Trash of the Count's Family

“It looks like the White Star will soon come down the passage to the underground trap.”

Cale looked around after hearing Mary’s calm report. Most of the group were scattered and only Raon, the Dragon half-blood, Cale, and Mary were together. It was at that moment.

“Young master-nim.”

Mary hesitated for a moment before starting to speak again.

“…The White Star is smiling.”

As Mary mentioned, the White Star was smiling. The faint smile slowly became thicker until he started to laugh out loud as well.

“Ha, haha! How did I not know about this?!”

His eyes were sparkling.

Shhhh, shhhh.

He continued to grab the sand with his hand. The black sand fell through the cracks between his fingers as soon as he grabbed them, but the White Star did not care.

He lowered his body and took a breath.

“…As I expected.”

The White Star started to smile after feeling the dead mana entering his nose.

He then lifted his head. The ground and the sky were both dark because it was nighttime, but he started to feel the presence of death throughout the desert.

“Damn it!”

Bear King Sayeru who saw the White Star's actions quickly covered his nose with his sleeve. The White Star and Sayeru made eye contact.

‘What are you going to do?’

The White Star pointed toward the passage that was as dark as the sky after seeing the question in Sayeru's gaze.

“Everybody other than the black mages will go in.”

The black mages were excited rather than upset that everybody else except them were going in. They weren't as certain about it as the White Star, but they too had started to notice the dead mana smoke rising in the desert.

Dead mana was the source of power for the black mages. It was more beneficial for them to stay here and gather dead mana as the earth attribute power wouldn't be theirs even if they went down with the White Star.

The White Star approached a black mage.

“Thoroughly figure out what is going on in this desert.”

“Yes, my liege.”

The White Star turned away from the black mage and looked around the desert.

‘How interesting yet weird.’

The White Star had lived for 1,000 years. Naturally, he had lived in the Land of Death, one of the Western continent's five Forbidden Regions during one of his past lives.

‘I've passed through here too.’

He didn't remember which life it was, but he had crossed through this desert with flight magic to head to the shore when he was a mage.

He had not noticed anything odd during that time. He just found it interesting that the color of the sand changed during the day and night.

However, dead mana smoke was rising from this place.

It felt as if he had found an unexpected treasure.

“Hmm?”

The White Star then turned after feeling a foot touching his calf.

Tap, tap.

It was Sayeru’s foot. He was standing there with his nose and mouth covered and a frown on his face. He was gesturing to quickly enter the passage.

Unlike the White Star, dead mana was poisonous for Sayeru. It was the same for the Lion tribe and the other subordinates as well.
