Episode 20

Then,

what am I supposed to do for Goongbon?

First, go to the naval base

and get back the stolen maps.

Then...

When will Jo Kwan Woong get killed?

He will

die tonight.

Look here!

Is there anyone outside?

Is there nobody?!

Who are you?

Did that wench, Yoon Seo Hwa, send you?

Deputy Seo...

I'm sorry I'm late, My Lord.

Where have you been all this time?

It's a long story,

but first, it's dangerous here, please evacuate.

I'll escort you.

My Lord,

hurry and run, it's dangerous.

You...

No way...

You...

Do you know me?

Do you...

know me?

Can't you hear what I'm saying?

Take off that bracelet and take my sword.

Master...

Why are you being like this?

Why are you doing this to me?

Even if you don't take off your bracelet, I will attack you and stab you.

If you don't want to be hurt, take off that bracelet!

Take it off!

This makes no sense...

How is this possible?

No doubt, you should be dead.

I saw you cut down.

I saw it with my own eyes, how could you...

You saw me die?

Then, was it you who made me this way?

What?

The one who drew me here,

was that also you?

My Lord, please escape.

We'll take care of him.

What are you doing? Attack him!

Weaker than weak. Isn't that the life of a human?

Lighter than a passing breeze,

isn't that the human life?

You bastard!!

Stop what you're doing right now!

Then answer me. How do you know me?

And the one who made me like this,

was it you?

It's not me. It's Seo Hwa!

Seo Hwa?

That's right. Yoon Seo Hwa.

She made you like this.

That wench is your bane!

Who is that?

What did you say?

Seo Hwa...

Who is she exactly?

What's your relationship with Choi Kang Chi?

We are studying at the same Academy.

I see.

So...

Why did you come to see me?

Can't you return

to Kang Chi?

Right now you...

What are you trying to say?

You are his mother.

Although I don't know why you abandoned Kang Chi in a river,

from now on,

can't you live as Kang Chi's mother?

All the time and scars he's received without a mother...

can't you embrace and look after him?

The time you two could not have together,

can't you start over now?

Can't you?

I don't want to.

Why do I have to fight with you using a real sword, Master?

Please tell me the reason first.

Before that, I absolutely don't want to fight with you.

Master!

Defeat me.

What?

If you can't defeat me,

I'll cut and stab you.

Training until the sword wears out?

What does that mean?

It's just as it sounds,

you fight until swords wear out.

Until the swords wear out, that means...

It will end only when one of the two dies or gets critically injured.

It's an extreme training method.

What?

Does that mean

that Master is trying to kill Kang Chi?

What is training?

Something you learn and practice.

What's the purpose of training given by teachers?

That's... to develop strong pupils.

That means.. Master is...

That's right, Seong.

In order to make him stronger, he's risking his life.

If you look at it,

it's a training exercise you can only give once in a lifetime.

Why is it him?

He's the only one who can defeat the 1000 Year Demon.

For him, who has the unfortunate destiny to slay his own father,

this is the only thing I can do for him.

But, Master...

In addition, isn't it I who turned his father into that demon?

It's a burden I must carry.

But you still can't! You can't do that!

This might be my last training.

I'm sorry it isn't against your sword.

However, if my life can be used to enlighten a disciple,

wouldn't that be the best death for a master?

Are you taking your sincerity that far?

If that's what it takes to bring out his inner potential,

I'm ready to accept that fate.

Master...

Go and bring Kang Chi.

Really, why are you doing this to me!

Stand up!

Do you still bear a grudge towards me, Master?

Didn't I warn you?

So you had better fight with all your might.

Stand up!

If that's what you want...

that's fine with me.

Let's do this!

It's Pil Mo. Can I come in for a moment?

Please come in.

Lady, did you perhaps attack Jo Kwan Woong's place last night?

That's right, I did that.

How can you do something like that?

Didn't I tell you that it isn't time yet?

Park Tae Seo will now do the work Jo Kang Woong has been doing.

We can't trust Park Tae Seo yet.

Besides, in terms of connections and information power,

it would take at least 10 years for him to reach the level of Jo Kwan Woong.

Then, what am I supposed to do?

Jo Kwang Woong should already be a cold corpse.

Please step outside for a minute.

Did you have a peaceful night, ma'am?

What's going on?

I'm here to ask you what's going on!

Why are your men dead in my office?

You dared to kill my people?

How dare...

you try to take my life?

If it's like that, what are you going to do?

What?

Ma'am, please!

Kageshima!

What are you trying to do now?

As a human,

stop breathing.

What?

Every time you breathe out, the stench is just unbearable!

I cannot stand it any longer! Just die!

Seo Hwa, you wench!

Cut off his head!

Jae Ryung...

Take back your order, ma'am.

Jae Ryung.. How could you?

From now on, any of your orders that are outside of your duty as the leader of Goongbon,

I am not going to obey.

Hence, take back the order that you gave out of your personal feelings.

What's wrong, Head Mistress?

Did you hear some bad news?

It says the movement of the Japanese merchant at 100 Year Inn seems suspicious.

It seems like there is a mutiny.

Pardon? Then, did something happen to the leader of Goongbon?

Miss..

Governess!

You scared me. What are you doing here?

I've been waiting for you, Miss.

Where did you go?

Me?

Where did you think I went? I went out for some fresh air.

Some fresh air?! Then, did you spend the night out?

Hey, what do you mean, spend the night out? How can you say that?

I'm sorry. By any chance, you didn't tell father, right governess?

I wanted to, but I couldn't.

Starting from last night, Master has been training his disciple.

Training all night?

Instructor.

What is all this? Father and Kang Chi are doing extreme sword training?

It has continued from last night.

Neither of them has come out from there.

Teacher!

This is something Master Dam decided, Yeo Wool

However, extreme sword fighting?

Why would father do this? Why to Kang Chi?

Master Dam decided this.

Quickly, come here now.

I don't want to.

I told you to fight with all your strength.

Why are you acting like a coward, running away and hiding?

I'm not hiding because I'm a coward.

I'm hiding because I don't want to fight with you, Master.

If you can't fight me,

how will you be able to fight against your father?

Your father, who has become a demon, is indiscriminately killing people.

The only person who can stop him is you,

but with such a weak heart, how will you be able to go against him?

Master...

Fight and defeat me as if you are fighting against your father.

If you can't defeat me,

you will never be able to defeat your father.

Do your best.

To be honest, none of us knows the true extent of your powers.

Bringing out your potentials

depends on your will and mind.

Master is trying to make you realize that now.

So, give it all you got.

You're insulting the master by not doing your best, Choi Kang Chi.

Kang Chi!

At this rate, you don't stand a chance. You're too weak!

Remember the moment when you could muster up the most power in you!

Kang Chi!

Yeo Wool!

Don't do that! Father!

Kang Chi!

I said stop it, you bastards!!!

Come on!

HIYAAAA!

Once you decide to attack, don't ever hesitate.

The moment you hesitate, you will die.

Not only you,

but everyone you need to protect will die with you.

Being strong means to know how to draw the line between mercy and mercilessness.

Being strong means to have both a burning heart for justice and a cool head for judgment.

That is why to be strong is to be lonely.

Only when you can keep it all in control can you win.

Keep that in mind, Kang Chi.

As soon as you recover, come back here by the hour of the monkey (3PM).

Kang Chi!

Kang Chi Hyungnim!

Kang Chi.

Are you alright?

Hurry up and master the lesson Master is trying to teach you.

What is this?

It's an apology for the recent disturbance.

Please accept it.

Isn't this a matchlock musket?

To celebrate our alliance with you, my lord.

It's a gift.

This is more than I had expected,

I can't just take it for free.

Deputy Seo.

Accept it. It's my gift to you.

This...

What is this?

They are getting ready to make this at the Naval Base.

It's an ironclad battleship.

These are the cannons to equip the Turtle ship.

The Heaven Cannon, which has the most power,

uses 20 nyang of gunpowder to shoot explosive rounds,

and has a range of about 700 paces.

Increase the usage of gunpowder to 30 nyang and upgrade the range to 900 paces.

Yes, Admiral.

The Earth Cannon uses 15 nyang of gunpowder,

can shoot up to 100 Bird-Egg rounds,

and the range is about 500 paces.

Increase the usage of gunpowder to 20 nyang

and double the capacity for Bird-Egg rounds.

Try to upgrade the range to 800 paces.

Yes, Admiral.

Admiral.

Officer Na Dae Yong is here.

Admiral.

So...

How is the result?

As you requested,

I have made the changes and revised the blueprints.

Is Lee Soon Shin...

really planning to build this ship?

Whether he can really build it or not,

it has not been verified yet.

Even if he can really build it,

you don't have to worry too much.

I will...

I will make sure to wipe them all out.

Once you decide to attack, don't ever hesitate.

The moment you hesitate, you will die.

Not only you, but everyone you need to protect will die with you.

Getting stronger means...

bearing that much more responsibility.

Kang Chi...

I brought your clothes.

Oh.

How's your wound?

I'm okay.

It's all better.

Let me look!

Omo.. oh...

Even so, it still must've hurt a lot...

Right?

Oh?

Oh.. well...

Why?

Nothing..

You're supposed to change, why are you putting that back on?

That's right...

Ah.

I understand.

♫ I’ll wait for you ♫

♫ I couldn’t say those words ♫

♫ So again today, I linger around you ♫

♫ Because of the painful memories that made you cry ♫

♫ I couldn’t say those last words, “Don’t go” ♫

Are you that happy to see a man's bare body?

When did I?

I thought you were a naive girl.

But you can't contain your happiness.

I don't like just any guy's bare body.

Then...?

You are happy because it's my body, Gudae (Dear)?

Again, you're thinking highly of yourself, Gudae.

Aigooo...

Hey, Uh-What are you doing?

♫ The words “I love you” ♫

♫ In my heart which is crying on the inside ♫

♫ I couldn’t say anything and my memories ride the wind ♫

♫ As I hide behind my tears, I wait for you ♫

Yeo Wool.

Hmm?

I...

Can I really become stronger?

Will I be able to handle it?

You're already strong.

It's just that you haven't realized it.

♫ The words "I love you" ♫

♫ In my heart that’s crying on the inside ♫

This is nice.

♫ I couldn’t say anything and my memories ride the wind ♫

♫ As I hide behind my tears, I wait for you ♫

Choi Kang Chi... It's me. Are you in there?

Choi Kang Chi.

Hey, Gon!

What is it?

A visitor came to see you.

Cheong Jo. What are you doing here?

I came with an urgent message about the head of Goongbon, Kang Chi.

It seems like the Head merchant might be in trouble.

What are you saying, Jae Ryeong? What do mean, leave this place?

On the last day of this month, there is a boat leaving from Port Busan to Osaka.

You'd better leave today if you want to catch that boat.

When was it?

When did you turn from me?

It was you that changed your mind, not me.

You will be leaving in an hour so please hurry and get ready.

They are going to leave the inn around 3 o'clock.

What are you going to do?

This may be the last time you see her, don't you think you should go see her?

I have the same thoughts as Cheong Jo, Kang Chi.

If you don't meet her this time, you might never have another chance to meet her in the future.

I am supposed to have practice with Master then.

I can't.

She's your mother.

You finally met her after 20 years. You can't send her off like this.

Don't regret in vain later and go meet her.

She's someone who gave birth to me and thought I was so horrible that she abandoned me by a river.

For 20 years, she's someone who said it was none of her business whether I was beaten to death or strangled to death!

How is that a mother? What kind of a mother is that?

Kang Chi.

She is somebody that doesn't exist to me.

The moment she abandoned me, she disappeared from my life! ERASED FROM MY LIFE!! Calling her my mother is a waste. So...

don't ever talk about that person again, Yeo Wool.

I'm begging you.

Wol Ryung,

where are you?

Look here, Wol Ryung.

My Lord.

You're late.

I had to take care of an urgent matter.

Seo Hwa, did you bring her?

Before that, I have something to tell you.

Among us humans, if you want to earn something

you have to pay appropriately.

We call it a "deal."

A deal?

For giving you that wench, Seo Hwa, what are you going to do in return?

Are you, a mere human, dealing with me right now?

It wouldn't be fair otherwise, would it, Wol Ryung? Eh?

First, tell me where Seo Hwa is.

Does that mean

that you are willing to do a deal with me?

Not killing you is my offer.

If you don't want to die, tell me where Seo Hwa is.

Hurry.

-Ok, ok, ok, ok! - T-t-t-this one!

This one is appealing today.

It's not that one, it's this one.

You scared me!

Oh my! Kang Chi dongsaeng!

Dongsaeng, what are you doing here?

Oh my!

The dark circle under your eyes is about to extend almost 20 miles long!

Did something happen?

I'm hungry. Let's go eat.

Huh?

Really.

Here. Here.

This one is dongsaeng's.

This is the special one I picked out for you, so enjoy.

Is your mother well?

Of course.

She's been nagging me so much recently about getting married!

Even though she can't see, she has high standards.

She is a really picky about how the bride should look.

Mothers...

are all like that, right?

They worry a lot

and nag a lot.

Of course all mothers are like that.

But why are you suddenly talking about mothers?

Is there something you are worrying about, Kang Chi dongsaeng?

Never mind. It's nothing.

Did you possibly get dumped?

What are you talking about?

Hey! I knew this would happen!

Why would flawless Kang Chi Dongsaeng.. with "flower man"... What a nonsense!

No matter how pretty he looks, that's a forbidden love.

"Flower man"? Who are you talking about?

What do you mean, "who"? The person that's always with you! You know "who"!

Do you mean me?

Yeah this "Flower man". Ohh.. You scared me.

You've been gossiping about me behind my back?

No I mean...

Hey, Ma Bong Chool, does she look like a young master (a noble boy) to you too?

Of course!!

Running in pants. This is a man. If not, what is it?

As I expected there's nothing wrong with my eyes.

I, too, thought she was a man when we first met.

Omma!

Is this man even insisting that he's not a man now?

Omi. Esssh...

I can't listen to this any longer!

By the way, why did you come all the way down here?

I was going back soon.

I was worried about you, and I have something to tell you.

Something to say? What?

To be honest, Kang Chi...

Last night I met that person.

That person?

I mean your mother.

I wish you safe trip back home.

Leader.

Yoon Seo Hwa.

With this, our bad relationship is over now.

Take care of it without any mistakes.

Yes.

Don't cross the line. (In Japanese)

Everything is to protect the Goongbon merchant.

Then...

Are you ready to fight?

I'll end it quickly this time, Master.

Don't hesitate.

I won't hesitate.

You shouldn't put mercy at the end of attack.

I will do it without mercy.

She called herself a sinner.

For the past twenty years I have never slept lying down.

Not once in the last 20 years?

Why is that?

It's because I'm a sinner.

The sin, for letting that person die like that.

The sin, for abandoning my child like that.

How could a sinner like that sleep peacefully?

I can't even ask for forgiveness from that child. Going back to him..

I cannot do it.

Don't you think that it's time to forgive that kind of mother?

If you don't forgive her, even if she wanted to come back, she can't.

Isn't that right?

Why are you standing there daydreaming. Hurry and attack.

Let me ask you just one question.

Master, what does that sword mean to you?

When I am fighting, the sword is my everything.

Is that so.

Then, I will start.

Come!

Since I brought your sword down, I won, Master.

Are you going to meet her now?

Yeah.

Father...

Gon.

Safely escort Yeo Wool.

Yes, Master.

If they are going to depart from Port Busan, they must pass Yong Dam Gol.

I know the shortcut, Miss.

Thank you.

What did you see earlier?

After the final round, you seemed very startled.

What did you see?

I think he found a way.

You said the sword is your everything, Master.

Since the sword fell, I won, Master.

Then Kang Chi, without the bracelet,

without Yeo Wool,

he returned back to his human form.

I see.

Kang Chi has finally found the composure that allows him to maintain his human form.

Now, I think it's time to send him off to find the Gu Family Book.

Did you deliver my message to Young Master Tae Seo?

Yes. He said he will come before we pass Yong Dam Gol.

Why did you follow us here? (In Japanese)

Jae Ryung has ordered us to escort her.

Leader. Quickly.

Run away first, Leader.

I don't want to go alone. Let's go together.

Take my hand already.

You dare to harm me!

I am the head of the Miyamoto merchants!

Put your sword down!

NO!!

Leader...

What are you guys?

Isn't it too much against one woman?

Why are you here?

It's none of your business.

Go! Quickly!

My personality won't let me sit and watch this kind of situation.

Let me see.

1...2...3..4.

It seems like there are more than 10 people.

12 in total.

Then 3 of us can fight 4 each.

What are you talking about? Two is enough.

Gon and I will take care of this. You escort your mother to safety.

Didn't you hear Miss Yeo Wool? She said leave.

Don't get hurt.

Mm. Of course.

Get them!

Let go of me!!!!!

Quickly go, Kang Chi.

Are you okay, Miss Yeo Wool?

Of course!

Then...See you at the mountain entrance.

Leader. (In Japanese)

Please forgive me. (In Japanese)

Go ahead and

stand up.

With me...

Let's go together.

Just go!

I have something to do on my own.

Don't do this!

Let go of me!

Come with me!

Please let go of me!

I have something to do.

I have to kill someone!

The one that ruined my family and made your father and me like this,

and the one that tried to kill me, I am going to kill with my hand!

So let go of my hand! Let it go!!

What about me?!!

You only see the ones you need to kill...

Don't you see me?

I risked my life to come.

Don't you see your son who ran here to save you?

I...

am your son.

Even so I...

am still your son, Mother!

I'm sorry.

For being this kind of a mother,

I'm really sorry.

Mother.

Kang Chi!

Is it you, Young Master Tae Seo?

What?

Young Master Tae Seo?

You remember my swordsmanship, Brother Gon.

Swordsmanship I see once,

it's my habit to remember.

What happened to the head of Goongbon?

Kang Chi has probably escorted her to safety.

Then we need to escort Miss Yeo Wool to safety now.

Of course.

We are supposed to meet my friends here.

Take a rest for a moment.

I will go see if they are coming.

Take care of yourself.

Wol Ryung?

Wol Ryung...

Is that you?

Who are you?

Do you know...

me?

Wol Ryung...

Wol Ryung.

Kang Chi.

No.

Anymore.

You can't.

Kang Chi.

No more.

Don't kill anyone.

I won't let you.

I...

will stop you,

Wol Ryung.
