Chapter starts off with NK waking up on the floor covered by SH's clothing. SH is sitting beside NK, drunk out of his mind and mumbling to himself in his drunken state. He admits he was jealous of InHun and that NK makes his emotions all crazy. But more importantly, makes a remark about his past and he wonders if it would be easier to "kill them all and then himself".
We've now seen a new side of SH, a new very confused, angry, lonely and emotional side of him. Whatever happened, affected SH extremely deeply. Deep enough to cause suicid*l ideation.
After that SH falls over, and we cut scene to him being in bed with Mr kim and the doctor by his side. SH has fallen very I'll do to a lack of sleep + excessive drug and alcohol use. Mr kim and the doctor leave and tell NK to watch over SH. NK sits by SH's side and thinks about everything that had happened and everything SH had said. He asks SH if he really has feelings for him while wiping his face with a cloth, SH nuzzles his face into NK's hand. And NK pulls back and blushes (one of the first signs of non-sexual romantic interest we've seen NK have towards SH.)
Once again we cut, and this time to Mr. Kim receiving a mysterious letter for SH. Only saying "He's not one to write to my master."
Like everyone else, I'm also guessing SH's father. However SH also has more brothers, this could be introducing one of them. Or maybe some other noble SH has history with.
Either way, this chapter definitely felt like the calm before the storm to me. SH has fallen ill and is unable to protect NK, all of the servants are old and not by any means fighters. Dragging NK away is going to be easy for No name. But the thing is, if no name drags NK away silently, wouldn't everyone just think NK ran away? And would therefore not try to rescue him? NK may end up having only himself to rely on when he inevitably confronts no name.

I also don't think it's the father for sure. SH has received a letter one before from him (when NK was recovering from his illness), that he burnt in the pile of leaves, and the reaction wasn't like this. They wouldn't have acted so dramatically now, if the letter was again from the father. I bet it's another brother or someone else, someone from the government who's also an acquaintance of SH? He said in the past he has no interest in the government post, and it felt to mee as if he has some resentment towards it.
Ah, and yes, the drama is coming...
Loving the progress and development too
When do y'all think he's going to start obsessing over Kyungsoo instead? Lol
dunno man just give it a few chapters and boom
Fingers crossed. Really hope it happens soon ><

Well, that was interesting. Min got beat up by Seungho, Nakyum didn't believe it was possible that SH had feelings for him and SH agreed.
SH threw NK into the arms of one of the remaining nobles and attempted to go through with the group sex, only to be stopped by his own jealousy. After Seungho screamed at them to leave, we get to see that crazy servant talking to no face. Servant didn't want to continue to help no face and demanded at least half of the money he owed him, no face was like "fuck nah son." And killed him.
Things are getting... interesting to say the least. No chapter next week tho, so see y'all in 2 weeks
No chapter next week?????
yeah :(
Did you also observe how goddamn into ot Nakyum was when those 2 guys were touching and kissing him? I was so surprised.
im pretty sure thats because of the drink seungho gave him
I thought it was Seungho's imagination.
there was a part with nakyum having the drink dripping from his mouth and I'm pretty sure it would look different if that part was from his imagination
Also, the dude had him inhale the opium, so being already dizzy, stressed and with alcohol in his system, Nakyum was probably completely out of it
Yeah, I think Nakyum was being honest, as he doesn't believe anyone could love him at this point. He doesn't have anyone and the only person he cherished, crushed him and traumatised him... So long way to go for that boy. Him and Seungho have a lot to work through withing themselves. Can someone give them therapy please
Well, he DID say that this is how he was going to live and that it's what "suits him"
But yeah, I think the alcohol and smoke probably did affect his reaction at least somewhat
I thought these were Seungho's thoughts? He recalled thinking them again in the previous chapter, when he went to fetch Nakyum. But still, that doesn't change the fact that Nakyum let himself indulge in physical aspect completely, that's true
Update tomorrow. Anyone else lowkey scared? (⊙…⊙ )

I...
I have been trying to figure out what tf happened in chap 52 since I read it. To give a summary:
As we all know Seungho had been ignoring Nakyum for a while, the old servant told NK to go see Seungho and not act spoiled. So, NK did. Unfortunately, it wasn't a warm welcome. Master Min (the crazy one who told Jihwa to kill NK) was the one who answered his door, asking NK why he wasn't dead yet. SH appears and kisses crazy guy in front of NK, then slams the door in NK's face.
NK has a "wtf" look on his face and goes back to his room, when he arrives the servant who hates him is tearing up his room. It cuts to SH in his room with his fuck buddies, and they keep asking about NK. SH gets mad and says that if they want the low-born, then fine. They can "enjoy him together". And the chapter ends with SH heading towards the door.
Did NK get raped in this chap? No, but it appears SH is planning on doing so with his buddies. However, my thought is that when he goes to get NK, NK will already have been taken away by the servant. And SH will find an empty torn up bedroom.
Everyone is clearly mad and so am I, NK could very well end up dead because of SH now. Our only real hope is that the assassin or Jiwha have mercy on NK. Or ofc, NK breaks himself free. But, I believe SH realized he was falling for NK last chapter, and this is him lashing out against his own emotions. His actions are going to end up greatly hurting the thing he's starting to care about (which has been a theme throughout this story). Overall, its become rather clear that theres no one on Nakyum's side.
Has the artist and bullies calmed down?
The artist doesn’t have to “calm down”. She has a right to be angry people are stealing from her...
I second this.
I'm not saying that they don't have the right to get angry. It's like piracy has been going on for forever in every platform that is.there is no solution and there is not going to be one ever.same goes with anime movies shows and so on . She's getting hate mails/comments etc so if everyone calms down i think it will lessen the mental trauma they're going through. That's it.
Thank u so much for explaining! And our poor baby Nakyum ┗( T﹏T )┛Don't worry luv, I'll protect u T^T
This comment hits me in the gutter. My heart is torn
I mean the reason people are attacking her is because they got caught pirating her work. It’s up to others not to start shit that upsets the author and they still won’t do it.
We're the only ones on NK's side... ╥﹏╥ Why can't they see how precious he is? Protect him!

Nakyum fell asleep after they had sex, and Seungho panicked and started checking his temperature. When he realized he was ok, SH kissed NK. By the facial expressions SH makes throughout this chapter, it's clear he feels something for NK and is confused by his own emotions/actions.
Jiwha has a nightmare about killing NK, and SH staring at him in anger while holding NK's body. After he wakes up, he yells at a servant and tries to drink out of a bottle that's already empty. One thing has become clear, Jiwha is NOT cut out for being cold-blooded and has never killed anyone. Despite his hatred for NK I think he feels a massive amount of guilt over this already, to the point of drowning it out with alcohol. If he were to succeed in killing NK he'd probably have a breakdown.
SH didn't buy any of NK's bullshit and found out what happened for himself. Thinking that sending Inhun away wasn't enough, SH seems to me like he's considering other ways to get rid of him now. And at the very end, he recalls his own panic over NK's wellbeing and thinks it was strange.
Overall, I really liked this chapter. We got a bunch of information on the situation and it looks like things are gonna start picking up pace. We can probably expect to see the assassin go after NK soon.
SPOILER
To me it seemed like it wasn't his panic that SH found strange but that he kissed NK even though he was unconscious and that he did it so tenderly and affectionately. The only time he'd ever kiss anyone previously was in the act of sex. Not outside of the act (especially after).
It's no wonder he is confused. He's in love but he doesn't recognize the feeling for what it is.
hsjebshsje SH found out that Inhun called NK a whore/prostitute or something?
Most likely. This wasn't specifically mentioned (the exact words weren't used), but it seems that whomever overheard InHun and Nakyum in the library, most likely heard what was beung said.
I don't like this development at allllll, it's clear that what in hun said is really getting to Nakyum. He's not allowed to leave or run away, but the more he stays the more everyone hates him. Poor boy can't win :/
it’s still too early to see a development. I bet the time skip between season 1 and 2 isn’t large which is too early to see a well developed Seungho and Nakyum. I do hope things get better though by the end of season 2.
it would be rushed if there was automatically character develpment, it takes time dw
Ya don't need money to support the author, just go to the free coin zone and play some games. You can slowly get the chapters that way
how does that work? Is it a new feature from the website?
It’s almost a wast just wait for it on here
Guys, I'm pretty sure the fiancee thing is just the rumors about Seungho's love life escalating. Everyone already thought he had a lover since he doesn't sleep around anymore. Its impossible for him to get engaged to Nakyum and there's no way Seungho would get married to a woman
Can anyone tell me if this has a sad ending or nah? Because I started reading and I don't think I can handle a tragedy ;-;
It has a good ending, though it would have been nice if they have more side stories.
