The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

Chapter 3 Making Friends?

Ailo is the crown prince, so his brother is a prince. Zuko is Ailo's nephew, which is his brother's son, the prince's son, and the emperor's grandson.

understood.

"Zu Kou Hall"

"You two are about the same age, so you can just call each other by name."

Airo abruptly interrupted Kahn and said to Zuko, "His name is Kahn, he's the son of a friend of mine. I hope you two can get along well."

"I understand, Uncle Airo."

Zuko nodded obediently, then said to Kahn, "Hello Kahn, you can just call me Zuko."

Kahn glanced at Airo and replied, "Okay. Hello Zuko, nice to meet you."

"Me too!"

Zuko responded happily.

Like a little puppy.

Kahn silently evaluated Zuko in his mind.

Isn't it too impolite to evaluate a grandson of the emperor like this?

"I'm glad you've both made a new friend, but I think you'll need some time to spend together."

Airo patted the two of them on the shoulder:

"I'll stay somewhere far away from you, and I hope you can get to know each other well."

He moved to a spot just a distance away from the two of them, a distance that would neither disturb them nor let them out of his sight.

"Feed"

Kahn watched Aiolos's departing figure with a helpless expression. "I don't want to get to know a little kid like him."

"..."

"..."

After Elo left, Kahn and Zuko looked at each other in silence.

Kahn and the child couldn't find anything to say, so they simply stopped talking, since he wasn't afraid of feeling awkward.

As long as he doesn't feel embarrassed, it's others who feel embarrassed.

However, Zu Kou wasn't embarrassed; he was just a little shy and excited, trying hard to organize his thoughts.

Finally, Zuko spoke first, asking, "Hey, Kahn, how do you usually play? Can we play together?"

What do you usually do for fun?

Kahn couldn't help but recall the scenes of him imitating the poses and reciting classic lines of anime characters from his past life in the yard when he was bored, and the little skits he looked forward to every night before bed...

Speaking of which, lately he's been fond of imagining and imitating characters with fire abilities, because he can now play with fire too. Not only can he add special effects when imitating actions, but he can also hone his fire control skills while having fun, which is a win-win situation.

Ahem, I've gone off-topic.

However, these things definitely cannot be said. It's not a matter of shame or not, but mainly because I'm afraid little Zukou won't understand.

So Kahn considered it for a moment and replied:

"Normally, I mainly study and practice fire control techniques."

That's right, I am a diligent and studious elementary school student.

Kahn affirmed himself in his mind.

Hearing Kahn's answer, Zuko was somewhat disappointed: "Isn't that the same thing I usually do?"

Then, a thought struck him, and he suggested:

"Aren't you going to play with the other people? Why don't we go find some others to play with?"

"But I prefer learning; learning makes me happy."

Kahn gave a very serious answer.

He just turned down someone's invitation, and now he's going to ask them for help again? Doesn't he have any pride?

"That, that, that..."

Faced with Kahn's rejection, Zuko was at a loss and looked to Airo not far away for help.

But Aiolos just smiled and waved at him, without making any other move.

Looking at Zuko, who seemed a bit lost, Kahn suddenly thought the child was quite cute and fun to tease (?).

But this guy is a prince, so it wouldn't be good to make him cry. What if he holds a grudge and comes back to persecute me?

So Kahn took the initiative and said, "I was about to go to the library, would you like to come with me?"

"OK!"

Zuko immediately agreed happily, forgetting for a moment who had just rejected his proposal, leaving him at a loss and seeking help from Uncle Ailo.

This kid is quite interesting.

At that moment, Kahn seemed to have awakened some kind of interest.

As Zu Kou walked along the road, he looked left and right with a look of novelty, as if he had seen a rare sight. But all around him were only groups of students and some ordinary scenery.

Kahn asked, "Haven't you ever gone out before?"

Zu Kou shook his head: "My father forbids me from leaving home to play, but our family occasionally goes on trips together. However, I can't run around, or I'll get scolded."

"I was able to go out today because my Uncle Ai Luo was with me."

Kahn sympathized with him, for it was indeed miserable for a child to be locked up at home all day.

However, Kahn could understand Zuko's father's actions. After all, Zuko was the emperor's grandson, and for Zuko's personal safety, he really couldn't run around.

Then Zuko curled his lip: "Only Azura runs around like that and doesn't get scolded."

"Azura?"

Kahn was somewhat bewildered by the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar name.

"Yes, Azura, she is my sister."

Zu Kou nodded, then complained:

"But sometimes I even doubt we're siblings at all; she's absolutely insane!"

Zukor became visibly annoyed at the mention of Azura, and was about to complain to Kahn when he heard Kahn say:

"We've arrived at the library."

Upon hearing this, Zuko immediately forgot about his complaint about Azura and looked up.

There are three sections of nine steps in front of you, at which sits a huge, antique-style library.

Although the imperial palace library was much more magnificent and solemn than the library in front of him, Zu Kou still found it very novel, because there weren't as many people coming and going in the imperial palace library as there were in front of him.

Before even entering the library, the previously noisy environment became quiet. Most of the people entering and leaving the library were older than them, but there were also some of similar age, holding books and very quiet.

Zu Kou subconsciously held his breath, almost suffocating himself.

Kahn chuckled, patted him on the back to signal him to relax, and then walked forward: "Come on, let's go inside."

Zuko snapped out of his daze and quickly followed behind Kahn.

Zu Kou was neither a student nor a teacher at this school, nor had he paid any fees, so he shouldn't have been allowed in. However, the librarian recognized the Crown Prince of Huo Lie Kingdom who was following behind them.

The librarian respectfully stepped forward, and the two exchanged a few words in hushed tones. Airo smiled broadly, and after they finished talking, the librarian bowed to Airo.

Although Airo suffered a major defeat, he still seems to be very popular among the people of the Fire Nation.

Upon entering the library, Kahn went straight to his target bookshelf and began searching for his book.

Zu Kou casually picked up a thick book from the side, which was titled "History of the Fire Kingdom, Part Three". As soon as he opened it, the dense text made him dizzy, and he didn't even recognize many of the characters.

It turns out this is a bookshelf categorized by history.

Zuko was surprised and asked Kahn:

"Can you read the books here? I don't recognize many of the words."

Kahn scratched his cheek: "Me? I'm fine, I don't have any problems with general reading."

God knows why the writing system in this world is Traditional Chinese, but it's very convenient. Although I can't write some of the characters, I can still understand most of them.

"Ah, found it."

Finally, Kahn found the book he wanted above his head. Zuko curiously leaned over and saw that the book was called "The Avatar: The Last Airbender".

"Avatar? I know that. My mother mentioned it when she told me a bedtime story."

Upon seeing a familiar name, Zu Kou became somewhat excited.

"A bedtime story about history?"

Hmm, it seems there's no problem.

Kahn was initially surprised, but then immediately understood.

As a world with superpowers, history looks much like a novel, especially the book "The Avatar: The Last Airbender" in his hand, whose content is so fantastical that it's hard to believe it's real.

He himself reads this thing like a novel.

After receiving the book, Kahn prepared to begin reading, but looking at Zuko standing to the side, he thought for a moment and suggested:

"How about I read it to you?"

"OK!"
