An Interesting Child of Forest
Hao stared in amusement when he saw all his followers face turned into disbelief when he said that Yoh will join them, the reason was obvious – Yoh was blind. Hao bet they would never imagine that if they mess with Yoh, they will get beaten up by the blind child, and Hao would love to see their expression.
Yoh chose to wear his yukata for the travel, it's indeed looked good for Yoh in Hao's opinion, and he also had a small backpack where he assumed Yoh keep his tea, milk and oranges. Yoh had a simple black sport shoes and a necklace decorated by 8 Pendulums shaped Sapphire stones. Yoh said that his Spirit friends will rest in each sapphire stones instead of mortuary tablet – Yuki's handy craft during her lifetime.
Hao helped Yoh climb the Spirit of Fire's hand, it would be bad if he fell from the Spirit of Fire because of his eyes, "The fight will started in two years, Luchist, you and the rest go to find another who want to join us, I and Yoh will be at the house in Japan, I need to train Yoh everything about Chou Senji Ryakketsu." He said calmly and raised an eyebrow when one of his followers, Blocken, walked to Yoh's back.
Blocken moved to kick Yoh in mocking manner, Hao know that he wanted to do so out of curiosity, so he stay quiet and let Yoh deal with it. Before Blocken's small foot touched Yoh's leg though, he already pinned down to the ground and his movement sealed by a rope made from Oversoul using Shinrin. "I won't do something so stupid like that, little guy, Blocken was it?" Yoh said calmly, "You should never challenge me again or I will just simply hang you upside down guarded by Kai for 3 hours under midday sunlight." Hao chuckled when Blocken's face turned blue from fear, and it's amusing to see the dark side of Yoh and not the all too kind boy, it's worrying Hao that someone will try to use him if he is in that innocent mode.
"Well, now all of you see that even if he can't see, he is still a strong Shaman who had surpassed his disability." Hao stated calmly, "Now, leave, I would like to start training him as fast as possible." His followers scattered away immediately, except for Opacho who already on Spirit of Fire's shoulder.
Hao looked at Yoh, who seemed to notice it since he turned to Hao, "Well, Otouto, why don't I teach you how to make an Oversoul that will be able to take you fly?" He used a more gentler tone than the one he used to his followers, again except to Opacho, "Use your imagination to make the Oversoul that will let you fly".
Yoh sighed, "I can make an Oversoul that will let me fly, it's how to fly with blind eyes that you should teach me, Onii-chan." He rubbed the back of his head, "How I can know the direction I meant to take when I can't see? I'm not success in doing so yet".
Hao raised an eyebrow, "How do you normally walk on the ground without stumbling to anything?" he asked in thoughtful manner.
"I get the help from Riku, I kind of materializing him with a small amount of Furyoku and then use his power to make the layout of my surrounding." Yoh explained with a smile, "I tried to use Arashi before, but all I got to know was if there's something in the air but I didn't get to know what." He sighed tiredly, then his head perked up, "Oh, right, I can use that. Why didn't I ever realize it?" He shook his head, "There's a way to fly, what I need to do is only to make a flying Shikigami, I can see what they see so I can get the scenery of my surroundings, making it looked like I have a second eye other than my real one".
"Nice trick." Hao nodded in agreement, "So, try it this instant." He said sternly and pushed Yoh from Spirit of Fire's hand, "I said I won't go easy on my teaching, you won't get a special treatment, Yoh." Yoh pouted but he took out a piece of paper in swallow shape and formed a Swallow bird Shikigami with the paper, "Well, that's an interesting choice." Hao said in interest, "Is there any reason you make it a Swallow?".
"Because I was raised in a forest, this forest has many different parts – the mountain, the river, the land, and of course, the open air. I often watch the scenery in the forest with Mom help, she sends me images telepathically so I can see what is there in the forest, and I know that a Swallow is very good at flight in high speed." Yoh explained with a smile, "How about I show you a bit of my power, Nii-chan, I bet you are curious".
"Yeah, right." Hao admitted, he really is curious about Yoh, and since they are in the same side, it's alright to show a bit of affection, right? "Let's see if you can fly following Spirit of Fire from here to our house in Tokyo, a bit far from the town tough".
Yoh nodded, "Now that the Shikigami is ready … How fast you want to fly, Nii-chan?" he asked in thoughtful manner.
Hao raised an eyebrow in question, but then mentally smacked himself because Yoh can't see him or his expression, "As fast as a jet plane, I guess." He answered calmly, "Why do you asked?".
"If you want to fly fast, then I need to use reinforcement to match your speed, unless you don't want me to match your speed and invading Spirit of Fire instead." Yoh said with a huff, "A jet plane is faster than normal plane, so I would need the reinforcement to fly as fast as that." He inhaled deeply, "Arashi, Elfrost, get ready." The Bat Spirit and the Dragonfly winged Fairy floating beside Yoh as he facing the direction of Tokyo.
Hao nodded in approval, "Good, oh, why don't we have a race? We will see how fast you can get at your fullest, fly from here to Tokyo, the first to get into the sky of Tokyo win and the loser have to make dinner." He challenge with a smirk on his face, "Accept?".
Yoh's reaction make Hao taken aback, Hao never thought Yoh can make that kind of expression. Yoh was grinning maliciously like the predator cornered its prey, "Then Nii-chan, I will make you cook dinner for us tonight." His grin grow wider and without a command, the Bat Spirit changed into Hitodama mode and entered Yoh's wing shape earrings that only now caught Hao's eyes, A big black bat wings formed on Yoh's back from his Oversoul. Then, the Wind Fairy changed into Hitodama mode and disappeared from sight.
"Huh?" Yoh managed to get Hao surprised again, "I never see any Shaman use that kind of technique, where in the world does the Wind Fairy go?" Even if he is surprised, his expression is one of interest and amusement.
Yoh chuckled, "Then we have to exchange technique later, Nii-chan, but now we have our race." Yoh said cheerfully like a kid sing a song, "Race …".
Hao smirked, "Start." He finished and make Spirit of Fire fly as fast as he can to Tokyo, he is sure that he can win the race because Spirit of Fire use the air as medium. He looked behind to see how far Yoh can get, but there's no one so he smirked in triumph, I win already.
"What are you smirking for, Onii-chan?" Yoh's voice rang causing Hao's eyes widened in surprise, he looked up and found Yoh flying with a smile on his face up above Hao. Hao frowned at the sight, Yoh's wings flapping in the speed of normal bat, but how come he can fly as fast as Spirit of Fire? "I bet you never met with someone in your caliber before, right?".
Hao glared. "So you are saying you are in my caliber? You are too ahead of yourself, boy." He growled and fly faster, even so he can still hear Yoh's cheerful laugh.
"Don't get angry, Nii-chan, Mom always said that you have to stay calm no matter what, unless you are happy." Yoh yelled happily and when Hao felt a gush of wind, he already far in front of Hao.
Hao blinked, "Oh, I see." He said in wonder, "Arashi was not disappeared but merging with the wind so Yoh can control the wind itself, it's not the technique I expected him to use in this young age." He felt a tug on his poncho.
"Hao-sama." Opacho called timidly, "If you not increase your speed then you will lose." Hao snapped out from his shock and increase Spirit of Fire's speed, "Hao-sama's little Brother is very interesting".
Hao chuckled and ruffled Opacho's hair, "He is an interesting fellow." He agreed, "I guess that's to be expected from the one learned from Nature herself, with a Deity as his teacher, Yoh might surpassed all of my followers already." He looked at Opacho with a smile, "He really is an interesting fellow, and I bet he will be more stronger than now after he learns all my technique".
Opacho grinning widely, "Yes, Hao-sama." She chirped happily.
Hao looked ahead of him and found Yoh far ahead, "I suppose, it's okay for me to lose in speed this once, I need to know his full potential first." he chuckled again, "I wonder if he even need my training, he really got me surprised with his skill".
The first to enter the sky of Tokyo is surprisingly Hao, even though he planned to let Yoh win, Yoh ran out of Furyoku just outside of Tokyo. Hao sighed, "Really, Yoh, I guess I need to train you to increase your Furyoku first, all of your skill is good but if not get the support of Furyoku then it's a waste." He said with a shake of his head, "I will train you physically too, be prepared for my training is not easy".
"Is it as harsh as Suiryuu's training?" Yoh asked in anticipation, "No, I bet I don't need stamina training, what I need is Furyoku since Mom didn't know how to increase Furyoku." He shook his head and leaned on Hao on Spirit of Fire's hand, "What do you want for dinner?".
Hao smirked, "Make me curry rice." He ordered calmly as he helped his little Brother stood up, "We are going to land, then Opacho will show you the way to the market".
