Aftermath

Recap--

Roughly a day before Yohan and the Whisperer clashed against each other, Whisperer was engaging in intimate activities with a woman while discussing his sinister plan. He explained his desire to create chaos by manipulating humans to commit murders according to his style. He envisioned planting fragments of his consciousness in men, turning them into copies of himself who would carry out precise and brutal assassinations. The lady questioned his intentions, but he remained focused on forcing the Underworld to be exposed by orchestrating these copycat murders.

Suddenly, Catherine entered the scene, interrupting their conversation and presented Whisperer with an assignment involving Yohan. She instructed him to obtain Yohan's head, indicating a new mission that could have significant implications for the story's progression.
