Dolorosus [A Trash of the Count's Reaction Fic]

Prologue

A single strand of blood dripped down from Cale's mouth.

However, he was smiling.

'It works.'

This was working.

It was very slow, but the Super Rock and the Dominating Aura, these two ancient powers were taking over the temple.

The speed was slowly increasing as well.

It was difficult at first but Cale could feel the faint aura quickly taking over the temple like a crack in a dam.

The temple rumbled for a different reason now.

Bang! Baaaaang!

The noise of the gods' clash lessened as well.

The God of Despair's aura roared as if it was anxious.

'If it is like this...!'

Cale's eyes clouded over.

He was certain that he would be able to Embrace the sealed god in a little bit.

– Cale!

The Super Rock anxiously shouted at that moment.

'Hmm?'

Cale wondered why the Super Rock was acting like this when things were in his favor.

-Behind you!

"Cale!"

Cale got the chills. He wasn't able to dodge the incoming attack aimed at him.

"Ugh! Cough!"

It was such a strong punch to his gut that he almost lost his grip on the book.

"We met again."

At the familiar voice, Cale turned his head. His eyes widened. It was Jung Yi-Rang.

Jung Yi-Rang smiled at Cale and greeted him.

"Long time no see, Kim Rok Soo."

Cale froze with the name he was called. His eyes started to tremble.

"Jung Yi-Rang, why are you here...?"

"Ho, it seems you remember! Kim Rok Soo, did you miss me?"

At his words, everyone stilled. Thick tension could be felt.

"...Kim Rok Soo...? What do you mean..?"

Jung Yi-Rang turned toward the owner of the voice, Rosalyn. She and the rest of the group are frozen in their battle stances. Alberu and Choi Han had stiff expressions and looked at Cale with worry.

Jung Yi-Rang observed them for a while before he clutched his stomach and started laughing.

"Hmm? Pfft, kekekekekeke. You didn't know?" He said with a sneer towards the group. "Kim Rok Soo, a body-snatcher. He stole this body! AHAHAHAHAHA, this is hilarious!"

Shaky eyes full of disbelief were directed towards the red-head. And with Cale avoiding their gazes, it pretty much confirms the man's sentence.

Before they could fall into a panic, Alberu spoke to everyone.

"Everyone! Calm yourselves! We must address this issue first and foremost!"

His words made the group decide to deal with this urgent matter first. They will talk with 'Cale' later.

"Aww, a shame. Oh well, I should do what I came here for."

Jung Yi-Rang shook his head in disappointment before heading towards where Cale was standing and clutching his stomach. The group was alerted and fixed their stances. Jung Yi-Rang ignored them and spoke to Cale with a vicious glint in his eyes.
