Trash of the Count's Family

The laughing Billos let out a short sigh.

“Huuuuuu.”

He had subconsciously done it.

Cale watched him sigh before nonchalantly commenting.

"I guess it is quite a headache.”

“...Mm.”

Billos contemplated it for a moment before nodding his head.

“I guess so, young master-nim. But it is still okay.”

“Because you participated in the restoration of Puzzle City?”

“Yes, young master-nim.”

The Flynn Merchant Guild had no head right now. Billos was in the process of becoming the head but the chaos caused by the numerous deaths in the House of Flynn was not easily settling down.

“His highness gave our Merchant Guild an opportunity as well.”

He was thankful that the Flynn Merchant Guild could participate in the large business of restoring Puzzle City.

“It is because his highness trusts you.”

Alberu approved of Billos's abilities after having worked with him multiple times. It was his trust in Billos that made him allow the Flynn Merchant Guild to participate.

"That’s a relief.”

Billos could not hide the bitter smile on his face.

‘Everything feels so futile.’

He felt empty right now.

‘...No matter what...’

He had wanted to become the merchant guild leader of the Flynn Merchant Guild no matter what it took.

He wanted to get past the situation of being shunned for being a bastard and desired to get his abilities approved.

That process had been going well.

‘It started after I met the young master-nim.’

Billos had built his power since building that relationship with Cale, being placed in charge of taking care of the magic devices from the Whipper Kingdom and other tasks.

And then things ended up like this.

The Merchant guild leader and his half-siblings were no longer in the Flynn Merchant Guild.

The only person to help the merchant guild rise up from this chaos was Billos, the person who had to run away while injured.

‘It is tiring.’

His body was still in pain.

However, he was not tired because the situation was like that.

It felt as if something, something that was making Billos move, had disappeared.

His dream of becoming not just the Flynn Merchant Guild's leader but the greatest merchant had not changed, but Billos couldn’t help but be tired.

He subconsciously spoke in a weakened voice.

“Really, it is a relief. At least his highness trusts the Flynn Merchant Guild when it is like this.”

“I told you it is not the merchant guild but you that he trusts.”

Plop.

Cale pulled a document out of his pocket and threw it on the table.

Billos looked at Cale, wondering what this document was, before he heard Cale speak in a nonchalant voice.

"And I trust you even more than he does.”

“...Excuse me?”

“Take a look.”

Billos subconsciously gulped.

His instincts were telling him something.

Cale Henituse. Just like that time when he realized that the 'trash young master’ wasn’t really just trash...

Something he couldn’t pinpoint, a sensation that he could not be sure about was visiting Billos right now.

Billos’s hand was shaking as he picked up the document Cale had placed on the table.

"Shh."

Cale nonchalantly commented as he opened up the document.

“I've already talked to his highness and our territory.”

Billos's pupils were shaking as he read through the document.

The word, mines, caught his attention. It was followed by the sizes and output rates of the mines.

“… Y, young master-nim-”

His voice was shaking as he called out to Cale. His hands clenched around the document.

"What is it?”

Cale nonchalantly asked Billos.

“You are the only merchant I have to do things. You know that.”

“...Ha.”

Billos let out a short sigh.

“Ha, haha-”

And it soon turned into laughter. A smile appeared on Billos's swollen face.

It made him look quite hideous but he didn’t care.
