Unbeknownst to Imagase, Kyouichi's conscience came in three; White, Black & Grey. & I want to say Kyouichi always went with Grey who personified his indecisive (if it's not a problem now, then let's not worry 'til it is) & go with the flow character. It was beautiful to see how Grey changed:
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sojou_no_koi_wa_nido_haneru/mf/v01/c004/82/
It's the first time we see Grey take a stand & the fact that Kyouichi is wearing a matching shirt is no coincidence. Sensei is a genius! Let's take a moment and bask in the symbolism of it all~ Shall we?
When we see what's supposed to be the three again here:
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sojou_no_koi_wa_nido_haneru/mf/v01/c004/111/
We only see Black & White. Why? Because Grey & Kyouichi have become one:
http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sojou_no_koi_wa_nido_haneru/mf/v01/c004/112/
Meaning that Grey/Kyouichi is taking a big step in demonstrating his readiness for equal responsibility, if not greater due to Imagase's insecurities & preconceptions about him, in the relationship.
It was at this point that my feelings of frustration & anger towards Kyouichi washed away.
you explained this perfectly & beautifully! for so many years I have tried to tell 'kyouichi haters' this and failed, I will I had your comment to copy and paste everywhere <3
I WISH I had (not will lol)
I'm glad you feel the same way (▰˘◡˘▰) This is one of my all-time favorites because of the raw emotion that is felt throughout~
Symbolism is hardly found in manga, & there's even more to look back on, scrutinize, & admire in this piece.. so much that it makes my heart explode with happiness <3
If you wish, you may share as you please.
Apparently there's a character limit & the script I've prepared exceeds it (Two failed attempts at posting). So we'll do this in TWO batches~
EDIT: Turns out I spammed the place 'cause when I woke up there were like 5 repeat posts.. so I had to take the extras down.. I apologize to those who took the time to comment.. feel free to share your thoughts on this one since it's complete.
First & foremost; I ask that anyone willing to proof-read please do so in order to make sure the material comes across properly. Looking forward to the official translation, be it here or Lezhin (probably Lezhin for me).
& please disregard all of the grammatical errors.. there are so many o.o but I stopped caring.. I just wanted to get this up the soonest possible as promised for y'all >.<
Here you guys go~

Lucaon WHILE HOLDING ONTO KYON'S SHOULDER: (LSB) What is the reason? Answer me.
Kyon, WIDE-EYED: (KSB) .....
(KSB) I...,
Ryan, CUTS INTO THE CONVERSATION FROM BEHIND KYON & PLACES HIS HAND ON KYON'S SHOULDER: (RSB) He's scared.
(RSB) Ever since the recent attack against the mansion,
(RSB) He's been constantly anxious.
Lucaon: (LSB) ... Because of that?
(LSB) Anything else?
Ryan, ALL THE WHILE NOT BREAKING EYE CONTACT WITH KYON IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN A MATTER OF SUGGESTION: (RSB) It's like this. (What Ryan says here is incomprehensible to me.. but I believe it's about everyone who has left.. because the situation is bad & Kyon's thoughts about possibly leaving too. Please, anyone feel more than free to take the reigns on what Ryan says. I'm very curious to know~)
(RSB) Isn't that right?
Kyon, WHILE LOOKING DOWN: (KSB) .....
Lucaon: (LSB) Is that all?
(LSB) That's what you've been trying to tell me?
Kyon: (KSB) Right. It was just hard to do.
(KSB) And I...,
NOT ABLE TO LOOK LUCAON IN THE EYES, KYON CONTINUES, (KSB) Here, the shirt was torn as a result of the attack.
(KSB) The one given to me by Master.
(KSB) There was a lot of blood. I got rid of the blood stains, but the clothes were hurt. I can't return it back to you.
TURNING HIS BACK TO LUCAON, KYON STARTS TO WALK AWAY, (KSB) I'm sorry...
Lucaon, LEFT SPEECHLESS: (LSB) .....
(he's reaching out towards Kyon guys.. I'm in tears TT^TT )
(Second to last panel for this scene leaves us bearing witness to Kyon's profile. Tears welled up, lips trembling.. the last panel shows us Ryan, whose head is turned in sympathy towards Kyon.. saying nothing.. but surely thinking lots.. (though it isn't shared with we, the audience)
-- Cut Scene --
Cecilia: (CSB) Are you coming?
(CSB) It looks like you just came back from having a serious discussion.
FISTS CLENCHED, Lucaon: (LSB) It was not a big deal.
Cecilia: (CTB) It looks like his condition is worsening.
(CTB) I think he's worried that Kyon will quit
LOOKING BACK IN THE DIRECTION FROM WHICH LUCAON CAME,(CTB) .....
-- Cut Scene --
Kyon, VOICE TREMBLING: (KSB) But...,
(KSB) I can't say that.
DESPERATELY, WHILE CLUTCHING TO RYAN, TEARY-EYED, (KSB) Please help me.
(KSB) You can help me.
(Ryan only stares passively & rather apathetically.. taking in Kyon's desperation. -The reason I use apathetically here though it sounds rather harsh is because no matter how much Kyon may be against leaving the mansion.. & no matter how many points may be presented in favor of his staying.. Ryan has already decided that Kyon has to leave. It's not something up for discussion.. therefore he seems very indifferent to Kyon's cries for help-)
(KSB) I'll stay calm. And...
(KSB) If anything happens, I'll do whatever it takes
ANXIOUSLY, LAYING EVERYTHING BARE IN HOPES OF RECEIVING A POSITIVE SIGN FROM RYAN, (KSB) Whatever it takes.. to get rid of my master.
Ryan, CATCHING KYON BY HIS WRISTS: (RSB) Calm down, Kyon.
(RSB) This is not a matter of your own choosing.
(RSB) You're here right now..
IRRITATED, Kyon: (KSB) Don't be ridiculous.
(KSB) Aren't you giving up too easily?
BLACK TEXT, I'M ASSUMING KYON RAISES HIS VOICE HERE, (KSB) There must be a w-!
RYAN SILENCES KYON BY PLACING HIS HAND OVER KYON'S MOUTH..
CALM & COLLECTED, Ryan: (RSB) Stop. You're very agitated.
HAND STILL PLACED IN ORDER TO KEEP KYON SILENT, (RSB) Kyon, it's been a decade since Lucaon lost his family,
KYON IS KEPT MUTE, CLUTCHING ONTO THE HAND THAT'S CURRENTLY GRABBING HIM BY THE MOUTH.. (RSB) I thought he needed someone to comfort him after his disappearance.
(RSB) So Far I thought it would be a servant.
(RSB) But that is no longer what you simply are.
(RSB) I do not want to entertain the idea of the dangers that would come about at the risk of keeping you around,
RYAN LOOSENS HIS HOLD ON KYON (RSB) You talk about doing something,
KYON'S TREMBLING, (RSB) But I don't want to rile up Lucaon's trauma even more.
(RSB) You don't understand the situation between you & your master enough to act like you possess the strength needed to endure.
STONE-FACED, RYAN BOLDLY STATES, (RSB) If you insist on being obstinate , I'll drive you out of here.
KYON LOOKS BACK IN HORROR, (RSB) Do you understand?
-- Cut Scene --
(Kyon is running down the hall, he passes Cecilia without even the slightest glance her way. Cecilia only stares back in observance. -Putting two & two together here, Cecilia runs into Kyon after he dashes out from the room where Ryan is. Cecilia then goes inside.-)
WHILE COMING IN, Cecilia: (CSB) Are you afraid of him? <<<< This is more her talking to herself about Ryan possibly? I'm not really sure..>>>
-Unbeknownst to Cecilia, Ryan is found inside sitting on a chair.-
UPON REALIZING, Cecilia: (CSB) Oh..., Ryan.
DOOR AJAR
(CSB) Are you angry?
WAVING OFF, Ryan: (RSB) Not at all.
(CSB) You look irate.
(CSB) Don't put too much pressure on Kyon.
RYAN, PER HIS USUAL GENTLENESS SHOWN ON HIS PROFILE
(CSB) It wouldn't be the best for Lucaon right now to know that Kyon will be leaving here.
POSITIVE PROFILE, Cecilia, (CBS) If we put our heads together we will surely save Lucaon.
(CBS) So let's ease up a little.
Part two:
-- Cut Scene --
KYON & CECILIA'S SERVANT?? ARE HAVING A CONVERSATION IN THE HALL.
Kyon : (KSB) Are you going to work here?
<<<<I forgot this chick's name. Did they even tell us?? Welp.. we'll call her Phoebe..>>>>
STRAIGHT FACED, Phoebe (PSB) Yes. Since it takes time to gather the employees,
(PSB) I've come to help you first.
THE NEXT PANEL SHOWS A CLOSE UP OF PHOEBE'S EYE..
--START FLASHBACK--
CECILIA & PHOEBE ALONE
Cecilia: (CSB) It's been decided that Kyon will be leaving but it's going to take some time to implement.
(CSB) I want you to keep an eye on him for a while before you're assigned anything else.
(CSB) Since you're good at observation, I'm confident you'll do well. Do me this favor.~
(PSB) Yes.
--END FLASHBACK--
LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW, Phoebe, (PSB) The snow is here early.
(PSB) Because we're in the mountains it's colder up here.
KYON WALKS RIGHT PAST, NOT ACKNOWLEDGING PHOEBE'S ATTEMPT AT MAKING CONVERSATION. PHOEBE IS LEFT STARING AT A SOLEMN PROFILE FROM THE BACK.
<<<<<<<<<I JUST NOTICED KYON HAS LEFT EVERYONE STARING IN THIS CHAPTER SO FAR.. VERY DEPRESSING.. POOR GUY.>>>>>>>
--Cut Scene--
**(Cecilia through Phone) How's it going?
(PSB) Kyon hasn't allowed much to observe.
(PSB) He hasn't eaten much in these four days.. he stays in a constant state of absent-mindedness... & stumbles about his tasks.
(PSB) He's surprised by small sounds.. like the wind.. and doors.
PANEL SHOWS KYON HOLDING ON TO HIMSELF WHILE WALKING DOWN THE HALL.. UNSETTLED.
(PSB) It was great when we finally received a visitor <<SIHAN>> Thoough Kyon looked a little troubled..
(PSB) After speaking to him, he seemed more calmed.
(Cecilia through Phone) & Lucaon?
PANEL SHOWS LUCAON'S COLD GLANCES TOWARDS PHOEBE.
(PSB) Lucaon, he looks at me as if I were trash.
(PSB) Maybe it's because I'm a servant.
(Cecilia through Phone) Really? Is it bothering you?
(PSB) No. Its okay, but ...
(PSB) Master I'd like you to comer here today.
(Cecilia through Phone) To stay there?
CECILIA, working at desk (Cecilia through Phone) There's not much I can do there. I need to research what I can about Kyon.
(PSB) About Kyon...
KNIFE SHOWN, HOVERING OVER VEGGIES.
(PBS)I feel a little bad for him.
KYON, EXPRESSIONLESS HOLDS UP HIS FINGER. HIS EYES ARE EMPTY.
(PSB) Too...
(PSB) Quiet...
KYON ACCIDENTALLY? <<PLEASE DON'T BE SUICIDAL KYON>>> NIPPED HIS FINGER.
PHOEBE HEARS CONVERSATION FROM OUTSIDE DOOR** <<This is the end of the phone call>>
Sihan: (SSB) Kyon-- I'll be going back now.
KYON LOOKS TOWARDS THE DIRECTION OF SIHAN'S VOICE & CALM & COLLECTEDLY WALKS AWAY FROM THE CUTTING BOARD TO SEE SIHAN OFF.
--Cut Scene--
MANSION ENTRANCE, IT'S SNOWING
Kyon: (KSB) Sihan,
(KSB) Come back often.
(KSB) Please continue to be kind to Master.
PERPLEXED, Sihan: (SSB) Are you thinking about leaving here?
(SSB) It's hard, isn't it? You look pale...
(SSB) It must be hard to manage the house alone, but Lane (we found our girl's name) is here now.. so-
Kyon: (KSB) Go.
LOOKING SYMPATHETIC, Sihan: (SSB) .......
SIHAN TURNS & TAKES HIS LEAVE.
KYON STAYS OUTSIDE.. HANGING BY THE STEPS TAKING IN THE SNOW & HIS SURROUNDINGS.. LOST IN THOUGHT.
THE DOOR OPENS A SMIDGE.
VOICE: Come on in now.
VOICE: Beacuse it's cold..
KNOWING ALL TOO WELL WHO THIS VOICE BELONGS TO.. KYON TURNS TO FACE HIS MASTER.
KYON: (KSB) Master.
(KSB) I'll stop working here.
& that's all she wrote.. it doesn't read too well & lacks consistency in some respects of organization but I hope it gets the chapter across..
I know we all wanted Lucaon to be abandoned so that he could learn to appreciate Kyon more.. but seeing that's where we're heading.. & how much it's affecting both parties.. as well as the horrible circumstances leading up to Kyon's decision.. I don't want this. Let's just pray for a happy ending.. though the worst is still yet to come (ch.0)
Lastly.. Kudos to DaisiesAndLilies.. they have certainly perfected the art of scripting..As for me, I'll just stick to summaries.
Until next time~
Oh thank you
Thanks! !!!
Anytime :*
You're so very welcome~
thanks for your work
You're welcome~ :)
what about 36 &37? *tear
Chapter 36 is available here, & there's a summary for Chapter 37 in the comments.
Here's a link: http://www.mangago.me/home/mangatopic/2028525/
(KSB) Whatever it takes.. to get rid of my master. plesase can you explain meI didn't understand what kyon said to lucaon ?
I mean to ryan n is it to get rid of lucaon or edwin? how he can possible do that ! both are a pure royal blood.
What Kyon says here to Ryan is in reference to Edwin. He's thinking that Ryan can find a way out of this horrible situation & Kyon is offering all of himself to help. Whatever it takes may mean to get rid of Edwin or rid himself from Edwin's influence. Either/or perhaps even both. It's like a final plea 'cause Kyon understands that the safe way to handle everything would be if he simply left but he doesn't want to live without Lucaon.
& you're right. I don't think it'll be that easy to go after Edwin.. he has an army behind him ffs.. so Kyon may not understand the severity of the situation 100% like Ryan does.
it's winter and with kyon's memories are back I think it's at this time that kyon will cut the connection the tatto on his neck. I'm dying to know what lucaon will say or react to kyon decision to leave him...!
I'm having mixed feelings about the next chapter.. I want to know but then I don't. To be specific.. I want to know only if the outcome is positive but I don't want to know if the chapter is tragic. I'm hoping Lucaon doesn't allow him to leave.
I'll try to add a more detailed summary later if there isn't one already.
.
.
.
.
So basically Cecilia & Ryan agree on keeping Lucaon out of the loop about the reason behind Kyon acting strange. The extent of Edwin's influence over Kyon is still unknown; & with there being an emotional bond between Master & Servant it's much too dangerous for Kyon to remain by Lucaon's side. Cecilia dismisses herself to go to Lucaon's side. Ryan remains to call Kyon awake.
The discussion that Lucaon & Cecilia have isn't very important in my humble opinion but once I read the chapter again I'll include the details. They're just talking about how long she plans to stay, at Lucaon's subtle suggestion (to leave) & about how Lucaon is pretty much without support at the mansion.
Once Kyon comes to, Ryan explains that it's necessary for Kyon to leave the mansion. Kyon doesn't appear to be too fond of the idea but Ryan isn't making it a choice rather moreso a pointed ultimatum & demands Kyon's response.
Break scene, Kyon is starting off into space & Lucaon calls out to him asking why he's there. Kyon explains that Lucaon always takes this path at the given time & there something he wants to discuss.. Kyon's mind wanders again. He's thinking that he doesn't want to leave Lucaon but if he tells Lucaon he's afraid of being hated. Lucaon calls Kyon back from his thoughts.. & out of concern asks Kyon what's wrong. Kyon tried to deny there being anything wrong but Lucaon won't have it. He comments on the strange face Kyon has been wearing & demands, much like Ryan did earlier, that Kyon tell him the reason.
So yeah, there you have it. Ik it's very vague.. I'm sorry in advance. I'll try to make up for it later.
.
.
.
I'm worried. What if Kyon tells him everything and he gets mad at Kyon? Maybe that's the reason why Lucaon is so cruel to Kyon in the prologue.
Here's my take with footnotes & everything lol:
As nice as Ryan may be, he is not going to stand for Kyon's reasoning & allow him to stay at Lucaon's side(1). Kyon, unable to go against Ryan alone(2), is either forced to resign or face whatever action prepared by Ryan. Lucaon hasn't given Kyon the confidence needed to tell all, despite his demand, therefore I think it highly unlikely for Kyon to surprise everyone(3) & do exactly that, tell all. The next chapter will be interesting because I also don't count on Kyon being ready to discuss his resignation with Lucaon just yet. Meanwhile Ryan, Kyon & possibly even Cecilia need to address the fact that, if I'm not mistaken, Kyon is currently branding the Intron logo in a not so easy place that can be hidden. With the way Lucaon has handled Kyon in the past, it's only a matter of time before Lucaon discovers the truth if left alone.
(1) Lucaon's safety takes priority over his happiness.
(2) In a situation where Kyon & Ryan are opposed & Lucaon were to get involved, Ryan would be favorite in Kyon's eyes since Lucaon has never made Kyon's worth known.
(3) Though Kyon has done surprising/unexpected things in the past so I may be mistaken here.
(4) The Selvior logo shows up on Kyon once again in chapter 1. The how & when being currently unknown. I also look forward to finding out who is responsible for returning it to Selvior. The only parties directly involved would be Edwin & Lucaon. & The only parties able to make an illusion would be Ryan & Cecilia as I highly doubt that they would further involve more people (Sihan).
Knowing Kyon I am sure he'd leave if it's for his masters happiness, but then again what about the prologue scene where Lucaon is quite abusive to him? Is it a thing from the past, that happened or a thing that will still happen? I just can't see Lucaon reverting back to his cruel side - except if smth major happens. But if it'd involve ultron, why is he keeping Kyon by his side at that given moment. It'd make no sense. Perhaps rather this being Lucaon it might be his other master after the failed mission? Hm..
Yay, a kind soul to share theories with~ Thank you for responding :3
No doubt, the man with Kyon in the prologue looks like Lucaon.. we haven't yet seen him with a cane so we all assume those chapters take place in the future after sh*t hits the fan.. & the Selvior logo is on Kyon's neck in those chapters. Like you said, it would mean that Lucaon would have to have been aware of the circumstances between Kyon & Edwin.. so why keep Kyon at his side? A comrade from another topic wrote about Cecilia's comment towards Lucaon's eyes taking on a deeper red.. & hypothesized it being related to the state of affairs with Kyon at the moment. If we take on that theory, it would mean that keeping Kyon at his side no matter the stakes would prove to be very necessary in maintaining his own sanity.
After all both have been through, especially the character development in Lucaon alone, it sucks that things will get worse.. but it's something that's in the back of everyone's head when something remotely fluffy happens. I'm just hoping that as with any other prologue, things do in fact get better for this couple in the long run.
Hello, thank you for your translation. I hope I'm not bothering but can you translate chapter 38 as well?
Most definitely~ I've been out all day but once I get home I'll get right to it :3

Ch. 1 shows Kyon trying to break his connection through the link but it's not the Intron logo that's currently on Kyon's nape. I wonder how Lucaon's logo managed to show up in place of Intron. & since that's the case.. why would Kyon want to remove it? Or maybe he breaks the Intron link & Lucaon's appears?? The wheels just keep spinning.
I'm really curious as to why Edwin deliberately chose to cultivate Kyon as a weapon even though he's a servant , he possesses plenty of mixed bloods that he can cultivate as a weapon since mixed bloods are stronger.
The intron has something to do with Lucaon’s parents death , kyon was a former servant in the intron , he attacked Lucaon (either unintentionally or hypnotized that is unclear ) the conclusion is the same Lucaon being near Kyon is dangerous so here is the probable options
1- Kyon is an intentional weapon so he leaves to not hurt Lucaon
2- Lucaon will know Kyon was a former servant and Kyon will know the intron killed the selvior so kyon leaves
well the last chapter declare a lit bit of the probable future events aside from the intron and that talk we will see a drama where Lucaon realize his feelings for Kyon but Kyon start avoiding him and at some points he leaves so we can see them chasing after each other
Maybe because Lucaon saved Kyon when he wad a child. I don't like that Edwin guy and are you sure Kyon is a half blood ?
in chapter 33 when the intron logo show it was just aflush back of his memory , and it show to us in ch 34.
I meant that Edwin possesses a lot of mixed blood servants , Kyon is human or should I say servant (?)
Okay, so I'm legit going on withdrawal. I was so happy come lunch break because today marks the tenth day that Royal Servant gets uploaded onto Lezhin/ko & it's not there!! I'm on break now & it's STILL not there..（/TДT)/
...
I don't know what I'm going to do with my life rn.
I'm hoping it'll get uploaded later even though they usually upload everything before 10:30 a.m. ET. Heck, I'll even take tomorrow but please don't let me go another 10 days.. I need this webtoon in my life ╥﹏╥
Sorry to break it to you but May has 31 days so it's not June 2 in SK yet but June 1 lol. You have to wait one more day for the new chapter to be uploaded on Korean Lezhin.
I was waiting anxiously in my seat for the new chapter but it didn't update ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
Still better than waiting another 10 days or waiting a whole other break in between seasons :3 I think ik what you mean. I noticed now that it's 3 chapters every month starting on the 1st. Gotcha~ so tomorrow's the promised date <3 My withdrawal will just have to wait until then, lol.
I feel you.. we'll just have to wait patiently for tomorrow~
Btw, thank you for taking time to explain this to me. I'm still trying to wrap my head around what you said. So Royal Servant is uploaded every 10 days starting from the 2nd of every month (the 1st here in the states because of the 13 hr. time zone difference). Am I understanding correctly? I just need to make sure before I attempt to correct the reminders I have on my phone :P Thanks in advance~
You're welcome! Royal Servant (Korean version) is uploaded on the 2nd, 12th, and 22nd of each month. So you just have to remember that the dates end with number 2. It doesn't necessarily mean once every 10 days, 'cos the number of days we have is different every month.
Late February/early March must be hell for the writers LOL
Thanks again~ The update is there :3
Can I just say?

How heartbreaking it was to read this chapter? Lucaon starts to avoid Kyon (Ryan warns Lucaon that if he (Lucaon) continues to interact with Kyon the way he is, Kyon will end up hurt.) So Lucaon, rather than explaining things to Kyon, cuts him off cold-turkey & starts to avoid him. He even has another servant take care of his quarters when Kyon was the one in charge before. Kyon tries to reach out to Lucaon and ask if he did anything to make him mad & Lucaon just dismisses the thought without a proper answer & asks Kyon to leave the office. Life in the mansion continues as it normally would, we follow Kyon as he goes about his daily duties, interacting with servants, reprimanding them where necessary, but it is left plain to see Lucaon's absence affect him.
Before reading the chapter I realized Kyon has never initiated a kiss (Lucaon hasn't either but he's the one that holds the reigns in their sexual relationship). Kyon bumps into Lucaon while he's carrying bed sheets into/out of the room, Kyon starts to apologize but notices Lucaon on the bed unbothered. Curious, since he has never seen a sleeping Lucaon, Kyon draws closer & our brave soul goes for a tender kiss.
We then follow Lucaon's version of that day, & I honestly felt bad for him on one occasion where we see the servants avoid any contact out of fear/intimidation. I realize Lucaon is alone in that mansion (minus the time he may spend with Ryan), & the feeling of emptiness dawns on me. We find that Lucaon is purposely avoiding Kyon when he spots him cleaning from a distance, turns his gaze & leaves the area, leaving a hurt & confused Kyon. No interaction. TT-TT
At the end of a busy day, Lucaon lays down on his bed & we catch up to the part where our brave Kyon goes for the kiss. Lucaon's eyes start to open, Kyon's already open eyes become larger in surprise. Lucaon starts to reach his hand to Kyon's cheek but Kyon draws away. There is no contact guys, not between hand to cheek or between lips TT-TT. Kyon is nervous/scared (he doesn't want the situation between them to get any worse), & he immediately leaves the room.
Lucaon is left staring at his bedroom ceiling.. & the chapter closes with his thinking, "I didn't tell you to leave"
So far the majority of what we've seen is Lucaon & Kyon interact with each other, to have a chapter such as this one where everything outside of their relationship is still a buzz inside of the mansion (interactions between servants, Ryan & Logan as jolly as ever) highlights the lack thereof between our star characters. Prepare a tissue for this one. I can only hope the next chapter proves to heal my broken heart & that of our beautiful pair.
Thank you so much.
You're so very welcome~
Thanks it's so frustrated to see Lucaon avoiding Kyon and hurting him, at least he didn't reject him after the kiss :)
I feel you. It's just that Lucaon doesn't communicate with Kyon.. I'm sure his thoughts are in the right place but ffs at least make the other person aware of your intentions!! I'm not sure Lucaon understands that he can avoid Kyon getting hurt by starting to 'make love' to him. But our Lucaon hasn't grown enough as a character to get to that stage.. If only he knew that he's hurting Kyon by keeping that distance between them.. This trope is so common in BL but I'd never felt/understood it as much as this chapter. MasterGin is indeed a genius~
Just when their hearts were growing closer to each other too.. :'(
Thank you. I bought the chapter but I can't read Korean.
Thank you.
You're welcome :3
& how very sweet of you to do that~
You're so very welcome~ Looking forward to the proper translation :)
Hi, first of all thank you for the summary it was really nice to look at the raws and be able to tell what was going on with your summary XD
Also i shared your summary with other people and they really wanted to thank you i made sure to tell them it was not my summary but yours. But I really should have asked before I did that sorry about that.
An apology isn't necessary though it's very much appreciated :)
I cannot guarantee the summary being 100% spot on (I'm still a beginner) but it shouldn't be far from the mark either ;)
I was concerned that it wouldn't reach a large audience, since topics get sent to the bottom as others take their place; so share to your heart's content on here or other places. I don't mind in the least :3
Thank you so very much Master Green Emerald! Hugs and kisses
Thank you so much!! But I have one thing I noticed when Lucaon was supposed to touch Kyon's cheeks. If we look closely at his fingers, it was like he wanted to touch Kyon but hesitated at the end (that's why the closed fingers) and because of maybe shame and hurt, poor baby Kyon run out of the room. This chapter is seriously breaking my heart! T_T
Thank you for your compliment, though I'm far from dominating the Korean language
(づ￣ ³￣)づ
I always wait for your summary of the Korean. Thank you so much!! Btw, don't you think Lucaon knows the first time Kyon stolen a kiss from him? Looks like he is very much awake. Bastard Lucaon, so coward!! Haha!
Yes, so many feelings that we haven't seen before were felt by both parties, Lucaon especially. I'm hoping they make up the next chapter. Guess we'll just have to wait~
I love reading other points of view, I thought Lucaon closed his hand after seeing Kyon draw away from him but it definitely would make sense that Kyon would leave for that reason & it is expected for Lucaon to hesitate since he's battling with the feelings Kyon provokes in him.Thank you so much for sharing~
You're so very welcome~ There's another individual who posts as anonymous & translates off of the Chinese version. I like to read theirs because it helps me understand more of what I may have missed :3
& Yes, I thought the same exact thing. So we're just going to pretend that we didn't see him up & awake just a panel ago? If it gets us that kiss I don't mind Lucaon acting like he's asleep but ffs you can't just open up your eyes in the very moment that Kyon is working up the courage to steal a kiss!!
May I ask what was Kyon doing with those suitcases ? ;O
People have been saying that kyon wants to leave ( with the suitcase thing) is that true??? I can't read korean... Btw thanks for the summary!!!
Yes! Sorry for not explaining it. It seems Kyon hadn't completely moved his stuff into the mansion so that's what he was doing. Logan ran into him & misunderstood asking if Kyon had finally gotten fired & Kyon cleared it up for him. Logan said usually people run away from the mansion because it's difficult living there but Kyon was getting more comfortable~
You're most welcome & thank you for your question~
No reason to worry :3 You see, Kyon hadn't moved all of his stuff into the mansion when he started working there so that's what he was doing. Logan caught sight of the situation & asked Kyon if he finally gotten fired (how rude) & Kyon explained things properly. Logan then made a comment towards Kyon that usually servants run from that place but for Kyon it was the opposite.
Seeing as this is worrying several, I shouldn't have neglected it. My deepest apologies.
Ahhh i seee and no need to apologize bro! Thanks for the clarification tho!!! I almost die when I thought he was gonna leave! Hahhahahaha
OMG YOU'RE THE WATER TO MY OASIS HAHAHA THANK YOU VERY MUCH! NOW I UNDERSTAND CH.31
Again, I apologize in advance. My understanding of the Korean language is far from perfect. Patiently waiting with the rest of you for a proper translation to come out~
I would recommend that you read this while looking at the raws, it'll help make up for what I may lack in imagery.

Ryan casually asks Lucaon if he saw what happened. Lucaon glares back & asks, 'What the hell is this?' Ryan then questions why Lucaon would even ask if he should've already heard from Logan that he (Ryan) & Kyon were together. Ryan is unable to finish his statement because Kyon, very pissed, gives him a slap to the face. Lucaon can only stare, probably in shock or astonishment towards Kyon's action. Poor Kyon hurries away leaving Ryan & Lucaon together by themselves. In the next panel I believe Lucaon questions whether Ryan actually kissed Kyon & Ryan's answer is, 'Well, not really.'
Cut scene, Kyon is walking down the hall while having a conversation in his head. He's basically a little confused still about why what happened, happened. Putting into consideration that Lucaon was witness to the scene, although Kyon wasn't aware of Lucaon's approach Ryan on the other hand would have been able to detect this. So Kyon is pretty much questioning why Ryan would dare do something so risque, what's the motive?
Anyway, cut scene, & poor Kyon.. probably because of how lost in thought he is runs right back into Lucaon. Kyon calls out to his master & Lucaon calls back saying, 'You're back'. Ryan then announces his leave but is immediately stopped short by Lucaon who states that he isn't finished with their conversation. Ryan instructs Lucaon to question Kyon instead of only questioning him (Ryan).
Another cut scene, (All of this is too confusing to follow, wasn't Kyon with Lucaon & Ryan just a few moments ago?? Like we don't even see any white blocks that usually announce a time skip or memory. I kind of feel like it may have just been Kyon recalling what happened after the 'kiss' but I'm pretty sure he ran off right after he slapped Ryan. It's up for discussion if anyone can share their interpretation it's much appreciated. Moving on...) Kyon is cursing in his thoughts while walking in the hall wondering what he should tell Lucaon. Kyon runs into Logan who catches him. Logan asks Kyon why he's in such a hurry & Kyon stares back at Logan momentarily. Logan is slapped by Kyon who recalls his being responsible for the RyanxKyon misunderstanding that he now has to worry over clearing up with Lucaon.
Cut scene, In Lucaon's bedroom Kyon starts to realize that Ryan wanted to get a reaction out of Lucaon. Kyon hears laughter coming from outside.
We see Ryan & Lucaon walking together, Lucaon hardly paying any mind to Ryan from the looks of it. Ryan comments on how Kyon is hiding in Lucaon's bedroom & calls Kyon cute. Demonstrating irritation, Lucaon voices for Ryan to leave him alone, he'se being too noisy & Lucaon asks for some space. Ryan gladly leaves, a hand to his arm thinking back on how hard Lucaon's pressure was before.
Side bar, Ryan asks Logan if everything is okay. Logan can only hold on to his nose explaining that the blood won't stop.
Now in the bedroom, Lucaon tells Kyon to be at ease, bullseye on Kyon's mind racing at thousands of miles per second. His command being that Kyon ask for permission in the future before leaving. After hearing Kyon's consent to his order, Lucaon starts to leave but Kyon grabs hold of his wrist, Kyon's thoughts as to why Lucaon isn't questioning him at all. Kyon instead is the one to explain that the scene was all Ryan & that he & Ryan aren't in fact an item. Lucaon only acknowledges the statement, without further comment.
Kyon catches Lucaon by the wrist again & Lucaon questions Kyon's desperate advances. Kyon explains that he feels a little nervous. Not getting further explanation, Lucaon instructs Kyon to stop beating around the bush & get on with it already (He really says, Do not irritate, I'm confused. but that didn't really make much sense to me. Lucaon is pretty cut-dry & to the point but we'll see when the translation comes out.) Get on with it he does, Kyon seems to say something that I don't understand but Lucaon seems to like. Lucaon pulls Kyon close towards him & places his lips on Kyon's neck. Mind you, they're in the hallway so Kyon is like, stop, wait.. blah blah. Anyway, Kyon becomes slack against Lucaon & gets carried off to Lucaon's bedroom where he's placed on the bed. Y'all really need to look at the raws 'cause you see how careful Lucaon is when he lays Kyon down <3
On the bed, Kyon notices that he can't make even the slightest movement (trying at his fingers) & realizes that he possesses no power in his body while Lucaon starts to unbutton his shirt. Kyon feels it & noticing this Lucaon tenderly places a hand to Kyon's cheek, asking him not to cry. Concerned, Lucaon then moves another hand over Kyon's shoulder & states that it may have been hurt before. He looks to Kyon & asks whether or not he is hurt though the injury doesn't look like it would bruise. Kyon starts to react more & Lucaon's eyes take it all in while his hand grabs hold of Kyon's buckle making it shatter.
& that's all she wrote, for now. I hope this helps :3 I felt flutters all day at work, hope you guys enjoyed~
Thank you thank you thank you so so so much and omg I can't believe kyon slapped ryan and logan I feel kinda bad for ryan really can't wait for the update
kyon returned to talk to lucaon that's what i understood.
thanks for that. i love you!
Thank you so much!!!
Looks to me like Lucaon is about to blow job Kyon based on how he impatiently broken Kyon's belt. Poor belt, the only one left that he has. The rest all broken by his master. Haha
Thank you for your feedback, that makes a lot of sense :3 Poor baby was probably disheartened when he saw Ryan & stormed off again. So cute <3
Here I was worried that Lucaon's would beat on Kyon & not necessarily Ryan.. but yeah I'm pretty sure Kyon shocked all of us :3
It's only something to last until the proper translation comes out, I'm glad it helps :) You're always welcome
No problem, it's always a pleasure :) Looking forward to the proper translation :3
In lucaon's room when lucaon came in i think he said that kyon looked better than expected( probably because of how angry kyon was just now) , and then command kyon to inform him before he goes out.
After kyon said that he is nervous and therefore grabbing on to lucaon, lucaon said not to agitate him or he will get angry. So kyon was saying "..since when did you started warning me that you will get angry"( probably because whenever lucaon got angry he just gets rough idk why kyon said that) and then lucaon just smirk to what kyon said and grab him.
As to why kyon asked lucaon to stop i think its because lucaon is sucking up kyon,s energy judging by how kyon when slump and couldn't lift a finger
You're a lifesaver!! Thank you so much <3 I have such a hard time understanding what they say sometimes & end up making it out to be what I want it to be in my head instead. Lucaon is so sweet!! He's starting to place Kyon into consideration, & Kyon is becoming more & more bold.
Lucaon was being such a dick previously i didnt realise that he was actually being considerate of kyon when he said he will be angry
Lucaon was being such a dick previously i didnt realise that he was actually being considerate of kyon when he said he will be angry your point of view has helped me understand better too
Yeah, it was definitely messed up that he had Ryan come in to the office while Kyon was giving him head. I realized that he did it to show Kyon that he doesn't care who falls witness to their exchanges, in the end it won't change a thing. Lucaon's pushed it a little far with the offer he made to Ryan though.. I still can't wrap my head around that one.. my heart was hurt just reading it & Ik its fiction but I can't even imagine how Kyon must've felt..
thanks for the summary ^^ but when did kyon get hurt ?
Yeah T_T. But im sad lucaon didnt get kyon's first kiss
They didn't kiss :P So Lucaon still has the chance.
Kyon look like he was rubbing his mouth tho. But if they really didnt im happy as hell
Towards the end of ch. 27 Lucaon's didn't discrimate when he sent that shot of electricity. It made Ryan back off of Kyon & slammed Kyon against the wall his shoulder absorbed the shock from the blow.
I don't think they kissed either, but I may have misunderstood.. Your thoughts were the same as mine at the end of ch. 27. I was so upset that Ryan stole the kiss that should've been shared between Kyon & Lucaon （￣へ￣）
On another note, I think I finally understand why Lucaon offered Kyon up to Ryan. Mind you, the delivery could've been better but I think Lucaon was just annoyed at the fact that Ryan was butting in saying, it'll wear out. Like it's none of your business or are you saying you're interested sort of thing, you know? Poor Kyon was the one hurt in the end though.. I mean the guy pretty much displayed regret when he asked Kyon not to cry anymore.. so that was kind of sweet..
I guess lucaon is lacking proper social skills after not interacting for so long
I like how Kyon just ran out of fucks to give and then proceeded slap Ryan and punch Logan (=・ω・=)
Yes, I believe you're right. Kyon's having him feel things he's not felt in a long time <3
He definitely took everyone by surprise with that one. Good thing he did, no telling what Lucaon would've done otherwise.
Maybe Kyon couldn't really move because the strength in his body left from Lucaon getting energy from him like here http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/royal_servant/uu/royal_servant-chapter-19/9/
(=・ω・=)
No doubt, that's what happened :3
Lucaon is a sly devil ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
I'm just thinking about how all of this will lead up to the first chapters >.< So many questions..
Why does Kyon so desperately want to escape, even at the cost of harming (cutting the servant choker) himself?
Why does Kyon end up chained to Lucaon's bed?
What are Lucaon's feelings towards Kyon while all of this is happening?
What are Kyon's feelings towards Lucaon while all of this is happening?
With the recent developments we can clearly see how Kyon is starting to take space in Lucaon's thoughts, possibly even heart but since it's going to lead up to the first chapters anyway I'm just wondering about the kind of events that take responsibility.
I've read up to what's available on Lezhin Ko, in summary:
*Fair warning in advance, my Korean is nowhere near good. I always come back here to read the translated content once it's available. I apologize since some things will turn out completely different.
Ch. 26 Spoiler:
Logan questions why Kyon is wearing Lucaon's shirt & Kyon simply states that the shirt is not his master's but his own, recalling the night before when Lucaon asked him to wear the shirt.
Fast forward, we see Ryan standing in the hall outside of Lucaon's office with the bottle he took from Logan (possibly looking for Lucaon's company in which to share the bottle)
Cut scene, there's a knock at Lucaon's door, to which Lucaon answers for Ryan to come in; Kyon who is inside with Lucaon seems rather alarmed by this. Ryan walks towards Lucaon's desk & catches sight of the events taking place from underneath the desk on the opposite side (we see Kyon with Lucaon in his mouth) Ryan realizing this, makes a comment that I honestly don't comprehend, all this while Lucaon shoves Kyon's head to take more of him. Ryan then explains his reason for being there (gesturing at the bottle in his hand) explains that Lucaon is having a better time, & apologizes for interrupting.
Lucaon seems to ask Ryan if he would like to try it, Kyon stares up at Lucaon in disbelief. Ryan laughs it off, but asks what would happen if he does. Lucaon responds only with a glare. Ryan departs explaining that they will share a drink later & that Lucaon enjoy his time.
Lucaon & Kyon are once again alone & Lucaon comments on the terrible job Kyon is doing. Kyon then continues to take Lucaon deeper into his mouth until finishing (I think), choking back tears but failing as some fall to the floor. Lucaon realizes but doesn't seem concerned at all (I can't understand what he says, though it's probably not heartfelt.)
Kyon calls out to his master, explaining that the offer made a few moments ago was just too much. Lucaon asks if Kyon wouldn't want to before burying his face onto Kyon's neck. Lucaon says some more things I can't understand (I really need to study Korean more （/TДT)/ ) & Kyon ends up asking if he (Kyon) & Ryan would get involved with eachother would Lucaon be okay with that. Lucaon answers by questioning whether Kyon wants to get involved with Ryan. Kyon flips, shouting before repeating the same statement, Lucaon must not mean what he says & knowing (I think because Lucaon knows how important he is to Kyon) why would he entertain the idea (the offer with Ryan). Lucaon gently helps Kyon back up & tenderly asks him to stop crying. Kyon starts bawling & Lucaon puts a hand to Kyon's cheek in an attempt to comfort him, a moment passes as they stare into each other's eyes. The next shot is of Kyon gaze, love pouring out. This startles Lucaon, lifting his hand away from Kyon's cheek as he balls it into a fist. Shoved, Kyon is asked to leave. Confused, Kyon starts to call out to his master but thinks better of it. He leaves the room silently leaving Lucaon lost in thought.
Ch.27 Spoiler
Ryan & Sihan pay a visit to the mansion where they hold a meeting with Lucaon. Noticing that Sihan won't be having a drink, Lucaon questions Sihan's glare. I'm so confused with what Sihan tells Lucaon next but I believe it goes somewhere along the lines of initially having wanted to ask Lucaon to come over to his mansion to talk, thinking better of it he decided on going to Lucaon instead & I think something is said about instructing Lucaon not to show his face to Chris (Sihan's beloved) again (basically not to show his face again at Sihan's place). Lucaon questions whether his servant, Chris, had anything to do with it. Sihan simply corrects him by addressing Chris as his lover. Lucaon mutters about Sihan's sensitivity while staring at his drink, to which Ryan explains that Sihan is captivated. Ryan's attention then turns to Sihan, explaining that he had meant to drink the bottle with Lucaon earlier but Lucaon was playing with something else. Sihan, completely appalled, repeats verb play & noun Lucaon in question. Ryan confirms by stating Kyon was in Lucaon's company. Sihan repeats in question once more. Someone asks if Kyon is standing outside. Sihan goes out to meet Kyon, asking why he is standing there. Taking Kyon by the hand, Sihan guides Kyon into the room & invites him to sit next to him. Seeing this, Lucaon orders Sihan let go of Kyon. Sihan stares back lost while Lucaon orders Kyon to leave the room. Sihan answers Lucaon upset over the fact that Kyon is getting kicked out but he quietly sits down still lost over Lucaon's reaction. Meanwhile, Ryan is nearly keeling over the table in laughter; Lucaon seriously asks him to stop.
Cut scene, Ryan does the complete opposite. In summary Ryan asks Kyon to go out shopping with him. Kyon refuses but ends up consenting when Ryan convinces him that he can take advantage of the opportunity to buy Lucaon a gift for his birthday which is conveniently tomorrow. Logan sees them leaving together & he questions whether they may be into each other.. he even entertains the idea of Ryan & Kyon having shared a woman the night of the glass shattering (because he doesn't realize the one moaning that night was not a woman, but Kyon.)
Cut scene, Lucaon becomes aware of Kyon's absence. He leaves his office, & calls out for Logan to explain Kyon's whereabouts. Logan explains that Kyon & Ryan left together & questions why Lucaon has been so interested in Kyon as of late. Lucaon is shocked, Logan notices. Adding to the fire, Logan shares that he believes both Ryan & Kyon are dating because they are so cheerful when together. Lucaon processes the information in complete silence.
Cut Scene, Kyon asks Sihan whether he would have any good gift ideas he may share for Lucaon. After explaining that Lucaon's birthday isn't until winter comes, we find that Ryan's birthday will be in fact tomorrow.
Cut Scene, Kyon & Ryan are walking together; Kyon seemingly upset. Kyon questions Ryan's motives, Ryan explains that it was simply an excuse for Kyon to go out for a moment. Logan bumps into them & explains the contents of his earlier conversation with Lucaon & how he shared his theory on their relationship. Logan gives a thumbs up in approval of their relationship. Kyon tries desperately to understand what Logan is saying or clear up the misunderstanding. Logan leaves Kyon standing next to Ryan. Kyon contemplating whether he is now unemployed. Ryan explains that Kyon can deny if Lucaon were to question him, but after further thought says it would be better left as is ( the wheels already turning in his plot to make Lucaon jealous). Ryan reaches to caress Kyon's face while he looks for agreement, Kyon is so lost but hesitantly says yes while Ryan leads him against the wall.
Everything else speaks for itself, yes?
OMG thank u <3
No problem :3 I just hope I'm not too far off in translation.
Clarification: The reason Kyon uses Lucaon's shirt is because his was ruined because of the ice cream. It was only that Lucaon didn't mind/care for Kyon wearing it so Kyon went ahead & borrowed it.
If I find any more I'll be sure to let y'all know. I did some of this off of memory & it seems I may have gotten carried away with how I would've liked things to go.
One minor note, Chris is Karis* I forgot about Christoph for a minute & didn't want anyone to get confused or go anal on me >.<
WOAH
THANK YOU SO MUCH SENSEI!! （/TДT)/
thank you so much for taking your time out to write all these <3
You're always welcome (⌒▽⌒)
Thank you so much for making an effort to explain the plot till now!!!
My stupid self neglected to connect the charger to my laptop & it died mid-explanation. I swear I lost a few years of my life in that moment. Thankfully everything was still here when I came back on :D
I gave it my all! :3
I came across a link here for both chapters in Spanish. Since I'm fluent I'll translate them when I have time after work/errands if no one else gets to them before me. Look forward to it~
I'll be updating this topic with the script later, please continue posted.
--UPDATED--
There exists a kind soul who's uploaded already; to upload another, being that theirs is close to perfection, would not only be anal of me but also disrespectful (imo) to be quite frank.
I've taken their advice, however, & took liberty in commenting only on parts where they seemed unsure.
Please show/give them your support/infinite praises:
