Chương 56: Duel (2) Conviction

The blade traveled in slow motion as memories of the past swam into Malon's head--like flashes of his childhood.

He was first born in his family and praised at a young age for unlocking and mastering his Ancestral Ability to a great extent in just a matter of a few days.

However, his brother Mano gained his own Ancestral Ability a week later, outshining him in an instant.

Malon was supposed to be the star child, something he didn't even care for.

When that was all taken away from him, he didn't mind it either. But despite this fact, Malon was treated like trash by the nobles of Mycelia.

His mother died early due to an illness. And so, his father always had to protect him. Many days Malon would come home with dozens of scars. These were scars from protecting the average city-folk from the disastrous rule of his brother and his nobles.
