Trash of the Count's Family

‘Ha.’

Cale let out a short sigh internally.

Cale saw dozens of people as soon as he entered the priestess’s room.

They were surrounding and protecting the bed at the center as if they were walls.

These people, who had not even groaned as the wall crumbled, also had masks on their faces as they observed Cale.

It was as if they could not forgive an enemy who was aiming for the priestesses.

Cale looked at the bed behind them.

“It really wasn’t just one person.”

Myung had given this order when they first saw her.

‘Go immediately and protect the priestess-nims. Also, inform the Blood Demon-nim.’

She had said priestess-nims, plural.

– Human, are there two priestesses?

“Yeah. I guess so.”

There were two women on the bed.

To be more specific, there was a woman who seemed to be old and a young girl.

The old woman glared at Cale.

Cale nonchalantly commented after seeing her gaze.

“You must be the priestess of the last generation?”

Hoya and Yoon had said that a new priestess had been selected, not multiple new priestesses.

That meant that the answer was obvious.

One was the last generation’s priestess.

The other person was the one who became a priestess this time.

“…….”

The old woman kept her mouth shut while continuing to stare at Cale.

Cale did not pay much attention to this woman who did not answer.

Instead, he looked toward the other person.

“…It’s a familiar face.”

One of the important noble houses in the Roan Kingdom’s capital…

The Duke’s House of Orsena.

That place was burned to the ground.

Most of the people had lost their lives and the person who was suspected of being the culprit, the eldest young lady Orsena was missing.

Furthermore, the youngest young lady of the House of Orsena, the only one to survive, had been abducted by the Hunters who had attacked the Roan Palace.

– Human, it is the youngest young lady Orsena!

That youngest young lady was in front of them as the new priestess.

All emotions disappeared from Cale’s face.

– …Human.

Raon cautiously commented.

– …The youngest young lady’s condition seems weird. It’s a bit, a bit, mm.

Raon could not describe it.

It could not be helped.

The young girl’s eyes were not focused. She was blankly looking into the air with her mouth open.

This young girl, who was even younger than Hong, had been pretty petite to start, but she was extremely skinny and fragile looking now.

Of course, the clothes she was wearing were dazzling as if they were embroidered in gold and her hair and wrists were decorated with beautiful accessories, but…

– Mm mm. She seems a bit crazy…

As Raon mentioned, the young girl’s condition was too different from her original appearance.

She looked like someone who was drugged.

“Haa.”

Cale was flabbergasted.

This little girl had seemed quite anxious when the Duke’s House of Orsena was destroyed, but… At least her body had been fine.

Furthermore, her eyes had been bright despite having been scared.

He subconsciously made a comment.

“What the hell did you do to a kid?”

He scowled.

The people protecting the priestesses did not respond to Cale.

Furthermore, the old woman tightly hugged the young girl and glared at Cale.

She then mouthed something.

No sound came out.

‘!’

However, Cale’s eyes clouded over.

It was at that moment.

“We must evacuate the priestess-nims!”

Cale heard Myung’s shout behind him.

“Attack!”

Clang, clang!

The people who had been blasted away by Raon’s wind magic regained consciousness and charged toward Cale with their weapons.

Oooooo-

Blue aura was rising from Myung’s sword as she charged in front of the group.

Boom!

Furthermore, the people protecting the priestesses all took a step forward at the same time and put their hands on their scabbards.

They looked ready to pull their swords and charge at Cale at any moment.

“Please come this way.”
