As Ryu had agreed to the terms, Rantaro and Sayaka had started to take Ryu to the world that they had to go through as their journey had ended.
But then, Sayaka and Rantaro told him that he had to fight alone in order to retrieve his old powers, Ryu had doubts but agreed to them.
As Rantaro had left with his wife allow Ryu in his mission, Ryu went looking around the dark halls of these tunnels and as he made his way out of the tunnel.
He felt rapid and positively dangerous energy that may kill him soon enough if he ever was to get near it. Ryu then made his way around the wastelands that It was currently in.
And as he got to a reclusive house, he began to wonder what was it that was so important that this tournament had to occur.
As he was faced with a surviving mindless monster went straight after him as he had first encountered him and immediately attempted to eat his arm off.
Luckily Ryu's stayed intact as it had stopped attacking and started retreating. What made it strange for Ryu was how it was in that state.
When he had found the source of the energy and as he was making his way there, he was interrupted by a being with body parts that were mended.
As it attacked, it left a stab wound on Ryu but was surprisingly alive and as he tried to get closer to the source. This being had pushed him away.
As it had injured Ryu from before, that monster had returned and had brought reinforcements. "There .... boy .... is ..... kill him ..... before ... mistress gett .... get .... angey!!!!!"
When it came to attack Ryu, Ryu with the limited energy that he had left teleported away from them and mend to his wound. Ryu felt weak to go on.
But Ryu didn't even give up that was when, he came face to face to the original Ryu Narukami. "So this is me in 20 years huh?
Well I have to say that I really am not that incredible but you seem to harness this power that mom was about to bestow upon me, thankfully I was safely in you for years.
Why do think you are able to laugh? Able to Cry? And all of that, be the one that defeats them for good? The tournament may soon begin and you need to he ready".
He then left the Ryu Narukami that we knew by himself as he has to know what he must be missing. He then spotted some of the beasts.
As they were looking for him, his mind had planned something with the short amount of powers he had.
Ryu then found an amulet that was in the snow as he was about to make his move, when he got ready to get plan into motion but the amulet made it more easier.
As he had kept it in his pocket, he went for a strategise attack in which he took the the minions one by one and as he did so.
His powers were being drained out of him, as he was going to get himself killed, the amulet glowed and covered Ryu's body and had changed his appearance.
As he went berserk on them as a beam of destruction, he made his way to the main protector from what he had wanted. As he went for the attack.
But as he did, he lead a big hole in the middle and had caused an avalanche as the area had started crumbling.
