### Summary
The anticipated reunion between Eskal and Laranora takes place not at a ball, but during a dramatic public demonstration at an auction house. In a tense moment readers have dubbed the "Kabe-Dyck," Eskal corners Laranora and unleashes his infamous fire magic, which she blocks with a shield from her family's business. The community is highly skeptical of the event's authenticity, questioning how Laranora and the seemingly wooden, "ugly" shield could withstand the flames unscathed. The prevailing theory is that the demonstration is a clever "fraud" orchestrated by the couple. Citing Eskal's previous use of illusion magic, fans believe he is staging the attack to publicly endorse Laranora's product and boost her family's business. This calculated move is seen as the act of a "supporting hubby," using his fearsome reputation to help the woman he loves, rather than a genuine assault. Amidst swooning over Eskal's appearance, the consensus is that the two are once again engaging in a collaborative scheme.
