Elsewhere, Park Jin talks about Master Lee’s exit with Heo Yeom, as well as the ice stone’s apparently unknown location. The Crown Prince is unsure that such a “bold” person would get scared enough to flee, though, only to end up further confused by the sudden appearance of Seo Yul and Dang-gu, who are also looking for the in-demand former assassin.Īfter a stuttered explanation on why Cho-yeon decided not to craft the wedding rings, in addition to Yul’s admission that he too saw the same illusion as the royal sat before them (although his is based around the fact that he longed for his former love interest), Jang Uk arrives, confused. We also see the false accusation Cho-yeon levelled at Mu-deok over the broken yin-and-yang jade, allowing for the servant to be locked up in the annex. This then leads into the ending of the last episode, with the the four seasons of Daeho called to Jinyowon to discuss the missing maid. So he instructs his servants to search for whatever had entered the palace, wondering why it looked like the woman he has an interesting relationship with. Knowing she has been caught, the possessed Mu-deok disappears back into the mirror, leaving the Crown Price entirely shocked. The strange actions of Mu-deok do not manage to avoid suspicions though, as before long the Crown Prince asks who this person in front of him is because there is a distinct lack of “filth.”

As he continues airing his grievances to himself, the assassin appears in front of him, knowing that he has been thinking of her. “That impudent girl,” he says, believing that her filth must have gotten on him because of the stench of cinnamon emerging from the drink on his table. Reflecting on the rejection he faced from Mu-deok, the young royal is frustrated, vocalising his annoyance at her lack of gratefulness. “They sit there waiting for an opportunity to come out into the world again,” the Master explains, as we cut to the Crown Prince.

There, he collects a relic “cursed with sorcery” from a child, and ensures that it ceases to exist, surprising the kids once more who are aware of the peculiar items “made with the power of the ice stone” in Jinyowon. In the present, this story is being regaled by Master Lee, who is fascinating children with the tale on a ship. Alchemy of Souls season 1, episode 7 recap Eventually, the conflict is ended by Master Seo Gyeong, the founder of Songrim, who possessed the Soul Ejector. “Eventually, that boundless power ended up causing chaos,” we hear as scenes of the battle of mages continue to play. Next, we see a representation of how powerful this powder is, with its abilities to bring the dead back to life by summoning back their souls, shift souls from one body to another, or expel the soul of a living person by stealing their energy.
