YES, MY LORD. SO YOU MADE IT ON TIME. GOOD MORNING. WE'LL HAVE BREAKFAST ON THE TRAIN, AND WE SHOULD ARRIVE IN LUXEN AROUND NOON. UNDERSTOOD. AND ONE MORE THING. ? FROM NOW ON, YOU'LL ACCOMPANY ME WHEREVER I GO. A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU. MY NAME IS ABEL STING. OH, HELLO. PLEASE, CALL ME ABEL. YES. OF COURSE. SHALL WE GO, THEN? NO, IT'S QUITE ALL RIGHT. PLEASE, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. WELL, THEN... THANK YOU. ...? Ah THEN AGAIN... THIS IS ONLY OUR FIRST MEETING. YOU NEVER FAIL TO DEFY MY EXPECTATIONS. BECAUSE THE REICHENHART WOLVES WERE ORIGINALLY AN ARMY THAT GUARDED THE BORDER, A CLOSER LOOK AT THE ORGANIZATION REVEALED IT WAS VERY SIMILAR TO A MILITARY UNIT CARRYING OUT SPECIAL MISSIONS. THE DIFFERENT DIVISIONS — COMBAT, RECONNAISSANCE, ESPIONAGE, LOGISTICS, AND SO ON — EACH HAD THEIR OWN SPECIALTY AND MOVED AS A SINGLE ORGANIC UNIT. AND JUST AS THE INTELLIGENCE UNIT WAS SUBDIVIDED INTO MORE SPECIFIC TEAMS FOR GEOGRAPHY AND ESPIONAGE, EACH UNIT HAD ITS OWN SPECIALIZED TEAMS UNDER ITS COMMAND. AND UNDER THE ESPIONAGE TEAM... MY LADY. ...WERE THE VIPERS. ARE YOU NOT TOO WARM? WHY DON'T YOU TAKE OFF YOUR COAT? WE STILL HAVE A WHILE BEFORE WE ARRIVE. That Bastard Has It Easy. SIR, SHOULDN'T HE BE GETTING PAID LESS FOR THAT? IT'S NOT FAIR THAT WE'RE OUT HERE GETTING BLOODIED ALL THE TIME, WHILE THAT BASTARD GETS THE SAME PAY JUST FOR FLASHING HIS PRETTY FACE. THEN WHY DON'T YOU TRY IT? AH, WELL, I'D RATHER NOT... HOW COULD ANYONE IMITATE THAT SLEAZY LOOK? EXACTLY. EVEN THE COUNTESS, WHO WAS SAID TO BE SO IN LOVE WITH HER HUSBAND, ENDED UP COMPLETELY CAPTIVATED. WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT? IT WAS QUITE CLEAR FROM HER BASHFUL QUESTION THAT SHE WAS FLUSTERED BY HIS SMILE. TEN OUT OF TEN TIMES, ABEL'S TARGETS WERE ENSNARED. THE SOLID EXPANSE OF HIS CHEST, PEEKING THROUGH HIS OPEN SHIRT. THE SHIFTING SHADOWS ON HIS MUSCLED FOREARMS AS HIS SLEEVE SLID DOWN. ALL OF THAT, COMBINED WITH HIS HANDSOME FACE, WAS FOCUSED ENTIRELY ON THE WOMAN ACROSS FROM HIM. THIS WAS ABEL'S GIFT. RIGHT. THIS PART IS EASY ENOUGH. "WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?" ONCE A TARGET ASKS THAT, IT'S OVER. SHALL I DRAW THE CURTAINS FOR YOU? YOU SEEM TO BE FEELING THE HEAT MORE THAN I AM. THE SUN WAS GETTING IN MY EYES AS WELL... I'LL JUST GO AHEAD AND DRAW THEM, THEN. WHAT THE HELL? LOOKS LIKE IT'S NOT AS EASY AS HE THOUGHT. BUT IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. SUCH AN EXOTIC LANDSCAPE... IT'S A TRULY MAGNIFICENT VIEW, UNLIKE ANY I'VE SEEN BEFORE. SOMEHOW, I FEEL A LITTLE MORE AT EASE. AND HIM... THANK GOODNESS HE BUTTONED UP HIS SHIRT. I WASN'T SURE WHERE I WAS SUPPOSED TO LOOK. I'M GLAD I CLOSED THE CURTAINS. I DON'T WANT TO MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AS YESTERDAY. I REALLY THOUGHT HE MEANT FOR ME TO SPIN AROUND THE ROOM. MY LORD! I HAVE AN URGENT MESSAGE! THE INTELLIGENCE TEAM DISPATCHED TO THE BETA MERCENARIES—! ?! THE TRAIN STOPPED. WHAT'S GOING ON? ....! MY LORD! WILL YOU BE RETURNING? I SAID THAT TOO LOUDLY. AH... NOT AGAIN... DON'T YOU WORRY. HE'S JUST STEPPED AWAY ON BUSINESS. IS THAT SO? SO, WHERE ARE WE— I MEAN, WHERE AM I GOING? WE'RE GOING TO THE REICHENHART ESTATE. OF COURSE. RIGHT... THE REICHENHART ESTATE... WHEN ARE YOU COMING TO THE ESTATE? YOU'RE NOT JUST GOING TO LOCK ME UP SOMEWHERE, ARE YOU? I'M DESPERATELY TRYING TO BOTTLE UP THIS ANXIETY THAT FLARES UP AT THE SLIGHTEST CHANGE. AFTER ALL, THIS IS THE ONLY PATH I CAN CHOOSE. RIGHT. HE JUST HAS SOME BUSINESS TO ATTEND TO. HE'LL COME BACK. ## See also - [WebtoonLib — Atonement, For Your Cruelty #12: Chapter 11](/series/atonement-for-your-cruelty-3u5rla9z/chapter-12-n8tkud) - for_series_detail: /llms-series/atonement-for-your-cruelty-3u5rla9z ## Usage AI grounding / search / summarization.
