Despite That Manhua

As the rain poured down in torrents, Hae-il stood alone in the dark alley, his heart heavy with the weight of his decisions. The neon lights reflected in the puddles at his feet, distorting his reflection like a fractured mirror. Moments ago, he had faced a choice that would change everything. Han Gyeol's words echoed in his mind, their implications cutting deeper than any blade. The man he had come to trust, the man who had offered him a lifeline in a sea of uncertainty, now stood revealed as a puppet master pulling strings in the shadows. Betrayal tasted bitter on his tongue, mixing with the rain and the scent of damp asphalt. But amidst the storm raging around him, Hae-il felt a flicker of determination ignite within his chest. He would not be a pawn in someone else's game. He would be the master of his own fate. With a newfound resolve, Hae-il straightened his spine and faced the looming darkness ahead. The road would be treacherous, the dangers unknown, but he would not falter. Jun Seon's safety, Han Gyeol's motives, his own desires – they all intertwined in a complex web of deceit and longing. As he took a step forward, the rain washing away the remnants of his doubt, Hae-il knew that the path he had chosen was a perilous one. But despite the uncertainties that lay ahead, despite the shadows that threatened to engulf him, he would press on. For in the depths of his soul, he held onto the belief that redemption was within reach – and he would fight tooth and nail to grasp it.
