Chapter 28- Momentum Talent

The Origin ran through the whole body of the train before it resided inside the engine. Immediately, the engine made a loud rumbling sound as steam errupted from the horn-like object on top of the train.

A few seconds passed and the speed of the train increased quickly. The blurry outside view became even more blurry as the whole place shook violently.

Kai grabbed the handle of the train, ready to take control at any second. He knew that this will barely be enough to avoid the accident that will occur.

On the other side of the cabinet, Eva was looking at the other train, making sure nothing odd was happening. However, at that second, she noticed something.

The other train's speed had suddenly increased out of nowhere even though she was sure that was the speed limit possible for a train.

"Such a speed… No, don't tell me…" Murmuring to herself, she was about to call for Kai when she noticed that the latter was already there, looking at what she was seeing.

"Tsk…" Clicking his tongue.

*BOOOM*

Suddenly, the other train diverged from the trailway with a loud bang and started traveling the rough ground, making a shortcut toward the train Eva and Kai were on. Now, it was certain that the two trains will smash against each other in a horrifying accident.

Screams errupted from the passengers outside as they started running around panicked. None of them understood what was happening.

"Should I stop the train, Kai?" Eva asked as she was ready to jump to the roof and deal with the rushing train. However, even if she was able to stop it, there wasn't a guarantee that this wouldn't be a trap their chaser planted to stop them from reaching the city.

Kai's eyes squinted as his mind analyzed the situation, taking into consideration every aspect of it and forming a plan in his head at an alarming speed. This was Kai's fort, analytical power like no other.

He can see things other humans can't even start to consider and he can derive many conclusions out of them.

"No, we will let it try to hit the train." He said as he turned around and left the cockpit followed by Eva who was slightly confused as to what her beloved was thinking of.

"If he wants to play little games. Fine, I will humor him." Kai murmured as a dangerous glint appeared in his cold, dark eyes.

After walking for a few moments, he halted in front of one of the windows that had the closest view of the other train. After that, Kai took a deep breath.

"Stay behind me. It's going to be loud." Kai ordered before he approached the window and examined the other train thoroughly.

Eva was confused at first as to what Kai was trying to do and opted to watch silently. She was extremely intrigued to see what he was going to do. Aside from the fact that she loved him, seeing the Black Phantom working was an honor in and out of itself in the underworld. A privilege Eva had full access to.

Inhaling breath, Kai put his hand on the window and waited. His sharp eyes peered through the glass like a hawk, eyeing his prey.

A few seconds passed and eventually, the other train was barely a few meters away from hitting them. The loud screeching of the train's wheels as they glided through the rough terrain was deafening to the ears. Sparks of metal flew everywhere as the train swayed left and right violently.

At that moment, energy surged through Kai's body at an unimaginable speed, way more than anything Eva had seen before.

At that moment, Kai's mouth opened and he uttered one word. "Reverse." At the same time, all teh energy that surged through his body exited the palm of his hand and spread across the surface of the train's walls causing an effect akin to the ripple of a pond after being hit by a pebble.

Silence.

Instantly, everything stopped. The loud noises stopped, the rain stopped, and even their train stopped. It was as if for a second, time froze around them. But, Eva knew that wasn't the case since she could still see clearly and think clearly.

However, her eyes widened beyond shock to see the train outside completely halted. How was that ev-

Before she could finish her thought, a loud explosion shook the whole place. Outside, the ground on both sides of the train exploded. It was akin to an earthquake albeit this earthquake's direction was in the clear opposite of the other train.

The cracking extended for a few hundred meters before it finally stopped. Then, the train they were on resumed going as if nothing happened.

The passengers were completely shocked beyond words. Who wouldn't after they saw a train, rushing toward them at 200 Km/h completely halt in a mere instant? Was this some kind of magic?

Even Eva could barely hold herself from gaping like an idiot at what she saw. How was that even possible?

"Fuuh…" Exhaling a long breath, Kai turned around and said. "Let's go back to the cockpit." He said as he walked away.

"H-Huh? Wait, Kai! How did you-"

"It's a talent of mine 'Momentum Talent'. I can change the momentum of any object as I wish and apply it in any form I want. I can't erase momentum though." He explained briefly.

When Kai used his talent, all the momentum created by the train's speed was reversed and applied on the ground which created that small earthquake.

"... How does a power like that even exist?" Eva murmured with a shocked expression.

If such a talent was leaked to the underworld, a huge war will ensue just for it. Changing momentum as someone wished was something that completely ignored the laws of physics. Even the Origin power of the strongest people isn't capable of such a feat without consequences.

'What more are you hiding… Kai?' Eva thought as she looked at the back of her beloved. Something about his lone silhouette invoked warmth and safety in her heart. Even in a world as wide and as dangerous as the one they were living in, he looked so powerful and dependable.

She felt that even if the whole world was to weigh down on his shoulders, Kai will carry it without a problem.

'Now, let's see whether he will take the bait or not.' Kai thought coldly as he peered through the window silently.

He could already predict what the other party will do and he was ready for it. No, even if Kai wasn't ready, he would still be able to win. He knew that. He always did. Many would think it was pure arrogance to think no one can be Kai's equal. However, Kai had a deep belief that even the strongest creatures in this world could never compare to him at all.

What he showed to this point was nothing but a small percentage of his true power. He never intends to use more than that as he knew it was enough. But, if a day comes when he will have to use his full power… He wasn't sure if the world will stay the same after that.

Nothing in this world can be his equal. That is his curse and blessing and he accepted it long ago because of a certain someone. The same person he hated with every fiber of his being.

*CRUNCH*

In another place, somewhere unknown. A mysterious person was crunching down on some snacks as he stared at the screen of his computer. His eyes were slightly widened when he witnessed what happened.

"Monster… What a freaking monster!!" He yelled as he tapped the keyboard, repeating what happened again and again as if seeing it once wasn't enough.

"You gotta be kidding me! Did he just stop the fucking train with one hand?! How is that even possible? Is he some kind of hacker?!"

Even though what he saw was horrifying, the individual had a wide smile lingering on his face. He was clearly enjoying what he saw.

"I fucking hate hackers, man! Just play the game properly!! Our game will be ruined if you keep doing such things!"

*CRUNCH*

"Well, whatever. Every hacker might seem invincible but create a proper anti-cheat system and they will all crumble down. They all do."

Cracking his fingers, the individual grinned and started typing on his keyboard at an inhuman speed. No one could comprehend what he was doing. But, what was certain was, Origin energy seeped out of his body and entered the computer.

"Let's see how our game will end, Hacker. I dare you to try and stop this." He said.
