Chapter 1616: Hiccups

"You must know the reason we were locked away. We're all stubborn individuals. All we had to do was take the Sapientia name and we would have likely lived grand lives."

The man's eyes sharpened. "Our work is our own. We don't want to work for the sake of others."

"And what do you want to work for then?"

"Obviously for ourselves."

"Is that so? Then why didn't you accept the Sapientia name?"

The man looked at Dyon with an odd expression.

"What?" Dyon smiled. "You don't find your words contradictory? If you really only cared for yourself, what does it matter what your last name is?

"What is the point of a last name? Isn't it to carry on the legacy of your ancestors? Only your first name truly represents yourself and your selfishness. So, the reality is different from what you're saying. You wanted to keep your last names because it meant something to you.
