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.

She frowned.

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.
12:58 Mon, May 5 BGG.
Moon didn’t try to deny it. She nodded slightly. “More or less.”
