Trash of the Count's Family

TCF2-60

A pillar on a building crumbled.

“Aaaaaah--!”

“R, run- ahhhh, aaaaak!”

People who were in the old home rushed outside.

However, they had to run again after getting outside.

“Move, I said move!”

“Ugh, that, what is that?!”

The people in the garden, the people on the streets...

No, everybody in the nearby area was running away.

A person who looked back gasped in fear.

“E, eeek, eeeeeek!”

It was black.

The black hill was slowly approaching him.

‘What is going on?!’

This area was where the homes of the nobles were gathered together. In fact, this area was known as the best area in the capital as it was close to both the Huayans Estate and the Imperial Palace.

“Why, why-?”

However, this place had now turned into hell.

He and the staff of the building had gathered inside as things looked serious after they heard explosions from the capital plaza.

The people in his house were not the only ones who did that.

Everybody in this area was inside a house right now if possible.

The nobles’ homes had strong black magic barriers so it would be safest inside the buildings if something happened in the capital.

Furthermore, they also thought that it was extremely unlikely that the noble neighborhood, especially the one near the Imperial Palace, would be attacked.

Of course, he had wondered what he should do after he saw the fire shooting up from the Imperial Palace.

“So, why all of a sudden-?!”

Why did things suddenly happen here?!

This noble area around the Imperial Palace would usually be a quiet area.

However, some people had headed this way after the explosions in the central plaza.

Based on the observation of the people who work here, they were dressed like people who would not normally be in this area.

That was why he had grabbed those people and asked what had happened.

‘What happened?!’

‘There is a battle going on! The entire plaza is being destroyed!’

The people who were gathered in the plaza escaped to different parts of the capital to get away from the battle.

‘A battle?’

‘Yes! Ha, this is driving me nuts! The Imperial Palace and the House of Huayans- haaa, seriously.’

‘What do you mean by that?’

It was at that moment.

Crack, crack!

He heard something breaking.

That made some people scowl as they shouted.

‘I knew I shouldn’t have moved near the Huayans!’

‘We should have moved in the opposite direction!’

However, those shouts soon turned to screams.

‘W, what is that?’

‘...This is crazy, this is fucking crazy!’

And people were running away now.

Crack, crack!

That black thing that shot up from the Huayans Estate...

It had been the size of a house at first. However, it instantly grew before it became a hill and started to move.

It had been moving toward the Imperial Palace at first but it had changed directions.

“Huff, huff! Eeeek!”

The person running away had cold sweat on his back.

It was because it had become dark.

To be more specific, a shadow had appeared above his head and his body was imprisoned inside the shadow.

He was shaking as he turned to look behind him.

“...Ah.”

The black hill...

That thing was closer now.

“...Oo...ahhhhhh.......”

The black hill that he could see better now was not a hill.

There were countless numbers of black eyes on the black body. Those eyes were looking in all directions without stopping.

“Eek!”

One of those eyes looked at him.

‘...Ah-’

He couldn’t say anything and his mind went blank.

All his eyes could see was the black hill and the path it had moved across. He could only see the ground where everything had turned black.

The area that this thing passed by had become polluted.

He only had one thought on his mind.

‘W, will I also-’

Will I also end up like that?
