## Chapter

### Summary
The chapter marks a significant tonal shift from the previous cliffhanger's tension to overwhelming comedy, which readers found hilarious. The main source of humor is the confrontation between two newly prominent characters: Melissa's brother, Jake, and the red-haired werewolf antagonist, Jack Photon. The conflict's motivation is revealed not to be heroic, but rather Jake's severe allergy to dogs, which absurdly extends to werewolves, causing him to attack Jack. This ridiculous turn of events has the audience "wheezing" and has generated significant "meme material." Amidst the laughter, readers praised Melissa's gorgeous appearance and the fan-favorite "sadistic" maid, Yona. However, concern for Nine Forton's fate remains a strong undercurrent. Fans are actively questioning his whereabouts and speculating that he and his attacker, Jack, may be brothers due to the shared surname "Photon." Despite the chapter's comedic focus, the audience's anger toward Jack for harming Nine persists, as does their general disdain for the novel's original "trash" male leads.
