Chapter 164
Cale ignored Eruhaben’s sigh and laid back down on the bed. It was nice to be warm during the winter, and being underneath the blanket to be warm was the best.

My worst fear is being really good friends with someone and we have a lot of the same interests but I don’t bring up Trash of the Counts Family because it’s such large novel and reading it all would be such a big time commitment but the whole time they’re actually just as big of a fan of tcf as me but they also don’t want to tell me about it because of the same reason so we both just suffer

Hi! I feel like I’ve seen you post a bit about lout of the count’s family. Would you recommend it, and if so where to get it?
must an isekai webnovel be 'good'? is it not enough to read the increasingly elaborate lore around a villain-coded man surrounded by his many adopted children saying "just as planned" and flinging money at all his problems, most of which are self-inflicted because he can't seem to stop hurting himself? i have a type, it's fine.
Tumblr media
the webnovel is over 800 chapters so far. there's slow burn and then there's waiting until chapter 269 or whatever to drop in a single word that has the potential to recontextualize the whole thing but then it just sits there unaddressed for another fifty chapters. it is maximum isekai. i've been reading fan translations on EAP because that's literally your only option unless you wanna struggle through google translate+ridibooks (why would you do this to yourself). every fan translation calls it Trash of the Count's Family but the official one used Lout and leaves off "the" for some reason.
the official webtoon adaptation is on tappytoon. it's also on some other webtoon platforms but the rest of them suck worse than tappytoon does. you could probably pirate but all the third-party sites i found with the comic for free were fan translations that i didn't like as much. anyway it's got more free pages than usual until the 20th so you can check it out and try some of the read-free-manga-internet-dot-online sites and see if they're comparable for you.
anyway i suggest sticking with the comic since that's what has the fanservice and also Any Editing Whatsoever. then you can probably decide from there if you want to know what happens badly enough to read A Comical Amount Of Isekai Webnovel.

Spoilers for Cales past and a ss of a few paragraphs of chapter 695
Cale hates when people sacrifice themselves. He hates when they push themselves too hard, especially for him.
Because that’s what happened with Lee Soo Hyuk and Choi Jung Soo, isn’t it?
Cale was supposed to die. They sacrificed themselves for him, and he lived, and now he gets visibly upset when people try to do things that are similar.
What does he think about when he sees people work themselves till they faint? It’s stupid. Not just because it’s not healthy, but because it’s sacrificial. He hates martyrs. He hates it when they’re his friends.
Cale has a weird complex, right? Sacrificing himself left and right, fainting, but not allowing anyone else to do the same? Hypocrite, right?
Tumblr media
(Chapter 695)
This is weird, isn’t it? This complete lack of awareness is concerning! It’s almost as if he’s oblivious to the fact that he does the same thing all of the time!
To everyone else, yes, this situation with the crown Prince fainting after using all of his mana is a perfect parallel to Cale using his ancient powers too much and going into a coma.
But Cale doesn’t see his actions in the same light! He really isn’t trying to sacrifice himself 90% of the time! The collateral damage (fainting, bleeding, pain) is usually not part of his prediction, and if it is, it’s more than he expected.
His intentions and thoughts are always about keeping his friends safe, and he’s okay with coughing up a bit of blood to do that! Just a bit, maybe enough that it will look scary but it won’t hurt him in the long run and that’s okay.
If he faints? It wasn’t planned, so it’s not really sacrifice. Maybe a little but he’s selfish enough already, it’s the least he can do, honestly.
When Cale puts himself in danger it’s for selfish reasons. Self-declared selfishness, but that’s how he sees it.
Cale doesn’t sacrifice himself. Everything he does is because he chose to! He chose to. If it doesn’t hurt too bad, he doesn’t consider it as doing much at all. The level of pain he experiences in every situation is his way of determining how much he’s ‘accomplished against his will’ (sacrificed).
Not only that but there are circumstances he must be in to even consider it of consequence to other people. If it doesn’t happen while someone’s in danger, it doesn’t really matter, does it? He doesn’t understand why someone would be asking about his well-being. He doesn’t plan to let anything that happens affect his plans, so there’s no reason for them to worry.
If he’s not on a battlefield, all of the effort he puts in?
(ancient powers) (strengthening his friends) (being in pain and pushing through it) (planning and strategizing) (so, so much more)
It doesn’t count. He is familiar with meticulously and extensively optimizing his time, because as KRS, monsters attack indiscriminately. Being prepared and working hard to be strong is nothing when compared to the battle soon to come, therefore, it doesn’t count as “work.” It’s what is expected. It is the basic standard for what is required to survive.
Where everyone sees Cale working nonstop for weeks and months and years, it’s a normal weekend for him. Those days outside of battle don’t count. He worked like that for 15 years, so much stress is easy for him.
But- why doesn’t he recognize that he pushes himself until he faints? There’s a threshold that he passes where he faints, but he still keeps crossing it?
Well, because he’s the protagonist and- often, our only source of information for what happens in this world- narratively, he tends to stay awake and only faints when the battle is coming to a close, or has just closed. If the battle ends, his presence isn’t of vital importance, so it’s fine if he was unconscious for a little bit. Other times it’s involuntary and a result of his body’s terrible condition or outside forces.
He doesn’t recognize his fainting as sacrificial because as long as the battle ends on a good note and he’s still able to think and plan relatively soon after he wakes up, he hasn’t sacrificed much other than time. He also has Vitality of the Heart, which lets him feel rejuvenated after a ‘nap.’
You see, Cale Henituse is interesting. He doesn’t know how to distinguish being selfish and selfless because being selfless is, in itself, an act of selfishness. When Cale (from the perspective of his friends) ruins his health and runs from battle to battle without resting or thinking about his friends concern— it’s pretty selfish of him.
While everyone else considers him selfless, he thinks of himself as doing the “obvious” amount of work and being selfish too. That much work is expected of him, so it isn’t selfless. It’s all for his own gain, because when everything is over, he’ll be the one going away to slack off in a forest. Ha!He’s seven steps ahead of everyone (and on the verge of collapse).
How trashy.
So to answer the question? Cale doesn’t notice his own sacrifices because he feels that:
1) his intentions remain solely selfish, so fainting and coughing up blood is just something he needs to do to get closer towards his goal.
2) anything that occurs outside of battle does not count as sacrifice because it does not affect how his plans will pan out, and everything he does is just a normal amount of work for him.
3) fainting is not on his list of to-dos, it happens without his consent- constantly- and it is very annoying because it’s an unpredictable variable, but thankfully it happens when the battle is almost over/already over so it’s not really fainting. It’s like taking a nap! Involuntarily, but at least it’s sort of convenient.
4) being overly selfless is selfish, and selfish = bad, so Cale is a Bad Person and Complete Trash. Look at Cale, selfishly wanting his friends and his homeland to be safe so that he can retire. Bastard!
So, turns out his inability to realize the irony of his statements is because of the traumatizing 16 years of mental conditioning where pushing himself over the edge is normal and expected, spurred on by his socially isolated past that led to a lack of empathy and emotional awareness, and his two closest friends sacrificing themselves for him after his ability couldn’t predict the situation accurately enough.
Wow, it was the trauma all along…

“Well, it’s not my problem.”
‘Hmm?’
“I’m getting very weak in my old age. It’s annoying to step in. Not my business whether they argue, fight, or kill each other.”- Chapter 123
Tasha: What happened Eruhaben-nim?
Eruhaben: Well it was mostly for the little kid
Eruhaben: But when I found out that they were killing dragons and carving out their hearts it became personal

so i had “loading...” mode more than usual today. i mean like, that situation totally got  a lot to reconsider. 
 imagine, your teacher asked you about your favourite novel and explain the story. its totcf. how do you explain a 700 chapter novel with a complicated storyline and a sacrificial mc? pov, youre that calm-innocent looking kid.
 obviously im trying to go with orv next. i cant possibly explain the whole reason why the mc is called “squid” by the readers and uh, sacrificial problems again.  oh wait Agatha Christie is famous! yeah i tried but well, death problems.  so i just go with totcf again, i just said stuff about the early chapters. i sadly blurted out that i found cale being a criminal is hilarious and entertaining. i covered it up by saying, that his way to deal with the war is just hilarious. and hes not really a criminal. i got off the hook.
