Trash Of The Count's Family BL | Part 1

🪶38 - Being Still (5)

"Ahem. Mm! Young master Neo, it has been a while."

Eric immediately moved in between Cale and Neo. Neo's eyes seemed to be defeated.

He thought he had found a good prey, but it was now difficult to hunt this prey with Eric Wheelsman present.

"Yes, young master Eric. I hope you have been well."

Neo greeted Eric that way before also greeting young lady Amiru and young master Gilbert. He then saw them all standing in front of Cale, and clicked his tongue.

'I guess they are protecting him. Even if he is trash, he is still on their side after all.'

Neo decided not to do anything after seeing the three of them protecting Cale. Eric noticed Neo's intent, and slowly turned around to look at Cale.

Neo's gaze turned to Cale as well.

"Mm."

Neo then subconsciously let out a groan.

Cale was quietly looking down at Neo with his arms crossed. Cale's eyes were extremely scornful. He had not said anything to Neo since earlier on, but his gaze and his body language said everything that needed to be said.

'Classless fool.'

It made Neo think about the gaze Venion used to look at him. Even though Neo was angry when Venion looked at him with such a gaze, he consoled himself by saying it was the look of a higher ranking noble and let it go.

Cale turned away after watching Neo's shaking pupils for a while, and looked behind him. He heard the Black Dragon's report in his ear.

There was a reason he brought the Black Dragon with him today.

– The voice recording magic is ready.

Cale had asked the Black Dragon to record everything that happened today. Video recording required a lot of mana usage and was difficult to maintain for a long period of time, so Cale had to be satisfied with just voice recording.

Cale was originally not going to do this because the palace would have a lot of mages who were sensitive to mana, but the Black Dragon assured him that it would be undetected as long as the range of the voice recording was small.

Cale made up his mind to use this in the future to make Neo cry tears of blood, before heading toward the palace entrance. Cale was the type of person to always pay back his debts.

Eric Wheelsman watched Cale walk away like a proud brother. He was thinking that the letters he sent every day must have worked.

On the other hand, Gilbert and Amiru watched Cale with curious expressions. Cale Henituse, the man who used to only wear flashy clothes, chose to wear a simple black outfit without any accessories. Even his red hair was clean and shining from the sun.

They wondered if it was because Cale was not drunk.

Each of Cale's steps looked relaxed and calm.

Amiru and Gilbert watched Cale turn around once he got to the palace entrance.

Cale's gaze, that seemed to be beckoning them over, was the most curious thing for them.

"Young master Neo, I will see you inside. Young lady Amiru and young master Gilbert, let us go."

Eric was watching Cale proudly, but Amiru and Gilbert had an even stranger sensation when the three of them stood in front of Cale.

Cale looked at the two confused people, as well as the proud Eric, and started to speak.
