In an old worn out due to no maintenance bed of a dilapidated room, the girl sleeping on the bed suddenly moved and sat up holding her head, she rubbed her forehead to chase away the menacing headache that woke her up.
a while latter, she finally digested the new found memories in her head, Zhuang-Ming Yue took a deep breath, she raised one of her hands and pinched her other arm, feeling the painful sensation coming from her arm, Zhuang-Ming Yue frowned and finally accepted that what was happening to her was true.
She who clearly died has somehow came back to life. It was just that the body of whom has the same name as her was that of a pitiful child. This girl is a loveless child born into a harem of more than three thousand ladies of different beauties and styles by a minor concubine to a heartless and incapable emperor of the Zhuang dynasty who can only think with his lower half and whom is getting on in age now.
Ming Yue sighed, "this world is extremely different from my former one" she said to her self softly
This world is filled with martial artists and from the pitiful little amount of information she could scrunch from the former owner, this world has something named Qi and those who can train using Qi are called martial artists and those who reach a high level can live a longer life and it keeps getting longer as long as the barrier to the next level can be surmounted which is harder since they need enlightenment.
As for how to train in this Qi, this body doesn't know but, she does know that all martial training techniques are extremely precious and there are many types but they are tightly kept in protection by every country and sects in existence of this world which makes every martial artist who has the talent go flocking towards them and this information, she overheard it by mistake when she tried to see what the outside look like which almost cost her death.
All this is the reason the original became pitiful. As soon as she was born, her martial potential was tested using the potential stone which can search through the bodies of children and then project it out in a form of colourful light such as Red which is the lowest followed by Yellow then Blue, Purple and then finally Black which is the strongest potential only seen once in a lifetime but the result was that her potential was the extremely low Red which signifies that she can't even pass the first stage of cultivating martial techniques which cost her and her mother to be abandoned by the incapable emperor. Her mother protected her as much as she could and soon died while she was moved to this dilapidated place to live alone until her death.
"Well, she still died now" Ming Yue said to herself again but then her face suddenly paled and she buried her head on her knees while murmuring, "I-I- I died by choking! What a low-level mistake so, whom am I to ridicule her?" she, the mercenary king who has her name as bright moon sang across the world, died by choking! This is the most ridiculous scenario that will bring shame to her name for a thousand of years to come if anyone knows and thank the stars that she rebirthed in another world where no one knows her so she won't see the ridicule in other eyes and words when talking about her.
After a while of rolling in the shame of her regretful death, she finally pulled herself together, "this is not the time for this. I have to set the order of thing" she has to think carefully of what she wants to do in this new world that is so unlike the one she is used to.
"First thing first, what do I want to do?" she kept murmuring to herself. She is not afraid that someone will suddenly barge in since the only people who comes here are those from the imperial kitchen well, they are those from the outer circle that serve the abandoned wives and loveless children like her and there are many of them, people die inexplicably every day in this palace and it is not that the truth about their death can't be found, it is just that the emperor is just indifferent and cold.
She can't remain here forever and the imperial outer circle kitchen dog members will be coming in month to send her expired food again clearly wishing for her to die earlier.
"Sigh, I wonder how the original owner survived until now, no wonder she is skin and bones with no flesh to be seen" Ming Yue stared at her arm that is left with only bones in resentment.
"Well, back to the order of things, what do I do now?" she closed her eyes to think before coming into final resolution
She wants to be what she couldn't be in her last world, a salted fish. She wants to be lazy and not bothering much about other people but herself, just quietly living her days in peace which she couldn't achieve in her last life due to many circumstances that lead her to selling herself thus trained to become the best mercenary and being a salted fish became her lifelong wishful thinking and dream.
She knows that this world is clearly different and to achieve her ultimate dream of salted fishiness without disturbance will be a dream without power, so she has decided to use her mercenary power to become a salted fish with a dream and the first order of things is to steal one of the martial art technique in the heavily guarded treasury which won't be an easy thing since martial artists have heightened senses but the mini thing she has to do first is to steal good food to make herself healthier first to have energy otherwise everything will be lost.
