He thought he died, again.

He screamed as his eyes snapped open, taking in air through his nostrils. With his abnormal breathing, he immediately noticed the unfamiliar room he's at.

"Where...?" He paused as he sensed someone is sitting not far from his bed. Snapping his head to the unknown individual, he waited for him to say something.

Ozpin was shocked to learn that the young man was unaware of Dell's real identity. "Dell Obsidian withheld his real story from you?" Ozpin shook his head at the thought and answered his question.

Upon hearing that from the Professor, Hikaru was stunned. "Dell participated in the War?" Ozpin nodded grimly.

Indeed. During the War he was one of Vale's most experienced captains. He was feared by many and became well-known for using his gunspear."
