152. Ryan's story (2)
"Even with those two twins?" asked Lucius.
"Yes," said Ryan, pausing for a second. "Those brothers are horrible. They'd attack and hit me, treating me like a servant and even making me call them young master and follow them around like a butler. Even after I told my mother about it, she still kept insisting that the true shield hero should never use violence on others."
"Do you truly believe that?" asked Lucius suddenly.
Faced with this sudden question, Ryan didn't know what to say. For a second, he felt like there were a thousand words he wanted to say, but in the end, they all ended up choked in his throat, completely inaudible. Eventually, he just sighed as he spoke, almost in a whisper.
"It… it was my mother's last wish."
Hearing this, Lucius just shook his head.
