Chapter 39: Ki Point

Yuki felt excited he was sure that by Kabato-sensei teaching him he would become the strongest kizo user on the planet, but that dream was a very big one. And he had a worry that he couldn't do it all before he turned eighteen years old. 

"Yuki, I want you to listen closely to what I'm going to say." Kabato-sensei said while looking directly into Yuki's eyes. "There is a technique that can help you utilize the little ki your body can produce. Even if the ki you have is very little you will be able to use it to fight as though you have a large amount of ki stored up."

Yuki's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"This technique requires you to know where your ki point is." Kabato-sensei said while glancing at his palm.

"What's a ki point?" Yuki asked.

"A ki point is where all the ki in the body is produced, Sophia's ki point is in her lower abdomen." He said and pointed at Sophia, before pointing back at himself. "Mine is in the left shoulder."

"So how do I find out where it is?" Yuki quickly asked.

"By breathing." Kabato-sensei answered.

"What!? I thought I have go on an epic journey or something! But all it requires is breathing?" Yuki really wanted the training to get more exciting.

"I want you to find out where your ki point is and tell me." Kabato-sensei ordered.

"Fine, but you're not being very specific on how to find it." Yuki spoke while rolling on floor.

"You're smart enough to dodge a bullet, you should also be smart enough to find it." Kabato-sensei said while smiling.

Yuki's eyes widened as he heard Kabato-sensei's words.

'How did he know about that?' Yuki asked himself inwardly.

"Sophia, your training is going to be a lot harder than Yuki's." Kabato-sensei glanced at his daughter and smiled.

'I'm ready for whatever he throws at me.' Sophia inwardly said to herself.

Thirty minutes later…

Yuki was sitting on the in his regular crossed legged position, his eyes were closed, and his arms were folded. He was currently trying to find his ki point.

Sophia's training on the other hand was a lot harder than Yuki's. She was wearing metal bracelets on her arms and legs. Each bracelet weighed 50kg. She was currently sparring with a maid. Although the maid wasn't a kizo user, she was a skilled fighter. Sophia was having a hard time defending herself, the metal weights on her arms and legs slowed down her movements making it hard for her to move.

Sophia was getting beaten up badly. Yuki opened his eyes to see how Sophia was holding up. Ever since Sophia started sparring she hadn't landed a single hit on the maid, but she was always getting hit.

Sophia took a couple of steps backward and then dashed at the maid while arching her arm backwards, she threw the punch at the maid. But it was too slow, the maid easily dodged it and punched Sophia in the stomach.

Sophia fell to the ground and was even having a hard time getting up because of the weights. She had bruises all over.

"I think you should rest a bit Ma'am." The maid suggested politely.

"Yes, I think you're right." Sophia agreed.

She couldn't get up so she just lay on her back. She was sweating a lot.

Yuki got up and sat down next to her.

"Have you found your ki point yet?" She asked.

"No, I really don't know how to find it." Yuki paused. "You seem to be having a hard time."

"No, I'm not." Sophia denied.

"You should use those bracelets to your advantage. Don't go with straight forward attacks, be smart." Yuki said while scratching his head.

"I don't need your advice." Sophia glared at Yuki. "Don't forget that I'm stronger than you."

"I was trying to help." Yuki said before walking to the other side of the room.

Sophia thought about Yuki said.

The entire training session passed without Yuki doing anything. Sophia still wasn't able to land a single hit on the maid.

Yuki was walking home and he decided to buy something from a store. It was already dark and most of the stores were closed except this one. Yuki bought a bag of potato chips and munched on them while he walked home.

He bumped into Hana on the way home. She was also walking home. They both walked home together, when Yuki got home Yukari was in the living room watching a horror movie.

"Onii-san! You're home!" Yukari jumped on Yuki with joy.

"What's wrong with you?" Yuki asked. "I wasn't even gone that long."

"I missed you, that's all." She sat down on the couch and continued her movie.

Yuki showered and sat down next to her.

"Yukari, I want to ask you something." Yuki spoke.

"What is it?" Yukari turned to Yuki giving him her complete attention.

"Do you know about ki points?"

"Yes."

"Where is yours?" Yuki asked.

"Right here." Yukari touched the left side of her neck.

"Can you tell me how to find mine?"

"It's easy, all you have to do is focus. Focus on your body, be aware of everything; your body temperature, your heart beat. Feel every muscle in your body and then you'll find it. It's always warm and has a spiral shape. You'll know when you find it." Yukari explained.

"Thanks, can I touch yours?" Yuki asked politely.

Yukari's face flushed red when she heard this. Her cheeks began to heat up. "You can't actually touch it."

"Then can I touch your neck?"

"Ummm..." She became even more red. "Sure."

Yuki stretched his hand and touched her neck. He rubbed it gently and then he drew closer and sniffed her neck.

Yukari was bright red, her cheeks were incredibly hot and she could feel his breathe on her neck.

Yuki's eyes widened, he had got it. He had caught the smell of her ki point.
