My name is Otaro Yakuko Potomaki, and I'm Osoroshi’s older brother and when I was only four years old my parents trained me to be an S rank guardian. From there on my wish was to be an S rank guardian, just like my dad. He was the guardian of our village and my brother wanted to be like my dad too so as soon as I turned 10 I helped train my brother to be as skillful and powerful as me and my father. This was only the start of our journey. We trained and trained over and over, but he still couldn't beat me, but I also helped him go on missions like catching cats from a house which would also help my family with their money too. He would try to hit training logs until he was very hungry. He had high hopes of beating me one day so I taught him his first and most easy to control secret family move, it was called Flame Mark. At first, he would struggle to make it but then for his first time he did it successfully. We lived a peaceful life like that until the village elders told me I had to go on a big mission. At first I did not think much of it, but when I found out what they were trying to get me to do, I freaked out. What I had to do was kill my dad. I thought they were going crazy. Like they said what? I asked them, “Are you sure of what you want me to do?” And they said yes, so I had to defeat my father for whatever reason. They wanted me to do that, and they wanted me to do it within a month because they knew I wasn't as strong as my father. So I trained the hardest I could. I even made my own secret move. I called it Earthquake Devastation. I made another move called Inferno Shock, because it was black fire mixed with a lighting blade. It took me hours to come up with all this. And by the time I was done training, my whole body was exhausted. I wanted to stop training there, but I knew what was on the line. If I fought my dad and lost, I would die, and the whole village would see me as a weak child. So I trained for hours upon hours everyday so I could be able to kill my father. I still was not sure about the whole thing though, because he was my dad. Although I did not get to know my father well because I moved out early to get better training, I loved him! I could not just kill him like that, but I had to, or else I would die. I did not know how strong my father was either so I had to think of how strong he was. So I trained for 3 more days, and then came the day of the fight. I was still kind of tired but I was still able to fight like a B rank guardian. So I went to the village gates and I saw my dad. He said, “HEY OTARO OVER HERE!!!!!” Even though I knew what I was supposed to do, I started a conversation. When the conversation ended, I used my strongest move against my father. As I said the last word of the conversation, my dad quickly said, “Hey you have a pattern in your eyes.” At this age I was only 11. My dad told me that he has a secret move which will make me see myself kind of like a mirror. I looked at myself and I had a black pupil with 3 dots and it looked like there was a circular line in my pupil that connected these dots together. My father said it was mythical, but I still couldn't believe him. This would help my father's moves if he caught me off guard. I've only heard of these eyes but now I know they're real, I thought to myself. Just like the stories I heard, these two eyes look like… the EYE OF THE GODS!!!! My father said only 2 people have been seen with that eye and that's from 90,000 years ago… Then out of nowhere the dots on my eyes were spinning and then I saw my dad in a cross with Black Flames all over him. It was like I was in an alternate universe where I controlled time and space. Then I figured out a combo. What I did was use the alternate universe technique, then I would use my eye to spawn black flames on him. I don't know how I can make Black Flames, but I just said, “Okay that looks cool.” Then out of nowhere both my arms had black flames on them and it was like all I had to do was just put energy into my hand and it would automatically throw Black Flames out of them. But then I turn on I'm old but then my father got out of that alternate universe and he knew what I was about to do next and out of nowhere there's just this white sword made out of a random aura. In my other hand there was a black sword with black frames and lightning flowing through. Out of nowhere my eyes gave me a random instinct to my swords. and my father dodged all the slashes. Then, I held both my swords in one hand. It turned into a sword with 1/2 that was white and then another half that was black with black flames and lightning flowing through it. I slashed to the right and slashed to the left and my father didn't get damaged. It was a clone. My real father came behind me with his energy balled up into a hand and he made this lightning ball. He hit me with the lightning ball and I was damaged severely. I had nearly no power or energy left so as my finishing move I used all of the moves I have learned over time and sliced all around in a circular form. Then, I had this sudden feeling of my eye hurting so I put myself in that alternate universe and grabbed a piece of glass. I looked at myself and both of my eyes, and instead of just three dots there was a triangle with blue inside of it. I noticed that my other eye was not red and black anymore it was WHITE AND BLACK. I tried turning my blue eye on and off but it never turned off. I went out of the universe and saw my dad lay dead on the floor. I told myself the stories are correct. If you KILL the person dearest to you, your eye will turn a different color and one of your eyes will look different from before. I told the village elders I had done it.
A boy was trained at the age of just 4 years old to become a top ranked guardian. He makes friends and goes on missions, but unlocks somethnig very... sinister.
