All the king's horses

And all the king's man

How many days have passed since I was tied up here?

At that time, I kept falling asleep and waking up.

I was jolted awake by the sound of an explosion.

The warehouse was filled with smoke and I could feel the air inside getting hotter.

At that moment, Seungmin came running from far away.

Are you okay?!

정인

brother...

The moment Seungmin hyung untied my hands and feet

The ground shook like an earthquake, and the ceiling collapsed on me. Seungmin hyung covered me with his body and took the brunt of it.

정인 image

정인

brother!!

정인 image

정인

Hey, wake up!!

Blood was pouring from my brother's head and his entire body was buried under the debris of the building, unable to move.

정인 image

정인

brother!!

I tried my best to pull my brother out of the huge debris, but he didn't answer no matter how much I called him.

There was nothing I could do while still bound.

I became confused by the increasingly thick smoke.

Just before I lost consciousness, I saw soldiers approaching from afar, and when I came to, I was rescued.

창빈

Are you awake?

정인 image

정인

Where is Seungmin hyung?

창빈 image

창빈

I'm getting treatment.

I got up straight away and tried to run to my brother.

창빈 image

창빈

Hey!! You can't get up now!

Just as Changbin said, I couldn't take a few steps before my legs gave out and I fell.

My eyes went completely blank and I couldn't breathe.

Changbin helped me up and laid me back down on the bed.

창빈 image

창빈

What should I do if it suddenly happens!

창빈 image

창빈

And Seungmin hyung is still receiving treatment, so I can't meet him even if I go.

창빈 image

창빈

Lie down quietly.

I lay back down on the bed obediently and Changbin sat down next to me.

정인 image

정인

Who could it be...?

창빈 image

창빈

Haven't you seen the face?

정인 image

정인

I couldn't hear the face or the voice.

정인 image

정인

...your shoulder.

Blood was leaking out of Changbin's shoulder, wetting his smile.

창빈 image

창빈

uh?

정인 image

정인

You go and get treatment.

As Changbin lowered his clothes around his shoulders, I realized that his condition was more serious than I thought.

Changbin's shoulder was wrapped tightly in a bandage, and the bandage was soaked with blood, and blood was seeping through his clothes.

정인 image

정인

‘It must be because you saved me.’

정인 image

정인

Go and get treatment right away.

창빈 image

창빈

I guess so...

Changbin also seemed surprised to see his condition.

I headed to the royal family with Changbin.

The place was still busy with Seungmin's brother's surgery.

The two of us stood there solemnly.

현식 image

현식

Your Majesty, are you here?

The congressman greeted me with a face drenched in sweat.

정인 image

정인

What about Seungmin hyung?

현식 image

현식

First of all, the emergency measures have been completed.

현식 image

현식

Fortunately, the life-threatening period is over and now all you have to do is hold on.

정인 image

정인

thank god...

창빈 image

창빈

Could you please change my bandage?

현식 image

현식

Yes, please come in.

정인 image

정인

Did you get hit by that person directly?

창빈 image

창빈

huh.

창빈 image

창빈

I jumped in for no reason.

정인 image

정인

You... aren't you a pretty good fighter? You even passed the knight exam.

창빈 image

창빈

Yeah. That's why I jumped in too, but that guy is really no ordinary person.

창빈 image

창빈

So, it can appear and disappear like that.

정인 image

정인

‘Everyone was protecting me...’

정인 image

정인

‘Why didn’t you… hurt me?’
