Chapter 204: Inparang-4
Inside Inparang’s bundle were two books.
One was a secret manual recording the martial arts techniques of the Haenam family and the Haenam sect, while the other was the journal Inparang had kept all this time.
Seon Woo-jin and his group buried Inparang in the ground and immediately checked the journal.
It detailed the reason for the disappearance of In Gye-un, the former head of the Haenam clan, and the events that followed.
The first page of the journal began like this.
– Father has finally passed away.
Before my dying father, I vowed to avenge him.
Yes. I must take revenge.
All those who attacked us.
The Haenam clan, of course, and every family that stood with them.
But the truth is, I’m terrified.
Only four of us survived.
I’m only fifteen years old…
Can we take revenge on all of them?
Is that even possible?
I am so afraid of that. –
Seon Woo-jin sighed as he finished reading the journal.
“So it was indeed the attack by Haenam’s Demon Sword, Jin Taedo, that caused the disappearances of In Gye-woon and the others from the Haenam clan. It was the Haenam clan and other Haenam faction families loyal to Jin Taedo who carried out the assault.”
Then Jeung-chil asked.
“But if they survived, couldn’t they have just returned? Why didn’t Inparang go back to the Haenam faction?”
Seolpung answered, her expression somehow heavy at the question.
“It was probably because they couldn’t tell friend from foe. With so many families participating in the raid, it seems they couldn’t tell who was on their side or who they could trust. Perhaps… they thought the entire Haenam faction was the enemy.”
