Mystic Bride Returns: Your Burial Gift Is My Crown - Episode 5

Prince Julian arrives unexpectedly at his family’s estate, commanding respect as he reveals he rescued Jane and returned her safely. Despite concerns about enemies targeting her, Julian insists on going to the palace himself to ask his father for permission to marry Jane, a merchant’s daughter. His advisors protest, arguing Jane lacks noble status and cannot support him politically or financially. Julian counters that Jane’s ability to break the empress’s curse makes her a unique ally. He chooses strategy over status, confident this marriage will help lower their enemies’ guard. The episode ends with Julian firmly resolved to proceed, despite objections.
