Trash of the Count's Family (401-600)

Chapter 428 - Trap (2)

"Hmph, you seem so sensitive for someone who has no regrets left for his old name."

Bear King Sayeru smirked at the White Star's gaze. The White Star stared at him before turning toward the ocean and nonchalantly making a comment.

"Sensitive? That's not the case at all."
"Then why are you threatening to kill me for saying your old name?"

Sayeru walked up and stood Next to the White Star with a relaxed smile on his face.
He also looked out toward the ocean before throwing the hook of a comment.

'Is it because his name is the same as yours?"

The White Star looked toward Sayeru again.

"I'm talking about Cale Henituse. He's oddly similar to you but the complete opposite. It is quite entertaining."

The twisted smile on the pale face looked full of mischief.
Sayeru's eyes were observing the White Star as he did that.

Darkness and light.

These two needed to work with the sky, however, Sayeru did not want a relationship where he had to become subservient and submit to the White Star.

"I saw it this time, even you-"

The twisted smile became even wider.

"Probably had a time when you were so emotional and willing to sacrifice yourself, right?"

198 years.

Sayeru had been with the White Star for three of the White Star's lives. The White Star looked toward Sayeru and spoke in a stoic voice.

"Sacrifice. That is a word that does not suit me."

It would be correct if Sayeru was talking about sacrificing others for his needs instead of sacrificing himself. The White Star did not say that later part. Why?

"You are the same as me."

Sayeru did not deny that claim. In fact, he smiled and nodded his head.

"Of course. I hate the Cale Henituse-type of people the most. Those bastards that act like heroes make me want to vomit."

Cough.

Sayeru covered his mouth as he let out a light cough. The handkerchief in his hand had blood on it. Sayeru coldly stared at it for a moment before starting to speak.

"When will you attack?"

The land of the Whale tribe.
When will they head there?

"It's been over three weeks since I came over from Mogoru."

The original plan was to meet up with mage Becrock to do reconnaissance and then striking the land of the Whale tribe right away. However, Becrock was captured by the enemies and the plan had to change.
That was why Sayeru sent Dorph to the Eastern continent and came here alone.

"...Something is weird."

The White Star commented as he looked toward the distant glacier with a suspicious gaze.
No, it wasn't that far if you really thought about it.

They were on a secluded corner of the coast that was not visible from the Northern Coast Guard Post with half of their troops on the shores and half on the ships.

"You're saying that the Whale tribe is acting weird?"
"Correct."

The White Star nodded his head at Sayeru's comment while Sayeru responded with an annoyed expression.

"You're basically saying that it is suspicious that the Whale tribe is letting the black mages spy on them. You think something might be up."
"Yes."
"You're the one who is being weird."
"...What do you mean?"
