Reincarnated in trash of the count family

The reason the Vice Captain's face was completely pale was not because of the strength of the bandits. Choi Han approached next to the Vice Captain and added on.

"It was a light battle. Not even enough for a warm-up."

Cale could see the Vice Captain slightly flinch after hearing Choi Han's words. He could also see Choi Han smirking while looking at the Vice Captain flinch.

"He really isn't the type to let people do as they please with him."

There was no way that someone like Choi Han, who had no issues beating up the Count's son, would be nice and let people just continue to mess with him.

"Do you have no appetite?"

Cale seemed to be frustrated, as Ron approached him with his usual benign smile. He looked back and forth between the rabbit soup and Ron, before suddenly realizing something. This old man enjoyed making fun of him.

"Yes. None at all."

Choi Han responded to that statement.

"Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, nothing like that."

'I would have no issues if you caught anything other than rabbits.'

Cale looked toward Choi Han and waved his hand to tell Choi Han to not mind him. However, Choi Han continued to look toward Cale with a serious gaze.

"What are you looking at?"
"...Was that your first time experiencing a battle?"

Cale just casually responded back to Choi Han who asked with a serious expression.

"What battle? You mean with the bandits earlier?"
"Yes."
"Of course. I've never seen so many bandits before."
"I see."

Choi Han nodded his head and quietly mumbled to himself.

"...Must have been your first time facing potential death."

Ha. One of the soldiers let out a gasp. Ha! Cale let out a loud gasp as if he was completely shocked.

'First time facing potential death my ass. Do you know how nervous I've been the last few days because of you?'

That wasn't even it. Ron's smile as Choi Han brought back the rabbits, the sight of Beacrox sharpening his cooking knife, Cale was also nervous because of them. Cale started to think about all of the nervous moments he has had since they left the Henituse territory.

"Now I really have no appetite."

He had lost all of his appetite. Clang. The spoon in Cale's hand just fell onto the soup bowl. That was why he didn't realize that the soldiers were looking at him with an understanding gaze, or that Choi Han had stopped paying attention to everyone around him as he nostalgically thought about the past.

"Cale-nim."
"What?"

Cale was thinking about how he didn't need to be so nervous anymore because he managed to avoid getting beaten up and also got the Indestructible Shield, when Choi Han's voice snapped him back to reality.

'Why does he keep talking to me?'

"The first time is always difficult to handle."
"What are you talking about?"

As Cale stoically asked back, Choi Han had a slight smile on his face before he asked in a stoic expression. The gaze in his eyes was extremely serious.

"Cale-nim, do you not study any martial arts?"
"No need."

"Shouldn't you at least have the strength to protect yourself?"
