Seed Cashima

Seed is the red haired protagonist of Toushin Toshi II. Starting off as a weak swordsman who never managed

to get past level 4, even with years of training, he needs to quickly become more powerful in order to be able to marry his girlfriend Hazuki. In order to qualify for the tournament, he uses his sort-of sister as his partner for the tournament; then he needed to pass the qualification exam, which was to get the a pass from the elder Isoroku in the qualification dungeon. During his trek through the dungeon, he was stabbed by a man named Xavier, who then let him live because Seed would be no competition if he couldn't dodge that attack.
