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.


승민
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
brother!!


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
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
Where is Seungmin hyung?


창빈
I'm getting treatment.

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


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
What should I do if it suddenly happens!


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


창빈
Lie down quietly.

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


정인
Who could it be...?


창빈
Haven't you seen the face?


정인
I couldn't hear the face or the voice.


정인
...your shoulder.

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


창빈
uh?


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
‘It must be because you saved me.’


정인
Go and get treatment right away.


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
Your Majesty, are you here?

The congressman greeted me with a face drenched in sweat.


정인
What about Seungmin hyung?


현식
First of all, the emergency measures have been completed.


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


정인
thank god...


창빈
Could you please change my bandage?


현식
Yes, please come in.


정인
Did you get hit by that person directly?


창빈
huh.


창빈
I jumped in for no reason.


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


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


창빈
So, it can appear and disappear like that.


정인
‘Everyone was protecting me...’


정인
‘Why didn’t you… hurt me?’
