ep 8. The truth


It is still the past


창섭 (의사)
hey!


성재
Why are you here again?


창섭 (의사)
Why? Can't it be done?


성재
It's just that they've been visiting a lot lately.


창섭 (의사)
I'm worried this big brother will miss you a lot


성재
what....


성재
Oh! I have something to tell you.


창섭 (의사)
What is it?


성재
You must have heard it, right? That I have a madness. Even the Emperor knows, so you probably heard it too. It is the truth. I am afflicted with madness; I cannot rest easy unless I kill, whether it be a beast or a human. I wonder if it is a mental illness...


창섭 (의사)
Stop it! I know everything.


성재
what?


창섭 (의사)
The time I acted as a stand-in for the former Duke and Duchess. And even before that, being neglected amidst indifference.


성재
......


창섭 (의사)
I always thought it was strange that you weren't crazy.


성재
That’s just like you.


창섭 (의사)
I will take it as a compliment.


성재
Do as you please.

Back to the present


창섭 (의사)
Still, you've gotten much better.


성재
what?


창섭 (의사)
Madness. You're not just killing people anymore, are you?


성재
Yeah. I'm not as anxious as I used to be.


창섭 (의사)
Hey. Even so, if you were to line up the people you killed in your madness back then, they would circle the Emperor's palace twice.


성재
That's right. Tell her to stop by Sojeong's room on her way.


창섭 (의사)
Are you going to boss me around until the very end? Got it.


소정
You said you called me...


성재
Okay. Sit down for now. Let's have a cup of tea.


소정
yes...


성재
Writing, history, etiquette, and the world around you—is there nothing else you want to learn?


소정
That alone is more than enough.


성재
If there is anything you need or want to do, let me know anytime.


소정
Okay...... then just one more...


성재
okay.


소정
I want to learn swordsmanship.


성재
fence?


소정
I'm not a beastman, so my body is very weak, and I have to protect myself.


성재
Okay. Let's get out of here for now.


소정
yes?


성재
You will need a lot of clothes in the future.


소정
Oh... it's actually pretty good...


성재
So, are you saying you're going to practice swordsmanship while wearing that dress?


현식 (집사)
The carriage is ready.


성재
Alright. Let's go.

downtown


소정
Wow


성재
Is this your first time seeing downtown?


소정
yes


성재
Then let's look at the dress first.

Dress shop


은광(드레스샵주인)
Your Excellency, Duke Carlos. What brings you here?


성재
Because I want to have clothes made for the new human.


은광(드레스샵주인)
What kind of clothes do you want?


성재
A dress suitable for the season, a few shirts and pants.


은광(드레스샵주인)
Shirt and pants?


성재
I plan to teach swordsmanship.


은광(드레스샵주인)
Ah, understood. Please come this way.

A little later


은광(드레스샵주인)
It is all done.


성재
Do you like it?


소정
thank you.


성재
Then that's it.

Since then, I bought necessary items from various places, such as decorations, furniture, and accessories.
