Smearing his reputation is kinda a thing in the past u know. Like this dude would get the reward for telling the location but he would be able to smear his reputation too and makes his image ugly in front of the king.
For some reason I think they tried to make it similar to under the green light plots but the character in this manhwa doesnt have a deep past together, so it doesnt make sense how the blond blindly follow the black haired dude and getting played like a feral cat
raws?
