After Pyun had revealed each point of his scheme, the Empress was piqued by his lack of foresight for the overall situation in playing politics and strategies. Hence, the cranky Yū Miko further toyed with her brother as a cat would with an injured mouse.
And in those seconds where his breathing was suspended Pyun watched in horror as the antidote spun out of control. Yū Miko was on the point of letting the glass vial shatter on the floor, but changed her mind.
After time felt like an eternity, Pyun finally released his breath as she safely caught the vial in her hand, berating him: "You dumbhead! When one use his full intelligence he takes into account multiple perspectives rather than only a basic survivalist motivation. If the empire is a game of chess, playing chess is reigning the empire. But you played the game like an amateur, lacking observation, neglecting to maintain the overall situation, and sacrificing my most valuable piece. You are sabotaging me!"
