Trash of the Count's Family

Choi Han took notice of every gaze that the people around the auditorium were giving Cale.

‘There’s nobody here as strong as Lee Soo Hyuk.’

Choi Han then thought about Choi Jung Soo.

Choi Jung Soo should be in the training ground doing his best to reach his limits right now.

Choi Han had a slight smile before it disappeared.

He put on a poker face and looked around once more.

‘There’s nobody as strong as Lee Soo Hyuk, but there are a few ability users at Park Jin Tae's level.’

The atmosphere was tense as the strongest people in the country, as well as the people who had the greatest chance of joining that group in the future, were all here.

Of course, none of them were openly baring their fangs.

They were all smiling on the outside, but their gazes were extremely wary of each other.

Each of their greetings was filled with attempts to analyze the person that they were greeting.

Choi Han could see sharpness, curiosity, and wariness in the gazes of the people as they looked at Cale.

Choi Han recalled what Cale had told him.

‘It’s been a long time since I've been the center of attention like this.’

Choi Han started to speak.

“You must have had a lot of situations like this, hyung-nim.”

“I may not look like it, but I did all sorts of things while I was a team leader.”

Cale nonchalantly responded before adding on.

“This is new.”

“Which part?”

“Who knows?”

Cale did not say much and just smiled while looking at Choi Han.

“I see a lot of familiar people.”

Kim Rok Soo had become the team leader after Lee Soo Hyuk.

He did not have as many achievements as Lee Soo Hyuk at that time. Furthermore, he had started as a rear support team member.

Whether it was for that reason or not, there were many people who did everything they could to not help him out when he first became a team leader.

No, most of the people did not trust that he was capable of doing a good job as a team leader.

‘Even if Team leader Lee Soo Hyuk personally named Kim Rok Soo to be the team leader after him… He’s only in his mid to late twenties and did not develop his ability until much later.’

Whether it was within the company…

In the government…

Or even leaders of guilds and other organizations…

‘Mm… Things really are slower than when team leader Lee Soo Hyuk was in charge. Is it because you were originally from the rear support team? It is not as refreshing.’

‘You weren’t even an ability user at the beginning of the cataclysm. We know better than you do. We will just do things according to our guild's methods. You understand?’

Kim Rok Soo had to report to those people or request for their assistance and cooperation.

‘Of course, I didn't just let things go either.’

Later on, people would say that they understood why team leader Lee Soo Hyuk named Kim Rok Soo as the new team leader. Some even said that he was even scarier than Lee Soo Hyuk.

But Cale didn’t care about all those gossips or gazes back then.

He didn’t care about any of that right now either.

But there was something new that he was feeling right now.

‘Those people that I had to report to and ask for assistance are all here.’

They were not as strong as they would become in the future as Cale remembered.

‘That is why I need to help them grow stronger.’

It needed to happen faster than it did in the past.

Cale was smiling, but his gaze was extremely cold.

Even Choi Han stiffened up a bit after seeing his gaze.

‘I'm sure this feels burdensome.’
