Reborn as a Sect Master (Taekook)
Episode 1
The warm spring sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and landed on a white bedsheet. The person on the bed was slightly pale. Hid hair soaked the fine sweat on his forehead, and it stuck onto his face
Kim Taehyung
*eyebrows were slightly furrowed*
Kim Taehyung
*was in a daze*
Kim Taehyung
*felt as if some lead had filled his head*
Kim Taehyung
*nerves were throbbing, and felt as if they were about to explode*
Kim Taehyung
*back, which was on a mattress as hard as a rock, was in pain. sweat-soaked undergarments stuck to his body, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. eyelashes trembled slightly and only then did slowly opened eyes with difficulty*
In a daze, the first thing he saw was an old-fashioned closet with yellow paint peeling off. There was a green glass vase on the shabby handmade bedside table next to the bed. A wilted daffodil was on the verge of collapse, and an alarm clock that looked like a cherry ball was staring at his alarm with wide eyes
Kim Taehyung
*only felt a flash of white light in mind. His dispirited spirit was instantly stimulated back into his body, and his weak body sat up from the bed.*
Kim Taehyung
*Surveying surroundings, realized that this was not his high-class apartment in the capital. However, the white bedsheets, the light muslin curtains, and the furnishings in the room were all very familiar to him.*
This was not his house or even the capital.
It was his home in F City, where he grew up!
Kim Taehyung
💭 Unbelievable!!
Kim Taehyung
*looked at everything in front of him with a dazed expression. Why was he here? Wasn’t this old house demolished a long time ago?*
Kim Taehyung
*closed eyes and tried his best to recall everything that had happened. Had lived in this old house until he was seventeen years old and entered a university in the capital*
At nineteen years old, his mother passed away due to cancer, and his elder brother went out to work in the construction team to earn money for his studies.
However, he unexpectedly met with an accident and left the world. From then on, the two most important family members in Taehyung’s life left him one after another, leaving him in his third year of university
However, this did not wholly defeat him. After being immersed in sorrow for a while, Taehyung decided to face the future alone.
The construction team provided monetary compensation for his brother’s death. Taehyung also managed to get a large sum of money from the demolition of the old house.
With this money, Taehyung started his business in the capital with his unique wisdom and skills.
It was as if he had a natural sensitivity to doing business. In just a few years, Taehyung made a name for himself in the capital’s real estate industry and became a Omega boss worth tens of millions.
Kim Taehyung
*The scene froze at the last frame in the mind. The driver was driving him to sign a contract with his business partner. At an intersection, a truck driving beside him suddenly turned sideways…*
Kim Taehyung
💭 So...was I dead?
Kim Taehyung
*opened eyes and looked at everything that made him feel dazed yet familiar. Or could it be that his real-life was just a dream?*
Kim Taehyung
*Getting off the bed, skillfully went to the closet and opened it. There was a mirror on the inner side of the door. In the mirror, his face was pale, and his body was thin. It was obvious that he had not yet recovered from a severe illness. But this was also how he used to look!*
Kim Taehyung
*raised hand and carefully touched his face. It felt so real that couldn’t help but tear up.*
Stacked at the top of the closet was his high school uniform. It was old-fashioned and had friendly colors.
At this time, the sound of the door opening suddenly came from outside.
Kim Taehyung
*heart thumped, and body involuntarily trembled.*
Kim Taehyung
*rushed to the door and opened it*
In the small living room, Kim Hye-Kyu was putting down the fruits in her hands.
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*When heard the voice couldn’t help but turn around and saw her omega son standing at the door with a worn look on his face and exclaimed*
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
Oh, Taebear why did you get off the bed so quickly? Go back and lie down. Don’t catch a cold
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*As she spoke, quickly walked over to Taehyung and just as was about to help him into the room, her omega son suddenly hugged her*
Kim Taehyung
*seemed to have used up all his strength to call out ‘mom.’ and could no longer control himself as he threw himself into his mother’s arms and started crying.*
In Taehyung’s memory, his mother worked as an escort at a nightclub for as long as he could remember. This was an indecent job in the eyes of others, and because of this, the neighbors criticized his mother. Even his maternal grandparents and uncles never made extra contact with his family.
Other than that, his mother rented a small stall on the street not far from his house. Every morning, she had to wake up early to fry some fried dough sticks and sell breakfast. His mother had repeated such a life for more than a decade, just to support him and his brother.
Taehyung and his brother did not know anything about their father. Since his mother did not say it, they did not ask. In his heart, only his mother and brother were important.
However, when he was nineteen years old, God made a joke with him once again. His mother was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer and passed away in just two months.
This made the already difficult family even worse. He did not even get to see his mother for the last time as he was in a university in the capital giving exams, so his brother didn't say anything about his mother demise
Feeling the familiar fragrance on her mother’s body, Taehyung cried until he almost went limp. If this was all a dream, he was willing to exchange everything he had for this dream and not wake up.
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*was startled by her son’s sudden hug*
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*When regained her senses, quickly patted her son’s back in a comforting manner*
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
Alright, my dear taebear, what are you crying for? Quickly go back and lie down. Your fever just subsided. Don’t catch a cold again
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*Looking at her son’s red eyes from crying, couldn’t help but smile dotingly*
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
The doctor said that you were frightened, so your emotions might fluctuate. How would I know that your emotions would fluctuate so much? This is the first time Mom has seen you cry so hard
Kim Taehyung
*wiped his tears and although could not calm down quickly, still pretended to be normal and said*
Kim Taehyung
Mom, I want to take a shower first. My body is sticky and uncomfortable
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
Alright, take a shower first. I’ll change the bedsheets for you. It’s probably drenched in sweat.
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*assumed that her son had been frightened, so she didn’t think too much about it*
In the bathroom, the simple showerhead sprayed water intermittently. Taehyung’s heart gradually calmed down.
It was the beginning of spring in 2002. It had been twelve years before his accident. All of this was not a dream. He had returned twelve years ago when he was fourteen!
However, if he could not change anything in this life, what was the use of this opportunity? Hence, Taehyung clenched his fists and swore to himself. This time, he must save his mother and brother and change the life of his family.
Episode 2
The evening of early spring was still a little cold, especially in F City, an economic city located at the northern end of Euphoria.
Kim Taehyung
*sat on the sofa in the living room with a blanket draped over his shoulders. On the coffee table in front of his was a steaming hot meal: fried eggs with tomato, sweet and sour pork, and a bowl of soup with fish head and tofu.*
There were two clean red apples next to the dishes, and it was evident that they were the most expensive ones at the fruit stall.
His mother always treated him like this. Even if his family background was not good, his mother always tried her best to give him the best when it came to eating and learning.
At this time, Hye-Kyu had already gone out for work. After Taehyung finished eating, he changed into a clean set of clothes and combed his hair. He looked at himself in the mirror before putting on his shoes and leaving.
In April and May, F City was as wet and cold as of late autumn. Taehyung wrapped his coat tightly around him and looked around while recalling everything that he was familiar with during his childhood.
F City was a provincial capital located in the J Province in the north. It was considered an important trade hub and an economic city divided into five major districts: H District, Z District, South City District, North City District, and W District.
The most prosperous city center was H District, while Taehyung's home was in the South City District, also known as the slums. Most of the South City District residents lived in poverty, and they could count the number of tall buildings in the entire district with one hand.
Most of them were flat houses or two or three stories tall residential buildings. In the bustling F City, this place seemed out of place.
After walking for more than half an hour, Taehyung stopped in front of Starlight Bar in Z District. Many young men gathered in groups at the bar entrance, where a deafening noise came from.
Kim Taehyung
*was a little nervous, but was more excited and expectant because his brother, Kim Hoseok, worked here*
To earn more money to finish his university studies, his brother had gone out with the construction team to do construction work in his previous life.
He had done hard work and spent all his youth. It was unexpected that a falling object took away his life at the construction site. Until now, Taehyung still did not dare to think about the scene of seeing his brother’s body
Some Alpha
Little omega, are you looking for someone? We can’t let children in here.
As soon as he reached the main entrance, a blond with a cigarette in his mouth looked up at Taehyung and asked. The blond didn’t look like a good person, but his tone was decent.
Kim Taehyung
*paused and looked at the blond before nodding*
Kim Taehyung
I’m looking for someone
Some Alpha
*The blond stood up and sized up Taehyung, took a puff of smoke and raised his eyebrows*
Some Alpha
Who are you looking for? There are no customers here yet!
Kim Taehyung
I’m not here to look for a customer. I’m looking for Kim Hoseok. He’s here as a security guard *quickly said*
Some Alpha
Oh, you’re looking for Hobi!
Some Alpha
*The blond couldn’t help but look at Taehyung meaningfully. Then, he smiled and said*
Some Alpha
Wait at the door. I’ll go in and call him for you
When the blond entered the bar, Taehyung exhaled deeply.
Starlight Bar was considered the best bar in Z District. Young people liked to come to such places, and many out-of-school youths nearby were willing to work in such places.
Their jobs were only at night, and they could earn eight hundred or a thousand yuan in a month. For a person in his twenties, this was considered quite an income.
Taehyung's elder brother, Hoseok, was four years older than him and had just turned eighteen. He had been working as a security guard at Starlight Bar for almost a year.
His elder brother loved him the most. Taehyung still remembered that whenever he received his salary every first day of the month, his brother would secretly give half of his money to him as pocket money.
The rest of the money would be given to his mother, leaving him with only a few dozen dollars.
Some Alpha
There, that omega in the white sweater!
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*As soon as he walked out of the bar, saw Taehyung. Raised his hand and slapped the back of the blond’s head*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
That omega, *done face*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
Damn you. That’s my brother!!
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*As soon as he finished speaking, ran up to Tae. He looked at Tae up and down worriedly before saying*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
You ran out after you recovered! And you came here...
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*looked around and asked*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
How did you get here? Did you walk here?
Hoseok was 1.8 meters tall, he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked very energetic. When he spoke, he frowned. His eyebrows were filled with concern for Taehyung.
Looking at his brother, Taehyung once again felt as if it was a lifetime ago. His heart warmed, and he felt a lump in his throat. He almost wanted to cry.
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
What’s wrong, Taebear? I’m asking you a question!
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*was even more nervous now that Tae was silent.*
Kim Taehyung
*quickly recovered from the trance and said*
Kim Taehyung
I’m fine, Hyung. I just came out for a walk. I just wanted to see you
Their home was in South City District, and the place he was at now was in Z District. By foot, it would take at least half an hour to get there. Hearing that Taehyung walked over, Hoseok couldn’t help but get angry. He was worried as his heart ached.
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
Eun I need to send my brother home. Help me ask Brother Dong for leave.
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*suddenly turned around and shouted at the blond who was watching from afar*
Eunwoo
*made a hand gesture to indicate that he had received the message*
Kim Taehyung
*Seeing this, smiled in embarrassment*
Kim Taehyung
Sorry to trouble you, hyung
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*Hearing this, smiled helplessly*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
It’s okay. Anyway, it’s not the weekend yet. The bar isn’t busy. I’m worried if you walk back by yourself
Kim Taehyung
*immediately went up and hugged Hobi’s arm. His brother was tall and strong, making his feel safe. He and his mother used to like to walk with him like that.*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
This is for you
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
* suddenly took out a small object from his pocket and handed it to Tae*
Kim Taehyung
*looked up and saw a pair of hairclips with a Little Ball character*
Kim Taehyung
Thank you, hyung
Kim Taehyung
*received them with joy as he looked up and grinned.*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*smiled and said lovingly*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
I saw it at the night market by accident. Didn’t you like Little Peach? Don’t stand on ceremony with me for two yuan
Kim Taehyung
What Little Peach? Her name is Little Ball *smiled*
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
Sure, sure little ball
The siblings walked towards Hobi’s motorcycle.
On the way back, Tae sat in the backseat with his arms around Hobi’s waist. The night wind of F City blew on his face, and it was cold and wet. However, at this moment, Tae’s heart was exceptionally and unprecedentedly warm.
Before going to bed that night, Tae packed his school bag, took out his school uniform, and ironed it. He had a high fever a few days ago and hadn’t been to school for a few days.
Now, he was no longer feeling unwell. Although Taehyung still remembered the things he had learned in his previous life, he still planned to return to school tomorrow.
Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but lying on the bed, Tae could not fall asleep for a long time. It was as if he was worried that everything would disappear once he woke up. He would become a successful businessman again, and he could no longer see his mother and brother.
Episode 3
At night, Taehyung had a very realistic dream.
In the dream, he could see no one, and there were no scenes at all. All he saw were words.
Kim Taehyung
I seemed to be an ancient legend of a lost sect.
Kim Taehyung
*Suddenly, a clear voice rang out in his mind*
???
In the Primordial World, the founder of the spiritual sect, Yu Jiang, pursued lifelong learning in his lifetime. He chose the people who defied fate and integrated himself into their bloodlines. He decides all things..
This voice was vast and mighty, distant and ethereal as if it were the call of an older man from another time and space. The sleeping Taehyung suddenly woke up to find that words had filled the space above him.
Kim Taehyung
💭 Defied fate?
These were the first words that appeared in Tae’s mind. In her dream, he remembered the words he heard. It said that those who defied fate, he would integrate his bloodline into them.
Kim Taehyung
*had somehow been reborn from twenty-six years old and back to fourteen years old. Could this be the so-called defying fate?*
Kim Taehyung
*raised his eyes to look at the golden words in front of him*
It was a secret manual of an ancient sect. It recorded the twelve sets of mental cultivation techniques of the founder, Yu Jiang. Before Taehyung could read the contents carefully, thousands of golden words jumped up as if they had a life of their own. Then, as Taehyung was dumbfounded, they all flew into his brain
The sudden surge of cognitive energy made Taehyung’s brain burn as if it were on fire. He felt his brain swell and heat up, and he felt awful. It took less than two minutes for the energy to fade until it was gone.
At this moment, Taehyung could say out the twelve sets of mental cultivation techniques easily, as if they had already been engraved in his mind.
Kim Taehyung
*sat up on the bed and looked at the Little Ball alarm clock, raised his hand, and the alarm clock on the bedside table flew towards himself*
Kim Taehyung
*was both surprised and delighted. Had thought that his rebirth was the greatest blessing from the heavens, but who would have thought that he would receive such a gift of a set of skills from an ancient sect? It was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise*
Rebirth was already hard for him to believe, and now he had learned the twelve sets of mental cultivation techniques. If all of this had not happened, Tae would never believe such a thing would happen in this world.
When he woke up in the morning, it was already 6 am. Tae quickly washed up, put on the school uniform that he had not seen for a long time, carried his school bag, and went out.
At this time, his mother and brother were already busy at their breakfast stall. Tae would eat breakfast at the stall every morning before going to school.
Kim Taehyung
*As he was walking, someone called his name from behind.*
Kim Taehyung
*stopped and looked back. An omega who was about the same age as him, wearing the same uniform, was running after him.*
Park Jimin was Tae's classmate and best friend. The two of them grew up together. From kindergarten to high school, they lived in the same place.
When they reached university, they applied for different schools because of different ideals but were still best friends.
Park Jimin married a rich second-generation heir in his previous life and gave birth to twins. Both of them were Alphas. He could straighten his back in his in-laws’ house and lead a comfortable life.
Park Jimin
You’re going to school after you have recovered? Why didn’t you rest at home for a few more days?
Park Jimin
*caught up with Taehyung and asked with concern.*
Kim Taehyung
*Suddenly seeing Jimin when he was young, couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment*
Kim Taehyung
I’m fine. I haven’t been to school for a few days. If I don’t go now, I won’t be able to catch up
Park Jimin
*When he saw that Tae’s expression had indeed improved, was relieved. Then, he sighed and said*
Park Jimin
Don’t provoke Bai Weiwei and the rest in the future. They are rich and powerful. They pushed you into the pond this time. What if they do something more out of line next time?
Kim Taehyung
*was stunned as he remembered that he had a fever because he fell into the water. Why didn’t he remember that this had something to do with Bai Weiwei?*
Horizon Heights was one of the top high schools in F City. The students there were roughly divided into two types. One was those who were rich and powerful, and the other was those who were good at studying and could get scholarships based on their abilities.
Taehyung and Jimin belonged to the second type. Otherwise, ordinary families would not be able to afford the expensive school fees.
However, those who received scholarships were the minority. Since adolescent omegas liked to form cliques, Taehyung and Jimin, who lived in the slums of the South City District, would naturally be isolated or even bullied by their classmates.
However, Taehyung had no impression of Bai Weiwei pushing him into the school pond. It had never happened in his previous life.
Kim Taehyung
💭 Perhaps after rebirth, many things had changed?
Park Jimin
Taebear, I’m talking to you.
Kim Taehyung
*regained senses and quickly replied.*
Their family’s breakfast stall was located at the end of the street. Since the location was not bad, they were not the only breakfast stall nearby.
Park Jimin
Auntie Kyu, Taebear and I are sitting outside
Park Jimin
*called out to the busy Hye-Kyu*
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
Alright, please wait a moment. I’ll be right there.
Kim Hye-Kyu (Taehyung's mother)
*answered while busying herself*
The business of the breakfast stall was more or less the same every day, and they had a fixed customer flow. Because Hye-Kyu’s fried dough sticks were delicious, those who liked eating fried dough sticks enjoyed coming to their stall for breakfast
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
Beautiful omegas, what would you like to eat?
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
*came to the table and asked with a smile*
Park Jimin
*As soon as he saw Hibi, eyes lit up. But before he could say anything, Tae spoke first*
Kim Taehyung
Soy milk, fried dough sticks, and two tea eggs. Hyung, hurry up. We won’t make it in time
Kim Hoseok (Taehyung's elder brother)
Okay *raised his eyebrows and went back into the stall*
Park Jimin
*opened mouth but didn’t say anything as his eyes followed Hobi inside*
Kim Taehyung
Alright, stop looking. Your eyeballs are flying out *looked at Jimin with amusement*
Park Jimin
*pouted and rolled his eyes*
Park Jimin
Auntie Kyu is really good at giving birth. You and your brother are both so good-looking.
Tae was fair and had an oval face. His facial features were not exquisite, but he was a classic beauty.
On the other hand, Hobi had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and big white teeth. When he smiled, he looked like a little sun. Not many omegas could resist him.
Park Jimin
But ya, Auntie Kyu is also good-looking. You two have good genes *added*
He was right. Kim Hye-Kyu gave birth to Hoseok when she was seventeen years old. She gave birth to Taehyung when she was twenty-one years old. Now, she is thirty-five years old. It was hard to believe that she had two children of this age.
A thirty-five-year-old middle-aged woman’s job was a nightclub hostess. If word got out, people would probably laugh at her.
However, Kim Hye-Kyu was different. She was born beautiful, and even though she was thirty-five years old, her skin was still tight, and her figure was sexy. She was even more charming than young girls.
