Trash of the Count's Family - TCF Part 2 - Chapter 233

* * *

After immediately connecting with the Black Castle via video communication device, Cale saw Mila awkwardly smiling at him.

“What happened?”

She answered Eruhaben’s question in a gentle voice.

– Mm. I’m sorry.

She looked like an older sister who had a troublemaker of a younger sibling she couldn’t control.

– I had nothing for that child, Rasheel, to do right now, so I told him to go to the top of the roof and keep an eye out.

Cale quietly kept his mouth shut.

‘She told him to go get snowed on and stay on top of the roof in this cold weather?’
Rasheel. He was a Dragon as well. Was this kind of treatment okay?

– He must have been bored as he sharpened his senses as he messed around. He then said he noticed a Dragon and took one of the human children around him as he left.

Mila shook her head from side to side.

– My goodness, that child is such a handful.

“Looks like I’ll have to nag him a bit.”

Eruhaben sighed as he said that while Cale, who had been quietly listening, felt a mysterious sense of leeriness and asked.

“Who was the human child that went with him, Mila-nim?”

‘Rosalyn? Choi Han?’

– Clopeh Sekka. He took that child with him.

Cale subconsciously commented after hearing that.

“He took the human who is just like him.”

Raon chimed in with a bright voice at that moment.

“Human, you are wrong! Rasheel cannot defeat Clopeh Sekka!”

Cale was not an inflexible person.

“That’s right. You are correct.”

He was someone who happily agreed when a seven year old Dragon was correct.

– Hoo hoo. I don’t think you need to worry too much. Little Witira went that way saying that she was bored.

‘Aha.’

Cale was relieved.

It sounded as if he didn’t need to go back to the Black Castle immediately.

– Plus, what’s the worst that could happen?

As Mila said that in a gentle voice…

– Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang—!

They heard a loud explosion through the video communication device.

– Booboboboooooooooom–!

They could see something through the window beyond Mila’s shoulder.

Cale subconsciously called out.

“Umm, umm, Mila-nim-”

He pointed past Mila’s shoulder.

“It looks like a mountain is crumbling?”

A white snowy mountain in the distance…

There was a huge avalanche and the top of the snowy mountain crumbled.

– Oh my.

Cale’s face stiffened a bit.

– That direction is where Lock went.

‘As I expected.’

Cale had guessed correctly.

Lock had gone with Gashan and a few others to visit the Wolf tribe hiding in the Erghe Mountain Range.

To be more accurate, they went to go meet the Wolf tribe’s leader, negotiate, and bring them to the Black Castle.

“I will return as quickly as possible, Mila-nim.”

Cale ended the call.

Honestly speaking, he was not worried about Rasheel or Clopeh Sekka.

‘Rasheel is a Dragon and Clopeh Sekka is a guy who will be fine no matter what happens.’

However, it would be quite bad if Lock’s group or the Wolves coming back with them got caught in that fight or the avalanche.

‘Tsk.’

The good thing was that they knew the location of the Wolf tribe and could teleport to them because Mila had escorted them there.

Cale would have immediately returned to the Black Castle if they didn’t have that information. He might have sent Mila back to the Wolf tribe village.

He looked toward the quiet people of the Haru Kingdom.

King Dennis felt a bit scared when he made eye contact with Cale.

He avoided Cale’s gaze and looked toward Bailey.

“…That lady is also a Dragon, your Majesty.”

Dennis let out a deep sigh at Bailey’s comment.

Cale didn’t pay the king any attention and said what he needed to say.

“We’ve discussed the important things already so it looks like I will have to go back to the Black Castle for a bit, your Majesty.”

Cale looked at Eruhaben who slightly nodded his head.

“Eruhaben-nim will remain here so that we can smoothly communicate through video communication.”

Bailey was relieved that the ancient Dragon would be staying here. She unintentionally let out a quiet sigh of relief before making eye contact with Cale.

“Could the Haru Kingdom please look into why the Holy Empire moved differently from what we expected?”

He said what he needed to say without any filters.

“We will take care of the fighting. As for other things we need, nothing needs to be said, right?”

“We will do our best.”

There were many meanings behind King Dennis’s short response.

“There are a few things we have prepared as well. We will put all of them at the most optimal state and contact you with the Dragon-nim’s help.”

Sssss, ssss-

“I didn’t have the time to tell you yet, but we have prepared our own way to fight the Dragons. So-”

Sssssssss, ssssss-

Dennis could not continue and turned his head toward the direction of the annoying sound he had been hearing for a while.

It was an extremely faint breathing noise.

He flinched after turning his head.

Cale, who also looked in that direction, flinched as well.

“…What are you doing?”

Cale saw Raon flat against the ground, shoving his short and chubby front paw underneath the dresser.

Clunk. Clunk.

The dresser moved up and down before Raon pulled out his front paw and raised it in the air.

“Human, I caught a snake!”

Sssss, sssss-

There was a beautiful white baby snake crying miserably in Raon’s chubby paw.

King Dennis shouted.

“S, Senior-!”

‘Senior?’

Cale was confused but the Prime Minister quickly spoke up.

“The Haru Kingdom has a guardian senior who is a Beast. This is that Senior’s child. I believe she is here as a messenger.”

Cale looked at Raon who brightly asked.

“Should I let her go?”

“…Yes. Let her go.”

Raon let the snake go and the snake quickly ran away from Raon.

Dennis stepped forward.

“Excuse me ma’am, are you here to deliver a message from Eldest Senior? How perfect.”

He was extremely respectful toward this baby snake.

The baby snake continued to make breathing sounds while moving quickly.

Dennis approached the snake.

“We had some messages for Eldest Senior as well. I don’t think our messenger would have arrived yet-”

Dennis flinched.

“Hmm?”

A confused noise came out of the boy’s mouth.

And-

“Hmm?”

Cale was confused as well.

‘What the hell?’

The baby snake looked scared as she charged fiercely and quickly.

Toward Cale.

Ssssssss!

She then quickly crawled up Cale’s leg and tried to bury herself into Cale’s clothes.

The snake that was only as long as Cale’s cheek was moving so urgently that Cale didn’t even think about pushing her away. He simply looked at the baby snake with a blank expression on his face.

The baby snake quickly climbed up to his shoulder before rubbing her face on Cale’s cheek.

Ssssssss-

Her breathing finally sounded relaxed as a cold sensation touched Cale’s cheek.

“That, that-”

As Raon looked at the baby snake in shock…

Cale moved his eyes to look at the baby snake.

“W, what the?”

He was so shocked that these were the only words he could say.

The baby snake looked right at Cale.

The white snake’s green eyes made Cale think of that crazy bastard.

It was at that moment.

The small snake’s mouth opened.

“Daddy.”

‘Hmm?’

Cale flinched.

‘What did I just hear?’

He blankly looked away from the baby snake and looked around.

The Haru Kingdom’s people looked astonished while Eruhaben looked as if this might be a headache but it was entertaining as hell.

“No!”

Raon’s chubby cheeks were shaking.

Raon, who fiercely shouted no, continued to shout.

“Our human is not your daddy! You stupid snake!”

The baby snake flinched as if she was scared at Raon’s shout before shaking as she stuck even closer to Cale.

She then rubbed her head on Cale’s cheek some more.

“Don’t rub your head on him! Even our human’s skin is weak! Don’t do that! Get away from him!”

Raon rattled off as if he didn’t know what to do before flying up close to Cale’s face.

That made the baby snake shake even more in fear.

“Hold on.”

It forced Cale to stop Raon from getting closer.

“!”

Raon looked at Cale with an extremely shocked face before slowly asking a question.

“Human, are you this snake’s daddy?”

“Haaaa.”

Cale let out a sigh.

“You know that makes no sense.”

Seeing him shake his head made Raon’s face light up.

“That’s right! It makes no sense! Our human is not this snake’s daddy! Our human-”

Raon suddenly stopped there.

Rather than pay him any attention, Cale looked toward the small snake.

“Are you scared of Dragons?”

He asked because this snake seemed extremely scared of Raon.

This snake also did not even dare to look in Eruhaben’s direction.

The snake nodded her head and answered.

“Mommy said to avoid Dragons at all costs.

Ssssssss.”

She then rubbed her face on Cale’s cheek again.

“Why am I your daddy?”

The baby snake tilted her head at Cale’s question before answering.

“Then, mommy……?”

“Hmm?”

What nonsense was this?

The baby snake continued to speak as Cale was confused.

“You smell the same as mommy.”

‘Ah.’

Cale could understand that the snake felt that way because of a smell, but he felt it was odd.

‘Looking at her, her mom must be a snake too. But I smell the same as her mom?

Do snakes smell?

No, do I smell similar to snakes?

‘What is she talking about?’

Cale was wondering about it before he realized that it had become extremely quiet.

The Haru Kingdom’s people…

The Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the King…

All of them were trying their best to not let it show, so Cale pretended not to see their shocked expressions.

He didn’t really want to explain nor did he have the time to do so.

“Sir Cale.”

It was at that moment.

Bailey exchanged glances with Dennis before looking at Cale.

Something was different about her gaze now.

‘What is going on?’

He suddenly got chills.

Bailey didn’t care and started speaking with a stiff expression on her race.

“…We know that you are not a Dragon. We thought you were human.”

‘That’s right.

I am human.

Ah, do they think I’m a Snake person now?’

Cale opened his mouth to quickly explain the misunderstanding, but Bailey was faster.

“…A snake who couldn’t become a Dragon. Sir, are you an imugi?”

Cale answered immediately as he was flabbergasted.

“No ma’am.”

‘Now people are wondering if I’m an imugi? I’ve basically heard it all now.

Mm.’

However, he felt oddly iffy.

It was because the red crown was in the spatial pocket bag in his pocket.

That crown was the combination of two crowns and an imugi’s reverse scale.

‘Is the smell coming from the reverse scale?’

The red jewel at the center of the red crown… Cale thought that the jewel must be the source of the smell as he opened his mouth.

“I guess Eldest Senior must be an imugi then.”

“…Yes sir.”

Bailey answered honestly as if she had nothing to hide.

“Ssssssss.”

The snake continued to rub her face on Cale’s cheek.

Furthermore, she finally said the message her mother sent her to deliver.

“Mommy is sick!

Whimper.”

She then weakly sulked.

“…Eldest Senior is ill?”

King Dennis’s face turned pale.

The final card for protecting the Haru Kingdom… It was extremely bad for their White snake senior to be ill.

Cale and Eruhaben made eye contact.

The gaze was enough for the two of them without requiring any conversation.

‘We should meet the White Snake.’

‘Of course, Eruhaben-nim.’

The Black Castle.

After taking care of things there, it seemed as if they would need to go see the White Snake.

‘Let’s go deal with Rasheel’s mess first.’

Then he would have a light conversation with a Dragon of this world.

Cale didn’t think that they would lose.

No matter how strong this Dragon might be, that Dragon was alone while Cale’s side had a lot of strong people.

“I will head back for now.”

* * *

Baaaaaaaaaang-!

There was a loud noise before Rasheel was smashed into a mountain.

“Ugh.”

A strand of blood dripped out of his mouth.

“Huff. Huff.”

Rasheel’s eyes were bloodshot and he was breathing heavily.

He looked down at his hands.

The back of his hand was all peeled back and bleeding.

“This stupid Dragon bastard-”

Rasheel’s eyes were full of rage.

His blood dyed the white snow red.

“Hoo hoo.”

A silver-haired man descended in front of him.

The man’s feet gently left footprints on the snow as he landed.

“That’s odd.”

The God of Victory, the lowest of the ten Dragon gods. Kendall.

He curled his silver hair with his finger as he spoke.

“Where did you come from?”

He looked down at Rasheel who stood up and opened his mouth.

“Crazy bastard.”

“Hoo hoo.”

Kendall continued to laugh as he spoke.

“That’s odd. I heard that all of the Dragons other than the rebels drank Holy Water. Why didn’t you drink the Holy Water?”

Huuuuuuuu huuuuuuuuu.

Rasheel bit down on his lips.

Kendall tilted his head as if he was amused.

He looked at the silent Rasheel and continued to speak.

“This is no fun because you are so weak. Maybe I should have brought some Holy Water with me.”

Rasheel’s tightly clenched fists were shaking.

He stealthily peeked around as he did that.

‘He ran away.’

Clopeh Sekka. That bastard thankfully managed to run away.

‘That bastard needs to quickly go inform them.’

Rasheel thought to himself.

‘There has to be at least two at my level of strength.’

This silver-haired Dragon bastard in front of his eyes…

There needed to be at least two Dragons of Rasheel’s caliber to take on this crazy bastard.

“Hoo hoo.”

The silver-haired Dragon continued to curl his hair as he laughed.

Rasheel charged at Kendall again.

Of course, he made a comment as he charged.

“Your laugh is so shitty! Stop twirling your hair like that! It’s annoying!”

He meant it.

Rasheel flinched at that moment.

His senses detected another living creature.

“Hoo hoo. It looks like some Beast people.”

This shitty silver-haired bastard in front of him laughed as if he was amused.
