Chapter 264: Namhae Makyeong Manhak Sung-2
Seon Woo-jin felt a slight pang of regret.
He regretted that he should have made sure Jin So-eun could escape beforehand, no matter what it took, while things were unfolding.
Because Jin So-eun, carrying Mya-ran, was deep within the gorge, Seon Woo-jin couldn’t escape either.
‘I was too complacent. I should have prepared more for contingencies… I need to reflect on this. Though it’s useless now.’
Reflecting on the past, Seon Woo-jin watched Man Hak-sung approach him and suddenly asked.
“What do you intend to do now, sir? Without me, you won’t be able to go to Haenam Island, will you?”
At those words, Man Hak-sung paused briefly before speaking harshly.
“Do you think I can’t take Haenam Island just because some nobody like you isn’t there? It would be the same even if Jin Taedo were there instead of you. Besides, now that even that bastard is gone, Haenam Island is nothing. I’ll conquer it in no time.”
It meant the outcome was predetermined, though it might be slightly more troublesome.
But Seon Woo-jin shook his head and retorted.
“I’m afraid you’re mistaken. Your Excellency will never obtain Haenamdo.”
His tone was calm and decisive.
His eyes narrowed at the words, and the old scholar chuckled, asking.
“You can’t get Haenam Island? What do you mean by that? Are you seriously implying it’s because you’re not there?”
Killing the bastard was now as easy as taking something out of one’s pocket.
