章 460: The Empire's past

The pendant that Roki was pointing at was one that had been gifted by Ray's mother, he had worn it every day since. He thought nothing of it, until now. The fact that Roki noticed it had brought back what his mother had said to him the last time they had met.

She had told him that one day the necklace would come in handy for him, or bring him more trouble depending on how he saw it. Originally, his mother was from the Empire. All these facts, he had only learnt the last time he had seen her. 

"It was a gift from my mother," Ray replied. "She told me it might be helpful one day if I was to get in trouble." 

Roki looked to be deep in thought.

"Maybe that would have been true a while ago, but not now. How much do you know about the current situation of the Empire?" Roki asked.
