Precious [Trash of the Count Family x Child!OC]

*13*

-Third Person POV-
-Location: The Campsites-

Cale and Eve could see the boar, as well as Taylor on the wheelchair, and Cage pushed Taylor’s wheelchair behind him. Both of them approached the dead boar and stood next to the wheelchair as he started to speak.

“What is going on?”

As usual, the boar that the dragon delivered was enormous. It was larger than a tiger, the type of boar that would excite Beacrox quite a bit.

And, as usual, there was a drawing next to the boar. The dragon must have found it annoying to draw the fork, as only the knife was drawn this time.

“...Young master Cale. I’m sorry.”

What kind of utter nonsense was this?

Taylor had an apologetic smile on his face as he turned away from the boar.

“It seems like my movements have been detected.”

Movement? Cale could then hear the priestess Cage mumbling behind Taylor. She was angry.

“We left in secret, so how is it possible? There is someone who can avoid my detection? This is too much!”

‘How would someone at your level detect a dragon?’

Cale was done figuring out what was going on.

Something, or someone, that was able to catch such a large boar so easily and drop it off at their campsite without being detected by the priestess Cage or anyone else. That strength and stealthiness was something only an expert would have. Next to that feat of strength was a drawing of a knife.

It was a small knife to Cale and Eve, but they seemed to be seeing a very large knife. Cale looked back at Taylor, who was looking at him with both despair and sorriness.

“...Young master Cale. This incident - “

“Beacrox.”

Cale called out to Beacrox.

Marquis Stan’s second son, Venion, was probably extremely busy right now. Why would someone like that pay attention to the disabled eldest son? It wasn’t like Venion knew, ‘The Healing Star,’ was at the capital.

“Yes, young master?”

Beacrox, who was standing there with his kitchen knife prepared, responded with excitement on his face.

“Looks like we’ll be eating steak for breakfast.”

“Young Master, it looks like we will get the highest quality steak once again.”

Taylor, who was staring at Cale with a blank expression, suddenly started to speak.

“... Once again?”

Cale nodded his head and responded.

“We have someone in our party who delivers food for us.”

“...Who is it?”

Cale snorted before responding.

“He is surprisingly shy so you will not be able to see him.”

Cale and Eve saw the leaves on a tree not far from the campsite moving up and down and shook his head while Eve walked towards the tree. Cale shook his head made both Taylor and Cage turn red from embarrassment.

“Ahem, I, I see. It seems we had the wrong idea.”

“It’s not your fault. Beacrox is an excellent cook, so please have some steak before you go.”
