Richard starts screaming in pain and he gets engulfed in purple flames. Richard's eyes turn white and glowing dust starts coming out of them, the dust particles being the exact same as the Soul Breaker. Richard releases his energy and suddenly his inner world clears up, it is now no longer pitch black, but it looks like this
Richard finally calms down, looks around and says "Damn this place is creepy" Maria says "This is the living forest, your inner world seems to be based on a real location in the Otherworld" Richard looks down and sees the wound has started slowly healing by itself.
(Time passes)
Richard has talked a lot with Maria as she has mentioned most of the stuff from her youth, her fighting experience, Ryan's weakness and she even managed to train Richard to use his Spiritual weapon properly. Richard goes back to Maria and says "Hey, thanks for everything, its great to know i had someone like you as a relative" Maria says "And im proud that someone like you gets to inherit my power." Richard says "It was nice, but i shouldn't waste any more time, i need to get back and help my dad." Maria says "Of course, but before that, you will need a release command" Richard says "Is it necessary?" Maria says "Yes, and partially to look cool" Richard sees light shining outside of the forest and says "it seems like im waking up, but now is the time." Richard flies up and shouts "Thanks for everything, Maria!" Maria fades away. Kuei starts slowly forming in Richard's hand and he shouts "ATOMIZE, KUEI!" as he wakes up and runs towards Ryan at an imcomperhensible speed with his brand new weapon.
(Currently)Richard looks at the totems rising and says to himself "Now is my chance!" Richard teleports behind Ryan and sends a wave of erasure at the totems, very similar to the dust of a soul breaker. Ryan looks in shock and says "What did you do???" Richard says "One new ability i managed to discover just now, it's cool isn't it?" Ryan thinks to himself "I can't summon them anymore, what the hell kind of power did he achieve?" Richard says "The new ability i aquired allows me to erase Names. Anything that my dust touches loses its name, and thus its powers, and cannot be restored once it has happened. Therefore Ryan, you no longer have this factor of your power."
Ryan smiles and says "So you have done it, You managed to master your weapon in no time, im impressed, truly! Now i shall use my own weapon, ______!" Richard smiles and puts his hand to his ear and says "Huh? what was that?" Ryan looks shocked as his spiritual weapon isn't appearing.
