Why Won't You Let Me Slack!?

Chapter 50

Waking up on a moldy mattress was not something Rok Soo had ever thought he would end up experiencing. Then again-

'It's better than ending up like them,' he thought to himself, looking down at the still unconscious Bud, Barrow and Archie who were laying in a pile on the floor, unaware of just how gross it was from even a glance alone.

As much as he would love to keep watching them kicking and pushing each other away in their sleep, Rok Soo had more worrying things to think about.

Without second thought, he quickly tries to use their group chat that the God of Death had made to try to contact Cale and Kim Namwoon, only to receive silence in response.

'They must be busy or unconscious somewhere else,' he thought, letting out a sigh in annoyance at the dokkaebi who separated them. However, just as he was about to close the group chat so he could wake the others, he noticed a message he'd missed, one that had been sent out even before the dokkaebi separated them from one another.

'So this is how he wants to play it,' Rok Soo smirked, already realizing what the message meant for them.

Not wanting to waste any more time, he immediately got to work.

Getting up from the bed, Rok Soo stretched, popping his back as he shook off his drowsiness before silently stared down at the sleeping teens, a soft expression on his face as he gazed down at the three people he now considered like family.

However, as kind as he may have looked in the moment, that soon changed as an evil smile quickly made its way onto his face.

[Constellation 'Last Boulder Guarding the World' wonders what you are planning]

And as if on cue, grabbing a water bottle from his spatial storage bag, Rok Soo made his way towards the door before suddenly pouring its entire contents onto the sleeping group of reincarnators.

*Splash*

"Ack-!"

"AHH!"

"Son of a-!"

Ignoring the shouts and curses coming from the three surprised teens at the cold water waking them, Rok Soo ran out of the room laughing as he went to investigate the area, not yet realizing just how familiar they actually were with their current location.

Avoiding the broken floorboards as he walked through the empty halls of the abandoned building, Rok Soo made his way out of their old orphanage.

"...pa"

"..."

"Op.."

"...?"

"Oppa!"

Eyelids gently fluttering open as he regained consciousness once more, Cale woke up to the sight of black clouds still swirling over Seoul like a black hole.

"Son of a..." he muttered, closing his eyes again as he tried to ignore the headache that damn dokkaebi gave him.

"What did you say, oppa?"

However he quickly shot up to a sitting position upon hearing the innocent voice of a child next to him calling him oppa. Turning to look at where the voice came from, he quickly calmed down upon seeing a familiar set of dark eyes looking up at him.

"Oh, it's you again," he softly said, looking down at the little girl with black pigtails he had met near Sagajeong station during his escapade with Rok Soo and Barrow.
