บท 7: Chapter 6
Book I Chapter 6
…
Hyuna is spending her time lifting weights as usual.
Though she is just a mortal, after a few years of practice she is now able to lift 25 kg of weight.
Her young muscles are now showing firmness on them, and she showed strength incomparable to a normal mortal kid.
While exercising her muscles, she is also reading some of the text in her mind subconsciously.
While looking at those techniques and movements, she felt a bit curious as it is not like the ones taught by Il Kwan. The one taught by Il Kwan contains movements that would make the Qi in one's body flow smoothly and upon executing the technique it would make one's body strong and sturdy at the same time creating powerful Qi energy.
But such a movement is not applicable to Hyuna as she could not wield Qi as a mortal.
Hence, such a technique would become just a dance in her case and not a fighting technique.
However, the ones in the manual she has in her mind are something that is more practical and direct. She could even say that it is a systematic approach to learning martial techniques.
One of the things she has begun practicing is the mental calculation of engagement distance.
According to the manual, this type of ability once mastered would create a domain of control for that person.
As long as the enemy is within that domain of control one can unleash as many devastating attacks as one desired.
The attacks, it has three parts. The first one is long-range. These kinds of attacks are delivered when an enemy reached the edge of one's engagement distance. The second one is the middle-range attacks. The middle-range attacks have plenty of techniques that involve different parts of the body.
The last one is the close range. Close-range attacks include three things, the strike, the grapple, and the takedowns.
As she busily learns these combat techniques, she could not help but admire the person who created such intricate techniques.
Everything is systemized and tailored for those that do not have Qi in their body.
However, as she reads and combines the learning she has with Il Kwan, she noticed that if these attacks are combined with Qi, then they would be more devastating and deadly.
As she watches the practice of the people in front of her, she could not help but imagine in her mind how to counter such moves.
"Their movements have a lot of openings…" she thought.
That afternoon, her Aunty Jin-ah did not call her to practice instruments as the Outer Sect female disciples have a cultivation meeting and assessments.
So she was left on her own and decided to stay inside her old courtyard.
As her mind was filled with learning the technique the whole day, she was quickly engrossed in moving her body according to those fighting movements.
With her morning exercises and stretching, she could easily mimic the stances and the strikes she had seen in the book inside her mind.
"Let's try the long-range attacks."
Of course, when talking about long-range attacks, most of them use the legs. Using her long and slender legs, she kicked high up in the air almost making her leg split.
Then she delivers a powerful roundhouse kick which created a strong-sounding gale that blew the curtains hanging on the windows.
She practiced multiple types of kicks which made her look like a powerful mantis striking its strong and sharp legs.
The ground even created a slight dent as she finishes the techniques she followed in her mind.
Then she positioned herself in another stance that looks nimble and then uses her arms to punch the air.
Each punch is fast and successive with a clear-cut target and trajectory.
The air seems to have been split by the power of each strike she delivers making it not just some simple punch.
Soon, she suddenly stopped and heaved a deep sigh as she catches her breath.
Thick beads of sweat formed on her forehead and her sackcloth robe began to be wet showing a muscular body.
She walked to the side and picks up a towel and wipes her sweat with it.
She then walked to the bathroom behind the small room and carefully washes away her sweaty body creating steam.
At this time, Il Kwan was walking just outside the courtyard and wanted to surprise his friend.
"What is Wu Jin doing right now…" he muttered as he took a peek at the old but well-cleaned courtyard.
As soon as he did, he saw steam coming out from the bathroom behind the room.
An evil grin appears on his face as he sneakily tiptoed to the side of the short wall and carefully unlocks the gate of the courtyard.
A low creaking sound could be heard as the old wooden gate opens.
Soon, the figure of Il Kwan showed an evil expression as he tiptoed like a thief while entering the grounds and then he soon reached the wall of the small room. He has been playing this prank on his friend and he would always get a good laugh at his scared expression.
Right now, he is already imagining the reaction of his friend if he suddenly scared him.
Leaning on it, his body slowly slid towards the steaming bathroom as his evil grin grew wider.
He carefully takes a stool from the side and then positioned it near the door of the bathroom.
Then he slowly stood up and then peeks inside.
As he adjusted his eyes inside the thick mist, he was immediately stunned.
What he saw first is a tender-looking snow-white back and a perfectly long-shaped neck that should belong to a beautiful young woman.
The eyes of Il Kwan went wide as his expression turned into a dumbfounded one. He subconsciously swallowed a large amount of saliva as he watches with bathed breath.
He has not seen such a thing since young and it is the first time he has seen such a beautiful scene.
Then the head slowly tilted to the side which exposes the beautiful curves of a woman's face with her hair tied in a bun.
The action, and the gentleness, of the person inside the bathroom… truly mesmerize him. It petrified him upon seeing such a beauty.
He suddenly remembers one of the nightly outlandish actions of the male disciples in the sect when they would secretly watch the female disciples take baths in the spring behind the female courtyard.
What he is seeing right now is the same gentle movements of those female disciples that astonished him.
"Who's there?!" the beauty shouted in a beautiful voice.
He suddenly saw a startled expression from the beauty inside the bathroom which made him realize that he was caught by the person.
In his panic, he slips from the chair and fell on the ground butt first.
He quickly stood up, but the door opened which pushes him to the side as his face directly hits the tree.
"Who… Who are you?!" shouted Hyuna as she has already partially covered her body with her robe while holding a wooden stick in hand.
Il Kwan rubbed his nose as he felt a stinging pain.
Though his body is strong, it does not mean he could not be hurt anymore.
As he turns around and wanted to escape he heard a familiar voice.
"Senior Kwan?… What are you doing?" Hyuna asked.
Il Kwan slowly turns around with a blush on his face and looks at the woman.
But when he saw that it was actually Hyuna, he showed disbelief in his eyes.
He suddenly showed a suspicious look in his eyes. Instead of running away, he quickly walked and looked inside the bathroom.
"Where… Where is that beautiful girl?" he asked showing dejection in his expression.
"What… girl?" Hyuna asked showing a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
"Oh, come on… Junior Jin. I already know that you are keeping some beauty in here with you… where is she?" she asked while looking inside the bathroom.
When he saw that his friend Wu Jin is also wet and had his robe still open on his chest, he suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face.
At this time, Wu Hyuna is feeling a bit worried as it seems that Il Kwan had seen her take her clothes off.
He did not know how much this fool have seen, but it made her feel a bit shy as her body was seen by a man. Though this happened a couple of times before, this time something is different.
Though she now has a male body, deep inside she is still a woman. So, discovering that someone has seen her body made her feel dejected and angry at the same time.
It was a feeling of every female when someone sees them half-naked or fully naked.
She even is worried that Il Kwan might have seen her lower parts.
This is because, most of the time, she would erase that part of the rune array in her palm as she felt uncomfortable with it dangling freely below.
And she is not used to going to the bathroom using it.
So right now, though her upper body is that of a man, her lower part is that of a woman, and that is the one she is afraid that Il Kwan might have discovered.
As the expression of Il Kwan changes animatedly her heart began to beat rapidly.
She even feels afraid that the fool might really have discovered her secret and would tell this secret to his father. If that happens then her life might become more troublesome, and she might not be able to protect the secret that her mother wanted her to protect.
As she looks at Il Kwan walking towards her, she subconsciously covered her body and showed a worried expression on her face.
"You… It was… You… right?" Il Kwan muttered while pointing his finger at Hyuna while shaking it.
