Chapter 968: Regret (2)
While Jo Yi-shin was away, Dark Horse and Hwang Ho shared information and discussed the follow-up measures.
Once their conversation was somewhat concluded, Dark Horse spoke about the god of mourning.
"Didn’t the baron fail to pay attention to the benefactor in the entrance exam incident involving the descendants?"
"I did, but I can’t say it was the baron’s agreement."
"However, after that incident, I heard that the benefactor spent time in harsh conditions. If we had rescued the descendants, they would have served in a good place right away."
Dark Horse openly poked at a sensitive issue.
At the time, with the involvement of Kim Shin-rok, who was related to the Woong clan, Hwang Ho's position, and suspicions about Jo Yi-shin, it was not a situation where one could act rashly.
Hwang Ho could only publicly serve Jo Yi-shin as a benefactor after saving Eun-ho’s descendants. It was after that, Hwang Ho bitterly asked.
"It seems you had plenty of time to investigate the students’ backgrounds."
"Hyodon and Yi-shin were in the same class, weren’t they? No matter how busy, it’s only natural to investigate the surroundings to secure the benefactor’s safety."
After this, Hwang Ho was cautious in his speech while dealing with Dark Horse.
It would be welcome if Dark Horse offered something useful for safety in return for that favor, but Hwang Ho didn’t want to focus on it.
