A Rival

It all started when Tobalt Cain lost his only son to a monster attack on their village. In his grief, he decided to grow stronger and stronger, barely spending time with his friends and his wife who also couldn't get over the loss of their son. However, she was completely aware that her husband had a different way of grieving and she understood it. That's why she never stopped him no matter how much he overexerted himself. From afar, she silently supported her husband, spending most of her time in the kitchen cooking food for him. And as time passed, Tobalt's efforts weren't in vain. He soon became the strongest man on the continent and no one can beat him both in close and long-range combat. He was simply unstoppable, like a raging torrential wave in the middle of a storm. No matter who challenged him, they'd always end up on the ground like some sort of ragged doll.
