Trash of the Count's Family

Silence fell.

It was because Cale looked so vicious when he stated that it would be a shame if Adin died before he could kill him.

However, that silence was soon broken. Ha, hahaha-

Laughter poured out from the video communication device.

The bemused laughter fit very well with the refreshing coolness of the spring night. Hahaha!

However, the one who was laughing was Imperial Prince Adin. Huu, Cale Henituse. You really…

Imperial Prince Adin looked as if he was struggling to suppress his laughter as he took a few deep breaths and gently called Cale’s name. You’re really an amusing person.

It was a friendly voice.

He didn’t seem to mind Cale’s impolite speech and threat.

Several people frowned at Adin’s voice. He was speaking with a tone that would make someone think that he was treating Cale as his close younger brother.

In addition, he was relaxed.

The people who realized that fact weren’t able to stop frowning.

Rosalyn and Choi Han in particular did not have pleasant expressions. It was because the Imperial Prince had hit them from behind several times.

‘No, it’s a needless thought.’

Rosalyn shook her head.

What can the Imperial Prince, who is in the Empire and not here, possibly do?

She needlessly got anxious, but she shook off her useless worry.

Adin’s voice was heard at that moment. Cale Henituse, what is it that you want?

Flinch.

Rosalyn, Litana, and Choi Han flinched. In particular, Litana, the Queen of the Jungle, immediately knew what Adin was trying to do.

Appeasement.

The Imperial Prince was trying to appease the leader of the enemy now that the Empire’s army and his soldiers were being held captive. I want to know what you want. I thought about it carefully you know. What does Cale Henituse want? Money? Authority? Fame? Power?

Adin spoke in a pleasant voice that was characteristic of him. No, you don’t want those things. However, you definitely want something.

Litana could see Cale staring silently at the video communication device. Meanwhile, Adin continued to speak. You earnestly want, ‘something,’ like I do.

Haha.

Adin briefly let out a burst of low laughter and soon spoke with pleasure or perhaps excitement. I know the truth. The world may call you a, ‘hero,’ but you don’t look like a, ‘hero,’ to me. You’re not even a good person.

‘What kind of nonsense is he spouting!’

Litana subconsciously stepped forward at Adin’s words. Cale’s mouth opened at that moment.

“That’s right. What you say is correct.”

Litana’s gaze shifted from the video communication device to Cale. She saw Cale staring at the video communication device with a peculiar smile. Right? I knew that my judgment was correct. I’ve been seriously thinking about you this time.

Swish.

The black cloth that was displayed in the video communication device was slowly drawn back.

Then Adin’s face, which seemed to have a pretty good complexion, came into view. Nothing else was visible except Adin’s face and the black wall behind him.

Adin’s yellow-tinted brown eyes met Cale’s dark brown eyes. Cale Henituse.

Adin and Cale.

The corners of both these people’s mouths went up. You’re someone similar to me.

‘Similar to Adin?!’

Litana ended up taking another step or two.

Young master Cale was nothing like Adin. The Cale that she knew from the first time she met him in the fog-filled forest had put out the fire in Section 1 and has always been a righteous person.

He was someone quite different from Adin even though it couldn’t be claimed with certainty that he was a good person.

“You’re right. We are similar.”

Litana stopped.

Cale acknowledged Adin’s words once again.

He agreed that they were similar.

He himself stated that he was similar to Adin.

Litana looked around.

There were those like the Dark Elf Tasha who were just as confused as she was. Even the enemies looked taken aback. They seemed to be at a loss on what to do while witnessing the friendly atmosphere between the two leaders.

However, Litana gripped the spear in her hand tighter the moment she saw the expressions of Cale’s group. Hahahaha!

Adin burst into laughter at that moment and proceeded to ask Cale a question. So, what is it that you want? Can you tell me?

“Of course. It’s not like it’s something that I can’t share.”

Cale nodded. He then looked at the Imperial Prince who was laughing in delight as if he was happy to meet someone like him and bluntly answered back.

“I want to be a slacker.”

It was the sincere truth. What?

“I said I want to be a slacker.”

‘I want to wipe out all the people like you and comfortably enjoy the peaceful world as a slacker.

I want to live comfortably as a slacker without harming anyone else.’

Cale was being serious. It was a dream that he could confidently say in front of anyone. …Are you mocking my words?

“As if.”

It was an earnest answer that was far from mockery.

“Hey, don’t you know how hard it is to achieve my dream of becoming a slacker, huh? Are you dismissing my dream right now?”

Litana was at a loss for words seeing Cale acting like a classless delinquent for the first time without his usual charisma and elegance of a noble.
