‘That would explain everything.’

If Baek Seo-jun was indeed the true identity of Kim Ho-jun, then everything began to make sense.

His appointment as the academy's headmaster this year could also be linked to his plans for revenge as Baek Seo-jun.

This was the year Baek Seo-jin had enrolled in the academy. Perhaps Kim Ho-jun's ultimate goal was to ruin Baek Seo-jin and, further, to destroy the Baekho Guild as part of his vengeance.@@novelbin@@

Even from Baek Seo-jin’s current demeanor, it was clear that Baek Seo-jun's revenge was justified.

Although she didn’t know exactly what kind of treatment Baek Seo-jun had endured in the past, the video from this morning had shown a 10-year-old child subjected to unspeakable torment at the hands of villains. Despite this, Baek Seo-jin had shown no sympathy whatsoever, looking at his older brother as if he were some heinous criminal.

And yet, Baek Seo-jin had willingly accepted a procedure to alter his own memories, avoiding any recollection of his older brother and instead deluding himself with endless fantasies.

From that alone, Moriya Yuka deduced that the likelihood of Baek Seo-jun having committed some grievous crime was extremely low. If he had, Baek Seo-jin wouldn’t have needed to manipulate his own memories to justify his actions.

This implied that there had been events in the past so horrific that Baek Seo-jin couldn’t rationalize them without distorting his memories.

Though she didn’t know all the details, Moriya Yuka strongly suspected that Baek Seo-jun had been the victim in all of this.

She didn’t have concrete evidence, but Baek Seo-jin’s behavior offered plenty of clues. The rest, she simply trusted her instincts.

Whether her suspicions were correct or not, she felt certain that she wouldn’t have to wait long to find out.
