### Summary
The chapter's central conflict revolves around the violent and disturbing actions of Hyosin's older brother, Lee, who is overwhelmingly condemned by readers as a "psycho" and "lunatic." The narrative escalates dramatically as Lee shoots an arrow directly at Hyosin's neck, a shocking act that has readers questioning his true intentions. Speculation is rampant: some believe it was a genuine murder attempt, which would have succeeded if not for San's intervention, while others theorize that Lee may have discovered San's half-fairy nature and was sadistically testing his protective abilities. This development seemingly resolves the previous chapter's horror mystery, with readers now concluding that Lee, not San's relative Changha, was the terrifying "dark shape in the woods." A new sense of dread is introduced for Hyosin's friend, Jungoh, who is now in close proximity to the dangerous brother, sparking widespread fear for his safety. Readers have also begun to theorize about the origins of Lee's psychopathy, with one prominent theory suggesting his hatred for Hyosin stems from their mother's death in childbirth, framing his obsession as a twisted quest for power and revenge. Despite the high tension, some readers praise the chapter's art and find solace in spoilers that hint at a future happy ending.
