The next morning, Lu tells the old man that he has heard that the princess from the night of the battle has been seriously wounded. He tells Lu to go back to the east district and tell the King to send some earls to investigate. He also tells him to make sure the princess does not get involved in the battle. The old man tells Lu that he is worried that the battle is going to turn into a battle between the night-souls and the mings. Lu tells him that night souls have been getting tougher lately, and that's why they're fighting. Lu says that the reason night souls are fighting is because hades has been afraid of them before. Lu then tells him about the battle taking place at the east gate. Lu thinks that the people fighting at the gate are from the city of night souls, and the reason for this is that the master of the city has been fighting with them. Lu points out that if the master had already been fighting in the city, it would have been meaningless for him to fight in the holy city. Lu asks Lu to carry him on his back.
