Haru lay in his bed, lost in thought about the strange incident that had taken place earlier. He was trying to make sense of the situation, hoping to find an explanation for what had happened. Several answers came to his mind, but he ruled out chakra as the cause. He knew that chakra was a result of the fusion of spiritual and physical energy, but it didn't seem to fit. Being alone, the possibility of him being the victim of an illusion was ruled out. The only other explanation was nature energy, which existed in the atmosphere and on Earth. Haru didn't understand why he was able to sense it, as he knew that most people required extensive training to do so. In the end, he gave up trying to find an explanation and attributed this ability to his reincarnation, for the time being.

Haru decided to meditate once again, with the hope of gaining insight. He knew that this ability could be helpful in the future if he were to practice the Sage mode, but that was still to come. so, he needed to ensure it wasn't harmful in the present. Nature energy was a double-edged sword and required careful balance with chakra to avoid the consequence of petrification. Taking deep breaths, Haru meditated much faster this time and saw the sparks of different colors in the atmosphere, floating around him. Focused, he watched as the energy danced around him, but thankfully, it did not enter his body. After a few minutes to be certain, Haru breathed a sigh of relief, as there was no danger for the moment

Haru decided to create a more efficient training schedule. In the mornings, he would continue reading, while allocating afternoons for fishing. The ample space beside the lake would be used for physical training. Haru also recognized the numerous benefits of meditation and made time for it in his schedule.in addition, he resolved to thoroughly study nature energy, recognizing its potential significance in future stages. By preparing now, he aimed to gain advantage later. After finalizing his plan, he retired for the night, Anticipating a busy tomorrow

On the next day, Haru began his morning by having breakfast with the other children, then headed to the small library. He carefully selected some useful books,reading while taking notes , recording his thoughts and ideas. After a few productive hours, he returned to the dining table for lunch and then headed to the lake. There, he set his traps before starting his physical exercises.

He began with a warm-up, followed by jogging. At first, it was easy, but as his stamina dwindled , he found himself struggling to catch his breath. Haru took a break to calm his breath and then started again, this time with a focus on his breathing rhythm. He was aware that proper breathing was crucial in physical activities, so he persisted for two hours, taking breaks as needed. Finally, he sat by the lake, meditating for another hour, and finally cooked and ate his catch

When returning to the orphanage, Haru headed straight to clean himself. even though he was exhausted, he tried to stay awake for dinner, knowing that sufficient nutrition was necessary for his age. After finishing dinner, Haru realized with a groggy mind that he needed make time for a nap in his daily routine. His body was unable to keep up with the demands of the day and he needed additional time to expand upon his plans
