### Summary
The narrative has unexpectedly moved beyond its triumphant conclusion into a high-stakes epilogue arc that readers feel is more like a new season than a "side story." Protagonists Hwan and Samwol have willingly entered the "den of rebels" to confront the deposed former king, a decision the audience largely condemns as reckless and foolish, particularly as they left their young son, Shin-chan, behind. The current confrontation has escalated into a dangerous physical conflict, with the couple seemingly outmatched against armed soldiers. In a moment of intense reader satisfaction, Samwol attacked a recurring, despised antagonist by throwing a stone directly into his face. This act of defiance, while celebrated, has only heightened the prevailing atmosphere of stress and anxiety. The audience is frustrated that the couple's hard-won peace has been replaced by another life-threatening ordeal, subverting expectations for a happy resolution and fueling fears that their questionable choices will lead to tragedy.
