18 Chapter 18: Study Hard

Yu Qi changed her school uniform to sports attire. She already thought of a way to sell the fruits and vegetables that grew in her space. She decided to pretend to go to the nearby mountain to collect some fruits and wild vegetables.

She walked through the town. At a certain point, she was greeted by some local villagers. She made a polite smile. She had also been asked by them about where she was heading to.

She just simply said that she wanted to go to the mountain to find some wild vegetables to sell. At first, the villagers told her not to go to the mountain because of the danger but then gave up when Yu Qi insisted to go.

She entered the mountain. After a while, she stopped and scanned the surroundings. After confirming that there was nobody around, she closed her eyes and entered her space.

"Master, you come." Bo Ya came to see her with an excited face.

"Hi, my dear." Yu Qi greeted him.

"What do you want to do today, master?" Bo Ya asked.

"I want to continue my lesson about the herbs from yesterday. I think I also want to learn self-defence. I want to protect myself." Yu Qi explained.

"We have a lot of books about martial arts. Master can learn as many as you want and choose the one suiting you the best."

They entered the pagoda heading to Mary. Sensing someone approaching her, Mary began to wake up.

"Welcome master. What do you want to learn today?" Mary asked with a normal tone.

"I want to continue my lesson about the herbs from yesterday."

"Confirmation... Chinese herbs... Okay, master. You can enter the lift now." The lift door was opened after Mary finished her sentence.

Using the same road, Yu Qi arrived at the learning room. The voice began to continue the lesson. With full of attention, she learned about the herbs. Bo Ya also studied together with her.

Similar to yesterday, after 3 hours, she stopped the lesson. Her brain was already full at the moment. She was afraid that if she continued the lesson, her brain might blow.

"I want to rest about 30 minutes before learning martial arts." She walked out of the learning room.

"Master comes. I will show you where you can rest. You will love it." Bo Ya pulled her hand.

Seeing Bo Ya like this, she knew that she will love that place. So, she just followed where Bo Ya brought her. Yeah, she knew that she was right. In front of her, it's almost like the scene that came out of an ancient Chinese drama. An ancient Chinese pavilion with chairs and a table surrounded by a lake fully covered with blooming pink lotus flowers, with a beautiful view of the mountain.

"Wow, this is very beautiful. I didn't expect to see this in real life. Totally stunning." Yu Qi turned her whole body.

She sat on the chair there. The chair looked like the ones often used at the beach. The wind blows softly against her face making her sleepy. " Bo Ya, make sure you wake me up after 30 minutes. I want to rest for a while."

"Ok, master."

Then her mind drifted over after she closed her eyes.

"You will lose something if you do this. Are you sure?" Yu Qi heard this question being asked of her. But she doesn't understand what it means by that.

"Master, wake up. It's time." This time, she heard Bo Ya's voice. "Master."

She slowly opened her eyes. She rises from the chair and started to stretch.

"Bo Ya, I want to wash my face. Is it okay to use this water lake?" She gave a look at the lake.

"Yes. It's clean."

After cleaning, she entered the pagoda again. Approaching Mary, Yu Qi asked her to bring her to study martial arts. She was brought by the lift to a room.

Entering the room, she saw an odd combination of this place. She noticed that there was a gym, a field, and a room filled with weapons like swords, daggers, and knives.

The most shocking view there was a shooting place. Yeah... Shooting with a gun. She also spotted a room filled with a lot of types of different guns.

"Master, you can select the martial art that you want to learn. You also can choose an instructor to teach you." Bo Ya explained in front of one mirror... Well, let's call it a screen.

"Bo Ya, can you choose the simplest one for me? I want to learn something not requiring me to use a weapon." She eyed the screen and noticed there were a lot of martial arts even she did not know about them.

Bo Ya made his choice after a few minutes of consideration. Yu Qi was once more shocked by her instructor. That instructor, his look, even when she touched him felt like a human. She's surprised with her space. It provided and helped her in many ways. Now she wonders how this space became her space.
