Olienne is a character we all know but only because he was important to one of the protagonists.
Although their relationship is not delved into, the mere fact that Eruhaben was detained and had a time of mourning after discovering his death says it all (ಡ‸ಡ)
For a dragon that has lived 1000 years he should be used to death, but Olienne was different.
I like the idea that the two of them were close friends, not enough for it to be a Queerplatonic relationship but enough for them to leave traces on each other (*^^*)♡
(In fact, that's because I saw an interpretation like that in a fanfic and I loved it! Him being an otaku is an idea I had never seen before and I loved it.)
We don't know much about him in canon, but what we do know is that he was cheeky, he liked sculptures (he probably made them himself) and long baths, it took him fifteen years to be born and his attribute is wood, and it can be assumed that He was good at creating barriers.
I feel like he could have been used in a better way, his character is incredible and needs more depth but he could have complemented the family very well °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
Perhaps over time he and Eruhaben could have improved their relationship, becoming a romantic or queerplatonic couple who would adopt Cale and Rosalyn as his children (o´∀`o)
Why Rosalyn? Because I feel that if Olienne is as shameless as Eruhaben says, seeing that he took Rosa as her apprentice, he could contribute and over time they would develop a fairly healthy father-daughter relationship ♡\( ̄▽ ̄)/♡
Besides, during the battle of the jungle vs the empire he could have helped Cale make the trees collect the dead mana or even shoot down the airship.
And without mentioning Apitoyu, I haven't read beyond chapter 1042 at the time of writing this post but Olienne's participation in the war against the purple blood dragons and the church of the holy empire already has me salivating with anticipation ☆o(><;)○
I feel that if this were to happen, the Henituse family would realize that Cale doesn’t think of himself as part of the family. I believe that even in canon, he had trouble accepting the Henituse family as his own, at least initially (which might be contradicted by Cale’s thoughts during his first encounter with Venion, but let a girl dream (ᵔ.ᵔ)).
The Henituse family could have quite interesting reactions if Hans ever informed them about the diary.
Lily might feel guilty and sad, somehow implying that her Oraboni is not part of the family, and she would try to change her way of thinking by spending more time with him.
Basen might feel guilty, thinking he’s replacing his Hyung-Nim, even though we know it’s not true. He would try to convince Cale to accept the heir position and distance himself, possibly no longer “bothering” him.
Violan, similarly, would feel guilty, being seen as a replacement for Jour. Instead of continuing to distance herself to allow him peaceful mourning time, she would try to spend more time with him to improve their relationship.
And Deruth would feel terrible; from Cale’s perspective, it might seem like he’s replacing Jour and Cale with Violan and Basen. Deruth’s distancing and problem-solving approach didn’t help either. In a brave moment, he would probably try to go to Cale and apologize for everything.
One of the things that has also been in my head for a while is Cale having a journal.
Like- Cale starts a journal when he realizes that he's going to be a lot more involved in the novel's events than intended so to make room for new records he writes things down
When it's songs that he liked as Krs, he'd scrapbook a background and write them down
He'd also add artwork on some pages and has art of people. Like Choi han training, Ron with the lemonaid, Alberu doing whatever- he'd do a bunch of profiles for each person or maybe just have a separate book for that all together-
Cale doesn't really let others see either book, just changing the topic when it comes up. Everyone eventually learns not to ask.
Would be very interesting if there was a connection with Og!Cale and Krs where krs!Cale began to dream about some of og!Cale's memories
After a particularly bad memory, Cale is more closed off towards Deruth and Deruth doesn't know what he did wrong.
Cale obviously puts something about this in his journal
In honor of og!cale, he makes a drawing of his mother and him and doesn't use the 'Henituse' last name, he uses 'Thames'
The thing that Cale has learned about the original Cale is that he's never really felt like he belonged with Violian and Deruth. Always feeling like he was intruding.
So for plot convenience, Cale is called by the crown prince in the middle of writing and leaves the book out in the open.
Hans, who's been assigned to clean Cale's room, See's a book that has no cover or title or anything and opens it out of curiosity.
Hans sees a few drawings of the kids and naturally is excited because 1- Cale can draw really well, and 2- He loves cats.
Then he keeps going through the book, looking through drawings of him, Ron, Choi han, and- the Henituse family with Cale not in the portrait.
Hans is confused. (Deep down, he knows exactly what this implies)
He assumes that the drawing isn't finished (it's already been signed) and closes the book with shakey hands. Maybe the Count doesn't need to know about this-
Except when he comes back next week, the drawing hasn't changed.
Huh.

Just posting my drafts now- honestly I do really like this idea, maybe I'll write something to go along with it later?
I should start making the second parts of things I've already posted lmao-
In the translation I read the joke was explained, but I didn't understand it well.
I do it now (─‿‿─)
Warning: Laws of Hunting spoilers
Okay so I know Cale's name got mistranslated to "Gae-il Henidukes" in Central Plains, which later on became "Kim Gae-il" before becoming "Kim Hae-il".
What you don't understand is why "Gae-il" is so funny.
Raon said he dislikes "Gae-il" with a burning passion for a reason he doesn't know; Choi Han nearly bursts out laughing right then and there; Sui Khan was holding on for dear life.
Here's why.
I read the Chinese translation of this chapter (chapter 85) first, and in Chinese, "Gae-il" is "狗日", which can colloquially be translated to "Dog Fuck."
Literally.
The Emperor is literally calling this audacious tiny ass man "Dog Fuck" to his face, and Cale couldn't do anything about it because he literally brought this upon himself.
Yes people, we were robbed of "Kim Dog Fuck", and damn do I wonder what other jokes might have been lost in translation.
Alberu: Are you sure they will be okay? Cale: The children are going to be fine, the one you have to worry about is the lunatic. Alberu:??? Cale: Hopefully he'll be alive when we get back.
Clopeh: Children, people will criticize your dreams. 'You can’t just secretly film every single battle of Cale-nim and broadcast it to the world'. 'Being a devoted Cale-nim follower is not a real job'. 'Stop trying to register Caleism as an actual religion'.
Clopeh: Ignore them. Be real. Be yourself. Start a Cale-nim cult.
On, Hong, Raon, Lock and all the wolf children:...........
On: Who though it was a good idea to let him babysit us today?
I need Cale-nim in Naru form and team leader Sui Khan to act and scam the world together. The master and his top student, two master scammers, the whole ordeal is gonna be so beautifully done.
I really like that the romance and shipping are left for the secondary characters (Mannah, Jax, Hatoonka, etc.) ( ̄ω ̄)
I prefer to read about queerplatonic relationships, family and friendships, that's one of the main reasons I love this book. (*¯ ³¯*)♡
Love all the shipping but i gotta remember why i started reading this manhwa in the first place xD
It's the stuff of nightmares to think about having an ever-growing population of dragons (;;;*_*)
In the best situation, humans and all other races would be slaves to the whims of the dragons, dying one after another.
In the worst case it is the end of the world.
Wait! (◎ ◎) That doesn't sound like…
I always thought the reason Dragons only lay one egg in TCF (being Sherritt the only exception) was a bit obvious, and then realized I'm stupid for thinking it was obvious, so I'll share my thoughts.
It's a way to avoid overpopulation.
Think about it, each ecosystem has its own rules and there is a reason why invasor species (animals that were thoughlessly released in an ecosystem they didn't belong to) are considered invasors.
They tilt the whole balance within, they eat other species that eat plagues or help pollination, and end up becoming a plague.
What do you think would happen if Dragons were social creatures? What do you think would happen if they reproduced like humans or could lay more eggs like, say, snakes?
Dragons are the Apex Predator of Apex Predators. Just one of them can destroy a whole country, the ecosystem would collapse if too many inhabit the world, it's not like Dragons would hesitate to get rid of anything inconveniencing them
So yeah, nature has to have a way to keep them in check
UFHUERHHFFNESNNJNFFNSEAIJJJMZOKAKFEMAGNNESGNV!
¡I LOVE IT! (*♡∀♡)
I've never seen many Dark Tiger!Alberu fanarts, but this is definitely one of the most beautiful ones out there! (❤ω❤)
The Majestic Dark Tiger Alberu Crossman 😌
My God! Like never before, no one thought about how useless the poor soldiers felt every time Cale and his group were present (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ
They surely work to the bone to overcome their own "uselessness" and be able to protect their commander when not even a dragon can do so.
LOL (o´▽`o)
Today's battle might be my last day. I don't know if I'm going to make it back home to my family. The enemy has mages , bear tribe , lion tribe and even many others dressed in black in their army. It feels like we're going to have a hard time. Well fortunately, our side has the greatest commander who uses his shield and strategies to win the battles; our hero the young master silver shield, Cale Henituse.
He's now standing straight facing the enemy while giving us his back, and he's..... holding a wip? And talking to himself ?? is that ok? Well what do I know I'm just a soldier..... Anyway, the enemy started firing at us and the commander has immediately activated his sheild and water ancient ... Wait a minute since when did he have a water ancient power like that!? AND NOW HE'S ATTACKING THEM WITH THUNDER BOLTS!!! WHAT IS THIS?!! A GOLDEN DRAGON!! WHERE DID HE COME FROM !? WAIT ISN'T COMMANDER CALE COUGHING BLOOD? HE'S DYING!! NOW HIS PEOPLE ARE GOING CRAZY AND DESTROYING EVERYTHING!! WHAT IS GOING ON!?
..................
And the battle is over, the commander has fainted, the enemy retreated and we won .. why am I even here ?
All my random ideas and TCF content that I need to share with someone (o^▽^o)
