Trash of the Count’s Family

condition gets better. I ’ll rush over right away.”

They all headed back out without any complaints even though they had only been here for a short time.

They heard Cale ’s voice behind them as they were leaving.

”By the way, have you all eaten?”

They walked out of the room and some of them turned their heads back and others turned around once they were in the hallway. They could see the nonchalant look on their commanders face.

“You must make sure to never skip a meal.”

Their commander was talking to them with the most serious expression they had ever seen.

“You must eat before you work. Oh, and all of you look even worse than me. Please go get some rest. Eat well, sleep well, and rest well. Those three things are very important. Eating is especially important among the three. Do you understand?”

“Pffft.”

Joo Ho-Shik chuckled before responding back.

“Commander-nim, you should make sure that you don ’t miss a meal. We take good care of ourselves.”

“Thats right. We are taking good care of ourselves.”

Kim Min Ah mischievously smiled before agreeing with Joo Ho-Shik.

Park Jin Tae, who had been the last to leave, made a comment as well.

“You make sure to eat.”

He then said the following as he closed the door.

“Get some rest.”

Click.

The door closed again.

“Rok Soo, make sure to keep Jin Tae ’s words to heart.”

Cale nodded his head at Lee Soo Hyuk, who was the only person to not leave.

“I will make sure to eat.”

Cale suddenly started to think about apple pies.

He was actually thinking about the moment that the tear-soaked apple pies had been shoved in to his mouth.

He was also thinking about the lemon teas that Ron had handed him in the past.

‘Wow, I ’m even thinking about that dreadful lemon tea.

Cale wondered why he was thinking about that but closed his eyes for a moment after seeing Rons face appear along with the tea.

“There are two minutes left.”

“I know.”

Screeeech.

The door opened.

“Youre here?”

Cale could see Choi Han who was walking in with a calm expression as well as Choi Jung Soo who was standing outside the door without being able to come in.

Choi Jung Soos expression looked terrible.

No, it looked as if his mind was a chaotic mess.

At the same time, it looked oddly calm.

He seemed relieved about something.

Cale did not ask Choi Han and Choi Jung Soo about their chat.

It was because although Choi Han ’s face was calm, his eyes were red. It didnt look as if he had cried but there were numerous emotions floating in Choi Hans eyes right now.

“Choi Jung Soo. Come in or stay out but make up your mind.”

Choi Jung Soo flinched before walking into the room and Lee Soo Hyuk closed the door.

“Choi Jung Soo.”

“…Yeah?”

“Make sure you eat properly and rest well.”

“You, you-”

Choi Jung Soo could not finish his sentence.

He then looked at Choi Han before turning back toward Cale and starting to speak again.

“Okay. Make sure you eat properly and rest well too.”

He then opened and closed his mouth over and over for a moment.

”And, and-”

Cale looked toward Choi Han. He then heard Choi Jung Soo ’s voice.

”And see you again.”

“Haaaa.”

Cale quietly observed thehaaa coming out of Choi Hans mouth that he couldn ’t tell whether it was a sigh or a laugh before closing his eyes.

‘It seems Choi Han pretty much told him everything.

Choi Han seemed to have made up his mind after hearing him tell Lee Soo Hyuk quite a lot of things.

It was at that moment.

“Rok Soo.”

He heard Lee Soo Hyuks voice.

“There is something I want to tell you.”

Lee Soo Hyuk hesitated for a moment before continuing to speak.

“…You ’ve been through a lot.”

Cale clenched his eyes shut.

He never expected to hear such words from Lee Soo Hyuk.

He heard Lee Soo Hyuks voice again at that moment.

”And see you again.”

Cale opened his eyes and looked toward Lee Soo Hyuk.

He wanted to say that that would be hard to do. He wanted to tell him not to have such unrealistic expectations.

However, Lee Soo Hyuk was a bit faster.

”Just like you did it. Maybe one day, I, or any one of us, might be able to go help you out.”

Lee Soo Hyuk started to smile.

”See you again someday.”

Cale started to smile as well.

But he could not respond back.

“Choi Han.”

He called out to Choi Han instead.

There was less than one minute left.

“What do you need to do to go back?”

How was Choi Han supposed to go back?

Unlike Cale, Choi Han had entered Cales test thanks to the God of Death.

“Hyung, you just have to say something to me.”

‘What do I need to say?

Cale looked toward Choi Han who was smiling without telling him what to say and started to frown.

But he soon started to speak.

The thing he needed to tell Choi Han…

There was only one thing to say right now.

“Lets go home.”

Going back.

Going to the place where people were waiting for them.

That was the only thing to say.

It was at that moment.

“…Ah.”

Choi Jung Soo gasped.

Crack, crack-

Choi Hans body was slowly breaking and turning into dust.

“Ill be heading back first.”

Choi Han said that and motioned to Choi Jung Soo with his eyes before closing them.

His body quickly disappeared from this world.Theres less than 30 seconds left.

Cale said goodbye to the Kim Rok Soo of this world last.Dealing with things will be easier thanks to you.

‘Are you talking about how I told them I lost my abilities?Yes. Its not like I can keep using your ancient powers.

Kim Rok Soos voice was calm but sounded disappointed as well.

Cale, the other Kim Rok Soo, knew this was the case.Dont worry. I might not be able to use the ancient powers but I will quickly figure out the other abilities you used.

‘I ’m not worried. Youll do a good job.

Kim Rok Soo could not respond to Cale before barely managing to say something.Goodbye.

‘Bye.

5 seconds. 4 seconds.

“Rok Soo, travel safely.”

3 seconds.

Cale opened his eyes and looked at the two remaining people.

The two people who had died in his place.

“Please live well.”

2 seconds.

Cale slowly closed his eyes.

He should be in the other world once he opened his eyes now.

1 second.

It was time to leave.

“Ugh!”

Blood started to drip out of Cales mouth.

“Rok Soo!”

“Hey!”

Cale could see the anxious look on Lee Soo Hyuk and Choi Jung Soo ’s faces.

But Cale was clutching on the bed sheet while continuing to cough up blood.

“Cough, cough!”What is going on?

He could hear Kim Rok Soos anxious voice in his mind as well.

The Super Rock awkwardly mumbled at that moment.It looks like he is in pain while his soul is trying to break the connection with this body to head back.

Cale started to frown.

‘T, this, cough.”

“Rok Soo, Kim Rok Soo!”

“Hey, w, why are you in so much pain unlike my paternal cousin once removed?”

‘My thoughts exactly!

Cale was flabbergasted that only he had to deal with such pain as Choi Jung Soo mentioned.

‘Couldnt he have sent me off looking cool?!

“Ugh, cough, sealed god, y, you motherfucking son of a bitch!”

The Super Rock and Kim Rok Soo mumbled in pity.

…S, stay strong. Cale. Ill wait for you on the other side.

My goodness, you just suffer all the time.

I knew that sealed god is a son of a bitch we cant thank.

‘Hes sending me back like this?!

Couldnt he let my goodbye be cool?!

The world slowly turned black.

Cale saw the world turn completely dark as pain shot throughout his body.

“Ugh!”

He let out a short groan before falling back.

Then he blacked out.

Cales eyes closed on their own in the darkness.

It was at that moment.You managed to overcome the sealed gods test in the end.

He could faintly hear the God of Deaths voice.

His voice was oddly warm.Human. Do not think that this is the end.

That voice slowly became quieter and quieter.You never know when you might be reconnected with people you know.

Fate is something even the laws of the world cannot fathom.

Cale listened to the God of Deaths words and started to think.

‘What bullshit is he saying now?

That thought subconsciously came out loud.

“…What kind of bullshit is that?”

It was at that moment.

“Human!”

Cale flinched after hearing a familiar voice.

‘Did I come back?

Cale debated whether he should open his eyes or not.

He heard a voice he was happy to hear once again.

“Our human said something just now! He said,what kind of bullshit is that?! He was speaking curtly as usual!”

Flutter flutter.

He could hear the sound of wings fluttering.

”Everybody, come here!”

He then heard bright voices that sounded both happy and full of tears.

“Our human is here!”

“Hes awake, nya!”

“Hes up, nya!”

Cale stopped hesitating and opened his eyes.

Everything started to light up.

He saw a background of many colors before seeing Raon, On, and Hong who were both smiling brightly and crying while looking at him.
