The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 165
Advertisement
Yang Dao's humming surprised the reporter but she noticed the shock on Viktor's face. The old man suddenly started to laugh. He turned his head to a man standing a few pit stops away and yelled, "Sylvan, the humming is back."
His loud voice attracted the man and he had a strange expression on his face. He did not clearly hear what Viktor was saying. Suddenly a technician came and said something to the man. His strange expression turned into a shock. Soon, the pit crew turned on the secondary listening channel and they heard a humm sound being broadcasted by the commentators.
...
On the track, Yang Dao was humming as he drove. His humming was not useless and neither was it just for his entertainment. As he hummed in sync with the vehicle, he started to notice the slight time-lapse in his control. Even after Micro-control, he was not completely at the peak of his skills.
Soon, he finished a lap. His timing improved by milliseconds. The boy did not stop and kept running the laps faster and faster, every lap was getting faster by a few milliseconds. Viktor glanced at the timesheet and gasped. He then sighed and said, "This kid is going for the all-time best. he is ready for a refuel and tire change. Get ready."
The crew yelled, "Yes."
Yang Dao completed the fifteenth lap and he could see the tail of the racers. He asked Viktor, "Chief, how fast can they finish the stop?"
Viktor replied, "Two seconds." his voice was calm. Even if there were no races the crew would also train regularly.
Yang Dao nodded and said, "I am coming in then." with that said, he entered the pit lane. The others will be coming in after him. As soon as the car stopped the pit crew jumped into action. The boy had his gaze fixed to the stop and go board in front of him. Just as he took a deep breath the stop board was retracted and the boy stepped onto the accelerator.

He was so focused on the race that he could not hear any other sound. His sprints became faster and the cornering became sharp. Soon, within half a minute he caught up to the tail of the rest of the racers.
The racer at the end did have no idea that as soon as he would turn, He would be overtaken from the outside. Yang Dao was weaving through the traffic. He was humming as he focused more. He even made the clicking noises when he was shifting gear. But it was all in his mind.
Viktor was shocked, he was about to ask the former something when he heard a loud cheer from the kids among the VIPs.
"THE SILENT GHOST."
He could not help but turn to them and asked, "Hey kids, what ghost?"
Ray spoke up, "He will be silent and move like a ghost. The silent ghost. Just watch it."
...
On the track, Yang Dao moved like a specter. The drivers did not even see when he came behind them, matched their driving pattern, and slipped past them. This shocked the whole crowd and the experts watching this event.
Viktor was surprised and overwhelmed with great joy. He sighed as he sat down in front of a monitor, "This kid, is a genius. He evolved the Humming."
Karl asked him, "How?"
Viktor said, "When someone hums in sync with their vehicle they find some flaws in their driving and optimize it. These faults are basically timing. Now, what is he doing? He catches up to them, syncs his motions with them, finds out the flaws, and then passes them. even Sylvan could not do it back in those days."
This was Yang Dao's genius. He took up a technique, mastered it, and even improved it.

...
Back on the track, Yang Dao came to second place and found that Mika was rushing ahead and she was leading. The girl realized that she was too concentrated on Yang Dao, at this moment she also concluded was that if she focused on doing her best, only then can she catch up to Yang Dao. She was leading by quarter lap, while Yang Dao was leading by a full lap.
Yang Dao's car sound was lower than the other people's, this was noticed by some people and they asked why this was happening? Viktor could only shrug. They had no idea. While the others were at a loss. Feng Yun mumbled, "Elemental Assistance."
Ryu Jinshi nodded as he said, "The endowment of the heavens, as the dao child gets focused the elements themselves will help him."
...
On the 26th lap, Yang Dao caught up with Mika. The boy began the chase without any delays. he passed Mika, but the girl was not an easy one too. She would keep up and try to pass him as well. The two soon forgot that they were racing. They were having fun with it.
But on the 27th lap, Yang Dao broke away and he extended his lead and by the 30th lap, he has vanished from Mika's eyesight once again. She did not give, just then she heard a voice in her helmet, "Mika, pit stop. The tires are too hot to continue."
The girl nodded and drove back to the pit stop. She happened to see Yang Dao's car merging with the track after a pit stop. She was eager to catch up with him and skipped the pit stop. Her grandfather yelled in the microphone, "MIKA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Mika ignored his voice and kept racing, suddenly it started raining. The girl noticed that the car has become somewhat slippery. Her lead gradually shortened but she still managed to keep the position of second place. Soon she entered the pit, they changed the car tires and she continued racing again.
Her eyes kept looking for that boy to show up but to no avail. She did not know that if she was fifty percent ahead of the rest then Yang Dao was hundred percent ahead of her. The boy was running among the traffic again by the time they had 40th lap.

"I'm Screwed" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This story uses the system derived by Puddles4263 in Randidly Ghosthound. I've incorporates the Path's system into the leveling of this story. Some of the beginning paths will be similar or the same as I thought that the starting paths were very logical on how a system should start. The stories will be completely different as the characters and story arcs will be completely different. Again, thank you Puddles for allowing me to use your system, really appreciate it! I also wanted to thank ProFound Magician. Has a lot of insight into a story development and as his system is based on Ghosthound, I saw a some beginning stage skills that should be thought of in a character just starting out. If you haven't yet read Ghosthound or Genesis System you're in for a real treat when you do! Thank you both I hope my use is seen as an homage in the beginning. Hopefully my story can live up to the system.

No Strings Attached [Rewritten]
Warning Just so you know, you better be paying attention to the chapter title or else it's going to be like travelling across multiverses. Explanation Due to a single comment made by a wonderful person, or some douchebag in real life, I have decided to create two seperate stories. A rewritten version, and the original version. The rewritten version will somewhat follow the original storyline of the original version, but will have extra content, extra side stories of course rewritten personalities. The original one will be like a rough draft of where I want the story to go. Like for instance, the original story is like the first Link from 'Legend of Zelda', choppy but fun to read. The rewritten story is the Link from any game during and after Windwaker, smooth and somewhat follows the main premise. Overall both are going to be probably terribly done but hey, I'm creating a furture and past story so what should you expect. - Styx Whatever just put up the revised description. - Ariel Edited Summary Jay W. Blu, a dashing and charming rich boy who's been spoiled his whole life. He is very cocky, has a case of egomania and isn't exactly what you call a 'Relatable Main character', unless you somehow fit one of these descriptions and then relate all you want. He had everything you would probably want if you weren't pessimistic, realistic, or chronically depressed. But as most reincarnation/summoning stories go, he get's himself killed at whatever age he was and is sent to another world. Normally, he would be summoned as something you would call a hero, but since that's to cliche by my standards he is something else. Instead of being the hero of the people that he was told about by a friend, he instead summoned as the anti-hero aka, 'The Hero of Demons'. Now he must traverse the lands slaying opposing heroes as he tries to keep his mind straight, although it's to late. There will be weird people along the journey like a fangirling war general, a hive mind and a manly magical girl? Oh well, Jay is too pure to see love anyways.
