Trash of the Count's Family

“That is that Bone Dragon-”

People couldn't take their eyes off of the white Bone Dragon floating in the night sky.

Its body was a couple meters long.

It was giving off so much pressure that it was difficult to ignore it simply because it was made of bones.

- Hehe. Hey Mary, everybody seems shocked after seeing the Bone Dragon! By the way, black dragons are stronger than white dragons! Hehe!

Mary listened to Raon's voice as she recalled what Cale had told them before he went to meet with Marquis Helson.

‘We will reveal things to a degree from here on.’

Approximately fifty to seventy percent...

They would reveal about that much of their abilities.

‘I was planning on slowly getting to the center of the enemy lines while going through the test but that’s not going to work.’

Cale might not have noticed it, but he was quite angry.

It was the same for Mary.

The reason for their anger was because of a hypothesis that was almost a certainty.

‘Would there only be one of these tree monsters?’

No.

They were sure that there were more.

They must be all over this Xiaolen continent.

‘And someone is probably dying right now because of one.’

Mary’s purple eyes sank low.

SCREEEEEEEEECH---!

The body of the tree root that had numerous bones stabbed onto it screeched and flailed.

The movements were intense.

It looked as if it might be a final struggle.

There were individuals who did not want to miss that moment.

“Why are you letting candidate Heni Wishrop fight but not us?!”

“I'm certain that must be related to the rain cloud! We must investigate it!”

“Protecting the wall is rescuing the Empire! I cannot sit still as a candidate! We will fight as well!”

Some candidates went to the Lord’s Castle, some candidates hid after hearing the alarm to protect themselves...

There were also other candidates who wanted to show their abilities.

Some of them wanted to fight against this thing together beyond the wall.

“Unfortunately, no. The Marquis-nim-”

“Then what about them?!”

The Knight Captain of Precinct 9 was in an awkward position. He needed to stop these candidates from fighting against the monster.

It would get complicated if any of them ended up getting hurt inside Precinct 9 while fighting.

The central forces could use it to bring Marquis Helson down.

‘Fuck! Normally, they would have stopped by now!’

The candidates were rowdy.

‘Why did the First Imperial Prince have to come here?!’

It was because the First Imperial Prince was implicitly supporting the candidates’ actions by standing silently with his arms crossed behind them.

The First Imperial Prince had shown up alone without his helpers and had been quietly standing back there since earlier.

“Huuuuuu.”

The Knight Captain stood in front of the steps heading up to the wall as he started to speak.

“Candidate Heni Wishrop and her helper suddenly barged in; the Marquis-nim has asked that the candidates wait-”

“Move!”

Candidate 13 dodged the knight and stepped onto the stairs.

The shocked Knight Captain tried to stop him but the three helpers of Candidate 13 blocked the Knight Captain as soon as the candidate moved.

“Shit-!”

That was the beginning. The candidates all rushed onto the wall once they saw the opening.

‘These bastards!’

A fire was burning in the Knight Captain’s eyes.

‘Do they think that the battlefield is a joke?!

How dare they go against the Marquis’ orders and move as they please?!’

As for Heni Wishrop and her swordsman... The Knight Captain was planning on scolding them later as well.

‘No matter how strong you are, a battle is not something you do alone!’

This was why the Knight Captain hated necromancers.

Quite a lot of them were spoiled brats and did not know how to act properly because people around them started calling them an Emperor candidate and let them do as they pleased once they got the ability.

Of course, it was true that being a necromancer was a sign of glory.
