The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

Chapter 15 The Two Sides of Magic

Airo only finished speaking halfway before realizing he had lost his composure. He didn't continue, but at the end, he said something suggestive:

"Maybe I don't know enough, and I also hope that she is different from what I expected."

Anyway, I hope you have a great time together.

"Oh, um."

Kahn wasn't sure what Elo meant, so he gave a vague reply.

You know how easy it is to get beaten to death for someone who only says half of what they mean?! (In a fit of rage)

Ignoring these heavy topics, the two began to chat casually.

Airo is indeed very free now. You could say he has basically nothing to do. He's like a middle-aged person who has just lost his job. Oh no, much better. He should be considered a retired middle-aged person with generous benefits and a pension.

After all, even though Ailo has been completely sidelined, he is still the current emperor's brother, the former general of the Fire Kingdom, and the Dragon of the West. His prestige and influence are unmatched by ordinary people.

Even disregarding these identities, he is a true master of fire control, one of the strongest in the world.

In short, instead of worrying about Airo, you should worry about yourself.

Kahn asked him what his plans were for the future, since he couldn't be idle all day long. Airo smiled and said that he was going to focus on watching him and Zuko grow up, and that other things would have to come later.

"Huh~"

Kahn got goosebumps from the cheesy sentimentality and rubbed his arms in disgust.

Upon seeing this, Ai Luo burst into laughter.

That's exactly what he thought. Zuko and Kahn were now the two most special and important people to him.

Kahn was the orphan of his friend, who had asked him to help take care of his wife and children before his death. Now that Kahn's mother had also passed away, Kahn was left all alone, and he felt it was his responsibility to raise him to adulthood.

Zu Kou had always been close to him, and his personality was so similar to that of his son who had tragically died, which made him feel a surge of affection for him.

Furthermore, now that Ao Zai has replaced him as emperor, he does not approve of Ao Zai's treacherous and ruthless nature, nor his domineering and arrogant behavior.

As Ao Zai's son, Zu Kou was completely different from his father. He was a rough gem, and Ao Zai hoped to teach Zu Kou well so that he could become a true wise ruler in the future.

Suddenly, Kahn asked a question on a whim:

"May I learn fire control from you?"

Ai Luo was a general before, so his strength should be top-notch, right?

Instead of answering, Airo asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with learning fire magic at a school?"

Kahn said dejectedly, "I am learning, but the teachers there are teaching too slowly."

Kahn explained the situation to Elo: the teachers at the Fire Magic School only taught one move at a time and then had them practice it repeatedly. He learned it very quickly, but even though he had already mastered it, he wanted to ask the teacher for "extra lessons," but was still firmly refused.

After hearing this, Ai Luo exclaimed in surprise:

"I didn't expect you to be a genius in fire control. Let me see how well you've learned fire control."

"OK!"

Without further ado, the two arrived at the training ground, where Kahn demonstrated all the moves he had learned so far.

"not bad,"

Airo first offered some praise, then teased:

"However, some of his moves seem a bit unfamiliar. He doesn't seem like a genius at all."

Kahn explained:

"Because I taught myself those skills."

"Do you learn by watching scrolls?"

This really surprised Airo.

It should be noted that each move of the fire control technique recorded on the scroll only has three or four illustrations, and there are no detailed explanations of the key points of the moves. Some moves are even unclear on how to connect them.

Generally speaking, scrolls on fire control are used as reference books for home education or as review materials. It's not that you can't use them to learn on your own, but it's very difficult.

"That's why I want to learn from you."

Kahn looked at Elo expectantly.

"Um"

Elo rested his chin on his hand and pondered for a long time. Seeing that Kahn's expression was becoming increasingly tense, he suddenly opened his arms and grinned mischievously.

"Haha, of course! How was it? Were you really nervous just now? Are you really surprised now?!"

"You're so boring."

Although Kahn was indeed a little nervous just now, he was also pleasantly surprised, but he was a bit annoyed to find that he had been amused by a stinky old man.

Kahn's resentful little expression didn't make Aiolos feel guilty; instead, it made him laugh again.

After he finished laughing, he said:

"If you have any questions about fire control techniques, feel free to ask me. And judging from your performance later, I might teach you some even more powerful moves. How about that?"

Here it comes, the unique skill!

Although Airo's actions were simply empty promises, Kahn had to admit that these promises were incredibly tempting!

Moreover, when asked what the problem was, Kahn immediately thought of one and asked:

"There's a question right now. When I went to Zuko's house before, I practiced fighting with Zuko and Azura, but Azura's fire magic was much more powerful than mine, and the color of the flames was also different from ordinary people. Why is that?"

He thought these were probably just a matter of talent, but he didn't know if Airo had any other opinions.

"Oh?"

Elo immediately became interested, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"I don't know much about the flames either, and I've never heard of a fire master having such flames. Perhaps she does have some special constitution."

As for the fire control technique, I roughly know what it is, but it's a bit difficult to explain verbally. Let me demonstrate it.

Watch closely.

The move that Airo demonstrated was the starting stance of a fire manipulation technique that he was very familiar with. However, the power that Airo displayed was much greater than that that that Kahn displayed. But this was normal, because their age and physical abilities were not on the same level.

What's so interesting about this?

Just as Kahn was puzzled, Ero used the starting stance again, which made Kahn's eyes widen in surprise!

This time, the power that Airo unleashed was much stronger than the last time, but Airo didn't make any strange movements, it seemed as if his power had increased for no reason.

"How did they manage to do that?"

Kahn asked curiously.

Airo put away his stance and winked mischievously, saying, "It's very simple. You can do it as long as you are proficient in fire control."

What does that mean?

Kahn looked confused.

Airo chuckled and ruffled Kahn's hair, saying, "Let me give you another hint: why is the fire control technique you learned on your own different from the one taught by your teacher?"

"That's because, of course!"

Kahn was halfway through his sentence when suddenly, as if an electric current had struck his mind, he realized something and said:

"I see!"
