Know about parents

[Author's Note: Since there won't be a second personality, please disregard the mention of a second personality in the previous chapter.]

Mujin Jin told us that he would be leaving today.

"Teacher, I have something to say," Degun said.

"Then go ahead. Today, I'll answer all of your questions," Mujin Jin said, looking at us.

"Teacher, I have something to show you," I said, pulling out a picture from the system space and handing it to him.

"Do you know the people in this picture, teacher?"

There were three people in the picture: a woman, a man, and a child in the woman's arms. The woman looked ordinary and was dressed simply, but the man was unbelievably muscular— even more so than the teacher, with stronger and larger muscles.

The child's eyes looked exactly like my UI Mode, but that's not the issue. The real problem is the man, whose eyes are also like mine. For him to have those eyes, he must possess UI Mode.

Looking at him, it seems like he can use UI Mode perfectly, and this is something no ordinary person could achieve.

Mujin Jin took the picture.

"Boy, could this be the last remnants of your parents?" he said with a laugh, staring at the picture.

There was a distinct expression on his face, one that's hard to describe.

(Author's note: I have an image of his expression in my head, but I don't know what to call it ¯_(༼ ಥ‿ಥ༽_/¯.)

Mujin Jin looked at the picture and then at me, as if he had found some resemblance.

I had thought he might be a relative, but I didn't imagine that he was actually their child. I thought maybe he was their nephew, but no, he's their son.

"Teacher, you seem to know them," I asked.

"Yes, I know them," Mujin Jin calmly replied.

"Then who are they? Where do they live? And most importantly, why was I in the forest instead of being with them? What are their names?" I asked excitedly.

In my previous life, I didn't have a family. I didn't know the love of parents. But in this life, I have parents. I have a chance to experience their love. Just the thought of it filled me with joy.

"They... or rather, he..." Mujin Jin hesitated, unable to find the words as he looked at my eager expression.

"Boy, they aren't ordinary people," Mujin Jin said, pointing at the picture.

"Oh, then who are they?" I asked curiously.

"Do you remember when I told you about the Zero Generation and the First Generation, and all their names?"

"Yes, I remember," Degun nodded.

"Do you remember Jinyeong Park?"

"Yes, I remember. But what's the issue with him?" I thought to myself, It can't be Daniel's mother. She's married. But she should have a younger sibling, right? And that sibling is missing.

"The woman you see in the picture is Jinyeong Park's older sister. Her name is Seonhui Park. And the man beside her is the leader of the Yamazaki Syndicate, and his name is Yamazaki Shingen."

Hearing this, I felt the ground beneath my feet vanish.

I know Seonhui Park. She's Daniel's mother.

But how is this possible? And my father is the leader of the Yamazaki Syndicate, and his name is Yamazaki Shingen?

In my previous life, I had heard that the father of Gundo was the leader of the Yamazaki Syndicate. So, does that make me their half-brother?

"I told you about them before, especially your father. My friends and I once fought against him."

"Because he wanted to take over our country. But we defeated them and forced them to leave. I only knew that he returned to this country later and married some woman.

However, the Fist Gang forced him to leave the country again. Yamazaki suffered heavy losses in the previous battle, so he had to retreat. After that, there was no news of his wife. But I never imagined that your mother would be Seonhui Park.

And I've never seen a fighter as strong as your father in my entire life. We couldn't defeat him. He only lost because the Yamazaki Syndicate had suffered significant damage. As a leader, he had no choice but to pull back.

I sat there quietly, listening to all of this.

"Teacher, when my father and mother were together, did you help the Fist Gang separate them?" I asked.

"No. I don't like to get involved in people's personal matters. I was with my wife at that time. The one who did it was your uncle and my rival, Gapryong Kim. You could say your uncle was behind it all.

It was your uncle who first proposed separating them. But I refused," Mujin Jin said with a chuckle.

"Teacher, thank you very much for giving me this important information," I said in a cold voice.
