In the novel the general was assigned to do an expedition in another region. He’s back working for the emperor, but he’s no longer assigned in the capital. General returned the dragon carving they buried and left it outside MC’s quarter in the palace, but it was also his sign of good bye. MC and general never saw each other again. There’s more detail to this in the novel, but it’s the gist of it.
That's great but what happened to the general? Unlike other readers I don't really want him to end up with the MC just because I think he deserves better. He'll just be treated as the backup. We all know Yoo Young will never ever get rid of his love for the Emperor. That being said, the general can and deserves to be happy alone/with someone else. Ending up with the uke isn't the only way for someone to receive their happy ending. I want to see where he ends up because I know he poured his heart into every action he committed and was very genuine towards the MC.
