### Summary
The ominous development surrounding Arth comes to a brutal head as the cruel Crown Prince, Johannes, publicly slaps him. The chapter delves into Arth's tragic backstory, revealing him to be the abandoned son of a royal concubine, forced by a weak-willed King to wear a blindfold as a symbol of degradation. Readers are incandescent with rage at Johannes's hypocrisy and the royal family's cruelty, showering the tormented Arth with sympathy and comparing his blindfolded appearance to popular characters like Gojo. Amid the outrage, however, some readers express frustration with the story's underdeveloped relationships, questioning the depth of Sasha's connections to both Arth and Rebecca as the plot descends into darker, more painful territory.
