Bab 26: The Start of Training
A few days have passed and now Riku was fully recovered and able to start training again. He was at home and his mother called him to go outside into the back of their house. He meet his mother and he saw her spirit which was a golden wind sylph named Kazehana. She was a very small fairy like person that resonated a gold color from her body.
Yukine: Are you ready to train in spirit resonance?
Riku: Yes.
Yukine: Ok then summon Asami and we can begin.
Riku summoned Asami in her human form and they started to train. The idea of spirit resonance was to fuse your spirit with your body giving you amazing power from the spirits specialties as well as it enhances your body in general. The reason that Riku is only able to perform a partial resonance is because it is very hard as he needed to control his chakra and his spirit's at the same time. This resonance technique is very difficult and only the people with higher talent in the clan could achieved it. Riku although at a young age possessed a great talent in the spirit arts and might soon become the youngest to perform a full resonance.
Yukine: I know it is hard to control the sudden burst of power from chakra and to maintain it at a safe level. But the more you attempt it the more use to it you will be but make sure not to lose control.
Riku attempted the resonance as he connected with Asami who was being combined with him. Soon a sword in his hand appeared and his right arm started to glow in a white light and a mark appeared on his shoulder which was the kanji for purification and it started to spread as half his face was covered in a white light and his silver hair had a light green outline to it. His right eye started to be a gradient of azure blue and sea green. The resonance stopped half way through as he felt he was losing control of the chakra and the transformations slowly reverted back to the original as Asami appeared again becoming unfused from his body.
Yukine: You got to half this time. Soon you will be able to do a full resonance. But remember although you have a burst of power you need to stay calm and control it.
Riku continued to practice his resonance for the rest of the day. He started to try to improve the amount of resonance he could enter with his mother watching to make sure he was at a safe level of control and didn't get hurt. He got his resonance to about 60 percent and with the continuous training his mother guaranteed that he would be able to perform a full resonance before the third exam.
The next day it was decided that he would start to improve the potency of his sever release with his father. This morning he meet his father in the same area that he first trained with Ryu in the forest. The idea today was to help him strengthen his sever release and to increase the range of his sever release.
Hayato: As you already know the sever release is very potent and deadly and above all hard to control.
Riku: Yes that is one of the reasons I am so hesitant with strengthening it.
Hayato: If you are afraid of the sever release you can never master it.
Riku: I know but whenever I use it in desperate times I always get hurt.
Hayato: That is understandable every sever release user faces this I will help you do some chakra control training for the sever release.
They went further into the forest until he found himself in a place with a place with many boulders and a river flowing by. He was confused on why they came here when his father applied sever release to his right pointer finger and started to chop at the rock as he was doing this a figure emerged from the rocks the figure was a image of Riku himself.
Hayato: This is one of the ways I trained my sever release. Your sever release can cut through a boulder with your sword but this I want you to use your finger. This way you control the chakra to not hurt you as well as the fine detailing of the sculpture but you also have to increase the strength of the sever release.
Riku: That is crazy.
Hayato: Trust me the most important thing for you is to get over the hesitation once you do that the chakra's power will come and soon after everything will fall into place. The easiest way to get over that hesitation
Riku went to one of the nearby boulders and cloaked his finger in sever release. He felt the pain from using the sever release n his body but he needed to persist he started to cut through the boulder but the cut was very rugged and not clean like his fathers. He needed the power and control to be there to do this. He knew to reach his father's level there was no way he could finish this training before the finals but it would improve his control and power of his sever release.
