Chapter 809: Promise (9)
As soon as the phrase "time and experience" was mentioned, I realized that in the context of Flama-go, Seong Guk-eon's transformation wasn’t solely due to time, but rather the experiences that had shaped him. And at the core of those experiences was Kim Shin-rok.
Could it be that it was Kim Shin-rok who changed Seong Guk-eon’s way of thinking?
"Haha! You’re acting as if it has nothing to do with you. The Hojok must have had quite a struggle."
"It wasn't without its rewards. Things have improved a lot."
Hwang Ji-ho responded with a tone that seemed almost like an old man’s, which made it clear that the Hojok had been working hard since last year. But why did he phrase it as if it were my fault?
The two of them continued talking without giving me a chance to intervene.
"I know you as Hwang Ji-ho from the same class as Yi-shin, but you must be a Hojok, right?"
"You're probably already guessing, aren’t you? Hwang Yoo-ho and Hwang Myung-ho are both me."
Hwang Ji-ho abruptly declared that he was Hwang Ho, the head of the Hojok, and claimed to possess the abilities of the "Gaechun Myth."
I thought he might reveal this information when Seong Guk-eon and Jeon Moo-young arrived, but I didn't expect him to blurt it out so suddenly.
‘But they don’t seem shocked.’
It looked like Seong Guk-eon and Jeon Moo-young had done some research before arriving. It was no secret that the Hwangmyung Group had connections to the Hojok, and considering their interactions with Hwang Myung-ho and Hwang Yoo-ho, they must have pieced it together.
