Kim Rok Soo who was spending a normal day at his job, finally as normal as possible in a land completely destroyed by giant monsters. He was leading his team towards their base to report on the day. They had eradicated a group of monsters that threatened the new city that was being built. He was completely exhausted after such a day, as always his work colleagues tried to get him to join their small group to go out drinking to celebrate the end of the mission and everyone's survival. No one seemed surprised when he refused, preferring to finish his work, he went to his office to finish his papers. It only took him a few hours to do everything but it was already the middle of the night, there was almost no one left in the premises, the night team had already left for an emergency, he observed the surroundings everything was empty and calm, a calm he hasn't seen in a long time but something was bothering him, he had felt empty for a while long before the loss... no he didn't want to think about it... he had always had a bad feeling at ease as if he didn't belong to this world, as if he was missing something. He shook his head to stop thinking about stupid things he had to go home to finish his book, he had found a good book a while ago but never got around to finishing it. He got up from his office chair and closed the door behind him, he had to go home now.

Whatever happened between him leaving work and him going home, he had no memory all he could see now was that he was in Cale Henituse's body and a old man who knows how to be an assassin has just woken him up, he took a bath and changed to have lunch with the Henituse family. Rok Soo had a lot of questions but his body naturally followed the course of the day without his brain being able to follow it as if it were inhabited by it all.

He was sitting in the dining room with the Henituse family, he was mechanically eating the food in front of him, he was not paying attention to anything around him for the moment until the scene in front of him suddenly changed as he thought about the story he had read which was eerily similar he could recognize the characters in the story, the descriptions of the locations, far too many things for it to be a mere coincidence, he wondered if it was perhaps the reason for this familiarity which he did not understand but he did not have time to think about much more he could see the Henituse county destroyed, the image is was if real.

He is currently standing outside the domain, all that remains are ruins and corpses of people he did not know. He tried to walk closer to the ruins, he could move comfortably as if he were actually walking.

«What is that?» He didn't understand what was happening, until he saw a figure that looked like him crying next to a corpse that looked like Deruth henituse.

At the time, he could feel emotions he didn't understand, but a sense of loss quickly filled him. He clearly didn't like it but he couldn't think for long. Everything stopped and he eventually came back at lunch. He was back in the real world, even if he wasn't sure what was real and what wasn't.

A feeling of nausea filled him, he didn't know who these feelings belonged to but he quickly put a hand over his mouth to try and control his body. He didn't care at all about the people around him. The only thing he could think was:

«What the hell ?!» It seemed even stronger than his ability on earth which allowed him not to forget anything.
