Trash of the Count's Family

The moment Mary made the large white skeleton dragon...

“......!”

“...What is it, your Royal Highness?”

The First Imperial Prince, who was at the First Palace, suddenly jumped up and headed toward the window.

“...What is it? Something is weird.”

“Excuse me? Is there an issue in the document, your Royal Highness?”

The Second Imperial Princess, who was in the Fifth Palace, looked down at her arm. Her arm was full of goosebumps. She too got up from her seat.

“What the hell? Is there a new candidate? No- this-”

“Hyung-nim? Why are you suddenly out of it?”

“...Was the Emperor planning on using his powers today?”

“Excuse me? Why would the Emperor use his powers when he is just in the Emperor Palace?”

The muscular man with disheveled hair in the Ninth Palace put down his glass.

“...I need to head outside.”

“Hyung-nim! We can’t head out of the palace right now anyway. Please stay here and don’t cause any issues.”

“No. I need to check this out.”

‘Yes. I definitely need to see what is going on.’

The administrator in charge of recruitment tried his best to understand what he was seeing right now.

The traces of glory for someone who survived dead mana.

Furthermore, the black threads coming out of her fingertips...

Finally, the dragon made of white bones flying above her.

“Ah, ah-”

The administrator barely managed to snap out of it, unlike his friend who was still in a daze. No, he didn't manage to completely snap out of it either.

His heart was shaking.

‘...It's different! It’s different!’

This woman in front of him was different.

Although the First Imperial Prince also used all of the bones to make a monster, it wasn't as grand as this dragon.

‘Flying skeleton monsters are quite difficult to handle. Furthermore, she doesn't seem to be struggling at all!’

The administrator subconsciously spoke with honorifics toward Mary, but he did not realize it.

Instead, he picked up a pen with his shaking hands.

“M, ma'am, may I ask your name?”

“Heni Wishrop.”

‘Wishrop?’

The administrator hesitated as he sort of recognized the name when his friend started to mumble.

“The perished-”

‘Ah! The perished kingdom of Wishrop!

Could it be?’

The administrator's eyes headed toward Mary. The woman with purple eyes calmly spoke with a look of indifference on her face.

“I carry the blood of the royal family of Wishrop and do not have a middle name yet.”

- Human! Heni Wishrop, the name Heni is so pretty! Isn't Mary’s name so pretty? I came up with it! I got it from Henituse!

Cale did not react at all to Raon's comments.

‘The Hunters might know the name, Mary. Necromancer Mary is quite easy information for them to distinguish. Although nobody has really seen your appearance, it is probably better to use a fake name.’

Her name became Heni Wishrop at Raon’s suggestion and Mary’s acceptance.

“Umm, I truly apologize for this ma’am, but may I see something to verify your identity?”

The administrator seemed quite wary of angering Mary as he cautiously asked. Cale smiled underneath the hood as he watched the administrator’s demeanor.

‘Mary really did leave a strong first impression.’

- Human! Our Mary is so cool!

‘I agree.’

Cale agreed with Raon internally.

“Here is the crest of the Wishrop royal family.”

Mary pulled a ring out of a pocket in her robe and handed it over.

“It is fine if you verify it.”

The administrator had a handkerchief over both hands as he quickly received the ring respectfully.

‘If this crest is real-!’

Although it was not at the level of the Iska Empire's Imperial family, this woman would have quite a bit of legitimacy as well.

There were many people until now from perished kingdoms and even ones that still existed who tried to register for this Imperial Crown Prince candidate test.

‘Most of them were half-assed or people with reckless dreams.’

However, this Heni Wishrop in front of him, even without her identity, her skills alone was enough to make him think about the most likely Imperial Crown Prince candidate, the First Imperial Prince.

‘No. She might even be stronger than his Royal Highness.’

The administrator felt himself getting calmer for some odd reason. Of course, it was not that the shaking had stopped.

“Verify it carefully.”

“O, okay.”
