Trash of the Count's Family

TCF2 - 5

Cale laid the unconscious child on the bed and the priest started to look after her.

“...Uhh... How could it be white magic-”

The most flustered person here was the mage.

“You, what is your affiliation?”

“Ah! I am a support mage of the Third Mage Brigade, Commander-nim!”

"What does white magic exactly mean?”

The mage, who looked quite tense while revealing his affiliation, had a confused look on his face.

“...Generally speaking, any magic that is not black magic is considered white magic. However... It is usually not called white magic but just magic.”

This world considered black magic to be taboo and was very wary of it.

This wariness could have gone up because of the black mages who worked as the White Star's subordinates.

It was different from people’s perspective on Dark Elves and necromancers, which had gotten better.

“Mm, the white magic that the youngest lady Orsena mentioned seems to be different from the regular magic we know and use.”

The mage shared his thoughts in a sincere tone.

“Your hypothesis makes sense; however, we cannot accept it until we are certain.”

The mage nodded his head as the knight in charge responded to him.

“Of course. The report will only contain the facts of the matter.”

Cale calmly nodded his head. However, his mind was moving quickly.

‘It is more likely than not that the mage is right.’

The Duke's House of Orsena.

Only a few people, including Cale, knew that this family was related to the Hunters.

He also knew one of the unique traits of hunters.

‘Those bastards can travel through dimensions and use a lot of peculiar abilities.’

That was why this white magic might be a form of magic that Cale didn’t know about.

It could be something that didn't exist in this world.

"Continue to observe youngest lady Orsena’s condition.”

“Yes, Commander-nim.”

Cale commented to the knight as he walked out of the tent.

“I will head over toward the main building.”

“I, it’s still dang-”

The fire was out but the main building was in such a terrible state that it wouldn't be weird if it fell over at any moment.

That was why the knight was trying to stop Cale, but he eventually closed his mouth.

“Yes sir, I understand.”

After considering everything this Commander had done until now, he didn't think that something like this would be very dangerous.

“Then I will go inspect the evidence left on the corpses once more.”

“Got it.”

Raon returned from making the calls as soon as Cale answered.

- Human! I contacted all of them! They said that they will all come!

Raon had come with good news as well.

- Billos has regained consciousness! He will come with them! Human, he says he must meet with you!

A small smile appeared on Cale’s face after hearing that Billos was awake and coming to the capital but he couldn’t help but think about the merchant guild leader's death.

“...It’ll be difficult for Mr. Billos.”

Cale silently nodded his head at Choi Han’s quiet comment.

Even if he was ostracized for being a bastard son, nobody could fathom what his father’s death would mean to Billos.

“Cale-nim.”

Choi Han’s voice became even lower after he moved to stand right behind Cale.

‘Hmm?’

Cale slightly turned his head to the back after feeling an unexpected cold aura.

“...Do you think that the Hunters are responsible for these fires?”

“I can’t exclude that as a possibility.”

Choi Han nodded his head, looked at the burnt Duke’s Estate, and made a comment.

“...They are trash.”

Cale flinched and turned away from Choi Han. Although Choi Han’s face was calm while looking at the tents and the Duke's Estate...

‘His eyes are... a bit weird?’

His eyes seemed a bit possessed.

Choi Han was giving off quite the vicious aura.

‘It makes sense.’

Cale was quite angry right now as well. He was so upset to the point that he could admit that he was extremely angry.
