The World We Do Not Know 33 Spar

Before Tim snaps back from the shock he sees Faust again trying to land a kick on him from below.

Time rolls back and gets back on his feet before Faust's kick can reach him.

"Hehe, that was good Faust. I never expected you would be doing your comical trickery fights. But ok I will respond back with the same pa.s.sion." Tim says while taking his stance. "But you won't be able to reach me anymore." Tim is finally serious.

His stance itself is pretty impressive. His left legs was behind him and slightly bended while his right foot is in front. He was focusing his balance on his left foot, his right feet slightly float in air easy to move around or attack. In addition to his two upper limbs which can already attack and block. His right arm also acted like his hand in defending moves or punches from below.

Faust again, dashes forward and throws punches which Tim blocks easily using his wrists and elbows, deflecting Faust's punches.

The martial art moves of Tim looked very well crafted than Faust's, whose standing stance itself is unbalanced and there is no change of power from his lower body to upper body when landing a punch. Yet Yang's eyes are wide open and are glittering with admiration for Faust.

*"Is it a coincidence or did he really just aimed for the heart meridian of Tim?"* Yang quietly whisper to himself.

Every punch from Faust is not a clean hit, but he is aiming his punches in the central line of point that is on nose, on throat and on heart. Only central focused punches. If one punch if  made a contact, it would definitely close the heart meridian of Tim.

Yang seemed more focused on Faust to see if Faust just is just throwing punches or is he targeting the meridian.  *"Is it just a coincidence luck or did he figure out the martial arts."* Yang is getting excited to see Faust's moves, expecting him to do some uniqueness.

Faust tries to land more blows on Tim who is just evading all the punches with ease without having a need to fight back. And Faust tire fully falls forward while stretching his legs trying to reach Tim.

"Heh, I thought you said you want to prove yourself and get rid of the guilt, but guess you were all talking and no work huh?" Yang mocks Faust with his words intentionally

*"Dammit!!!!"* The words really hurt Faust to his core. He b.a.l.l.s his fist in fury and gets back up on his feet to try and land a hit again.

Faust keeps failing to land a blow and Yang keeps mocking Faust. Faust looses his focus and foot on every insult Yang throws at Faust.

In the end, Faust just lays on the ground with his face covered with dust and his head buried in the ground and cries.

"Faust! The fear you feel makes you brave if you can overcome it and the pain you feel will make you stronger if you endure it. Learn to fail, make new mistakes and learn from them" Gus shouts to Faust in a cheering tone.

Faust gets up on his feet slowly while wiping his tears. Those tears were not tears of cowardice or helplessness, this time they were the tears of not being able to do anything and feeling worthless.

*"My element of surprise has been used up already in my first attack. I don't have any more aces up in my sleeves. Nor am I as fast as Tim to evade. But I have seen most of the moves now. I might be able to do this."*Faust muddles to himself determinedly.

Faust carefully recalls the foot movements of Tim. The way he was moving fast, the spins, the body balance and the defence and strike at the same time.

*"This time, I'm going to do it"* Faust thinks to himself and charges forward towards Tim once again.

Blocking and evading Faust is easy until now for Tim, but this time somewhere in his head Tim is having a feeling that Faust is catching up to him. The round house kicks, hand movements, blocking every move of Tim's with his wrists and blocking and guiding away the punches of Tim with the back of his fists and with every move, Faust is looking as if he is imitating Tim. It's is almost Tim is fighting himself in the mirror, perplexed.

*"What is this? Is this really someone who doesn't know the martial arts? His moves are suddenly sharp and matching Tim's. Did he just learned those moves while watching Tim move on the ground just now? This is Impossible yet miraculous!" Yang thinks in his head loudly as he keep getting more surprised by Faust's abilities.

*Bam!!~~*

It's a hit on Tim.

"This is bad, Tim has got hit on a particular meridian of the heart, his meridian will be closed and it is life threatening! His all working meridians will be closed now!" Yang's face becomes creased with a sense of tense and danger in his voice. He's worried for Tim, but then at the same time he still want to know what Faust got with his skills.

"Huh? Hahaha You got me Faust." Tim laugh and smiles at Faust naturally.

Faust did not hit the meridian, he just tapped Tim after getting close to Tim. This is what his intentions were all this while. To just touch Tim as a tap after getting close to Tim.

"I don't want to hurt those that I meant to protect." Faust says and withdraws with a sense of relief and happiness.

He doesn't wanna continue spar anymore, he reached his goal and that was more than enough for Faust to prove himself. A satisfactory smile graced his lips as he accomplished his goal.

"Gus! Did you notice it too? The level of understanding and grasping everything after witnessing it for just his first time is amazing and he implemented them in a minute. Your grandson turned out a genius!" Yang makes an excited statement in astonishment.

"Faust, please become a student of mine and let me teach you." Yang walks up to Faust and requests him politely as if he could never get a student like Faust and teaching this style to Faust.

"Please take care of me master." Faust agrees and  willingly nods with a bright smile.

Gus, Tim and Yang are more than delighted to see Faust smile for the first time in a while.

Faust is smiling all the way while going back to home.

As soon as Gus and Faust reaches home. Faust sleeps beside Bella in her little bed "Bella, I swear I will never abandon you again and will protect you with my life." Faust quietly whispers to Bella eventually falling asleep with a smile still on his face.

The next day, Gus calls for Faust who just finished his rounds around the village.

"Faust, I want you to help me with finding a book for me." Gus says to Faust.

"Sure grandpa, where did you keep it?" Faust is all ready to help his grandpa and make himself useful.

"It's in the attic, in a black wooden box. Take this key to open the box and bring the book down here." Gus tells Faust as to how to do his little errand.

Faust goes ahead to find the box and unlocks it, he is caught off unguarded with what he saw, a book with a drawing of a long katana on it.

"I've got it grandpa, please take it." Faust was curious but brings the book that seems to be some kind of ma.n.u.script to his grandpa, but Gus didn't take the book, instead he told Faust to read and study the first ten pages.

"Read what it says on the book cover" Gus told Faust.

"Hmmm... Unholy sword arts? That's what it says." Faust reads carelessly while looks up at his grandpa with a questioning expression appearing on his face.
