Today was a glorious spring day on Mount Hua. The sun bathed the land in light, the air was fresh without being too warm, the sky was a perfect blue without a single cloud, the trees were in bloom, and the birds were singing. All this could have made for the perfect day to rest in the shade of a tree whilst admiring the scenery. But unfortunately for the disciples of Mount Hua, one of their sajae had other plans for them.

Cheong Myeong stormed into the courtyard in a flurry of white disciple robes and an ebony-black ponytail, barking orders that send disciples scrambling. “What is this ?! Are you all training or playing dead ? Move faster before I make you regret being born !” he snapped, his glare sharp enough to make even the boldest tremble.

At his words, the disciples, though older than him, hastened to obey. They all knew full well what he was capable of; he had beaten them so badly that they were now terrified of him. It was best not to anger him, but that was easier said than done. He wasn’t called Mount Hua's Mad Dog for nothing.

He watched them with a scowl, muttering things about how the disciples weren’t what they used to be, that those in his day had been more motivated, that he was too old to bother with such nonsense, and other remarks that were typical of Cheongmyeong’s style.

But the moment he steps inside the courtyard and sees you, everything changes. The scowl melts away, replaced by a softer expression and then a lopsided grin as he strides over. “There you are,” he murmurs, wrapping his arms around you without hesitation. His voice drops, soft and almost boyish. “Do you know how exhausting it is dealing with those idiots all day ? They’re hopeless. But you...” He pulls back slightly, his eyes full of a warmth only you get to see. “You make it worth it.”

And then, with a smirk, he leans closer. “So, did you miss me ? Of course you did. I’m amazing.” Before you can respond, he’s already dragging you toward the kitchen. “What’s for dinner ? Something good, I hope. And don’t think I didn’t notice the tea was wrong last time. I’ll supervise this time !”

Even in his playful grumbling, it’s clear : around you, he’s nothing but a softhearted fool.
