Trash of the Count’s Family

or reference, ancient Dragon Eruhaben was supposedly busy building a new lair.
Rosalyn was busy with the Magic Tower.

‘Everybody other than me is busy.’

“Heh.”

Cale was even happier that he was the only one doing nothing.

“…But hmm…”

Cale was smiling brightly as he mumbled to himself while letting the soft bed take him.

“How do I finish this test?”

The situations until now where he was supposed to feel wrath…

Being chased away from work.

Eating ramen every meal.

Hearing the children complaining about side dishes.

Rolling around the bed.

Sleeping in.

None of these situations actually made him angry.

Forget wrath, he felt as if he was experiencing the future of his dreams.

‘I’ve experienced all of the angry moments I shared with the test voice including taking a nap.’

Cale wondered if this wrath test should end now.

Just one day.

He had rested for a day so it was time to go charging forward again.

“…But hmm…”

Cale looked outside the window again.

“…Something is a bit weird here.”

The smile on his face slowly disappeared.
Cale got off the bed, put on some slippers, and walked over to a window with a terrace.

His gaze was focused on the middle of a mountain that was visible from the territory.

Starting from the middle and all the way to the top…

He observed something on the mountain.

It gave him an unknown sense of discomfort.

He grabbed the window handle to take a closer look at the thing in the distance.
He wanted to go onto the terrace to get a better look.

At that moment…

“Human!”

Knock knock knock.
Bang!

He heard some light knocks on the door before Raon burst in while calling his name.
On, who had been the one to knock, walked in behind Hong and Raon.

Cale looked at the children averaging ten-years-old for a moment before looking out the window again and nonchalantly asking.

“Raon.”

“What is, human?”

“What is that black thing on the mountain?”

The mountain was quite visible from the Duchy.
It was far away but he could tell that it was one of the mountains where they mined marble.

From the center of that mountain to the top…
Up until the place where the marble was located…

“…That thing that looks like a picture of a snake.”

There was a long black line drawn vertically like a snake.

Cale did not remember something like this in the Henituse territory.

Boom.
Boom.
Boom.

Cale felt his heart beat oddly.

An instinctual sense of discomfort rose from within him.

‘What is going on?

This is the first time something like this has happened during the test.’

Cale could not figure out the answer.
However, Raon soon gave him the answer.

“Human, you don’t even know what that is?!”

Raon nonchalantly responded, as if he was baffled that Cale would ask such a thing.
Actually, he sounded excited as he responded.

“That was a lesson from the White Star-nim!”

‘…What? What-nim?’

Cale subconsciously clenched his ears.

‘Am I still half asleep? Who did Raon just call with a nim?’

Cale repeated the name back to Raon as if to ask about it.

“…White…
Star…nim?”

Hong nodded my head.

“That’s right, nya! The White Star-nim! The White Star-nim descended the black power on that mountain to help us have enlightenment!”

“We must listen to the White Star-nim! Otherwise, the marble will disappear from the Henituse territory! Human, that would be very bad!”

After an excited Raon made that comment, On calmly added on as well.

“The Whipper Kingdom's farmlands lost all of their values because they did not listen to the White Star-nim, nya.
It led to a third of the Whipper Kingdom's citizens dying of starvation.”

“That’s right, nya! That’s why Toonka listens to the White Star-nim very well now too! We must also listen very well!”

Hong nodded his head at his sister’s comment and excitedly added on what he knew.

“Human, you don’t even remember that? Or did you pretend not to know because you thought we wouldn’t know?”

Raon was looking at Cale as if he was weird.

“Ha, haha-”

Cale simply laughed.

‘Yes.
There was no way that this test would be easy.’

Cale realized it at that moment.

‘Ah.
I need to hurry up and get out and put an end to that motherfucking White Star.’

He realized something else as well.

‘…I'm a bit angry?’

Cale was slowly filling up with annoyance and anger.

“But, human.”

“What is it?”

Raon approached him with a look of excitement and anticipation as he cautiously asked.

“When are we going to go pray?”

“Hmm? Pray?”

‘No way, right……?’

“We need to go pray to the God of Despair-nim!”

‘Holy shit.’

Cale covered his face with both hands.

This was a future world where the White Star and sealed god worked hand in hand for their victory.

“…This is…
making me quite angry?”

The smile on Cale’s face started to warp.

* * *

“T, this can’t be!”

“General-nim?”

“…Please leave for a bit.”

“Yes sir! I understand!”

Click.

The office was silent now that the knight left.

“Fuck—!”

The man could not hold back his anger and crumpled the paper in his hand.

“This makes no sense!”

Huff.
Huff.
He was breathing heavily without being able to hold back his anger.
The man’s gaze headed toward the window.

The white hair and green eyes reflected off the window…
Clopeh Sekka’s face was red with rage while his eyes were on fire.

He observed the scene outside the window.
He could see the peaceful and beautiful capital of his homeland that was slightly desolate as with all nations up north.

“…The legend…
the legend……!”

He looked down.

He wanted to ignore it because he could not believe it, but everything here was a test he needed to overcome.

The document that was crumpled on the ground…

The headline on it…

< Urgent news: The trial date for the defeated Cale Henituse and his subordinates has been set! >

The green eyes that resembled a lush forest were burning as fierce as boiling lava and as dark as the deep night.

“How dare they turn the hero into a loser……?!”

Bang!

His two fists slammed down on the table.

He was boiling with rage the more he thought about it.

“So why am I?!”

Heroes suffer from time to time to reach legend status.

That could be being unfairly framed, being injured, or all sorts of things.

Great heroes rise from overcoming those trials and tribulations.

It was hard for Clopeh to understand such a thing but there were people who said things like that.

However, there was something that made him angrier than anything else.

“Why am I not one of his subordinates? Why am I not in prison? Why am I not being tried?”

Although his voice was calm the suppressed heat of rage sounded as if it could blow up at any moment.

* * *

“Ah, is it because I am so angry? I suddenly got goosebumps.”

Cale shook his shoulders a bit and sighed.

Currently, the people who had arrived at the final test were Cale and Clopeh.
Only the two of them were here.
