Ohma ended up testing up his newly awakened powers. While it was working rather well on these small animals but he wasn't sure how it would fare against a warlock. His aura was like a parasite that actually made the target subservient depending upon the baptism it went through. Ohma had a hunch that the control wasn't limited to mind of target but it rather targeted the soul. He wasn't sure about his hunch there wasn't any proof but he trusted this intuition.
Ohma got bored soon and casually waved his right hand. The billowing pressure turned both dead and alive animals to dust. He flew up towards his airship. His speed was much faster than before. As he neared his destination a larger airship was seen hovering above his. The new airship was a lot larger and actually contained laser cannons. Its design was a lot different and compacted with higher technology. Ohma stopped 300 meters from airship and tried activating autopilot using remote signals but that didn't worked. Most likely it was jammed or Ohma had no intention of moving ahead. If he goes any further it'll be hard to escape from laser cannons. As ohma stood his ground Amara was pondering inside the airship.
"No. 1 champion of second best academy, the most famous rising star of malar. Why would someone like you come to a desolate place like this."
They were all curious about that. While they knew ohma was a late bloomer but they weren't able to connect this place to ohma's home.
After about half a minute a figure came out of the bigger airship. He was a man with a burly body. Completely covered in black suit from head to toe his face was unrecognizable. This person was Dev. He was the first one who volunteered to test Ohma. While all nine of them had indeed surrendered to Amara considering his power and future but that did not mean they were completely loyal to him. If Ohma was strong enough to topple Amara they would without a doubt change sides. Amara was also aware of this as long as they were still cadets nothing was set in stone. But he didn't care, he was confident in himself. This confident wasn't a bluff. It came from being recognized by his peers. It came from his achievements that put his elders to shame.
Ohma scrutinized his opponent for a few seconds. This man was strong. He would have lost before if he fought against him but now he didn't even felt tiny bit pressure from this man. But Ohma was still on guard not knowing how many such people were inside the airship.
As Ohma was still pondering Dev made his move.
BOOOOM
He pushed himself with full power clenching his fist he aimed for ohma.
BOOOOOOM
Followed but another thundering impact as two fists collided. Ohma wasn't to be outdone, only utilizing a quarter of his power he not only stopped Dev's advance but also pushed him back.
Astonished Dev was send reeling backwards. Dev was shocked. He prided himself in his strength but was pushed back by Ohma. The shock only lasted for a millisecond before he composed himself. A liquid substance came out from the pores of his body followed by his suit getting bloated and
KRAAACCKKK
He ripped his suit and what was standing before Ohma was a 4 meter giant. It was black in cover but instead of muscles it was made of iron. This was Dev's transformation ability that turned him into a giant made of iron. Dev could not be defeated unless his real body inside this thick frame of metal was affected. There were only two people who were able to do so, zara and Amara. The metal surrounding his body was like a extension of his body. He was able to influence its properties to some extent. That's why despite being a good conductor of electricity he was able to defeat his adversaries with lightning element. With that he punched ohma.
BOOM
Another explosion went through but this time outcome was different. Dev's hand was twisted in an unnatural way. The strong metallic hand was destroyed in one punch.
KRYAAGH
An excruciating cry rebounded as Dev felt pain never like before. Ohma without waiting followed with a punch in the gut. Dev was thrown backwards but before he could hit the airship a tornado formed beneath him making him fall on his feet. Eight more people cam out of the airship lead by none other than Zara. One of them went towards Dev to check on his condition it was Derk.
They all decided to watch the show while Dev pummeled Ohma but Reality turned out to be different. Dev was defeated overwhelmingly and Amara ordered them to assist Dev in defeating Ohma. Zara understood this person wasn't to be taken lightly and now Amara was curious about his limitations since Ohma mustn't have went through second awakening for too long yet that kind of strength was unusual. All of them were covered in black suit from head to toe. It was impossible to recognize them and even if Ohma saw their faces he might not recognize them.
A blue arc was made around Dev which reversed his twisted hand to its original form. This was ability of time reversal of Ron 4th champion of their academy.
Ohma was still observing them but seeing Ron's abilities he grew cautious, 9 people meant 9 different powers he would be in trouble if made a single mistake.
"Who are you all? Answer me." Ohma wasn't feeling delighted being attacked by strangers out of nowhere he already went easy once.
"Are you that curious? How about it defeat us and you will know but if you lose than your fate will be in our hands." it was zara who spoke.
"Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?" ohma spoke in a threatening tone.
"That isn't for you to decide" with that all of them moved.
Ohma inferred that there must be more people in the ship that's why she was so confident.
The one taking lead was Drek he turned into a golden man unlike Dev his while body turns into gold.
BOOOOOOM
Derk blocked ohma's punched by crossing his hands but before Ohma could follow with second he was struck with a strong gust of wind from behind which destroyed his balance and a heavy punch landed on his face throwing him behind. Ohma tried to balance himself in air but a large tornado already swept him and a thick black thunder bombarded him in the air flattening him on the ground.
This all happened too fast ohms was bewildered, his body was electrocuted and was feeling numb. He saw both Dev and Derk running towards him. He also jumped towards them but the ground was already turned into ice along with his foot. He destroyed the ice but large icicles striped him from above. They were hard and large in amount. Suddenly ohma felt like everything was moving too fast, no he was being slowed that person must have used his ability. Ohma was right Ron had immobilized him and Dev, Delk both were upon him. Icicles were about to strike from above and and another person was about to cast fire on him. If he took all of them head on he would be injurd to some extent. But he had a new idea he wanted to try.
*******
Zara was observing ohma inside of a blue circle made by Ron, she saw a dark purple aura slowly make way through. She had a bad feeling but before she could act the aura was already upon her. She tried to resist but could not move, that aura was entering her body at a fast rate and she could feel herself losing a important part of herself everytime it did.
**********
Huff Huff
After around 20 seconds ohma stopped releasing the aura, he was thoroughly spent. He was never before so tired. Crushing them all with overwhelming strength was possible for him it would have taken a little longer but he wanted to know if his aura could be applied in battle.
Thud
But all he saw 9 collapsed bodies. He did felt a bit of resonance from them.
And again a figure came out from the airship. It was Amara who had a astonished expression.
