Trash of the Count's Family

Cale walked up the stairs and out of the Dragon’s tomb.

The Sichuan Castle Lord. He made eye contact with the Fist King as soon as he walked into the now ownerless study.

“It’s been a while, young master Kim.”

“…Uhh, yes sir.”

Cale flinched.

It could not be helped. The Fist King looked like hell right now.

‘Did he go roll around in a pit of dust?’

He had soot all over his body and was extremely skinny as if the moisture was sucked out of his body.

And his great-granddaughter, Mok Hee…

“…….”

She was blankly standing there as if her soul had been sucked out before bowing toward Cale.

‘They look like they went and struggled a lot.’

Especially the three Embroidered Uniform Guards who came with the Fist King…

Unlike the Embroidered Uniform Guards that Cale had seen until now, their armors had a fancy crest on them. They were obviously high in ranking. They also seemed to be blanking out a bit.

‘How much did they struggle if the people whose job is to protect the Emperor are blanking out like this?’

Cale looked at the metal container in the Fist King’s hand.

‘The thing in there is what turned these swords of the Emperor like this?

…I’m getting a bit anxious.’

He felt as if he could not take this elixir lightly.

But it made sense since the Fist King had to personally move to get this treasure of the Imperial family.

‘Will I cough up blood after eating them?’

The fact that he was fine after consuming the Dragon’s Tear earlier made Cale feel extremely unsettled that something big might happen now.

That might explain why Cale’s gaze could not move away from the box in the Fist King’s hand.

The Fist King saw Cale’s gaze and gulped.

‘How surprising.’

The Fist King had already been here and waiting before Chief Eunuch Wi could tell Cale that he was here.

He chose to wait because he heard that young master Kim was doing something in the basement.

As he was waiting…

‘That was a formidable aura.’

Underneath the study… He felt an immense aura from the stairs heading to the basement.

The intense auras swirling around gave the Fist King such chills that he couldn’t even be shocked at the loud banging noises.

Two.

He could clearly tell that two amazing powers were clashing against each other. The Fist King had no choice but to ask Chief Eunuch Wi what young master Kim was doing via sound transmission.

Young master Kim’s people looked so relaxed that he felt the need to ask stealthily instead of openly.

‘Chief Eunuch Wi. What is young master Kim doing?’

‘…A Dragon……’

‘Hmm?’

‘…A Dragon. He is consuming a Dragon, Fist King-nim.’

‘Ho.’

It was truly unbelievable.

Of course, the next sound transmission explained that young master Kim was not fighting a Dragon but absorbing everything that a Dragon had left behind, but…

Either way, it meant that he was consuming all of a Dragon with a human body.

‘Truly, where is young master Kim’s limit?’

Even thinking about that clash of amazing auras again gave him the chills.

The Fist King understood why his great-granddaughter and the Embroidered Uniform Guard were blanking out.

The strong auras that started from the basement and created such a shock that this large Castle Lord’s residence shook…

It would be difficult to maintain their full consciousness while feeling those auras.

‘Young master Kim. We have not even glimpsed at his limit yet.’

He is scary.

Kim Hae-il. This person felt scarier the more he got to know him.

‘The Imperial family-’

He had this thought for the first time.

‘Can the Imperial family control young master Kim?

Couldn’t he destroy the Imperial Palace as well if he wanted to do so?’

The Fist King stopped his thoughts there. Any further thought would be fear itself, so he could not think about it any longer.

The Fist King was feeling as if the elixir in his hands was useless.

This thought became even more certain after he saw young master Kim’s gaze.

Young master Kim’s gaze as he looked at the box with the elixir-

“…There is no greed.’

He did not feel any signs of greed or desire. What he felt was actually anguish and hesitation.

‘Ha.’

There were probably no martial artists like this anywhere in the world.

Elixirs and martial arts text… The majority of martial artists were people who would put their lives on the line and take another’s life for these treasures.
