Trash of the Count's Family

Raon continued to tilt his head.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

His heart was beating wildly.

It was not painful.

Nervousness? Fear? Joy?

Raon could not figure out why his heart was beating like this.

“What are you doing?”

Raon could see Cale, who grabbed his front paw that was pounding his chest.

“Youngest, I want to know why you are doing that!”

Hong had walked up underneath the floating Raon and was looking up as well.

Raon started to smile.

“It’s nothing! My heart is just beating really fast! It must be because I am the great and mighty Raon Miru!”

Raon could see Cale’s suspicious gaze at that moment.

“Is it a cold again?”

That question made Raon recall how he had gotten a cold when they went to visit the Whale tribe village a long time ago. He was a great and mighty Dragon, but he had still caught a cold.

Raon puffed up his chest and responded back.

“No! I am not sick! It is not a cold! I am great and mighty, so I will never catch a cold again!”

‘Aigoo.’

Cale started to shake his head. Raon used temperature management magic on On, Hong, himself, and the rest.

“Oh! It’s not cold at all!”

“I am great and mighty!”

Raon and Hong were running through the white pebbles or in the sky even with the snow falling on them. Cale then turned his gaze.

“Mmph!”

He then flinched.

“…Eruhaben-nim?”

Eruhaben was standing right next to him.

However, Eruhaben was not looking at Cale. He was looking at Raon with an odd gaze before turning toward Cale and casually making a comment.

“…Something is weird.”

“Excuse me? Weird?”

Cale knew that Eruhaben’s gaze had been on Raon just now and quickly started to speak.

“Are you talking about Raon?”

“No. You.”

“…Excuse me?”

The ancient Dragon sternly responded back to Cale, who blankly asked in confusion.

“That crown in your hand.”

Mercenary King Bud Illis chimed in at that moment. He had left his highest-grade mage friend, Glenn Poeff, to deal with the issues and accompanied Cale's group here.

“I think… Even I think that something is weird about the thing in your hand as Eruhaben-nim mentioned. What is it?”

Bud's eyes were sparkling with curiosity.

Cale unexpectedly responded the way he wanted to respond after seeing the look on Bud’s face.

“I don't want to tell you.”

Seeing those sparkling eyes made him not want to answer.

Smirk.

Bud smirked as he answered back.

“Then don’t tell me!”

‘…This weird bastard.’

Cale could not figure Bud out. Bud didn't care as he started to speak again. The others gathered around him.

“Honestly speaking, we came here because you said the Dragon Slayer village might be here, right? Isn’t that the case, Eruhaben-nim?”

“Correct.”

Bud seemed more excited after hearing Eruhaben’s response and raised the tension as he continued to speak.

“This place!”

He picked up some white pebbles in both hands. The pebbles just fell out through the gap between his hands.

“There is nothing here!”

‘…What?’

Cale 's gaze headed toward Bud’s eyes.

“This is a place where only these white sand pebbles, white trees, and the white snow exists.”

Ron chimed in as well.

“This is somewhere that life cannot grow.”

The thought of dead mana crossed Cale's mind.

“It is not because of dead mana.”

However, Ron's explanation made him push that aside and question the reason.

“Why can’t life grow here?”

Ron and Bud both responded to that question.
