Trash of the Count's Family

Cale didn't care whether Alberu ignored him or not as he walked over and sat down on a chair.

“Please sit down.”

He then motioned for Rosalyn to sit down on another chair.

“Hey, crown prince! I told them we were coming here! I came to the coordinates of the last call we had on the video communication device!”

“… I see, Raon-nim.”

Alberu just weakly nodded his head at Raon's imposing shout.

Thirty minutes ago.

Alberu was wondering what nonsense Cale was talking about when he suddenly got a call saying Cale was going to come to his bedroom.

However, he had no choice but to tell Cale to hurry over after hearing what it was about.

“The others will soon arrive.”

Nobody asked about who the others were.

“Your highness, this cookie is delicious.”

Cale looked relaxed as he ate a cookie from a basket on top of the table. He looked right at home.

“Miss Rosalyn, have some. It’s very good.”

“I'm okay, young master Cale.”

“Or would you like some tea?”

“Mm.”

Rosalyn peeked toward Alberu before nodding her head with an awkward expression.

“Tea sounds good.”

“…Please wait.”

Alberu sighed before getting up and heading to a cupboard on one side of the bedroom. There were simple magic cooking devices underneath it.

Alberu enjoyed having some tea to survive while working late at night. There was quite a lot of tea in the cupboard and Alberu looked experienced as he placed the pot on the fire to boil some water.

“You look like you do this often, your highness.”

Alberu nodded his head after hearing Rosalyn sound as if the fact that the crown prince was personally brewing tea and had such devices in his bedroom was weird.

“I've enjoyed tea since I was young, so I've brewed quite a lot of it.”

‘Ah.’

Rosalyn held back her gasp.

Crown prince Alberu Crossman. He actually had an unfortunate childhood.

Alberu Crossman who grew up alone in the palace after his mother's death had nobody who could publicly be a strong shield for him.

Of course, she now knew that Tasha and the Dark Elves had helped Alberu in the dark, but crown prince Alberu pretty much grew up alone in dealing with others.

‘That is why I'm sure there were a lot of things he's had to do on his own since he was young.’

It was even possible that Alberu had suffered even more than Rosalyn imagined as he grew up.

He looked like someone who grew up without any suffering in his life, however, Rosalyn knew that this was a result of her prejudice and casually commented instead.

“I'm already looking forward to the tea you personally brewed, your highness.”

“Well, I'm just adequate at it.”

Alberu responded with an awkward smile before Cale and Raon started to speak.

“Your highness, a cup for me as well please.”

“Hey, crown prince! Don't you have any juice?”

‘Aigoo.’

Alberu felt a headache coming. He pressed his temples with one hand while taking two more cups out with his other hand.

He then took some apple juice out of a box enchanted with cool magic and poured it into one of the cups.

“Ohhhhh! Hey crown prince, I knew you were a good crown prince! I like apples! Apple pies are the best!”

“…Should I give you some apple pie as well, Raon-nim?”

“I have a lot of them! I will give you one!”

Alberu watched Raon grab the cup of juice with his paws, fly over to Cale, sit down on the chair and start to slurp the juice before turning back toward the teapot.

Raon used his magic to take a bunch of apple pies out and fill the cookie basket at that moment.

“Human! Eat a lot of apple pies!”

“Okay.”

Cale started to eat a piece of apple pie without giving it much thought.

Rosalyn just quietly observed Cale and Alberu.

‘I'm sure his mind is a complicated mess right now.’

She could see Alberu’s agony as she watched him look at the teapot. She then started to think about the Breck Kingdom that she left behind.

Her young brother ended up taking the position she had thrown away.

Wouldn’t her younger brother’s back look similar to Alberu’s?

The leaders of the Western continent's kingdoms who knew a bit about the current situation were filled with concern and doubt.

This was especially the case for the kingdoms that knew about the existence of the White Star.

They were scared to know what the future held.

That was what it meant to be responsible for a nation.

‘…I'm sure that’s the case for young master Cale as well.’

In Rosalyn’s opinion, Cale Henituse was probably the one who was suffering the most. She could not even fathom how complicated Cale’s mind was right now.

She pitifully looked at Cale who was blankly eating apple pies in his short moment of rest.

The person who was known as trash for drinking too much barely drank anymore. He also did not have any hobbies or got to play around.

He worked hard and just ate and slept when he had some free time.

Rosalyn pushed the cookie basket in front of Cale.

Tap.

A teacup was then placed in front of her.

“Thank you very much, your highness.”

“It was nothing.”

Alberu motioned to Rosalyn with his hand to say that it was nothing before placing the other teacup in front of Cale and sat at the head of the table between Cale and Rosalyn.

He then nonchalantly added on.
