Kapitel 3: Cramps. Just Cramps.

"Uhh, Master." Chang Mei Hua whispers as she sits across from him at her desk.

Yu Long sits across from her in a plush velvet couch. His posture elegant if you disregard the fierce tapping on the phone.

"Master?" She stands right in front of him. In a way, it hurts how she a pretty girl is ignored by her master, but on the other hand, he did get to see her mature. He had seen each of her most shameful moments, therefore, it shouldn't be a surprise he was immune to her charms.

"Correct and it is quite a disgrace to our Ancestors if we chose to date." He replied to her thoughts instantly.

Yu Long had a monstrous soul force that allows him to read the mind of others in the same hemisphere as him. But usually, the thoughts were stupid so he blocked them out. However, this ability made learning about the new environment far easier.

Thanks for crushing this disciple's dreams. She thought. Also what Ancestors! You are the Ancestor! You don't have Ancestors!

Sadly, these thoughts did not make it to Yu Long as played around with the phone.

"Xiao Mei, you never responded to my previous question. Why are men cultivating the Golden Lotus Arts?" He shot a pointed gaze at her.

"Uhh. Master! I have a request!" Chang Mei Hua quickly switched the topic. "It is about my name."

"Your name?"

She nodded her head. "Master, we are in the 21st century and living in this country called the United States of America or the USA for short. Here, I don't use my Chinese name. Instead, I'm called May."

Yu Long gave her an expectant gaze.

"I want Master to call me May in public. It is my name here. May Chang."

Yu Long hummed in acknowledgment.

"Master, as we are in a different time period I believe calling you Master Yu Long is inappropriate since we are in an English speaking country. Is there a different name Master wouldn't mind being called?"

"Dragon."

"Eh?" She stared at him with dazed eyes. "Dragon?"

"It is my name is it not? Long is dragon in English?" He swiped at the colorful candies on the screen. "Unless you want to call me Carefree Dragon?"

May quickly shook her head no. "However, Dragon is quite an untraditional name."

"I heard about some girl whose dad was named Dragon."

"I'll just call you Yu Long." May sighed as she fiddled with a strand of hair. "So Ma- Yu Long, I think you need some new clothes."

Yu Long looked up from the phone as she rambled on about the 21st-century culture.

"May, none of this explains why men are cultivating the Golden Lotus Arts."

Master uses awkward statement. May is stunned. It's super effective.

May bites her lip. Her hands scrunching up her designer clothes. "Yu Long, in this day and age, there aren't many females willing to join my Sect anymore. In this modern age, your status doesn't completely depend on your physical abilities. You could earn a living by being smart. So females are opting for the route that uses their brains and not their body. So the only way for my Sect to thrive is to allow males to cultivate the Golden Lotus Arts."

"May, the Golden Lotus Arts are meant for women with Ying energy. Males have more Yang energy than Ying, there will be consequences. What has exactly happened to the males?"

"They've begun to feel cramps about once a month." May looked at the floor like it was the most interesting thing in the world.

"So they are having those?" Yu Long trails off.

May's face turns a bright red. "Of course not! They just feel the cramps!" She shook her head so hard her hair spills all over her face.

"Are you certain?"

May takes a deep breath. "Yes, Master. Cramps. Just cramps. Only cramps."

Yu Long looks at May in the eye. "So about my clothes. What exactly is wrong with wearing my robes?"

"You look like a cosplayer." May picks her phone out of his grasp and looks up cosplay on a search engine who shall not be named to avoid copyright. "Cosplaying is pretending to be a character from something."

"An imposter?"

"No!"

"A fake?"

"No."

"An identity thief?"

May sighs and rubs her forehead. "The point is everyone out there thinks you are pretending to be someone from the ancient times which is why I need to get you normal clothes."

"I am from the ancient times."

"Master please be cooperative at the mall."
