II Testing Strength

When Elijah exited the building, he was astounded by the tall buildings and cars on the streets. Elijah looked at the few people walking on streets wearing jackets and winter clothes and then looked at himself, who was wearing a white t-shirt, a pair of jeans which did not match the climate. Of Course, Elijah hadn't paid much attention to what he was wearing because this little cold would never affect him.

Elijah looked at smartphone screen and saw that it was 10:14 in the morning and he remembered what he was told when Louise(Sif) gave him this clothes.

...

"Ell, remember to adjust your phone's clock before going out because from what I remember Damian had set to your world's standard time but here is different, 5 hours here is nearly one hour there. Also, take this money with you before you go."

...

What he understood was that one hour in his world was equivalent to almost five hours here on Midgard or at least in this country.

The first thing he did was going to the library to study more about this world. In a few hours he understood most of the history and laws of this planet, but what he found the most unbelievable was that there were people who said that humans evolved from the monkey.

After several hours, Elijah get up from his seat and decided to go look around the city.

"I think I should go out and test my strength, since I did not test how strong I become when I established my Divine Body."

From what he read, this was a time when people had to work most of the time, so most them liked to spend their free time uploading photos on social networks for likes and followers.

People who didn't exercise were looked down upon by the rest of society. Even when it came to picking up girls, men who had a strong body would have a much easier time. Furthermore, there were frequent appearances of beautiful women at some fitness facilities.

Most of the people here lived for appearances and because of this, there were fitness facilities everywhere in city. Usually, these facilities had several experts hired as instructors to teach customers.

But you could also use their equipment and exercise machines paying a fixed fee every hour.

Elijah walked over to one of those facilities and approached the reception desk.

The one receiving customers at the reception was a 19 years old girl who was the owner's daughter. Today her parents were away and they asked her to stay at the reception.

She was texting on her phone when she heard footsteps of a customer and he lifted her head to look at the person and she was stunned by what she saw.

The young man in front of her had a pair of immensely attractive gray pupils and short light brown hair. Although he had a robust body and wore simple clothes, he had a refined and gentle aura around him, his skin still had a slight silver glow and he seemed to be over 20 years old. Seeing him, she thought he was a singer, an actor or something like that.

"Hey, are you hearing me? I'm saying I want to pay for one hour." The girl was so distracted that she did not noticed that he was talking to her.

"Oh right, I'm sorry. Just fill in this paper and pay the one hour price"

The men filled out the paper and after paying for the one hour card, he headed towards the equipment.

The young woman looked at the figure of the man moving away. She looked distracted as if looking at an illusion when one of her friends went over to her side.

"Dana, who was that person just now? He was so handsome, do you think you could tell me his name?" Hearing what her friend said, she quickly looked over the registers and saw the man's information that shocked her even more.

Name: Elijah Branches

Male

Age: 15

Nationality: Thunder Hammer Kingdom

'What country is this Thunder Hammer Kingdom, wait, he's only fifteen?!'

Elijah heard everything they were talking at the reception but ignored and proceeded to the machines to test his strength. The first machine was to test his punching strength.

Those machines were strong and made to hold up to 3000 kg even through no one would be able to punch like that.

The maximum this machine has registered was 347 kg, which was already very good in a national competition.

Elijah took in a deep breath and completely relaxed his body. Suddenly, his gaze concentrated and his fist smashed against the machine.

Boom!

The machine shook violently and after a few seconds, The screen on the machine displayed 3000 kg but it was clear that his strength was more than that.

"Who is that guy? He's a monster…" Everyone there, looked at Elijah and they all thought it was the machine that was broken.

'Good, I think that now I can face a fourth realm experts just with my body strength' Elijah thought, before walking over to the machine that tested speed.

Elijah adjusted his breathing and prepared to only use his body speed while stood on the running machine.

In a blink of an eye, Elijah has accelerated to his maximum speed without using vitality, primeval energy or spirit force. His feet moved quickly, increasing his sprinting power. His body was like an lightning bolt moving in a flash and bringing along with him a gust of wind. Then he stopped and looked at how fast he was.

105.8 m/s

"Wow! I'm so fast now. I think if I use my three energies, the divine body and void steps my speed would be unbelievable!"

A large crowd had gathered in a circle around him. They were there to train, but at this moment, everyone's attention was drawn to Elijah's monstrous strength and speed. A large crowd had gathered in a circle around him. They were there to train, but at this moment, everyone's attention was drawn to Elijah's monstrous strength and speed.

Everyone there knew that if the punching machine was truly broken there was impossible that his speed was fake because they all saw it.

The crowd couldn't help but wonder, who was this terrifying man? Is he the superman? Are aliens real? A sense of fear spread throughout the fitness facility.

At that moment, Elijah wanted to test his skill against someone. He stared at the crowd and asked without having a second thought: "Hey! Are you guys interested in having a spar?"

"N-no, there's no need!" the entire crowd hurriedly declined in unison as their legs were somewhat soft.

"Really? I wanted to have a spar so much, but I think I'm going back now."

Elijah turned around and headed for the exit and when they all realized what happened Elijah was nowhere to be seen.
