Sensing Dustin’s confusion, Glenn explained, “Aunt Alba had a conflict with the family years ago. So, she chose to leave and cut ties.

“After she passed away, my mom and I went to West Lucozia to pay our respects and told your dad who we were. But it seems he didn’t mention it to you.”

“I haven’t been back in ten years,” Dustin said with a complicated expression. The revelation about his mom’s past explained why she hadn’t returned to her home. He decided that once everything was sorted out, he would visit and pay his respects to her as well.

Dustin, taken aback, asked, “What?”

“It looks like a no,” Glenn said casually.

“Well then, let’s find a chance to have a fight. If you lose, the sword is mine. If you win, my sword is yours.”

Dustin was left speechless. The sudden shift from family talk to suggesting a fight was confusing.
