I've been here a few days now with Mai and honestly not a lot has happened just yet, mostly getting settled in. Sorakami has been preoccupied finishing up some small things he had to do before starting our training.
Being stuck around people who actually know who I am makes me feel a lot better but I'm not sure how he remembers.
"What exactly is going to happen?" Mai questions while Sitting next to Haru.
"I'm going to surpass the S class ranking that I possess and I'll be even stronger than before." Haru responds while looking up at the ceiling.
Training, something that I haven't done in quite some time with anybody.
"If anyone can do it, it'd be you." Mai says confidently.
Her attitude about things has changed quite a bit since she realized I was the hero who saved her life years ago. I'm glad I can remember doing that myself now but I don't know who else has the power to remember me.
"Hey it's time to start teaching you things again." Sorakami speaks up from across the room.
"I'm ready." Haru replies while standing up.
Without hesitation he followed behind Sorakami further into the temple where they reached a massive room. The room was full of different weapons, armor, and even some practice dummies.
"I've crafted this room myself and made it into something that makes it possible for us to surpass our limits." Sorakami mentions while walking to the center of the room.
"You've done a great job then. What skills do you plan to show me?" Haru questions with a bit of curiosity.
Sorakami's hands begin to emit black and white light from one another as he stands before Haru.
"For decades they talked of Yin and Yang but I believe I've come to find the full potential of the two combined. Creating lots of skills that I can show you. But I'm only going to show you one because it's one of a kind and the rest will be ones you used to know." Sorakami begins to explain.
He gestures for Haru to charge at him and of course he doesn't hesitate to listen to his instructions. Within seconds of reaching Sorakami he hits a field that flashes within moments as a black and white light.
"I call this perfect balance. A skill that allows for a field to be placed anywhere you please to protect you from an attack. This is the same one that you witnessed in front of the demon lord." Sorakami continues to talk while standing on the other side of the field.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing before me again but he was right that this was the same sight as before. That field that formed before me that kept the attack from even connecting with me.
"How would I be able to use this?" Haru asks while observing the field.
"You already know how the two work in unison as you were the primary one to use the combination. This skill was created by me personally though. Allow me." Sorakami responds as the field disappears and he places his hand onto Haru's shoulder.
Flashes of memories begin to go through Haru's head with the same white and black lights going past his eyes.
S class skill, Wings of an Angel. * (This skill allows the user to move with speed faster than a human thought was possible while also gaining a brief moment of time to fly through the air.).
I remember this skill being something I used to combine with Heavens strength, both of these made for a deadly combination. I'm going to need more and more of these skills to come back to me.
Perfect balance immediately forced itself into my mind and I could feel the ability to use it appearing as if it was nothing.
"I'm seeing flashes of memories. Is this normal?" Haru asks while holding onto his head in pain.
It wasn't a pleasant feeling, pain was going all throughout my head as I saw each flash.
"It is. I'm sharing memories of the days you showed me these skills yourself before you left to find the left hand." Sorakami answers while keeping his hand firmly on his shoulder.
More and more continued to flash through his mind with thoughts of these skills starting to manifest once again.
S Class skill, Dragons Fiery. * (A gauntlet can form within the choice of the users dominant hand and gives them the strength of a dragon within that gauntlet.)
That skill was one that took me three years to master before I could fully use it and I still am surprised that I managed to achieve the ability to use it.
I know that I used something to heal me as well back after that battle with the general but now I'm seeing something that makes sense.
A Class skill, Recovery. * (Allowing for light healing of wounds and stops blood loss.)
I can't believe I've forgotten so many of these skills over the course of time.
"Perfect balance is the only SS class skill that I'll give you while the others you need to make yourself. The power is in you, just like it is within me." Sorakami says with a serious tone.
"I should've been stronger than this by now then." Haru responds with a bit of frustration in his voice.
If what he's saying is true then why am I not stronger already? Why couldn't I create a skill to stop that curse from even happening?
"It's not easy to use Haru. It took me five years to do but that's why I'll help you so it doesn't take you as long as it did for me." Sorakami says with reassuring tone.
After that he began to fight with Haru for a while, trying to get him to use the power from within. A power that was put into heroes like the two of them to give them the chance to surpass limits that were placed on them.
These limits are what we know as classes, some don't even manage to get pass B or even A class. S class and SS are some of the rarest ones to achieve.
But Sorakami found the way to surpass this.
