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

*52*

-Third Person POV-
-Location: Ubarr Island-

[Will be rewritten later]

Amiru Ubarr, the investigation squad, and the knights appeared in the forest. Toonka was flying toward them.

Witira's eyes grew wide as she urgently shot out a strand of water with her left hand and Eve tried to use her string to pull him back. However, Toonka was moving too fast.

“Everybody, open up your shields!”

Amiru determined that it would be impossible to dodge, and immediately ordered the knights to defend. The knights quickly opened up their shields. Toonka saw what they were doing and shouted toward them.

“Defend properly! My body is very strong, so you may get hurt! Muhahahaha!”

Eve only sighs as she produces more string in an attempt to stop the mad man.

It seemed probable that the knights would get hurt from this collision because they were wearing leather armour. The mixed-blood Whale Beast person Paseton was watching all of this when he heard a sigh coming from behind him.

“Sigh, so annoying.”

The voice seemed to be both annoyed and calm at the same time. Paseton’s eyes opened wide as he turned toward the voice.

Boom!

Toonka crashed into the shields. However, Toonka did not crash into anybody and nobody got hurt. Toonka turned around to see that a holy-looking silver shield had made contact with his back. There were also song wings that gently surrounded him. Eve immediately ran to Cale's side she held onto him.

“...What the...”

The shield slowly turned transparent before disappearing. Witira’s strand of water that was coming to create a shield disappeared into the air. She turned around in shock.

The disappearing silver shield was connected to that man who had his head down as he let out another sigh.

“Sigh.”

Cale looked calm as he brushed back his drenched hair. However, he was frowning with frustration.

Instead of a shrimp getting hurt in a fight between whales, the shrimp had to use its powers during the fight.

Cale felt all the gazes focus on him, and slowly got up.

He was cheering Witira on after watching her send Toonka flying, but he urgently let out his shield because he did not want the knights to get hurt.

Because of that, the inside of the shield was created toward Cale instead of the knights. Thankfully, the knights did not get hurt, but he had just ended up unintentionally saving Toonka.

Cale seemed calm as he stood up, but his legs were numb from crouching for too long.

“Ah.”

Cale frowned as he stood up. He stumbled because his left leg was numb. Eve uses her string to hold him up while glaring at Toonka.

“Young master Cale!”

Amiru rushed over with a shocked expression. Paseton, who was also shocked, grabbed onto Cale’s arm which was supported by Eve's string. However, Cale pushed Paseton away and stood up straight. Amiru had an urgent expression as she rushed over to Cale.
