After the packing was complete, Ron stared at his figurine wall. He had to leave for the airport at 8 AM, but rather than sleeping, he laid on the bed, trying to comprehend everything that was happening.
In the morning, the bus was waiting for them outside his house. As he reached the doorway, his aunt stopped him and said, "Ron, would you mind taking Ela with you? She's been insisting on going to the trip." She asked. "Um, I'm traveling to another country aunt, and also, this is an educational trip, how can she join just like that? Also, the visa, tickets, everything!" Ron was confused. "You don't have to worry about that as we talked to the professor in-charge and they don't have any problem in making a seat for her as one of the students backed off at the last minute, and tickets are already done for. Same goes for her Visa." She explained. "I mean, you've handled everything so um, sure I guess." Ron hesitated but agreed. "Well, that was quite unexpected." Ron exclaimed as he boarded the bus with Ela. Not having any friend other than Sam, this was a win situation for him.
At the airport, everyone was waiting for the boarding process. Ron was standing next to Ela and Sam when he suddenly heard a voice. A voice he was not familiar with but still felt warming. "Turn around." The voice said. "Did you hear that?" Ron asked. "Hear what? I heard nothing." Sam replied. "Same, I didn't hear anything. You need some water?" Ela asked. Ron turned around and saw three armored men. "Ela! Look at those people. Their armor resemble the ones I fought yesterday. The only difference is that these guys have a mask on. Looks like it ain't gonna be easy. I'll rush to the washroom to avoid causing a scene here." Ron explained. He was going to rush when Ela grabbed him and said, "Are you dumb? They're trying to kill you and you'll just be there alone? I'm coming with you." "Wait, what exactly do you plan on doing there with three armored men trying to kill us?" Ron asked. "I'll use the weapon! You fight barehanded. You're a master at combat anyway." Ela grinned. "Argh, fine." He grunted as the two rushed to the washroom when Sam left for the boarding process.
"Okay, just wait here. I'll call you in when it'll be safe." Ron said. He entered the washroom and checked for any people inside. He then called Ela in when the coast was clear. "Alright, let me draw their attention as they'll start looking in the group of students." Ron explained. "Alright." She replied.
Ron looked out of the washroom and saw them talking to the students. He found a plastic bottle and threw it towards them. The bottle hit one of their heads, drawing their attention towards the target. "It's him. At the washroom's entry. Let's go." One of them said as they rushed towards the washroom.
They saw Ron standing at the end of the washroom. One of them rushed in to attack him when Ela took him by surprise, using the weapon. She blasted him directly inside the urinal, knocking him out. The other two were shocked and enraged. They rushed in together to punch him with their magical abilities when Ron heard the voice again. "Don't move, stay still. You'll know the right time. Punch one of them directly on his chest." Ron didn't wanna risk his life as this was a deadly task. He had multiple vital areas open, but he had faith in the voice. He closed his eyes to calm himself down. When he opened them, suddenly, everything went slow. The guys running towards him to attack him became very slow, as if they weren't moving. One of the guys came in front of the other, which Ron took full advantage of as he punched him in the chest with all his power. The punch burst opened the guy, killing him instantly, while pushing the other backwards. Everything became normal again. Enraged with the loss of two fellow soldiers, the last guy activated his armored suit, which converted into some super armor, without leaving any open spots. "Calm your muscles and rush behind him. You'll have enough time to punch him twice." The voice said. "What are you making me do!" Ron grunted as he ran behind the guy. Again, everything went slow. Ron was able to punch the armor twice, which destroyed it in seconds and blasted him into a corner. Ron shouted, "Ela, throw the weapon towards the guy!" Ela was confused but did as she was told. Ron rushed at the guy again, while everything became slow yet again. He didn't get time to even react when Ron grabbed the weapon and used it on the guy. The weapon this time vaporized him directly. As soon as that happened, the others were also vaporized. "You weren't lying about them vaporizing, but I don't understand, how come you were moving so fast?" Ela asked. "Fast? Me? No, everything was just slow. I was normal; it was those guys who were slow. And you as well." Ron replied. "Nope. We were pretty normal. You were running around so fast, punching them at such a high speed. Even grabbed the weapon midair and used it at such a high speed. You were definitely fast. Care to explain?" Ela exclaimed. This made Ron speechless. "I don't have words right now. For me, everything was very slow. I heard a voice, that gave me orders, like standing still and punching the guy or running behind the other and punching him twice. Everything became slow when I did those tasks. I just closed my eyes to calm myself down, and suddenly, my mind started to follow the instructions. After that, everything became slow." Ron explained. Ela held Ron hand out of the blue to calm him down as he was getting anxious over what happened when Sam rushed to the washroom and saw them. "Um, yeah, you guys are weird. Though, I'm not judging, continue, though don't take much time as boarding is starting and the two of you are left for boarding in process." Sam said. "Huh? Are you out of your mind? Why on earth would I be doing stuff with her? I was explaining something to her goddamnit!" Ron grunted. "You aren't half wrong Sam. But we are taking it slow. You see, Ron is a shy kinda guy." Ela mocked him. "Why are you feeding into his delusions. She's messing with you Sam. Forget it, let's go." Ron grunted. "Fine, whatever. Let's go guys. Boarding is starting." Sam replied.
As the plane took off, Ron felt a bit relieved. "I just hope things will be quite right now. I'm way too exhausted for anything to happen. I want to sleep." Ron gasped. Within 20 minutes of take-off, five people stood up and activated their suits. "The plane has been hijacked. Target is not in vision. Order approved: Witnesses are to be killed with the target." One of the said in his earpiece. "They hijacked the plane!? Argh! I'm done with these guys." Ron grunted. Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice, "Close your eyes and chant this spell." "There we go again." Ron gasped as he chanted a spell with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes, everything seemed way slower than before. His vision improved, and he was able to notice even the slightest movement. He got off his seat and ran towards the attackers. "Chant! Wind magic, tornado!" The voice ordered. "Wind Magic, tornado!" Ron chanted. He felt tingles in his palm which he opened and was surprised to see small tornados there. He threw the tornados at the attackers. The tornados grew in size and only sucked them in without harming anyone else or even damaging the plane at all. The tornados spiraled them within, shredding their bodies into small pieces with no blood loss. Again, the body pieces vaporized into thin air. Everyone in the plane was shocked, including Ron himself, who was able to use magic. "Well, now everyone knows about this. Fuck my life." Ron grunted. "Don't worry about it. Close your eyes and focus your energy on them. Then chant, Pause." The voice commanded. Ron followed its order and opened his eyes. To his surprise, time itself stopped. Everyone paused, including the airplane midair. He and Ela were able to move freely while everyone else were paused. "What!?" Ela exclaimed. "Now join your hands together and again focus your energy on your eyes. Wish for everyone forgetting what they saw here right now and then open your eyes as if you're letting out the energy from them." The voice explained and commanded. "At this point, you're just making a clown out of me it seems." Ron grunted, trying to talk back to the voice. He followed the orders and opened his eyes, which led to a slightly visible energy pulsation, which knocked off everyone, excluding Ela. After five minutes, everyone woke up. Ron rushed to Sam and asked, "Hey, you, okay?" "Yeah, why? Did something happen? After boarding the plane, I slept, I guess? I don't really remember. What happened?" Sam asked. "I see. Nothing happened. You looked like you knocked out, so I came to check on you." Ron explained as he came back to his seat, giggling from inside. "I can't believe it. I altered their memory and made them forget what happened." Ron exclaimed. Ela confirmed from other people what they remembered, and it was the same for everyone. "You really were able to do it." Ela gasped.
Life took a turn for him. Just two days earlier, he was living a normal college kid, with a normal life, and just two days later, he fought a total of nine armored people with deadly weapons and was able to kill them with ease. And he was able to use magic, which he didn't even know existed. He became a superhuman. "Ron, how did you feel when you did that pulsation thing?" Ela asked. "It was an odd feeling. Like I was just takin orders from the voice. I don't know if I can do that again though, at least not without the guidance of the voice. Anyways, I am highly exhausted, and I just wanna rest up. I'm having a pretty bad headache. I'll just go to sleep." He gasped. "Yeah, you've done a lot since yesterday. Rest up." Ela said as she tucked her hand from beneath his. After a minute or two, Ela fell asleep. "I was the one who needs rest and look at her, all cozy." Ron gasped as he fell asleep.
After a long flight, they landed in Japan. At the arrival gates, a bus was waiting for them that took them straight to their hotel. After checking in, Ron, Sam and Ela took one room. When they entered, they were flabbergasted with how huge the room was, with a personal swimming pool. "This is so orgasmic!" Sam commented as he sprang on his bed. Within instance, he fell asleep. "There we go. I'll go and take a bathe." Ela said as she left for the bathroom. Ron entered the balcony. "One hell of a view from here." He thought. The view of Mount Fuji from the balcony really made him excited for the trip. Suddenly, he became nauseous. He rushed to the other bathroom and puked. "Damn it. All that moving in the plane. Motion sickness really got to me bad." He gasped. After taking a bath, he changed into something cozy and laid on his bed. "I'll just take a nap. Not really feeling well." He told Ela.
