"Whether or not it is different will depend on our legacy. Do you understand what I mean?"
Chung Myung nodded several times, like a chick pecking at rice. "Of course, I must cut off the heads of those Demon cult bastards in order for our Sect to live well."
Chung Jin sighed. "Chung Myung Sahyung, the Sect Leader wants you to teach the children something so they can learn from you. So Sahyung will leave something behind in the world."
Chung Myung let out an "Ah," full of incomprehension. "But I still think that ending the demon cult will benefit them the most."
"... Anyway, the painting is finished, now it just needs to dry."
"Good job, Chung Jin-ah."
"Ehem," a fake cough came from Chung Myung, who looked at Chung Mun expectantly.
"Yes, of course, you don't have to listen anymore, just think about it, will you?"
Chung Myung looked disappointed at his Sahyung like a bullied puppy. After he stood still and listened carefully to his Sahyung with a lot of effort, he won't get any praise, but Chung Jin will?
Anyway, Chung Myung pulled back, pouting the whole way. Behind him, Chung Jin came out with his scholar's tools, looking a bit tired.
Chung Mun placed the paper on his desk with a weight on the sheet so it wouldn't get ruined. It had taken him enough effort to keep Chung Myung still!
"Anyway," Chung Mun said to himself. "Depending on how the war goes, Chung Myung may become the next Sect Leader, or someone else may. I should leave a few words for my successor, then."
During the time of an incense stick, Hyun Jong watched Chung Mun write delicate characters on the scroll, signing it at the end and letting it dry. Hyun Jong simply enjoyed the peace in the room, which had a different aura from his own office. Perhaps it was because Hyun Jong was looking up at this Sect Leader or—
Wait, Chung Mun was entering into the safe!?
Hyun Jong scrambled to his feet, hot on the heels of the former Sect Leader as he watched his broad back walk confidently down the lighted hallway. Even the structure itself looked different, just like the current Mount Hua, going through a stage of darkness where not even the stars illuminated its path.
When Chung Mun reached the door of the safe with sword marks traced on it, he slowly drew his sword from the scabbard, as if performing a sacred ritual. He greeted towards the door, in the starting combat stance before beginning to trace the cracks in the door with the point of his sword.
Hyun Jong recognized the simpler forms of the sword, however as the petals began to sprout from the tip of the metal blade, wonder washed over him. Hyun Jong shouldn't blink, he couldn't afford to miss a single move. This was the guide of his ancestors, a last ray of light in the darkness.
With a heavy sound, the doors slowly opened in front of his eyes as the sword was sheathed.
... A long time later, Chung Myung came to a Mount Hua Sect that was not in such a bad condition, even if the talent was just under mediocrity and the total strength of the Sect was not much.
Looking at the face of this young disciple, the elders couldn't help but notice the similarity to a certain portrait.
Even more so, Hyun Jong, who had witnessed the Plum Blossom Sword Saint's mannerisms and whiny way of speaking.
Even if he didn't say it out loud, Hyun Jong believes that this boy must be the reincarnation of Chung Myung.
He just has that feeling.
