Trash of the Count's Family

TCF2-70

- Human! I like this carriage! It's pretty!

Cale got on the carriage and blankly waved.

‘I didn’t even do this shit in Roan.’

Because this was a world he would never return to...

He held back because he currently had white hair, green eyes with a priest robe on.

He would have just run away if he had to do this in his true appearance.

- Human! I think I’m going to make a couple of these carriages! I’ll have to ask my mom and Beacrox!

‘Do whatever you want.’

Cale just waved with a stoic look on his face.

It was almost mechanical.

“Oh esteemed Purifier.”

Seated next to him was Imperial Princess Olivia, who would soon have her coronation as the new Empress.

“What is it?”

Olivia flinched at Cale’s rude response.

Cale didn't care and just acted as he pleased, knowing that he was leaving now.

Woooooooooooooooo--

Pop-! Pang!

Lalala- lalala-- lalala-

People continued to cheer.

Their cheering became even louder whenever they made eye contact with Cale.

“Oh esteemed Purifier!”

“Purifier-nim!”

Some of them must have been followers of the Church of the Fire of Purification as they were gathered in one area, kneeling on the ground and giving him the biggest respect that could be given to someone in the church.

- Keke.

Eruhaben delivered his laughter into Cale’s mind for Cale to hear.

‘Let’s ignore everything.’

He really wanted to ignore all of it.

“Mm. I just wanted to let you know that the former Emperor will be executed.”

However, Cale had no choice but to look at Olivia after hearing what she said.

The Emperor was her father.

“Is that okay?”

"Someone needs to take responsibility. Since the Huayans patriarch is not here anymore, the Emperor is best suited to take responsibility.”

Although Olivia was speaking in a calm voice... Her lips were oddly shaking as she waved to the citizens.

“You have to deal with so much.”

Olivia smiled even brighter at Cale's nonchalant comment.

“It is not as difficult as the path you are traveling, oh esteemed Purifier.”

“...My path is not very diff-”

“It was determined that the Fourth Imperial Prince and First Imperial Prince will be exiled.”

Cale looked at Olivia because she had cut him off but she feigned ignorance.

“They both requested to be in the front lines so they will be in the vanguard for the teams taking care of monsters. I plan on calling them back once some time has passed and my position as the Empress has stabilized.”

“...I remember saying that there is no need to tell me about these things...”

“The Agents of Destruction will use their attributes as mercenaries to go all over Xiaolen with priests of the Church of the Fire of Purification in order to accurately understand the current situation of the continent. Furthermore, the people who cooperated with the Huayans in the past will be sent to the extremely polluted precincts to pay for their sins. In addition-”

“...Your Royal Highness.”

Olivia finally stopped talking after hearing Cale calling out to her in a low voice before making a comment.

“Thank you very much.”

“Things like that-”

“Yes, you want me to stop saying things like that? But I feel like our compensation to you for all that you have done was lacking. Sadly, there is nothing we can give you.”

Olivia looked at Cale. Cale flinched at the look of desperation in her eyes.

“Cale-nim. Please stay here and slowly get some rest. We will get you anything and everything you want. Can’t you stay here a little longer? A year or two max.”

Cale avoided Olivia’s gaze.

“I’ve received enough compensation already.”

“...Will just that really be enough?”

The people of the Empire wanted to compensate Cale and his people in any way possible.

‘They gave us the entire underground tomb.’

While Cale was fighting against the Huayans patriarch in the central plaza...

Eruhaben and Aphei had gone to the underground tomb to swipe the jiangshis.

Of course, they took everything else in the underground tomb as well.

‘Imperial Princess Olivia told us to hand over the jiangshis but keep everything else.’

Cale heard the ancient Dragon’s voice in his mind.

- The Imperial Princess is very giving.

That underground tomb was full of extremely precious jewels, gold, and weapons.

‘There were a lot of highest-grade magic stones as well.

“Just that? Your Royal Highness, you didn’t even check the treasures that were in the underground tomb before saying we could have it.”
