Trash of the Count's Family

Cale’s group split up as soon as it turned bright. They would meet again in the plaza as the sun started to set.

‘I am curious about the magic of the north. I will go to the library.’

‘Cale-nim, I will go get a sword.’

Rosalyn went to the library, Choi Han went to a weapon store, and the two Whales disappeared into the festival to take care of their own things as well as fulfill Cale’s orders.

In the end, the three children averaging nine years of age were left with Cale.

“…Human, can I really keep eating?”

Raon could see a warm smile on Cale’s face.

“Of course.”

Cale responded gently before putting a Northern Special Beef Steak in front of Raon. He then wiped the sauce off the side of Raon’s mouth.

The Black Dragon had a suspicious gaze in his eyes but decided to eat the steak for now.

They were currently in a VIP room on the fifth floor of a restaurant by the plaza. Cale handed a piece of cake and a plate of Rosé pasta to Hong and On respectively.

Hong immediately took a bite of cake with excitement while On tilted her head in confusion.

“…This is weird. You are pretending to be nice.”

Cale flinched at On’s comment but quickly put on a bright smile.

“Pretending? No. You need to eat a lot to grow up strong.”

In the end, On started to slurp on a piece of pasta noodle as she observed Cale. However, Hong and Raon were too busy eating to notice anything.

The children were excited because they could eat all they want and observe the plaza without being invisible or pretending they couldn’t talk.

Raon shouted with excitement.

“Human, this is great! Let’s play until later and take care of the fireworks properly!”

Cale nodded his head and casually responded back.

“Sure. Let’s also add a fiery thunderbolt as an extra.”

Raon’s round eyes blinked a couple times.

“…Fiery thunderbolt?”

Clang.

The fork that was in Raon’s front paw dropped to the floor. Raon then started to frown.

“Human, you are going to use the fiery thunderbolt?”

“I won’t faint.”

“We can use magic!”

“We can’t use magic.”

“Why not?!”

“They will know it is magic.”

The sword master Clopeh and the mages needed to think that today’s incident was ‘something the Empire did,’ while feeling the power of nature as well.

Raon scrunched his face at Cale who seemed to have already made up his mind before pushing the plate of steak toward Cale.

“Human, eat it!”

“I’m full.”

“Why is your stomach so small? Is it because you are weak?”

‘…Isn’t it you that’s amazing for being able to eat ten steaks?’

Cale couldn’t tell what Raon would consider a small stomach but just proceeded with what he needed to say.

“I will only use a small one today. I won’t faint.”

“…Really?”

“Yes. I just need enough for it to flash.”

Raon continued to frown but did not say anything after hearing Cale’s confident voice. The kittens also seemed to accept it as they returned to eating their food.

‘Haaaaaa.’

Cale felt sorry for himself that he needed to get these children averaging nine years of age to approve his use of his own powers. He would not have care if it was the Whales or the Tigers. How did it end up this way? Cale even thought that it might have been easier when he was living as trash.

However, Cale still continued to wipe the sauce off of Raon’s mouth every so often. The three children were wary of him as they exchanged gazes with each other.

‘We will destroy everything if he faints!’

Hong nodded at Raon’s gaze while On shook her head and sent a different message.

‘How about we just protect him instead of thinking about destroying things? We will use our poison fog if any strong people come nearby. Everybody, whether they are Lions or sword masters, all fall in the end if they are poisoned.’

‘Oh! Good idea!’

Cale did not know about the children’s vicious exchange as he slowly ate a cookie. The children continued to peek at him from time to time but Cale had no idea.

Cale looked out the window and started to think.

'The fiery thunderbolt.’

He had fainted after using it to the maximum power last time.

‘Then I’ll use just half.’

Since it would be used during night time, even using it at half power will make it flash brightly.

‘I shouldn’t faint if I use it at half power, right?’

Cale felt his heart starting to beat faster. He then started to frown.

‘Is it completely crazy now?’

He shook his head at the voice that was going off like an alarm in his head. It had been going on since early in the morning.
