Trash of the Count's Family

< ...There is? There is a single-lifer around our cutie? >

The new letters showing up in the diary looked shaky, as if the writer was shocked. Drew Thames then stopped her shaking and calmly continued to write.

< That’s okay! It has all been settled so hunters won't appear! Our cutie doesn’t have to worry! >

‘…I hope so?’

Even though a part of Cale was telling him that he should one day dig more into the Thames household, the maternal family of this body… Another part of him was making a firm decision.

‘Let’s not look into it for a while.’

Cale decided to set the foundation in order to make that come to fruition.

“I.”

The others who came here to the North with him turned toward him after hearing his voice.

Ron and Beacrox… On and Hong in their respective arms…

The invisible Raon and the other Dragon Rasheel.

“Hey. The good human is talking. Why do you keep flailing around? Do you want to get fucked up?”

The last one was Lion King Dorph who was being dragged around in a large bag by Rasheel.

These were the members for this trip while Dodori remained in the Henituse territory just in case he urgently needed to head over to Puzzle City because of a sudden change.

‘How disappointing! I want to go with you too!’

The pink Dragon Dodori had been extremely disappointed, but one Dragon had to be close to Puzzle City and the buzz cut Dragon Rasheel adamantly refused to go to Puzzle City where Eruhaben and Mila were if Cale wasn’t with him.

‘…No thanks. Even a great Dragon like me doesn’t want to be around those old ha…no… Anyway, I will be going with you. And you better remember this. The fact that I called them old was a mistake. Forget about it. Ahem.’

Dodori and Raon had looked at Rasheel with shocked expressions, but Dodori chose to respect his wishes.

‘My mom is a bit scary after all.’

That was how Rasheel ended up coming with Cale.

Everybody, including Rasheel but not Dorph, was looking at Cale.

‘Something is odd.’

Ron’s gaze seemed very cold while looking at Cale. Cale had the same stoic expression on his face but his eyes seemed more complicated than ever.

‘No. Is it fear?’

He felt as if he could maybe see fear in the midst of the complication. Cale looked as if he was controlling his fear with his firm will.

Ron could hear Cale continuing to speak at that moment.

“I will take some time off after this is all over to get some rest and think hard about farming.”

That ‘some time’ Cale was talking about was a minimum of five years.

The part about thinking hard about the farming actually meant that he would push the farming back during that time as well.

In addition, the ‘farming’ he was talking about was more so the size of a small garden, as he only planned on scattering a few seeds.

“I’m going to quietly live as if I don’t exist.”

Ron then heard the residents of the area talking.

“The Western continent has been peaceful until now because Young master Cale-nim stopped everything for us. I’m sure that he will take care of this as well.”

“…The guardian of a sealed god……?! It sounds terrible!”

“I told you not to worry. Young master Cale-nim and his allies will take care of everything as usual. We just need to pray for them.”

Beacrox subconsciously looked toward his father who was standing next to him. There was a benign smile on Ron’s face but his eyes were looking past Cale’s shoulders at the people chatting.

‘I don’t know why such rumors have spread but it makes things complicated.’

Beacrox frowned while thinking about this rumor that was similar to the truth but completely different.

‘I understand their reaction though.’

God. A guardian protecting that god.

The destruction of the Western continent.

It was natural for people to become scared and look for a pillar of support after hearing such provoking words.

Both Beacrox and Ron knew that was the case, but they were Cale’s people. It did not sound good to them.

Beacrox looked at Ron and the nearby area before turning toward Cale.

‘I’m going to quietly live as if I don’t exist.’

Cale’s last words echoed in his mind.

Cale Henituse, the first young master of the Henituse household was called a hero by the world but Beacrox knew that he was just a twenty-years-old whose biggest problem was the fact that he was extremely weak if Beacrox did not make sure he was fed properly three meals a day.

Beacrox looked at Cale as he spoke.

“There’s no need to pay any attention to useless rumors, young master-nim.”

Cale looked toward Beacrox.

“What rumors?”

Beacrox frowned after seeing Cale ask back as if he had no idea what Beacrox was talking about.

‘…How idiotic.’

Cale Henituse has been so idiotic since he ridiculously started chugging alcohol and causing petty incidents while calling them acts of a trash.

Beacrox had not cared much about it back then, but Cale seemed truly stupid the more Beacrox paid attention to him.

“…Mm?”

Cale’s gaze changed at that moment.

Cale closed the diary and put it away before Beacrox could even question what was going on. Cale then looked around and smiled.

“There’s a weird rumor going around.”

Cale’s eyes were sparkling.

“How interesting.”
