Trash of the Count's Family

“Why would throwing money away be…?”

The ancient Dragon Eruhaben casually responded back to Raon.

“I threw away a lot of money when I was curious about the world too. It's a good experience to use as much money as you want as well.”

Cale was thinking that this calm ancient Dragon was probably no joke when he was younger as well.

Raon seemed to have snapped out of it as he started to speak in Cale's mind again. …Oh Goldie, that’s not it. Human! Goldie gramps doesn’t seem to understand your shockingly exciting action!

Eruhaben then asked Cale a question.

"When will you do it?”

“Tonight.”

“Tonight?”

Eruhaben thought Cale was going to spend a ton of money when he said that he was going to throw it away.

‘Using money at night… Is he going to drink some expensive alcohol? I thought he was going to go buy a couple mountains or something.

I guess his scale is quite small when it comes to money.’

Eruhaben looked toward Cale as if this was unexpected. Cale touched his inner pocket as the others all stared at him. There was a bag inside that pocket. …Hehe…It was two billion last time…This time it is five billion……!

The cheapskate fiery thunderbolt remembered Cale talking to the crown prince about five million gallons last time. He recalled something else at the same time.

The Fire of Destruction asked Cale a question. But can you use the golden plaque in the Eastern continent?

Cale had not yet used the golden plaque he had received from crown prince Alberu for his personal use. That was why the crown prince’s five billion gallons was pretty much nonexistent right now.

The fiery thunderbolt who realized that slowly quieted down. …I guess five billion gallons is not possible……

He did not say anything else after that. It felt as if he was probably curled up in a corner somewhere.

However, Cale didn’t care about that. He started to speak to the ancient Dragon and the others who were still looking at him.

“I plan to do it somewhere quiet.”

Choi Han and On's expressions turned odd.

Eruhaben’s expression started to turn weird as well.

At night and somewhere quiet.

This was a weird combination to throw away money.

However, Cale did not give them any more time to ask questions. He finished the sausage Ron brought for him before getting up and looking toward someone.

“Let’s talk for a bit.”

Screeeech.

A chair pushed back and the Dragon half-blood got up from the seat.

He didn’t look too good while standing up either. He was now weaker than the average human, however, the traces of his light attribute and Choi Han’s darkness were still clashing in his body and causing him significant amounts of pain.

“Follow me.”

Cale said that before heading to the third floor of the inn and the Dragon half-blood quietly followed behind. Raon was with the two of them.

“Sit.”

Cale pointed to the chair across from him and the Dragon half-blood with an indifferent expression on his face.

It was a neat but luxurious room. This room at the end of the third-floor hallway was for Cale's personal use.

Cale nonchalantly commented to the Dragon half-blood who was looking at him.

“How many of Arm’s battle brigades are left in the Eastern continent?”

He got right down to business.

That action made the Dragon half-blood chuckle as he started to speak. Although his limbs were still shaking in pain, there was no such shaking in his speech.

“The second and third brigades are left. There were originally three brigades, but didn’t you all destroy the first brigade?”

The first brigade that was the strongest in Arm was destroyed by Cale’s group when they were coming from the Eastern continent to the Western continent.

That was only possible because they were out in the ocean and had the Whale tribe helping them.

The Dragon half-blood now knew that the ones who did that were Cale's group, however, Arm still did not know the people behind the attack.

Cale did not respond to the Dragon half-blood’s question as he tapped on the armrest of the chair.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

The finger that was tapping in rhythm stopped at the Dragon half-blood’s question.

“Will you kill the second and third brigades as well?”

Although he had an indifferent expression on his face, the Dragon half-blood was quite curious about Cale's plans. Cale indifferently responded back.

“Who knows?”

Cale sat up a bit and leaned his body forward. He then looked at the Dragon half-blood on the other side of the table and continued to speak.

“Hypothetically speaking…”

Cale started to imagine a situation.

“…It'll be really difficult even with a lot of people if you don't have money or a home, right?”

If Arm lost their base and their money there disappeared…Then how and where would all those battle brigades and regular members eat and sleep?

“And if the mercenaries are chasing them around…It’ll be really hard, especially if they don't have any money or a base right?”

The corners of Cale’s lips were slowly going up.

“Then the Eastern continent’s Arm would want to ask the Western continent for help. But as you know, the Western continent's Empire, Arm, and the Alchemists’ Bell Tower are all in the middle of a war and unable to help. Then it'll be really hard for the Eastern continent’s Arm. Don't you agree?”

Cale frowned as if he felt sorry for Arm as he continued to speak.

“And then if people are going around saying, ‘we are the ‘Real Arm!’ and destroying the Mercenaries Guilds around the continent that are said to be corrupt, as well as rotten thugs in the underworld, they'll be really angry, right?”

The Dragon half-blood’s expression turned odd.

He tried to piece together what Cale had just said. Wasn’t he just saying that he was going to get rid of Arm as well as the corrupt Mercenaries Guild and the underworld?

The Dragon half-blood honestly answered back.

“…Are you trying to something good?”

“What nonsense are you saying now?”
