Bab 118: Ben's past

"My father was one of the closest men of the second Evanus emperor, Augustus.

His designation was commander of the Virex Black Ops and he carried out the most difficult political assassinations for the emperor" Ben said with a deep sigh, as he began chopping the lion meat they had dry aged and adding it to the cooking pot.

"Back then, I was only a small kid, growing up in the capital with my mother, however, one day, due to some illness my mother passed away and since I was only 7 at the time, my father quit his job and his position and decided to take up the task of raising me, as he brought me here to Mount Faulkner and raised me his own way" Ben said, as he looked at his surroundings nostalgically.

"Everything you have went through, I went through as well, but I wasn't as talented as you, kid, it took me several years to master just one of the techniques he wanted to teach me….." Ben said a small tear forming in his eyes.
