After analyzing how he looked Yaruhaze yelled, "Who are you?!" with a scary expression on his face. The man chuckled, "Who am I? Who do you think I am?" he asked. "How the hell am I supposed to know?" Yaruhaze losing his patience jumped high with the support of his power, he threw a punch at him but he missed. He realized the man wasn't standing there anymore, suddenly he felt a blow on his stomach. The man had kicked him, Yaruhaze didn't even have a moment to react and shot down like a bullet. Hanarase who witness all of that ran towards Yaruhaze covered in scratches, she uses her healing magic on him. The man noticed what Hanarase was capable of and took an interest in her power. Since the power to heal wasn't common to people, on top of that Hanarase's power was extremely powerful which means she can heal wounds or severe injuries faster. The man summoned a barrier that surrounded Hanarase dragging her away from Yaruhaze who was almost completely healed. Yaruhaze shocked and yelled, "Where are you going with her!? Let her go!". The man chuckled, "Life isn't that easy boy, if you want her back, pursue me to the depths of hell, and just to make it easier I'm Ghathos the God of Despair, now goodbye," Yaruhaze cringed holding back the tears in his eyes. The man vanished in a blink of an eye, taking Hanarase with him. Yaruhaze promised to himself to get stronger and face Ghathos, he knew it's not an easy feat to be able to defeat a God with his current strength. Yaruhaze was afraid what he might do to her, and sought for power quickly.
After preparing for a few days Yaruhaze travelled to the next town near Naudstant, it was slightly bigger and was said to have the best trainers in the kingdom. "Welcome to the town Varconia!" greeted some towns people, Yaruhaze smiled at the welcoming atmosphere. He felt more relaxed in that town than in Naudstant, since he was always given strange looks that contained hatred towards him. He took a break off school for a while to train and eventually bring Hanarase back. He took magic classes and fighting classes preparing to pursue Ghathos, "Hey, not too bad kid!" said the trainer in charge of his magic classes "I'm Malcros, your magic instructor". Malcros was in awe of Yaruhaze's skill with magic, "It seems like your magic power is strong, but you can't control it well," said Malcros. Yaruhaze thought about what the trainer said, he started to practice controlling his magic during his breaks without rest. During a practice match against the trainer, Yaruhaze held on against him for a while. "Looks like someone got some practice, but- its not enough...to defeat...me!" struggled Malcros, the trainer let out a blow of magic and won. Yaruhaze grits his teeth and mumbled to himself, "After all my training, that wasn't enough to win against him? Damn he's strong,". Malcros walks towards him and helps him up, "Nice try, but it will take a bit more than that to take me down, but you have been practicing right?" smirked Malcros. "Yes sir, I practiced during my free time," replied Yaruhaze, "Pretty devoted I see, do you have a reason why you're working so hard to get stronger?" curiously asked Malcros. Yaruhaze stared blankly at him like he had seen a ghost, Malcros waved his hand in front of him and asked, "Um... are you alright? Maybe I shouldn't have asked," Yaruhaze snapped out of it and began to recall what had happened that day.
