In the same instant Frank heard the wooden box being opened, he leapt out of the closet straight toward 'Horey Lindt', catching her and pinning her on the floor.

"Don't move!" he snapped.

"Ahh!" The woman shrieked underneath Frank, jolting him to his senses.

Feeling a foreboding sensation in the pit of his stomach, he turned to the woman, his eyes widening as he found himself staring at an unfamiliar face.

It was not Horey!

"What…"

Even as Frank's face fell, the woman beneath him struggled, punching his chest.

"Let me go, you moron! Let me go!" she shrieked.

"Damn it!"

Frank cursed as he heard a rush of footsteps outside and poked the woman in the collarbone, knocking her out.

Then, he scooped her up in one hand and hid in the next room before pressing his ear against the wall to eavesdrop on Room 10.

"What happened?!"

"The closet broke? And what's that on the table?"

Frank breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the staff members' murmurs of confusion—fortunatel

    Horey was no fool—she would be able to tell away that the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom in the box was an artisan object and no treasure.And since it was a fake, she would immediately presume that Helen and the others were trying to trick her.On top of that, Frank showed up and subdued her courier.One did not need imagination at this point.Horey would naturally presume that the whole thing was a trap designed by Helen to catch her, and that Helen had never planned to follow her demands from the start.Horey would be furious and would definitely hurt Gavin Lane in retaliation."Devious witch…"Frank could not help sighing, impressed despite Horey being his enemy. She was so cunning she would crush her senior apprentice, Kairo Wal, by a country mile in the brains department.Seeing that Frank has asked his questions—and that she already gave all the answers she could give anyway—she asked fearfully, "Excuse me, could you let go of me now?""What? Oh, right. Sorry…"Frank quickly

    Tugging on Frank's sleeve, the woman said quietly, "M-My boyfriend and I… slipped. And we heard people outside, so we hid…"One of the security guards was staring at her sideways. "If you heard people, why would you hide?""Uh, well…"The woman murmured awkwardly. "We came in from the back door. We saw an empty room, so we tried to check it out before we got our own… And then we slipped and hid when we heard you coming.""I see."The security guards nodded before one of them said, "Wait, did you break the closet in Room 10? I'm sorry, but you'll have to pay for it…""What? How much?" the woman asked, her fingers clenching on Frank's sleeve."Five grand." The security guard whipped out a price list."What?! That's so expensive!" The woman flinched in shock."It's fine. Five grand it is—we can afford it."Still, Frank quickly strode up and whipped out a check to write down ten grand before slipping it into the security guard's chest pocket and patting it. "Use the change to buy

    "Well, this means trouble," Frank murmured to himself, frowning as he tried to think of a solution.-Meanwhile, outside the karaoke box, Helen received a call from Horey. "Your plan is genius, Ms. Lane.""What?"Helen was left confused. She looked between Gina and Huub, but they looked just as confused as to what the kidnapper was talking about.Horey chuckled just then. "Still pretending, huh?""I'm not pretending. What are you getting at?" Helen pressed urgently.Horey laughed in cold rage. "Not pretending? Then why did you bring a fake flower? Hell, that's not all—you even had someone hide in the closet in Room 10, ready to ambush me! You're really showing no sincerity here, Ms. Lane!" Helen wheeled on Huub in shock. "The Bloodcrane Spiritbloom is fake?!"Huub appeared stunned for a moment, but he quickly stuck with the script he had prepared beforehand, insisting vehemently, "Impossible! That's definitely the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom, an heirloom from my ancestors! How cou

    Huub appeared anxious, but he knew inwardly that he had won.Gina was an idiot and a slave to the rich and important—she would never stop him and was an ally to a certain extent.As for Frank, that gigolo was now in Blackwater and would never leave for the rest of his life.Now, no one could stop Huub—Helen was as good as his!Even as he thought that and led Helen and the others back inside the karaoke box, he spotted a familiar face in the lobby."Frank Lawrence?!"He froze when he recognized the man, unable to react right then."What's wrong, Mr. Droitner?"Both Gina and Helen were puzzled to see Huub suddenly freezing like a statue and spotted the same familiar face when they looked where he was looking.Gina was a little angry as she exclaimed, "Frank?!'"Frank! What are you doing here?!"On the other hand, Helen was delighted—Frank would always appear at her most vulnerable and helpless moments.She left Huub and walked over to Frank right away, wrapping her hands arou

    "Huh?!"Huub's accusation caught Frank off guard.Both Helen and Gina were stunned for a moment, but they turned toward Frank too, and he frowned. "Still trying to bullshit your way out of this, and even trying to blame me for using a fake?""Frank!"Gina strode up just then, glancing between Helen and Frank as she yelled, "I don't know if Mr. Droitner gave us a fake herb, but he at least had the sincerity to help us along the way! That alone makes him better than you!"She paused before adding coolly, "Where were you and Helen and I are worried sick for her uncle? And now, you jump out of nowhere. It makes me wonder about your intention!"Huub was certainly delighted with Gina's outburst, though he chuckled under his breath. "I knew it—she really is an idiot."Then, turning toward Helen with a loving gaze, he said, "I don't know if my Bloodcrane Spiritbloom was messed with, but I swear that it's my family heirloom passed down from my great-great-great grandfather. I wouldn't ha

    "Hahaha!!!"Huub was at once nervous, but his knuckles eased triumphantly as he saw the footage.Fortune was really on his side! He was just bullshiting, but by an unprecedented stroke of luck, Frank had just proven himself guilty!Laughing coldly as he pointed at an impassive Frank, "See?! You're the one who switched out my treasure, and the kidnapper noticed that it wasn't real!""What else do you have to say now?! Let me guess—you were already dead set on sacrificing Helen's uncle yesterday just to keep your Bloodcrane Spiritbloom even when Helen came to your doorstep asking you for it!"But when she left with me, you heard that I had one too, so you wanted mine as well! So you got a fake one, found out where we were making the exchange with the kidnapper, hid here, and switched out my Bloodcrane Spiritbloom, even trying to frame me for it!"You tried to catch the kidnapper directly to win Helen's favor anyway, and that sure was a fat lot of help!

    Gina leapt up and grabbed Frank too. "Frank! If you'd really taken Mr. Droitner's Bloodcrane Spiritbloom, I don't mind dying here fighting you! I'll show everyone your true colors now!"Then, she started shouting at the top of her lungs in every direction. "Everyone, help! We caught a thief here. He stole Helen's stuff but refuses to admit it! He thinks he's above the law just because he can hold himself in a fight! He's bullying us…"Frank only got further frustrated as bystanders around the karaoke box stopped to look."Enough!" he bellowed, unleashing a burst of vigor that knocked Gina and Helen away.There was a look of guilt in his eyes when he saw Helen drop on the floor, but he soon scowled angrily. "Why can't you believe me, Helen? Am I a despicable thief in your eyes?!"While Helen stayed limp on the floor in silence, Huub rushed to her side while pointing at Frank and snapping, "See? He can't defend himself, and that's why he's getting violent! Go on, do it! I'm not afra

    "Yes, Mr. Droitner."Having received his orders, Huub's goon turned to leave.Huub smiled sinisterly in turn. "Hmph. Frank may have escaped Blackwater, but he probably doesn't know that it's not a place he can leave just because he wants to!"-While the chaos in Silicon Karaoke Box continued, two men—one elderly and the other relatively young, and both wearing security guard uniforms—left their room.They crossed the street, subtly following a hooded figure in jeans who was keeping her head lowered.Scarface leaned close toward Madfist and whispered, "How can you tell that she's the one, old man?""It's just my experience as a martial artist talking."Madfist smiled. "Her pacing is wary, and she keeps looking around while trying to stay out of sight. The way I see it, she most definitely is the person Mr. Lawrence is looking for.""Amazing… Well, do we call Mr. Lawrence now?""There's no rush. We can do that once we find her lair.""Okay." Scarface nodded, put away his phon

    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

    "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

    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
