Chapter 593 A Worthwhile Deal To most members of Abyssal Choir, Dusk was nothing more than a codename.
*371% +8 Pearls Inside Dusk's office were countless items and documents related to the organization-and now, all of it belonged to Jean It was more than enough for her to take Dusk's place and play the role.
Jean never would've imagined that she'd go from a brand-new recruit to someone with blood on her hands, all in the blink of an eye-only to rise as the leader of a secret organization.
But now that it had happened, she couldn't afford to waste ton fear or second thoughts. She had no choice but to grit her teeth and move forward.
She knew she had to make full use of the Abyssal Choir card.
As for Dusk, she didn't regret it in the slightest.
A man like that deserved to die.
After his death, Jean moved swiftly to consolidate Abyssal Choir's resources and rein in its members, bringing order and structure to the way the entire organization operated.
But to Jean, that still wasn't enough.
Ever since her awakening, she had known about many events that were destined to unfold in the future.
She knew that as the protagonist of this world, Sarah would effortlessly attract support from all kinds of talented individuals-each one charmed by her brilliance, willingly pledging their loyalty to her.
But none of that had happened yet. So there was no reason she couldn't snatch those people up She had the advantage of foresight, and it only made sense to use it.
With that decision made, Jean wasted no ttaking action.
Her first target was Ludwig.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfirst.
A cold, robotic-like fighting machine-one of the bloodiest and most ruthless enforcers under the future heroine's command.
Jean had never met Ludwig before and knew little about him.
If not for her foresight, he wouldn't even have been on her radar.
Back then, Ludwig had a bit of a reputation, but he hadn't yet becthe unstoppable force he was destined to be.
Jean figured that if she simply sent one of her subordinates to recruit him, it wouldn't be enough. A man like that needed sincerity to be moved.
After all, geniuses always had their pride. So she decided to go herself.
Naturally, she took precautions-disguising her appearance.
14:23 Sat, 23 AugƑ' xi ■ • Chapter 593 A Worthwhile Deal Leaders of secret organizations never revealed their true faces. It was a basic rule-meant to avoid retaliation from enemies and to preserve a sense of mystery, even within the organization.
That was how Dusk had operated.
There was no reason for Jean to break that tradition.
The day she met Ludwig, it was dark and raining.
She'd expected to find a fierce, imposing figure. Instead, Ludwig was badly injured.
+8 Pearls The teenage boy was bleeding out, his face deathly pale, consciousness slipping. He was so weak, he looked like he could die at any moment.
Jean didn't hesitate. She stepped in and saved him on the spot.
And just like that-by pure chance-Jean becLudwig's "lifesaver." Because of that, Ludwig joined Abyssal Choir without protest.
Jean hadn't expected it to go so smoothly.
His recruitment gave her an enormous boost of confidence, She had taken Ludwig-one of Sarah's future trump cards-right out from under her nose. It made Jean stronger, and Sarah weaker. It was a deal too good to pass up.
Next, she planned to repeat the process and recruit another future top aide of Sarah's-Jolene.
But bringing Jolene in wasn't nearly as easy.
She was a cautious, rational woman.
Even after Jean laid all her cards on the table and talked with her at length, Jolene still wasn't fully convinced.
In the end, Jean had no choice but to use the tactic-painting grand, exaggerated visions of Abyssal Choir's future.
To her surprise... Jolene actually started to waver.

After that, she felt a lot more at case.
But she didn't expect a crisis to erupt inside 11.zation so soon.
Luka was the second-in-command of Chol ked just below Dusk.
+8 Pearls He was sharp, meticulous, and cautious by nature.
Even though he had never seen Dusk in person, after just a few brief m exchanges with Jean, he sensed something was off. Eventually, Luka cright out and asked her, "You're not Dusk, are you?"
They hadn't met face-to-face-only communicated online but tuka's question still made Jean break out in a cold sweat. She hadn't expected him to be that perceptive.
After just a few text conversations, he'd figured out she wasn't the real Dusk.
No wonder he was the second-in-command of Abyssall Choir-he wash & someone who could be easily fooled. And just like that, Jean's disguise fell apart in front of Luka.
She had no idea what he planned to do with that information.
With her current strength, she had no chance of winning against someone like him.
She also knew there was no point pretending anymore-no use trying to dodge or deny.
She might as well cclean.
Jean left out the details but gave Luka a rough outline of what had happened between her and Dusk.
She also told him, “If needed, I can step down and hand the position over to you." To be fair, Luka probably was more suited to lead the organization than she was.
But Luka declined. "No need. You can keep being Dusk. It's fine." He seemed like a gentle perso too, in his own way, Nothing bad will happen now. I'll help you." to put Jean at ease. "You don't need to be afraid.
Jean hadn't expected the crisis of being exposed to end like that.
Luka's reaction completely caught her off guard.
Still, having his support meant Jean could now firmly establish herself within Abyssal Choir, Her position as leader was more secure than ever.
