a good decision to speak with Alberu.

This smart person was also diligent, willing to do all of the annoying things for him. That was why he was proud of Alberu.

…Haaaaa.

Alberu just sighed in response before asking a question.

What do you plan to do next?

Cale did not even blink as he responded back to Alberu.

“I will gather information.”

However, he had other plans.

‘Gather information? I plan to go relax until Fall. What else can I do right now?’

However, Cale could see Alberu smiling oddly.

Yes, I’m sure you’ll bring me some useful information.

Alberu was thinking that Cale would end up getting involved in something, as usual, and be able to bring him information.

Cale alone was better than Alberu’s entire information network.

“…Yes, well.”

Cale felt iffy about Alberu’s smile, so he chose to just look away. He just told Alberu to deliver a message to Mary on his behalf before turning the communication device off.

Their farewell became friendlier every time they talked.

I always have nightmares after chatting with you. You bastard.

“May you live long and healthy, young master.”

You funny bastard.

Click.

Alberu then hung up on Cale. Cale felt like he could relax a bit, but he could not do so.

Shhhhhhhhhh-

It was the sound of something flying through the air.

Cale got scared after seeing the black blob flying toward him like a bullet.

‘Why is he acting like this?’

Raon stopped almost right in front of Cale’s face. Raon’s eyes were burning up with passion, making Cale start to worry.

“Human!”

Raon suddenly shouted.

“Let’s go find the power of earth!”

‘Ah, right. I still had to do that.’

Cale started to feel tired. He pushed the floating Raon away before letting out a sigh.

“What about your lessons?”

Raon needed to learn from Eruhaben. Raon’s wings flinched for a moment at Cale’s question, but Raon responded back confidently.

“…I can ask him to take me on a trip in order to get practical experience.”

‘Woah woah woah, he wants Eruhaben to come with us to find the Super Rock? Is he planning to destroy a continent or something?’
