So I erase disc, restart the Mac and now I got 0xc0000225 error, and I can’t boot to Recovery Mode or use opt+cmd+R command. What can I do?
It it says I need to press F8 or Enter, but when I press it my screen just flickering for a second.

Thanks for your reply! So what do I is loaded with Arch drive (not installer) and restore SSD. After this Internet recovery start working properly.
About system clean. I broke GIT client for SourceTree and instead of solving the problem I decided to just reinstall the system from scratch. Anyway everything working for now. Thank you Again!
If you cannot access recovery, do you have a bootable clone on an external drive you can boot into? You should then be able to access the drive.
FWIW, the correct way to prepare a Mac for sale is detailed here:
UPD: There is no need to "clean" the OS in general unless there is a specific problem.
UPD2: No.
As for the flash, I do not know. Any external needs a bootable install of your OS on it. You boot from it and then work on your internal from the external.
I assumed you also wanted to sell it since, at some point, you said something like you had the same problem as the other poster.
As for the external bootable clone: I have several external hard drives and at least 2 copies of every OS scattered over them. They are all bootable and the best way to resume working if something goes wrong.
As for that "windows" window, I have never seen anything like it, so this is not my area of expertise and have no clue how/where that is coming from. If you can't work on your internal and the external won't, my suggestion is to contact Apple tech support and/or take it to your nearest Genius Bar for a diagnosis and help.

And another few words. I never use or try to use windows on this Mac. Never install it. Thanks for your attention. Help me.
I have clean usb flash, how can I use it as recovery?
UPD: btw, I’m not trying to sell it, just cleaning the OS.
UPD2: I have a bootable ArchLinux drive, is it usable?
That is a relief!
