Trash of the Count's Family

The corners of Cale's lips were twitching.

Human, you are smiling like that again!

“He has that weird smile!”

“He always smiles that way when he is excited.”

Raon, Hong, and On all spoke one after another, however, Cale did not listen to them at all.

Swipe. Swipe. Swipe.

Beacrox was wiping the dust off of his white gloves.

Although there was not much dust to start with, he could see the five people kneeling in front of him turning pale each time they heard the noise.

However, none of the five had any injuries or blood stains on them.

“Hohoho.”

Ron had just laughed before moving quickly to choke each of them once.

“…I’m itching to fight.”

A few of the trees nearby ended up being destroyed by the sword master Hannah who didn't get to do anything. Beacrox was busy wiping the dust that was caused by Hannah’s attacks off of his gloves and clothes.

Of course, the five pale people were shaking in fear after seeing Hannah’s golden aura and black smoke combination.

Beacrox asked Cale a question after making sure that his outfit was spotless.

“What should we do? Should we torture them?”

Gasp.

The people kneeling gasped.

However, Cale had no intentions of listening to this vicious chef. He felt bad for the five extremely scared bandits.

He too would be scared of going up against the combination of Hannah, Ron, and Beacrox.

Cale leaned on a boulder as he gently smiled and addressed the five people.

“Don't be scared, okay?”

The five of them turned away from Cale and focused on the ground.

"Why are you avoiding my gaze? I’m not a scary person. We can’t chat if you don't look at me. Hmm?”

He had Eruhaben use language translation magic on him, so it would be a waste if he didn’t get to use it effectively.

The bandits’ pupils were shaking as they looked back up at Cale.

They could see the red-haired man who was smiling at them.

‘He's the scariest one!’

This group of bandits was skilled as they had survived a year as bandits.

They had seen many strong individuals during that time, however, the people in front of them were stronger than they could ever imagine. The head of this extraordinary group, the red-haired man, made them feel like candles in the middle of a storm.

Cale looked toward the bandit kneeling in the center.

“You.”

He pointed at that bandit with his finger.

“Yes sir?”

“Answer my question.”

‘I don't want to. I really don't want to.

I'm afraid he's going to kill me.’

The bandit was stuttering as he asked back.

“M, me? But there are others as well. This is my first year, so I do not know much!”

The bandit had a look of despair as he saw Cale tilt his head to the side.

“Because I feel like it. Why? You don’t like it?”

Cale asked, thinking that he would make someone else do it if this one did not want to do so. There were five people, so he had options.

“No, not at all! Please ask away!”

Cale felt iffy after seeing the kneeling bandit suddenly start bowing toward him, however, he decided to ask anyway as he seemed determined to answer his question.

He had already heard the approximate location of this mountain on the eastern continent from Eruhaben already. That was why he asked something else.

“Tell me 10 bad deeds that your group has committed in the past month.”

“…Excuse me?”

‘I thought you said it was a question?’

The bandit’s pupils were shaking as he looked past Cale to Beacrox, who was putting on a new pair of white gloves.

They were currently by the large stone pillar at the top of the mountain.
