Since I was coming into the future world later than others, I missed a lot of things, especially the knowledge about the Dying Will Flames. Tsuna once mentioned that I might need to take a long time to ignite the dying will flame from the ring. Sounded quite easy but it was much harder than I thought.

"Uh, are you really sure you want to wait for me to light up the flame from this ring?"

I was either feeling awkward or uncomfortable when the older Hibari patiently waited for me to ignite the flame from my future self's ring. If he was his present self, he would hit me for being too slow.

"Is there anything wrong?" he asked curiously.

"N-no, nothing wrong," I shook my head. "I'm just afraid that I might waste a lot of your time."

"I am fine with it. Besides, it won't take long for you to light up your dying will flame."

Both of us were in the training room and I was trying so hard to at least light up whatever dying will flames I had. All I need to know that my resolution was the key to awaken my dying will flame.

Fifteen minutes had passed and I still could not do it. I sighed and I gripped my hair with frustration.

"...I'm sorry. I can't do it..."

"You give up that fast? You almost make it, [Name]."

"I tried and there's no result," I groaned. "If only I could just fight off with normal weapons or my hands against the enemies."

"You have no choice, [Name]. Without your dying will flames, you are not able to survive any longer in this world."

"...then, what am I supposed to do?"

The older skylark did not complain further and he went near to me, flicking his finger gently against my forehead.

"Start off by stop whining about something you did not achieve. Now, I'll tell you what you should know about yourself."

"About me?"

"Have you ever wondered why your minor wounds healed on its own?"

"...I got this strange ability because of the Estraneo Famiglia's experiment. What does it have to do with my supposed dying will flames?"

"Of course it has something to do with it, [Name]."

"Are you trying to say that the flames are the one that healed my minor wounds?"

"That's right. The real question is what flame that heals your minor wounds?"

I never bother to know about my strange ability because it was painfully reminded me of my traumatic past, being the Estraneo Famiglia's test subject. I was rather surprised that it was the flames that healed my wounds and I need to figure out which flame was it.
