Transcript

00:00:01I'm with a great beard out of the river.

00:00:05Wow, looks like I caught a big one today.

00:00:07Whoa, what on earth is this?

00:00:12Young lady, just take me back and you'll have endless wealth and glory.

00:00:18Oh my god, is this the legendary carp spirit?

00:00:25Help! I said take me back to the palace, not send me to meet the reaper!

00:00:33Oh no, he wasn't a carp spirit after all.

00:00:37Oh no, hey old man, don't die on me!

00:01:04Still unconscious? Forgive me!

00:01:10The reaper.

00:01:13Turns out it's a woman.

00:01:17I'm sorry old man, I thought you were a river spirit.

00:01:19From now on, I will never listen to those customers spouting nonsense.

00:01:27I am no spirit, but I am just as powerful.

00:01:33Oh? Anyone can brag.

00:01:36Who exactly are you, old man?

00:01:41Truth be told, I am the reigning emperor.

00:01:45I had an accident traveling incognito, fell into the river, and drifted all night.

00:01:50Luckily you fished me out, young lady.

00:01:52You did a great service saving my life.

00:01:55As long as you escort me back, you can have any reward you desire.

00:01:58I can even make you a princess if you wish.

00:02:07Has this guy lost his mind from the water?

00:02:10My grandfather was like this in his later years too.

00:02:13One minute he claimed to be a god, and the next he said he was a fish.

00:02:17For old folks like him, I know exactly what to do.

00:02:20You just have to humor them.

00:02:27Yes, your majesty.

00:02:29You're soaked through.

00:02:30Do you want to change clothes first?

00:02:38Right.

00:02:40Help me get changed first, then summon the imperial physician.

00:02:47Why does my face hurt this much?

00:03:06Uncle Simon, this old man fell in the river.

00:03:08Help him change into something dry, and lend him some clothes.

00:03:38Tell her to come in and help me dress.

00:03:43You shameless old man!

00:03:46Asking an unmarried young woman to dress you?

00:03:49I'll teach you a lesson!

00:03:51Calm down, Uncle Simon.

00:03:53He's clearly not in his right mind.

00:03:57Palace maids have always dressed me.

00:04:00How does that make me shameless?

00:04:03Never mind.

00:04:04I won't argue with you.

00:04:21Maid, when will you take me back?

00:04:24Where do you live?

00:04:25The capital!

00:04:26What?

00:04:27Sir, do you even know how far the capital is from here?

00:04:31Then take me to the city.

00:04:34How do we get there?

00:04:36I wouldn't know.

00:04:37I have always traveled by carriage.

00:04:40This old man has really lost his mind.

00:04:48Goodman, let us eat first.

00:04:50We can talk about getting you home later.

00:04:55Besides catching fish, I am also great at cooking them.

00:05:10Smells delicious.

00:05:11Erica, you have not made fish soup in ages.

00:05:13You must be in a good mood today.

00:05:16I pulled a drowning old man from the river today.

00:05:18I made this to warm him up.

00:05:19He is totally confused.

00:05:21He cannot even remember his name or home.

00:05:29Avert your eyes!

00:05:31How dare you stare at me!

00:05:50Have you heard?

00:05:51Erica took in an old man claiming he's the emperor.

00:05:55He has definitely lost his mind.

00:06:00Guys, have you heard anything about a missing old man lately?

00:06:06Are you sure he is not faking it just to freeload food off you?

00:06:11Just let him be.

00:06:12Feeding him will not make us go broke.

00:06:19These wooden boards are too hard.

00:06:21My back is killing me.

00:06:25He snores louder than thunder.

00:06:28How is anyone supposed to sleep?

00:06:31This fish and tofu stew tastes even better than the food in the palace.

00:06:35When I return to the palace, I will make you the head royal chef.

00:06:38Yeah, right.

00:06:39Returning to the palace?

00:06:40I think you're losing your mind.

00:06:42He is totally out of his mind.

00:06:44Stop arguing with him.

00:06:45How dare you insult me!

00:06:53I gradually realize the old man might not be crazy.

00:06:57What he said could be true.

00:07:12What would you two like to eat?

00:07:15We heard.

00:07:16You took in a drowning old man recently.

00:07:27You are looking for him?

00:07:33You are...

00:07:38Master, we are here to take you home.

00:07:42There are too many eyes out here.

00:07:44Please keep quiet for now.

00:07:46No.

00:07:53These two are definitely hiding something.

00:08:02No need to be so formal, Eric.

00:08:06You see?

00:08:08I was telling the truth.

00:08:12Are they really your family?

00:08:14Why do you look like you do not know them?

00:08:19I command thousands of elite troops.

00:08:21I mean thousands of servants.

00:08:22How am I supposed to know all of them?

00:08:24These men must work for one of my sons.

00:08:25There is no mistake.

00:08:32Is he really the emperor?

00:08:36Our master is not right in the head.

00:08:39Just play along with him.

00:08:41I knew it.

00:08:42If he is the emperor, then I am the king of heaven.

00:08:46Master, it is getting late.

00:08:48Let's get going.

00:08:50It is already dark.

00:08:51You two must have traveled a long way.

00:08:53Eat something before you go.

00:08:56Let me tell you.

00:08:58If you pass this up, you will never find fish this delicious anywhere else.

00:09:13I told you it was delicious.

00:09:18Fair maid.

00:09:20You took such good care of our master.

00:09:22My master will surely reward you.

00:09:24Please come with us.

00:09:27Just take my boat.

00:09:28I'll take you there myself.

00:09:52I'll take you there myself.

00:09:52What?

00:09:53What are you doing?

00:09:55Forgive us.

00:09:56Old man, when you fell off the boat, we thought you died.

00:09:58Who knew you would be so hard to kill?

00:10:02This is regicide!

00:10:03Your entire lineage will be executed for this!

00:10:06Who is behind this?

00:10:07Hmm.

00:10:09Ignore him, Wayne.

00:10:11Tonight, we will silence every witness here.

00:10:13No one will ever know.

00:10:19Seras, please do not be reckless.

00:10:21I'm just a fisherman.

00:10:23This has nothing to do with me.

00:10:26Please just let me go.

00:10:28That's the price for sticking your nose into this.

00:10:30You chose to take him in.

00:10:31Anyone who was involved in this mess isn't leaving here alive.

00:10:33Shame about your talent for cooking fish.

00:10:35If you were smart, you would have stayed out of this.

00:10:38Let her go!

00:10:40Stop threatening an innocent woman!

00:10:46We've been spotted!

00:10:47Kill them now!

00:10:53Dammit!

00:10:55The food was spiked!

00:10:59You drugged the food!

00:11:20Look who is talking about crooked ends.

00:11:22I am a legitimate business owner.

00:11:24Powerless commoners like us must have ways to defend ourselves.

00:11:30Erica, how did you figure out these two were up to no good?

00:11:37I have run my river stall for years.

00:11:39The docks are full of shady characters and I have seen all sorts of people.

00:11:43When they saw you, it was not relief I saw.

00:11:45Instead, they immediately gripped their weapons through their bags.

00:11:47A murderous look flashed in their eyes.

00:11:49Simon and I noticed something was wrong immediately.

00:11:51Once the food was ready, we secretly applied sleeping powder to the rims of their bowls

00:11:54and the tips of their chopsticks.

00:11:55So when we sat down to eat, they suspected nothing.

00:11:58After that, I volunteered to escort them home.

00:12:00But I was actually keeping watch.

00:12:02If we had been mistaken, we would have simply apologized to their master.

00:12:06But since we were right...

00:12:09Well, we just saved your life again.

00:12:11Will you make me a lord this time?

00:12:16They actually want me dead.

00:12:18They've tried to kill me again and again.

00:12:22How could I have been so blind?

00:12:24Hey, please do not cry.

00:12:25A man of your age should not cry.

00:12:27I was only joking earlier.

00:12:28You do not need to make me a lord.

00:12:30Of course you will be one.

00:12:32Once I deal with those traitors, I will not only make you a lord, but grant you a hereditary title.

00:12:37Save it for when we get back.

00:12:38You are rambling again.

00:12:46Let's see you escape now.

00:12:47When they wake up, we'll question them properly.

00:12:50It is useless.

00:12:51Anyone sent to kill me is ready to die.

00:12:53Once they wake up, if they cannot escape, they will kill themselves.

00:12:56What do we do?

00:12:57We finally caught them alive.

00:12:58We cannot just sit and watch them die.

00:13:00First, I must return to the capital and find the commander of the Imperial Guards.

00:13:04That man is fiercely loyal to me and would never betray me.

00:13:07Come on, you were pushed into the river right under his nose.

00:13:09How is he reliable?

00:13:10And quit talking like an emperor already.

00:13:12You are just inviting the assassins to kill us.

00:13:14Goodman, you had better change your name.

00:13:15They are in the shadows and we are in the open.

00:13:17We must be careful.

00:13:23Call me Arthur Crown then.

00:13:25Why bother with a fake name?

00:13:26Just call yourself the emperor.

00:13:28This old man is hopeless.

00:13:37They are dead.

00:13:39I was right, was I not?

00:13:41Once their mission failed, if they couldn't escape, they were as good as dead.

00:13:45Besides knowing one of them was Jason Cole, we have no idea who was trying to have you killed.

00:13:49There is no need to investigate.

00:13:51Those with the best claim to the throne are the most suspicious.

00:13:53One of my sons must be behind this.

00:13:55Prince Dylan and Prince Eden are both lords in the capital, where their power is deeply entrenched.

00:13:59Only Prince Ryan, my youngest son, was exiled to a remote thief long ago, which actually makes him the safest

00:14:04choice.

00:14:04I have made my decision.

00:14:05I'll go to my youngest son first.

00:14:07The waterway is faster.

00:14:09Since Uncle Simon is rowing, he can take us south together.

00:14:28Arthur!

00:14:29How can you be sure your youngest son is not harboring a grudge and plotting your murder?

00:14:34You did exile him to that distant place.

00:14:40You do not understand the situation.

00:14:42Security around me is airtight.

00:14:43Anyone who could infiltrate the imperial gods must have enormous power.

00:14:48Ryan has been at his fee for years.

00:14:50He lost such capabilities long ago.

00:14:52Besides, my youngest son has always been straightforward.

00:14:55He's too honest to scheme against anyone.

00:14:58There's no way he'd rebel.

00:15:01So you are just exploiting a decent man.

00:15:03He had no share in the wealth and glory.

00:15:05Yet you seek him the moment you fall from grace.

00:15:20People say this place is lawless.

00:15:23Full of ruthless criminals.

00:15:25Looking at it now, that is clearly not the case.

00:15:30This old man doesn't even know his own son's land.

00:15:37Excuse me.

00:15:38Which way is Prince Ryan's estate?

00:15:40Are you here for justice or just for grain?

00:15:44What is the difference?

00:15:46If you seek justice, His Highness holds court for an hour every day specifically to receive petitions.

00:15:51If you need food and grain, register at the local office.

00:15:55Anyone living in this district can receive rations for their family, along with seeds for their crops.

00:16:00Judging by how you talk, Prince Ryan really seems like a kind man.

00:16:06You must be from out of town if you have not heard of Prince Ryan.

00:16:10His Highness is the Emperor's own son and has been our great saviour.

00:16:14Yes.

00:16:14Every household has an altar to pray for him.

00:16:18We pray for his health and for his long life, so that he may keep the people of this region

00:16:23safe and sound.

00:16:25I have not even earned that much respect, but this ungrateful son of mine already has.

00:16:28They even built altars for him.

00:16:59Are you visiting from out of town?

00:17:02Goodman, we are here to find Prince Ryan.

00:17:04This gentleman is a distant relative of the prince.

00:17:07We have come to seek his help.

00:17:08Prince Ryan?

00:17:09He's a really great man.

00:17:10He spent years building canals and improving the farmland.

00:17:13He transformed this barren wasteland into a land of abundance.

00:17:16He certainly did.

00:17:18He reformed the local government and kept the law in check.

00:17:21Life is much better for us now.

00:17:22We are all grateful for the grace of the prince and his father, our emperor.

00:17:28Ryan, my long forgotten son.

00:17:32If you head straight to his estate, you might miss him.

00:17:35At this hour, he's always in the fields.

00:17:37Just follow this road ahead.

00:17:39He is at the largest rice field.

00:17:58Which one is Prince Ryan?

00:18:09I expected someone much older.

00:18:11He is clearly a handsome young man.

00:18:25Father.

00:18:37this is outrageous traitors like these deserve death by anyone

00:18:49you both have shown great honor you saved my father's lifetime and again

00:25:08you make a fair point

00:25:10if you actually became my daughter-in-law

00:25:20he is always thinking about his next meal

00:27:45please return to us soon

00:27:48we cannot bear to see you leave

00:27:57my fellow citizens do not be sad

00:28:01I will send an official of great integrity

00:28:03I'll send an upright official

00:28:05who will treat everyone like family

00:28:09as for prince Ryan

00:28:10the one you all admire

00:28:11one thief is too small for his ambitions

00:28:16I will entrust him with far greater duties

00:28:20I hope he will not fail my expectations

00:28:29it seems prince Ryan

00:28:31is destined for greatness

00:28:57I remember our first few days

00:28:58at the estate of prince Ryan

00:29:00that blockhead always came to me

00:29:01for advice on dealing with his father

00:29:12he is your own father

00:29:13how can you not know his temper and preferences

00:29:22he is the supreme emperor

00:29:24I however am just a neglected prince

00:29:29I hardly saw my father's face growing up

00:29:33but I notice how you interact with him Erica

00:29:36speaking so freely

00:29:39even prince Dylan and prince Eden

00:29:40his favorites

00:29:41never dare to be so casual

00:29:43in the presence of our father

00:29:44do you have a secret for this?

00:29:48not a secret at all

00:29:50I just treat the emperor

00:29:51like any ordinary elder

00:29:53think of how commoners

00:29:55treat the elders in their family

00:29:57and I treat the emperor

00:29:58the same way

00:30:00I understand now

00:30:10Ryan

00:30:11what are you doing?

00:30:13when a father is in danger

00:30:14a son belongs by his side

00:30:16to protect him

00:30:26having the trust and gratitude

00:30:28of the emperor and his heir

00:30:29a life of luxury is surely guaranteed

00:30:32they might even grant you the title

00:30:34of the official imperial fisher

00:30:56your majesty

00:31:04why the panic

00:31:07prince Dylan has rebelled

00:31:08the rebel forces have blocked every path to the capital

00:31:12prince Eden has proclaimed himself king

00:31:21you treacherous sons

00:31:22while I was away

00:31:24is this how you guard the capital for me?

00:31:31I deserve death

00:31:34since the emperor was missing in the river

00:31:36the factions in court have already splintered

00:31:38prince Dylan intends to seize the throne

00:31:40while prince Eden waits to profit from the chaos

00:31:47a foolish dream

00:31:49those ungrateful and arrogant sons

00:31:52do they think that my empire can be toppled so easily?

00:31:59your majesty

00:32:00I anticipated this

00:32:02I took the tiger tally from the capital

00:32:04once we escape this place

00:32:06we can summon the troops to crush the rebellion

00:32:09good

00:32:10good

00:32:11good

00:32:11where is the nearest army?

00:32:13the mountain city army is three days away

00:32:18father

00:32:18the rebels of prince Dylan have sealed every road out of this thief

00:32:21we cannot leave by land

00:32:23our only chance is to take the river

00:32:27however

00:32:28however what?

00:32:29the imperial guards are all landlubbers from the capital

00:32:31they only know how to fight on land

00:32:33none of them can handle a boat

00:32:35if we are caught on the river we will

00:32:42why are you all staring at me?

00:32:44surely you do not expect a lowly fisher to perform a miracle?

00:32:51honestly the imperial gold is not easily earned

00:32:56I cannot simply watch my father face such peril

00:32:59I will protect him as we fight our way out

00:33:03Ryan! my dear son

00:33:08I shall protect the emperor and the prince with my life on our journey to the mountain city army

00:34:04with the virtue and skill of Erica

00:34:06any man would be blessed to have her

00:34:11I have caused you much trouble

00:34:17it is no trouble

00:34:18but it is a shame that your highness must live as a lowly fisherman with me

00:34:25in that case

00:34:27please do not call me your highness

00:34:28yes

00:34:29will you call me Ryan?

00:34:30as you wish Ryan

00:34:31let's board the boat

00:34:33yes my darling

00:34:35okay

00:34:35where's the thing?

00:34:38yeah

00:34:39is that right?

00:34:41okay

00:34:54not you

00:35:00poop

00:35:03nic

00:35:04so

00:35:04Chelsea

00:35:09You are a terror on dry land, but on the water, you are a pathetic mess.

00:35:15Silence. I will protect the Emperor with my life.

00:35:30Forgive me. I... I have become a burden to everyone.

00:35:36Silence. You are truly good for nothing.

00:35:44Get him into the cabin at once. Do not let anyone suspect us.

00:36:04Stay to your business. Stop the boat for an inspection.

00:36:15Officer. We are just humble fishers.

00:36:19We are taking the fish caught today to Lincoln Ward to sell.

00:36:49The river is closed today. Turn back at once.

00:36:54We have an agreement with the tavern to deliver this fresh fish.

00:36:57If we do not deliver the fish today, the fish will start to rot, and we will have to pay

00:37:01the tavern.

00:37:02Please show some mercy. Make an exception for us and let us pass through.

00:37:08I said no, and I mean it. A single basket of fish means nothing.

00:37:12Careful, or I will take your head.

00:37:21You useless brat. It is all your fault.

00:37:27If you had not insisted on this route, we wouldn't have missed the delivery.

00:37:30Now we are going to lose every penny.

00:37:39Heavens above, what am I going to do?

00:37:42I was counting on this silver to pay for my own burial.

00:37:45Now it is all gone.

00:37:47Ha ha ha.

00:37:49Ha ha ha.

00:37:51Ha ha ha.

00:37:52Ha ha ha.

00:37:53Ha ha ha.

00:38:00Father.

00:38:01Father, please, that is enough.

00:38:08Officer, please show some mercy.

00:38:11The poor man is counting on this catch to survive until his final day.

00:38:15If this sail falls through, he will trade my life for his burial.

00:38:23Get moving. Move along. All that noise is giving me a headache.

00:38:32Ryan, do not take it to heart.

00:38:33I was a bit too rough with you just now.

00:38:35It was only a matter of necessity.

00:38:37However, this matter stays between the three of us.

00:38:41You must never mention it again.

00:38:44Ha ha ha ha.

00:39:01I am dead.

00:39:02I am so dead.

00:39:04Am I dead for knowing a royal secret?

00:39:27All vessels and civilians are forbidden to pass.

00:39:30Stay where you are for questioning.

00:39:35This is not good.

00:39:36They must have discovered the decoy of my father.

00:39:38The five of us escaped in total secrecy.

00:39:40After leaving one man in the estate of Prince Ryan,

00:39:42he posed as the Emperor to distract the rebels

00:39:44in hopes of buying us more time.

00:39:46Now it appears that the rebels have stormed the estate of Prince Ryan.

00:39:49They realize the Emperor was not inside,

00:39:51and that is why they intensified the search.

00:40:20What do you think you are doing?

00:40:21You are not allowed to set up a stall here.

00:40:23Please calm down, officer.

00:40:24Since the river is closed today,

00:40:25we have nowhere else to go anyway.

00:40:26This boat is full of fresh fish caught today,

00:40:29and they will all rot by tomorrow morning.

00:40:31Why not let me cook them right here?

00:40:32You and your men can enjoy a fresh meal

00:40:34and keep yourselves warm.

00:40:35Hurry up then, as we are all starving.

00:40:58Officers, you have had a long day.

00:40:59Come and have a taste of the fresh catch.

00:41:03We have been camping in the wild for days

00:41:04without a single full meal.

00:41:05I am absolutely famished.

00:41:06The scent of this fish is incredible.

00:41:07I will not be polite then.

00:41:09Your Majesty,

00:41:10why are you so well behaved today?

00:41:13Are you not sneaking a bite for once?

00:41:15Do not think I did not notice.

00:41:17All those fish were caught right beside the boat.

00:41:48Look, look!

00:41:53Officer, is this liquor strong enough for you?

00:42:07Jason Cole.

00:42:15That woman from the shady stall?

00:42:22So you are still alive after all?

00:42:35Stop eating, everyone!

00:42:36The targets are here!

00:42:37Capture them at once!

00:43:03Down!

00:43:06Down!

00:43:08Down!

00:43:10And you still claim you do not run a shady store. I will make you pay for this today.

00:43:22Ryan.

00:43:25I am fine.

00:43:28Well, I am not fine!

00:43:43Once he sets foot on land, he will be a formidable warrior once again. The prowess of the commander of

00:43:48the Imperial Guards is certainly not to be taken lightly.

00:44:16Your Majesty, I have come to save you!

00:44:20Move! Board the boat immediately!

00:44:42Uncle Simon, go!

00:44:43Uncle Simon, go!

00:44:53Hail the lights!

00:45:20Finally, we are back on my turf.

00:45:38They are hiding right here! The prince said that their capture would bring a massive reward!

00:45:51Erika, what do we do now?

00:46:02Your Majesty, Ryan. Follow my lead.

00:46:22What was that noise?

00:46:31Help! There are river demons in the water!

00:46:38You have to be alright!

00:46:40I am not alone!

00:46:44Oh my God!

00:46:54Wait, what happened?

00:47:00I am not alone.

00:47:01I am not alone.

00:47:01I am not alone!

00:47:01You're not alone!

00:47:01No, I am alone.

00:47:03It is your childhood.

00:47:04What was that noise?

00:47:05I am not alone.

00:47:07This is why I am as human as well.

00:47:17What? What is that?

00:47:20Could river demons really exist?

00:47:31Stay back! Do not come any closer!

00:47:52Chief! You have finally returned!

00:48:15Chief! Is this band under your command?

00:48:19Yes!

00:48:22You are the chief of this crew?

00:48:29Chief! You heard them call me that, did you not?

00:48:34You are a bandit queen!

00:48:38Nonsense! We are only the anchor crew!

00:48:43Hiding a band of a thousand thieves?

00:48:46Huh?

00:48:47Somewhere in a legendary mountain.

00:48:52Commander Wood, you have been reading too many heroic fables.

00:49:06What is the matter with him?

00:49:10His pride is just wounded.

00:49:12Oh?

00:49:14He tried to play the hero just now, but he did not expect that you are far better at fighting

00:49:20than he is.

00:49:27Speaking of which, my daughter-in-law, please don't give up on my hopeless son.

00:49:33Your majesty, are you afraid of losing a daughter-in-law, or just afraid of having no fish to eat?

00:49:39A bit of both, I suppose.

00:49:46The great Prince Ryan would never fall for a wild woman like me.

00:50:11The great Prince Ryan would never fall for a wild woman like me.

00:50:12Charge! Charge!

00:50:13Soldiers, hear my command!

00:50:15Prince Dylan and Prince Eden have betrayed the throne!

00:50:18Treason of this magnitude shall find no mercy!

00:50:21Follow me to crush this rebellion to victory!

00:50:24To victory!

00:50:25To victory!

00:50:42The Emperor reclaimed the army.

00:50:44He struck the rebels at once.

00:50:45Loyalists rallied to the throne.

00:50:47They soon destroyed the power of Prince Dylan and Prince Eden.

00:50:50The Empire was secured again.

00:50:52Ryan was named the Crown Prince.

00:50:54With peace restored to the realm, the Emperor returned to the capital.

00:50:57The Empire was founded.

00:50:57The Empire was named by the Prince seas that unveiled a man in the capital.

00:50:58Whenever I knew this, I had to be able to go.

00:50:58Because at the table, we have to go.

00:51:09Erica.

00:51:10Why did you choose to help me?

00:51:22What did you choose to help me?

00:51:33eat do not go hungry long ago when i was begging with grandfather we passed through the territory

00:51:38you ruled you were just a boy newly exiled yet you were already issuing decrees that saved people

00:51:43like us those with no home and little hope driven by that mercy i gathered my strength and fought

00:51:46my way north armed with nothing but my skill in the water and a stubborn spirit that refused to

00:51:50break i carved out a path through every hardship until i became the chief of the anchor crew

00:51:54our crew operates between light and shadow which is why simon and i often wore disguises we posed as

00:51:57simple fishers and wine cellars just to seek out a few business opportunities i never expected to

00:52:01save the emperor by mere chance i did everything possible to keep him safe waiting for the right

00:52:06moment to bring him to you i only wanted him to see the truth for himself to see a prince

00:52:10who truly

00:52:10serves the common people and to see the perfect order you brought to this land everything that

00:52:17followed was quite unexpected i never thought the road would be so dangerous even less did i think

00:52:22you'd lose your heart to me your highness you are destined to be a great leader in the future

00:52:28knowing that makes every sacrifice i made feel worthwhile

00:52:35am i nothing more than a title in your eyes

00:52:51you are the man who will one day wear the crown you should marry a lady from a noble house

00:52:55i have

00:52:55been free and wild for far too long i only want a simple life upon the water fate brought us

00:52:59together

00:52:59but it was not meant to last once my only dream was to be a great ruler i would lead

00:53:07the empire with

00:53:07wisdom and bring peace to the people but now i wish that i were free to wander with the woman

00:53:15i love

00:53:22your highness you have your own path to follow and i have mine as well i am going to lead

00:53:27the anchor

00:53:27crew to become the greatest power in the world while you must carry the weight of your people

00:53:35i know that i cannot make you stay go now and i will watch you leave

00:53:49ryan hmm

00:53:55when you stood in front of me that day it truly meant the world to me

00:54:06forget it to hell with the rules i am the chief after all not some refined lady from a noble

00:54:11house

00:54:12my princess

00:54:20oh

00:54:21I don't know.

00:54:58I really thought that you would follow that lad to the capital as empress.

00:55:11I am the leader of the anchor crew. Who would want to be a wretched empress?

00:55:33Anyway, I've secured a grand future for the anchor crew.

00:55:37A grand future? What kind of future?

00:56:06Chief! Chief!

00:56:10Look, so this is the future you promised the crew?

00:56:20Is this truly the child of the crown prince?

00:56:24Of course.

00:56:30Perfect!

00:56:31The future leader of our crew has the crown prince as his father. Who would ever dare to cross us

00:56:36now? Even the authorities will have to step aside for us.

00:56:48When the emperor and the crown prince returned to the capital, they asked me what kind of reward I desired.

00:56:52I did not give them an answer.

00:56:57Because the reward that truly satisfies me is something I have already received.

00:57:19Chief! Something is wrong! The soldiers! The soldiers! They have surrounded the dock of our crew!

00:57:36Just when we finally found some peace, is it possible the remnants of Dylan and Eden have come back to

00:57:40haunt us?

00:57:50There is no need for panic. This river belongs to the Watsons.

00:57:55Please do not miss any of the idea!

00:57:58The family to the goddess the king.

00:58:04It has been a dream...

00:58:12...but it will never be so the heart-of-the-world.

00:58:14The people that try to threaten him, they want to do something they want.

00:58:14The people that do!

00:58:25...are you at home.

00:58:27Erika, since my father returned to the capital, he has been talking about how you would start showing symptoms by

00:58:32now. Your appetite must be quite poor. I searched the entire capital for this. Preserved Ginger is a miracle cure

00:58:39for nausea.

00:58:45Quite a grand spectacle, Your Highness. Bringing Ginger with the entire Imperial Guards. The Crown Prince has no place at

00:58:53this dock when he belongs on the Throne of Gold.

00:58:58The Throne of Gold is far too cold, and it is not comfortable at all. I gave you my word

00:59:03that I would protect you for life. Chopping wood and building fires is a skill I have truly mastered.

00:59:12Well, well! Do you all see this? The eye of our chief is truly sharp! The follow-up service is

00:59:20quite impressive! Even the scullery maid is delivered to the door!

00:59:36What are you waiting for? Since you are here to build fires, get to the backyard at once! Chop that

00:59:40pile of wet wood!

00:59:43Hey! I am going!

01:00:15Your Highness, have mercy. This is an urgent border report.

01:00:18The Emperor claims a headache as an excuse and insists that you review the matter.

01:00:21You must make the final decision. At least give it a single glance.

01:00:24Can you not see that I am busy? The feet of Erika are badly swollen today.

01:00:27I must finish this pile of wood quickly to boil water for her footbath.

01:00:37He is actually boiling water for a footbath. To think the Crown Prince would perform such a chore.

01:00:41If this news ever reaches the capital, the old men of the censoret will certainly die of shame.

01:00:52Just leave the reports on that large stone.

01:00:54Once Erika is finally in a deep sleep, I will find the time to review them.

01:00:58Nothing shall interrupt her footbath now.

01:01:07Chief.

01:01:10Chief!

01:01:11Look at that beggar over there!

01:01:13Why does he look exactly like that old man, Arthur Crown?

01:01:24Erika, quick!

01:01:25Erika, quick!

01:01:27I am here!

01:01:29Prepare for my welcome!

01:01:41Your majesty!

01:01:42You belong on the throne in the capital.

01:01:44Why did you come here looking like this?

01:01:51I am done with that throne!

01:01:53It is so stiff that it is painful to sit on!

01:01:55The palace food is worse than tasteless dishwater!

01:01:57Erika, I've been starving for three whole days!

01:01:59Prepare a bowl of fish and tofu at once!

01:02:20Now this is the flavor that I missed.

01:02:22Since I returned to the palace, those servants have served nothing but the most bland and hollow meals.

01:02:27They focus only on fancy decorations.

01:02:28Everything looks beautiful to the eye, but there is no actual flavor within.

01:02:30My sense of taste is slowly fading away because of them.

01:02:34Hmph.

01:02:40You are a distinguished guest.

01:02:43But with that look, did you run away from home?

01:02:46Or are you just slacking off on your duties?

01:02:55Who cares about that?

01:02:58In this world of ours, a good meal is the only thing that counts.

01:03:14Erika, I would like another bowl of rice.

01:03:16Drench it in that fish broth for me.

01:03:23There is plenty of fish and rice for everyone.

01:03:41Erika, while enjoying the fish you prepared these days,

01:03:44I have come up with a flawless plan.

01:03:47I will fire the head of the imperial kitchen who only knows how to make useless radish carvings.

01:03:52You must bring the little one and come back to take charge.

01:03:56Once that is done, Ryan can finish the reports in the throne room

01:03:59and walk right over to the inner palace to be with you.

01:04:01I will also get to enjoy this tofu fish every single day.

01:04:06Life would be absolutely perfect.

01:04:19Your majesty.

01:04:21I am the leader of the anchor crew.

01:04:23Not some personal cook for your family.

01:04:33Leading the imperial kitchen is an honor that most only dream of.

01:04:38Surely it beats the harsh life on the water.

01:04:41I have several thousand members of my crew who rely on me to fill their bellies.

01:04:44If I move to the palace for comfort,

01:04:47do you expect them to pack their bags,

01:04:49enter the capital,

01:04:50and drain the national treasury?

01:05:05Father,

01:05:05the spirit of Erika is wild.

01:05:07She loves the breeze of the open river.

01:05:09She hates the high walls of the palace.

01:05:10And what of you?

01:05:11You are the crown prince.

01:05:17I have made my decision.

01:05:18I will simply work twice as hard.

01:05:21I can handle the throne during the day

01:05:23and return to this dock every night.

01:05:26Sean rose fast enough for the trip,

01:05:28so I will not feel any exhaustion.

01:05:32Your highness,

01:05:34please show some mercy.

01:05:36If you travel back and forth like that,

01:05:37I am the one who will truly suffer.

01:06:09Your highness,

01:06:10your head is bleeding.

01:06:11You are injured,

01:06:13so please sit and rest.

01:06:15This little bit of blood means nothing.

01:06:19Erika is in far more pain than I am.

01:06:38Push harder, chief!

01:06:39I can see the head now!

01:07:00Congratulations to you all!

01:07:02The chief has finally given birth!

01:07:04It is a radiant baby girl!

01:07:06Both mother and daughter are well.

01:07:16Wonderful!

01:07:17I finally have a granddaughter!

01:07:20I have finally gained a sweet granddaughter

01:07:21who will never grow a beard like my sons!

01:07:32She is so beautiful.

01:07:33Her features are truly delicate.

01:07:37She looks just like Erika.
