### Summary
Reader reception for this chapter is dominated by widespread frustration and disbelief directed at the protagonist, Noa. Following a high-stakes assassination attempt, her decision to nonchalantly open her train compartment door to strangers is the central point of contention, with a flood of comments labeling her as naive, reckless, and "dumb" for her lack of situational awareness. This action facilitates the introduction of a new, handsome blond character, who immediately becomes the chapter's other major focus. Readers are conflicted, simultaneously finding him attractive ("he's hot," "beautiful") while also viewing him with deep suspicion. Speculation about his identity is rampant, with theories suggesting he is a villain, a second male lead, the "minister of magic," or even the original Eleanora's killer. Amid the criticism of Noa, fans call upon the baby dragon, Myu, to act as her protector and attack the suspicious newcomer. While a minority of readers defend Noa's choice, citing cultural politeness or dismissing it as a necessary plot device, the prevailing sentiment is one of exasperation with the protagonist's choices, overshadowed only by the intrigue surrounding the dangerously charming new arrival.
