Into the World of Manwha (Eleceed Fanfic)

Chapter 22

X/16/1X

It's been awhile since I've written in this journal again. It feels rather...odd but, firstly, I'm no longer in middle school, by next week, I'll be in high school. Although I won't be a freshman nor a sophomore. The school and the teachers tested my knowledgeable ability. I happened to surpass every grade but fell just at the Senior level. So, I'll be the youngest senior student within the academy. There have been rumors going around about my transfer as well as my...looks. Really, the only reason I was able to surpass everything despite being in a competitive educational system, is because our father taught me everything I needed to know 2 years ago. When I first met him.

Before, I couldn't break through his weakest barrier, thus the start of my training doubling in levels. But now, as a young 15 year old, father told me I can easily beat 90% of the awakened ones of his world. I've come to break his strongest barrier in under 24 hours. Even so, our fathers health is now showing visible signs of deterioration. He's not getting any better despite the amount of research I'm doing to help him live a little longer.

It'll improve but get even worse afterwards. It...it scares me. These 2 years of training with him have shown me just how great of a father he is. But knowing our father will pass, if not today, tomorrow, if not tomorrow, next year, at any time. Scares me. Sehyun has yet to meet him, let alone ever seeing him as a father, but for me, he's proved himself. Protecting us in the state he is in while accepting the fact we could hate him for the rest of our lives, is not easy. Nothing he's done has been an easy decision.

Which is why, I'm debating on giving him some of my life essence. Something I happened to find out about after experimenting with this thing he calls, "force control". Force control holds the impossibility of making greater aspects of an awakened one's ability. It can create the things that we, as humans, could only imagine into reality. I may be too young to understand the full implications of force control, so, as of now, and as my last journal entry of my middle school life of meeting the one father we have, I give you my future research regarding force control and the things I've found out during my high school life. And, quite possibly, my university life.

Sehyun, I ask you to keep whatever is written within my 4th journal as hushed as you possibly can. Burn it, if you wish. I'm young right now. But the more I learn and the older I get, I know how dangerous it'll be for you to learn from my research. Our fathers life is the only reason I'm considering diving deeper into this force control, awakened ones, supernatural powers rabbit hole.

This, and the very possibility of making you, my younger brother, an awakened one as well. This is something both father and I have decided after a long time of debating. Once we learn how to safely awaken you, we will have to keep you in the dark a little longer. Please understand.

Then, see you in the next journal, my adorable little dongsaeng. From here on out, it'll be quite the bumpy ride.

...

That was the last journal entry in hyungs 2nd journal. Although I have been training with hyungs 3rd, more like a training manual, but without proper explanation or demonstration, as well as the fact I have no sparring partner to practice on, I've halted in my progress. So, as I sat here finishing up my hashbrowns and eggs, I came to a conclusion. I'll use the upcoming amounts of sparring matches in the future to figure out what I need to work on. To figure out what I'd do differently in a fight. How I'd do it. Predict the movements of the other person. And more. After all, it's not like I can just hop in asking for an awakened one to give me their best shot knowing well I'm seen as a regular human.

That and...

I looked to Inhyuk who also finished his plate then to Seongha who did the same. Both chatting for a little bit. Giwook mentioned a test that managers-in-training have to take. Yet, I never heard of it let alone was told I had to take a test in it. I clenched my hands into fists. They decided for me. They, once again, used Kains fathers influence to get me a position that could've been better used for someone who truly deserved it. For the first time, I felt extremely disappointed in Inhyuk and Seongha. Was Kains  father so powerful that Shinhwa practically bowed down to his every whim? When I first met him, he was intimidating but not to the point of doing anything and everything for him.
