Trash of the Count's Family

However, Cale could not be concerned about that for a long time.

Clopeh started speaking with a fire burning in his eyes.

“My lord, if you tell me what it is I have to do, I will-”

“Ah, hold on.”

He covered Clopeh’s mouth.

“Meeeeeow!”

He heard a meow and a red cat ran out through the open door of the black castle.

It was Hong.

Cale then felt a breeze brush past him at the same time.

It was Raon this time.

“I missed you, nya!”

“I missed you!”

The young Dragon and the young cat hugged each other.

They then started spinning around the grassy field.

On then showed up with Raon’s mom, Sheritt.

Cale made eye contact with On and asked in a casual voice.

“Did you eat properly?”

“I ate well, nya.”

Hong’s red fur truly was glowing and On’s complexion looked good as well. Cale was satisfied as On looked like she gained a bit of weight.

He spoke to On who was staring at him.

“Congratulations on turning thirteen.”

Hong and Raon stopped spinning after hearing that.

Hong ran over and stuck himself to Cale’s calf.

Cale looked at him and said what he needed to say.

“And congratulations to you for turning ten.”

After returning from the Central Plains, the new year had passed and everybody had gotten a year older.

“And congratulations to you for turning seven.”

He petted Raon’s smooth back a few times as well.

On, Hong, and Raon were now children averaging ten years old.

‘I guess On is now a teen and not a child?’

Cale thought about his youngest sister, Lily.

‘Mmm.’

Honestly speaking, On and Hong had been extremely dirty and much smaller than other children their age when Cale first met them. It was probably because they grew up without eating properly.

However, potentially because they have been eating well and growing well the past few years, On grew significantly after getting the proper nutrients she needed.

‘Should I be sending her to an academy?’

Until now, On had basically been homeschooled, learning a lot of things.

Eruhaben and Ron had paid close attention to On, Hong, and Raon’s education until now. When they were busy, there were a lot of people, including Lord Sheritt, who followed up with the children, making Cale not have to worry about their education.

‘…This is a difficult decision.’

However, the thing Cale was worried about was something that they could not learn from adults.

‘Having friends their age is important for kids like them.’

The children averaging ten-years-old did not have many others their age.

Of course, there were Tiger and Wolf children in Harris Village just outside the Forest of Darkness, but… It wasn’t as if they could frequently play with those kids.

‘They need to experience a gamut of things.’

On seemed quite interested in the academy as well.

“Ron.”

“Yes, young master-nim.”

“Get me some information about the Academy.”

“I already have that ready, young master-nim.”

Cale flinched at Ron’s answer before making eye contact with On.

On slightly smiled toward him.

‘Hmm?’

Cale flinched once more.

‘…Why?’

Why did that smile make him think of Ron?

He must have been mistaken.

‘On and this vicious old man are different.

Yes, yes indeed.’

Cale urgently shook his head as he spoke.

“Does Lily have no interest in the academy?”

“I heard that she is looking into a transfer because she has not been going to one until now, young master-nim.”

“Is it for her sword art?”

“No, young master-nim. The young lady wants to learn military science.”

‘Hmm?’

“…Military science?”

“Yes, young master-nim.”

Cale thought to himself after seeing the proud gentle smile on Ron’s face.

Cale realized that he had lacked conversation and interest in his younger siblings.

That was something that could be resolved during his stay at the Henituse Duchy this time.

“But greatsword arts and military science-

That’s a decent combination.

But if it is military science, it is beyond the level of territory defense?’

Cale would not think much of it if Basen stayed in the Henituse territory as his dream was to develop and grow the territory.

Actually, Cale liked that because Basen’s decision would set the minimum level of requirement for him to be a slacker.

‘Lily talked about protecting the territory, but-

Has her dream become even more grand?’

If it was military science and she wanted to transfer to learn the higher level military science at the academy… It seemed to be for more than just the territory.

‘Well, dreams are meant to be big.’

He had no idea how far Lily wanted to go, but he knew she would figure it out and do a good job.
