The World We Do Not Know 31 The Tes

In the past, Faust came across the sight of Yang teaching something to Tim which seemed to be some kind of move that involved in Tim charging at Yang and trying to land a hit on Yang in close combat. Faust is very much impressed by the style and the way Tim moves in this martial arts.

"Grandpa Yang! I also want to learn with Tim. Will you please teach me along with him?" Faust storms into the training place and asks Yang eagerly while he is training Tim.

Yang is struck with displeasure, the face of the grumpy old village chief turned really ugly. "Faust this art only pa.s.ses down in my family, I would never even in my dreams think to pa.s.s the art of kyusyozyutu to an outsider. Don't ask me again." Yang scolds Faust sternly and asks him to leave from the door that he came from.

Faust despite being rejected by Yang, peeks into the training and the movements that Tim is practicing, and that day later he goes home to practice the moves he saw from Tim. Yang who is aware that Faust is peeking on the training of Tim everyday, doesn't seem bothered as he knew that the art is extremely tough to learn on one's own without a proper guidance under a well versed master. Without the knowledge of vital points, pressure points and meridians of one's body, this martial art is just like throwing random punches in air and so later on Faust lost the interest in practicing and training alone and stopped going to the training grounds of Yang and Tim.

*Present*

After the incident with the wolves, Gus, who is still recovering in hospital reveals to Yang that Faust is somehow special in his own way. Gus mainly tells Yang about Faust landing a hit on the wolf as if he teleported, it also piqued the interest of Yang however, he is still not convinced as to teaching his martial arts to Faust.

Yang wanted to test Faust himself and take him in if he feels like if Faust could be a good successor to the martial arts he is trying to pa.s.s down to Tim, maybe Faust could be a  better one than Tim as Yang thought to himself carefully.

And so Yang and Tim visit Faust after he was out of hospital.

"Faust, Gus want me to teach you the martial arts form that you were fascinated with a year ago." Yang told Faust.

"I see." Faust sadly thought to himself *"even after all this, I'm still being defended by grandpa."*  He looks down to the ground and tries to stop himself from crying in front of Tim and Yang.

"But I'm not convinced with what Gus told me, I need to see your talent with my own eyes or I cannot train you." Yang coldly states the bitter truth and doubt.

"So after six weeks from now, you and Tim will have a spar against each other while me and Gus will watch your fights and give you our results. A martial art using hand combat is equal to an eternal treasure. It is not something you can learn easily. So to gift you such powerful skill, I'm going to make sure that you have what it takes." Yang says to Faust and Tim.

This  leaves Faust with lots of doubts in his head as to why he have to spar with his own friend,Tim? Him and Tim are good friends and he doesn't want them both to fight and end up with either of them getting hurt. The feeling is mutual for Tim as well.

"So for basic, train your body and harden your wrists, knuckles, legs and shin." Yang continues telling Faust about his deal and he ignore the feelings of the two boys as their eyes appear with doubts and sadness.

"Uh, huh? Ahh grandpa Yang! Oh I have a question to ask you" Faust pauses for a few minutes and he wonders how to exactly ask the questions he just said he need to ask. *"How the h.e.l.l am I supposed to train my body and make it strong?"* Is the question that Faust have in his mind for Yang.

Yang realizing what was in Faust's head says "You can try punching a sand bag filled with heated sand which makes your skin harden and your arms stronger." Yang gives him an advice.

"Thank you both." Faust says while he bows his head low and heads back to home to start the training as soon as possible once Yang told him what to do.

And so Faust has been training his body for 6 weeks straight to make himself stronger and each day his determination grow as he continues to thrives.

After 6 weeks, Gus is finally discharged from the hospital, but is not able to walk without the two clutches and people from the hospital a.s.sist him and Bella to their house.

Both Gus and Bella are covered in bandages in the areas they received fatal wounds in. Faust with enthusiasm comes running out of the house after he realizes who the old man and the dog are as they continues toward his house. And he rushes to hug Bella and Gus whom he met after the first time in 6 weeks.

But Gus is in loss of words as he is shocked to see Faust looking so different then he last saw him.

Faust has become so thin than he normally is. His eyes are decorated with dark circles around them and you can also see the puffiness under each of his eyes causing his eye bags to swell . It is as though Faust has not eaten or slept from these past 6 weeks and his bones are clearly visible through his fragile body.

"What have you done to yourself Faust!?" Gus asks Faust with disbelief and grief. Gus is not taking this well as his only grandson, who he had nursed ever since be was a tiny little baby, is looking so bad like he hasn't been taking care of him as a good grandpa should. He was bitterly heartbroken.
