Chapter 151 Little Training.

"Ain't learning new things, dad. If not for the little things you've taught me, I wouldn't be able to wield mana at all. Maybe I wouldn't even be able to create flame on my palm".

..He didn't dare tell him that he was trying to blast the gate with flame and almost blasted a part of the fence with flame.

He didn't dare tell him that, maybe Ethan wouldn't even be too angry when he tells him that...but he doesn't want to take the risk.

"Yeah, it's normal, you shouldn't be too hard on yourself, this is how it is for everyone that gets to awaken a power element and hasn't learned to use them properly. I only gave you some little teachings, that isn't enough to make you average at making use of your power,

And though self-training helps a lot, it doesn't guarantee that you'll learn new things from it, but no matter what, it's very helpful. As you told me before, you're going to one of the academies specialized in training benders after your graduation from school, right?".

"Yes, dad, I am going, I'll love to become a warrior like you". Aiden responded.

..Now, that confirms it, Aiden was going to one of the academies specialized in training benders.

He and his parents had discussed it a long time ago, and when he told them his decision, his father was very happy. At least, one of his households would go to an academy specialized in training benders, and one of his family members would become a warrior.

First of all, he got to awaken an affinity, that eased Ethan's anxiousness. And then, he agreed to go to an academy specialized in training benders, something he had decided on before discussing it with his parents...Ethan was proud of him.

So that confirms it, Aiden wouldn't be like Hazel, he plans on going to any of the academies specialized in training benders once he's out of school...and he doesn't plan on changing his mind.

Ethan asked Aiden a question, Aiden responded, and these were the words that flowed out of Ethan's mouth next,

"When you go there, you'll learn a lot, after spending all the needed time there, making use of your power would become really easy for you. Wielding mana would become a piece of cake for you".

"But dad, even with the teachings you gave to me, I couldn't hold flame on my palm for a long time. It doesn't happen all the time though. After putting effort to create one on my palm, within minutes, it went off. And I am still lacking badly in the aspect of channeling". Aiden stated.

"As time passes, you'll learn more. You know, your affinity can be used in doing many things, all affinities can be used in doing many things. Your affinity which is flame can be made into flame balls, flame slashes, and so on. To learn these, you'll have to go to an academy specialized in training benders,

You still have a long way to go when it comes to making use of your power, you still have a lot to learn. So don't worry about those things you haven't learned now, you'll learn to do them when you go to an academy specialized in training benders". Ethan stated.

..And Aiden did nothing more than nod his head a little.

Then Ethan said to him again, "Now that I have the chance, should we engage in some little training?".

"Yes, dad, I'd really appreciate it".

And with that, Ethan began training him. As Ethan had already said, he'll need to go to an academy specialized in training benders to fully learn how to make use of his power. But getting this little training now wasn't bad.

It was best to start the training from now so a person would be able to make use of his power to a certain extent. Ethan taught him more concerning channeling, he was good in one aspect of channeling to a certain extent, he focused on teaching him more concerning the second aspect.

Ethan would have been able to give him proper teaching if he was a fire bender, but none of his affinities were fire. He didn't know what it felt like to possess the fire affinity, he had never made use of the affinity before.

..If fire was part of his affinities, then the training concerning channeling and all that would have been better.

The teachings he would have given Aiden would be so standard that Aiden would have no choice but to learn a lot. But he was still trying his best though, he doesn't possess the fire affinity, but the teachings he was giving to him were still good.

Lydia finally managed to glance out the window, and she sighted Ethan training Aiden. And she was surprised...how come her master was back by this hour? She knew the time he does come back.

Well, there must be reasons why he was back home this early...that was what she concluded before taking her gaze off the window.

Ethan kept giving Aiden those teachings, and Aiden was learning a lot. And now, it was time for a different kind of training. All Ethan has been doing for the past minutes now was talking while demonstrating with his body.

..Now, he wanted to show Aiden those things by making use of his power.

"Now, I am gonna show you the second aspect of channeling". Ethan said to Aiden.

He took Aiden to a certain spot on the compound, then uttered to him once again,

"You're gonna stand here, don't move from this spot. And I'm gonna stay a long meters away from you. I want to show you that even if I wouldn't be standing close to you, I'll still cause wind to hit your face. You should have been an expert in channeling for you to achieve what I'm about to do now,

That's to say, once you've learned to make use of your power properly, all these things would become very easy for you".

After making that utterance, Ethan moved far from Aiden. Yes, he was standing some meters away from him according to proper calculation, but he wasn't close to him at all.

And with that, Ethan began transferring mana toward his hand. Done with that, he forwarded his hand as it was pointing toward Aiden's face right now. Then he caused slight wind to begin heading toward Aiden's face.

Aiden was still standing there when slight wind hit his face as his hair flowed around. It wasn't enough to take him off the ground and fly to whatever place, just slight wind.

..Look at that, proper channeling, though he wasn't standing close to Aiden, he still caused wind to hit his face.

Aiden wasn't that wowed, yeah, he knew this was a piece of cake for his dad, he was just learning.

"You see that? Now, that's proper channeling in one aspect. You're good in one aspect to an extent, you need to work on this aspect. But as said, as time passes and you go to an academy for training benders, these things would become easy for you". Ethan said while strolling toward Aiden.

..Aiden only nodded his head to his dad's statement.

Ethan reached where he was standing and uttered to him once again,

"Do you want me to show you another aspect of channeling?...This time, making use of my water affinity".

Aiden only nodded his head meaning 'Yes'. Then Ethan began walking toward the well on the compound, the well they do draw water which they use in doing many things.

He reached the well, opened it, then moved back a little. He then glanced at Aiden and said to him,

"Watch me".

And Aiden did as his dad said, he was watching him. Then Ethan forwarded both of his hands as they were pointing toward the well. And by now, he had transferred mana toward both hands as water was already flowing out of the well.

The water came out of the well as Ethan was in control of it, it was in form of a snake. Aiden watched it as it was flowing in the air, then Ethan said to Aiden once again,

"Focus your gaze on the gate, I'll cause this water to hit the middle of it from where I am standing".

..And with that, Aiden focused his gaze on the middle of the gate.

With mana, Ethan pushed the water as it began heading toward the gate. And just as he told Aiden, the water hit the middle of the gate and splashed on the floor.

And Aiden was like, 'This man is too good'.

Yes, he knew these things were pieces of cake for his dad, but he couldn't just deny the fact that he was too good. Apart from being good...he was also strong.
