Trash of the Count's Family

“Huff. Huff.”

Lock, who was breathing heavily, froze in the spot. He felt as if the ground underneath him was falling apart and even forgot about breathing.

“Y, young master-nim-”

Rosalyn had told him on his way here that Cale was unconscious. He expected Cale to be pale and covered in blood, as he had been in previous battles.

Lock didn’t even want to think about it, let alone see it, but ran here as quickly as possible at Choi Han’s request.

And the reality he saw was…

“…S, something like this-”

He never even imagined it would be something like this.

Lock’s hands that were holding the orb were shaking.

On the bed within the office…

Cale was lying on that furniture that didn’t seem to belong in here.

He was pale.

His clothes were covered in dark red patches from blood.

Dry blood and dust were all over his face and body.

“W, why is your body, w, what is going on?”

He saw the cracks all over Cale’s body.

Cale had cracks all over as if he was a cracked marble. There were also large and small injuries all over his body.

Cracks and injuries…

Just seeing these things made it hard to breathe.

“I want to know as well. What is going on?”

Cale looked toward Mila with a stoic expression.

“Teacher, I am currently connecting together the pieces of your plate. Please don’t move.”

She pointed to the left side of Cale’s body. Something was happening on half of his body.

“See, look over here. The cracks and injuries on the left side are almost completely connected with a beige thread, right?”

Those spots were indeed connected by the beige thread, Mila’s mana, and slowly fusing together.

“I started with the left side because the side with the heart is more important. Teacher, please wait about thirty more minutes. I should be done by then. Getting it started is the hard part, and then it goes quickly.”

She smiled and Cale nodded his head before turning toward Lock.

“I’m currently being healed.”

“No, young master-nim- Y, you can’t c, call this healing-”

“Are you okay?”

Lock frowned as Cale ignored his stuttering words and asked something to him.

“Whether I am okay or not is not the problem right now!’

He had had so many things he wanted to say and was about to say them when he looked toward Raon.

Raon’s eyes were still teary, but Raon was smiling and fluttering his wings without knowing what to do.

Cale looked toward Raon as well.

“Are you okay?”

Raon was sniffling before he shouted toward Cale who was asking him if he was okay and observing him from head to toe.

“H, human, you’re a poopy dumbo!”

“…What dumbo?”

Cale looked stupefied.

Raon shouted once more toward Cale who looked stupefied but still thoroughly observed his eyes and expression.

“Human, you are a! Poopy! Dumbo!”

“…Mm.”

Cale debated for a moment before looking at Mila’s doleful smile and nodded his head.

“I guess I did act a bit like a poopy dumbo this time.”

“Human! I’m relieved that you know! You are a poopy dumbo! So!”

Raon stuffed his face on the bed right next to Cale since he did not dare to get any close while Cale was being connected together and shouted again.

“So, just trust me and leave everything to me from now on! I took very good care of things right now too!”

Raon’s wings fluttered.

Raon shouted once more with his voice muffled because his face was buried on the bed.

“I, if you do something like this ever again!”

Raon’s two front paws that were clutching onto the sheets were shaking.

If Cale used that power ever again…

“Human, I’m going to imprison you inside my castle! Of course, I will feed you! I will give you meat every meal! But I will make it so that you can’t ever leave your bed!”

“Oh.”

Raon flinched after hearing Cale’s response. He sounded…happy.

Raon jerked his head up in shock and there was a giant puddle of tears where Raon’s face had been.

“H, human! Y, you like the thought of being imprisoned in the castle so that you can’t do anything other than eat three times a day?!”

‘…Uhh…mm. Yes, I do?’

Cale thought about a slacker life.

But Cale could not respond, ‘yes,’ because Raon’s eyes seemed to be on fire as he rapidly shouted more things.

“Human! What about farming? I agreed to plant apple trees with the gentle Beacrox! I’ll make you apple pies! And what about our plan to travel the world? I want to travel the world!”

Cale’s pupils started to shake.

‘Traveling the world.’

Those words gave him the chills for some reason, but he decided to play along with Raon.

“We need to do whatever you guys want to do.”

“Human, that’s right! It’ll be fun to do everything together!”

As Cale was quietly taking in Raon’s bright smile…

– Cale, you’re up?

– Oh, holy shit! He’s finally awake!

– The Dragon is restoring his plate too! He should be okay now!

– This Dragon is really amazing! It’s a total jackpot! I’d even be willing to buy an expensive meal for a Dragon like this!

Cale chuckled while listening to the wowed voices of the ancient powers.

“Umm, young master-nim.”

Lock slowly walked over to Cale’s side. Lock was looking at how the cracks on Cale’s body were slowly being fused together by the beige mana.
