-=Episode 24=-

The weather is fine.

Drink up.

Are you ready?

Are you alright?

Do you want to rest for a while?

It's all right.

Let's get out for some fresh air.

Abort.

Gwang Taek, you...

Because of you, my life turned out so colorful.

Thank you.

I am also grateful to you.

Shoot!

Gwang... Gwang... Gwang Taek, you fellow.

Do you think I'll be happy with you like this?

For Ga Ok's sake,

haven't you given up everything?

But I've never done that.

For the woman so dear to my heart,

not once could I throw away everything I had.

Shut up, you brat.

Speak no more.

Now I can finally be at ease and be with Ga Ok.

You...

You wish so much to die like this?

I want you to return...

Return to the way you were before.

Ga Ok... Ga Ok.

I really want to see her.

You'll be able to see her soon.

Master.

Ma... Master, Master.

Dong Su.

Don't you see me?

Master, don't say anything.

Don't say anymore, Master.

Aren't seeing me, I asked!

Yes.

Surpass me.

Dong Su, you are the one to surpass me.

Not only as Joseon's best swordsman,

but also as the world's best swordsman.

Master... Master.

Father!

Father!

Father...

Jin Ju... Jin Ju...

I'm sorry, Jin ju...

I love you... my... my daughter.

Father...

Master...

Father!

Father!

Master...

Father...

Father...

Father...

Master!

Didn't I tell you to withdraw the archers?

When I got there, it was already too late.

Did the Sky Lord see your face?

He wouldn't have seen.

But, the Human Lord saw.

What can I do for you, Sky Lord?

Who was it?

I'm asking who did it.

That matter was my doing.

It was me.

It was my doing.

It was banwi.

-=Banwi: Stomach cancer=- . It was banwi.

What did you say just now?

It wasn't that I wasn't willing to kill the Sword Saint...

But once I learned the fact that he had banwi,

I had immediately ordered the archers to withdraw.

No... it's not so.

No one can lie to me.

Because of our previous friendship, I will spare his life this time around.

In the future it will be like we don't know each other.

It will be better that way.

Call in the doctor.

Yes.

Father...

I should have called you Father earlier.

I didn't have the courage.

I was afraid it would shock you.

I didn't know what to say either.

I am sorry.

I'm sorry, Father.

Jin Ju.

Will you be all right?

I'm sorry, Father.

How can a man get scared from such a thing?

If you get injured a little,

pay it back more strongly next time.

Betray me? He will make me kill him?

Go look for that half-assed former Human Lord.

He will be of help in killing the Sky Lord.

But, Your Excellency, where do I start looking for him?

Do I need to shove the answer down your throat?

Since he hates the Sword Saint that much,

even on the dead body, he will give a couple of kicks.

Go there and keep an eye out.

Yes.

Dong Su. Come here for a moment.

There is something you have to see.

If I should die fighting with the Sky Lord,

you have to show Dong Su my scars.

Ah! Really...

Hyeongnim, how can you say such things! Don't say such things!

Remember what I say, Sa Mo.

Take a good look.

You want me to take a look at the Master's scars now?

I can't do that.

How can I touch Master's remains?

Those were Hyeongnim's last words.

You need to see it.

Hurry.

I can't. I absolutely can't do that.

Dong Su. Don't you see me?

Master, don't say anymore.

Don't say anymore, Master.

I am asking if you aren't seeing me.

Surpass me. Dong Su,

you are the person who has to surpass me.

Not only as Joseon's best swordsman,

but also the world's best swordsman.

Master, please forgive me.

Sword Saint's funeral has to go well. Get it done without problems.

-=Yeong Ju=- . Sword Saint's funeral has to go well. Get it done without problems.

Sword Saint's funeral has to go well. Get it done without problems.

-=Yi San (the future King Jeongju)=- . Sword Saint's funeral has to go well. Get it done without problems.

-=Yi San (the future King Jeongju)=- .

Yes, Your Majesty Grandfather. -=Yi San (the future King Jeongju)=- .

Yes, Your Majesty Grandfather.

-=Queen Jeong Sun=-

An great man has passed on. Look after everything flawlessly.

Yes, Your Highness.

It seems the Sword Saint is dead.

I've heard about it. How did he die?

He died in a duel.

Anyways,

he left behind that disciple, Baek Dong Su.

Though he is dead, perhaps he won't have regrets.

Defense Minister, the Sword Saint who was always hindering you is now dead.

Why do you still look so unhappy?

-=Gim Han Gu: Queen Jeong Sun's father=- . The Master may be dead,

-=Gim Han Gu: Queen Jeong Sun's father=- .

but doesn't the disciple remain? -=Gim Han Gu: Queen Jeong Sun's father=- .

but doesn't the disciple remain?

The youngster called Baek Dong Su, you mean?

That child Baek Dong Su is full of vigor. His reputation is also preceding him.

The Sword Saint is dead?

Joseon's best warrior?

Is that really true?

The warriors have all heard and gone there. You can hardly see an end to the line.

Oh, it must be true, then.

- Let's go look, too. - All right!

The Sword Saint has gone? Sword Saint...

He should have been sent off by my hands. Farewell, Sword saint.

He's dead! Ha...

You're saying we should kill the Sky Lord now?

-=Jegal Gong Myeong: A famous Chinese strategist=- . . Aren't you as insightful as Jegal Gong Myeong?

As you might have a good strategy, shouldn't we discuss it together?

Come on, please tell us.

I truly wish to be rid of him.

The Sky Lord has an illegitimate daughter...

Go on. You go, to Ga Ok.

To the mountains, and to the sea...

Go on to far away places.

Go... Go in peace, Hyeongnim.

Go in peace!

Old Elder...

The Hopae skill. Would you like to master it?

Dong Su!

I want to learn.

As a warrior of Joseon, shouldn't you be proficient in Joseon's martial arts?

My unrealized dreams... Dong Su, you will have to fulfill them.

You need to surpass me. Can you do it?

I can do it.

This disciple will surely surpass you, Master, and will complete the journey to master Joseon's martial arts.

Sky Lord, it's your turn now.

The two of you are like my sons.

Aren't you going to see?

They will not stop you on a day like today.

I can't go there. How can I be at such an event?

Uncle left behind many things... especially for Dong Su.

Hyeongnim, you smart-ass...

If you were not well, you weren't, and you should have told us!

This banwi, what the heck... Banwi?

Though he has left this place,

he'll be with Miss over there.

We don't know but... He may be happier there than here.

To elderly Sword Saint, others here have nothing to say?

Dong Su, say something!

In blessed happiness...

He asked us to live on, in blessed happiness.

Blessed happiness? Hyeongnim is not even here anymore. How happy is that?

Hyeongnim, just...

just come back again, Hyeongnim.

Hyeongnim!

Jin Ju.

If I had known he was going to leave like this,

I would've held his hands for warmth.

And I would've done much more, like a daughter.

Dong Su, for me...

here... here... it hurts a lot.

Right here... right here!

It's too hard, that I can barely breathe.

Let me... just for a bit... Just for a bit, let me be alone.

Are you guys together?

You fellow, why did you fish without a hook?

Uncle, what did you leave undone?

You had at least three chances.

Did you wish to leave that for Dong Su?

-=Hyojong's Curved Moon Blade (Eon Woldo)=-

This blade weighs 82 geuns.

Now I can feel the burden on Father's shoulders.

Why did you take out this Woldo again?

I'm sorry, Your Majesty Grandfather.

I only wanted to inherit the royal tradition and practice martial arts.

I don't want to say anything more.

Take away this Woldo and melt it.

Your Majesty Grandfather.

But isn't this the Woldo left behind by Hyo Myo?

-=Hyo Myo: Great King Hyojong=- . But isn't this the Woldo left behind by Hyo Myo?

Prince Heir, it is something that can only harm you.

But Your Majesty Grandfather...

What are you doing? Hurry and take it away!

Yes, Your Majesty.

I have not seen any of them from early morning. Are they all still asleep?

You girl, go get them up. Food still needs to be eaten.

Yes.

Why have even you become like that?

Hey Ajumma dregs,

Is this rice soup?

Plain boiled water tastes better than this!

Aigoo, I'm sorry.

Wait a moment, I will get you another bowl.

That brat Dong Su didn't return even last night?

Yes, it has already been four days.

Don't wait.

Once he is ready, he will come back before long.

How is the order I placed earlier coming along?

It has just been completed well.

Cheon fellow, this much should be enough, right?

What happened to locating him?

That, at this time...

I didn't expect it either... Idiot.

What? Id... Idiot?

Jump! Jump! You did well.

Jump! Jump! You did well.

Look at that fish.

Let's go.

Ajussi,

that sword you use, how many people has it killed?

Father... Father...

Father.

Isn't there anyone here?

My father's enemy. You should die!

What is your father's name?

Warrior Camp Captain Jang Dae Po, why?

Jang Dae Po?

Well, then it's understandable.

Take it.

But...

where is that brat called Dong Su?

Ajussi.

Why are you here?

Ajussi, how can you come here?

Why? Is there still someone who remains to be killed?

I...

Never once was I afraid of you, Ajussi.

I knew you were bad...

but I was never once afraid of you, Ajussi.

But right now... Ajussi, you scare me.

When I think that you killed my father with that sword...

How...

How can the one that killed my father show up before me?

How can you? How can you?!

I couldn't even call him 'Father'.

I couldn't even hold his hand with warmth.

That's why...

that's why I asked that of you.

Why?

Why did you have to kill my father? Why?

Go! Go, go away!

Jin Ju!

- Jin Ju! - Jin Ju, keep your distance.

You bastard! You still have the audacity to come here!

Hyeongnim, what are you doing here?

All of you steer clear now!

Yes.

Let's go.

Bastard!

When you meet Gwang Taek on the way to hell,

kneel down and apologize!

Let go of me!

Dong Su.

Dong Su.

Revenge for my father...

You should certainly help me get that.

You have to get it for me.

Where is Baek Dong Su?

Don't open your mouth, bastard!

I'm asking you where Baek Dong Su is.

You fellow, why are you looking for our Dong Su?

I'm going to....

I'm only here to see Baek Dong Su.

Whether to kill or cut me up, is up to you.

Dong Su.

You are here?

Come out.

Be careful.

I'll leave Jin Ju to you.

Fine.

I will get it going.

Is this it?

Gwang Taek, what you left behind for me...

is this it?

This brat's immature sword...

Is this what you spent your life on?

What do you say I should do?

Am I to...

kill this brat, Baek Dong Su?

Hyeongnim, believe in Dong Su.

Jin Gi.

It is not that I don't believe in Dong Su.

You are unable to kill me.

A sword is wielded by the heart.

But from what I see,

there is only sad anger in you.

Don't you know it?...

if you want to kill me,

you have to thrust that sword into this heart with an anxious mind.

Only an anxious mind can move a sword.

So far I was repaying my debts.

Starting now, you should do it putting your life on the line.

Do you know?

That Gwang Taek fellow tried to catch fish without a hook.

I don't know what he was going to catch.

What are you doing?

That was my best strike.

Un.

As you survived even after taking a knife strike like that,

Dong Su, now you are Joseon's best swordsman.

What is going on?

However,

I will become Joseon's best assassin.

My thought, first of all, is to rise to that position.

The next one for that, will be you, Dong Su.

- Dong Su. - Dong Su.

Are you all right? You aren't injured, right?

Yes, I am fine.

Fine... fine.

Great! Great!

But, what became of Sky Lord?

Fine... fine.

Next time I see him,

I have to cut off his head.

Good, Let's go back, hurry.

Jin Ju.

Yeo Un, you are here.

Sky Lord, you have never once taught me lessons.

You stopped any insubordination and ordered only to become an assassin.

Anyhow, isn't this the path you chose?

Yes, this is the path I chose.

So, from now on,

I will do it my way.

Whether it's the heart, or life...

I want to have it all.

To be Heuksa's new Sky Lord,

I need to take the current Sky Lord's life.

Yes, it's about time.

Then you are willing to come with me?

I will not hide, and will also not hide anything.

An assassin and a martial artist...

what are the differences between them?

If there is blood I can take, I will surely do it.

That's really a good expression.

The look in your eyes now belongs to that of an assassin,

who controls the life and death of other people.

This is the true expression an assassin should have.

The only thing left for me is the path of an assassin.
