I gazed distantly at the stairs visible over my master’s shoulder, wondering how I would have to climb them again. All the while, my master did not slow down his steps and was making his way through the mountain path.

At the end of the mountain trail, when we turned a bit to the side, a path appeared that was somewhat “walkable.” At that point, my master also set me down again, so I eagerly followed him one step behind.

How long had we been walking? Soon a steep uphill path appeared before my eyes. I had a bad feeling, and I hesitated for a moment when my master’s question reached my ears.

“This place has no name, as it is not high. Can you see the summit?”

Is this low? Really?

I became a little more alarmed and affirmed.

“I can see it.”

Looking up at my master, he gave instructions with an indifferent expression.

“Keep your mind calm, breathe evenly, and make your strides as consistent as possible. I, your master, will be waiting for you up there, so try to climb to the summit before the sun sets.”

…Ah, is this really happening?

(This is a time separator.)

After the first day of training, I had been repeating the same schedule for about 3 months.

During that time, the season had quietly transitioned from spring to summer.

I would get up early in the morning to practice breathing techniques, and in the afternoon, I would build the physical strength needed to hold a sword before climbing… mountain climbing.

And it was not just any climbing; it was something particularly tough for a child with short legs. But I had not forgotten what my master had said on the first day.

“Keep your mind calm, breathe evenly, make your strides as consistent as possible.”

If I were just a normal 12yearold, I might have completely disregarded whatever my master said and followed what was comfortable for my body.

But my mind was that of an adult, after all.

‘Besides, in martial arts novels, a master wouldn’t just give his disciple any random advice, right…?’

Whether I should call it knowledge not from this place, or the rules of this possessed novel… genre, I decided to exert adult patience since I somewhat knew these things.

‘Well, I don’t feel anything specific.’

But that’s how life goes, so I just continued. Something will happen someday. Now that I’ve built up some stamina, it’s much more manageable.

On the first day, my legs gave out at the summit, and my master carried me back down to the gate of the mountain, but now I was able to climb the ‘staircase that I still suspect was not made for walking, but is the only path, so I have no choice but to use it’ and enter the mountain gate on my own feet!

‘…How did it come to this, feeling proud of such a thing?’

I shook my head lightly and sat down, taking my place in the middle of the practice room.

Early morning. As it had been until now, it was time to start the day.

I calmed my mind and began to meditate. It was a process of selfdiscipline before practicing breathing techniques.

Even though I was using someone else’s body, which should have become familiar, I still felt strangely unfamiliar to myself.

‘Maybe I feel this way because I look at myself like this every day.’

Actually, beyond the unfamiliarity, I sometimes felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort, and there were times when it made me feel bad. However, since I didn’t want to delve too deeply into it, I was pretending not to notice whenever I felt it.

If it had benefits to dig into, I might have, but my instinct rang a bell. Finding out now wouldn’t help. So it was better to shake it off quickly.

I had to invest in grasping enlightenment if there was time to think.

‘Actually, it’s a bit vague to call it enlightenment…’

I just continued to practice, and there were moments when something would suddenly come to mind.

The subtlety contained in the breathing method, the meaning encapsulated in the stance, how it harmonizes with this body, such things.

It might have been something I, who use my head, realized on my own, or perhaps it was something I had seen in ‘that book,’ the title of which I still could not remember, and now it sparkled and floated to the surface like this.
Anyway, if it’s the former, I’m proud of it, and even if it’s the latter, in a broad sense, enlightenment is enlightenment.

But if I don’t immediately catch it in that instant it arises and dig to the end, it disperses quickly as if it never came to mind. From the beginning, it wasn’t easy to catch and dig into it.

It was as if someone deliberately swept away my thoughts with a broom.

Once I missed it like that, I had to concentrate as much as possible because I couldn’t remember what it was, even if I thought about it.

When my mind was completely peaceful, and the chirping of the birds coming through the small window did not bother me, I slowly raised my inner strength and started to circulate it according to the way of the six unions.

When I first started, there was a little hesitation, but now the inner strength flowed smoothly along the path without such parts.

Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she

really disliked him

Short intro:

What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.

Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.

Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!

She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.

*

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.

This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!

***

Synopsis:

Before transmigrating, Shen Yaoxing only wanted to find a reliable man to spend her life with. Who knew that after transmigrating, she would become a reliable woman herself…

A forced misandrist, highly skilled, and reliable female lead

vs.

An initially aloof and arrogant, later morbid, obsessed male lead
