### Summary
Reeling from the whiplash of Priest Theo's bafflingly anticlimactic defeat, readers are now confronted with an even more jarring narrative swerve. The unsatisfying and rushed conclusion to the wedding attack—where Mikhail dispatched the villain with a single stab followed by an unearned, instantaneous change of heart—has been immediately overshadowed by a shocking new development. The latest chapter appears to have transported Dayeon back to her original world, leaving her and the audience in a state of utter confusion. The comments section has erupted with panicked speculation, with fans questioning if she has been "re-isekai'd," is trapped in a coma-induced dream, or is experiencing a vision to help her let go of past regrets. This twist, coming so close to the series finale, is widely perceived as "cheap drama," compounding the frustration from the poorly paced fight. After finally finding agency, healing from her depression, and cementing her equal partnership with Mikhail, Dayeon is now seemingly back in the life that caused her initial burnout. Readers are left feeling emotionally damaged and betrayed, wondering if this is a meaningful final step in her journey or a cruel, last-minute contrivance that undermines all her hard-won happiness.
