This Random Man

As Jungkook and Mu Shao headed home, Jungkook hummed a song.

It was a song from his past life at Earth, it was fast-paced and hearing would make one tap his fingers or even dance. Jungkook was obviously feeling happy.

Meanwhile Mu Shao, was mumbling like a madman, his Young Master oblivious that his servant was already having unpleasant thoughts on his orientation.

"Young Master.. Young Master.. He.. No.. Wait... Is it still he.. No.. I can't accept this. I can't accept this. My young master, I've followed him all these years, he... Although he didn't have affairs with women, he.. He is totally a man!"

Mumbling like a madman while staring at his feet that were racing against each other, Mu Shao didn't notice that his Young Master already stopped walking to stare at something, causing him to bump at his Young Master's back.

"Umph. Young Master?" Mu Shao suddenly felt embarrassed that he was making such thoughts at his Young Master. Nervously, he asked.

"Is something bothering Young Master?" Mu Shao tried to mask his awkwardness as he smiled at his Young Master.

"Mu Shao that man seems amazing. He is executing a sword art right?" This is the first time that Jungkook have seen a sword art, something from this world that never existed in his. Seeing it being performed at the streets, it looked mighty.

He was awed with the sight and wondered, Will I be able to do that? Jungkook was a curious and adventurous young man and he felt excited at thought of executing a sword art.

"Ah, Young Master, you may not remember but you are actually better than that man. Using swords is one of your talents." Mu Shao showed an excited and proud smile at Jungkook.

"Really? Do we have books about that at home? I want to take a look at them." Jungkook smiled with excitement at the thought.

"Of course Young Master. I will right away instruct people to collect the manuals at home after we get back." Mu Shao felt happy seeing his Young Master being excited at sword arts. He is still the same, he thought.

Little did Mu Shao know, that his Young Master was only curious, he was not the swordmanship maniac Young Master he previously had.

-----------

Arriving home, Mu Shao hurried to instruct servants to collect all the sword manuals that his Young Master previously studied.

He may not remember well, but his body might, and it was better to start again from what he already knew.

Meanwhile, Jungkook browsed at the manuals. He suddenly felt dejected, he couldn't read Chinese at all!

He was excited at learning sword arts but he forgot that he can't read Chinese. Jungkook felt nervous that if he were to ask Mu Shao to read these for him then it would expose him or make it seem that his condition is rather bad.

Sigh.. Maybe I should just let Namjoon-hyung read these for me. Good thing he can read Chinese.

At this thought, Jungkook felt somewhat comforted. He then remembered, what do I do with Namjoon-hyung to get his memories back?

Having no technology here, it was easy to find oneself idle. Jungkook had nothing to do at all, giving him more than enough time to think of a way to make his hyung remember him.

Should I keep speaking in Korean? No, he just subconsciously remembers. Make him read Korean characters? I am not too sure about that. How about our memories together? Something that could make him remember us? Would it work?

Jungkook spent his entire afternoon thinking of a plan to make Namjoon remember. Later, it was nightfall and it was time to sleep.

-----------

After doing Jiuguo's morning routine guided by Mu Shao, Jungkook felt better with the breathing technique that Jiuguo practiced everyday. It was one of the best breathing techniques in the Tianxiang Region.

The body that Jungkook was using is afterall an injured one. So badly that the owner died. Jungkook's timely arrival prevented further deterioration and even spurred improvement of the body's state. Specially the meridians.

After his breakfast with Jiuguo's father which rather went well, Jungkook stood at his garden looking at the scenery. It was neither too simple or too extravagant. Jiuguo had good taste, Jungkook thought. The scenery made him feel calm.

----------

Mu Shao later arrived beside Jungkook and reported.

"Young Master, the man you asked yesterday to work here has arrived and is waiting at the front door. Shall we let him in?"

Mu Shao was still puzzled at his Young Master's actions yesterday but he still dutifully fulfilled his work.

"Let him in." Jungkook smiled.

Nanjun later arrived and he stood before Jungkook.

"Where shall I start Sir?" Nanjun smiled respectfully at Jungkook. Who is his new employer.

"Read me some sword art manuals first." Jungkook smiled as he started heading inside his own study, leading Nanjun in.

----------

Inside the study, Mu Shao was brewing tea as he watched his Young Master stare at Nanjun who was reading the manuals. Mu Shao again grieved.

Young Master! You are staring at a man.. Is this guy so handsome? Also, these manuals are the properties of the Tian Clan!My Young Master has been blinded! Boo hoo!

Meanwhile, the Young Master Mu Shao was grieving for was merely waiting for Nanjun to finish reading so he could teach the contents of the manuals.

He also wanted to see the extent of his Namjoon-hyungs understanding in the world of cultivators.

"This manual focuses on the breathing of an individual, it also requires following the rhythm of one's own heart to properly execute any move desired by the user while using this technique. It focuses on the slightest movement of the body and amplifying them, maximizing the power generated from the slightest exertion of force. This saves strength and could make you last longer in battle."

"The small movements are amplified through the synergy of the breathing technique and the pulse of the user. When one executes a normal move, then the strength would also be normal, but coupling it with the technique, it relies on the ability of the user to feel his own body and pair the small movement with his breathing and pulse at the perfect timing. It is like making three ends of strings meet at one point. The three strings would join together and make a stronger thread and that would manifest in the move released."

"It is also suitable for lower-levels of cultivation as it teaches discipline and precise control to the person. Since the technique relies more on the bodily movements, once it is paired with qi, even with the slightest use, the force generated could be much greater. Using the analogy of the thread, that adds another string to make it up, further strengthening the move. It is an amazing technique but hard to grasp since it focuses on miniscule movement and amplifies it, meaning a wrong move could also cause great fatal effects to the user."

Nanjun was discussing this as he stared at the manual, flipping on the pages every now and then. He suddenly turned into an knowledgeable scholar.

Jungkook on the other hand, had his eyes shining. Namjoon-hyung is good at thinking. There seems nothing wrong on his statements.

Meanwhile Mu Shao, was stunned and his mouth was hanging open again, waiting for an egg to be put inside. It would fit perfectly, maybe there would even be some space left.

That manual wasn't practiced by many and was overlooked. It was viewed as useless since it focused mainly on attaining calm and small movements.

Afterall, not many can maintain calm on battle to the point of focusing more on one's breathing and pulse than giving more importance in analyzing the opponent thoughts and next moves.

Mu Shao was not a martial expert, nor was he a scholar. But the analysis and explantion of this random man totally made sense to the point of absurdity!

Did I think wrongly of Young Master? This man he randomly picked up seems to be a talent. I am so amazed by my Young Master's great way of thinking!

Eyyy!~ (´ ▽`).。o♡

We are finally on the cultivation-thingy! (eww what a term) hahaha This Junior is forced to make things up with my meager knowledge and comprehension! I am at a loss! (|||゚д゚)

Anyway, it would be nice to receive feedbacks regarding this. I hope I satisfy the standards! (*>.<*)

Have a nice day/night!~(●´∀`)ノ♡
