The Sun Proposed to the Moon

The Transmigrator and Regressor

TW: Attempted Suicide 

Kim Rok Soo halted in his tracks seeing as his surroundings changed. It wasn't destruction crippled buildings, nor his office but a deep and dark forest.

Odd looking bugs and birds.

It was peaceful.

Though he was unsure how to react to this guy speaking to him.

"Can you tie this for me?"

That's what Kim Rok Soo was asked. In a language he never spoke or learned, yet somehow understood. Though the question wasn't much, based on the several bandages and tired look on this man's face, that rope in his hand would be used for something Kim Rok Soo wanted nothing a part of.

"...What?" He spoke the language so easily, yet it felt odd on his tongue.

Kim Rok Soo asked, staring at the person in front of him. He'd never seen him before and yet, he was all too familiar with this guy.

Crimson hair, reddish gray eyes, a young and rather handsome man. Yeah, this person was the real deal.

"Cale Henituse?"

"That is my name." Cale frowned at Kim Rok Soo. A rope in his left hand and a wine bottle in his right. That blank and tired look in Cale's eyes was unsettling to look at. "When I asked earlier, you acted as if you didn't know me."

"I have heard of a person called Cale Henituse, but I am unsure of who you are exactly." Kim Rok Soo lied of course.

It was a typical day off. It had been a while since he had read an actual book instead of on his phone, so he went to the library to check out some books. He borrowed the entire series since he planned to read all day long.

The name of the book was [The Birth of a Hero]. Kim Rok Soo managed to finish the fifth Volume before he fell asleep. But when he woke up he was lying in a dark forest only to meet the individual the main character had mercilessly beaten up in volume 1.

That person was asking him to tie a rope for him.

That much was odd but, the fact he was isolated in a dark forest, a place no one would have the courage to come too...

"How do you want me to tie it?" Kim Rok Soo asked cautiously. If it's what he thinks it is, he'd be leaving immediately.

"Into a noose if you could."

Fuck.

This guy was trying to kill himself.

Cale Henituse, the Trash of the Counts family, was suicidal.

"I refuse."

"I'll pay you."

Tempting offer but, Kim Rok Soo wasn't going to be part of someone else's suicide, besides, from the looks of it Cale has already met the main character, Choi Han. He only wonders how long it's been since then.

"If you want to die so badly, you should work for it. Tie it yourself." Kim Rok Soo frowned at the man in front of him. His life motto was pretty simple.

Living long without pain. Enjoying the small joys of life.

That was why dealing with this person was troublesome.

"It's worth trying." Cale sighed and sat on a nearby rock. Making attempts to tie the rope, ignoring Kim Rok Soo's disappearing presence.

Kim Rok Soo left without uttering a single word. He was almost certain the alcoholic noble would give up after a while and return to his home.
