Trash of the Count's Family

Lee Chul Min was the one to break the silence.

“…A, are you out of your mind?”

He could speak easily now that he opened his mouth to speak.

His voice slowly started to get louder.

“I always thought this son of a bitch was crazy! How dare you spew such bullshit without knowing what you should and should not say? Huh?”

Lee Chul Min approached Cale.

He looked ready to grab him by the collar at any moment.

“Enough!”

Park Jin Tae's loud voice filled the room at that moment.

“That’s enough, Lee Chul Min.”

“Leader-nim!”

“Be quiet!”

Lee Chul Min's anger instantly subsided after hearing Park Jin Tae get angry.

Park Jin Tae looked toward Kim Rok Soo.

“…Explain it in detail.”

Cale turned away from Park Jin Tae and looked at Grandma Kim and the siblings.

“…Hey.”

“Hyung…this-”

The siblings looked at Cale with flustered expressions

On the other hand, Grandma Kim was the calmest person in the room.

She gently smiled toward Cale. However, Cale could tell that this was a forced smile.

She didn’t want to show that her mind was completely chaotic.

She was putting on a front for Kim Rok Soo who was speaking.

She smiled as best as she could before starting to speak.

“Hey, Rok Soo. You know the weight of your words, right?”

That was why Cale had no choice but to respond.

“Yes, ma’am, I do.”

He looked back toward Park Jin Tae.

“It is exactly as I said, sir.”

Tomorrow at noon.

A solar eclipse would happen throughout the world at the same time.

That alone was enough to realize that this was no regular solar eclipse.

And one minute later…

Once the sun shone down on the world again…

Every central shelter on Earth would disappear.

Park Jin Tae recalled what Cale said word for word before repeating the last part.

“…Finally, the monsters will charge in like a tsunami and attack the central shelter.”

They all heard Kim Rok Soo's voice again.

“The monsters will not randomly attack together. They will attack based on their Grade.”

“…Grade?”

“Yes, sir. Grade. It is based on a monster’s strength and abilities.”

Park Jin Tae started to frown.

“…Monster Grades-”

Grades had yet to be determined at this time.

Cale knew this was the case as well.

However, people had investigated the issue of the central shelters and the monsters later on.

It had been based on what people remembered, but they were able to gather a lot of information that way.

One of them was the Grades of the attacking monsters.

“It starts with those at Grade 3 and below. Then the Grade 2 monsters will come. Finally, the Grade 1 monsters will attack. Of course, Grade 1 monsters are the strongest.”

That was why there was talk in the future about whether this pattern was some sort of training for humans to be able to fight against the unranked monsters.

Of course, the reality was hell for it to just be training.

Park Jin Tae looked toward Kim Rok Soo with difficult emotions.

‘I definitely felt that something seemed different, but…’

Kim Rok Soo had felt different than normal after being hit earlier.

That was the reason he had chosen to chat with him, but…

This was too difficult to accept.

Park Jin Tae opened his mouth to speak.

“… Are you out of your mind?”

That was the only way he could ask.

He then heard a response.

“Are you questioning my ability? Would you like me to tell you more?”

That response made Park Jin Tae shut his mouth.

‘You’re an ability user with multiple abilities, right?’

He heard the thing Kim Rok Soo whispered in his ear once again.

It was such a large secret that he couldn’t even get angry at the fact that Kim Rok Soo was speaking informally to him.

Park Jin Tae looked toward Cale again.

He pointed to himself.

“Tell me one more thing.”

Tell him one more of his secrets.

Cale chuckled at the gesture and walked over to Park Jin Tae.

Park Jin Tae's grip tightened on the couch as he watched Cale walk over.

‘He'll definitely tell me about the ability I'm hiding.’

Park Jin Tae started to get nervous.

Kim Rok Soo whispered at that moment.

“You are going to fight in the frontlines, putting your life on the line, if danger arrives at this place.”

Park Jin Tae's pupils shook even more than before.

“You’re going to say that the old and weak people are getting in your way of fighting and evacuate them first. Then will be people like me who don’t have any abilities.”

His voice was extremely calm as if he knew he was telling the truth.

Kim Rok Soo had already experienced it once before.

“The last. Once it is the last moment and everybody else is gone… That’s when you will run away.”

Cale moved away from Park Jin Tae's ear and looked at him.

The two of them made eye contact and Cale started to speak again.

“That's the kind of person you are.”

Jin Tae slowly started
