### Summary
The chapter delivers a seismic plot twist, revealing that Prince Sa Heonyoung has an identical twin brother who is the Crown Prince. This revelation instantly clarifies the long-standing mystery behind Sa Heonyoung's masked "goblin" persona; it was a political necessity to hide the existence of a second heir and secure his brother's claim to the throne. Reader sentiment, previously anxious about a vague, spoiled tragedy, has now found a clear antagonist. The Crown Prince is immediately branded the "real goblin," with readers expressing intense hatred and fear, convinced his "creepy vibes" and "garbage personality" foreshadow a terrible fate for the female lead, Young. The "calm before the storm" has broken, replaced by palpable dread as the community braces for the inevitable drama and conflict the twin's introduction promises. While some readers expressed shock at the reveal, many felt it was an obvious development, but this predictability did little to lessen the terror of what's to come. The focus has decisively shifted from the couple's romance and Young's health to the imminent threat posed by this new, yet familiar, villain.
