Yeon Ji-young pleaded, "Your Highness, as your grandmother said, your mother would never want you to draw your sword." However, Lee Heon retorted, "Do you wish to die? This is none of your concern," as he proceeded towards the platform with his sword.

Desperately embracing Lee Heon, Yeon Ji-young implored, "Please stop. It does matter because I love you," attempting to calm his fury. Momentarily, Lee Chae-min's character paused, collected his emotions, and lowered his sword.
