He turned towards Tang Hao and said, "I shall wait outside till you both have your talk." Now, Tang Hao wasn't an idiot, he understood that his son wanted to talk about something and obviously didn't trust Ryusei so he was a bit hesitant to speak.
He said to Ryusei, "Wait, you don't have to go outside. Stay here." He then turned towards Tang San and said, "Son, you can trust him. Don't worry, he won't say anything about what you talk here."
Tang San was still a bit sceptical but he nodded and asked in a soft voice, "Father, can a person only have one spirit?" Tang Hao was a bit confused and didn't really understood the significance of his question but Ryusei did, he smiled and said, "So, you have awakened twin spirits, Am I right, Tang San?"
Tang San didn't expect him to answer and was a bit shocked, he then turned towards Tang Hao and said, "Yes, that is correct father. I have awakened twin spirits." Tang Hao was delighted when he heard this, he was happy that his son awakened twin spirits.
He asked in a curious tone, "So, what are your spirits?" Tang San raised his right hand and a Pale blue radiance appearing at the palm of his hand, in an instant, a blue delicate little grass appeared on top of his hand.
Staring dazedly at the blue silver grass in Tang San's hand, Tang Hao was in a spell of absent mindedness, for a long time until he gradually recovered. Bright eyes and swallowing hard, he murmured in a low voice, "Blue silver grass; it really is blue silver grass. And the same as hers."
He then heard his son saying, "This is my first spirit, Blue silver grass, a trash spirit. And this is my second…" This time, instead of a blue light, faint black light bubbled out from the centre of his palm, in a brilliant flash condensing, as a bizarre thing appeared in his hand.
That was an entirely pitch-black hammer. The hammer handle was about half a chi in length, with a cylindrical hammerhead. It would appear to resemble a smaller version of the forging hammer, yet that hammer's pitch-black surface had a peculiar light, and on the cylindrical hammerhead coiled a faint circle of a decorative pattern.
For some reason, just as the hammer appeared on the middle of Tang San's hand, all the air in the room seemed somewhat heavy, and Tang San just as if unable to bear the weight of that little hammer could only hold it, his arm slowly drooping. His facial expression had already become somewhat pale.
Abruptly, Tang Hao spread his strong arms, and tightly hugged Tang San to his chest. Ryusei watched this scene and smiled a bit as he knew that Tang Hao must have remembered about his wife. He already guessed that she must have the Blue river grass as her spirit while this hammer in Tang San's hand was the spirit from Tang Hao.
"Dad." Tang San stopped, rather dumbfounded. As far as he could remember, this was the first time Tang Hao had hugged him in this way.
The hammer in his hand seemed to become heavier and heavier, and even though Tang San very much liked the warmth from this paternal love, he even more did not want the iron hammer to slip out of his hand and smash his father.
Ryusei heard Tang San say, "Dad, I can't hold on." Tang Hao released his arms, "Withdraw it." Dispersing in black light, the weight disappeared.
Tang Hao was now smiling as he said to him, "Son, this Blue silver grass is the spirit from your mother. Remember to always protect your Blue silver grass with your hammer. Forever!"
Tang San nodded as he smiled while thinking about the spirit that he got from his mother. He then heard Ryusei speak, "Tang San, you said that your Blue silver grass is a trash spirit, well I tend to disagree. There are no trash spirits only trash people."
Tang San smiled as he heard his words and nodded as if he was accepting them. He turned towards him and said, "Thank you for your words." Tang Hao smiled as he saw them interacting, he was happy that his son was interacting with Ryusei.
Ryusei started speaking in a soft voice, "This spirit is from your mother so cherish it well and make it a strong spirit. So strong that others won't even think of calling it a trash spirit." Tang San nodded and smiled even more brightly as he heard him speak.
But Tang San also found a sense of melancholy in his voice, like he remembered something from his past. Ryusei calmed down and then saw Tang Hao looking at Tang San as he said, "Son, didn't you say you want to forge?"
He picked up a block of metal and put it into the furnace, he picked up his hammer as he said, "Now, remember my every moment."
He then said in a loud voice as he hit the metal, "Remember well!" and a loud voice was heard in the room. Ryusei and Tang San turned their complete attention towards Tang Hao's movements.
Both of them wanted to learn forging for a simple reason to make hidden weapons. After coming to this world, Ryusei realized that this world didn't have much advancement in their technology as they hadn't even made a simple crossbow. He knew that they definitely wouldn't expect someone to attack them with needles, kunai, shuriken, arrows and most importantly from a crossbow.
Tang Hao then stopped and picked out the metal from the furnace, he looked towards Ryusei and Tang San and asked, "Did you both see?" Ryusei replied without a moment's hesitation, "Yes, a total of 36 hits. All the impurities in the metal were cleaned out. You were using the strength from your calves as you hit the metal. When the heart inside your chest beat rapidly and the power originating from the two calves, force transmitted up, reaching the thigh, passing through the waist, back, arm, and finally releasing. This is how you hit with all your strength with minimal rebound effect. Isn't that right, Uncle Hao?"
Tang Hao nodded as he wasn't too shocked at the moment as he had already witnessed his intellect when Ryusei deduced his identity. The one who was greatly shocked was Tang San, he started thinking 'Who is he? He is actually so intelligent at such a young age. Even I wasn't able to deduce that much from just observing it once.'
Tang Hao started speaking in a calm voice, "Yes, he is correct. Son, remember that to exert the full strength of your body, you must use the strength of your calfs." He then looked at both of them and said, "Remember, to make good weapons from a good material is nothing, but it takes skill to make good weapons from normal material."
Both of them nodded as it was indeed true and Tang San said, "Yes, I will try my best!" He then looked at both of them and said, "Alright, both of you, give it a shot." The day passed away with both of them practising the Hammer Technique that Tang Hao taught them.
The next day, Ryusei and Tang Hao woke up early as both of them went towards the house of the Village Chief. Tang Hao asked him to escort Tang San to the Nortan Academy!
He also left a letter in the house which said "Xiao San: Father is leaving, don't look for me. I know that you want to be a spirit master, so go be one and study art at the Academy! Don't worry about me, I am with Xiao Tian right now and I will help him regarding his problem. Father is a useless person but I still have something I want to protect and I will do it this time. I haven't spent many memories with you so if you miss me then practise that Hammer technique. Son, I want you to be strong, but not too strong. No matter what lies ahead, be brave and walk ahead! And keep your Hammer Spirit a secret otherwise people would come to needlessly create problems for you."
While writing the letter, he started crying a bit. He then left the letter at the table and turned towards Ryusei and both of them nodded towards each other. Tang Hao carried him on his shoulder and started flying high in the sky.
After flying for an hour, they finally reached near the Star Duo Forest. Tang Hao put him down and turned towards him and said, "Alright then let's go inside the Star Duo Forest right now, but we should stay in the outer area as in the inner area, there are some 100,000-year-old beasts which are pretty strong that I won't be able to fight them and protect you at the same time."
Ryusei nodded as he didn't really have a problem with it, he didn't really want to fight a 100,000-year-old Beast as well, he just wanted to fight some weak Beasts to train his own combat ability and become stronger.
