Trash of the Count’s Family

grey and cloudy as if the spring rain would soon come.
It was a day when the freshness of spring was not visible at all.

People were mumbling about how the weather was fitting for a day with a vicious incident.

Through the grey sky and the similarly drab colors of the city…

A red fog was rising up.

No, it was heading toward the Archduke's Estate.

“…That’s mana, right?”

“…Yeah……”Read first at ” l i g h t no v el r e a d e r .
or g”

It looked like a fire burning up.

Not only was Rosalyn's red mana wrapped around her body, she was releasing it all around her as she leisurely headed toward the Archduke’s Estate.

She then looked around with a smile on her face.

‘There are quite a lot of hidden spectators.’

She peeked at her wrist.
There was a bracelet on it.

‘Take it.’

‘Royal Father, doesn’t this belong to the Royal Mage?’

‘He said for you to have it.’

It was a bracelet made of middle-grade magic stones.

‘Rosalyn.’

‘Yes, Royal Father?’

‘If you’re going to go down that path anyway, it is okay if you do not become the best.
I just hope you grow enough to achieve your dreams.’

‘But Rosalyn, your health must be your top priority.
Do you understand?’

‘Thank you very much, Royal Father.
Royal Mother.’

Rosalyn’s mother was touching Rosalyn’s clothes and asked a question.

‘By the way, do you have a place to stay?’

‘Yes, Royal Mother.
I do.’

She spoke to the concerned Queen and King.

‘I have great friends.
I have a lot to learn from them in many ways.’

Of course, she also had non-human friends, such as the Dragon who was her friend in magic.

Rosalyn thought about her parents who had finally smiled in relief after hearing that comment before stopping in front of the gates of the Archduke's Estate.

Clack.

The Knights Brigade split down the middle and a person appeared.

It was a man who seemed to be similar in age to the king.

It was the Archduke.

“Your magic abilities are much greater than I imagined.
You are quite the skilled mage.”

Rosalyn lightly responded back.

“That’s why I didn't die.”Read first at ” l i g h t no v el r ea d e r .
o r g”

“Pffft.” The Archduke chuckled but the mood of the Knights Brigade behind him sank even lower.

Rosalyn looked at the Knights Brigade, the soldiers, and the Estate before commenting.

“It looks like you have no plans on sealing your doors.”

The Archduke shook his head.

“Seal our doors for five hundred years? Isn’t that basically telling us to be destroyed?”

“I won’t deny that.”

“However.”

One corner of the Archduke's lips curled up.

“What are you planning on doing with just three people? Will the Royal Knights Brigade be here soon?”

“The Royal Knights Brigade has things to do.”

Rosalyn and the Archduke's conversation was not heavy and continued peacefully.
However, the Knights Brigade still had their hands on their scabbards and Rosalyn released even more red mana than before and did not decrease it.

“I wonder what the Royal Knights Brigade has to do.”

“I'm pretty sure you have an idea?”

“Who knows?”

The Royal Knights Brigade was probably moving to find the nobles who plotted with the Archduke, find the Archduke's hidden troops, or take them down after having found them.

“Then princess, you plan on destroying my family with just the three of you?”

Rosalyn put on a smile instead of responding.

The Archduke smiled as well.

“How arrogant.
No matter how skilled you are as a mage, my troops are not chumps who were gathered overnight.
It looks like you made some friends while moving alone in a foreign kingdom, but playing house is very different from the realities of battle.”

“…My goodness.”

‘My goodness, he talks so much.’Read first at ” l ig h t no v el r e a d e r .
o r g”

Rosalyn simply raised a hand instead of saying the rest of that sentence.

As the Knights Brigade flinched and tensed up thinking that she was about to cast a spell…

Choi Han walked up next to Rosalyn.

Clang.

He pulled out his sword.

Black aura appeared at the tip of his sword.

“…
Sword master!”

The Archduke frowned once someone was unable to hold back and shouted.

The Knights’ faces stiffened.

“Mm.”

Lock hesitated a bit before slowly moving to Rosalyn’s other side.

Rosalyn stretched her hand toward the sky at that moment.
Red mana shot out of her fingertips and headed toward the ash-like sky.

It looked as if a small sun was rising.

However, it was not the sun.

Shaaaaaaaaaa-

A breeze blew by them.

The red mana gathered together and Rosalyn smiled.

The Archduke retreated back while motioning to the Knights Brigade.

“Get them!”

The Knights Brigade started moving.

Rosalyn looked at the red mana floating in the sky for a moment.

My country.

My kingdom. Read first at ” l i g h t no v el r e a d e r .
o r g”

Princess Rosalyn would withdraw from this land starting today.

‘Royal Father.
Here’s the thing…’

She recalled what the king had said to her.

He said that he wanted her to grow enough to achieve her dreams.

But her dreams were quite vast.

‘I want to become the greatest mage.’

She wanted to be a mage who was not lacking even when up against a Dragon.

Although Princess Rosalyn of the Breck Kingdom would disappear starting today, Rosalyn, the mage from the Breck Kingdom was just getting started.

“Rosalyn.”

“Noona.”

Choi Han and Lock.
Her friends were calling her.

Rosalyn thought about how she was simply mage Rosalyn to them and opened her mouth.

“Let’s go.”

The red mana shot forward toward the Archduke's Estate, a power that was beyond human limits destroyed the Archduke's Estate and a black aura swept through the Archduke's Estate.

At the end, the Archduke’s family was no longer a noble family and the people who followed the Archduke and delivered information about the Breck Kingdom to them either silently lost their positions or titles.

“Let’s go back.
Lock, you come too.”

“Okay, hyung.”

“…Yes, let’s go back.”

Rosalyn then left the Breck Kingdom for her new home.

However, she would return to the Breck Kingdom in a little bit.

She would come back to help the Breck Kingdom from the war that would spread throughout the Western continent.

Of course, she was a mage when she returned to her hometown for the first time in a while.
It would be just like the dream she had in the corner of her heart since she was a young girl.
