Synopsis

The chapter sees a character, seemingly named Steven Marker, revealing he has controlled Leo's subordinates with a potion that only responds to his flute. He then attempts to manipulate Leo by offering an alliance based on their shared inferiority complex towards Lee Geon. Marker reveals his own obsession to make a weapon superior to Lee Geon's and tries to convince Leo to use Lee Geon's sword to defeat him. Leo vehemently refuses and states that he has no interest in dirty tactics and that he has already surpassed Lee Geon, claiming he doesn't feel inferior anymore.
