*Meanwhile at the Lands of Raijin*
As Makoto was dropped at the cellar in his tattered prison uniform, the cellar was so dark, no windows, no furniture, nothing only him, and the door behind him. He picks himself up and catches his breath, as the door opened and saw a man who is in the age of 16, dark blue spiky hair, white skin, maroon eyes, he wore a 15th Japanese blue armor, he was armed a wakizashi. As the man stands before his new prisoner and kneeled, " Shin Makoto Levi, what a pleasant surprise!" the man mockingly greeted, Makoto sends a death glare to the interrogator before him and asked in venom tone " What do you want?" the man chuckles and said, "It seems you know me before I was so-called 'kidnapped' by my uncle leaving my older brother alone in the wilderness in near-death state". Makoto widened his eyes and stuttered " Wait?! A-a-a-a-are y-y-y-you-u- he was cut off and the man took off his kabuto and stated.
"Yes, it is Kenji K. Arisato. I, welcome you to the Lands of Raijin, that closest land in the far north around 2.1 million miles sq. From the wicked and most corrupted land in the world that ever seen, the land was called " The Lands of Eregor!!!". Makoto was shocked and sent shivers into his spine, as Kenji smirked and said to himself" It seems the path has finally crossed between us brother, It is time to defeat 'our' enemies once and for all!!".
