Trash of the Count's Family

“I knew these were tastier than candied fruits!”

Crunch crunch. Raon’s wings fluttered as he spoke excitedly while eating cookies. He seemed quite excited but the look on Cale’s face did not look good.

Cale had immediately teleported with only Raon as soon as he heard about Ahn Roh Man from the crown prince.

Thanks to that, he was currently in the crown prince’s office.

“But human, the crown prince seems to be so busy! When will he come?”

Of course, it was just Cale and Raon without Alberu.

Click.

The door happened to open at that moment.

“Huut!”

Someone gasped.

Cale raised his head to see someone’s whose face looked completely frozen as they fidgeted and moved back.

“…Shield……!”

That person became shocked at what he subconsciously said after the two of them made eye contact and closed his mouth.

“Haaaaa.”

He could see a sighing Alberu as well.

“I’ll organize the rest of these and send a report.”

“Yes, yes sir! Yes, your highness!”

Alberu closed the door and entered the office alone.

“Is that your new aide, your highness?”

“Yeah. I picked a lot of people this time.”

Alberu sat on the couch opposite Cale and stared at him. Cale started speaking after seeing the gaze.

“Your highness, I clearly reported that I would be visiting your office before I came?”

“That’s right.”

When Alberu had explained about Ahn Roh Man, Cale said that he would explain once he got there and that he would teleport over right away.

Alberu replied that he had something to do and would not be in his office but for Cale to come.

That was why Cale was confused as to why Alberu was looking at him in such a fishy way.

Alberu opened his mouth as if to explain.

“I guess people will find out that you’ve revealed yourself again?”

“I guess so? It’s not as if I was hiding my movements, your highness.”

Alberu smirked at Cale, who answered as if he still did not understand what the issue might be.

“It’s going to get quite rowdy after people hear that Young Master Silver Shield, the hero of our Kingdom, has returned to the Royal Palace.

Cale started to frown. Alberu didn’t care and continued to speak.

“A lot of people are going to be looking for you.”

“?”

“Because of the mines.”

“!”

Cale suddenly felt scared.

He felt as if he was standing at the edge of a cliff.

The mines.

The high quality mines he received as a reward from Xiaolen for taking care of the Black Bloods.

There were all sorts of mines including ones for jewels and magic stones.

Alberu and Cale had discussed about the mines and he was stealthily dividing them up in a way that would benefit Cale and the Roan Kingdom.

Of course, Alberu had done all of this as quietly as possible, but information always found ways to leak.

“I think only I have been too busy until now.”

Cale avoided Alberu’s gaze after hearing Alberu comment in a low voice.

“My little dongsaeng, your face looks much brighter.”

Cale had returned to his original appearance after leaving the Central Plains and returning to Roan.

Honestly speaking, the only physically taxing thing he did in the Central Plains was when he had to use his water power. In fact, he actually ate a lot of elixirs that are good for the body.

It made him look better than before.

He gained some weight as well.

“…Your highness, you truly, you truly-”

Cale opened his mouth but could not say anything.

Raon ate a cookie and answered instead.

“Hey crown prince! You look so tired! Why are you becoming more and more like our human?”

Cale avoided the crown prince’s staring gaze.

“Haaaaa.”

Alberu sighed before leaning back on the couch.

“I guess you’ve suffered more than I have.”

He meant it.

He was doing tasks for the Roan Kingdom while Cale was traveling through worlds to save planets.

Just the weight of those two tasks made it clear that Cale was suffering more.

Cale slowly started speaking.

“But shouldn’t it be okay because you hired a lot of people this time, your highness?”

“There’s not really anybody I like. I need to teach them a lot of things so I can’t really use them right away.”

Alberu shook his head as if that was disappointing before nonchalantly commenting.
