Okay that’s surprisingly honest and humble coming from the guy in question. Did he perhaps realize that Abel consistently got exactly 80 on every test (much more suspicious than getting 100s or high 90s actually; he really should have tried to make it look normal or random; something like a 95, a 91, a 84, or just any combination of DIFFERENT scores) and was purposely trying not to stand out, so he abused his power to get this victory over him? I can’t really believe the guy that hired assassins (well, I can’t remember what they were actually hired to do, but “something not nice” doesn’t sound as good) a while back to test him and stalked him with a drone would admit defeat that easily and be that sincerely kind.
