Jae-in Kwon let a single tear flow down, but no more than that.

She began to speak in a calm voice, just like when we first met.

“Then you should know what Lenna’s foster parents are like.”

I pictured that day, when the rain was pouring down and nodded.

A middle-aged couple had begged for my mercy at the top roof of Eun-kwang-gu’s only skyscraper, the Hwang-myung Tower.

“Their social and personal reputation were perfect. They had a daughter, and their performance as a player wasn’t bad. On top of that, they were Jared Lee’s relatives, so I trusted them.”

I remembered a picture of two very decent people on the Dream auction gate list.

If you look at that photo, it’s hard to think that they’ve got hands on all sorts of horrid things that were linked to the Dream auction.

The voice that appealed to people, imploring some other ways of atonement, really aroused the sympathy of the listener.

Bastards beyond imagination often acted like decent people to deceive the eyes of others.

“Lenna entered Eun-kwang High, and in the photos they sent us, she was always wearing nice clothes. So I didn’t doubt it.”

Anger and sadness rose in Jae-in’s blue eyes for a moment and disappeared.

“But Lenna wasn’t getting any support at all. When she had good clothes on, it was when she was dragged along to places like the Dream auction. Except for the necessary public education, there were no traces of Lenna getting additional education either.”

Then what happened to the 30 billion won that Jae-in Kwon sent?

They were members of the VIP club of the best interests, so it was assumed that they blew it all away by “nightlife” and gambling costs.

“We borrowed the power of the Relics that helped us long ago, and we investigated and interrogated them. I wanted to know why they were so cruel to Lenna.”

Relics that helped us?

I have heard of the Relic Original clan that helped the EverLake team once before.

Jiho Hwang mentioned it to me when he was talking about the time he met Jae-in Kwon and had a conversation with her, that the Relics helped him interrogating the Bear Clan and succeeded in prying out information.

“They had a very deep inferiority complex to Jared. They thought she was Jared’s illegitimate child. They thought Lenna was Jared’s weakness, so he couldn’t do anything about it even if they treated her badly, and wouldn’t have a problem taking money for raising her.”

Jared Lee is a genius who entered one of the world’s top 10 guilds, the ‘Oath of the Three Knights’, at a young age.

Currently, he is treated as a blonde ‘honorary Korean’ who is dedicated to supporting Jae-in Kwon, but the fact that he is an excellent player has not changed.
