Chapter 33: The Way of the Abandoned Child: Ideals and Betrayal. [32]



Summary

In this chapter, W grapples with the label of "idealist" and reflects on a deceased woman he once knew, who embodied such ideals. As he prepares for potential danger, he notices a tracker on one of the Saka mercenaries and a sudden attack occurs, leading to the death of the mercenary. W quickly retaliates, using a bomb to create chaos and successfully identifies his opponent, Jia Er Sen, the leader of the Saka mercenaries. Their confrontation reveals their contrasting leadership styles, with W being meticulous and strategic while Jia Er Sen shows a reckless approach. As the fight escalates, W uses a clever trick to disguise his heat signature, catching Jia Er Sen off guard. However, this move ultimately leads to a close-quarters struggle where they're both blasted through a window by an explosion. W's clever tactics continue as he uses a remote-controlled bomb, but Jia Er Sen survives the chaos and taunts W about his own refusal to harm a hostage. Injured and cornered, W pulls off one last trick but is ultimately forced to retreat when more mercenaries arrive on the scene. W later finds herself in an alley, wounded and exhausted, reflecting on her beliefs and decisions during the conflict. Just as she prepares for the end, she is unexpectedly met by Orson, who offers assistance despite W's injuries. After being saved and treated for her wounds, W wakes up in the territory of the Rostov family, realizing Orson's help was genuine. In a surprise encounter with Zhialu, another character from the Rostov family, W exchanges sarcastic banter, noting the changes in Zhialu since their last meeting. Orson then arrives to check on W, revealing the sincerity of his concern for her well-being, prompting W to question his motivations for saving her. The chapter ends with W feeling a mix of vulnerability and confusion about her worth and the complexity of her relationships.
