Revenge with the Power of the Final Boss-Chapter 115
The outdoor auditorium of Kangin Academy was filled with countless students.
“Baek Seo-jin.”
A soft, melodic voice called out to him, catching the attention of the students around him. Baek Seo-jin, burning with a sense of justice and resolve to bring down Kim Ho-jun and rescue Seomun Ye-jin, turned toward the speaker.
It was Moriya Yuka.
“That’s right. Yuka and Yu-ra are here too.”
Two female students utterly captivated by him, desperate to become his women. Surely, they would lend him their strength.
“You think Chancellor Kim Ho-jun is the one behind this incident?”
The shocking question Moriya Yuka posed sent ripples of chatter through the crowd.
“As expected!”
Baek Seo-jin assumed Moriya Yuka’s question was her way of supporting him, helping him naturally bring up the topic of Kim Ho-jun.
“What are you talking about?”
“Kim Ho-jun, the mastermind behind the attack?”
As the students buzzed with confusion, Baek Seo-jin saw this as an opportunity. Just as he had challenged Kim Ho-jun during the entrance ceremony, now was the perfect moment to reveal the truth.
“That’s right. Kim Ho-jun is the mastermind behind this attack.”
Coming from the hero who had slain the SSS-class villain Ham Kang-min, his words carried immense weight.
Unlike his entrance ceremony proclamation, Baek Seo-jin now had the reputation of a hero and the eyes of the world on him. The attack on Kangin Academy itself was suspicious enough to make people question what had happened.
“Doesn’t it seem strange that SSS-class villains would band together to attack like this?”
Several students nodded at his observation. His close friends, Kim Chul-woo, Park Sun-hoo, and Bae Ye-rim, chimed in to steer the crowd’s opinion.
“Yeah, it’s weird. Villains suddenly teaming up like that?”
“What could have motivated them to attack Kangin Academy together?”
“Maybe there was an insider who made them believe they could pull it off?”
Those who were in the know understood that the villains were after the five most beautiful women in the academy. But even that reasoning wasn’t enough to justify such a large-scale assault.
“The reason SSS-class villains could unite and launch such a coordinated attack is because the chancellor of Kangin Academy, Kim Ho-jun, is a traitor. He orchestrated everything.”
The global spotlight was on Kangin Academy as Baek Seo-jin boldly revealed the truth.

“Kim Ho-jun! I declare here and now that he is the one who conspired with the SSS-class villains to attack Kangin Academy!”
“It’s done!”
Now, with Choi Kang-in’s support as the heir to the Kangin Guild, Baek Seo-jin was confident that Kim Ho-jun would be ousted and arrested. Seomun Ye-jin would be freed.
Even if Kim Ho-jun resisted and a fight broke out, Seo-jin was certain he could win.
In fact, he almost hoped for it.
“I’ve dreamed of landing at least one solid blow on that bastard.”
He had longed for revenge against the man who had tormented his first love and still-beloved woman, Seomun Ye-jin. He had thought of it countless times.
But just as he was ready to push forward, Moriya Yuka threw another question at him.
“Do you have any proof?”
“The proof will come soon. Choi Kang-in is already taking action.”
Though he didn’t have concrete evidence yet, he was confident it would surface. For reasons he couldn’t quite explain, he was certain of it.
“If Choi Kang-in is involved…”
“Could this be real?”
The possibility of an insider and the credibility of Choi Kang-in’s name swayed the crowd further toward Seo-jin’s side.
As more students began to pay closer attention to him, Moriya Yuka spoke up again.
“Tell me about your brother, Baek Seo-jun. During our first lesson, the blue-haired boy being tortured in that video—wasn’t that your older brother, Baek Seo-jun, being tormented by villains?”
The sudden mention of Baek Seo-jun caught the students off guard. Those who remembered the boy in the video from their first class and knew his identity turned their curious gazes toward Baek Seo-jin, eager to see his reaction.
“That… that’s a tragic story.”
“That’s all you have to say? Don’t you want revenge for your brother being taken? There’s even talk that your parents sold him to So Kang-seok in exchange for your safety.”
“Who said that!”
Baek Seo-jin’s voice erupted with fury.
Who would dare spread such blatant lies?
To paint Baek Seo-jun, that disgraceful wretch, as a victim while slandering his noble parents was unforgivable.
“My parents are kind, patient people who tolerated all of Baek Seo-jun’s despicable behavior! Even when he committed countless atrocities, they never cast him out. And even after he was taken by villains, they grieved for him. They’re good people!”
***
Baek Seo-jin launched into a tirade against Baek Seo-jun.
He ranted about how despicable Baek Seo-jun’s behavior had been, claiming that even by the age of ten, his actions were so appalling they made one’s blood boil.
While he didn’t elaborate on the specific atrocities, he emphasized their severity, portraying Baek Seo-jun as a monstrous figure. At the same time, he praised his parents, repeatedly describing them as kind and virtuous people who had endured Baek Seo-jun’s misdeeds with patience and grace.
“The topic has strayed. Let’s end the discussion about Baek Seo-jun here. The important thing is Kim Ho-jun.”
With that, Baek Seo-jin redirected the conversation back to Kim Ho-jun.
As the crowd continued to focus on Baek Seo-jin, Moriya Yuka quietly slipped away.
“It’s done.”
She had completed her task.
Baek Seo-jin had publicly declared his hatred for Baek Seo-jun, making it clear how much he loathed him. Without realizing that Kim Ho-jun was, in fact, Baek Seo-jun, he continued to spout baseless conspiracy theories about Kim Ho-jun as though they were facts.
What might have been dismissed as mere delusions was now gaining traction, thanks to Baek Seo-jin’s newfound reputation as a hero.
“A lone delusion might have been weak, but now it’s a direct path to ruin.”
Moriya Yuka, aware of the revenge her beloved master Baek Seo-jun had orchestrated, eagerly anticipated what was to come.
Though she had always despised Baek Seo-jin’s arrogance, listening to him slander her husband, Baek Seo-jun, was truly agonizing. In truth, she felt an overwhelming urge to silence him with an icy spear.
But this was all part of Baek Seo-jun’s plan, and so she had to endure it for now.
“It’s all going to start very soon.”
Moriya Yuka looked forward to the unfolding events with great anticipation.
***
"It’s Done!"
Everyone was rallying behind Baek Seo-jin.
He was being revered as a hero, with countless students at the academy supporting his claims.
The thought crossed his mind—why not confront Kim Ho-jun right now?
“Seo-jin, you could defeat Chancellor Kim Ho-jun, right?”
“Of course!”
Baek Seo-jin brimmed with confidence. Even if his victory over Ham Kang-min had been a surprise attack, he believed he could face Kim Ho-jun head-on. Besides, he wasn’t alone in this fight.
“I have my allies, my friends.”
With Seomun Ye-jin on his side, taking down Kim Ho-jun was only a matter of time.
“There’s no need to delay any further.”
Having made up his mind, he decided to act immediately.
“Then I’ll go deal with Kim Ho-jun right now! Ye-jin noona will join me, and with our combined strength, we’ll take him down!”
The students who believed Baek Seo-jin’s claims were ecstatic, cheering him on. Those who remained skeptical stayed silent, watching from the sidelines.
But eventually, everyone would know the truth.
“Everyone! Just wait a little longer! I’ll go confront Kim Ho-jun right now!”
“Waaaah!”
The cheers and encouragement of his friends filled Baek Seo-jin with a euphoric sense of pride.
“You certainly talk a lot.”
The booming voice silenced the crowd in an instant.
Kim Ho-jun had appeared, standing beside Seomun Ye-jin. The sight of the academy’s chancellor accompanied by Ye-jin caused confusion and fear to ripple through the students.
“How easily you’re swayed by such baseless incitement,” Kim Ho-jun remarked coldly.
“Kim Ho-jun! I know all about your crimes! I’ll kill you here, save Ye-jin noona, and make you pay for your sins!”
Baek Seo-jin drew his sword, filled with conviction.
But then Kim Ho-jun’s appearance began to shift. His youthful features transformed into those of a strikingly handsome young man who looked eerily like an older version of Baek Seo-jin himself. However, unlike Seo-jin’s green eyes, the man’s were a piercing, icy red.
“Baek Seo-jun?”
“Could it be?”
The murmurs spread among the crowd as the students began piecing together the truth. The resemblance, the age—it all matched.
“Is he really Baek Seo-jun?”
The revelation sent Baek Seo-jin into a state of confusion. But it didn’t take him long to connect the dots.
“Of course! No wonder you’re so evil and vile beyond comprehension—it was you all along, Baek Seo-jun! You ungrateful bastard, you who scarred our parents’ hearts!”
It all made sense to him now. The heinous acts, the monstrous schemes—they were possible because Kim Ho-jun was actually Baek Seo-jun.
He would now rid the White Tiger Guild of its shame and bring justice to his family by eliminating Baek Seo-jun.
***
“I’m tired of hearing this nonsense.”
Watching Baek Seo-jin’s fiery speech, Baek Seo-jun—the real one—decided it was time to put an end to this charade.
With a simple gesture, he deactivated the conditioning procedure that had been clouding Seo-jin’s mind.
“Huh?”
Baek Seo-jin’s expression, once filled with hostility and righteous indignation, became vacant. He stared at Baek Seo-jun in utter confusion.
The influence of the procedure, which had warped his perception and rationalized his actions, was now completely gone.
In its place, the crushing wave of truth began to flood his mind.
