### Summary
Following their shockingly fast-paced intimate encounter, Emperor Garyun is in a foul mood after the mysterious woman he knows as "Yeon" vanishes overnight. This development has kicked off what readers anticipate will be an obsessive "chasing arc," fueled by the dramatic irony that Garyun will likely order his most trusted general—Lokheun herself—to find the very woman she is secretly pretending to be. Readers are debating why the emperor cannot recognize her, with some pointing to a "face qi swap" technique that magically alters Lokheun's features from her feminine "Yeon" persona to her boyish, sharp-featured general guise. The recent revelation that this was also Garyun's first time adds an unexpected layer of vulnerability to his frustrated search, subverting his perceived playboy persona. Fan speculation now focuses on how the truth will emerge, with theories suggesting a mark left by an evil spirit will serve as a "Cinderella shoe." The community eagerly awaits the disastrous moment of discovery, when Garyun realizes the woman he fell for is the same subordinate he has pushed through hellish training.
