Reincarnated in trash of the count family

Chapter 7 "Meeting for the first time and reunited"

"Follow me."

Choi Han should know of Cale's status by now. He continued to limp as he approached Cale. Cale looked calm and turned back as soon as he saw that Choi Han was behind him and entered through the gate.

But his heart was going crazy.

'I'm sure he's thinking about taking me as a hostage if something dangerous happens. That is probably why he stood right behind me.'

He was sure that Choi Han would not kill him. However, just thinking about being taken as a hostage caused serious mental strain, and Cale frowned as he looked at the two knights who were following them.

'Don't follow me.'

The knights flinched at Cale's clear order. They looked back and forth between Cale and Choi Han before one of the knights approached Choi Han and Cale with a stiff expression on his face.

The knights cared about their creed more than anything else. It was fitting of the knights that Deruth treasured.

'Well, I guess they have to act like this to be good knights.'

Cale was satisfied with the knight's response to this beggar-like foreigner and left the knight alone to follow them. He just led Choi Han to the entrance of the Count's residence.

"Young master, you're back."

"...Yes, Ron."

This scary old man. He had been waiting for Cale outside the door. Cale didn't expect him to really be waiting. Cale was scared but thought that it was actually for the better.

Ron's gaze turned toward Choi Han, and his benign smile suddenly stiffened.

'Ron should be at a level where he can estimate Choi Han's strength.'

Choi Han also stared back at Ron. Cale didn't care what kind of attacks they were sending each other through their eyes and did what he needed to do. He was not done just yet.

"Follow me."

Cale called out to Choi Han once more and started to walk. The servant, Ron, quickly followed Cale.

"Young master, what is going on? I will take care of this guest if you tell me what is needed."

"No need."

Someone else approached Cale as Ron was speaking.

"Young master. You returned after drinking today."

It was the deputy butler Hans. "Ah, he was responsible for me."

Cale clicked his tongue and ignored Hans's statement. Instead, he lifted the alcohol bottle and pointed toward Hans. It was at that moment.

"Aaack!"

Hans covered his face with both of his arms as he curled up. Silence filled the air.

"Tsk."

Cale clicked his tongue and Hans looked up with a face completely red from embarrassment as he looked back at Cale.

"Put this away."

"Yes."

Hans received the alcohol bottle from Cale with a blank expression on his face.

"I will actually throw it at you next time."

Hans turned pale at Cale's words. Cale did not seem to care at all as he continued to walk. With the inclusion of Hans, there were now a total of four people following him.

Cale peeked every so often to make sure they were following him properly and arrived at his destination.

"Kitchen #2." Cale pushed the door open as soon as he saw the sign.
