Summary

Kouga arrives to the home of his father's old friend, the Makai Priest Amon. Explaining that this is a night when Horrors cannot enter their world, Amon reveals that he and Taiga played a game of Bar Chess and wishes Kouga to finish what his father started.
During the match, Amon reveals he knows of Kaoru and suspects that Kouga is protecting her the same way his father protected him. However, Kouga admits he used Kaoru as a tool at first to find Horrors, but he grew to love her and is intent to save her.
Impressed, Amon reveals he knows of the item Kouga intends to save her with: The Varancas fruit within the Guren Forest, which he intends to get for Kouga once it is ripened.
Though Kouga is close to losing the game, and ten years of his life, Amon postpones the game like Taiga did years ago.
But before Kouga leaves for home, Amon presents him with another revelation: the chance that his father's pupil Barago is still alive and events will unfold where he has to know who is truly friend and who is truly foe.
