### Summary
Following a seven-year time skip, the narrative shifts to introduce a new group of characters, likely the White Dragon Merchant Troupe, who are noted for being a rare, non-disputing family in the series' world. The protagonist, Jin Mu-Won, makes his reappearance with a significantly matured and handsome appearance, described by readers as a "glow up." His personality is established as calm and humble, masking the immense power he now wields. A new, humorous character trait is revealed: Mu-Won has a terrible sense of direction, drawing comparisons to other famously lost swordsmen. The central plot is driven by his mission to rescue his caretaker, Hwang-Cheol, whose life is in peril. This quest leads him to encounter the merchant group, who seem to be entangled in their own troubles, with readers speculating about a potential scam involving a charming woman being used as a distraction in a business deal. Mu-Won is positioned to become the pivotal figure in resolving these conflicts and saving his father figure.
