Chapter 189 Getting to the Point
Jean listened, only half–paying attention.
The other members introduced themselves-
One went by Silver, another by Aqua…

Jean didn’t make an effort to memorize them. Though she nodded politely, she didn’t retain a single name. In one ear, out the other.
None of them, clearly, were people she needed to focus on.
Of everyone present, it was obvious that only Moon and Ludwig held any real status within the organization.
But truthfully-
What Jean was far more curious about was the person behind the curtain. The one higher up. The one who–Had ordered Ludwig to protect her.
Who was this person? And why go through the trouble?
Jean’s eyes flickered faintly, but her thoughts had already drifted far away.
Finally, after everyone had finished their introductions, the meeting shifted into serious territory.
Moon pressed her lips together, her calm eyes narrowing with focus as her tone turned sharp and serious. “I need to remind everyone – be cautious in everything you do. Don’t leave any loose ends. And even if your identity gets exposed, you are not to leak any information about the organization. No matter what.”
As soon as she said this, the mood in the room grew noticeably heavier.
A tense silence settled in as everyone fell quiet, digesting Moon’s words.
Meanwhile, Ludwig looked like he hadn’t heard a thing. Propped up on one elbow, he lounged back lazily, completely unaffected.
Jean’s fingers curled slightly.
Moon wouldn’t say something like that for no reason…
She frowned.
Which meant there was only one explanation someone from the outside had their sights set on Abyssal Choir.
And if that someone had real power, then these lower–tier members could be in danger.
“Moon, why bring this up all of a sudden?”
Aqua, the girl with the high ponytail, spoke up, her brows furrowed. “Are we being watched?”
She’s sharp, Jean thought. Right on the money.

Moon didn’t try to deny it. She nodded slightly. “More or less.”
That answer caused a visible stir in the room.

“Who’s watching us?” someone asked grimly. “It’s fine to tell us. It’s not like we’re scared.”
Moon’s brows knit together briefly.

“They’re not the kind of enemy you take lightly,” she said. No names. No specifics. Just vague warning.
M
It was clear she had no intention of telling then who the enemy was-
But her reluctance to speak said plenty on its own. Even Moon seemed wary.
That meant the threat was very real.
“Don’t worry, Moon,” Aqua said, nodding seriously as the implications settled in. “I’ll be extra careful not to blow my cover.”
Then, in a lighter tone, she smirked. “Guess that means we’re leveling up, huh? Big shots are finally paying attention to us.”
The rest of the room responded with a variety of expressions – some concerned, some puzzled, some fearless, and some lost in thought.
Jean’s gaze shifted slowly from face to face.
Right now, Abyssal Choir was still in its infancy.
After all, according to the plotline, this was still early in the story.
The female lead hadn’t grown up yet – hadn’t even been reborn – and this famous villain organization. was just starting to make waves. It wouldn’t become the fearsome powerhouse it was destined to be until much later.
Which meant: for now, Abyssal Choir wasn’t unbeatable.
If a powerful enough force locked onto them, and they didn’t play it smart… it was entirely possible the whole thing could fall apart.
