Trash of the Count's Family

Chapter 141: In the Middle of the Night (3)

Silence filled the area for a moment.

Harol was still quiet while someone was whispering in prince John’s ear as he observed Cale and the Whales.

Witira started to speak at that moment. She seemed more confident than ever while looking at the leaders of the four kingdoms. She did not even bow toward them.

“My name is Witira and I am here as the representative of the Whale tribe. We came at the invitation of our benefactor, young master Cale. Nice to meet you.”

She was respectful, but still showed her status. It was only obvious that she acted this way as the Whales were the greatest faction in the ocean, especially after defeating the mermaids. As the future Queen of the Whales, there was no reason for her to be subservient to these four leaders.

Furthermore, they were the tribe that was known to be the strongest after the Dragons. The people present could all see the whip wrapped around Witira’s forearm.

Cale watched all of this with satisfaction. He had asked Witira to do this.

‘Set the tone for the meeting.’

Witira properly set the tone as an influential member of a strong tribe. Paseton and Archie stood behind her with stoic expressions to help set the tone as well.

The warriors and the respective members of each Kingdom probably have a strong impression of the Whale tribe now. Their impression of the Roan Kingdom that was able to bring the Whale tribe to this meeting should have improved as well.

‘Not bad.’

Cale was satisfied with how things were going and slowly looked around. He then suddenly flinched.

Litana, who had been anxious until a moment ago, was looking at him.

‘Hmm?’

She was smiling at Cale as if she was looking at something very magical. Cale could not handle such a bright smile, so he turned his head away only to make eye contact with Harol, who was also smiling at him.

Harol was giving Cale a similar look that Litana had given him.

‘Why are all these people like this?’

Cale could not understand why they were looking at him like this. It was at that moment.

Clap!

A soft clap echoed through the area. Everyone’s gazes turned toward the source of the clap.

Crown prince Alberu Crossman received everyone’s gazes as he started to speak.

“Let us go in and have a longer chat.”

Prince John agreed with Alberu.

“I believe we need to do so. There is too much information being thrown at me at once. My mind is a bit chaotic right now.”

Contrary to what he was saying, John’s expression was calm. It was completely different than the anxious expression on the face of his youngest brother Pen, who was behind him.

Alberu nodded his head at John and looked toward Litana.

“Queen-nim, it looks like we need three more chairs.”

Litana nodded her head.

“Chairs for the three Whale tribe guests, right?”

Litana looked toward Bin and started to speak.

“Bin, bring a fourth chair for young master Cale while you are at it.”

“Queen-nim, young master Cale is accounted for in the three chairs.”

“Excuse me?”

Litana turned her head back toward Alberu as she asked. Alberu was saying that Cale was included already.

‘Will only two of the Whales sit down?’

That was what she was thinking. In fact, that was what everyone was thinking.

However, a noise that proved all of their thoughts wrong soon appeared.

“Huh?”

Someone spoke in a nervous voice.

Siiiiiiizzle.

The teleportation magic circle was starting to create sparks. Anybody trying to use this teleportation portal needed the magic incantation along with the passcode sent by the Jungle’s mage.

That was why the mage standing in front of the magic circle was starting to get anxious.

At that moment, someone put a hand on the mage’s shoulder and pulled him back.

The mage turned his head.

It was Cale Henituse, who was looking down at him.

“It is someone we invited.”

“…Excuse me?”

Siiiiiiiizzle.

The spark became even rowdier before a bright light morphed into a human silhouette.

The Whale tribe was not the only thing Cale had prepared. He started to smile while looking at the person slowly appearing in the magic circle.

He had not seen this person for a while. He reached his hand out as the new arrival grabbed his hand to exit out of the teleportation magic circle.

“Miss Cage, long time no see.”

“It sure has been long, young master-nim.”

It was the crazy priestess Cage. She followed Cale’s hand to step onto the sand. She was wearing a black priestess robe without any crest. The robe fluttered in the wind as she greeted everyone.

“It is an honor to meet all of you.”

She was still good at pretending to be a proper priestess.

Some people became nervous after seeing the arrival of an unknown priestess.

However, the Breck Kingdom’s side was calm. They had seen Cage before.

Cale introduced the crazy priestess to the group.

“She is a priestess serving the God of Death.”

Everybody thought about one thing after hearing Cale mentioned the God of Death.

The Vow of Death was the only reason for a priestess of the God of Death to show up to a meeting.

Alberu added on once Cale stopped speaking.

“The things we are about to discuss are extremely confidential information.”

Alberu smiled before continuing to speak.
