"Ash, do you remember in the past when we were still kids? Before the six of us became close friends? You asked me what I was. And I said I myself didn't know what I was." Ryuga folds his arms and sends his gaze far out the window.
"It was because I didn't know. You and the others knew who and what you were. And wished I did too. But that kind of thinking completely vanished from my mind as days became years and I grew older." He paused for a moment.
"I remember, but I don't get what all that has to do with events of the past." Ash responded with an expression showing confusion.
"It was because I was a mere-blood. The race that was massacred two hundred years before we were born. The alchemist knew that, and she feared me. No, rather I should say, she feared my power." Ryuga turned his head to Ash.
