Chapter 26 - Meeting Remaining Team Mates...

Hey, you two. Maikel seems to have prepared a surprise for us. Let's just go inside, the guy in front said it to others with a little smile on his face.

Hearing that and looking at the guy in front, the guy behind smirked and said,

"Would you look at that? Our leader looks happy and excited. I haven't seen our leader look this interested in any matter for so long. Looks like Maikel really prepared some interesting surprise for us."

They headed inside. I am also excited to meet them. I should go downstairs.

I was excited but didn't hurry. Before I came down Maikel already met them.

"Welcome leader. Long time no see" Maikel with spreading his hands towards the guy in front.

Did I hear him correctly? Is he the leader? Or am I just overhearing things..... I should go confirm it myself.

The one in front replied Maikel,

" What the hell are you saying? It's just been two weeks... No wait, less than two weeks. And Stop it. That's embarrassing"

"Well, I heard you have prepared some big surprise for us? What is it?" The girl behind asked.

!!!

"Ohhhhh.... you guys already noticed?", Maikel "We noticed it? Did you hang it outside or what that you expect us to easily notice it. I didn't see anything. The leader said you have prepared a surprise for us. You got my hopes up and you better not betray our feelings." The guy behind said.

"I guess everyone in the gym as usual?"

"Yes. Let's go to the gym. As for your surprise, just follow me", Maikel

"What's with Akira and Maikel today? They are acting strange."

"....."

They reached the gym and met everyone.

"You guys are back", Hoshino.

They were talking about their experience, about what they experienced this past 2 weeks. And then I came to the gym while they were talking.

I am a bit nervous. But... I should go and greet them...

"Ummm...Hello!!"

"Hmm????.... Who is this guy? How did he get in there?" Unknown guy, the guy behind said.

Maikel came forward,

"Let me do the introduction. Irwan, this guy here with green hair is called (Arham Mashal), this girl next to him with pink hair is (Anabia Awil). And the guy with red hair is called (Akira Hitoshi). He is also our leader."

So I heard it right. He is the leader after all.

The girl called Ananbia Awil asked Maikel, "How did you remember leader's full name? We always call him leader so we actually forgot his name."

"Didn't you just called 'Akira' a few minutes ago?"

"Oh haha, I meant I don't remember his full name. But how can I forget the name he goes by?"

Maikel laughed and was feeling proud, "Hahaha, That's why I am known as the intelligent one."

"Anyways, this boy here is our group's youngest and the last member, Irwan Valdiger. He is the surprise leader was talking about."

!!

"WHAT?? You already found our last member? I thought it would take at least 5 or 6 more years. And you found him already?" Guy named Arham Mashal said.

Maikel then said, "And also to make one thing clear, I and the leader found him almost 2 years ago. But we thought it would be best to observe him for a while before we invite him in our team. Cause he didn't activate his power by accident like all of us. And there are some other reasons."

There's just one line roaming in my mind. The girl in front is beautiful.

I was looking at Anabia Awil. I couldn't move my eyes. She was so pretty. But I snapped out of it due to the noises around.

Arham pet my head with a satisfying expression and said,

"Well, I would have been really happy if you would have bought something cool for me. But this surprise is also really unexpected and awesome. I can buy things later. But this present is something else."

" Heh...Heh..heh" Maikel, Hoshino, and Kota laughed like when a devil gets interested in something.

Anabia and Arham freaked out a bit.

"Yes. He is indeed the surprise. But I wouldn't have said it a surprise in front of leader since he was already aware of his presence cause leader saw him before." Maikel.

" Yeah. This makes sense I guess. But what are you trying to say exactly? " Akira Hitoshi asked Maikel while looking at me.

"As we all had information about him, He supposed to have lightning element and he should be the special one amongst us. But his story about how he got his power, how he was able to activate his power for the first time, everything is new to us." Maikel.

"Let's go sit down a bit and I will explain everything to you" Maikel.

After that Maikel explained to him every single detail. About how I saw a shadow-like figure or something in my dream and how I lost control over my body and second-time desire to kill someone in a conflict. And I used only strength but not lightning. Everything surprised them. But what picked their interest most was that shadow being in my dream.

"Hmm... It's really weird. It's a troublesome matter. If he lost control over his body the first time that means something took over his body. And also changing mind and desire to kill someone as well, There's maybe something resides in his body that we are unaware of" Akira said that with a worrying expression on his face.

" I am a bit scared right now. What is that thing? Is it good for him to have that thing inside him or bad? I can just think of taking it as his special ability and think of it in a positive to comfort myself." Arham said that while looking at me.

"Well, we forgot to mention his physics is far better than our Hoshino. His growth rate is exceptional."

" Yeah. I told him to do every exercise 750 each. Although he sweet a lot while doing it, he didn't get tired. I feel like he can even do 1500 of each in a row, right now."

"So be it.. his today's goal is 1500 of each."

"Well, after completing it you should take a rest for today. From tomorrow we will do Every single exercise 1500 each, just one time. You will be lifting heavy things tomorrow as well. By that I mean you will be using dumble. And you don't need to use the treadmill from today onwards. You will run outside with me.", Hoshino.

"OK" I nodded
