6 Inten (2/2)
However, just as Su Min was breathing a sigh of relief, the book on his lap trembled and shot an invisible strand into Su Min. The strand disappeared right into Su Min's body, and Su Min himself couldn't find where it went. Yet, just as he was about to think he was going insane, his blood began trembling as a newly formed call emerged.
Though no headache emerged from it, and the call itself was so minute that Su Min felt that it posed no threat to him. With this, the call transformed into a force that permeated his whole body, causing pain to ring throughout it. Nevertheless, it wasn't enough to be of any threat to Su Min, so he just waited for it to subside.
After a while, like he passed a trial, the pain across his body dissipated like it had never happened and the call within his blood died down until it couldn't even be felt. But, Su Min was surprised to find that a strand of something had formed in him. It wasn't energy nor was it anything he could explain, but it seemed to carry a unique property that was his only.
It encompassed his body, and without his control, a energy started to emit itself out of it. It causedthe air to minutely shiver around him. The people sitting near him also seemed to feel something as looks of pain emerged on their faces, where they looked around with confusion.
”Why am I suddenly feeling pain?”
”Hey me too! What the hecks happening?!”
At this moment the number plate in his hand started to burn and buzz, wakening him his reverie at the strand in his body. Though the strange strand continued to emit this energy, and like this everyone around him moved away with pained faces.
As Su Min looked at the strand, a piece of information emerged from it. All it said was one word.
'Intent? It's called intent?'
Su Min sighed, and with one last try, the vision of the push emerged from his mind. He saw it the same way, but this time a strange comprehension rang in his mind as the fog that blurred everything dissipated to a degree that allowed him to follow it with some success.
'I feel like I can perform something similar to that push...'
He got up and wandered towards the stage in a daze-like state. Nonetheless, the enlightenment he gained didn't last long as the same fog once again shrouded the push. Although, he now has a deeper understanding of it. It is like he has entered a new level, where even though he can't see any further, he can at least perform the push.
Su Min felt that the push didn't just encompass pushing itself, but everything. He felt that the way he was moving is wrong, so he corrected his stance to a minute degree until he felt that what he was doing was right enough.
It looked like a normal walk to everyone else, and even then they wouldn't think he was walking any differently, but...
*Step*
The old man's closed eyes shivered the instant he heard that step from the injured youth. He opened his eyes in a hurry before a look of confusion overtook them as he rubbed them twice.
”Martial Technique?! That can't be!”
The old man said in disbelief, although nobody could hear him.
...
”He hasn't given up?!”
”I admire his guts at least...”
”Guys make sure to be gentle as I want a turn to get a free win!”
Standing on the stage once again, Su Min breathed deeply as he stretched his muscles whilst following the pushes guidlines. He felt that because he was following the techniques way of moving, everything has become easier to do, like he has improved his efficiency of using his body.
The crowd below him seemed to churn with excitement at the sight of such an easy opponent, and due to this, it didn't take long for a muscular man to jump onto the stage.
His eyes blurred with sympathy when he saw the youth's beaten-up body, which was odd in this bloodthirsty atmosphere. He pondered for a second until he said two simple words,
”Surrender, kid.”
