The village

After going out of the mayor's house, old man Dan led him to the village doctor's clinic. The clinic was in the center of the village and near the mayor's house.

There weren't many people as it was a small village and even less would be sick or hurt. So the physician was mostly free and most of his time would be used for studying medicine or teaching disciples.

"Hello, physician Jang. How have you been? I brought you a patient."

As old man Dan called out to the physician, he turned around and found Chun Woo-Moon come in with old man Dan. Although he had seen him while treating him, he seemed even more beautiful when awake, so he was even more shocked. But he was sure that no matter how many times he saw him, he would never grow tired of his beauty.

"HOHOHO, it's good to see the patient is healing faster than expected. Come in. It's not good to make the patient stand there."

Chun Woo-Moon looked at the old man sitting in front of him. An old man in his seventies to eighties, with a plump belly and white, long beard, along with a kind and benevolent smile.

'So this man is the person who treated me.'

As he was looking at the physician, he noticed that people were siting behind him. Two men and a girl. The men were in their thirties and the girl was still young, maybe around twenty or even lower.

But they were looking at him strangely. Like they saw something foreign and were bewildered by it.

He felt a little uncomfortable, so he hid behind old man Dan. But now that he think of it, ever after he came out of that room, he has been receiving this kind of gazes. From mayor and from the people passing by. The physician and old man Dan seem to be exceptions, since it was only for a moment but it disappeared afterward.

"So, what may I be needed for?"

"Ah, I wanted to examine the young man's body. He has woken up faster than excepted and seems fine, but just in case, we want to see if he's really okay."

"Oh? I f that's the case, then with pleasure. I was about to check on him since my lessons with my disciples has just ended."

Then he stretched his hand and took Chun Woo-Moon's hand and started taking his pulse. After a while, he opened his eyes.

"His injuries are mostly healed and he has no problem in daily life, but it still takes some time till full recovery. I recommend resting a few more days while doing light exercises."

"Okay. Although it's late, but thank you for the treatment you gave me."

"HOHO, no need for thanks. It's a physician's duty to treat people and I just did my duty."

After that, old man Dan explained the situation to physician Jang and seek his opinion.

"Hmm. I think it's okay, but as the sir Chun said it would be better to depart in a week. He would be completely healed till the preparations are ready."

Old man Dan nodded his head and agreed.

At that time, he sensed something pulling his sleeve and turned to look.

It was Chun Woo-Moon. He was pulling on his sleeve as he signaled them to go out.

He couldn't help but be reminded of a shy girl meeting strangers for the first time and feeling awkward.

How could a man in his twenties look so cute and adorable in his eyes? In the eyes of a sixty years old old man? Ridiculous!!

"Then we will excuse ourselves. Take care physician Jang."

It was at that time that the girl behind physician Jang came forward and said in an awkward and embarrassed tone.

"Are you going already? Can't you stay longer?"

'Ahh, so that's how it is.'

Old man Dan now understood why Chun Woo-Moon was acting like that.

The people he had never seen before were staring at him with greedy and lecherous eyes. Of course he would feel uncomfortable and want to get away from there as soon as possible.

If it was only the girl it was one thing, but even the men were looking at him like that.

'And these guys call themselves doctor?'

"Sorry, but we have a lot to prepare and although he has only just woken up, I've been taking him here and there, so he must be tired. He hasn't even healed completely, so I want him to rest comfortably in the place we prepared for him."

But they weren't giving up easily.

"Then, what place could be better than here?"

"It's a clinic made for people resting and getting treated comfortably. We can look after him since he's a patient and he can even rest."

"We can prepare him his meals, medicine and take care of him. That's exactly what we're supposed to do and are good at."

"And since people rarely come it's quiet. It's also in the center of the village and near the village mayor's house."

"He can go see him and and get examined by master whenever he want and most of the village's shop are here, so he can buy anything he wants too."

"That's why, how about it?"

They looked at old man Dan and Chun Woo-Moon with innocent eyes that were literally begging them to stay, but the answer left them in shock and disappointment.

"No. Impossible."

"Sorry, but as you heard it seems he can't stay, so please excuse us."

At that, physician Jang burst out laughing at his disciples. So much that he started gasping for air.

"Then, goodbye and take care, elder Dan, sir Chun."

After they went out of the clinic, old man Dan looked at him and started talking.

"Sorry about that. I didn't realize you were feeling uncomfortable at their gazes."

"No, it's okay. No need to apologize."

"As an apology how about I show you something good?"

"Okay."

And he began leading him to outside the village. After walking for a while, climbing and walking again, finally old man Dan came to a stop.

"It's here. What do you think?"

As he saw that scenery, his eyes widened and his mouth opened.

"It's beautiful."

It was the village's scenery. With the village at the center and a majestic mountain behind it, a lake with clear water and beautiful birds flying above it ahead the village, a big and green forest at one side and a plain with fantastic flowerbeds at the other side with the setting sun as the background. Right, just like a painting out of a fairy tail.

Old man Dan was satisfied at Chun Woo-Moon's reaction and smiled softly.

'Finally. He showed an expression.'

From the moment he had seen him till now, old man Dan had never seen an expression out of him. Although he was easy to understand, that was his emotions and not his expression.

It was mystery how he could convey his emotions so well with that expressionless face.

'Though that's his charm as well. Maybe I should learn it from him.'

"The sun's setting as well and it will be dark soon. How about we don't linger around any longer and go back?"

"Okay."

As they turned around to go back, he turned his head around to see that mesmerizing scene one more time.

He looked at it for a few more seconds and turned around and went after old man Dan down the hill.

*****

"we've arrived young man. We prepared it in a hurry so please understand that it's a little shabby."

"Not at all. If anything, I'm thankful that you even gave me an space for myself."

"If you think so, then it's alright."

The room that he woke up at was just a warehouse that was empty and unused. After they discovered Chun Woo-Moon, they cleaned it and moved some necessities in it, so he would be comfortable.

But after he woke up, the mayor thought that it was rude to keep him there for long, so he prepared an unused house for him to live in while he was there.

After Chun Woo-Moon and old man Dan returned, he received word to guide him here.

"Then I will take my leave."

"Okay. Good night, old man Dan."

"Yes, good night to you too."

Chun Woo-Moon enter the house and examined it. Beside the size that had gotten bigger, there was nothing different from that room.

Or was it? It has a stove, a table and four chairs but besides that nothing was really different. They had just moved anything in that warehouse to here. It was the difference between the facilities of a house and a ware house.

"Let's set thinking and organizing aside for now and just rest."

He didn't do much but he was tired. Not physically but mentally.

Of course he would be!!

Losing his memory, being surrounded by unknow people while not even knowing who he himself was and even having to socialize with them while trying to seek clues about himself and how to restore his memory.

In a word, it was a tough day.

With that, he just went to bed and lied down.

good night, Woo-Moon. May god bless you and your future.
