Chương 2: R-ravi...?
"Let's go," Sophia said after she got up from the floor.
She then approached Bibek who quickly changed his facial expression from concern and regret to a smile. He didn't want her to realize what was he feeling.
Then they went to where they were supposed to train. It was in the building where the city guards were because they were the ones who trained the young ones who wished to get training to enter the 'Pis Aller' academy. Only after the permission of the city guard's instructor can they join the academy, otherwise they can't.
Bibek and Sophia wanted to join the academy so they could get permission to travel freely in the world without anything to worry about and to search for Ravi.
The reason being, that only a student of Pis Aller or a veteran soldier licensed by a guild were able to travel freely because the threat of monsters roaming in the world remains, and traveling outside can be more dangerous than living inside a city or village, although they were not that safe either.
Sophia and Bibek soon reached the training venue, it was just like any other training avenue that everyone knows, a big field about 200m filled with sand and some dummies for shooting practice.
When they arrived 4 more participants were already running around the field carrying bags of loads, one in their back and two in their hand, panting heavily.
Bibek and Sophia ignored them and headed towards the instructor who was observing the trainees from the center of the ground while shouting," With just these small bags, you are already out of breath. How the fuck can you even think about killing the monsters, if get tired even before running towards them. Run you pussies."
Bibek heard him, and couldn't help but frown at his rude way of speaking 'Well, we sure gonna get a load of earful.'
And as expected, they got," You sure got guts to come late during the first day of training, huh? You treating me lightly huh, little cunts?" The instructor said angrily, he was pissed.
Bibek was about to apologize, when he felt heavy, not that he became fat but he felt there was a huge load pressing on his body and before he could say anything, the instructor spoke but this time with a mocking smile on his face.
" If you could stand for 10 sec then I will forgive this first offense of yours, but if you can't then get the duck out of here right now." His grin turned into disdain as he said the last line.
Bibek and Sophia both were feeling the pressure and knew it was the instructor's power, maybe related to gravity, Bibek thought. And the pressure increased with each second.
At first, it was bearable, Bibek felt as if a weight of 40 kg had been added to his body, and it wasn't much for him but as time increased the weight increased to 50..60..70..100, and when it crossed the 100 kg line that's when Bibek felt the real pressure.
His knees were bent down and he was sweating profusely and wasn't able to breathe, when the instructor spoke again,
" What's wrong? Already giving up and you want to join Pis Aller, just go away and hide like a coward inside your house. You aren't worthy enough to fight a monster."
Bibek felt blood boiling this time, the disdainful voice of the instructor and his rude way of calling him a coward enraged him, he gritted his teeth even veins popped on his forehead and he persisted in handling the pressure which soon reached 200 kg and 10 sec ended.
When the pressure was lifted Bibek fell to the ground, sweat covered his body, and restless for breadth.
After a few seconds, he calmed down and looked, and the instructor waved his hand a few droplets of water gathered in front of Bibek forming a baseball-sized water ball.
The instructor sternly said," Drink it." and looked towards Sophia, Bibek drank the water and stood up, only then did he realize Sophia was fine even with that pressure.
There was not a drip of sweat in her body, forget about sweat, she maintained her cold expression as if nothing happened.
Just as he was, the instructor was surprised as well, and he asked her if she had trained under anyone before, Sophia shook her head in disagreement, and with a rare smile on his face, he nodded, " Good. You are worth to teach."
Then the instructor was about to give them instructions about today's training when Bibek asked, " Instructor, earlier you used gravity power on us and then you created water, are you a dual power holder?"
The instructor shook his head and said sternly," No, I am not a dual power holder, my power is to control water, and what I used earlier to put pressure on you was 'aura'. It's kind of an ability different than superpower which can enhance the efficiency of the superpower or use independently to attack and defense and to also put pressure on another being."
Bibek and Sophia were both surprised, though she didn't show it, and both were happy to learn something new.
Afterward, the instructor named Brian told them about today's training which was stamina building, and handed them 5 bagpacks, 2 extra as punishments, and told them to run 100 laps.
Then without retorting, both Sophia and Bibek started their laps.
The bags each weighed about 40 kg, which totaled 200 kg same as the aura pressure they both felt. But carrying the weight was easier for them compared to before, which Bibek felt clearly.
After acquiring the superpower 8 years ago, that power also provided them with great adaptability which meant even with a little effort they could easily surpass human limits. For example, if you continue to run for a week, then you can easily match the speed of Olympic runners.
After 10 laps of running, Bibek was starting to feel tired, though he was adjusting to the weight he was carrying, it was still difficult in the beginning phase. Great adaptability also came with tiredness, as the body needed time to adjust to the new strength.
After more than 40 laps Bibek started to pant heavily and his speed also slowed down, but he didn't stop running. Opposite to him Sophia was not tired at all, and this time even Bibek was surprised as he felt the weight she was carrying was feathers, so she didn't have any problem with that.
As Bibek completed his 60th lap, he completely adapted to the weight and started to run at a speed of 35 km/ hr.
Brain was pleased to see that, but was still surprised Sophia was adapting far too quickly. She completed her 100 laps when Bibek finished his 60, and her speed was constantly increasing. And even after finishing her 100 laps, she didn't stop and completed 250 laps matching Bibek's 100 laps.
They both stopped their run and threw the bags to the ground, Sophia was completely fine her cold expression remained the same and Bibek was tired but not that much that he needed to take a rest.
"Are you good?" Sophia asked Bibek, for the first time that day.
Bibek just nodded and couldn't help but glance a few times at her wanting to ask how she was fine even with all that.
Sophia who noticed his gaze answered his curiosity, " Even I don't know how I don't feel any tiredness at all. It seemed these laps were nothing and I can do far better than this easily and faster." She said but without changing any facial expressions.
While they were talking, Brain along with the other 4 trainees who completed their laps far before Sophia and Bibek, came near them.
The six of them stand in a line facing Brain and the 4 boys couldn't help but take a few glances at Sophia.
Well, it couldn't be helped, as she was a beauty, her blue hair which reached down to her back, her Sapphire-like blue eyes and a perfect facial feature and her slim hourglass-like body which stood out even in the track field clothes and her ethereal aura with a cold expression made her as if she was a divine existence incomparable to anyone.
The 4 of them only stopped after sensing 2 glares at them.
Then with a stern gaze, Brain started speaking, " Take a break for 15 min and after that, we will continue again with double the load and laps as well. And from tomorrow we will start practicing with your superpower and get familiar with those powers to properly control them."
'what? We'll have to run again and with double weight and laps?' that was the thought of them all, well of 5 of them Sophia wasn't bothered by it at all.
"Disper-" and just when Brain was about to send them off, he sensed something and he felt a chill run down his spine, and not just him Sophia did as well.
Brain turned around and narrowed his eyes as if he could see through the buildings and his eyes focused on a certain direction, that was the entrance of the city they live in.
When Brain found the source, his eyes widened in shock, an enormous aura pressure much higher than his own was surrounded by a man who was walking as if he was drunk, his steps unstable.
He easily destroyed the barrier around the village and the guards who were maintaining the barrier immediately sent an emergency signal to all the guards sectioned there.
And within a period of 10 seconds the whole base was in uproar, they immediately prepared for the attack as they didn't know whether that was a friend, except one.
"R-ravi...?" A single name escaped from the mouth of Sophia as everyone now felt the pressure as if they were pressed down by a mountain.
