"Emm, how many hours exactly are we gonna get to New Washington?" ask the man in front of me.
He was Donnie Liem, an S rank Hunter who just happened to be my roommate and my other two friends. He was assigned to take me and four other young Hunters to StarSam Hunter Academy, because he said Frans' uncle, he was an alumnus of that academy and he graduated two years ago, so he knows the position of StarSam Hunter Academy.
"About eight hours at the speed of this one jet." Donnie said, "For that long, you are free to do the activities you want to do."
I actually don't need to ask, four of my friends are already doing the activities they want to do. Dusk and Vina chatted casually, while Andhika and Rei fell asleep with their mouths open slightly and made a loud, slitting voice...
I sat down next to Donnie and asked, "Uncle how many years in America? I mean at StarSam Hunter Academy?"
"About five years, according to the registration sheet, it's very expensive for me to bear alone, thankfully Uncle Frans asked that the bill be borne by the organization, so I was calm to take training there." donnie replied, "By the way, I don't know how you and Hunter who are under fifteen go to the academy, when the minimum limit to study at the academy is fifteen?"
Ah, has Uncle Frans not told it yet? No, the secret about Wadah, Lord, and Emperor is not much to know, even Hunter rank S is not allowed to know the secret other than the leaders of the strongest Hunter organization and Hunter rank SS.
"That's to say that my fighting skills were honed even further by the great Hunter there." I explained, of course I can't say that my security was my main reason for moving to America.
"But why should you? You're under fifteen, there's more Hunters over fifteen that are better than you.." when you say better than you, Donnie's eyebrows are raised a little, Donnie's eyebrows are raised a little, like confusion.
Damn it, this uncle cannot know about God's and Emperor's container, can't! But I will lose the argument with him, so what should I say?!
"Anyway, maybe because we are a family of strong Hunters who belong to Indonesia? Nor do I know, Frans' uncle only said that I, Andhika, Rei, Dusk, and Vina would be sent to StarSam Hunter Academy to hone our skills." I replied, "Uncle Frans must have had a reason, I don't know why..."
"Ah, you are a family of famous Hunters, maybe he wants to develop your potential first new another..." Donnie looked down at the window of the plane, "At the end of the day, in this world, the strong and the people closest to him take precedence." he then told me about his past, which was very similar to mine.
I listened carefully, but in my heart, I was very happy that I did not have to argue much to avoid explaining about the Container, the Lord, and the Emperor.

The time felt long, even after I had time to talk with Donnie though, the plane had only driven two hours from Jakarta.
I saw the speed of the plane with Donnie, and the speed was insane, two hundred and fifty kilometers per hour?! What are the people down there like when they see us?!
In addition to telling her past, Donnie also explained about the armored planes as well as the jet planes we are boarding now.
He said, although both aircraft are coated in thick steel, the weight of the two types of aircraft is much different, heavier armored aircraft than jet aircraft, in terms of size is also different, far in fact.
"A plane jet of this size, can accommodate about fifteen people to twenty people, including its luggage. Armored aircraft, such as the C-140 Hercules, can accommodate more than five hundred Hunters, including heavy weapons, food supplies, bullets, Strategic Missiles, and so on, as well as being able to move at a speed of 400 km/h with a fully charged aircraft." Donnie smiled broadly, and I smiled, I don't know why.
"You know? Aircraft like the C-140 Hercules there are many in the world, in every Hunter organization there are such aircraft.." he pulled out his phone, "I was once sent to Japan, and saw Freedom Bird instantly, he said, the magnitude is incredible..."
Hmm, my grandfather said, the EasternDragon armored plane is called Jiyuu no Tori, so maybe it is English, gehehe...
"Long time goes by, too." said Donnie, "You see this?" he showed me one photo.
"Can..."

Nine hours later...
There was a storm over the Atlantic Ocean and the pilot had to take a detour to get away from the storm, so the travel time increased to nine hours.
He said the pilot, we arrived in New Washington at four in the morning, and when I saw my phone, it was five in the afternoon in Indonesia.
New Washington Airport was very quiet, there were several planes parked, but my attention fell on a giant plane parked far from where our jet landed.
"It was the Lake Down, StarSam's armored plane and the armored plane that was touted as the strongest armored plane..." Donnie frowned, "Say, the speed of the plane could reach 500 km/h, the highest speed the armored plane reached."
The jet stopped completely, and the door opened. I glanced at the back, where Dusk fell asleep in Vina's lap, Andhika was directing her punch at Rei's face, while Rei fell asleep with her mouth wide open.
Donnie was talking to the pilot, saying that he would stay for a while at the academy, so the pilot could do anything after properly parking the plane at the airport.
I stood up from my seat and woke my friends up in the back, before they got up reluctantly and got off the plane.
Donnie led us out of the airport, and I noticed that he was carrying only a normal carry-on bag and a medium-sized red suitcase, and he said that the suitcase contained his rifle that he didn't name when I asked the contents of the suitcase.
The road outside the airport is very quiet, but there are some airport officials who are still on standby in their vehicles, as a guide for migrants to their destinations.
Donnie asked one of the airport officials for help to drive us to StarSam headquarters, after showing us our RedWhite Hunter license card, the airport officer asked for help rushed us to our destination.
The cover change anyway? Cool, it matches the appearance of the sky in the future...
