"Listen to me Ren! ", Obiriyu said to Ren through telepathy as he is connected to Ren soul, " You can't put yourself in danger for others. Don't poke your nose in others matter. "
"So you want me to just stand here, watch all these people suffer and pass by them like nothing happened in front of me!? ", Ren replied in a tone of anger to Obiriyu.
" Kid-", a wobbly voice came from old man, "You should may leave now. What know they will do what to you if they saw someone like you here. "
"What do you mean by someone like me? ", Ren asked in a questioning way.
" Maybe you haven't seen yourself kid. Let me show you how you look. ", old man said with wobbly tone.
"--!? ", a moment of silence remained from the side of Ren as he looked in mirror. It was something that he didn't expected. He saw that the way he look out was changed. He didn't looked like a regular human anymore. He do have White hair, a mid brown skin, pink eyes and lotus petals like design near his eyes and the cloth he wearing was white.
"Wait is that-", Ren said as a drop of sweat was about to drop off from his cheecks, he was startled,"...REALLY ME!? "
The old man moved his head in vertical line up and down as to answer yes for what Ren asked. "Yes, this is how you look. You may not have realised yet but you are a different entity now. So you better become strong enough to save yourself. Your aren't even powerful enough yet to defeat the Leader of GORGOS. Who can't even save himself yet, I think so he doesn't have any reason to protect someone else in that condition. " Old man finished with a reasonable tone making Ren feel the pressure of how useless he now in this situation.
"Come and rest in my house. Next day Go in the North-East direction. You will find a small Town. Live there and do try to get a grip of what is happening. " Old man said in commanding voice.
As the fight finished, everyone went in their House. Village Head, who was the old man with Whom Ren was, his House was on the middle west region of tribal land. As Ren was about to sleep in the house of Old man, a thought clicked through his mind. He went towards the room of Old man opening the wodden door with a sound of - "Bam".
" Oye Old man", Ren said loudly, "you didn't told me about what did a KAIJIN is! "
"Hahahahaha-", Old man started laughing suddenly, " Okay okay. Come here. Well I can tell you just a little about it though because I don't even know much about it. Since it is been Ten Thousands Year for me. " Old man stopped with a laugh.
"This old man is seriously crazy. ", Ren said as narrowing his eyes nearly close.
" Well, well ", old man started telling, " Back to the time when Yokai world was on the verge of collapsing, because the war between Gods and Yokai Realm ended dreadfully. So to maintain the Peace within Yokai Realm and to calm the chaos that was brewing, God's lent a little freedom to Yokai to determine who will rule the Yokai Realm. " As the Old man Started telling story the surrounding seemed to blend with it.
"They told Yokais that they can connect themselves to humans to become a new entity, so after it they will give them a task and whoever do it first will become the King of Yokai Realm. At that time they didn't warned the Yokai about one thing! " With a sharp deep tone Old man stated.
"So what was that? " Ren asked with a expression of excitement.
"There do is a thing... If Yokai have to connect with Human soul and to bond themselves with Human. But if they didn't meet that requirement... Then the Body of Yokai and Human will collapse together as just leaving the ashes behind of it." Old man said with a monition tone.
"Waitttttt-", that mean if the yokai with whom my body is connected, if we weren't capable enough then I might have die with that Yokai!? " Ren asked in a tone of Fear.
"Yes my child. You understand very well! Hahahahah.... Hahahah! ", old man said with laughing.
Old man continued..., "Then the quest began. A race between all the Yokais who was able to connect themselves with human. So to those Entity that was made by the connection of two body and souls - Yokai and Human was Named — KAIJIN. " Old man finished the topic.
"So KAIJINs are really special... Aren't they? " Ren asked to Old man, by putting his arms crossed and right hand thumb and first finger over his chin to show a expression of questioning and thinking.
"Who know... I'm Old now. I don't know much about this world now. Now go and sleep. Tomorrow you have to go. " As old man finished saying, he turn his body to left in horizontal position to sleep.
Ren left the room with a question in his mind to know more about this world, what is really a KAIJIN, and how can he make himself enough powerful to not just protect himself but to protect other people's too who are precious to him. As Ren went through it he made his mind to start it with helping the boy tomorrow by unleashing hin from board. He went to his room to sleep unknown to what the Future uphold for him.
