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

*44*

-Third Person POV-
-Location: The Capital Henituse Residence-

Cale, who had finished preparing to leave early the next morning after returning to his residence, handed the Black Dragon a piece of steak along with three other items. The Black Dragon clutched the plate with the steak on it, as he asked. Cale had listened to what Eve was doing with the crown prince the whole night yesterday. She seemed to enjoy doing paperwork despite only doing the easy because Alberu doesn't want to give her the hard one.

“What is this for?”

The three items were all the magic bombs with the detonation devices removed. Eve looked at it and used her string to look at it closely. The compressed mana still existed in these bombs. For now, Cale was planning on using just one of these three bombs. A mischievous smirk appeared on Cale’s face.

“Destroy a whirlpool.”

Eve looks at Cale with her mouth agape as she wonders why he wants to destroy a whirlpool.
Cale however was planning on overturning Roan Kingdom’s Northeastern sea without anybody knowing about it. It was possible because neither the mermaids nor the Whale Tribe should be at the Northeastern sea right now.

Originally, Cale did not plan to destroy the whirlpool. He was planning on taking care of it using the Indestructible Shield and the Vitality of the Heart.

‘But that was when I didn’t have the Black Dragon.’

There was no reason for him to work hard when he had the Black Dragon. Eve could also maybe help him but he planned on asking Beacrox to teach her how to use a sword more since Choi Han isn't there.

Cale stuffed the Black Dragon, On, and Hong with a ton of food before sending out these Beasts that averaged 7 years of age and greeting his first guest. Eve had stayed in the room, asleep.

“I do not know what you stole, but you did something big.”

It was Billos.

“I guess I am a bit famous these days.”

Billos shook his head at Cale, who did not seem to be injured at all. He could see Cale starting to drink while claiming to still be injured. Cale had told Eve to wait outside and watch. He doesn't want to set a bad example by drinking in front of her even though he already did.

“You indeed are famous, young master Cale. But is it okay for you to drink?”

“There’s no reason for me to lie in front of you.”

Billos smiled as he filled Cale’s empty cup. He then handed a magic box over to Cale.

“Here are your requested items. Thank you for returning the items from last time.”

Cale had returned the other items to Billos through Choi Han. Cale caressed this new box of items as he looked toward Billos. There's also the new sword and dagger he bought for Eve just in case.

Cale had already decided how to use the first of the two opportunities to use the golden plaque.

He decided to buy some time.

Cale decided to buy some time for the moment when the Northern Knights, a dangerous existence for not just Roan Kingdom but also the Breck Kingdom and the other mid-northern kingdoms, started to head south.

To be more specific, other than the Northern Knights, there was also the Empire at the centre of the Western Continent, the mage slayer, and the Queen of the Southern Jungle. Cale decided to buy some time to get away from all of them. It would be one thing if he was on his own, but now there were others he needed to care for. He might also buy more new dresses for Eve while he's still here.
