章節 4: Chapter 3
"Well yes, because today we are having a family dinner. So tonight at the usual time go to the banquet hall; and remember to sit on the right, it will be the second seat to your older brother." Shen Xiu noticed the slight nervousness but ignored it and walked off to meet up with some of her spies.
After all, the boy was going to meet his father for the first time.
Shen Yue continued walking forward but he was noticeably more stiff. He was never much of an actor besides during elementary school doing plays, but thanks to his memories and the wheel inside him he was able to mimic most if not all of Shen Yue's actions.
But nevertheless he was still clueless about the wheel inside of him only thinking that he was reincarnated via the wheel of reincarnation.
``"First day waking up, and I have to be in such a tense situation!"`` Roared Shen Yue in his mind before taking a deep breath and then out relaxing himself a bit.
"Calm down, there isn't much they could fault me for; and no one there knows me well.
Including Aunt Xiu, who although visits it's not enough to completely outs you for being someone else. The only blind spot would be the servants and hopefully they won't be asked many questions.
For now I should head to the library and pick up a couple of books and then after familiarizing myself with the body more head to dinner." Shen Yue thought in his mind as a flash of intelligence sparked in his eye before quickly fading away.
Unbeknownst to himself, his thinking speed increased to an almost unreasonable extent allowing him to even speak, and plan to himself in two seconds or less.
A bit nervous but mostly relaxed Shen Yue arrived at the gigantic library.
It was a deep red and three levels tall, designed with intricate patterns that seemed like they were moving. The Royal blue entrance was held together with four white pillars, that had dragons and tigers sculpted on them going opposite directions wrapped around the pillars.
Despite its large size there were not many people there since those who had access to the library would either be cultivating or hunting down demon spirits for contribution points, resources or library time.
Entering the library he reached into his pocket and showed his token to the elder before walking off into the history section of the library.
Looking around he found nothing he wanted until he arrived at 3 books: the history of the sacred family, the history of glory city and a book on tradition and etiquette.
He then traveled more around the public library getting books that caught his eye and stacked ten of them into a pile near the elder and called for a servant.
``"That should be enough for me to look at for the next few days, but I need to take this a bit slower and start showing a "growing interest" in reading so I would be able to be a bookworm without catching suspicion.
Besides, it's not like someone is going to take note and use that suspicion against me. They are more likely to believe that after my near death experience, I started taking life more seriously so unless someone specifically suspects me for no reason I will be fine."`` Thought Shen Yue to himself again.
Shen Yue, originally wanted to make small talk to the elder in order to get rid of this awkward silence but he ended up realizing that the original Shen Yue wouldn't have bothered.
So he ended up not talking to the elder and just ordered the servant in a cold manner to deliver the books to his study.
``"It's only the first day and I already feel some agony hopefully this tense situation won't happen for much longer. I should exercise in my training yard, before reading the books needed for tonight.
Then, I need to get dressed for the banquet while going over Shen Yue's behaviour, and also his memories. "`` Shen Yue groaned in his mind, reincarnating was almost nothing like he wanted it to be from the anime and comics he read.
When Shen Yue dreamt of Reincarnation he imagined being surrounded by 3000 beauties, face slapping every opponent he came across and ruling over the world until he got bored and went to a new one or maybe even regress to his neet lifestyle.
Work, hard work is what is needed in order to survive in this world.
Arriving at his home he went straight to the training ground and took off most of his clothing besides his pants and hair band that kept his long hair from interfering.
``"Time for some basic conditioning, what I need now is stamina and speed if I can run fast and long enough the enemy won't be able to kill me.
Fighting close up, screw that I rather hit them with an arrow far away. I always played the wizard in rpgs for a reason, and that was for the cool ranged magical powers.
I can't copy that style here very easily but I should at least be able to escape a situation ."`` Thought now the second young master to himself as he started to job around the huge courtyard.
In then out.
In then out.
In then out.
``"To breath is to live."``
Shen Yue took deep breaths as he picked up his pace from jogging around to running around and couldn't help it. He hasn't felt the tightness in the chest or had an asthma attack and thanked whoever sent him there for the chance to live without his limiting condition.
Running might be his new favorite activity but, he was still human and despite the effects the wheel brought to his body he was still tired by the continuous running.
Shen Yue then slowly adjusted his pace, slowing down until he wasn't breathing as hard and his heart wasn't beating as fast. He then did a quick warm up involving pushups, squats, knee raises, mountain climbers and different stretches.
After finishing his warm up, he practiced his horse stance, that is the only thing he knew from martial art's besides boxing theory. Shen Yue's mind was blank, and his muscles were starting to get sore and by the time he finished exercising he had 5 hours to get ready for the banquet.
After taking a shower, and dressing in some simple clothes. Shen Yue cracked open the books on basic etiquette, and Sacred family history; reading each of the books thoroughly and for good measure read a book on basic arithmetic.
Which luckily for himself, the original already went over once in his boredom; but one thing he can say for sure, is that this system of math needs to be changed.
