Escorted by a procession, the lady in white strode toward the edge of the lake.

Everyone had turned toward her when they heard her laughter and froze up right then.

"L-Lady Silverbell…"

Stanwick turned rigid when he saw her too, and he dropped on the floating platform with a thud.

He stared blankly at the lady, panic written all over his face.

"Lady Silverbell!"

Upon seeing Stanwick's dramatic reaction, the martial artists and audience members—be it from Zamri from Riverton—were all bowing their heads in salutation.

"At ease."

It was indeed Silverbell in the flesh, and the crowd's collective salutation truly enlightened Frank to the authority she commanded as the chief of the Martial Alliance.

Over a thousand people were greeting and bowing at her, a seemingly frail woman. None of them would dare question her strength or the official ties she had.

And right now, her visage was cool as she stared at Stanwick, who was on his knees, "Mr. Quaker, don't you think I have the right

    Clang!Frank moved even before Silverbell could react, knocking the short blade out of Stanwick's hand with a bullet of pure vigor."How dare you!"As the short blade landed audibly, Silverbell was sweating bullets as she finally realized that Stanwick had tried to take her by surprise and stab her.She would definitely be hurt if Frank was not there, and the surprise in her eyes soon turned to rage."How dare you, Stanwick!""You tried to attack Lady Silverbell?!""There's no hope for you!"The other Martial Alliance executives were definitely stunned by the sight as well.Thank goodness Silverbell was safe, or they would definitely be blamed for the mishap!As for Stanwick, he gave up on all pretense upon seeing that his sneak attack had failed."Hehehe…" He sneered in contempt as he stared Silverbell in the eye up close. "Lady Silverbell? More like an impudent brat! Do you really think you're such a big deal?!"Silverbell glowered and bellowed, "What's that supposed to m

    "Did you really think you're such a big deal?!"Even now, Stanwick's pompous insult before he died still rang in Silverbell's ears.Moreover, Silverbell understood that although her position carried authority, she was at best a chess piece, in a game where multiple factions fought for political dominance. Since there were not many matters she could involve herself with, she longer felt tied down.She left with the elders without so much as looking back, although she subtly gave Frank's hand a squeeze when she walked past him.As for the elder who had just warned Silverbell, he was stroking his beard and smiling as he announced, "I hereby announce in the chief's stead that Riverton's qualifying berths are forfeited, in light of the branch manager disguising an Ascendant-ranked elite to insert him in a Birthright-rank qualifier."The two forfeited berths would instead be made available to Zamri participants only."Silverbell paused for a moment when she heard the announcement but

    There was still a week left before the finals of the Martial Tournament, which would be held in Morhen.Naturally, Frank was not nervous at all and even fell back to his old return of punctual training and rest.He had also won public favor among Riverton martial artists after proposing that they be afforded one qualification berth.His old friends Robert Quill and Gerald Simmons, who were the Riverton commissioner and the Riverton mayor respectively, even paid him a personal visit.They were both righteously indignant that the Riverton Martial Alliance branch manager had been caught cheating but also grateful that Frank afforded their representatives some dignity.Still, neither of them were aware of a dispute when he tried to ask them indirectly about the Zamri mayor and the Zamri commissioner—it was the first they had heard of it.After seeing his guests off, Frank did not even have time to gather his thoughts when he got a call from Helen Lane."Frank… Hurry! I-I got into an

    Both police officers were shaking their heads coldly even before Helen could finish.One of them even asked, "Don't you think you're a little too concerned about your career? Also, you're now suspected of a drunken accident. Or perhaps you're trying to make it a hit-and-run?""I-I'm not."Helen sighed urgently. "But this negotiation is very important—""Wait."Frank strode up past the yellow line, walking up to the puddle of blood. "Officers, may I ask where the victim is?" Both officers were speechless. "An ambulance came and took him away.""Took him where?" Frank pressed.The officer snorted, waving him off impatiently. "Zamri Hospital, of course. Do we really have to spell it out for you?"The other officer then whipped out a pair of handcuffs and slapped them on Helen's wrists. "Alright, beautiful. There's no point calling your husband to defend you—you're coming with us."While he was considerate enough to cover the cuffs with a jacket, Frank strode up, stopping him be

    Parading a suspect on the streets naked?No respectable police officer would do that!Vicky on the other hand…Frank shook his head repeatedly to throw those messy thoughts out of his head—now was not the time for that!The priority right now was to find evidence and prove Helen's innocence.At the same time, Frank sensed that a conspiracy was in motion, targeting not just him but Helen too.And right now, Shellan Group was the only lead he had.However, before he could head over, he got a call from Winter Lawrence. "Frank… H-Help me!"Frank was certainly shocked by Winter's cry and promptly asked, "What?! Just calm down, and tell me what happened!"Winter was coughing while sobbing, "I don't know. We just received a patient, but he was gone the next instant!""Gone?!" Frank did a double take.It was actually not that surprising for a patient to go missing these days. Some simply did not like their assigned doctors or just bailed on treatment halfway because they could not a

    Once Winter hung up, Frank urged the cabbie to speed up, only for them to run into a traffic jam caused by a traffic accident.Every vehicle on the road stayed stuck in place, with drivers blaring their horns incessantly and noisily.Frank got further anxious as he waited, even as it dawned on him that something was strange.By the time he rushed out of the cab and headed to the location of the supposed traffic accident, all he saw was a car without a driver left in the middle of the road, stalling traffic entirely."Fuck!"Frank cursed as he could see right away that the traffic congestion was a staged incident. Then,without another word, he started running in the direction of Zamri Hospital.-Meanwhile, as Winter hung up in her office at Zamri Hospital and put on a face mask, she sighed.Even as she yearned inwardly for Frank's arrival, someone started knocking on her door."Who is it?" Winter asked, looking up at the door in confusion.When the chemical attack began, sh

    Winter continued, "Most of our medical staff are suffering from fevers and vomiting, and let me guess—the journalists who are rushing here are yet another one of your gestures of compassion, no?"Fredo laughed and applauded right then. "Good! You're not as dumb as you look, seeing how you've managed to put the pieces together!"His laughter only left Winter scowling harder, and she slammed her hand on the table while pointing at the door. "You will leave this instant! I will make sure to remember everything you've done to Zamri Hospital on this day, and mark my words, this won't go unanswered!'"Well said!"Fredo stood up, clapping endlessly. "I couldn't have put it better, chief. This matter certainly won't go unanswered."He then beckoned at his burly bodyguard, who opened the briefcase on the desk and took out a stack of bright-white documents.As the bodyguard primply put it on Winter's desk, she scowled and asked, "What's this?""The partnership agreement between Zamri Hosp

    After a brief silence, Winter eventually picked up the documents that Fredo had passed to her.Right now, she was not just defending her own honor and future—she had to protect all the patients in the building right now, as well as maintain the public's faith toward Zamri Hospital.If those journalists outside managed to break inside and saw the state of affairs within the building, this major security incident would definitely stir endless waves of chaos.And as the chief of hospital, Winter would be compelled to resign amid overwhelming criticism, even though Frank had gone through great lengths to get her this position.She certainly did not want to let Frank down so soon.However, even though Winter was ready to be butchered, she gasped audibly after reading the document Fredo brought and looked up at the man in disbelief."What's wrong, Ms. Lawrence? You look very surprised."Fredo chuckled, but it was clearly faked this time.Even from his point of view, the demands made

    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
