"Thanks for showing this to me. It took me a few hours to master." The Ancient One taunts as the chains pull back like a snake ready to strike.

As his mother uses his own move perfectly, Tom couldn't help but feel slightly disgruntled. He spent forever coming up with that move and she mastered it in no time at all.

'No, I shouldn't think like that. She's been using eldritch energy for far longer than anyone on the planet. I did the hard work of creating the move itself. She just had to learn it.' Tom consoled himself.

"Let's start off easy and slowly ramp our way upwards." The Ancient One comments as two chains with swords at the end snap forward at Tom's position.

Once again, Tom's slow-motion vision kicks in and he sees the chains perfectly.

As they're about to strike him, Tom side steps and dodges easily. Although the attack was nothing to him, the chains were moving far faster than the Ancient One was earlier.

In the Ancient One's perspective, she saw the swords about to pierce Tom, but then he blurred for a moment and appeared a few steps away. The swords at the end of the chains embedded themselves into the floor where he once stood.

"Huh? You're very fast now. Let's see what your limit is, shall we?" The Ancient One says menacingly as the rest of the chains snap forward as well.

Weapons of every kind start raining down on Tom with amazing speed. With his slow-motion vision, He uses all of his speed and reflexes to dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge every weapon that comes his way.

(A/N: If you get that reference, let me know.)

Although with the added amount of chain weapons striking out at him, Tom still weaves around the area with ease.

The combination of his enhanced vision, reflexes, dexterity, and speed made it almost impossible for the Ancient One to land a single hit.

Throughout the whole onslaught, Tom discovered one other power as well.

While dodging his mother's constant attacks, Tom wanted to test his flexibility. Snakes are known to be extremely flexible, so he thought he might be as well.

With that thought in mind, Tom started dodging the attacks in different ways. First, he tried the matrix move where Neo bent backward to dodge the bullets.

While still standing on two feet, Tom bent backward as a bright golden spear attached to a chain just barely missed him.

He bent back at a perfect 90-degree angle with relative ease. Although Tom was fairly flexible and balanced before, he couldn't do anything like that.

After seeing his flexibility, Tom started testing it further. He found that he was far more flexible than any contortionist that's ever lived.

It was like he had no bones in his body at all. He could fold himself into a pretzel with ease, and although he won't, Tom could probably suck his own d*ck like Marilyn Manson. Except Tom didn't need to remove a few ribs to get it done. It was like his ribs weren't even there in the first place.

(A/N: That's true by the way, for those that don't know. Look it up. He had surgery to remove his lower ribs so he could suck himself off.)

'Maybe my bones became soft and flexible or something?' Tom thought as he planned to get an x-ray to check his body sooner or later.

"Alright, that's enough." The Ancient One grew tired of watching Tom blur around dodging her every attack, and made the chains disappear. "You definitely have super speed. I couldn't even see anything but a blur as you moved. We'll have to test your speed another time."

"Sounds good to me. What else should we test?" Tom asks.

"Hmm..." The Ancient One thinks for a moment. "Let's see if your magic has changed or increased."

"It's going to be hard to see if it increased, as it was already very large from all of my training." Tom said as he sat down and tried to feel his magic reserves.

Feeling deep inside himself, Tom felt the huge magical reserves he has had since before the ritual took place.

His reserves felt like a large ocean and he couldn't tell if they increased or not. How could he tell if an ocean became bigger or not?

"Nope, I can't tell." Tom reveals as he stands to his feet.

"Hmm, that's fine. Let's test power then." She says and waves her hand.

As she waves her hand, countless combat test dummies appear.

"Fire off a spell that you're used to using at the dummies. If it seem stronger, let me know." She explains and moves away from the dummies.

Although she would be willing to be his test subject and take the attacks, Tom has passed every test she's put him through exceedingly. She didn't want to get hit with an attack that could do some serious damage, like that punch that sent her flying earlier.

Her stomach is still sore from that attack and the Ancient One could tell he barely used any power.

"Okay, let's see what a simple blasting curse can do." Tom says as he points his finger at a dummy. "Confringo!"

Green lightning launches from Toms finger and collides with the dummy. The second the dummy is hit, a giant explosion occurs that destroys all of the other dummies as well.

The shock wave from the explosion nearly knocks the ancient One off of her feet. Tom on the other hand just stood there like a rooted tree.

"If I had to take a guess, I would say that was stronger than usual?" His mother asks as her robes ruffle around from the shock wave.

"Yeah... It was..." Tom muttered as he stared at the aftermath of the spell.

All of the dummies were torn into pieces and lying on the ground. Not a single one was left unscathed.

'Am I overpowered now?'
