Short filmTranscript
00:00:01I'm with a great beard out of the river.
00:00:05Wow, looks like I caught a big one today.
00:00:08Whoa, 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 carpe 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 carpe spirit after all.
00:00:50Hey, 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.
00:03:44You shameless old man, asking 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.
00:04:07I 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?
00:04:32Then take me to the city.
00:04:34How do we get there?
00:04:36I wouldn't know.
00:04:38I 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 realized 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.
00:07:53These 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.
00:08:38Just play along with him.
00:08:41I knew it.
00:08:42If he is the emperor,
00:08:44then 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,
00:08:59you 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.
00:09:52What?
00:09:53What are you doing?
00:09:55Forgive us.
00:09:56Old man,
00:09:56when you fell off the boat,
00:09:58we thought you died.
00:09:59Who 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,
00:10:11we will silence every witness here.
00:10:13No one will ever know.
00:10:19Ferris,
00:10:20please 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
00:10:32isn't leaving here alive.
00:10:33Shame about your talent for cooking fish.
00:10:35If you were smart,
00:10:36you would have stayed out of this.
00:10:38Let her go!
00:10:39Stop threatening an innocent woman!
00:10:45We'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
00:11:25must have ways to defend ourselves!
00:11:30Erika,
00:11:31how did you figure out
00:11:32these 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
00:11:41and I have seen all sorts of people.
00:11:43When they saw you,
00:11:43it was not relief I saw.
00:11:45Instead,
00:11:45they immediately gripped their weapons
00:11:46through their bags.
00:11:47A murderous look flashed in their eyes.
00:11:49Simon and I noticed
00:11:50something was wrong immediately.
00:11:51Once the food was ready,
00:11:52we secretly applied sleeping powder
00:11:53to the rims of their bowls
00:11:54and the tips of their chopsticks.
00:11:55So when we sat down to eat,
00:11:57they suspected nothing.
00:11:58After that,
00:11:59I volunteered to escort them home.
00:12:00But I was actually keeping watch.
00:12:02If we had been mistaken,
00:12:04we would have simply apologized
00:12:05to their master.
00:12:06But since we were right...
00:12:09Well,
00:12:09we 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.
00:12:21How 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.
00:12:31Once I deal with those traitors,
00:12:33I will not only make you a lord,
00:12:35but 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,
00:12:48we'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,
00:12:53if they cannot escape,
00:12:55they 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,
00:13:00I must return to the capital
00:13:02and find the commander of the Imperial Guards.
00:13:04That man is fiercely loyal to me
00:13:05and would never betray me.
00:13:07Come on!
00:13:07You were pushed into the river
00:13:08right 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,
00:13:14you had better change your name.
00:13:15They are in the shadows
00:13:16and 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,
00:13:42if they couldn't escape,
00:13:43they were as good as dead.
00:13:45Besides knowing one of them was Jason Cole,
00:13:47we 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
00:13:52are the most suspicious.
00:13:53One of my sons must be behind this.
00:13:55Prince Dylan and Prince Eden
00:13:56are both lords in the capital
00:13:57where their power is deeply entrenched.
00:13:59Only Prince Ryan,
00:14:00my youngest son,
00:14:01was exiled to a remote thief long ago,
00:14:02which actually makes him the safest choice.
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,
00:14:10he can take us south together.
00:14:28Arthur,
00:14:29how can you be sure your youngest son
00:14:31is not harboring a grudge
00:14:33and 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
00:14:46must have enormous power.
00:14:48Ryan has been at his fee for years.
00:14:50He lost such capabilities long ago.
00:14:52Besides,
00:14:53my 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,
00:15:26that 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,
00:15:47His Highness holds court for an hour every day
00:15:50specifically to receive petitions.
00:15:51If you need food and grain,
00:15:53register at the local office.
00:15:55Anyone living in this district
00:15:56can receive rations for their family,
00:15:58along with seeds for their crops.
00:16:00Judging by how you talk,
00:16:01Prince Ryan really seems like a kind man.
00:16:06You must be from out of town
00:16:08if you have not heard of Prince Ryan.
00:16:10His Highness is the Emperor's own son
00:16:12and has been our great savior.
00:16:14Yes.
00:16:15Every household has an altar to pray for him.
00:16:18We pray for his health and for his long life
00:16:20so that he may keep the people of this region safe and sound.
00:16:25I have not even earned that much respect,
00:16:26but this ungrateful son of mine already has.
00:16:28They even built altars for him.
00:16:58Are you visiting?
00:17:00from out of town?
00:17:02Goodman,
00:17:02we 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
00:17:12and improving the farmland.
00:17:13He transformed this barren wasteland
00:17:15into a land of abundance.
00:17:16He certainly did.
00:17:18He reformed the local government
00:17:19and kept the law in check.
00:17:21Life is much better for us now.
00:17:23We are all grateful for the grace of the prince
00:17:24and his father, our emperor.
00:17:28Ryan,
00:17:29my long forgotten son.
00:17:32If you head straight to his estate,
00:17:34you might miss him.
00:17:35At this hour,
00:17:36he'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.
00:18:36This is outrageous.
00:18:40Traitors like these deserve death by anyone!
00:18:49You both have shown great honor. You saved my father's lifetime and again. Words cannot express my gratitude.
00:18:57Please accept my bow.
00:18:58You are too kind, your highness. Now that we've brought him safely, Uncle Simon and I are done. We'll leave
00:19:04tomorrow.
00:19:14You cannot leave! I will take you to the capital and make you a princess!
00:19:30So comfortable. I have spent most of my life on the river. I am just a rough boatman always braving
00:19:35the wind and rain.
00:19:36I never expected to see the day I could live like a wealthy man with servants waiting on me.
00:19:47The Emperor is super paranoid right now. He trusts no one, except us two.
00:19:53So Prince Ryan has to treat us well.
00:19:58I recently introduced this new crop variety. This year's harvest will definitely double.
00:20:03The yield is high and the grain is excellent.
00:20:06Excellent. Feeding the people shows true leadership.
00:20:12And repaying what you owe is just the right thing to do.
00:20:15You have three days to return the farmer's money or face severe punishment.
00:20:19You are incredibly wise, your highness. You're a truly fair lord.
00:20:22He handles cases fairly and carefully. Very methodical.
00:20:27My calm, humble son, Prince Ryan, has actually achieved such great things here in this remote land.
00:20:38I completely misjudged him before.
00:20:48Erika, add more chili peppers.
00:20:51Well, I absolutely love your bold local dishes.
00:20:55They are far better than palace feasts.
00:20:58You got it. Just wait and see. I guarantee it will make you sweat.
00:21:08What are the prince and that man doing?
00:21:11Look away. Pretend you saw nothing.
00:21:16Erika, just look at this scene.
00:21:18The father is peeling garlic, the son is chopping wood, and the wife is cooking.
00:21:24You three look just like a family.
00:21:32Uncle Simon, stop talking nonsense. His highness is royalty.
00:21:35I am just an ordinary fisher. We belong to different worlds.
00:21:40If word of this gets out, we could lose our heads.
00:22:02Sigh. Why has my escort not arrived yet?
00:22:06Assassins keep coming in waves. I am going to die out here sooner or later.
00:22:20Kill them all! Leave no one alive!
00:22:24Leave my father alone!
00:22:37Protect me!
00:22:49Father...
00:22:49Go now!
00:22:51You ask for death?!
00:22:56You're here!
00:23:00Fall back!
00:23:10Ryan, my dear son!
00:23:13Are you hurt?
00:23:14I am fine.
00:23:17As long as you are safe, father.
00:23:36My son, your life is too precious.
00:23:39How could you risk yourself like this?
00:23:42Quickly, send someone else to protect me.
00:23:51Father, your life is the one that truly matters.
00:23:53As your son and your subject, I would gladly give my life for you.
00:23:56Nonsense!
00:23:57Stop talking about dying!
00:23:58You will rule the Empire one day!
00:24:00How can you just die?
00:24:08I...
00:24:09I will take my leave now.
00:24:18Sigh.
00:24:20What a blockhead.
00:24:21Shouldn't he swear his loyalty right now and at least pretend to decline?
00:24:24No wonder he has been stuck in this wasteland and forgotten by everyone all these years.
00:24:35Erica, for the past few days I have been meaning to ask you, do you want to be a princess
00:24:40or do you want to be my daughter-in-law?
00:24:44So his majesty actually heard what Uncle Simon said that day.
00:24:50No offense, your majesty, but I have no desire to live a life full of constant fear.
00:24:54If you truly wish to reward me, just give me some food and money.
00:24:57I would rather live a free and easy life.
00:25:08You make a fair point.
00:25:10If you actually became my daughter-in-law, it would be highly improper to have you cook fish for me
00:25:15every day.
00:25:20He is always thinking about his next meal.
00:25:22What a gluttonous old man.
00:25:33If anyone dares to harm our prince, we will fight them to the death.
00:25:36That is right.
00:25:38Protect the prince and protect the emperor.
00:25:40Charge!
00:25:42Charge!
00:25:54Charge!
00:25:57With a defense like this, not even a single fly could get through.
00:26:15After two weeks of such a massive search, the imperial escort has finally arrived.
00:26:30Your majesty, now that you are safe, I can finally rest in peace.
00:26:39That is enough.
00:26:41Stop all this weeping.
00:26:43If anyone deserves thanks, it's Erica.
00:26:45Without her, I'd be dead ten times over.
00:26:59Thank you for saving the life of the emperor.
00:27:01I shall never forget your kindness.
00:27:03It was nothing.
00:27:04Please stand up, Commander Wood.
00:27:19Listen to my decree.
00:27:21We return to the capital at once.
00:27:28Ryan.
00:27:31You shall return with me.
00:27:36I obey your command, Father.
00:27:43Your highness.
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 who will treat everyone like family.
00:28:09As for Prince Ryan, the one you all admire, one 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 is destined for greatness.
00:28:50It seems Prince Ryan is destined for greatness.
00:28:57I remember our first few days at the estate of Prince Ryan.
00:29:00That blockhead always came to me for 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, his favorites, never dared to be so casual in the presence of our father.
00:29:45Do you have a secret for this?
00:29:48Not a secret at all.
00:29:50I just treat the emperor like any ordinary elder.
00:29:53Think of how commoners treat the elders in their family.
00:29:57And I treat the emperor the same way.
00:30:00I understand now.
00:30:11Ryan, what are you doing?
00:30:13When a father is in danger, a son belongs by his side to protect him.
00:30:26Having the trust and gratitude of the emperor and his heir.
00:30:30A life of luxury is surely guaranteed.
00:30:32They might even grant you the title of the official imperial fisher.
00:30:56Your Majesty!
00:31:04Why the panic?
00:31:07Prince Dylan has rebelled!
00:31:09The rebel forces have blocked every path to the capital.
00:31:12Prince Eden has proclaimed himself king.
00:31:21You treacherous sons!
00:31:23While I was away, is this how you guard the capital for me?
00:31:31I deserve death.
00:31:34Since the emperor was missing in the river, the factions in court have already splintered.
00:31:38Prince Dylan intends to seize the throne, while 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, I anticipated this.
00:32:02I took the tiger tally from the capital.
00:32:04Once we escape this place, we can summon the troops to crush the rebellion.
00:32:09Good.
00:32:10Good.
00:32:11Where is the nearest army?
00:32:13The Mountain City Army is three days away.
00:32:18Father, the rebels of Prince Dylan have sealed every road out of this fief.
00:32:21We cannot leave by land.
00:32:23Our only chance is to take the river.
00:32:28However...
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!
00:33:04My dear son!
00:33:08I shall protect the emperor and the prince with my life on our journey to the Mountain City Army.
00:33:13Sigh.
00:33:17Erica, please look at the situation.
00:33:27Fine, fine.
00:33:28Since we have come this far, I will see this through to the end.
00:33:30I always finish what I start.
00:33:32I will take everyone with me.
00:33:36Thank you, Erica.
00:33:38Thank you, Erica.
00:33:40Thank you, Erica.
00:33:43I am in your debt.
00:33:45Erika that boy is lucky indeed as a prince of the realm is he not a match for Erika
00:34:03with the virtue and skill of Erika any man would be blessed to have her I have

00:39:37the five of us escaped in total secrecy after leaving one man in the estate of Prince Ryan
00:39:42he posed as the emperor to distract the rebels in 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 and that is why they intensified the search
00:40:20what do you think you are doing you are not allowed to set up a stall here

00:43:25I am fine.
00:43:28Well, I am not fine!
00:43:43I am fine.
00:43:43Once he sets foot on land, he will be a formidable warrior once again.
00:43:46The prowess of the commander of the Imperial Guards is certainly not to be taken lightly.
00:43:50That's a constant fire!
00:43:53This took...
00:44:05banagle me down!
00:44:06No, I am not sure who can enter.
00:44:11They are gone unwilling to die too.
00:44:16Their walls are gosh甜imum.vilicias.
00:44:17he looks tiếp mac STAFF.
00:44:20Move! Board the boat immediately!
00:44:42Uncle Simon, go!
00:44:53Kill the lights!
00:44:54Kill the lights!
00:45:19Finally we are back on my turf.
00:45:38They are hiding right here! The prince said that their capture would bring a massive reward!
00:45:51Perica, 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!
00:46:34Ack!
00:46:43Ack!
00:46:53Oh, my God.
00:47:17What? What is that? Could 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?
00:48:29You 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!
00:49:51...
00:49:56...
00:49:57...
00:50:01...
00:50:11Charge! Charge! Soldiers, hear my command! Prince Dylan and Prince Eden have betrayed
00:50:18the throne! Treason of this magnitude shall find no mercy! Follow me to crush this rebellion
00:50:23to victory! To victory!
00:50:42The Emperor reclaimed the army. He struck the rebels at once. Loyalists rallied to the
00:50:47throne. They soon destroyed the power of Prince Dylan and Prince Eden. The Empire was secured
00:50:51again. Ryan was named the Crown Prince. With peace restored to the realm, the Emperor returned
00:50:56to the capital.
00:51:09Erica! Why did you choose to help me?
00:51:23So you figured out the truth after all.
00:51:33Eat, do not go hungry.
00:51:35Long ago, when I was begging with Grandfather, we passed through the territory you ruled.
00:51:38You 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
00:51:46and fought my way north. Armed with nothing but my skill in the water and a stubborn spirit
00:51:49that refused to break, I carved out a path through every hardship until I became the chief of
00:51:53the anchor crew. Our crew operates between light and shadow, which is why Simon and I
00:51:56often wore disguises. We posed as simple fishers and wine cellars just to seek out a few business
00:51:59opportunities. I never expected to save the Emperor by a mere chance. I did everything possible
00:52:04to keep him safe, waiting for the right moment to bring him to you. I only wanted him to
00:52:08see the truth for himself, to see a prince who truly serves the common people, and to see
00:52:12the perfect order you brought to this land.
00:52:16Everything that followed was quite unexpected. I never thought the road would be so dangerous.
00:52:20Even less did I think you'd lose your heart to me. Your Highness, you are destined to be a
00:52:27great leader in the future. Knowing 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, but it was not meant to last. Once, my only dream was to be a great ruler. I would
00:53:07lead
00:53:07the Empire with wisdom and bring peace to the people. But now, I wish that I were free to wander
00:53:14with the woman I 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 crew to become the greatest power in the world, while you must carry the weight
00:53:32of 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
00:54:11a noble house.
00:54:13I am the chief after all. Not some refined lady from a noble house.
00:54:39Judean.
00:54:57I am the chief after all.
00:54:57I have shells in the hospital as well.
00:54:58I really thought that you would follow that lad to the capital as empress.
00:55:10I 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?
00:56:07Chief! Chief! Look, 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! The future leader of our crew has the crown prince as his father.
00:56:34Who would ever dare to cross us now?
00:56:36Even the authorities will have to step aside for us.
00:56:48When the emperor and the crown prince returned to the capital,
00:56:50they 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
00:57:00is something I have already received.
00:57:19Chief! Something is wrong!
00:57:21The soldiers! The soldiers!
00:57:22They have surrounded the dock of our crew!
00:57:36Just when we finally found some peace,
00:57:38is it possible the remnants of Dylan and Eden have come back to haunt us?
00:57:50There is no need for panic.
00:57:52This river belongs to the Watsons.
00:57:55The
00:57:56and the
00:57:57and
00:58:20they
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.
00:58:32Your appetite must be quite poor.
00:58:35I searched the entire capital for this.
00:58:37Preserved ginger is a miracle cure for nausea.
00:58:45Quite a grand spectacle, your highness.
00:58:48Bringing ginger with the entire imperial guards.
00:58:50But, the crown prince has no place at this 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.
00:59:02I gave you my word, that I would protect you for life.
00:59:06Chopping wood and building fires is a skill I have truly mastered.
00:59:12Well, well! Do you all see this?
00:59:16The eye of our chief is truly sharp!
00:59:19The follow-up service is quite impressive!
00:59:22Even the scullery maid is delivered to the door!
00:59:25Ha ha ha ha!
00:59:36What are you waiting for?
00:59:37Since you are here to build fires, get to the backyard at once!
00:59:40Chop that pile of wet wood!
00:59:43Hey!
00:59:44I am going!
00:59:45What's going on?
01:00:15Your Highness, have mercy.
01:00:17This 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.
01:00:22At least give it a single glance.
01:00:24Can you not see that I am busy?
01:00:25The 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.
01:00:39To think the Crown Prince would perform such a chore.
01:00:41If this news ever reaches the capital, the old men of the censorate 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.
01:02:40You are a distinguished guest.
01:02:43But with that look, did you run away from home, or are you just slacking off on your duties?
01:02:56Who cares about that?
01:02:58In this world of ours, a good meal is the only thing that counts.
01:03:03What?
01:03:14Erika, I would like another bowl of rice.
01:03:17Drench 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, I have come up with a flawless plan.
01:03:46I 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 and walk right over to the inner
01:04:00palace 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.
01:04:10Life would be absolutely perfect.
01:04:19Your majesty.
01:04:21I am the leader of the anchor crew, not 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.
01:04:45If I move to the palace for comfort, do you expect them to pack their bags, enter the capital, and
01:04:50drain the national treasury?
01:05:04Father, the 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.
01:05:20I can handle the throne during the day and return to this dock every night.
01:05:26Sean rose fast enough for the trip, so I will not feel any exhaustion.
01:05:32Your highness, please show some mercy.
01:05:35If you travel back and forth like that, I am the one who will truly suffer.
01:06:09Your highness, your head is bleeding.
01:06:11You are injured, so 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 who will never grow a beard like my sons!
01:07:31She is so beautiful.
01:07:33Her features are truly delicate.
01:07:37She looks just like Erika.
01:07:39She is the perfect image of Erika.
01:07:40Fear my imperial decree!
01:07:41Every one of the anchor crew shall receive a full year of funds for fish stock.
01:07:45This reward will come from my private funds.
01:07:47Send another decree back to the capital.
01:07:48Let the entire nation celebrate!
01:07:50I want every subject of the empire to share the blessing of my granddaughter!
01:07:59Your majesty, a nationwide celebration?
01:08:02The court will surely fall into a total uproar.
01:08:06Let them fume then!
01:08:07As no one dares to oppose me!
01:08:09Send any who disagree to argue with me in person!
01:08:12Fume!
01:08:15Fume!

01:08:53Let the grand ship sail now!
01:09:02Look at our little chief here!
01:09:05Picking up the oar during her birthday rite!
01:09:07She has only just learned how to walk, yet she already wants to rule this river for her
01:09:10mother!
01:09:16Chief, prepare for the arrival of the emperor!
01:09:18The emperor has finally finished the court session!
01:09:20After reviewing the final tax report, he did not even stop to change out of the robe!
01:09:24He has already worn out three horses and is racing through the mountain pass right now!
01:09:33My sweetheart!
01:09:34My sweetheart!
01:09:36Bring the boat to the shore now!
01:09:37I have caught a massive fish!
01:09:39That silly father of yours is almost here!
01:09:41Tonight, we will all enjoy a feast of tofu and fish!
01:10:04Erica, the capital is far too suffocating!
01:10:07I have left all state affairs to the ministers so that I can stay here with you for two weeks!
01:10:12Well, I will handle the firewood tonight!
01:10:14I was once just a simple fisher on this river!
01:10:18With a single cast of my neck that year, I brought in the most precious catch of my life!
01:10:35My aunt sold me to the most vicious lone wolf hunter in pack for five silver coins!
01:10:41On the night of our mating ceremony, I sat on the edge of a broken bed, biting my lip!
01:10:46I'm a wolf-less omega orphan!
01:10:48And Cain?
01:10:49The pack says he's a curse!
01:10:50His parents abandoned him as a pup and never came back!
01:10:53They say he walked into the shadow woods alone at six, shift for the first time at twelve, and tore
01:10:59apart a full-grown shadow bear.
01:11:02The scar running from his brow to his jaw, that bear gave it to him.
01:11:06Everyone in the pack fears him. I did too. I crossed the street when I saw him. Never spoke a
01:11:12word to him. It's that I wondered to him. Never even looked him in the eye. I never thought my
01:11:16aunt would sell me to him. No gifts. No feast. I wore an old white dress and took shaky steps
01:11:23into his cabin. It smelled of blood and old fur. I didn't think I'd survive tonight. All I could hear
01:11:30was my aunt counting her silver.
01:11:31Don't blame me, Ella. You're lucky anyone would take you.
01:11:36I stood there like a fool, not knowing what to do. Until the door banged open. I gasped.
01:11:42His leather coat was slashed open across the ribs. The smell of his coat was slashed open across the ribs.
