Doing this makes you no different from Gwi.

Scholar!

Why are you here?

What is going on?

This...

Crown Prince, get down please!

Let's go.

Just let them be.

Episode 12

Why are you wandering around carelessly?

How come you were with the Crown Prince?

We were going to combine our strengths to fight against Gwi.

However,

I heard the news that even the King and the Crown Prince have submitted to Gwi.

I told him if he still has the will to fight against Gwi,

then come out to the Hwayang-Gak.

But the Crown Prince did not come until the end.

If the Crown Prince has really submitted to Gwi,

I can not forgive him. But,

I believe he isn't that kind of person.

How come you think that way?

Truthfully,

I saw the Highness when I went to the Hwayang-Gak last time.

I saw him looking for someone.

But maybe it's because there's still resentment left in my heart,

I pretended not to know him.

To be honest, there is one more thing I haven't told you about.

This brush case is identical to the one His Highness has.

He said that there was only two of these in the world and

that he was looking for his long lost childhood friend.

I should have asked him earlier but I couldn't.

Since we don't know with what intentions they found this place,

don't go outside for the time being.

Why didn't you save Seo Jin and let the vampire take her?

What are you trying to say?

The child that the vampire took, is Seo Jin.

Are you sure this isn't a mistake? Jin is a boy.

Seo Jeong Do raised his daughter disguised as a boy.

What did you just say?

I heard it was because male child is hard to come by in that family for generations,

but he must have had a reason.

If so... Yang Sun...you are Jin?

I searched the forest carefully but I could not find any traces.

Who was that person?

The vampire that helped The Lustful Student.

Your Highness, do you know that vampire?

When I was Lustful Student trying to fight Gwi, he helped me.

He now has the memorandum and told me to come

find him if I have the will to fight against Gwi.

No way.

He probably killed Seo Jeong Do,

and he must have gotten the memorandum in his hands by using Seo Jin.

No different than Gwi, he is a vampire.

To me it did not seem like that.

He has been helping you continuously this whole time.

When I look at you, I keep thinking of my friend that I lost 10 years ago.

By lost, you mean...?

He left me and ran away.

I left something important of mine with him.

You are staring at me again.

Do I resemble the person you knew that much?

No. Now that I look at you again and again, you don't.

That friend was a boy though...

Is that why he was confused about me?

No, I lived like a man.

Then, was his friend a woman?

I don't know.

I've made many inconveniences to you last time. I apologize.

What respecting the death of the Lustful Student meant,

about how important it was, I didn`t know.

After listening to your words and thinking about it,

I feel frightened.

Rather than wanting for the dead to have comfortable afterlives,

what would happen if I was mistaken as being

involved with the Lustful Student's followers...

Seeing myself worry about something that haven't even happened,

- I feel very ashamed.- No.

Although the Lustful Student's crimes should be punished by heaven,

what fault do the people that followed him have?

There has to be a reason why the people would follow him, right?

They're all like that because the nation is unstable.

If the King had taken good care of this nation,

then those things wouldn't have happened.

To talk about a nation's King like that...

are you not afraid?

They must be assassins that are after me. Chase them!

Yes!

Please save me...father...

Maiden, come to your senses!

As you order...I'll do everything you order me to do...

Please... Please, to mother.

Please save my mother.

Please save her.

Until now, did you watch me?

If the arrow had been embedded any further, your life would have been in danger.

Thankfully the doctor has treated you well so there should be no other problems.

Thank you.

I should be the one thankful.

They seemed to be assassins that were after me

but you threw your own body and blocked the arrow.

But why would he be after you?

Since there are so many enemies everywhere, I have no way of knowing of who it was.

You must have a situation.

You may leave now.

You can't.

I can't watch someone get hurt because of me anymore.

I have to go.

I awaiting marriage so I'm afraid rumors will start.

I've made a mistake.

No.

It's just an unwanted political marriage.

Do you have some sort of situation?

A daughter being sold because of her father's greed for power.

It's not a special reason.

However, there's a big cause to it.

A big cause?

LIke you said, the King has to be stable for the nation to become stable.

I'm willing to help with all my heart if I can be of help to the nation.

Then...

The person I want to marry is the Crown Prince.

I see.

I didn't know you were someone who would become the new Crown Princess.

Since the road is dark, I will send you people to go back with you.

Take care.

Now it seems that our Crown Prince has matured.

We need to pick a good day and quickly hold the marriage.

What about the first night? Are you planning spend the night in the palace?

She's a child too wasteful for you to grope.

How about if I have her that night?

I'm planning to hold a banquet that night. Please attend, Elder.

Really?

I'll think about it.

Those people easily agreeing to a marriage with my daughter is suspicious.

Look here, Prime Minister.

How many Kings I made submit to me while sitting in this position,

You wouldn't not know, would you?

I apologize, Elder. However-

They say a banquet will be happening.

I can't not go.

I, Baek In Ho, give my greetings.

Have you been healthy, Your Majesty?

Chief Baek, how long has this been?

You suffered a lot after being framed as a traitor.

I'm very grateful.

Don't you think the new palace is too modest considering

it is built by the people's blood and sweat?

But that is the hunting ground to catch him.

I will risk my life and capture him, Your Majesty.

I have carefully prepared everything for the hunt, so I will trust you only?

So the one who took out the Lustful Student's

daughter who became a slave is Kim Sung Yeol?

I-I really only knew him as a merchant who goes back and forth from Qing.

According to Defense Minister, he often visits Hwayang-Gak.

Also, I know that is a place where the Crown Prince

frequently visited while he lived outside the palace.

I sent someone to tail the Crown Prince in case he

would meet Kim Sung Yeol there and plot treason.

But he was killed by someone.

Then, Kim Sung Yeol has Crown Prince Junghyun's Memorandum?

Before Jo Saeng died, saying that he gave it to someone...

is concerning me?

Hyunzo and the Crown Prince are acting as if they are submitting to you,

and then looking for a chance to harm you with the memorandum in their hands.

Are you going to stay still?

What do you think, Defense Minister?

I think so too.

Kim Sung Yeol often goes to Hwayang-Gak.

Have you been healthy?

I occasionally hear news about you through the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince is getting married now, so how about coming back to the palace?

I'm sorry to say but I don't think it's time yet.

Then before he marries,

teach the Crown Prince's wife to be the rules of the palace.

I will do so.

Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is here.

This is my daughter.

Greet him.

I am the Prime Minister's daughter, Choi Hye Ryeong.

Have you seen her before?

I've met her a few times at the temple when I went to see mother.

She is the Prime Minister's daughter. Perhaps, were there any suspicious things?

I've been helped by her before.

She's totally different from her Father.

Don't let your guard down.

You cannot forget that something big is ahead of us.

What are you doing there?

The Crown Prince seems to know Yang Sun when she was Seo Jin.

Because of what happened at that time, Yang Sun lost her memories so she doesn't know.

Then, is Baek In Ho framing you to the Crown Prince?

He thinks I am Gwi who killed Seo Jeong Do.

Also, he must think that I kidnapped that child and brought her here.

If there is a misunderstanding, you can just resolve it.

At that time, Seo Jeong Do had already been bitten by Gwi.

Then, the problem with Seo Jin would be resolved too.

But if that happens...

Are you afraid that Yang Sun might find out your identity?

Those two, what's their relationship to have late night conversation?

They're inseparable.

A man a woman...this late at night...in a same room...!

Will they only have conversation?

Aye. It's a joke.

I'm joking.

Ever since Soo Hyang was saved by him.

It's not the relationship that you're thinking of.

Understand?

Then...

What are you curious about again?

The scholar.

He's a bit strange.

Maybe, I'm wrong. But he seems very fast and really strong.

He caught a flying arrow with his bare hand.

Are other men with the martial training like that too?

I heard if you learn for about 3 years then you could be like that.

That's not all.

Sometimes, his eyes goes like this.

It suddenly changes like that as if he's someone else.

There's so many strange things about him.

W-what? I don't think he's strange at all!

No, I'm just thinking maybe he's the

Night Scholar.

No, right?

T-that..you've read too many novels!

What are you doing here?

No.

Are you spying on me?

No.

What? Do you have something to tell me?

That... Um...

There's so much I don't know about you.

What is it about me that you're curious about?

Oh, well...

Scholar, do you have a family?

They died

for a reason I don't want to tell.

It was a long time ago.

Didn't you have a lover?

Yes, I did.

However, she left this world because of me.

That was also the past.

-It must've been very painful.-Until the moment of my death,

I thought it would be that way forever.

However, a person's heart

can change after time.

Now, I know.

I won't be like that.

My heart will never change.

How long has it been since I brought you here?

10 years.

Finally, you're becoming the queen that you've dreamed of.

Are you happy?

The only reason I brought you here is because of

Kim Sung Yeol.

You haven't forgotten, have you?

I asked a person to find out.

He's really good at hiding himself.

Is that so?

Then perhaps,

Have you heard of the place called Hwayang-Gak?

I know it's a place a noble maiden like me shouldn't enter.

There's a rumor that he goes there often.

You didn't know?

Yes, I didn't know. I'll have a person find out.

Good.

You'll become the queen soon.

I can't have you do something so tedious.

What am I to you, sir?

I...

Soo Hyang, are you there?

Subtitles ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by The Hot Bloodsuckers Team @Viki

Are you all right?

Do you know me?

I'm sorry, sir. You were too beautiful

I fell into your beauty without knowing.

Is that right...

then why do I feel like you know me?

No way.

This is my first time meeting you.-No

The look in your eyes just now, you definitely knew me.

What are you doing?

He's a special customer, escort him in.-Yes, sir.

Please come in.

You must like this woman.

She's a child who is like my hands and feet so you can talk any time.

Do you know him?

I've seen him a couple times here.

Kim Sung Yeol, really came here, huh?

Yes.

He visits this place sometimes.

But he never takes any drinks from us and leaves after resting a bit.

Why are you looking for this man?

There's no need for you to know that.

Bring Kim Sung Yeol in front of me right now.

I'm sorry but I only found out about this person's name today.

Since he comes and goes without notice,

I don't know when he'll ever come back.

However, if I ever see him again

I'll send a word to the Prime Minister right away.

Let's do so.

No matter what it takes,

I'll bring Kim Sung Yeol in front of you.

Soo Hyang, you should keep this.

Tell your underlings when they see this person,

to hold him.

Of course.

I'm different from Gwi!

-How can I believe that? -Gwi is...

-my enemy too.-Then,

after you get rid of him?

I will end this beast-like life,

on my own.

What if your mind changes?

Won't you want to live above ruling the weak humans?

My Lord.

Gwi is at Hwayang-Gak!

Is that true?

Yes, he asked about you if you are visiting there often.

Soo Hyang said she evaded him for now.

Gwi is getting closer.

We need to check the King's will as soon as possible.

Stop.

Crown Prince.

Weren't you about choke me to death before, so

why are you be polite to me now?

I'm very sorry, but

that image and this image right now, are both me.

However, the original image I wanted was serving the King.

And serving for the nation's safety,

as the Crown Prince's friend.

Living my like that, and die when the time came.

How did you become a vampire?

It wasn't my own choice.

It was the only method in order to battle against Gwi.

If that's so, then what about the dead Doctor Seo Jeong Do...

Seo Jin, that child... what happened?

There is somewhere you must go with me.

Did you really kill Doctor Seo Jeong Do?

If I answer no, would you believe me?

That's right. I killed him.

However, it was after he had already been bitten by Gwi and changed into a vampire.

He couldn't recognize his one and only bloodline,

and trying to make her his prey. I had no choice but to kill him.

Seo Jin... I had to save that child.

Are you saying you saved Jin?

Yes.

Do you still not believe me?

Do you only see me as a vampire who is the same as Gwi?

There isn't much time.

If you don't believe me, then stab me with this dagger right here, right now.

You need the secret plan to get rid of Gwi,

but you can kill me if you stab me in the heart with this Chinese Hawthorn dagger.

The new palace where my marriage will be held

will become the hunting ground for Gwi.

You cannot. Without the secret plan, battling Gwi right now is suicide.

We know it is dangerous.

The Crown Prince has also thought of

acting in accordance to the secret plan once it is in our hands.

However, the King's will is firm.

Your Highness, may I meet with the King?

Sung Yeol, what I want to say is... I want to make a world where people are the hope.

Would you join me?

You told me that when I was nine years old.

Not for the scholars, for the wealth, nor for the fame...

Making a world where people are the hope... those words haven't left my head.

I was just happy reading

and gaining knowledge.

It was the moment of reason for me to expand my horizon

and gain more knowledge to understand this world.

What's the occasion for you to be wearing the official uniform?

I will enter the palace and meet the King.

Can't this be done with your ability?

If you put your heart to it, you can see him easily.

That is a vampire's method.

If I want to receive the King's trust,

I'll have to meet him as a human and as his subject.

Subtitles ripped by bozxphd Subtitles by The Hot Bloodsuckers Team @Viki

I am Kim Sung Yeol who used work at Hongmoonkwan.

120 years ago, I am someone who escorted Crown Prince Junghyun.

So you are the vampire that the Crown Prince has talked about.

120 years ago, while helping Crown Prince Junghyun who was battling Gwi,

I was bitten by the guardian gwi and became a vampire.

Also, after, for a long time,

I searched for the Crown Prince Junghyun's memorandum

that has the secret plans written to get rid of Gwi.

I heard from the Crown Prince that you found the memorandum.

What is the secret plan that will get rid of Gwi?

The secret plan to get rid of Gwi is written inside of this.

What is the content?

Crown Prince Junghyun's Memorandum.

There are three secret plans in total.

The first, is the Royal's will.

The King who was greedy for power was the one who called Gwi in.

Chasing him out also cannot be done without the King's will.

If the King kneels to him, then the people will kneel to him as well.

If that happens...

The world will become Gwi's.

So the King's will to go against Gwi is the main source of all fights?

Yes.

Second, it's the guardian gwi.

As the one and only vampire that can battle against Gwi,

I cannot harm a human because I have the heart of a human.

It is the role to protect the secret plan.

So that's you?

Then, those two are already fulfilled.

Yes. That's right.

Lastly, it's the mother's side.

As for the bloodline, I've been searching for a woman,

Using the 6 names as the base, I have been

searching for the secret of the mother's side.

However, I still haven't found a clue.

If you help me with this,

I will be able to find out the connection on the mother's side more quickly.

[MOTHER'S RELATION, ROYAL'S WILL, GUARDIAN GWI]

But let's say you did find that woman,

what can a woman's body do?

That...

I don't know yet.

However, it is certain that without the secret

plan, it is impossible to get rid of Gwi.

So...

I ask that you push back your plan for hunting right now.

I've heard and understood what you've had to say.

However-

Your Majesty, how-

This is only a piece of paper.

Crown Prince Junghyun, and Crown Prince Sadong as well...

they both faced a pitiful death trusting in this memorandum.

The Crown Prince as well, I can't let him face a pitiful death

while searching for that answer.

Since you are an immortal,

you can search for that answer until you find it.

However, the citizens that have received pain all this time,

the Kings that has to look over them are human.

We have not been given a lot of time.

I will end this fight in my generation.

What will you do? Will you do it with me?

You will lose many things.

I know. That's why I am asking if you will join me.

If you really think of yourself as a human and not a vampire,

if you are really a loyal subject to this nation,

listen to my command.

I will do as you command, Your Majesty.

Did you hear about the concrete plan?

Yes, I heard.

I will hide myself so Gwi will be assured and

then show myself after the hunt has started.

Then I will tell this news to Chief Baek.

Jin...

How is Yang Sun?

Does she know she is Seo Jin?

Her memories have not returned yet.

She lost her memories ten years ago.

So that's why she couldn't recognize me.

That child...

do you love her?

That child too...

However, once that child finds her memories and

knows about everything, it will be different.

I am the vampire that killed that child's father.

It was a choice to save her.

Even if she finds her memories, her resentment towards

you won't be as great as the resentment she has for me.

Do you really think that?

You said this before.

That if you get rid of Gwi, you will end your beast-like life yourself.

That thought has not changed even now.

Don't do that.

If we succeed and you survive...

please make that child happy.

Look here, Prime Minister.

How boring it is to live in this place,

you wouldn't know.

Are you really thinking of attending the banquet?

Since I received an invitation, I should go.

It's an event to congratulate the Crown Prince's marriage,

so going empty-handed isn't proper etiquette.

I sent people out in all directions trying to find

the family roots but still found nothing yet.

Gwi may have already gotten rid of all of the mother's relations.

Ho Jin, you try to find them until the end.

I understand.

Are you planning to attend the hunt?

I'm going to serve my duty as a loyal subject.

Please don't go.

I'm sorry.

I haven't done anything for you.

I will do it with you.

You can't do that.

-Are you worrying about me?- Soo Hyang.-

I will decide my place of death.

Even if I can't have your heart...

please let me die by your side.

You cannot do that.

My Lord.

If anything wrong happens to me...

take good care of Yang Sun.

Scholar.

How come you're here so late at night?

Since there are so many ancient books, I'm just handling them.

You're going to need a lot of hands if you want to handle all of these books.

That's what I'm saying.

On that note, did you read all of these books?

I feel like it would take a hundred years to read all of them.

I'm also going to read each and every one of these

books that you read, without missing a single one.

Then, are you saying you're going to remain here until then?

Yang Sun.

Perhaps, do you have something to tell me?

She still seems to be sleeping. Should I wake her up?

Just let her be.

Soo Hyang said she won't see you off.

I got it.

If I don't return before the sun rises-

My Lord.

Tell Yang Sun everything. And help her with

whatever she wants in order to leave and survive.

My Lord...

Thank you for always only being on my side.

Should I call Baek In Ho, Your Majesty?

Yes.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Kim Sung Yeol has showed me Crown Prince Junghyun's memorandum before.

The secret plans to get rid of Gwi were written in it.

However, one of the clues of mother's relation has not been decoded yet.

So I secretly sent a person to the Investigation Bureau

and had them look through all the family registries.

But, I just received news that they found an answer.

-Then...- What do you think is best for us to do?

Should we put back our already open sword and wait for the right

time or should we strike since we already took out our sword?

There aren't many chances to drag Gwi out to the

battlefield without him suspecting anything.

Everyone has now finished preparations. We cannot lose this chance, Your Majesty.

Continue the hunt as planned.

All the officials should go away. Quickly!

Let's go.

It's just about to get exciting.

How can you send them off already?

Is your etiquette to the guest who made efforts to come only this much?

There's no one who even pours me a drink.

I...

want to receive a glass of wine poured by the new Crown Princess.

Can't I?

Stay put.

May I pour a glass for you?

Alright. You pour a glass for me.

The start of the hunt

will be when he drinks the drink poured by the gisaeng.

Fire!

Your Majesty. We must escape.

It's been a long time...

It'll become a very exciting night.

The banquet still has a long way to go. Where

are you going in such a rush, Your Majesty?

Capture them.

Escape, your Majesty.

Why are you so late? Kim Sung Yeol.

Even knowing that if we meet again, you'll die...

You showed up courageously.

But how's the secret plan you've been trying so hard to find?

Look here. Are you okay? Snap out of it!

Yoon.

Yes, Your Majesty.

It seems like I'll have to leave you alone and go.

I'm sorry.

What does that mean?

I planned all of this by myself.

Go and convey that to Gwi.

How am I supposed to live alone?

Live.

You must survive no matter what and get rid of Gwi.

There isn't any remaining method. How could you tell me to battle Gwi?

There is still one remaining method.

Written under Crown Prince Junghyun's memorandum,

out of the three secret plans, one is maternal.

That secret plan... is Seo Jin, that child.

The names that were left in the memorandum.

The only survivor left on the mother's side

was none other than Seo Jin.

Is that the truth?- Yes.

Although there's no way of knowing what that bloodline is,

It will probably kill Gwi.

How can that weak child kill Gwi?

She will have to sacrifice herself.

If my thoughts are correct, I think the moment Gwi sucks that child's blood,

he will die.

So use whatever method you can

get that child in your hands and serve her to Gwi.

How come you're like that?

Are you waiting for Scholar?

He won't be coming.

Where... He must have gone somewhere far.

Very...

He went very far away.

He won't...

be coming back.

That... what are you talking about?

Quickly tell me.

Over here.

Are you a bit conscious now?

Secret...

It would be good for you to save your words right now.

The secret plan...

is Seo Jin, that child.

♫ Even if you're a bit far ♫
