Trash of the Count's Family

Chapter 132: Not Scared (3)

Hilsman looked at Cale, who was suddenly introducing himself, with confusion. However, there was someone grabbing his shoulder and pushing him back.

“Stand still.”

“Excuse me? Hek, yes sir!”

It was Eruhaben.

Raon was next to Eruhaben and holding his head up with his short paws as he observed Cale.

‘Our human is in a weird state.’

All sorts of different powers of nature were surrounding Cale right now while the power of earth was coming out from between the cracks in the boulder.

Eruhaben also noticed this and moved back.

Ancient powers had to be earned on your own. Others could not intervene to help. They could stand guard in order to protect the person, but Eruhaben didn’t think a Dragon should stoop down to the level of guarding a human.

“Goldie! Let’s guard him!”

Of course, there were always some exceptions.

Eruhaben ignored Raon, who sighed before taking Hilsman to stand guard around Cale with him.

The boulder continued to crack as they did that.

Crrraaaaaack-

The boulder that was cracking on its own looked odd.

A shocked voice was speaking to Cale inside his head while that was going on outside.

…There’s a human who earned all four of their powers.

The voice was full of shock and disbelief, however, Cale just focused on the cracking boulder.

‘This was an entrance.’

He could see darkness through the cracks in the boulder.

The darkness was headed downward and leading to an underground area.

Although it could have been difficult to take a step into that pitch black darkness, Cale did not hesitate to walk inside.

Take the belonging of my friends.

You have earned the right to do that.

There was no reason to hesitate when the home-owner gave him permission.

Cale disappeared into the darkness.

Raon mumbled while watching Cale walk in.

“Goldie, should we follow him? Our weak human is extremely weak.”

“Aigoo, what did I do to deserve this?”

Eruhaben let out a sigh before pushing Raon down to the ground. Raon started to flail around.

“Stop it! How dare you do that to a great and mighty Dragon!”

“Little kid, I’m also a Dragon. Just be a good boy and wait here.”

Raon pouted and wrestled out of Eruhaben’s grip. He then calmly observed the cave that appeared once the boulder cracked.

Cale had disappeared into the darkness and was no longer visible.

However, Cale was not having any issues with going in the right direction while inside the darkness.

‘The earth is showing me the way.’

It was an interesting experience.

An unknown language showed Cale the way every time he took a step forward. This allowed him to have no fear as he continued to walk. [1]

Clack. Clack.

He continued to walk farther into the darkness.

‘I wonder what they left behind.’

These were things left behind since ancient times. Cale’s feet felt as light as a feather.

At that moment, he heard the voice of the Super Rock.

I lived a very difficult life. I became an orphan at a young age and had to survive on my own. The only thing I could control was the earth beneath me and the earth gave me strength as well.

Ah, I remember how my dream was to be able to eat three hearty meals a day and sleep without any worries.

Cale stopped walking.

However, I realized that I was given a power by Heaven and thought that I needed to use the power for good. That was why I always looked for ways to help people.

I wanted to be someone who could protect the weak people who reminded me of my past.

Cale crossed his arms and quietly listened to the voice.

And I do not regret the life that I chose.

Cale’s lips started to twist.

However, if there is something I do regret, it is the fact that I stuck too tightly to my beliefs. I chose to stay and protect the weak, even when I knew that my friends were in danger.

I protected the weak, however, all of my friends ended up dying.

That is why the only thing I could do was find their belongings once they were gone.

In the end, I ended up leaving this world before I could pass their belongings onto the people who had earned their powers.

But I am happy that I was able to protect this land.

Cale started to walk once again.

There was no reason to pay any more attention to what the voice was saying.

The owner of the voice was different.

He was very different compared to Cale.

Cale considered himself and his people to be more important than others. As for dying while protecting someone else? He didn’t have any inclinations toward something like that.
