### Summary
This chapter shifts focus to character-driven comedy and romance, with the most significant development being Prince Kyle adopting the "two block" hairstyle that Geumja (as Joe) had previously mentioned she liked. This gesture is met with overwhelming reader excitement, confirming how deeply smitten he is. The palace's farcical misunderstandings escalate as the maids and servants, acting as "fujoshis," actively gossip about and ship the male characters. However, the humor takes a controversial turn with the spread of a new rumor pairing Joe with Kyle's younger brother, Teo. This development generates significant reader concern and confusion due to Teo being a literal child, with many finding the ship inappropriate. Amidst the central romantic chaos, a minor subplot is introduced involving the long-unrequited affection between side characters Rick and Madam Tilly. The chapter is largely perceived as a "healing" and hilarious installment that prioritizes romantic farce, though it continues to sideline the main political quest for the "obron," echoing previous concerns about the story's pacing.
