Warrior Baek Dong Soo (Musa Baek Dong Soo / 무사 백동수)

I will kill you all.

I will tear off your limbs and head.

I will not let a single one go.

The Defense Minister was arrested less than two hours ago,

how can they just let him go like that?

That is the determination from the state tribunal.

How can you not be sensible?

As long as you tell the truth,

we can do what is needed with the aftermath.

Your Excellency, if you want to cut off my head,

not only you, Your Excellency, but...

Her Majesty will also be implicated.

It seems no talking is possible for you!

Torture him.

Please stop!

Your Excellency,

the Defense Minister has not committed any crime.

What are you trying to say?

The one who dealt with josam was not the Defense Minister,

but me.

Then,

how do you explain the Defense Minister's henchmen on the warship?

Aren't the Defense Minister's henchmen all fourth ranked Seo Yun?

After taking merchant navy personnel from Gyeongsang, the ship was simply on its way to Hanyang.

He has no connection to this matter.

Who are you?

Your parents and children make a total of nine people.

Captain,

can you throw away the lives of your whole family?

You fellow, do you know who I am?

You are...

This is as directed by the Defense Minister.

You fellow, how dare you lie here?

I have not said even a single lie.

So he was deemed not guilty just because of this?

Your Excellency.

That's right.

But that is not all.

Before the interrogation ended, a letter came via the Japanese envoy.

It is a direct briefing from Do Ju.

People in the Japanese Settlement were illegally purchasing Joseon's nasam.

Not only was it secretly transported to Daemado,

but they also produced josam to make money.

This is treachery against Joseon.

It is also a diplomatic disgrace.

To clear up the misunderstanding between the two countries,

Do Ju specifically sent me with the letter.

Please punish these people to bring an end to this matter.

No need to go that far. I just need confirmation of this.

Ministers on the left, pay attention.

Are those the people who made you do it?

That's right.

I understand it.

Listen.

I will set the Defense Minister free, and also...

to remove the misunderstandings,

we shall have a banquet tomorrow. Enjoy it to your heart's content.

I am humbled by the kindness, Your Majesty.

Therefore,

a banquet is set for sul si tomorrow.

The Defense Minister's tactics are really brilliant.

Aren't they, Prince Heir?

You can go back now.

Yes, Your Majesty Grandmother.

What should we do now, Your Majesty?

His wings were broken but he was able to get them back.

We then have to offer our hand.

Aigoo, Defense Minister.

You almost made it like I would never see you again.

What happened now?

Son of a bitch. What, we are outsiders now?

Your Highness Father.

Aren't these people truly dreadful?

To you guys,

I am still the Sky Lord.

Stand down.

What?

The Defense Minister has been acquitted of the charges?

That's right.

He protected his life by handing over his henchman.

So, he has prepared an escape route too.

Do you want to go to the palace immediately?

Although I don't want to see His Excellency Hong's ugly face,

it is better to report to His Majesty.

You should go to the palace too, to carefully appraise the situation.

There will certainly be some indications there.

Yes, I understand.

Someone so highly skilled in martial arts...

How can he be in this little Joseon?

Someone said,

that for five thousand years of history,

more than half of the land that Qing now possesses belonged to Joseon.

And also...

you shouldn't have touched Ga Ok.

Yeo Un, are you there?

Follow me.

This is where I stayed for a lifetime.

For washing my wounds or scrubbing my body,

there is no better place than this.

I feel I should borrow it for a while.

Would that be fine?

As it is, I will have to meet Gwang Taek later.

Are you regretting how things are?

Even though it was handled well, thanks to you,

it has come to the point where...

some money has to be spent to take it to its full conclusion.

Money, you say... You mean you want to kill His Highness the Prince Heir?

If you are willing to do this,

your name will be part of Joseon's history.

I have no interest in Joseon's history.

The power gained from doing that also is of no interest to me.

It seems like your interests are all in that woman.

I understand it.

Much as you may not want it...

there is no way to stop an upheaval.

Right, then what is your thinking?

If I fire directly and come right to the front, and by chance the situation gets bad,

a war between the two countries can result.

Therefore...

This Jeon Heung Mun will do it.

Jeon Heung Mun? Are you the warrior Jeon Heung Mun, from the Hwanghae province?

Yes.

If you are talking about the fighting skills of His Highness Prince Heir's guards,

I think this man's skills are more than sufficient.

Are you there?

Stop!

That would do.

The night air is really fresh.

Yes, Hyeongnim.

Jin Ju, no need to feel bad.

At the time when Miss entrusted you to me,

I had already made a guess.

Father?

My guess is still not Sky Lord... Rather for a long time, it's been Sword Saint.

Aren't you relieved?

What are you saying?

Haven't I told you?

As a father to me,

in this whole world, there is nobody but you, Father.

Hey, you girl.

Compared to being the daughter of a thief,

doesn't it feel better to be the daughter of Joseon's best swordsman?

Father!

He is someone who spent his whole life alone.

Before you lose the chance, tell him what you have to tell.

If people have a bond of destiny,

it cannot all be expected to go like how the minds think.

I am leaving now.

Hwang Jin Ju.

When did you come?

Just now.

Jin Ju.

In front of me,

don't force a fake smile.

Right now, to avoid causing others to worry,

you are keeping to yourself, right?

At least with me, don't be like that.

If you are not fine, then say you are not fine.

If you want to cry, then say you want to cry.

And if you are missing someone, then say you are.

That is fine, too.

If you miss your mother, you have her face to think of.

But I don't even have that.

Wanting to see, wanting to cry...

It is all natural.

So, don't try to suppress it in your heart, alone.

There is no need for that.

It's all right... It's all right...

Captain, why does it feel like the palace is too quiet?

Your Majesty!

The Japanese envoy requests to have a competition on sword skills.

I request your approval.

Japanese sword?

Fine, who's the first to take the challenge?

This subject would like to come forward.

Fine.

What?

Why would that fellow...

This is the banquet arranged by His Majesty.

Do not kick up any ruckus. Stay calm, understand?

The Royal Guard Officer's sword techniques...

don't really measure up in a fight.

Your Majesty.

The Prince Heir's guards' martial arts skills

are among the best in Joseon, I heard.

Your Majesty!

Can it be that Joseon doesn't have any real fighters?

It is better not to go right now.

Where is the Guard Captain Seo Yu Dae?

You summoned me to the palace,Your Majesty?

I will arrange another banquet in two days.

Pass this on to the Sword Saint.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Sword Saint? Joseon's best swordsman, Gim Gwang Taek?

Although he lost an arm 20 years ago,

he is still Joseon's best swordsman.

You will need to be careful here.

In Joseon, he is the only one that can be compared to you.

There is one more person.

Someone by the name of Baek Dong Su.
