Episode 341
‘…I don’t understand.’
Hwang Bo-gak muttered softly as he glanced at the Hwang Bo-sega’s warriors preparing for camp.
I started feeling uncomfortable five days ago.
So of the family’s warriors, more specifically mbers of the Cheonwang Dynasty, were showing strangely unnatural appearances.
‘Is it after Hwang Bo-hoon was killed at the hands of the cult leader?’
At first, it was thought that the crew was confused by the death of their leader.
But the more I watched, the more strange sothing seed.
Rather than being sad about the death of his superior, he seed to be worried and afraid.
‘Even when I ask why, they just try to explain it away. ‘I don’t know what he’s hiding.’
As ti passed, the sense of heterogeneity grew.
Ever since Cheonryong suggested ‘taking the rescued boys and girls to the Hwangbo Family House’, they had been showing signs of visibly anxiety, but now whenever they had ti, they were putting their heads together and talking about sothing.
It was as if they were holding a eting to deal with sothing.
‘I couldn’t understand the content because most of the conversation was exchanged via audio.’
The uneasy atmosphere was clearly felt.
Hwang Bo-gak, who was lost in thought with his arms crossed, walked slowly.
Basically, he was the type of person who had to find out if he had any questions to be satisfied.
“Cheonan Inspector General.”
He stopped in front of a large carriage and opened his mouth.
The carriage door opened and Yeon-woon landed on the ground.
“What’s going on?”
“I’d like to talk to you, but would you mind walking for a while?”
“All right.”

Dark night.
As I walked along the deserted hill along Hwangbogak, I tilted my head.
‘It goes far.’
What is the point of taking such a long ti to talk about?
As I was thinking about that, Hwang Bo-gak began to rhy in a low voice.
“Aren’t you hiding sothing from ?”
“What are you saying?”
“Heavenly King Hwang Bo-hun. And so Cheonwangdae mbers who were close to him. “I’m asking you if you knew about them.”
I was montarily speechless.
Did he really know everything?
Although I felt embarrassed, I pretended to be calm and asked back.
“Did they cause so trouble?”
“Are you sure you don’t know?”
My mind beca complicated.
I couldn’t tell if he was just prodding a little bit or if he was testing knowingly.
Hwangbo-gak is the head of the Hwangbo family.
Even if he had known about Hwang Bo-hoon’s misconduct, it would not have been particularly surprising.
‘If you knew but turned a blind eye, that’s a problem.’
Hwang Bo-gak stopped in place and turned to look at .
Eyes filled with so much power that it feels burdenso.
I had no idea how to react here.
For a mont, Hwang Bo-kyung’s face flashed through my mind.
He was concerned about damage to the Hwangbo family and hoped that this matter would be handled quietly.
Therefore, I tried to quietly eliminate Hwang Bo-hoon without informing Hwang Bo-gak of the circumstances.
In conclusion, when Hwang Bo-hoon died at the hands of the Ma cultist, he ended up blowing his nose without using his hands.
‘……wait.’
As I thought about it, a thought suddenly occurred to .
Is there any need to hide it?
If I had been the one who murdered Hwang Bo-hoon, I would have had to arrest him until the end no matter what questions were asked.
But his death was caused by the demonic cult leader, not .
Even if we revealed the facts as they were, our position would not be in trouble.
“Why are you asking that?”
“I thought you knew, but it seems you didn’t.”
“…I’m not sure, but I know there’s a high possibility that Hwang Bo-hoon was involved in human trafficking.”
“What does that an! “Human trafficking!”
The voice suddenly beca louder.
I nodded with a bitter smile.
This makes it clear.
Hwang Bo-gak did not fully understand the circumstances.
He was just trying to get information from by making remarks.
“Didn’t you ask this knowingly?”
“That can’t be possible. I don’t know how on earth you looked at to say that. “I am not the kind of person who would pretend not to know that a family mber is engaging in human trafficking, even though I know it.”
“Then why did you ask that question? “How do you know that I know about the Lord of the Heavenly Kings?”
“There was no such thing as confirmation.”
“then?”
“It was just an old man’s feeling. Sohow, I got the feeling that you would know the context. “From the mont you asked to take the children you rescued to Hwangbo House, the Cheonwangdae mbers started acting strangely.”
“…….”
It was a ridiculous answer.
The sa goes for Hwang Bo-kyung and Hwang Bo-gak.
The sixth sense of the Hwangbo family’s blood relatives could not be ignored.
“Tell in a little more detail. “Is it true that Hwang Bo-hoon was involved in human trafficking?”
“You probably know from first-hand knowledge that Sima Seju was training demons in secret. Where do you think they will get the children to teach martial arts?”
“……no way.”
“That is unlikely. It must have been difficult for the Samase family, which had many enemies around them, to supply children on its own. “I would have had no choice but to pay a high price to buy the children from Hwang Bo-hoon.”
“What about the evidence? “You’re not making disparaging remarks about Hwang Bo-sega in front of without any basis, right?”
“What benefit would I have by making outrageous remarks that trample on the honor of the dead? “And that too in the presence of Lord Taesangga.”
“…….”
“As I said, there is no clear evidence. We just secured various circumstantial evidence. “The decision is up to the Lord of Taesang.”
Although they said it was circumstantial evidence, it was sothing you could only be sure of if you saw it with your own eyes.
Now that Hwang Bo-hoon is dead, it will only be a matter of ti before additional evidence cos out once a full-fledged investigation is conducted.
I shrugged my shoulders and added an afterthought.
“If you visit Elder Hwang Bo-kyung, you will be able to hear the detailed story.”
“Hwang Bo-kyung? “Why does that friend’s na suddenly pop out?”
“He is the one who told the information about the Great Lord of Heaven.”
“…!”
“You can rest assured. “I plan to keep it secret and not announce it to the outside world.”
“Was that the reason why the rescued children were led to the Hwangbo Family rather than the Murim Alliance? “Because the children are from Shandong?”
“That’s right.”
“Damn it. “That guy, Hwang Bo-hoon, was doing sothing like that.”
“Isn’t it too simple to trust what I say?”
“In this situation, there is no reason for you to tell a lie that will quickly be found out.”
Hwang Bo-gak, who had been huffing and puffing for a while, drooped his shoulders and sighed.
A mber of Sega seed shocked by the fact that a talented person who was aiming to beco the next mber of the family had abandoned his humanity to secure funds.
Even if that weren’t the case, he couldn’t help but feel frustrated as he was worried about the future of Sega because he couldn’t find the timber for Sogaju.
“Speaking of speaking, there is one thing I would like to ask of Lord Taesang.”
“What do you want to ask for?”
“Please take care so that the rescued children can safely return to their daily lives.”
“Don’t worry about that part. I was planning on doing that even without your words. Although it was sothing that a few Gasols did on their own, it cannot be said that the family is not responsible. “I intend to give you the maximum compensation possible.”
“I believe it.”
One thing I learned while working hand in hand with Hwang Bo-gak is that he is a person who moves based on his emotions and feelings rather than understanding gain or loss.
In so ways, it could be said that he had a simple personality and that he was not qualified to lead a large martial arts force.
‘Did you say that he handed over the family na to his son relatively early on?’
That’s why I was confident.
At least he won’t break his promise to and abandon the children.
‘It’s a consequential story, though.’
We succeeded in getting Hwang Bo-gak’s confirmation.
That alone would be enough to make it worthwhile to reveal Hwang Bo-hoon’s wrongdoing.
* * *
“Welco.”
“See you, matriarch.”
After a journey of approximately seven days, we arrived at Hwangbo Family House.
The head of the Hwangbo Family family offered a seat with a complex expression on his face.
‘It must be an indescribable feeling.’
I sat across the table with a calm expression and accepted the teacup that Sibi brought .
In a way, it was natural that Hwangbo Se-ju did not greet with a bright face.
The martial arts group that suffered the most damage from this incident was none other than the Hwang Bose family.
Dozens of elite warriors were killed or injured, and Hwang Bo-hun, the Great Lord of Heaven, passed away in vain.
Hwang Bose could not help but feel devastated.
I tried to put a spoonful of effort into a low-risk task, but ended up unexpectedly failing.
‘It would be tempting to hold responsible for requesting support, but the situation is so twisted that I can’t do that.’
[I feel bad saying this, but in fact, the support of the Hwangbaose family is not absolutely necessary.]
Contrary to what the Hwangbaose family confidently said in front of the family, the power of the Simase family was not far behind the allied forces.
Without Hwangbogak and Cheonwangdae, it might have been quite dangerous.
However, the damage that occurred during the occupation of Simase Family was not that great.
Most of the damage occurred when the demonic leader broke in during the chase.
It was none other than Hwang Bo-gak who insisted on splitting the unit into smaller pieces to subdue the Baekgol Demon Emperor.
If we start looking into the culprit that increased the scale of the damage, Hwang Bo-gak’s words and actions will eventually co to the surface.
Therefore, Hwang Boseju could not criticize or hold responsible.
I also had to take into account the fact that I knew what Hwang Bo-hoon had done so far.
“It must have been a lot of hardship.”
“sorry.”
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“An unexpected variable occurred and Hwangbo Family’s warriors beca victims.”
“There is no need to apologize. “Who would have known that the Demon Lord would suddenly appear in the middle of Cheonnajimang?”
“Thank you for saying that.”
“Rather than that, congratulations.”
“yes?”
“Congratulations on being newly admitted to the ranks of kings.”
“What do you an?”
“I guess I didn’t hear it. The world has given you a new nickna. “I chose you as the person to replace King Jie, who lost his throne.”
“…!”
Once a person has been given the nickna of Yongbong (龍鳳), the nickna will not usually change until he or she passes the age of Irip (而立).
In the first place, the nickna of Yongbong was given to Ji-soo later, who had outstanding talent beyond his age.
No matter how great a person’s achievents were and how high a level he or she achieved, it was bound to be difficult to break out of that frawork.
‘but.’
What if the subject has stepped into the realm of absoluteness?
However, it was difficult to tie the current managent expert to the frawork of the late index.
That was probably the reason why my nickna changed.
Didn’t many martial people witness climbing over the wall while fighting the cult leader?
Hwangbo Seju asked, picking up the teacup.
“Aren’t you curious? “What will your new nickna be?”
