It was awkward. After I tried to be as friendly as possible because it's now my job to teach Taeyoung, I couldn't do it. As soon as we left the building, I moved away from him. Seeing how uncomfortable he got. For the rest of the walk, we remained quiet until we arrived at my door. "Ah! W-wait here for a minute. I almost forgot I had Kemono with me" I said, quickly entering my room, leaving Taeyoung alone who simply blinked, waiting as he heard me screaming out Kemonos name then a few thuds before I opened the door. "Come in..." I sighed once he walked inside, pausing when he saw the torn up furniture around. The only things untouched were the couches and dining table. Everything else was ripped apart, including the bed and pillows. "Who's Kemono?" Taeyoung asked, slowly sitting down on one of the couches. "My dog. I brought him with me because I was nervous staying here alone" I admitted, closing the door then sitting down myself.

"He's in the bathroom. So there's no need to be so stiff..." it didn't go unnoticed when I saw Taeyoung glancing around the room the way he did. As if expecting to get attacked any moment seeing how ripped everything was. He of course is scared. But hearing my words, he relaxed slightly. "...I'm going to be completely honest with you...I don't know what I can teach you. I'm sure you know I'm a regular human, I have no awakened power so...it's kind of weird that Giwook made me your teacher of sorts" Taeyoung nodded in response. Pursing his lips. "May I ask how you came to the awakened academy if you're not awakened?" I smiled hearing his question. It's to be expected. If anything, I bet all the unaffiliated students hate me because I'm a regular human who was able to come to the academy when they barely arrived because these top notch organizations sponsored them.

"Well, I'm a manager-in-training from the Shinhwa organization, a spectator and evaluator for the Hua organization, and a teacher assistant for Giwook Jang. Since my father and his secretary couldn't make it, they sent me instead" I said kindly only to watch the kid before me gasp in shock. I blinked, looking at him. He seemed rather out of it as he kept trying to say something but for the life of him couldn't get it out. "H-Hua organization-???" He asked. I nodded. I have no idea how influential the Hua organization is nor did I want to know. So seeing his reaction, it finally piqued my interest in finding out. "Y-you mean the leader of that organization is your father!?" He asked. I flinched. Shit. Kains father isn't the official leader but a puppeteer of the marionette leader. "N-no- he's my uncle. My fathers brother-" I lied again. Trying to come up with anything but even then. It hardly changed Taeyoung's shock.

"You mean your uncle runs the organization of an international awakened ones institution!?! One that expands farther than South Korea!?! The biggest organization in Korea!?!?" I gulped. They're the biggest? And expand overseas?? Is that why Kains father is always out in other countries dealing with "business issues"? So that's why...they couldn't do much against him. It's why everyone, although they hate Kain, don't take action in getting him kicked off this island. "I even heard the Hua clan became the biggest contributor to the awakened academy because someone higher up wanted their son to see it personally! That was you!?" It was my turn to become nervous. I cursed myself. Trying to keep away from this awakened world by not learning of Kains fathers true value has only chained me deeper into this damned world. "Uhm...no? Probably not?" I looked away, truly wondering if Kains father was mental or if he just blindly loved his son to the point of allowing the kid to do whatever the fuck he wanted. Even ruining people's lives!?

"W-wait Taeyoung- I'm your teacher right now. Let's get to learning-" He paused, nodding his head as his excitement dulled down.  "Okay so- here's what I can say. I don't know if it'll be helpful to you but when you observe a situation, always consider every aspect within. This includes the cause of the situation, the resulting outcomes that could happen, the things in your disposal as well as their abilities. But always remember. While thinking of the solution, your priority is to survive. You and your people'' I bullshitted. I have no idea what I'm saying nor what I'm supposed to tell him. He's an awakened one whose mind runs at an ever faster speed than anyone. He understands everything. "See what could go wrong, what could possibly go right. The tiny details and what they could mean. Every passing second could mean life or death. But this is when it comes to monitoring fighting circumstances. I'm sure that was Giwook wants me to teach you about..." Taeyoung nodded his head. "Then, write me a paper telling me everything you observed during the sparring today. The situation, the outcome, possible outcomes had they done something different. The things they did wrong. If the other opponent could've had a chance to turn it around and win. Everything. Tell me everything you thought of while watching and pending things everyone else might've missed" Taeyoung blinked, nodding his head.
