I must be very addicted to this BL. I was dreaming about the end of this story last night and it was a bit sad and empty...
so SH died at the end N was left alone(I don’t know about others) N realize how SH felt about him. Everywhere he goes, he’s thinking about his lord. In my dream, it was in winter and N still wearing the winter coat that SH brought to him which reminds him of SH. N looked so empty and I could feel that he kinda of feeling for his lord too but it’s too late because he’s gone. and then yeah I heard someone say “they will be happy in their ways” at the end of my dream. I hope it would never ever happen!!!! I want them to be happy

Can anyone explain what happened in this chapter? I kinda lost (=・ω・=)

So...the Lord has caught feels for the Painter, and he's starting to realize those feelings might be because of the Painter's behavior when they do it.
If you remember, the Learned Sir near the season 1 finale, tells Nakyum that he's a whore, so Nakyum acts on those words because I think he believes them more than his actual feelings. The Lord knows this and wants to get rid of the Learned Sir bc he's messing with his potential partner.
The other guy, Jihwa has feelings for The Lord, but they aren't reciprocated. So near the season 1 finale, he decides he wants to kill Nakyum. He goes to look for the assassin (idk his name) with a mask and he accepts the job. At the moment, He out on the job, and Jihwa is anxious as he about it.
Apologies big it's long and/or a bit confusing still. Tried my best.

If you remember a couple chapters back, Nakyum had fallen soundfully asleep after he had masturbated to the thought of Seungho. Now when you look at this chapter, Nakyum had come to terms with his feelings in regards to his relationship with Seungho, that they're "two bodies". He falls soundfully asleep again in Seungho's embrace, showing how safe and comfortable he is with Seungho. This scene is also HUGE for Seungho's character development because he immediately checks Nakyum's temperature to make sure he didn't have a fever. He also kisses him, but this time it is not out of lust or force. The kiss is driven by his uncontrollable love for Nakyum. If you look at his facial expression right after he kisses him, you can see that his action even surprised himself. I believe he has come to the realization that he is in fact in love with Nakyum, or he has acknowledged the existence of these feelings.
Now Jihwa's dream is basically there to tell us that he is having MASSIVE anxieties and regrets towards his orders to have Nakyum assassinated. He knows deep down that this is something he really would never do, but he is so far fetched with Seungho that he let his greed and jealousy get the best of him. All we have to do now is wait and see what he chooses to do to fix this mess that he created. Because remember, the masked murderer is already out on his mission! This will not be something that Jihwa can easily stop. It might already be too late to stop.
The next scene is showing how Seungho finally knows the reason as to why Nakyum has been acting strangely (submissive, not firing back). He now has the knowledge that even though he sent Sir Inhun away, it did not fix the problem like he thought it would. "Nakyum is behaving this way because of what (Inhun) said. I thought if I sent him away, out of sight, he'd no longer be a bother". Here, Seungho is referring to how Nakyum has been acting submissive and docile lately. Sir Inhun told Nakyum he was born to be a prostitute, and Nakyum grew to believe those harsh words.... and now Seungho knows about this. We can only imagine how Seungho will react to this, now that we know his true feelings for Nakyum(in love).
The last couple of panels when he says "Yet strangely, he continues to offend", and then it goes to the same expression of realization after Seungho tenderly kissed Nakyum. The next panel shows Seungho's fixated gaze as if he is staring at nothing, lost in his own thoughts. He is realizing how even with Inhun gone, he still has a huge mental effect on Nakyum. The meaning behind inserting the panel of when Seungho had kissed Nakyum is to show that whatever actions he takes past this point towards Inhun will be driven by the force of his love and protection towards Nakyum. He does not want to see his lover in pain anymore, especially pain that was caused by the man who hurt him the most (inhun).
Sorry for making this so long omg. This chapter is just so important, almost like the peak of almost reaching the turning point. I hope this helped you understand better what is going on (●'◡'●)ノ
Anyone feel like there are some missing pages in ch.1?
