Trash of the Count’s Family

acting like this?

He started to get annoyed even though he was full and relaxed.

“Your highness, shall I sit up?”

Cale tried to stop leaning on the bed and sitting up.

No, no need to do so. I heard about it.

Alberu no longer seemed to be in agony as he started to smile brightly. Someone might even think that he was out enjoying a beautiful flower field or something.

However, Alberu was feeling as if he was somewhere even better than a flower field.

You coughed up blood and almost fainted while trying to capture human traffickers in the Gyerre territory?

“…A part of it is true.”

He did not cough up blood or almost faint.

You used amazing charisma in order to capture the human traffickers, destroyed their buildings with the silver shield, and rescued the imprisoned citizens?

“…I suppose so?”

That was indeed what had happened.

However, it seemed to be a bit exaggerated.

You pretended to be drunk and observed the human traffickers through a restaurant window before confidently taking them on with just one knight by your side?

“…Could you please stop?”

Cale started to frown while Alberu started to smirk. Alberu seemed to be feeling good even though his face looked tired.

That made Cale realize that there was no need to go into details about today ’s event with Alberu.

“It looks like you ’ve already heard about most of it, your highness.”

He knew that one of the crowns informants would be in the Gyerre territory.

The crown prince was a meticulous person after all.

However, he had not expected that much information to be delivered so quickly.

Yes. My informant told me about the rumors spreading through the territory.

The exaggerated version Alberu discussed was what was quickly spreading throughout the Gyerre territory. The Duke ’s Estate had no way of stopping the rumors from spreading.

Alberu had come to a conclusion after hearing the rumors.

A good crazy bastard.

Alberu did not enjoy seeing Cale smirking at his words.

The other information he had received said that he did not cough up much blood but that there was only a bit of blood.

That would be why he was laying down to recover.

Then he could have rested and reported to him in the morning, but he was uselessly proper and waited until past midnight to report.

That was why Alberu found Cale to be the easiest to work with, even if he didnt like the bastard.

It was because Cale was similar to him.

What is it you need to report?

He was not the cruel type to hold up a recovering person. Furthermore, this bastard was the one who would soon go to the Caro Kingdoms auction house in his stead.

“It is just a short report. I will send you the documents soon, but the merchant guild that traded with the Chryshi household is from the Empire, and there is also evidence of the Chryshi household hiring an assassin guild in order to kidnap a child in the past.”

Alberu suddenly felt a headache coming on.

That is a short report?

“Yes, your highness. The Gyerre household will contact you soon. I put the chain on them so that you can use them as you wish.”

…I suddenly feel tired.

Cale could see that Alberu was brimming with energy, contrary to his words. When he thought about it, the crown prince seemed to be the happiest when he could use people to his advantage.

I will hold on to the chains tightly.

“Yes, your highness. I ’m sure that the wise star of our kingdom will be able to properly handle any issues that come up.”

Cale felt odd after finishing his sentence. He soon realized why he felt this way.

It was because Alberu did not hang up even after he was finished with his report and started to flatter him. Cale stiffened up while wondering if Alberu had something else to say.

‘Is he going to put me to work?

The satisfaction he had felt from throwing the Gyerre territory issue over to the crown prince slowly disappeared.

He heard Alberu ’s voice at that moment.

Sleep well.

Click.

Alberu hung up.

The crown prince had a look on his face as if he was being forced to eat something he didnt like as he hung up.

‘Something feels off.

Cale quickly pushed the video communication device away.

He then made a request to Raon before laying down.

“Raon.”

“What is it, human? Sleep well as the crown prince said!”

“I will. Ignore the calls from the crown prince for a while.”

“Alright!”

Cale looked at Raon ’s front paws that were pulling the blanket up to his neck before deciding not to pick up any of the crown princes calls for a while.

He then firmed his resolve once more.

‘Within this year, no, by the end of next year, lets deal with the North and the Empire so that I can relax in the villa.

Cale had such a simple desire as he fell asleep. The children averaging nine-years-old left him alone as they chatted quietly on the side.

“We only got to see the desert last time we went to the Caro Kingdom! We will get to see all of it this time!”

“I really like traveling!”

On quietly finished eating a slice of cake while listening to her younger siblings chat. Raon and Hong could not hide their excitement about their next destination.

“Our house is good, but traveling is nice too!”

“I agree! It ’s fun traveling together like this!”

“Yeah! I ’m curious about the Eastern continent too! Lets travel everywhere! We are great and mighty, so we can do it!”

They were saying things that would make Cale faint in shock. On peeked toward the sleeping Cale before shaking her head. However, she kept her mouth shut as she wanted her younger siblings desires to become true.

Hong and Raon started to discuss their plans to travel the world while On just sat there in silence.

Cale had a nightmare that night.

“Young master-nim, you dont look too well.”

“I had a nightmare.”

Cale shivered as he recalled the terrible nightmare.

His dream was one where he was traveling the world with multiple baggage-like people. The Vitality of the Heart could not heal mental damage, so Cale looked pale for the first time in a long while.

“Young master-nim.”

The person who came to see Cale cautiously started to speak as he looked toward the pale Cale.

“The Paerun Kingdom ’s capital was a nightmare.”

It was the Flynn Merchant Guild ’s Billos. He could see Cale smiling for a moment at his comment before returning to his usual stoic expression.

Bago City, the capital of the Paerun Kingdom. The location of the God ’s Tears Lake.

That lake was still on fire and the citizens of the Paerun Kingdom were talking about how this was the gods rage or the gods will.

Although nobody was hurt nor suffered any damages from the fire, the fear and uncertainty continued to develop in the minds of the citizens.

Billos was half certain that Cale ’s group was responsible for the fire.

“The fire is still not out?”

Cale ’s response made him become completely certain.

‘Young master Cale Henituse did something big again!

“Young master-nim, just what did you do?”

“Why do you ask?”

Billos started to get frustrated with Cales casual demeanor.

“The north is a mess, a mess. It is a total mess!”

“Good.”

“Ho, my goodness.”

Billos sighed in front of Cale for the first time. Cale ignored him and got on the carriage.

“Billos, lets head over to the Caro Kingdom right away.”

He needed to go to the auction house in order to hook a person instead of any item in the auction.

He also needed to get some money in the process.
