Blood Emperor

🥀 The Frozen Red Palace

홍지수

It seems like only yesterday that I killed your father here.

홍지수

It was my fault for putting you on the throne like that.

홍지수

I'd rather be in that position...

홍지수

It was my calculation mistake.

Thud, thud-

홍지수

Your Majesty, what are you doing here?

윤정한

Since I was going to die anyway,

윤정한

I have appeared before you proudly.

홍지수

Funny, I could still kill you now.

윤정한

...I have something to say.

윤정한

His Majesty has summoned you.

홍지수

...Wonwoo?

윤정한

It's the emperor's order, so shouldn't I go?

홍지수

That's great, you got an invitation.

홍지수

I would have gone anyway even if I hadn't been invited.

윤정한

...

홍지수

I will save you.

홍지수

I really want to end this with my own hands

홍지수

If you go there, you will lose your seat.

홍지수

Because it seems like it would be useless.

. . .

Thud, thud...

홍지수

It's really quiet inside.

홍지수

Did you hide all the people involved?

Jisoo looking around the audience room.

Following that, Wonwoo came in holding a glass full of blood.

전원우

Well, if it looks like that, then it is.

홍지수

...I heard you invited me.

홍지수

What are you planning?

전원우

Your tyrant has abandoned you.

전원우

Probably to say goodbye for the last time.

홍지수

...

홍지수

Killing me means,

홍지수

That it is an act of betrayal to both humans and our species.

홍지수

There's no way you wouldn't know.

전원우

That doesn't matter anymore.

전원우

I wanted to save as many people as possible.

홍지수

Was I among them?

전원우

Then there was.

전원우

There must have been a way to stop all plans and live in peace.

전원우

And that was the only way we could be happy.

전원우

But my brother didn't stop

전원우

I tried my best to break it off somehow.

전원우

As a result, the path to happiness was cut off.

홍지수

Yes, it is difficult to reconnect a broken path.

홍지수

Because it is difficult and takes a long time, you need enough time.

홍지수

We don't have enough time.

Wonwoo swallowed the blood.

전원우

Let's decorate our last.

홍지수

...

Silence fell.

Wonwoo and Jisoo draw their swords.

Aiming at each other, watching each other,

Chaeng-grang-!

The glass in Wonwoo's hand fell to the floor and broke.

Was that the beginning to end it all?

Jisoo and Wonwoo start to fight violently at that sound.

Their voices were no longer heard.

The sound of swords touching swords,

The heavy breathing of two men,

And then there was the unsettling sound coming from outside the palace.

전원우

...what did you do?

홍지수

This is a gift I prepared.

홍지수

Those who follow my will

홍지수

You are destroying the empire you were trying to protect.

전원우

...Hong Ji-soo until the end!!

Chae-Ang-!

홍지수

Haha...there's no way I could die quietly.

홍지수

Even if my life is cut short.

홍지수

Humans are unforgiving.

홍지수

And you too, Cistus!!!

홍지수

I can never forgive you for making me fall to the bottom.

홍지수

So, it should be you who die, not me!!!

visor--!

전원우

When I noticed you were from Olivia.

전원우

Should I have killed him then?

홍지수

Then why did you keep it alive?

홍지수

You're going to kill me like this.

전원우

...

전원우

Because we were family.

Swoosh-

홍지수

...ugh,

홍지수

Because we're family...

홍지수

We used each other until the end

홍지수

Is it even worth bringing that word up?

Jisoo's face was injured by Wonwoo's knife.

I roughly wiped the blood away with my hand and regained my composure.

Run to Wonwoo.

Chae-Ang-!

전원우

...A, Kim Min-gyu.

김민규

I'm a little late, sorry, Your Majesty.

전원우

Why did you come back?

전원우

I hope you don't misunderstand what I'm saying.

김민규

Now I can finally repay your kindness.

김민규

Thank you, Your Majesty, for saving my life.

전원우

...

홍지수

under.

홍지수

2 to 1 is not that great.

김민규

Without even thinking about worrying about that,

김민규

I will finish it.

김민규

Under Hong Ji-soo.

Jisoo falls helplessly to the sword of Min-gyu, the knight commander.

The tip of Min-gyu's sword was pointed at Ji-soo.

김민규

Is there anything else you want to say?

홍지수

...he

홍지수

Kill him.

홍지수

What a mess that would cause,

홍지수

I know.

전원우

...

김민규

You're still so arrogant.

김민규

Did you think your life would last forever, having defiled the divine right and blocked His Majesty's path?

홍지수

Are you trying to say that it was just my mistake?

김민규

If you had stopped,

김민규

This wouldn't have happened today.

And then Min-gyu cuts down Ji-soo in one breath.

at that time.

Wonwoo opens the window and shouts.

전원우

Knight Commander Kim Min-gyu,

전원우

Execute Hong Ji-su, who defiled the divine right!!!
