#poor alberu

[crazydaymycrazyway]

Alberu, randomly: Cale, what are we?

Cale: a human and a quarter dark elf?

Alberu: No, what are we to each other?

Cale: You're the Crown Prince and I'm your loyal subject?

Alberu, frustrated: No, I mean what is our relationship?

Cale: Sworn brothers?

Alberu: ....

Alberu: Never mind

[he4d-banger]

If Raon wasn't around. ..

Cale: *deciding if it's worth waking up after a two weeks coma*

Alberu: open your eyes... Wake up you bastard!

Cale: *pretends to still be sleeping*

Alberu: you must face the chaos you made last time...

Cale:...

Alberu: you can burn stuff

Cale: mmmmngh

Alberu: ...and you can have a golden plaque

Cale: *opens eyes*

an au I thought up of where Cale does actually decide to run away and helps the roan Kingdom from the shadows and stuff-

It'd be funny if Cale just slapped all of the information from the five novels he read into a stack of paper and sent it to Alberu, his reasoning being "I don't wanna do shit, you deal with the war(s) :D" you could also have a moment where Cale sends another letter basically saying "your current commanders are shit not bad but could be better, have some war strategies (If you don't send me money for this I'll break into your office and move everything two inches to the left)"

Before running away, he collects enough allowance from Deruth to last him a while, gets the shield ancient power, and he gains the trust of the cats so they follow him. On the night that he's supposed to meet Choi han, Cale gives him something (a sandwich?) he bought earlier to eat and directs him towards the Henituse mansion with a letter that was mostly prepared beforehand so the guards (and Ron) let him in.

Cale saves the dragon with the rented devices from billos with a bit more difficulty (and injuries) but he manages to free him anyways.

Then he begins to head towards the capital (because as much as he'd like to go to the ubar territory, there's a chance amiru could see him-) and plans to stay there for a while before the plaza terror incident. He takes the healing ancient power, gives advice to Taylor while doing his best to avoid him and cage, and unofficially officially adopts the dragon into his party. Not exactly in that order but oh well-

---

Ron and Beacrox are mighty suspicious of Choi han because he's brought a letter that was obviously from their young master but without the young master. And shit gets worse when Cale doesn't come back home that night-

Choi han gets interrogated, fights Ron (only a lil), and sets out to find the person that helped him in his time of intense despair, memories of the kind stranger feeding the cats and handing him something to eat when he hadn't eaten anything in two days(Choi han).

He feels grateful, and chooses to ignore the rumors about a "drunk, trashy young master" because the person who helped him and the person from the rumors seem like completely different people. (Later, when he finds the redhead, he'll notice that he was, infact, completely correct.)

Ron and Beacrox join him because he smells like the organization that attacked their family and because Choi han is, unfortunately, the only lead they have on finding the young master that they took care of.

When they eventually find cale (new additions including lock and Rosalyn, yay) Choi han is deadset on repaying his meal and the help they received during the plaza terror incident

This Choi han is a tad more mentally unstable and latches onto the only source of somewhat warmth he's received since Harris village-

Ron is being a dad in the background and scolding Cale for not telling them his plan of running away and Beacrox is looking disapprovingly at the fact that the young master has gotten skinnier-

(Alberu is shooketh in the background because that letter he got detailing the bombing and a few other things days ago actually came true and is this person an ally or a threat-)

A draft from a while ago, with some things that were added-

[youngyoo-apologist]

I like this scene because when I was writing it I was thinking about how fun everything would be once Alberu joins the party ahaha

This poor guy will not only have to deal with Regressor Cale, but Regressor Choi Han AND Kim Roksoo. Those three will never let the opportunity to tease Alberu slip by. Also I find this one scene really funny because Alberu is absolutely thinking to himself ‘what the hell was that’ when he made eye contact with Cale, the young master of the Henituse family who is famous for his brutal honesty and words, is smiling at him in a way that reminded Alberu too much of himself.

Realistically, there should be no way the young master knows anything about him, not when they had only exchanged a few greetings in passing. Sure, the Henituse county was rich, but they had no reason to dig for information on him unless he provoked them. So why did it feel like Cale Henituse knew something very important about him?

rei's short note : i plan to post this on wattpad or ao3 on friday, so i want to hear your opinion. should i post it or nah?

imagine the reader being white star's kid. like when he (the white star) broke the vow of death and stole the red egg and raon's egg, burning the dragon slayer village. he also makes sure to kill the reader since according to him, the reader is too innocent to survive this world without him. besides, he also doesn't want the reader to suffer because of him. but little did he know the reader also got cursed after their father broke the vow of death that they made with the last dragon lord (sheritt).

the reader also become a reincarnator. the only difference is unlike their father, the reader doesn't steal other people's bodies. since every time she got reincarnated (with her memory intact) the gods always gave them a new body. since according to the gods up on the heavenly realm. the reader didn't do anything wrong. they just got cursed just like their father because the white star treasures them so much ( in a very unhealthy way ).

fast forward to the current timeline. the white star got defeated by cale and co. but the reader's curse is still not broken. and that was the time that cale go to the orphanage where the reader was. and of course, he met the reader there. the reader's current body has the same crimson red hair and the reader's eyes were the same as cale the only difference is the reader's eyes have a lighter colour. what was the reason why cale go to the orphanage where the reader was? simple, it's because he needs to find the reader! why does he need to find the reader? well.. thanks to a certain someone (the god of death) he got some information about the reader. and besides, let's just say when the white star was slowly becoming ash after cale stabbed him. he heard him say someone's name, which is the reader's name of course.

and of course, after meeting the reader. much to the reader's surprise, cale adopted them and brought them with him. what does everyone's reaction? of course they are surprised! who wouldn't be surprised when their young master cale brought back a kid with him after going on a 'vacation trip'?! and that kid looks exactly like him!?!

and because of you, a rumour spread around the eastern and western continents that you were cale's illegitimate child. but cale didn't even bother to correct those rumours. since he was too busy lazing around with you and the others and spoiling you with clothes and food (since according to him, you were too thin). besides, it will be better for people to think that you were his illegitimate child than being the white star's child, right? since once people know that you were the white star's child. people will surely try to kill you. don't get him wrong, he hates the white star but he cares about you.

are you wondering what is alberu's reaction when he heard about that rumour? well, he knows how crazy his dongsaeng is. so there is nothing about his dongsaeng that will surprise him anymore. but hearing that his dongsaeng had an illegitimate child? boy, alberu almost fainted after hearing that, poor alberu.

[murasaki-cha]

One of my favorite running gags (or I don’t know if Yoo Ryeo Han just does that unintentionally) in TCF is the way Cale just casually drops truth bombs on Alberu like there’s no tomorrow.

Poor Alberu has to suffer so many times because his gremlin of a dongsaeng has absolutely no filter. Of course he doesn’t just do this with Alberu, he does this with everyone but most of the time is with Alberu.

Example 1: Cale telling Alberu he knows about his dark elf blood

Cale: Your highness have this dead mana that I found in my back yard so I can gain things from you

Alberu: *profoundly sweating* Why would I need dead mana

Cale: Dude I know you’re a half dark elf and honestly I don’t care just want you to give me cash in exchange of my services

Alberu:……it’s actually a quarter

Example 2: The dragon’s first growth phase

Alberu: Cale you’ve been in your tent for too long. Did something something happen?

Cale: your highness I have a dragon son who is going through a growth phase. The gorgeous knight I bring with me sometimes is an ancient dragon. Also in approximately T-minus 7 days I’m going to explode from the inside out out. So we kinda need to go fix this

Alberu: ……I didn’t sign up for any of this shit

Example 3: GoD letter

Alberu: Cale what did the letter say

Cale: *trying his hardest to hide the countdown* Oh you know, just that I was supposed to die nothing major.

Alberu: I cannot stress this enough, what is wrong with you!

Example 4: The Sun God’s message

Alberu: So I fear that I will never be fit to be king because of this prophecy that’s discriminating my race

Cale: Hyung your ancestor was a criminal!

Alberu: WHAT THE LEGITIMATE FUC-

Example 5: Finding out about Kim Rok Soo and Choi Han

Cale: The kids are doing well right?

Dark tiger Alberu: Yeah don’t worry they’re doing ok with Ron

Cale: Ok than. Btw I’m a 36 year old transmigrated who possessed the body of Cale Henituse 2 years ago and Choi Han is my best friend’s second uncle meaning he’s old as fuck and was sent to your world.

Choi Han: *smiling innocently*

Datk tiger Alberu: ……One of these days you’re going to make me walk down the path of alcoholism

And these aren’t all of them. There was the part with Record in the Mercenary’s Guild directory, and some shit about Adin. And a whole lot more. But I don’t really remember most of them. I really need to reread the novel.

At least Alberu got his revenge when he unexpectedly made Cale his sworn brother. That was probably so satisfying for him
