Taking up some more deep breaths before then doing some light stretches, Rok soo decided to take a quick cold shower first to calm down his nerves.

'Things are slowly getting back in my favor'

Which are all thanks to Cale who understands what he needed and proceed with the plan even though he's not fully briefed with the full layout.

'The necklaces, the dagger, and the poison.'

With those items, Rok Soo is planning to die in two days.

"For someone who's planning his own death... faked or not, The young master-nim is abnormally calm and it unnerves me"

Harol commented with bodily shudders, in which Toonka, who was watching with his friend along with other warriors, of course, accompanied with some booze, ended up patting his back with a huff.

"Well, that what makes my friend so amazing!"

That mage hates to admit it, but he couldn't agree more with his captain.

After clearing his head some more and finally regaining his composure, enough for him to come prepared with his next plan, he then gets dressed up before then staring at his reflection in the mirror.

He looked... tired.

"Heh"

Rok Soo let out a chuckle.

"I looked like Soo Hyuk, how unpleasant"

Shaking his head, he then fixed his expression once more before heading out.

It's time to get back to his role.

Of course, when Rok Soo was taking a bath, the screen was turned off.

They only got to know what's going on through description until their Hero-nim was once again dressed up.

Some people bit their lips while some others looked away for a bit when Rok Soo comments about him looking like Lee Soo Hyuk.

Their Hero-nim just admitted that he's tired.

Yet here he is, heading to the dining room where everyone is gathering, ready to act up some more.

Truly, he's someone who doesn't know the word rest...

+

Rok Soo let out a stuttering sigh as he finally collected his own thoughts with some peace of mind before then walking out from the room and meeting the others in the dining room at last.

"Moonlight..."

Choi Han was the first to stand up though he did not get any closer just yet, not wanting his lover to feel uncomfortable.

To which, once again, Rok Soo finds this puppy behavior adorable and ironically relaxed even more than getting all alert.

+

"And he's back"

Choi Han who's feeling better now, chuckled as he watched Rok Soo's demeanor slowly fix.

That swordsman doesn't even mind that his liege practically sees him like an oversized puppy from all of his previous thoughts as well. He's simply relieved that his dearest friend seems to get better himself.

+

This peaceful atmosphere even got his thoughts to wander aimlessly as he subconsciously reached out to rubs on the swordmaster's head.
