Reborn In My Favourite Comic (TaeKook)
Chapter 15: The Unveiling
The silence in the gym was suffocating. Lisa and Jimin stared at Taehyung, their disbelief evident in their eyes. Even Namjoon, who rarely showed his emotions, seemed momentarily stunned.

"I know how to fight,"
Taehyung said, his voice calm but firm. He rolled his shoulders, easing the tension in his muscles.
Jimin blinked.

"What? Since when?"

"That’s impossible. You’ve never even thrown a proper punch in your life."
Taehyung’s lips curled into a small, unreadable smile.
Kim taehyung
"That’s what you think."
Namjoon studied him carefully, his sharp gaze dissecting every inch of Taehyung’s posture. His son’s stance was steady, calculated—nothing like the untrained boy he had always known. A suspicion formed in his mind, but he kept it to himself for now.
Kim namjoon
"Why have you never shown this before?"
Namjoon finally asked.
Taehyung exhaled slowly, looking down at his hands.
Kim taehyung
"Because I never needed to. And because I never wanted to."
kim lisa
"That’s not an answer."
Taehyung met her gaze, something dark flashing behind his eyes.
Kim taehyung
"Some things are better left hidden."
Namjoon remained silent for a long moment, his mind whirling. This wasn’t just some newfound determination—there was something deeper, something unsettling about the way Taehyung spoke, the way he moved.
Finally, Namjoon turned to Seokjin, who had just entered the gym, observing the tension in the room.
Kim namjoon
"Call in a few of the bodyguards,"
Namjoon ordered, his voice unreadable.
Seokjin hesitated, glancing at Taehyung.
Kim seokjin
"Are you sure?"
Kim namjoon
"If he says he knows how to fight, then let’s see it."

"Wait, hold on uncle. You’re going to make Taehyung fight trained bodyguards? That’s insane uncle."
Taehyung, however, simply stepped forward.
Kim taehyung
"I don’t mind. Let them come."
kim lisa
"Are you serious right now? This isn’t a game, Taehyung. They’re professionals."
Taehyung tilted his head slightly.
The room fell silent again, but this time it was heavier, charged with something unspoken. Namjoon exchanged a glance with Seokjin, who gave a small nod before stepping out to make the call.
Jimin shook his head in disbelief.

"What the hell is going on with you?"
Taehyung didn’t answer.
A few minutes later, three bodyguards entered the gym—broad, muscular men who had been personally trained under Namjoon’s watch. They looked at Taehyung with mild curiosity, not yet understanding why they had been summoned.
Namjoon crossed his arms.
Kim namjoon
"Rules are simple. Go easy on him, but test his skills."
The guards nodded. One of them, a man named Kang, smirked.

"No offense, young master, but this won’t take long."
Namjoon took a step back, watching intently. Seokjin stood beside him, silent but alert.
Kang stepped forward first, throwing a testing jab toward Taehyung’s shoulder. But before it could connect, Taehyung moved.
Fast.
He twisted his body, effortlessly dodging the attack before delivering a sharp, precise strike to Kang’s ribs. The man stumbled back, his face contorted in shock.
Lisa gasped. Jimin’s jaw dropped.
Namjoon’s eyes darkened.
Kang recovered quickly, rushing forward with a more serious approach. The other two guards moved in as well. But Taehyung was already ahead of them.
He ducked under a punch, swept Kang’s legs from beneath him, then pivoted to catch another guard’s wrist mid-strike. In a fluid motion, he twisted, sending the man crashing to the floor. The third hesitated just a fraction too long, and Taehyung used that moment to land a kick to his stomach, sending him staggering backward.
Within seconds, all three bodyguards were on the ground.
Lisa inhaled sharply. Jimin took a step back. Seokjin’s expression was unreadable, but Namjoon… Namjoon’s mind was racing.

"What… the hell?"
Kang groaned, looking up at Taehyung in disbelief.
Taehyung exhaled, standing tall. He rolled his shoulders, looking back at his father.
Kim taehyung
"I told you,"
Kim taehyung
"I know how to fight."
Namjoon clenched his jaw.
Kim namjoon
"Where did you learn this?"
Taehyung hesitated.
And then, with a calm expression, he gave the only answer he could.
Kim taehyung
"It’s a long story, Dad. One I’m not sure you’re ready to hear."
For the first time in a long time, Namjoon wasn’t sure what to say.
Because the boy standing in front of him… wasn’t the same Taehyung he had raised.
Something was different.
Something was very, very different.
