Trash of the Count's Family

The half-transparent shield surrounding the white castle.

The numerous magic bombs aiming for the shield.

Cale saw the large shield about to hit the White Star before the bombs detonated.

“Ha!”

The White Star scoffed, and a water wall appeared around him.

Cale could not see anything after that.

Boooooooom-

A large sandstorm appeared because of the large explosion.

However, Cale still got goosebumps on his arms.

‘…There's no…’

There were no changes at all.

He could hear explosions, feel the ground shaking, and see the giant sandstorm, however…

In this area surrounded by the half-transparent white shield…

Nothing outside impacted the white castle at all.

Complete protection.

Cale could hear Raon mumbling to himself.

“…Protection……”

He slightly turned his head to see Raon looking past the white shield with a shocked expression. Raon continued to mumble in shock. It didn't look like he even knew he was talking.

“…This is… mom’s…power……”

Cale and Raon made eye contact.

Raon's eyes focused again before he quickly closed his mouth in shock. He then hid his face on Cale’s shoulder.

Cale started to speak.

“What are you doing? She said to watch.”

‘Take a look.’

Raon recalled what the white Dragon Sheritt had said.

The small Dragon's head slowly looked up.

Shaaaaaaaaaaa-

A gust of wind took the debris of the explosion with it.

Then the results of the explosions appeared.

“Ha, haha-”

The White Star started to laugh.

“How entertaining.”

He brushed his hand off.

It was his left hand that had created the water wall.

There were no injuries nor any blood visible on it.

However, he repeated closed and opened his fist.

His hand was shaking.

There had been a strong explosion when the large shield crashed into the water wall. The aftershock of that explosion was making his hand shake a bit.

The White Star's entire left arm was shaking from the strength of that first attack.

“…Really……”

Of the five main ancient power attributes, the White Star did not have an earth attribute power.

That was why his body was never in balance.

This led to many situations where his insides would twist and make it difficult for him while he was fighting.

‘Yes, there have been many times that happened.’

However, he had never expected his arm to be numb like this from a single shield explosion.

“Really, it’s been a while since I’ve experienced something like this.”

The first attack from ancient Dragon Eruhaben had not even strained the White Star.

In fact, it had never been like this for the past few hundred years.

“I guess even as an illusion you are still the Lord.”

He continued to laugh.

“This much strength…how entertaining.”

He was still looking at his shaking hand in amusement.

There was someone else who was shocked by this situation.

Cale looked toward Raon.

Lord Sheritt. She had said that this illusion grew at Raon's pace and only had Raon's level of strength. That statement and the current situation created a question in Cale's mind.

‘Does that mean that Raon is strong enough to cause this kind of damage to the White Star in a single attack as well?’

Cale could see Lord Sheritt slowly descending to the ground.

She looked fine without any damage. In fact, the smile on her face made her look vicious.

Cale could see Raon looking down at his own paws with a confused expression as well.

‘Is Raon's hidden potential that high?’

It was at that moment. Cale.

He heard Eruhaben’s voice. Don't look toward me.

He quickly told Cale not to look toward him.

‘Why?’

He soon got the answer. Lord Sheritt is putting everything on the line right now.

Cale flinched. I'm certain that she must have anticipated that we were not strong enough to win against the White Star's forces without getting seriously injured.

Eruhaben had found that to be weird from the beginning.
