Summary[]
With the expectations of his grandfather as well as the knowledge that his rival is watching fuelling his will, Jeon Jugok forces himself to fight on despite the unwinnable odds against Jegal Taek. He flashes back to when his tutor Sin Yunseong who concerned about him entering the G.O.H. Tournament had pointed out that his castings waste too much time and so he should spend more effort on polishing his martial arts first, though Jeon Jugok in his fixation on defeating Park Ilpyo dismissed these opinions. Now just as Jegal Taek gets tired of tormenting Jeon Jugok with non-lethal bites from his megalodon and is about to finish him off, Lee Hyangdan throws knives at Jegal Taek’s face which prompts Judge X to declare her disqualified. In response Jegal Taek impales the attacking maid with a megalodon tooth, then goes on to brutalising her limp body.
As he watches the tournament unfold on screen, Sang Mandeok hears that the 30 Sheep he had assigned to Yamato are all dead, and mutters to Ultio R that a cleanup is in order before summoning for Axley. He turns back to the screen where Han Daewi intrudes onto the ring to stop Jegal Taek, then upon seeing Jeon Jugok cast lightning bolts at Jegal Taek using a magic circle drawn from his own blood, Sang Mandeok tells Ultio R that the day for greeting that person on a bloody altar is drawing near.
Returned to human form as the black aura wavers, Sakura Yui wonders why is she still alive as Hiro declines to kill her despite her commands and Sin Yunseong’s goading. As a Wilhelm who was battered up when shielding Ban Sihyeon from Hiro’s cracking of the Open World comments that they are all crazy, the ranting Sin Yunseong finally collapses from exhaustion. Sakura Yui then notices Hiro’s expression is no longer the lost look but the one he put on during their childhood, before he declares his love for her, causing her to laugh as the past decade of fatigue is released. Recalling Abel saying that he befits the name of "Hero" if his goal in life is to rescue a princess, Hiro vows to stay beside Sakura Yui, who notices that they are on a small beach underneath a cliff face. As she realises that her true wish isn’t death nor salvation but simply being with Hiro, Sakura Yui decides to find Yamato and settle the debt with him. Yun Taesu subsequently shows up to marvel at the beautiful sight, and comments on how Gang Daehyeop had changed them all with his clumsy naiveity that is somehow likeable, then asks the anxious couple if he should kill them while Hiro attacks.
In an interrogation room underneath the Busan Prosecution Office, Baek Yeonwoo literally prods Yamato who is hung up from the ceiling for the password to deactivate the Dream Skulls. Yet Yamato maintains that when Gang Daehyeop forced him right after capture to deactivate the satellite sending the Charyeok signals, he discovered that somebody else had changed the password, giving Gang Daehyeop no choice but to take his notebook computer back to the Shadow headquarters for analysis. Determined not to let Yamato live until the government spares him through some dirty deal, Baek Yeonwoo reminds him how he killed a pregnant woman just to escape before stabbing him. Yet before he can set a suction hose on Yamato, Baek Yeonwoo gets knocked out by Axley who marches in with a group of Nox Sheep to announce that Sang Mandeok had declared Yamato defrocked.
Yamato then passes out but later wakes up in a motel room with the suitcase of money as well as a fake passport and plane ticket to Mexico that Axley had left as a pronouncement of his banishment, and as he furiously tears up the ticket while vowing vengeance on everyone, Sakura Yui who had tracked down his life signs strolls in with Hiro. After hearing what happened to him, Sakura Yui demands the money and the way for her to achieve freedom, so Yamato tells her as he hands over the suitcase that it may be possible for her to remove her Charyeok if she can find the Charyeok User possessing the Key, the details of which should be in his research notes in Japan under the custody of Hajime Ryo. He then suddenly realises who was behind the mysterious usurpation, and begs the Sakura Yui about to set off to save him once more. Sakura Yui thus offers to kill him painlessly, before departing with Hiro upon Yamato’s refusal, leaving him behind with a murderous Yun Taesu.
