Trash of the Count's Family

<Lunacy, Worship. And the Way (1)>

Kendall, the God of Victory. He saw Cale smiling and smiled back.

‘I heard from Zenyu.’

Zenyu, the first generation Dragon half-blood captain of the Holy Empire’s First Knights Brigade.

Zenyu said that he had to kneel because of the force that Cale Henituse released.

‘I don't know how a human can release force, but-’

Zenyu had clearly said the following.

‘I tried to cut off Cale Henituse’s head. However, everything was ruined because that Dragon named Rasheel showed up.’

‘Are you saying that you were able to overcome the red-haired man’s aura?’

‘Yes, Kendall-nim. However, I was only able to resist against his force when I used my fighting attribute.’

Zenyu then cautiously asked.

‘He should be human, right?’

“Pfft.”

Kendall chuckled before a cold expression appeared on his face.

The red-haired man in front of him…

He’s the boss of this Black Castle-’

First of all, this guy was not a Dragon.

Kendall believed this man was human.

But his instincts were telling him something.

‘You- have a lot of different auras of nature on you.”

He could feel the overflowing aura of nature filling this man’s extremely thin plate.

That must be how he could handle this portion of Kendall's Dragon Fear.

“Ugh.”

“Groan-”

The weaker of the Dragon half-bloods groaned, but Kendall didn’t care.

He was embarrassed that he lost to Rasheel and was feeling enraged.

However, he could accept that because that bastard was a Dragon.

‘They dare!’

However, the reality he faced when he regained consciousness was far different from what he had imagined.

He woke up in a training ground that resembled a prison and was able to realize the issues after hearing the reports of the subjugation squad idiots.

‘A human dares to treat a Dragon like this?’

Zenyu said that there were other Dragons beside Rasheel as well and that they all listened to this Cale Henituse.

He looked toward Cale as he spoke.

“How annoying.”

The dark brown eyes looking back at him…

He wanted to get rid of those things.

Oooooo– oooooo–

The rumbling got bigger.

Kendall released his Dragon Fear at full power.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

A portion of the Dragon half-bloods coughed up blood.

Some of the bound ones fell to the ground with their faces buried as they shook.

This power that dominated this entire area was ruthlessly putting pressure on them.

It was to the point that they could not even breathe properly.

‘So annoying!’

Kendall did not let it show, but his anger was at its peak.

The first defeat of his life…

And this unbelievable sight where logic seemed to be destroyed…

Finally, a situation where he had to lower his head to a human?

Kendall could not believe any of this.

His instincts made him reject it.

That instinct also made him release his fierce aura to counter this intense instinctual rejection.

“Ugh.”

Even Zenyu, who was the most familiar with facing Dragon Fear, let out a short groan.

He barely raised his head to look at Kendall.

Although Kendall had a sneer-like smile on his face and looked calm…

He’s extremely angry.’

His Dragon Fear was merciless.

“Ugh.”

He felt as if he could not breathe.

His whole body filled with cold sweat.

The inside of his mouth dried out.

‘Yes, this is it.’

This was the greatness of a Dragon.

Zenyu realized something else as well.

‘The Dragon Fear I have faced until now was not real Dragon Fear.’

The Dragon Fear he had experienced until now was something that the Dragon Fear never used at full strength.

Bur right now, from Kendall…

He could feel clear hostility and murderous intent to kill anyone and anything in this area.

He could tell that this was Kendall’s belief on what were the obvious rules of the world.

That strong will dominated through this area.

‘Ah.’

Zenyu realized the fundamental difference between his Force and Dragon Fear.

‘Force is like a form of will for me.’

It was also a desire.

A desire to do something in this area, to suppress the enemy. Such emotions and thoughts formed that power.

However, Dragon Fear used by true Dragons was different.

‘It is an instinct and a way of life.’

Unlike Zenyu’s Force which needed him to have that will to achieve something, the Dragon Fear extended out something that was so obvious that no words or thoughts were needed.

Kendall was not using Dragon Fear with the desire to suppress every other existence in this area-

‘For him, suppressing everyone else in this area is an unquestionable fact.

Ho.’

Zenyu realized that he had no choice but to be suppressed.

Furthermore, it seemed only normal that his body was shaking more and his breathing was getting harder.

A sense of helplessness dominated his body.

As expected, human blood could not defeat Dragons.

‘…What is this?’

Zenyu realized the emotion he was feeling and felt that it was odd.

‘Why am I feeling like something is being forced away from me?

I am an existence with Dragon blood.

I am a great and mighty Dragon half-blood!

That is why I am different from regular people.

So shouldn’t I be praising Kendall's greatness instead of feeling like this?

Zenyu could not understand why he was feeling like something was taken from him, why he felt so despondent.

It was at that moment.

“Ugh.”

“Oo-”

Through the groans…

“Why, for what reason-”

Nine, the trashiest of the Knights Brigade members…

That third generation Dragon half-blood punk groaned in pain as he mumbled.

Zenyu subconsciously looked at Nine before seeing that Nine was looking at something and turning in the same direction.

He first saw Kendall.

Kendall was not smiling.

Then the spot Zenyu’s gaze last landed…

Was at Cale Henituse, who was still smiling.

Zenyu finally realized something.

Cale Henituse and his people…

None of them were kneeling and they didn’t even have a drop of sweat on their foreheads.

Only they seemed to be in a different world.

“…….”

As Zenyu stared in disbelief…

“Mm.”

Cale spoke in a calm voice.

“There is no need to even scare those without the qualifications?”

That was what Kendall had said.

‘Humans are not qualified to speak to me. There is no need to even scare those without the qualifications. You wouldn't be able to look at me anyway.’

Screeeech.

Cale got up from his chair.

Kendall bit down on his lips as he watched.

‘How is this possible?’

How were Cale Henituse and his subordinates able to remain so calm?

Kendall's instincts were telling him that his Dragon Fear was going everywhere except to where these people were standing.

‘Why?

This area should be dominated by me right now.

I am the only Dragon in this area.

Isn't this a world ruled by Dragons?’

Tap. Tap.

Cale slowly walked toward Kendall.

Kendall could feel it.

The area dominated by his Dragon Fear was creating a path for Cale Henituse with his every step.

!’

Furthermore, he felt a gentle aura around that guy as well.

It was not Dragon Fear.

‘That’s not Force either!’

The aura was taking a form he had never seen before.

The aura that was so faint and gentle that he had not noticed it until now easily pushed aside Kendall's Dragon Fear.

Tap.

Cale stopped walking.

He was already right in front of the bound Kendall.

He heard the imposing voice of the Dominating Aura in his mind.

– Only this much Dragon Fear?! Cale, this is so lacking compared to Eruhaben’s.

Cale quietly looked down at Kendall.

– We are strong enough to even make gods kneel! Well, it may be a bit difficult with the God of Balance… But anyway! The fact of the matter is that our presence is that strong.

“Pfft.”

Cale chuckled.

However, his eyes were not smiling.

He observed Kendall with a stoic gaze.

He looked to be in a state of chaos, just like a person who had lost all common sense.

Cale opened his mouth while looking at him.

“You said there is no need to even scare those without the qualifications?”

He lowered his body.

He got down to Kendall's eye level.

He looked directly at Kendall and smiled.

“Then I guess there’s no need to scare someone like you who is already scared? Hmm?”

‘What?’

Kendall was about to retort.

‘I'm scared?’

However, he had no capacity to say that out loud as he couldn't even think properly.

Shaaaaaaaaaa-

There was no breeze.

However, Kendall could still feel something wrapping around his body.

His Dragon Fear was starting to disappear.

No, it was being consumed.

‘No.’

Curl up your body.

Lower your head.

Shhhhh.

Kendall's body was shaking.

He couldn’t even notice that.

Furthermore, he could not look away from Cale.

Because-

‘I can’t-’

He couldn’t do that motion.

Avoid him.

Lower my head.

Curl up.

Kendall felt as if he could not even do the actions that would make him look submissive to his enemy.

Why? Because he was not allowed to do so.

This human in front of him, this Cale Henituse, had not allowed him to do that.

That was why Kendall couldn't do it.

His whole mind turned white.

His body was shaking.

He suddenly recalled someone’s warning.

‘You’ve never faced a god, have you? We are still lacking. You're going to get seriously hurt if you mess around like that.’

Cisco, the God of Fighting. She had said that to him.

‘Then have you seen a god?’

She had responded to Kendall’s question.

‘No. I’ve come into contact with one, but I could not look at them.’

She calmly explained.

‘The god didn’t permit me to do so.’

Why?NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

Why was Kendall suddenly thinking about those comments?

He wanted to ask the human in front of him.

‘Is he a god?’

He wanted to ask if this guy was a god.

However, he could not do that.

He felt as if he should not open his mouth.

– Cale, should we use a bit more?

Cale was currently using just a bit more of his Dominating Aura than he had used against the Blood Demon.

All of it was focused on Kendall.

“Huff. Huff.”

“Huuuuuu.”

The Dragon half-bloods were breathing again.

They had gotten out of Kendall's pressure.

Furthermore, Cale and Kendall… Their instincts were allowing them to feel something big that was between Cale and Kendall right now. It was hard to tell what it was, but just looking at it was giving them the chills.

Some of them subconsciously looked away. It was scary to even watch.

– Cale, should we use a bit more?

– This guy is a Dragon so he’s managing to hold on without fainting.

Cale slightly nodded his head after hearing the Dominating Aura tell him that his aura alone might be enough to knock Kendall unconscious.

Oooooo– oooooo–

Kendall's body shook even more intensely.

It was so much that his teeth were chattering.

However, he maintained his eye contact with Cale and could not do anything to avoid him or hide.

‘—-’

His mind turned white.

He had no thoughts at all.

His white mind slowly turned black.

He couldn't even recognize that he would soon lose consciousness.

It was at that moment.

“Hoohoo.”

He heard someone laughing.

‘Hmm?’

Cale hesitated after hearing the familiar yet leery voice and turned his head around.

He saw a scowl on Choi Han’s face and a look of disbelief on Beacrox's face.

“Ah, I'm sorry, Cale-nim. That was not on purpose.”

Clopeh Sekka was standing there with a gentle look on his face.

Shhhhhhh-

His sword was pulled out and had white aura around it.

Clopeh received Cale’s gaze that seemed to be asking what he was doing and opened his mouth.

“I am able to use my aura within your embrace, Cale-nim.”

‘Ah.’

Cale wanted to know whether his people could freely use aura and mana within his Dominating Aura.

That was why he had told them that they were allowed to freely test it out.

Clopeh had not forgotten those words and had done so.

‘The experiment is a success.’

Cale nodded his head while looking at Clopeh Sekka's white aura but felt something was off.

‘Why am I feeling this way? It’s not like this punk said or did anything wrong.’

Clopeh quietly mumbled at that moment.

"As expected, I needed to hide within the light.”

“What?”

‘What did this bastard just say?’

“It’s nothing, Cale-nim. I just happened to see a way that is different from faith. As expected, all of these paths led to the right way.”

“…….”

Cale decided to stop paying any attention to what this crazy bastard was saying.

“Huuuuuu.”

Cale let out a light sigh before withdrawing his Dominating Aura.

“Huuuff.”

Cale took a deep breath.

Cale patted his shoulder.

“Hey.”

Kendall flinched.

Cale didn’t care as he calmly continued.

“Cut the bluffing out. Just answer the questions I ask you. Do you understand?”

His gaze headed toward the Dragon half-bloods as well.

“You guys be more cooperative as well.”

Cale looked at the Dragon half-bloods and Kendall, all who were avoiding his gaze, and chuckled before he mumbled.

“Qualifications my ass. There’s no such thing.”

He then made eye contact with Knight Captain Zenyu, who was still staring at him.

Zenyu quickly avoided his gaze.

‘What is going on?’

He felt a weird emotion again.

Cale Henituse. This guy created strong fluctuations in his mind.

Cale looked at the headshaking Zenyu as if he was weird before starting to speak again.

“First of all, what is the Holy Water?”

He looked back at Kendall and asked.

It was at that moment.

Screeech- Bang!

Someone slammed the door open.

A chubby Black Dragon entered with an imposing presence.

“Meeeeeow.”

“Meeow.”

Behind him were On and Hong.

And…

Shhhhhhh-

The baby white snake was on Hong’s back.

“Human!”

Raon then shouted to Cale.

“Goldie gramps contacted Dodori’s mom! He said that the second subjugation squad will be here soon!”

The second subjugation squad.

They were the forces from the Holy Empire who were set to follow Kendall. Other members of the First Knights Brigade and some inquisitors would be with them.

‘We believe the inquisitors to be Elves, right?’

Cale thought about the people who were already outside the village, waiting to greet the enemies.

Rosalyn and the mages…

As well as the Dark Elves and Elves led by Tasha.

“I should go as well.”

His allies would be able to fight easier if he used his Dominating Aura. This was just confirmed by Clopeh.

Cale thought about that white aura from earlier and subconsciously looked toward Clopeh. The two of them made eye contact.

!’

Cale subconsciously flinched. Clopeh smiled brightly and responded.

“I guess I will go too then, Cale-nim.”

“…Well, yes?”

He was already planning on taking Clopeh and Choi Han with him.

There were plenty of people, such as Sui Khan and Choi Jung Soo, etc, to protect the Black Castle.

Smile.

Clopeh smiled brightly as if to show his pure joy.

Cale oddly felt uncomfortable.

“Haaaaa, haaaaa.”

Kendall, who was breathing heavily while watching them, noticed his mind starting to move fiercely again as soon as he stabilized a bit.

‘Hmph. It won't be easy!’

He realized that they were moving without the Dragons and sneered inside.

The group that was coming right now could not be held to the level of the first subjugation squad with these shabby Dragon half-bloods.

‘The inquisitors are different!’

Inquisitors, the Elves. Those bastards were as capricious as they were strong.

And they would try to get to Kendall no matter what it took.

Crazed worship and belief… That alone would be enough for the inquisitors to severely harm these bastards.

That lunacy even made Kendall avoid them at times. It was almost an obsession. They looked ready to give their lives as needed.

‘It won’t be easy!’

Kendall had that thought but still could not look at Cale.

He did not realize that his body was still shaking.

He didn't even realize that Cale and Zenyu were staring at him.

Scared people always had narrow tunnel vision.
