Chapter 16 - Mohammed trained his new strength.

After finishing his conversation with his friend, Mohamed went to his mother to ask for her help in unlocking and controlling his new power.

Mohamed entered the house and then approached his mother, saying:

Mohamed: "Mom, I need your help."

• Mother: "What do you need help with?"

Mohamed: "I need help unlocking my power and learning to control it."

• Mother: "Are you sure you want to unlock it now? You must understand that with great power comes greater responsibility."

Mohamed: "Yes, I'm sure. I will take full responsibility."

• Mother: "Alright, I will help you. In fact, this is a complex exercise because it requires you to be extremely exhausted, so much so that you can't even lift your hand. Then, you must imagine the percentage of power you want to extract. For now, start with 5/100, because when you start extracting your power little by little, you will begin doing it instinctively."

• Mohamed: "But it seems like such a simple exercise. How can such a simple task unlock my power?"

• Mother: "Well, let me explain. This bracelet on your wrist is controlled by your mind. In order to unlock your power, you need to control the bracelet mentally. This exercise may seem simple, but in reality, it's very difficult because you need to have an extremely strong character to control it."

• Mohamed: "Ah, I see. It sounds really difficult now. It's not just physical but mental exhaustion, which makes it so much harder. But Mom, how much power can you extract from the bracelet?"

• Mother: "I can extract 75/100 because I stopped training, but if I had continued, I could have reached 90/100."

• Mohamed: "Wow! Mom, you are really strong. How did you manage to do that? And why did you stop training? You could have succeeded in mastering it if you continued."

• Mother: "I stopped because I became focused on taking care of my little ones. Also, in order to control your power, you need to go through certain emotional stages: anger, sorrow, courage, pain, and shock. When you face any of these, only then can you release your power. And when I say anger, I mean not just being angry, but being so enraged that you lose all control. The same goes for sorrow, where you lose everything. So it's very difficult to control the bracelet."

• Mohamed: "It sounds really hard now. Now I understand why my power was unleashed when I was kidnapped. In that moment, the shock and fear triggered it. But, Mom, it seems like you really suffered to reach this level of power."

• Mother: "Yes, your power was released because of the shock. Ha ha ha, don't worry, my dear, the past doesn't matter. What matters is the present and that you are safe. That's my only wish."

• Mohamed: "Do you think Leila will go through the same thing? Will she be able to unlock her power in the future?"

• Mother: "Yes, she can unlock her power. It's just a matter of time."

• Mohamed: "Oh! I'm so excited to see Leila's power."

• Mother: "My dear, tomorrow, before you start running, come to me."

Mohamed: "Okay."

After their conversation, Mohamed went to his room, deep in thought about how to unleash his power and how to do it. He started touching the bracelet, which appeared completely ordinary. Mohamed felt confused; how could such an ordinary bracelet seal his power?

The next morning, Mohamed went to his mother and said:

Mohamed: "I came as you asked me to yesterday. What do you want me to do?"

• Mother: "Give me your hand."

Mohamed: "Alright."

• Mother: "I will activate the gravity in the bracelet to make your body extremely heavy. When your body is this heavy, and you begin to run, this will accelerate your training and increase your endurance, so you can eventually unlock your power."

• Mohamed: "I understand, Mom. Activate the gravity."

• Mother: "Alright, be ready."

Then, the mother increased the gravity. Mohamed's body became extremely heavy.

• Mohamed: "Oh! I feel so heavy. I can barely run the distance I used to cover easily."

• Mother: "Don't worry about how far you can run. You'll adapt to the new gravity in five minutes or so."

• Mohamed: "Alright, I will do that. But will this really help me unlock my power?"

• Mother: "Trust me and do as I say. You'll see the results for yourself."

• Mohamed: "Okay, I'll do it."

Mohamed went out, and as he tried to run, he felt a huge weight on him. He could barely run properly. He continued running slowly, covering only a quarter of the distance he usually managed.

He returned home exhausted and went to his mother to tell her about the new training method.

Mohamed: "This new training method is amazing, but it's really exhausting."

• Mother: "I know, dear."

After finishing his breakfast and changing his clothes, Mohamed went to school. When he entered his class, he met Osama:

Osama: "Hey Mohamed, how's it going?"

• Mohamed: "I'm fine. How about you?"

Osama: "I'm good. But why do you look so exhausted? You also seem to be moving slower. What happened?"

• Mohamed: "I'm just tired from training."

Osama: "Ah, I see. So you're training early in the morning. That's good for your body. Keep it up."

• Mohamed: "I know, thanks for the advice."

Osama: "After school, wait for me, we'll go together."

• Mohamed: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
