### Summary
Following the violent deaths of her assailants, Reniae is burdened by a profound sense of guilt, despite having acted in self-defense. Readers speculate that this guilt is the primary motivation for her actions in the current chapter, where she discovers and saves a man named Kun during a storm. The prevailing theory is that she seeks redemption, attempting to balance the lives she took by saving another. Her rescue involves mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, a detail some readers found narratively questionable. Kun is introduced as a handsome, dark-skinned man who appears blindfolded at one point, an attribute that has garnered positive reactions. The initial dynamic between the two is tense, with readers noting Reniae's irritable demeanor. Despite it being very early in the story, the audience is already analyzing Kun's role, with some seeing him as a potential primary love interest while others get "second male lead vibes," solidifying the manga's anticipated love triangle. The chapter concludes on what is described as a sad cliffhanger, leaving the characters in a precarious situation.
