Trash of the Count's Family

The four directions of the Mogoru Empire.

Bud started to imagine the soldiers in the quiet splitting apart toward all four directions at once to suppress the enemies.

‘As expected. It really is different when I travel with this bastard!’

Bud’s eyes lit up with an odd look of passion as he looked toward Cale.

The Mogoru Empire.

It was currently a nation without a ruler.

In some aspects, it could seem as if Cale was helping this Sir Rex character, but Cale would not have stepped in just for that reason.

There was something that Cale had said to Choi Han, Raon, and Bud before they came here.

Bud recalled what Cale had said.

‘Apparently, the person with the sky attribute ancient power needs to ingest dead mana.’

Bud had asked back.

‘Why? Why do they need dead mana?’

‘I don't know for sure either. But I assume it would be for one of two reasons.’

‘What are those two reasons?’

Bud recalled Cale's response.

‘Either for fuel or to act as an inhibitor.’

Dead mana could be the fuel necessary to use the sky attribute ancient power.

It could also be the inhibitor to suppress the strength of the sky attribute ancient power so that it does not run wild and destroy the body.

Bud returned to the present and looked toward Cale’s mouth that was slowly starting to open again.

“Do you all agree?”

‘Do we agree?’

Bud immediately responded.

“Of course!”

It was important to settle the Empire's internal affairs that could lead to a revolt.

However, there was another reason Bud was willing to move.

‘Dead mana. We need to get rid of it!’

The Alchemists’ Towers to the North, South, East, and West.

They needed to get rid of all traces of black magic and dead mana at those locations.

‘I’m certain that Cale Henituse is participating in this for that reason as well as the peace of the Empire.’

Bud smiled at Cale who turned toward him with a stoic expression after hearing his response. He could also see the others agreeing with Cale's words.

Unfortunately, Bud’s smile soon had to freeze.

“But I don't want to.”

It was the sword master Hannah.

“I can’t accept it.”

Bud found her response to be odd.

‘Wasn't she happy until just now that she would get to fight?

Why is she now saying that she cannot accept it?’

Bud could not understand.

His eyes headed toward Hannah.

‘…I have no information on her personality nor her tendencies.’

The Mercenaries Guild did not have much information on Hannah.

Cale started to speak at that moment.

“…We will need to listen to Sir Rex and the others’ opinions as well.”

Sir Rex, alchemist Rei Stecker, and Saint Jack were not here. This plan was only possible if the three of them agreed to it.

Cale then looked toward Hannah who was the first to oppose the idea.

He could see that she was smiling. He nonchalantly asked her a question.

"Why not? Is it not enough for you?”

Bud’s eyes opened wide.

‘Not enough? What does that mean?’

Cale soon answered that question.

“Are you not satisfied because I left the North to you when you should be handling the strongest enemies in the South?”

Hannah started to laugh again.

“Ha, hahaha!”

She laughed for a while before calmly responding.

“That’s right. My hands are itching to fight. I thought it would be at least two directions. I thought you would let me run wild in two places.”

Although her voice was calm, her gaze was telling Cale to give her what she wanted. Cale responded without avoiding her eyes.

“Quickly take care of it and come back.”

“…What?”

Cale lightly shrugged his shoulders at Hannah’s question.

“Take care of the North first and then come to the East, West, or South, wherever you want to go. Then there are no issues, right?”

Hannah was silent for a moment before she nodded her head.

“Sounds good.”

She looked toward Cale and Rosalyn as she continued to speak.

“You're really planning on only supporting?”

“This is the Empire’s business.”

Cale responded without any hesitation while Rosalyn smiled and responded.

“This unni is very good at supporting.”

Hannah waved her hand and pretended not to hear them as she got up.

Screeeech.

Her chair screeched as she got up and headed for the door.

She stood in front of the door and looked back toward Cale and Rosalyn. These two were in charge of everything right now.

Hannah started to speak.
