"Kim, were you hesitating to take out that pill before?" Yeosho noticed something and asked. Kim had already taken the pill and his body was slowly recovering.
Kim hesitated to reply.
"Silly, I only got a single punch and it wasn't that power either. Unlike me, you got your face broken. If you had asked me to take that pill, I would've smashed your head."
Yeosho said as she slowly tried to sit. But, her head was still feeling heavy. So, she was having a hard time doing so.
She tore her sleeve and started cleaning his face.
"You know, I might never become a martial artist. I don't have that much Willpower to go through that much suffering to become a martial artist. But, you are different."
"You have been suffering for years now. You don't see martial art as suffering but instead, feel excited. You always told me that you were envious of me because my meridians weren't blocked."
"That's when I knew that if you ever get a chance to become a martial artist, you won't hesitate. But, it always worried me as well."
When he heard her words, he wasn't surprised. Naturally, the life of a martial artist would be dangerous. If you just stay at your home and live a normal life, you would get a chance to die normally.
But, things weren't the same with the martial artist. Even if they die, they die fighting someone.
"I won't ask you to stop becoming a martial artist. In fact, this might be the only way you would be able to convince my parents. But, I really want you to make me a promise."
"Please, never try to sacrifice yourself for me!"
When she said that, Kim looked at her with a sad expression. It was naturally impossible for him to stop himself from saving her. She was his first woman. She was his only woman.
How could he watch her die or suffer? He clenched his fist and just when he tried to explain, she spoke.
"Because I won't be able to sacrifice myself. You can save me, putting your life on the line but I can never do the same. I told you I can't become a martial artist. I am scared of going through all that hardship."
"So, I won't be able to fight for you. That's why I don't want you to fight for me, especially a fight where you won't have a chance of winning."
"That's impossible." Kim roared. His hand held her hand. He was trembling. He started to shutter.
"I can't lose you. I don't want to lose you. I don't want to be alone. I don't want to live a life like that. I don't want to lose anyone close to me anymore. So, please don't say that!"
It wasn't just him. It was also his character. Both had similarities. Both lived alone. Both suffered alone. Both enjoyed alone. Both survived alone.
So, when they finally merged, they were finally no longer alone. They met a person who finally embraced them. Kim still couldn't forget his thoughts before he got that kiss.
He was still hoping for rejection. He still believed that he would be rejected.
But, a single acceptance changed him. He didn't become a better man but he did change from a total loser to a half-loser.
"But!" Yeosho tried to speak but Kim quickly kissed her lips, and stopped herself from saying anything.
After half an hour,
"Yeosho! Yeosho! Yeosho!"
Two different voices came from the surroundings. After a minute, two middle-aged people eventually came to the place where Kim and Yeosho were sitting.
The middle-aged man was quite tall and had a lean body. His eyes were black just like Yeosho. He had a goatee and short hair.
The middle-aged woman was a bit shorter than average. She also had a lean body and her face looked exactly like Yeosho's. Her black hair was tied behind her back.
"Oh my god! Yeosho"
Mr. And Mrs. Nomu saw the three dead bodies and blood all around Yeosho and Kim.
"Daughter, what happened? Your face…." Mrs. Nomu reached next to her daughter and saw a fist mark on her face, her expression changed.
"Kim, what in the hell was happening here?" Mr. Nomu unlike his wife looked at the dead bodies and shouted at Kim.
Kim had barely recovered. His face was cleared as well. But, there was a cloth covered in blood next to him. He looked at Mr. Nomu and explained the entire situation.
After hearing the entire story, Mr. Nomu and Mrs. Nomu were shocked. Mrs. Nomu couldn't let go of her daughter's hand even for a little out of fear.
Mr. Nomu took a deep breath and lowered his head.
"Thank you for protecting my daughter!"
"Please, don't do this. I would've regretted my whole life if I hadn't done anything." Kim quickly stood up and pushed his chest up.
Mr. Nomu wanted to ask more but he kept his mouth shut and said.
"Then, we will take our daughter back. Can you walk on your own?"
"Don't worry, I have recovered. Please take care of her!"
Kim bowed as he answered.
Mr. Nomu clenched his fist. He wasn't satisfied with Kim before but right now, Kim saved his daughter's life. Of course, he didn't know that Kim had already done a lot with her.
They didn't plan to tell them that.
Mr. Nomu and Mrs. Nomu turned around and walked away with Yeosho. But, at this moment, Yeosho stopped and turned around. She put her hand inside her bra and took out a mushroom-shaped green herb.
"I came here for this. Take it tonight."
Kim looked at the herb with surprise. It was the herb that Yeosho found in the mountain which started the other quest. But, now that quest had already been activated through the previous quest.
"Thanks!"
Kim didn't reject it. After all, if she wasn't going to use it, then it would be better in his hand. After that, she finally left with her parents.
Kim finally walked up to the corpses of three brothers. Their skin had turned blue and seemed to be a bit corroded as well. He searched through their bodies without touching them directly.
He didn't find much in the bodies of the second and third brothers. But, inside the first brother's cloth, there was a book. He picked up the book and looked at the title.
[Metal Breathing Technique]
'Interesting! Now that I think about it, I never checked their martial technique. It wasn't a normal technique after all. All the techniques in the level one shop are basic techniques.'
'Breathing Techniques are one level higher than normal techniques since they allow a person to gather internal energy without moving their body. Although Breathing Techniques also come under the Martial Technique, that guy told me to keep it separated.'
'Haa! Well, at least I got this technique now. With Breathing Technique, I wouldn't need to train my martial techniques days and nights to condense internal energy inside my body.'
'Hmmm! That would be awesome but I also need Harem Points. I can't lag behind on that. Although I am not sure how I am going to do it without those skills, I should be able to get a new skill from the new quest, right?'
"Open Quest"
[Quest- Save the Princess
Description- Two days later the princess of Asura Race would be kidnapped by a group of Martial Masters. Save the princess to win over her heart and Asura Race's support.
Quest Reward- 200 Harem Points, Emperor's Eyes, Battle Spirit Awakening, and Heavenly Asura Blade
Quest Punishment- Death of Princess
Quest Time- Two Days]
'Actually! I can reject this quest and play safe. The only problem with this is that only through this quest, I can get what I want.'
'Emperor's Eyes! It is a skill that would cost over five hundred dollars to buy. But, it's worth the cost. Once a person gets these eyes, he could easily pursue others to his bidding without any kind of difficulty.'
'This can't make women lustful toward the person but it certainly makes them loyal. I have to get this especially if I want to create a harem. Fuck! Girls are jealous if their boyfriends even talk to other girls.'
'Otherwise, why would Yandere exist? They are basically girls who have ten or a hundred times more obsession than normal girls. Naturally, if I met someone like that, it would be disastrous for me.'
'Without Harem, I can't earn Harem Points. That's why even though I kissed Yeosho many times today, I only earned the Harem Points from that first kiss.'
'If I want to earn more Harem Points, I have to do all that with different women on the same day. How can you do it if your women don't like the idea of you having another woman?'
'You have to cheat. Obviously, cheating can't be done openly, or else, that wouldn't be considered cheating. And, so this isn't cheating. Using my eyes to convince them isn't cheating.'
Kim slowly put his hand on his chin and thought.
'But.... I don't know how to impress a girl.'
