### Summary
The current side story chapter concludes the flashback into Nine Forton's traumatic past, with reader comments confirming the precise roles of his antagonists. It is now clear that Nine's twin brother, Mizen, deliberately lured a human child into their territory, which the original male lead, Jack, used to falsely frame Nine, ultimately leading their father to declare him a traitor and order his mutilation. This revelation has intensified the community's hatred for these characters. Following this grim backstory, the narrative pivots to the highly anticipated origin story of the fan-favorite maid, Yona, sparking widespread excitement among the readership. The chapter also touches on ongoing character dynamics, with readers noting the amusing rivalry between Nine and Yuri for Melissa's attention, while some speculate on a potential romance between Yuri and Yona. Despite happiness for the main couple, a portion of the audience expresses frustration over the lack of physical intimacy, such as a kiss, and the noted absence of their engagement rings. Finally, readers have successfully connected the plot threads, identifying the child from Nine's past as Tom, the brother of another supporting character, Haney.
