hhhhhhhhh" inhale …..
"Hhhhhhhhh" exhale...
Fuck that attack almost fucked me up…
"Cough" "Cough"
Who the hell….
How is this fucking possible….
That's, That's not a fucking...
(35 Days earlier)..
It's been 15 days ever since I woke up from my long slumber into a new world, they just have discovered some things that humans made.
For example there are different type of vehicles now that don't require horses to move them around, and one of them is called a car.
The innovation behind this one was very clear, moving from one place to another, that was simple enough for anyone to understand but then it has classes. Like the sedans, sports cars, hatchbacks, trucks, SUVs, supercars, hyper cars, subs,,, and so on but my point is.
If you want to move from one place to another then just do it, why are you buying a car that is what's the price of a freaking land or house I still don't understand how that makes sense but I would say the cars are really beautiful but according to the AI," I wouldn't quite understand until I have driven one by myself" so I guess you then..
It's all just been like going to school and so on for the past 15 days.
(20thth Day)
"Um, can you explain to me why I am actually tired this morning." I said barely able to sit down straight on the bed.
"well, your workout sessions have been really…let's just say intense."
*Been doing, 200 push ups, sit ups, crunches and intense weight lifting*
"Oh well, I guess you are right, so today I will be on a different path, I will take a walk around the forest for a change." I said as I walked to the couch to sit.
"well that would be great"
It was finally settled, I will be going out today after I think 18 days.
I took a cold shower like I normally do and then well one of those cargo pants and the shirt.
Not long after I had breakfast that that breakfast it's finally time for me to venture out.
Stepping out, the rays of the yellow burning star hits my face, it was the warm, like every other morning buy today felt somewhat different.
I really had no idea on where to walk to but then I remember the last battle I had, not the one on the mountain but the one by the roadside. I wonder what will be left of that place by now.
I decided to walk there, after all, where else did I know, plus I don't want to ask for my assistants help, I want to do this my self.
This place really reminded me of home, the trees, the water and the smell, I just have a problem with the cabin being somewhat close to the road but that's also okay, I mean it's not like an idiot is dumb enough to walk to an unknown cabin and open the door or knock….right.
"Jackpot." I said as I noticed the holes in the asphalt. This was not just any hole, this was caused by bullets, yeah, I remember…but the bodies and the burnt truck, all of those are gone, I see. That bitch did it, Regina or whatever her name is.
"Ughhhh"I sighed.. "I'll just head back then" I said, as I walked back to the cabin but then I wondered, why don't I just go by the city.
Oh, wait I have no money and that's needed in this time, I have heard that people go crazy about it, shit what do I do now.
I thought as I walked back slowly but then it came to me.
This is a nice space, and a quiet one too, no one and no vehicle passes here like the ones in the city, this is a place that is mostly hostile.
Which means I can test the results of my training here.
"Hmm" I said out loud as I stopped in my tracks, looking around and keenly listening to every sound and indeed the coast was clear.
Alright, first, this will be a dash to the cabin. I brought out the map and looked as I calculated.
"4 miles." I said, finalizing my calculations. 6.437 kilometers, alright then, let's see… it's going to take around 1 hour or so to run to that destination that if I were to run at average human speed but I want to do it faster.
I focused on the road. In human form I can use 1 art at a time so here goes nothing.
"manus movere ad penetrandum venti.....nunc sum celeritas" I chanted as my art began to manifest.
My heart pumped furiously, my blood circulation accelerated, my very body felt light, I have become light, I have the quality of speed.
""Hhhhhhh" I deeply exhaled then I set off, one step pushing me further than the next while still paying attention to curves and swerves, the sound of piercing through the wind as trees obstruct the flow of the wind… This was pure excitement. I could visually process faster in this state, I couldn't look at the time just yet, I needed to get to my destination first.
"Fsssshhh" I slid to a stop on the softer grounds in front of the cabin, my blood still pumping and my heart still racing.
That was exciting.
I could accelerate faster now, I could also inhale deeper, my lung capacity and every other thing has been heightened, sure it's normally heightened whenever I use this art, but now it's different this is more improved, I feel like I can push further.
I walked into the cabin, grabbing a watch and activating it, I wanted to know how fast I was going, this is something new for me, the measurement and computation of speed, we didn't have this in my time, we only knew something is fast by horses, that's all we had to compare. But now there are cars and more improved calculations.
"welcome bac…."…. "I have no time to talk assistant, I need your assistance and that can work by you being in the watch." I said as I picked up the watch and marched out.
"Oh, okay.. but please note my functions here are limited, I will operate at 20 percent, so I will…." It explained.
"Yes, yes, yes, you will only be able to calculate my heart rate, speed, and basic things right?" I said .
"precisely." The watch responded… "well that's all I need." I said, Walking up to the road and getting prepared to run.
Alright let's get it.
" HHHHHhhhh" I exhaled then. "DASH!!" I was on the run again, I felt I could go faster. My breathing had become easier than before, my drag had become less.
"Faster" I said to myself, focusing on the road and then…
"Beep..Beep…zzzzzzz" The watch sounded as it vibrated vigorously.
"Argggh" I let out as I opted to stop.
"Why did you do that." I said in annoyance as I tried to calm the hype down.
"You have passed the mark." It responded.
"Huh?" I replied in confusion.
"You passed the place you previously started from." It said.
"Oh." I replied, panting heavily.
The special and most dangerous things about the speed art is that, it has a hype that comes with it, when activated, you talk faster, you are restless, you feel your very veins vibrate but then at the same time, if not controlled, it can lead to fetal exhaustion and oh yeah, it can also cause your heart to burst. I mean that's just a side note so..
"So how many minutes was that?" I asked as I waited but then I wondered how it knew I was here when but then.
"Your heart rate is….."
"I'll say over 170bpm right, or maybe 175bpm" A voice echoed from this side on the road.
"….172 beats per minute" the Ai Replied …
I was shocked, normally I would notice when someone is around but this was something different I did not notice anything.
"Hello? and you are" I said as I looked in that direction…
This was a tall muscular man with beards and white dreadlocks, his color tone was yellow but at the same time he seemed strong…
"An average guy who loves to jug I guess" He replied with a smile.
"172 huh, I guess I'm not as accurate as I used to be, But I was still right…. Technically" He said walking closer.
"yeah th….." I was saying when he interrupted.
"That was a pretty nice distance you covered but still at average speed, though I feel like it is almost above average but it's still hanging in the balance" He said looking at me.
"At average speed? Well I guess that is your assumption because you did not see me run" I said turning back to head to the cabin.
"Oh I did, you ran from the cabin 4 miles back right?" He said with a smirk.
"I'm sorry, is there a problem ? why the hell are you stalking me." I asked immediately, already getting infuriated by his personality..
"Stalking? Wait, huh? Me? stalking you? Nah, you are not important enough for that." He said replied me…
"Look bro, do we have a problem?" I asked already agitated and then he said…
"Nah, we don't im just playing, we fine, see you around." He said as he turned back…
But little did I know this was only the beginning.
