Trash of the Count's Family (1-200)

Chapter 133 - Together (1)

Tap. Tap.

A small paw continued to tap on Cale's side.

"Human."
"What?"

Cale looked down toward his waist to see that Raon was smiling.

"I like this place. Good job. You deserve praise!"
"...Thanks."

Cale's expression was iffy after being praised by a 5-year-old. Eruhaben was the same way.

"Goldie, isn't our house better than yours which is covered in gold? Our house looks nice, but it is modest."
"...Sure."

The ancient Dragon just agreed. At that moment, Cale and Eruhaben made eye contact. Eruhaben let out a sigh and pointed toward a location.

"Looks like you'll need to investigate that stone pillar a bit."

Cale had explained the story behind the ominous stone pillar to the others. Each of them had shown a different reaction.

"......"

Cale decided to ignore Hilsman since Hilsman had been standing there with a blank expression since a while ago. Raon had approached Cale and cautiously started to speak.

"Let's just ignore it if it is fine for 100,000 years."

'...I feel like he's starting to resemble me more as he gets older.'

Cale looked like a proud parent while looking at Raon who had the same idea as he did. On the other hand, Eruhaben showed a different reaction.

"How interesting."
"Is that so?"
"Yes. I'm intrigued."

The Gold Dragon's eyes were full of curiosity. Cale looked at this and quickly added on.

"Eruhaben-nim, then why don't you investigate it a bit?"
"Me?"
"Yes. Wouldn't the great Eruhaben-nim be perfect to figure out the secrets of this pillar?"

Eruhaben scoffed at Cale's comment. It was obvious what Cale's intentions were.

"Trying to push it off on me?"
"But isn't it true that Eruhaben-nim is the wisest one among all of us?"
"What a useless question."

Cale was certain that he saw the corner of Eruhaben's lips twitching. This Dragon really liked being flattered.

"Well, since it is true that I am the wisest being, I will pretend to fall for your scheme."

In the end, Eruhaben agreed to investigate the stone pillar. However, it wasn't because of Cale's flattery. He really was curious about the aura coming from underneath the stone pillar.

'How odd.'

He could not tell the affinity of the aura coming from underneath the pillar. It was definitely worth investigating. It could be a chance for him to find the secret of one of the mysteries that has existed since ancient times.

Cale approached Eruhaben and chimed in.

"Then shouldn't you stay here in order to investigate?"

Raon was the first one to respond.

"Let's get our practical experience here!"

Eruhaben ignored Raon and stared at Cale. Cale had an awkward smile on his face. This ancient Dragon was the type to play along even if he knew your true intentions. The ancient Dragon smiled after seeing Cale's awkward smile and shook his head.

"Sure. You really are smart. You probably want to bring your subordinates over as well?"
"Wouldn't it be best for everyone to do the practical experience together?"
