'Huh, where am I and what happened, wait didn't I get knocked out by that old man before even explaining my proposal' a little snake woke up within a jar obviously confused, but before he could make out what happened an old voice broke his thoughts.
"Oho, you finally woke up good, well then how was your little nap?"
'Wait, aren't you that old man' remembering something the snake suddenly started talking frantically, ' Wait, wait don't kill me yet I didn't even get to start my proposal'
" Well, you don't need to, I already know what your proposal Is going to be about, so I want to change a few things before accepting"
Answering in a skeptical tone the snake said ' And what are the 'few things'?'
" Well you just have to enter a master-servant relationship," the old man said as if it was something normal.
'What no, why would I make that brat my master. I am a Sun Devouring Serpent' obviously made the snake seemed to have forgotten who was more weight in the conversation.
"Hm, don't let your pride get over you and remember who here has more weight, after all, I used to eat your kind for lunch, when I was younger" hearing the snake the old man responded in an indifferent tone.
The snake closed his eyes and started thinking about what the old man said, 'Shit, the old man seemed to be stronger than I thought, or he is a professional con-man, well whatever I'm just going to accept it, for now, it's not like there aren't any techniques to break the pact.'
' I see, well then I accept'
" You made the right decision, well then you can go back and sleep after all you now have a mortal body, and consuming your lifespan definitely isn't good. After all, I wouldn't want my grandson's first pet to die so early" the old man then stood and left the room after uttering those words.
'Sigh, finally, that old man left, well, for now, I should restrain my pride I wouldn't want to anger him for now' suddenly a wave of tiredness came over him and he slept again.
--------
'Heh, does that little snake really think that it would be a normal contract, if it really does I might have to find a better pet for my grandson' the old man was happy right now due to the stupidity of the snake.
-------
Sitting on an empty field, sat a child, not a day older than 7, and an old man who was holding what looked to be a jar?
"Well then Alex, do you remember what I taught you yesterday," said the old man obviously Grandpa Maxwell.
"Yes I do, it was about the meridians and the 8 gates. You also gave me a basic location of each meridian and gate, saying that these are the areas where you channel your Qi. You also taught me about the bones of the body." said Alex.
Responding to his words Grandpa Max said "Hm, well that is good, and today half of it would be about the things I couldn't teach you yesterday and the rest would be physical training, this will be the routine every day for a while"
" Hey, Grandpa why are you so happy at the mention of Physical Training " Alex was genuinely confused at why his Grandfather would get so happy over such a thing.
"Well, you know what they say 'Curiosity killed the Cat'" said Maxwell still maintaining or maybe getting happier?
"Wait Grandpa before you start the lesson what's inside the Jar?" getting curious Alex seemed to have forgotten the phrase his Grandfather uttered a few seconds ago.
"Hey Alex, what did I say about Curiosity just now?"
"It kills the Cat," said Alex, being a little down after forgetting the phrase his Granpa just uttered.
"Don't get down, everyone makes mistakes, but all I will say about the Jar is that it is a surprise."
Hearing those words Alex's mode got better, after all, surprises are always good right?
"Okay then, let's start the lesson, the first thing I will teach you today is the organs of your body, the main focus will be understanding how they work and what they..."
----------
" Ah that old man put me inside a clay Jar this time so I can't even appreciate the surroundings to quell my boredom," said a little snake within the Jar.
"Well I guess I should cultivate a little, my body is too weak after losing three years of my lifespan like that" the snake then closed its eyes and breathed in and out for the next few hours cultivating his Qi.
-------------
Looking at the sun Grandpa Max said " Well then its noon, lets go eat something"
"Okay, will we be doing Physical training after this,"
"Yes, we will, anyways what do you want for lunch?"
"Hm, how about Bison?"
" Ah good idea, we didn't eat Bison for a while now after all, I'm even beginning to miss the taste my self," said Maxwell.
"Okay then Grandpa hurry, I'm getting hungry myself," said Alex, as his stomach growled.
Hearing the growl Maxwell laughed and said: "Haha, okay okay let's stop chattering here and go".
Next chapter Alex meets the snake and gets his little pact.
I won't be showing too much of the MCs for a few chapters but don't worry I got plans, that are hopefully good.
Bye now
