《Throne of World》Ch 11 | Beauty Rejected

At about a quarter past nine Alexander reached the library. He was still in too much pain but he didn't have any time to spare. He directly reached towards the shelves and started picking up the books.
Since traditional medicine was rarely learned by any students and the books were used by only teachers, so all the books were available.
He started picking up books, Basics of human body acupuncture, handbook of acupuncture identification, traditional Chinese medicine principles and basics, Chinese herbs and uses, Experimenting with Chinese herbs by Yang lie, Ayurveda principles, and Veda, Ayurvedic Herbs, Human body through Ayurveda, Ayurvedic Medicine, Greek Medicine, Greek techniques to diagnose and treat, etc.
With these many books, Alexander strode towards the previous desk and sat there. Today there was no one else on the opposite sit, so Alexander spread his books on the whole table and started reading acupuncture books.
With his increased speed of learning, in about an hour he had already learned all about all the acupuncture points. Keeping aside 3 books of acupuncture, Alexander lifted his leg and pressed a few points on the sole of his feet.
First, there was no reaction, but then slowly he felt that his blood started boiling. His blood rushed through every part of his body at tremendous pressure then slowed down after about 2 minutes
Alexander who was feeling all of this was startled! His eyes grew wide and he was almost about to jump and scream!
Holy Sh*t!
This really works?!
The pain and soreness are no more and I am feeling rather energetic than tired!
If Alexander was able to see his own face now, he'll be shocked once again. The sleepy and tired face that he was carrying till now, was gone and replaced by an energetic and excited face.

Alexander thought of something and took out his phone. He opened the book and clicked a few photos. This image contained the location of different points and ways to locate them on a normal human.
This was important and can be forgotten easily and hence it's better to have some photos. He now knew the function of every point and with his intellect, he can experiment with a combination of different points.
The combination of the three points he used just now, was his own creation by knowing the function of points and working of the human body.
As he was thinking about his creation, a gentle and sweet cough sound came. Although anyone can guess that it was the sound of a girl but Alexander was confused, 'why would someone come to me?'
He lifted his head and saw a girl in a beautiful green plaid skirt and white top standing in front of him. Her hair was made into a ponytail which gave an aura of youth. With her beautiful face and charming eyes, she was staring straight into his eyes.
The girl was none other than Hazel Williams, the same girl who was sitting opposite him yesterday.
"Uhmm... What can I do for you?" Alexander asked in gentlemanly tone.
"Can I sit here?" She pointed at the door beside Alexander and asked him.
He saw towards the direction she was pointing at and was shocked.
Why does she want to sit beside me?
I don't like a person sitting beside me while I am reading!
Seeing that Alexander didn't give a reply and was thinking something, Hazel explained hastily, " Yesterday you explained to me something but I wasn't able to comprehend it. I just wanted to ask you for help! "
" In that case, you can sit at yesterday's position and I'll explain it to you. Actually, I don't like anyone sitting beside me while I am studying. I hope you can understand." Alexander replied reluctantly. Although he was an introvert and avoids human contact he still wanted to enjoy sitting beside a peerless beauty. But in the end, his introvert nature won!

Hazel was shocked to listen to the answer but still nodded and went to sit at the opposite chair but a trace of disappointment was visible on his face.
' Isn't he a boy? How can he reject me sitting beside him? '
' I collected so much of my courage to ask him about sitting beside him but I was rejected?! '

Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields. In the name of some royal fat cats or some shitty national leader, cruelty and crimes were committed against the weak and the vulnerable younglings; in other words, adults were assholes. Their deaths marked a new beginning, a new beginning in a strange and magical land that was and had only been dreamt of in stories and folk tale, they had arrived to Terruta. The first ones regarded themselves as Revenants, heroes who had been able to be reborn in this world and began their adventure to explore this strange foreign land. However, “every coin have two sides, like everyone have two faces”. 'As they left their former life behind, the young soldiers and operators found themselves being deceived, abused and taken advantaged off again by the elders of this world. Many were abused, tortured, raped and sold to slavery, Revenants were quite sought after due to their timeless charm, strength, intellect and immortality, they were unable to be killed no matter what; many were bought and used as pets, slaves and entertainers for their masters’ entertainment. Fed up with the similar treatment and abuse by the adults of this world, many revolted and founded ICC, International Cooperative Coalition.'-Sasaki Kotegawa, JSDF Private.
