Trash of the Count's Family

Choi Han just silently looked at Alberu after being asked if he wanted to die. Alberu, who had made the offer, slowly started frowning.

“Your gaze is similar to Cale Henituse’s gaze.”

Choi Han was looking at him with an extremely disrespectful gaze. He shook his head without any emotion visible on his face.

“Of course not, your highness.”

“I guess you accept that Cale Henituse is disrespectful to me.”

Choi Han did not respond.

Alberu chuckled and headed toward the terrace in the City Hall office.

Chh.

Alberu slightly pulled back the closed curtains.

“The White Star hasn’t appeared.”

Ancient Dragon Eruhaben was still lying in the Puzzle City Plaza without moving.

He was still pretending to be dead and Rosalyn, Witira, and Paseton were next to him to protect him and prevent anybody else from approaching.

Their excuse was that the talented mage Rosalyn needed to focus to check on the Dragon’s condition and heal him.

Puzzle City was currently in a lull.

The unranked monster and guardian Lion Dragon was in the central plaza without moving while Alberu had returned to the City Hall to get everything organized.

“That’s very weird.”

Choi Han’s gaze headed toward the desk Alberu had been standing by.

“We searched the area but did not find any traces of him.”

Choi Han had stealthily searched inside Puzzle City.

He had not found any traces of the White Star. He had not done it alone either.

“I did not find anything. Neither did Archie. It was the same for Lock.”

The people among the entire team currently at Puzzle City who were said to have the most sensitive senses and swift movement had gone searching.

“Clopeh found nothing as well.”

Guardian Knight Clopeh Sekka had used his wyverns to look for the White Star and his subordinates from the sky.

Although they would have been moving stealthily because they couldn’t let the White Star’s side see their movements as well, and that could have been why it was difficult for any of them to thoroughly search…

Both Choi Han and Alberu did not think that was the case.

“Something’s up.”

Alberu frowned.

“The White Star is not showing up even when Eruhaben-nim and Cale Henituse are unable to fight?”

Most importantly…

“The White Star is not watching this battle?”

That made no sense.

The White Star was trying to use the sealed god to do something.

In that case, he would need to meet the sealed god first, which was only possible by going to the temple where the sealed god was sealed.

In order to get to the sealed god’s temple, the unranked monster and guardian of the temple, the Lion Dragon, had to be killed.

‘The White Star wanted to make us do all of that so that both the Lion Dragon and our side take a lot of damage.’

But right now…

Cale had figured out the plan and stopped the battle against the Lion Dragon in Puzzle City.

‘It would be normal for the White Star to be anxious in such a situation.’

Alberu was organizing the current situation in his mind.

Why would the White Star be feeling anxious?

‘The White Star does not have many things left.’

There had been a summoning ritual for unranked monsters on Mount Nex with the Cat tribe and Lion tribe protecting it.

That ritual had failed, and Lion King Dorph was barely alive with Rasheel controlling his fate.

‘The foundation for the White Star’s subordinates in the Endable Kingdom has crumbled as well.’

The Bear King Sayeru, the black knight, and a portion of his forces remained, but they were not enough compared to the White Star’s forces from before.

‘That’s why the White Star would want to get the extremely strong and overbearing power as quickly as possible.’

The answer to that was most likely the sealed god.

But their side was unable to find any traces of the White Star?

Then there was only one answer.

“We were ‘unable’ to determine the White Star’s movements.”

Unable to determine and chose not to determine were very different issues.

“Do you think that the White Star managed to get his hands on an earth attribute ancient power? Something that would let him trick our eyes.”

“The chances are high, your highness.”

The White Star would have filled the last of the five attributes he was missing while Cale and the others were preparing and fighting against the monsters.

“Choi Han. The other esteemed Dragons are waiting elsewhere, right?”

“Yes, your highness. They said that they would go to the Henituse territory where Cale-nim is so that they don’t accidentally trigger the Lion Dragon.”

The Lion King had not reacted to Dodori’s mom, Mila, but had reacted to Eruhaben. Having Dragons like Rasheel or Dodori who have offensive attributes not being here was helpful not to rile up the Lion Dragon.

“You said that Mila-nim is currently fixing a jar?”

“Yes, your highness.”

“Tsk.”

Alberu clicked his tongue.
