### Summary
The escalating tension from the previous chapter erupts into a full-blown confrontation. The antagonist, now identified as Hyunjae, deliberately provokes Taehwan with an incredibly offensive and audacious verbal attack, seemingly directed at or about Yeonwu. The comment section is a unified chorus of outrage, with readers expressing extreme anger and demanding a violent physical retaliation from Taehwan. Hyunjae is universally condemned as a malicious instigator who is "playing with fire" and deserves to be punched. The chapter appears to end on a tense cliffhanger, capturing the moment just before Taehwan snaps, with readers speculating he is about to "commit murder" or "beat his ass." This climactic moment validates Taehwan's severe anxiety from the previous chapter, proving his fears were not irrational. Yeonwu is also noted to have a "serious" reaction, suggesting he is not a passive victim in the escalating conflict.
