After all, Yosil was the castellan of Kornac's Keep!Yosil slowly opened his eyes and flashed a vague smile as Frank turned to him. "I've been watching, young man—you only sniffed the cauldron and wrote down your answer. Why didn't you taste the soup? You might stand a better chance of getting it right that way, no?"Frank stopped in his tracks, but his stance clearly did not change as he retorted, "Why should I taste it when it's poisoned?"If anything, he appeared even surer now."Insolence!"Mole was snapping at Frank right then, "Watch your tongue, boy! You're speaking with the castellan of Kornac's Keep!"Frank shot him a look of disdain in turn. "And, what? Are you saying that being older makes everything right?"Mole was left flushing. "You wretch?!""Manners, Mole Cricks."Yosil held up a hand, stopping Mole from snapping at Frank as he twirled his beard. "You are right, young man. While I am a mentor and have lived for two centuries, my knowledge in Draconian traditio

However, Mole did not identify the Augustraff added into the soup, but Frank did.Did that not mean that Mole, despite being an elder of Kornac's Keep, lost out to one of the participants in terms of herbology and medicinal knowledge?!While he was scowling terribly, he turned toward Yosil with an exasperated look and tried to hide his embarrassment as he asked, "Chief, we've always been cordial to outsiders and potential apprentices. How could you poison everyone in a trial?""That's right!"The other participants were panicking too—what was Kornac's Keep scheming by poisoning everyone?!"Hahaha… It was just a whim I had in the spur of the moment."Yosil laughed, holding up his hands. "This yearly trial is really getting boring—it's time we try something new, don't you think?""Well, if I'm not mistaken…"Frank spoke calmly as everyone watched, "The second trial would be to identify the symptoms, thereby tailoring an antidote to counteract the poison?"While everyone gasped i

"Since you're all demanding fairness, I will play along this one time so that you don't get to argue anymore."With those words, Frank lifted the cauldron with one hand and swallowed the remaining soup and all the sediments whole."What?! No!!!"Even Yosil was left gaping, throwing up his hands in protest. "There's not much soup left, but the poison of the sediments is especially potent! If you drank that much, you're not going to… to…"Mole was frowning too.The participants only tasted the soup with spatulas or with their fingers, which meant that the poison was at least manageable.However, Frank must have chugged twenty people's worth and even at the sediments! He was clearly suicidal!"Sir, what…"Mole turned toward Yosil, unsure what to do."You've made a mistake, my friend!" Yosil slammed his fist on his table, sighing as he saw Frank was bleeding black ooze from every orifice.He thought highly of Frank, but the kid proved too hot-tempered!Yosil was especially sho

Nonetheless, Frank ignored Kairo and turned toward Mole, demanding loudly, "Are we starting the second trial or not?""Well…"Mole turned toward Yosil, since this was an unprecedented case.Yosil was staring at Frank in turn, seeing the determination and composure in his eyes, devoid of panic or fear.It seemed that he was really not throwing away his life out of sheer pettiness, but to silence all his doubters.And that left Yosil stunned.After a while, he nodded at Mole. "Begin.""Sir—""I said we can begin, or perhaps you don't understand?" Yosil's expression turned cool, projecting such a terrible presence that it left Mole flinching."N-No…"Mole leveled a troubled look at Frank before pointing at the herbs and cauldrons that the Kornac's Keep apprentices brought. "The second trial begins now! Participants, you now have one hour to concoct an antidote in an hour to counteract the poison plaguing you… or you will die!"The participants all felt a chill running down th

Seeing that everyone except Frank had chosen their herbs, Kairo returned on stage, swiping and taking what remained on the table.With that, all the herbs that were not chosen for the second trial were slid into his pocket."Huh?"Yosil and the other Kornac's Keep elders were frowning when they saw what Kairo did.Being sly old foxes themselves, they could certainly tell what Kairo was doing.Frank had certainly stolen the limelight earlier, embarrassing Kairo.As such, Kairo now sought payback by taking away any herbs Frank could use, aside from some useless mudroots.And without any herbs, Frank was not going to counteract the poison in his body."Kairo Wal—"Even before Mole could start, Kairo shrugged innocently. "There's no rule stating how many herbs we can take, is there? I'm going to try every herb to see if I can make a quality pill."Kairo's words left Mole stumped, and he turned with a frown at Frank.Seeing that Frank was still seated meditatively, unaware of eve
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 1657
It seemed that the herbs were not entirely wasted on Kairo, as he actually showed skill.Still, just as Kairo was done, everyone turned toward Frank again.There were no herbs, and there was just fifteen minutes left.Seemingly sensing their stares, Frank slowly opened his eyes and pushed himself to his feet with considerable difficulty."Hehe…"Kairo smirked at Frank, feeling endlessly confident with the pure white pill in his palm.Even if Frank had profound cultivation, he was not turning the tide when he had neither the time nor the herbs.In fact, Kairo believed his victory was assured, while Frank slowly shambled toward the stage to get herbs as he watched with a smirk. He was actually surprised for once when he saw that only useless mudroots were left.Still, he understood when he looked and saw Kairo's smirk and the pure white pill he was holding.The prick had taken away the other herbs, clearly out of revenge because Frank rubbed him the wrong way.Frank, however,
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 1658
"Oh… Uh, okay…" Yosil sighed exasperatedly at Frank's refusal.There was nothing he could say now.As time continued to tick away, Frank threw all the mudroots into the cauldron and cooked them with a huge fire.His desperate reaction left Kairo's sinister smile broadening.Beside him, Horey Lindt was frowning instead. "Could it be…"Catching her murmur, Kairo turned toward her with a look of surprise. "What is it?""It's nothing…" Horey shrugged. "But I think there's this technique of using contravening medicinal effects…""What?!" Kairo's heart skipped a beat, at once uncomfortable.Still, Horey quickly assured him, "Oh, don't worry about it. Not many people would even be aware, let alone him. It's just something I read from an old book—the technique itself has been lost to time.""I see…"Kairo nodded, but he remained uncomfortable as he saw the confidence in Frank's expression.Did Frank perhaps know that contravening technique by chance?However, while Kairo was busy
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 1659
Despite everyone's effort to tell Frank to concede, he breathed a long sigh and turned toward Mole. "Why is that so? I haven't given up yet.""Huh?!"Mole was left frowning, as Frank was still being stubborn even now. "Understand your position! I'm telling you to forfeit so that you won't die senselessly—I'd rather not have your death tarnish our reputation, even if this is your own fault."Suddenly remembering how Frank drank the entire cauldron of poison, Mole smirked at him.His miserable state now was certainly hilarious!That was when Frank said, "I don't need you to worry about my life."His calm words jolted Mole out of his thoughts, and he was left staring at Frank in shock. "Do you have a death wish?""Of course not."Frank looked at him confidently. "But the trial isn't over yet, is it?""No…"Mole frowned, glancing at the hourglass on the table beside Yosil. "But there's only five minutes left. What are you going to—""You don't have to worry about that."Frank s

Frank snorted. "Alright, I'm hanging up. I'm getting started over here soon.""Yeah. Good luck," Jouri replied.Hanging up, Frank looked up at the waterfall overhead, and then at Skyler, who was standing beside him. "So? Is it time yet?""Almost… Now!" Skyler's eyes were glowing even as she stared at her watch."Alright."Frank looked up just as the skies abruptly darkened. "Ah, there it is—the eclipse."The sun seemed to disappear, and the world was suddenly shrouded in darknesses.And beside him, a stone door imbued with the power of the spiritron vein also rumbled as it parted."Got it!" Frank rushed inside without another word as soon as he saw it."Hmph. I'm surprised that you could reach this place." A cold, wrathful voice resounded inside even before Frank got a hold of his surroundings.Looking up, Frank found a youth in a black cossack and sporting grey-white hair, standing upon a cliff as he looked down on him.Frank chuckled. "Hehe. Like I said, I've come to kill

Frank narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?'Crane shrugged. "I don't mind giving it to you straight—members of Torrent are actually… Ahem. A part of Torrent himself."Frank paused. "What's that supposed to mean?""You don't get it, do you?" Crane grinned. "Then let me put it to you this way—every member is a clone of Torrent.""A clone?" Frank gasped in realization."Yes," Crane nodded. "That's why I believe that challenging Crane is just suicide. You have no idea how powerful he is—only death awaits you down that path."Frank smirked. "Oh, but I don't think so."Crane rolled his eyes. "Fine, whatever—now listen closely. You will find Torrent in the Mystic Trail, but you would only find that place when the sun and moon coincide, and the entrance is beneath the waterfall south of Horton."As he finished, he snorted coldly. "I have no idea if you can actually do it, but I'm hoping you do kill him… Heh. I'm getting tired of being stuck under his control for so long."Then, waving off

Frank abruptly turned, immediately noticing one of the Cranes crouching, ready to spring forward and blindside him."Got you!" He laughed."Hah! You fell for it!"Just as Frank swung a punch to pulverize that Crane, he suddenly burst into pus that splashed at Frank's face."Damn it!" Frank took a step back, surprised that the clone's presence was identical to the real Crane, and a trap on top of that!"Die!"The Cranes around him each whipped out a dagger, all of them stabbing at Frank at the same time."Get off!" Frank bellowed, unleashing a shockwave that sent all the Cranes flying across all directions."Frank! Above you!" Skyler suddenly shrieked."Yes! I'm right here!" A strange laughter sounded above Frank just as he wiped the pus off his face.Crane was suddenly directly above him, launching an aerial kick straight at Frank's head, and Frank had no time to dodge!"Die!" Crane's smile curled into a twisted angle as he saw that too.He was very confident with this kick
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 2909
"Disgusting…" Skyler murmured through her hand.Despite being skinned and scalped, the women were all still alive and singing to the music that was playing despite their anguish."Talk about a terrible fetish."Frank was scowling too—why were all the members of Torrent such sick deviants? It seemed like his plan to wipe them out was absolutely correct!"So, you killed my clone?"The lanky man on the couch slowly turned to level his bloodshot eyes at Frank.His lips were wet with bed as they curled upward into an eerie smile."Clone?" Frank narrowed his eyes."Hehe. It's a sage art."Crane shrugged as he stood up and wiped the blood off his lips. "It's only natural that you don't understand… Still, you deserve praise. If you can kill my clone, that means you're not just slightly stronger than Ghost."Naturally, the man was none other than the real Crane.Still, as Skyler studied him from a corner, even she could notice the strange twitch of his fingers, and his veins were pro
The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage Chapter 2908
Even as Crane ran, he was looking over his shoulder, his heart pounding. "No… I won't win in a one-on-one!"No, as long as I get back to my real body… we can do this together!" He frowned, having seen how Frank sliced off the pinkies of those hood rats. It hence quickly dawned on him that Frank was not just slightly stronger than Ghost, as Torrent had put it!"Almost there!" He gasped when he saw the signboard of Pegasus Showtown in the distance. "As long as I get there and rendezvous with my real body, that brat will lose—"That was when he turned and saw that a shadow had caught up with impossible speed."What?!" Crane's eyes almost popped out in bewilderment. "What speed is that?! Are you kidding—"Even as he spotted the shadow, the shadow turned into a youth with an impassive visage.His fist outstretched, he was clearly punching toward Crane's forehead!"Argh…"Even as Crane looked on, the youth's punch slowed down by tenfold, but his fist kept closing in.Then, whe

Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving.""Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…""Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!""Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!""Yeah! Ten grand, at least!""You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next.""You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist."Arg

"Five grand?! Did you hear that?! He just threw five grand!""Must be a rich kid coming here for a secret rendezvous, out of prying eyes? Those types are the easiest mark!""Fuck! And Dani got one of us… It hurts me more than losing at the races!"Frank could hear the buzz around him but ignored it as he strode past the men flanking him and headed toward the street that stank of blood."Stop!" A big tattooed man grinned sinisterly as he intercepted Frank.As his buddies encircled Frank as well, Frank snorted—it seemed that they took his reaction for a sign of weakness and thought that he could be cowed.The tattooed man rubbed his chin as he leered at Skyler's voluptuous figure, chuckling. "Look, boy. I'm short on cash, so let me take a loan. I'll pay you back some other day, how about that?"His friend laughed. "Exactly! You just gave Dani five grand, and we won't ask for more… just four, how about that?"Skyler scowled in turn and glanced worriedly at Frank beside her—was he

Frank himself had just stepped out of the nightclub when his eyes narrowed."Blood," he murmured, his nostrils twitching."Blood?"Skyler sniffed the air, puzzled. "I can't smell it.""It's from the opposite street… I smell the blood of over a dozen people.""A dozen?!" Skyler did a double take.He could identify the number of people who were killed?! That was just ridiculous!"Come on, let's take a look."Just as Frank led the way toward the source of the stench, a woman suddenly came up, catching Frank off guard and throwing herself into his arms."Hmmm?" He looked down to see that she had thick makeup, average looks, and a rather pudgy belly."Argh! He touched me!" she pointed at Frank and shrieked even before he realized what was happening."What?!" Skyler was staring at the woman too, mystified."Oh, sister! You just didn't see it!"The woman kept hollering, pointing at Frank's face. "Your boyfriend grabbed my ass! Is that how you teach him manners?!""Teach him ma

Wyvern screamed even as he clutched the stump that was his hand, screaming so shrilly one might mistake his voice as inhuman."Oh, just shut up." The lanky man glowered and launched a kick, reducing Wyvern into puddles of blood and pieces of innards, splattering all around the lobby. "Argh!!!" the devilish lady screamed as she watched the carnage unfolded."Another sound, and you'd end up just like him." The lanky man turned and frowned at her impatiently."Hngh…" The devilish lady promptly clasped a hand over her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes as she trembled."What the hell?!"Outside, Wyvern's lackeys heard the screams and ran inside, looking for him. "Hey, where's Wyvern?!"However, the lobby was too dimly lit for them to notice the blood and guts scattered around the walls, and they only sensed that terrible stench."Hngh…" The devilish lady was too scared to speak, and tears trickled out of her eyes."Fuck!"One of the lackeys strode up and seized the lanky man
