It was on the day of the Mock War that my mind was plagued by strange dreams.
These dreams were reminiscent of the ghastly nightmares I used to have in my previous life when I was a kid.

His father would playfully tousle his hair every time he would visit him during his training.

As I gazed at the weapon technique being executed before me in that dream, a spark of recognition flared up within me.
