Trash of the Count's Family

The other monster was headed to Daeyeon station.

It was coming to meet up with its other half.

After having that thought, Lee Soo Hyuk grabbed Cale’s wrist and pulled the walkie-talkie in Cale’s hand close to him.

“Attack!”

His voice sounded urgent.

“Prevent the yellow head from coming here as best as you can!”

Lee Soo Hyuk knew because he had faced off against the blue head.

'We… Won’t be able to do it if the yellow head gets here!’

After going up against the blue head, he could tell how unbelievably strong this monster would be if the blue head and yellow head came together.

Lee Soo Hyuk could hear Choi Han’s urgent voice.We are trying to prevent it as best as possible, but we are unable to attack from the front nor the sides as it is digging a hole to travel underground!

And most importantly…It is moving too quickly that it is difficult to launch attacks from the rear as well!

Lee Soo Hyuk started to frown. He couldn’t understand something.

"What are you talking about? There should be some ability users with speed-related abilities there. I thought we split the people with speed-related abilities equally between each squad.”Baaaaang! Baaaaang!

They could hear things breaking through the walkie-talkie.That-

Lee Soo Hyuk felt frustrated after hearing Choi Han hesitate.

It was at that moment.

A cold and calm voice reached Lee Soo Hyuk’s ears.

“I'm sure the foundation is crumbling.”

‘What?’

Lee Soo Hyuk turned toward Cale.

But Cale brushed Lee Soo Hyuk’s hand away and brought the walkie-talkie closer to him again.

“Choi Han, properly report about the situation.”…My apologies.

Choi Han then continued to speak in a much calmer voice.The foundation has started to crumble because the yellow head is digging a hole to move, which is why we had to evacuate the people positioned at the stations.

“The foundation will probably crumble in an instant. You must have used the speed-type ability users to move all of our allies to safe areas.”Yes, sir.

‘Ah.’

Lee Soo Hyuk subconsciously gasped.

He had not even considered that the foundation might be crumbling.

But he quickly realized that the chances of that happening were very high.

‘Even if we started some work to repair it, this is a destroyed city. It would be weird if the foundation didn't crumble.’

The foundation could not be held up with only a few days worth of repairs.

Lee Soo Hyuk looked toward Cale with an odd expression.

Cale continued to speak in a calm voice at that moment.

“Was that your decision?”It was a joint decision by Mr. Man Soo, Grandma Kim, Miss Lee Jin Joo, and I.

There was a moment of silence through the walkie-talkies.

Eventually, Choi Han started to speak again.

-… I'm sor-

"Good job.”

Choi Han shut up after hearing Cale’s response.

“If we could only attack from the rear anyway, it’s better than pushing people to the point where some of them get hurt.”

Lee Soo Hyuk agreed with Cale and nodded his head.

Each and every person was precious right now.

Cale continued to speak to Choi Han.

“Choi Han.”

Lee Soo Hyuk could see Kim Rok Soo’s gaze turn sharp.

Cale’s eyes were looking at the ceiling as he continued to speak.

“I'm sure you’re chasing it, aren’t you?”That’s right. Of course I am chasing after it. I left the rest to Mr. Jang Man Soo, Grandma Kim, and Miss Lee Jin Joo.

Cale nodded his head as if this was the obvious response.

Lee Soo Hyuk felt odd looking at Cale and hearing that it was obvious for Choi Han to chase that strong monster on his own.

It felt as if he was seeing the bond between two people who had been through many battles together.

Cale started to speak at that moment.

“Choi Han.”

He started to think about the people Choi Han had left behind to take care of things.

Mr. Jang Man Soo's shield should be able to delay the crumbling foundation.

Grandma Kim would heal the wounded while Lee Jin Joo’s amplification would allow them to move people without any confusion or chaos.

Cale started to look at something else.

Bang! Bang!

The horn on the blue head started to expand the crack in the ceiling.

Craaaaaaack-

The ceiling would break soon.

He started to speak to Choi Han again.

“Don’t get hurt.”No need to say something so obvious, Rok Soo hyung.
