Elemental Gen - Z

Chapter 36's

[Elements Transformation Arc - #4]

...----------------...

A month has passed. Not much special happens anymore. Only, their exercise capacity was starting to be added. Especially training using the Second Armor in the form of a vehicle.

Why do we need Second Armor? The answer is to ease the movement. If they get a mission in a place that is far away and difficult to reach, then this will be a solution.

In the previous days, they had often practiced using the virtual version of Second Armor, only with a monitor capital and they were able to practice like a real-world exercise.

This time, the four of them were asked to gather in the main room. Stand straight next to the hologram table. There, there were also professors and members of the eighth generation Elemental.

"Today, is your special training session. Just for today, and if you pass, then you can already use the Second Armor without having to be ordered." Captain Akira began the conversation. All his juniors were silently watching.

Most of them feel the same way. Nervous. They were nervous enough to start this test. Virtual with in the real world, the sensation is very different. No exception for Kim Dae-Vin, he also keeps his own version of nervousness. Well, even though he almost always gets the best test scores though.

"Well, this is a mission. Your first flight mission, which can determine the course of your life." said captain Akira again as he walked authoritatively in front of his juniors.

"Ehem! You're overreacting. Don't you know how they feel? They're nervous, you know? You should encourage, not even say it that way." After clearing your throat, brother Aria argued while moving the chair she used to sit.

Speaking of opinion, his opinion is correct. When Captain Akira said 'the way of life' earlier, there was a strange feeling in Araya, Hanny, Zaaryan, and Dae-Vin. It was as if they would not be able to move on with life if they failed.

"Hmm I think you're right. Alright. Back to topic. Let's just say, it's a class-up exam. Yeah, exams. Those of you who get good grades will pass, and those who get bad grades, will have to train again." captain Akira confirmed his remarks earlier.

"You've been training for days, and I know you can. Do not be afraid, the plane you will use opens the plane carelessly. It was also a weapon, like a fighter. But, this plane is better and environmentally friendly. I will not speak at length, the point is you do not hold back. The test will be two teams, team A and team B. You will not be one gender, so that if there is anything, you can protect each other." continued captain Akira explained.

"Will not be one gender? You mean, men and women on one team?" the inner person and that person is Kim Dae-Vin. Suddenly there was a strange feeling after listening to the explanation of the last captain Akira.

"You guys read the rules all night, right? Alright, without lingering any longer, the Second Armor test begins!"

...----------------...

Captain Akira did not lie about his team. Two aircraft were provided as property in the exam. The first aircraft was named SF219 and the second was RV304. The name has undergone several changes. If to be used in the test as it is now, then two capital letters and three numbers are used in the name. As for the mission, three capital letters and two numbers are used. It has its own meaning that is even difficult to explain.

The four of them had already used their First Armor. That's you know, the protective armor of the second resistant change.

Same with Araya. He was already in the cabin of the plane with someone wearing soft blue armor. Who else if not Kim Dae-Vin. Whether this is luck or even suffering. Today, his attitude is somewhat different. His attitude returned to how it used to be when they first met.

Dae-Vin gets ready to wear a seatbelt and starts to start the engine. But not with Araya. He was confused what to do.

"Hey, why are you quiet? Wear your seat belt." said Dae-Vin in a slightly flat tone, from his tone only his expression can be known.

"I-iya.." replied Araya somewhat stuttered. He immediately did what Dae-Vin meant, wearing a seatbelt.

"Araya," called Dae-Vin without looking at him.

"Prepare if one day I ask you to take control."

...----------------...

Now, their second exam has begun, even since a few minutes ago. Both planes were flying in different directions. Team A's plane is heading east, and team B is heading west.

Team B aircraft move at medium speed, and medium altitude as well. Their job is to control these participants for thirty minutes, keeping their movements steady. Simple? Yes, since this is only a first-rate exam, there are no hurdles, or.. Maybe later?

While still touching the steering handlebar of the plane, Araya glanced at Dae-Vin who seemed to feel something was wrong. Wait, he let go of the stake?

"What's up, Dae-Vin?" asked Araya a little doubtful. There should be no need to ask if the answer is certain.

"You take over for a second, I want to check the back. I feel something is awkward. But don't be afraid, nothing will happen." she said trying to stay calm, patting Araya's left shoulder gently, and then walking back to check things out.

"May nothing happen. I feel weird.." Araya sat down while starting to control the plane. He also tried to stay calm. Do it well as during virtual practice.

...----------------...

Moments earlier, in the engine room of the plane, there was an awkwardness. Many cables are disconnected and detached from their place. The previously neat room was suddenly a mess like a warehouse that had been dismantled. Some bolts also came off. And worse, the oxygen supply tank for the entire room of the plane, had a leak.

...----------------...

"Why hasn't Dae-Vin returned yet? He said for a moment.." Araya's mind began to feel anxious. It was ten minutes and he still hadn't returned.

Then, he decided to contact her using the communication tools on their armor.

"Kim Dae-" has not had time for Araya to finish her words, Dae-Vin has already immediately replied.

"Araya, make the landing." said Dae-Vin in a different tone again. This time, his breathing was clearly heard.

"But, why?" Araya asked again to get a clearer reason. And also, he has not been too smooth to make landfall, especially on sea water like now. For him, landing was the hardest thing.

"Just do it, there's no time to explain.."

Glucose! Araya gulps her saliva, trying to stay calm. Then, reduce the speed of the plane, and lower its altitude. Need calculations to land smoothly.

To be continued..
