After he leaves for Higheast, his whereabouts is unknown. Howling Voice Guild brands him as a heretic and deploys his adoptive brother, Rusky Lejon to continue his job and capturing him at the same time.
Jonatan sneaks into L'renouille successfully but is unable to locate the Beast Rune, Instead, in the main hall of where the true rune is supposed to be, he finds a group of floating crystals. At this point of time the Higheast soldiers are aware of his presence and in panic, he destroys one of the crystal, granting him the Blue Beast Rune.
He manages to escape from L'renouille but only finding himself slowly turning into a beast. He decides not to return to Howling Voice Guild but searches for the answer of the mysterious rune he has just bore. He sets south east for Temasek.
