Chapter 004 One on one

…

Sung Jisoo showed a confused expression as she catches her breath.

She could not help but frown as she feels hesitation as if wanting to kill the bald guy, but also not wanting to kill.

The rules of this world are very clear in her mind. Unlike in her original world where she came from, killing in this world is forbidden and is being outlawed. Only if you have power, or enter a certain agency or governing body, may you be able to have a slight chance to kill without suffering the consequences.

But that too is still conditional and is covered with many kinds of laws of the government of the land.

This is the reason why she suddenly hesitated to kill the bald guy and instead knocks him down.

Suddenly, she noticed the other man shouting at her and charging with a sharp weapon on hand.

Upon seeing the weapon, a slight killing gleam appears in her eyes.

This is because, in a life and death-threatening situation, she is actually allowed to defend herself. And if something has happened and she… 'Accidentally' killed the guy before her, she would not be punished that badly.

"This is not good… My body is still weak right now. I have not even made that much movement and I am already feeling fatigued…" she thought as her mind works quickly for a possible solution in her situation.

When the guy is only a meter away from her, she suddenly lunges forward.

"Crazy bitch!" the ball cap guy shouted as he stabs the knife in his hand towards her chest.

But then suddenly, he feels a sharp stinging pain on his wrist as his hand was whacked by the stick that the beautiful woman is holding.

The knife flew out of his hand which startled him. But this guy is not someone who gives up easily.

When their proximity is close, he suddenly thrust his head on Sung Jisoo's face.

Bam!!!

Their head collided… it surprised Sung Jisoo making her stagger backward while her vision turned a bit blurry and her senses became muddled.

She was quick to react at that time and moved her forehead forward. In that instance, that is the only way for her to protect her eyes which would really be troublesome once they were hit by that attack.

And so their two foreheads collided.

But the guy who did the head-butting seems to have a very hard head making Sung Jisoo's vision turn blurry due to the impact.

The ball cap guy did not hesitate, he grabs one of her shoulders and lifted wanting to throw her to the ground.

But when Sung Jisoo felt his hand and her body being lifted, although her vision is cloudy, her body suddenly reacted.

With a shake of her shoulders and a shift of her body, the grip of the guy loosens.

Feeling a slight pain on his two wrists the guy wanted to jump backward. But then suddenly, he feels a body tumbling in the air and landing in front of him while grabbing his shoulders. Then before he could react, something hard hits his stomach. A strong rippling force traveled from his stomach towards his back.

That strong blow made his large body curve upwards as he lost the air in his lungs.

Then before he could gasp for air, a strong force hit the back of his neck and his consciousness faded.

Sung Jisoo at that time when she was about to be thrown, forcefully turns her body, and using her flexibility, she folded her knee and hit the man's stomach. Then before that guy could recover, she uses her elbows to hit the man's neck.

When the guy fell unconscious on the ground, so did Sung Jisoo as she panted heavily on the ground.

"Gasp! Hah… Hah… Hah… Hihihi… This… this feeling… It… It's been a long time since I felt this way… Hah… Hah… Hihihi…" Sung Jisoo gasped while chuckling like crazy as she lay on the dried leaves-covered ground without a care in the world.

After a few minutes, she lifted her leg in the air and then jump up as she exhaled loudly.

"Hah!"

Then she noticed the dumbfounded young woman standing not too far from her. She suddenly feels a sense of shame in her heart as if she was embarrassed about what she has just done.

"Hihi… Hello!" she said while waving her right hand towards her.

She did not want to bother with the young lady yet as she has to make sure of something first.

She walks to the place where the sharp knife fell and picks it up. Using the knife, she quickly sharpens a few twigs from the ground and then walks towards the two unconscious people.

"Hmm… Killing is not possible. But… if I render them unconscious… then that would not be a crime, right?" she muttered as she kneels down and then using the sharpened sticks pokes some parts on the bald man's body.

If this is done by another person who has no skill, then the skin would rapture and blood would ooze out or the thin stick would break.

However, Sung Jisoo is an expert in using needles. In the Rainbow Wisteria sect, she has befriended a master who is an immortal doctor. And at that time, she is not yet the sect master. That person taught her his skills and she became his assistant for a time.

She has learned a lot from that immortal doctor and has developed her own sets of skills.

But one day, that immortal doctor died in the battle, and before his death, he gave her his legacy. So before she became the sect master, she became the sect's doctor.

So her knowledge with regards to the body is very intricate.

"If the people of this world have a physique just like those in the Talos continent, then… this is the consciousness acupoints…" she muttered to herself as she inserted the stick until it has reached the proper depth.

She smile contentedly at the result and then did the same thing to the ball cap guy. After doing the acupuncture she then drags the two men near the broken tree where she was lying before when she first woke up in this world.

She squatted down and then looks at the two men who are still unmoving on the ground.

"Hihi… This is a test of your fate. I will not kill you… but leave you here in this forest. If you are still alive after 2 days, then that would be your luck… If not, then you cannot blame me for what will happen to the both of you, right?" she said with a wide smile on her face.

Her smiling face is like a bright glow in the dying light of the day.

She then turns her gaze at the young woman not too far from her.

"What's your name?" she asked as she carefully stands up and dusted her clothing.

"I… I am Jing Meilie…" the young woman replied as she walks closer to Sung Jisoo.

"Hello… I… I am Sung Jisoo… Umm… So… so far, that is all I can remember…" Sung Jisoo said as a flash of an idea came to her mind.

Although she has an identity… that identity is something that was created by this world for her. She did not know if it is useful or not but right at this moment, she decided to create a new identity for herself.

And she thought that it would be a good fresh start for her.

She suddenly looks at the two people below. And thought of what would truly happen to them. If they die, then does that mean that she has returned to her old cold self?

"No… I will not let them go because they pose danger to me and the woman. But I will also not kill them… This is just punishing them, right? Hihi…" she thought as she tries to justify her action.

A smile crept on her face as she felt amused by the new feelings. Justifying her own actions? Her, the sect leader, and the most powerful demigod in Talos would justify her actions? That idea truly fascinates her, the more she thinks about it.

But then she suddenly realized something.

"No… That person… That old and emotionless Sung Jisoo is already dead. I am free now… I am free from the bondage of their power… I am free to write my own history now." She thought as a smile broke on her dainty little mouth.

She heaves a deep sigh and then bit her lower lip.

"Umm… Sister Meilie… I… I don't know how to get out of this place… Can… can you help me?" she asked with an innocent expression.

Jing Meilie almost trips on her own two feet upon hearing the words of Sung Jisoo. She did not expect to hear those words from her.

If she has not seen how this woman was able to beat the two large men, she would truly believe how this woman acted.

Her innocent look and her expression are something that she did not expect.

"Is she really amnesiac?" Jing Meilie thought as she observes Sung Jisoo.

Then suddenly, she noticed the blood on her torn skirt and she suddenly feels a bit worried. Somehow, her heart is saying that the woman in front of her is just like her. She too is in a predicament.

The only difference is that this woman is a tiger in sheep's clothing, and she is not.

"Let's head to the direction where I came from… We can take the car those two guys have used…" Jing Meilie said while pointing in a particular direction.

Suddenly, she looks at the two unconscious men.

"How… how about them? Will we just leave them here?" Jing Meilie asked with a hint of concern.

"If you save them and take them with us, and they regained consciousness… what do you think would happen to you and me?" Sung Jisoo suddenly asked with a cold tone.

Jing Meilie suddenly remembers the situation that she was in a while ago. If not for Sung Jisoo before her, she would surely have been ravaged by those two beasts and might even be dead by now.

"Before you show concern to others, make sure that you should be concerned about yourself first…" Sung Jisoo landed the final blow that awaken Jing Meilie to the reality of her situation.

She could not help but nod her head. And then the two women left the two unconscious men in the forest without looking back.

Unknown to Jing Meilie, the two men are already conscious, and they are currently begging for her to not leave them.

They have been awake ever since Sung Jisoo applied the acupuncture and are actually conscious about their surroundings.

They just could not open their eyes much less move their body.
