Chapter 20 - The Kinetic One

"And that's all you need to know about the Academy, or well, all that I could show you today. Tomorrow I'll show you everything you need to know about the clubs"

Ean explained as he gave Shu a thumbs up, while Shu walked beside him

"Clubs?"

Shu questioned while scratching the back of his head as he held onto the box that was given to him by his teacher

"Yeah, they're like teams. People mostly join clubs that they personally like though, I think the combat club would suit you though, I'm in it too, in fact, I'm the club president"

Said Ean with a proud expression as Shu simply stared at him for a few seconds to then begin to chuckle as he placed both of his hands behind his head, resting the box on top of his head

"I don't know what that means, Ean"

Shu replied making Ean sigh, as in, giving up

"Well anyway, I gotta go, see you tomorrow!"

Said Ean before running to an opposite side from where Shu was headed

"Ok, see ya!"

Shu replied as he stopped walking, his smile disappearing as a frown grew on his face

"What's your problem, huh? You've been following us since we came out of the Academy"

Said Shu as if he was talking to the air while all of a sudden a chuckle was heard, a deep slow chuckle as everyone around Shu stopped moving

"I didn't think you'd take notice of me. Reimi was right, you are extraordinary, beyond the capabilities of a student, you're existence itself proofs that the words of our king are true"

Was what a deep voice said, a voice similar to that of the chuckle before as a man walked out of a corner between two houses holding what seemed to be an adept stone on his hand.

The man was small, with dark black eyes, black long hair, and a robe similar to that of a monk's. The man was floating, his legs crossed together, one on top of another as a white dense aura spewed from the edges of his body

"The hell are you even talking about? More importantly, what happened to these people? Why aren't they moving?"

Shu questioned as his body was surrounded by a bright blue aura taking a simple fighting stance

"Please, I'm not here to fight. And as for these people, I've simply slowed down their kinetic energy, they won't be moving until I decide they can"

The man explained as he stretched his hand towards Shu, clutching his fist, suddenly pulling the boy toward himself

"What the hell!?"

Shu questioned while his body suddenly stopped moving right in front of the man

"I feel...hmm, there is something weird about you, you have a feeling to you that reminds me of the Dragon Scale our king possesses"

The man whispered while lowering Shu's body to the ground with a simple gesture of his hand

"Well, I've met you, and I've enjoyed our meeting, and I have no other questions for you, thus, I shall be taking my leave"

Said the man, preparing to fly off before being stopped by Shu

"Hold on, you suddenly interrogated me, how about you give me a fight, is the best you can do for wasting my time"

Said Shu as the man glared at him before snapping his fingers as they suddenly appeared above a mountain, an empty mountain, no trees, no rocks, just grass

"What did you just do?"

Shu questioned as the man landed on the ground, walking around as if he was getting used to walking for the first time

"I simply accelerated our Kinetic energy and moved us far away from the Kingdom, think nothing of it. Consider this my gift to you for taking your so precious-"

The man was about to finish his sentence but a quick kick was suddenly targeted to his neck, of course, the man avoided the kick smiling in the process

"That's quite a lot of kinetic energy..."

The man whispered before holding onto Shu's leg with his right hand slamming Shu's body against the ground right afterward before throwing him into the air pulling him back down to the ground with force creating a crater in the process

"For a student that is"

Said the man before Shu stood up from the ground as his body was completely surrounded by a bright blue aura

"Taekwondo Style, Himura Kick: The Edge of the three Hawks"

Shu suddenly appeared in front of the small man, sliding through the ground as if it was ice, before sending three instant kicks toward the man in front. One to the neck, the other to the ribs, and the last one to the head, but right before the kicks even reached the man's body they were slowed down, as if God didn't want him to harm the man

"I didn't feel a thing..how about"

Said Shu before backing away from the man, taking a boxing stance before weaving from left to right as he began to get closer to the man, surrounding his right arm with his blue aura

"Boxing Style, Himura Punch: Burst of Wind"

Said Shu as he would then slide to the right pulling his arm backward as he then proceeded to swing at the man's ribs, his arm moving so fast that only the trail of his aura was left behind, but yet again right at the last moment he felt that feeling again, as If his attack was slowed, or rather, as if the impact of the attack was taken away

"Tch, How about"

Shu exclaimed in annoyance as the man simply stared at him with an expression of amusement

"Karate Style, Himura Palm: High Five"

Shu yelled while charging his right hand with the same blue energy he used to charge his body before slapping his palm again the man's chest but, it was of no use as the same thing happened. The man ended up unscathed

"Ugh!!, I give up!"

Shu yelled before gripping his own hair in frustration while the man simply watched, before beginning to float yet again

"That was Kinetic Control. I control one of the fundamental energies of movement, Kinetic Energy, it's the energy one gathers while running, while walking, while moving, I'm practically a god"

The man said before chuckling as Shu simply glared at him with irritation

"You're basically telling me I can't touch you and that's highly annoying. Anyway, my mother might be worried if I get home late so could you like, you know, snap me there"

Said Shu as he tried imitating the gesture The man did before taking him there

"But of course. Let's meet again in the academy"

Said the man before snapping his fingers causing Shu to appear right in front of his house as if nothing had happened

"At the Academy? Is he like a teacher or something? Well, it doesn't really matter, I'm hungry so, let's get to eating!"

Shu said to himself before opening the door to his house with a hard kick as he then yelled

"Jenna I'm home!"
