Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast

Closing her eyes whilst crossing her legs in front of her, Soohyun tried to mediate. Regardless of how much she tried to concentrate her mind on trying to figure out her powers, distracting her attention.

The second she decided to mediate, useless thoughts began to invade her mind, and she had no clue on how to get them out of her mind. 

Foolish thoughts of which food is better or was she missing eating warm foods began to form in her mind, and she found it difficult to drive those thoughts away from her mind.

Opening one of her eyes, Soohyun tried to see what Soobin was vocalised. A stern expression sat on his face while he stared at her.

"Concentrate," he enunciated— his tone holding strictness.

Instantly, Soohyun closed her eyes and attempted to concentrate. The only problem was that she was unsure on how to concentrate properly.

Taking in a deep breath, she attempted to drive away all the useless thoughts inside her mind, and although she had no clue on how to unleash the power within her, she just did what she could.

Around ten minutes had passed, and although her mind was blank at this point, she did not know how to take out those powers of hers. 

Opening both of her eyes, she stared down at her ground before saying, "I don't know how to do it. Can you help me?"

'Minnie, a little help here. Please. Yah! Don't abandon me! Ah! Nevermind! It was wrong of me to expect that you will actually help me. You are absolutely useless!'

A groan left Soobin's mouth at those words of Lee Soohyun, and his eyes glared at her. Irritation emitted off of him, and she gulped. 

She was regretting her decision on opening her eyes and asking him for help; she was almost expecting for him to shout at her.

"You are absolutely troublesome," he commented, "Try to communicate with the power deep inside of you. Attempt to search deeper within yourself, and that is when, you will find those powers within yourself, fighting to come out. The only barrier holding them is you."

More confusion showed on Soohyun's face after Soobin had uttered those words, and they all sounded very much foreign to her. Not wanting to aggravate him further, she closed her eyes tightly and tried to figure out things on her.

Han Minhyun had mentioned on how she was talented in this, and in one way or another, she might find the answer by herself. If she could not figure it out, it was definitely Soobin's fault for not being a good teacher.

"Thanks, I understood now," Soohyun voiced out before closing her eyes.

'You can do it, Soohyun. Clear your thoughts and concentrate. That power that is hidden inside of you, I know you can take it out. Just a little more effort.'

Pulling the curtain, Han Minhyun walked into the room before him, and in front of him was bed on which Oh Jaeho rested. His complexion was sickly. Minhyun bowed at the man before him.

Seeing Han Minhyun stepping into the room, he pressed his palm on top of the bed, and exerting force on it, he sat up on the bed. Leaning against the bed, he flashed a weak smile towards Minhyun.

"Ah! Han Minhyun, you are here. Was there anything you needed?" he voiced out— his tone being gentle.

Minhyun nodded and vocalised, "I hope you don't mind my presence, Oh Jaeho. I am here to run some tests on you, and this will just take a moment."

"About the tests, as much as I am willing to let you run them, it would be better to ask my doctor first. There were some medicines I am currently under, and that might interfere with the results," Jaeho stated.

"About that, Oh Jaeho, do not worry. I have asked Doctor Oh about it. According to him, it will be more accurate to take the sample at this moment," Minhyun answered.

"Alright then, you can do the tests then," Jaeho said.

"I will get the instruments then," Minhyun voiced out.

Turning his back, he was about it leave the room, but before he could do so, Oh Jaeho's voice caused him to halt in his actions.

"Would it be possible for me to get up from the bed soon? Laying down here is not productive, and I don't think my health will be worsening if I get up," Jaeho vocalised.

"I am afraid that I can not say anything about it, Oh Jaeho. Your life is in danger, and this is the best way we can monitor everything," Minhyun stated.

As his lips curved at the end to form a smile, Jaeho said, "I have a clue on how impossible my case is. My only request is that I don't want to spend my last days laying on the bed, and so, please put in a word to the Leaders to get me off the bed. You are the only one I can comfortably say this to. I am willing to put up with any tests they want me to go through."

Narrowing his eyes at Oh Jaeho, Minhyun nodded his head and responded, "I will try to convince them then."

"Thank you, Minhyun," he vocalised, "I know I could count on you. If anything happens to me, please take care of Jihoon. That boy can be naive at times, and I want you to guide him even though this can prove to be burdensome."

Oh Jaeho coughed couple of times after that.

"You will be making through this, Oh Jaeho," Minhyun expressed, "It is better to think positively, and I will take care of Jihoon. Don't worry about that part. 

Should I call him up to meet you? His work at the surface is almost done, and if you want, I can ask of him to hurry up to meet up with you."

Shaking his head, Jaeho voiced out, "There is no need to disrupt your mission because of my health. He can visit me after his work there is done."
