[TCF] I don't want to be a fainting maiden either okay?!

Chapter 1

"I really am Cale"

Do people usually become calmer when they are surprised and shocked? Cale, no, Kim Rok Soo, calmly thought about the night before.

It was a typical day off. He was reading the book, [The Birth of a Hero] when his frequent nap attacks happened again, not that it's unusual.

Cale started to mumble as he looked toward the ceiling.

"It's not like there's much I'll miss."

His life as Kim Rok Soo. There really wasn't much to it. Besides being an orphan and having no money, he also developed narcolepsy during his adolescence.

That time, the attacks wasn't frequent that's why he was able to safely survive and finish high school.

And when the apocalypse happened, he was at least able to control sleep attacks when in battlefield.

Even with the disorder, he never thought of dying.

He didn't like pain or death. No matter what it was, even if he was rolling in a pile of dog shit, it was still better than being dead.

'For that reason, I need to first make sure I don't get beaten up.'

After leaving the dining room, Cale saw Hans and smiled at him.

"Hans, take good care of me"

"Ah, of course. Please take good care of me as well. I will do my best."

Hans stumbled a bit as he answered, but Cale just let it be. Cale saw Ron standing there as soon as he opened the door and started to frown.

"Ron, didn't I tell you to go eat?"

"Young master, it is my duty to take care of you."

"Enough. I don't need it so go eat. Why don't you go eat even when I tell you to go eat? Don't follow me. You know my temper if you do, right?"

After he 'threatened' Ron, he peeked at his expression and saw Ron was standing there with a stiff expression while Hans was looking towards him with shock.

'Should I not have thrown a tantrum?'

Cale was scared of the assassin old man's stiff expression and turned his head back around before speeding back to the study.

At night, someone knocks on Cale's study.

"Young Master, you have been holed up there for a whole day. It will be midnight soon."

However, no one answers. Ron then hears a thud inside and decided to go inside. There, he saw Cale unconscious at the floor.

Ron tries to call and shake him awake but Cale will not wake up. He looks around the room but saw nothing suspicious, Cale's breathing was fine and no sign of alcohol being consumed.

He then calls for hans and order him to call for a doctor.(do they have a doctor? or is it just priests? i forgot)

"There is nothing wrong with him, it looks like he is just sleeping and will wake up in an hour" The doctor informs every person there while wiping his sweat. He can feel all sorts of glare directed at him, 'This Young Master is really just sleeping okay?!'.

Count Deruth frowns at that, "Alright, thank you. You may go, but I want him to get monitored for a week"

The doctor hastily said, "Yes yes. I will come here everyday." With that he left.

When Cale woke up, it was about an hour later. Hans was beside his bed sitting.

"Oh! Young Master, you finally woke up. Mr. Ron saw you unconscious on the floor and calls for a doctor-"

"Stop," Cale puts a hand up to stop his rambling and massages his temple. 'Really, so noisy'.

"I get it, you can go inform them that I'm fine, and that I'm going back to sleep."

"Bu-but Young Master Cale, are you sure you really feel fine?" Hans nervously asked.

"Yes, go back. It is midnight, I want to go back to sleep don't disturb me."

After a moment of hesitation, Hans finally leaves the room.

As Hans left, Cale then fell into a trance and thought, 'his disorder is still here even after transmigrating?'

'Well, that is annoying.'

He needs to head out tomorrow to [The Fragrance of Tea with Poetry] shop. After that, he has to make sure to get that ancient power.

'Yes, I have to get it to be safe and achieve my slacker life. Even more so that he learns his disorder came with him in this world'

But of course, all of that would be for later. Because for now, he is going back to sleep.

Just like before, he has to make sure to seize every opportunities to sleep. He needs to rest well because he will work very hard tomorrow.
