Chapter 2455

Author: Chu
Dawn threw her hands up. "It's really no big deal. Children are the future, as they say. How are we going to live with ourselves if we don't protect them?"

Jojo's parents nodded repeatedly. "You're right! By the way, would you like to join us for lunch? It's about time."

Dawn quickly said, "No, it's fine. We came here with a larger group, and it seems like they haven't had enough fun yet, so…"

"Understood!"

While Jojo's parents knew that Dawn and Frank were reluctant to accept their gratitude, this was no different from giving presents—your recipient might reject it, but you have to deliver one.

"Shall we exchange numbers? Let's have dinner together when you can make time for that."

Dawn laughed. "Sorry, but I don't have a phone."

Jojo smiled in wry amusement. "You're such a bad liar. I mean, what year is it? Do you guys not have phones?"

Frank chuckled. "I understand your gratitude, but it's a fine tradition of us to be altruistic without it going in the record. You really don

    However, just before things got out of hand, a deep voice boomed nearby, "Snap at them too!"Everyone turned and saw that it was none other than Frank!"Oh, perfect timing!"The dame was delighted, and even more so when she looked around and saw that Jada was not around.It was the dame's misfortune that she never saw Frank in action. That was why she presumed that Frank was just a normal man, unlike Jada, and promptly beckoned at her brutes to encircle Frank.Frank remained unmoved and growled coolly, "Apologize to that young man, and I'll let you go, or you'd all be paraplegic for life!"The brutes and the dame traded glances before laughing out loud."You're kidding, brat! Just look at your scrawny form—how are you going to win against us?!""Glad you asked!"Furious, Frank sent each brute flying with a slap and strode right up to the dame.The dame was terrified, as she had never expected the pretty boy she dismissed as not a threat was that good in a fight.Judging from

    Toto then put on an apron. "So, is there any type of food that any of you can't eat? I'll start cooking if there isn't.""You don't have to!" Jada quickly stopped him. "We're here not just to take a break, but also to experience a life we never had—like cooking, for example. Surely you can understand that? So you should just do your own thing.""In that case, I shan't impose!" Toto nodded and left after giving them his number.With that, Jada led the others in happily collecting ingredients from the backyard, while Frank looked on, lounging on the couch.Come to think of it, living like this was good—a picturesque environment, and ideal climate… it was certainly much better than the gloomy lifestyle in the city.Alda then came over with a large basket of vegetables, leaving him smiling in wry amusement. "Why would you take so much, Ms. Ingram? Are you feeding the pigs?""This isn't much!" Alda exclaimed. Frank sighed, at a loss for words.Soon, the other women returned with ba

    Frank and Dawn could not refuse the couple's enthusiasm, with Jojo's dad bringing them a couple of lamb skewers.Smiling, he asked, "Are you two in a relationship or already married?"Dawn quickly shook her head as she took one. "There's a misunderstanding. We're just friends."Jojo's mother giggled. "Even if you're just friends, I'm sure you're considering the possibility?"Dawn blushed, at a loss for words.That was when a drunkard wobbled toward them, leering at Dawn through muddled eyes and immediately feeling a pang of lust.Mistaking that he was at a nightclub because of the music, he came up to her and giggled, "Come on, girl! Let's drink!" Frank glowered and snapped, "Go to bed if you're drunk, or quit yapping!""It's none of your business!" the drunkard bellowed. "Don't play the maiden if you're out to play—I won't fall for it! As for money… All I have is money!"Whipping out a handful of hundred dollar bills, he threw them at Dawn.However, Frank pulled her out of

    The priestess then threw away the torch and gestured politely at Frank.Confused but undaunted, Frank strode into the picture of the dragon's head.The priestess raised both hands to the skies in response, her bare feet stamping the ground repeatedly.Soon, the flames danced, and a fiery dragon materialized, taking to the air!Everyone clapped, having no idea what was happening and presuming that it was a magic show.Only Frank knew that it was not—it was the priestess's spell, and she was one of a kind!That was when the fiery dragon streaked toward Frank, and the fiery dragon dematerialized.The priestess, who was walking circles around Frank, stopped.She leaned her head to the side as she stared at Frank, visibly stumped.But after studying Frank for a while, she sighed in relief.With a wave of her hand, the flames dispersed, and the crowd cheered again.At the same time, the priestess ran toward the bonfire, chanting and dancing like before to bless everyone.Jada wal

    "Dream on!"Unlike the rest, Jojo was an agent of justice, and it was only natural that she sided with Frank and Jada for saving her life!Incensed, the drunkard snapped, "You asked for it, brat!"He raised his fist, ready for a spring, but was instead sent flying in an instant!Everyone around was shocked. What just happened—divine intervention?!While they were left confused, the drunkard's friends were sent flying, groaning in agony and screaming about being haunted as they landed.Jada chuckled. "Leave it to Mr. Frankton to have fun. Most people wouldn't have come up with something like this."As for the others, they had no idea what was happening, unlike Jada. Hearing that the place was haunted and having seen how those people were sent flying for no reason, they all started to flee.Even Jojo's parents lost composure, scooping Jojo up and fleeing without telling Frank.Soon enough, Frank's group left, and Alda came up to him, smirking. "That was on purpose, right?"

    Frank could tell that the priestess and her fraternity were no villains, and so, he told them everything about the spiritron vein.And as expected, after hearing his story, the priestess did not think that he was lying—in fact, she felt sympathy for him. "Not treating humans as humans, even its host? It truly is evil! What a pity that my paltry skills can't destroy it!"Still, Frank remained curious. "I've told you everything I know. Shouldn't you tell me the source of your power too?"The priestess smiled. "I'm no angel, but I know a little courtesy. Come with me."With that, she stood up and started leading Frank up the mountain.The geezers behind them scrambled to their feet and followed, reasoning, "Let's think about this please, Your Excellency. He's an outsider—we can't reveal our secret to him!"The priestess simply laughed coolly. "Sure, then why don't you stop him? Let's see if you can."The geezers were left speechless right then, not because they were afraid to die,

    Naturally, there would definitely have been differing circumstances, since the priestess's group looked no different from normal.And there was what she said about survival bias, and it was a million to one odds that something like this would happen. Otherwise, everyone in contact with the meteorite would mutate!Frank then suggested, "Should I get someone to research it?""Absolutely not! It belongs to us—no one gets to be near it!"While the geezers were absolutely vehement against the idea, the priestess snapped, "Yours? Is your name written on it? It's true that our predecessors passed on a tradition to us, but none of us even understand if it would hurt people."The geezers were simply bemused. "How could you say that?""If it does, why didn't our ancestors notice it over the last thousand years?"The priestess smiled in wry amusement—being uneducated was a terrible thing. "They wouldn't have felt it because of the low average life expectancy. Just read the stats—even now

    The priestess took the ring, put on her mask, and started dancing.Halfway through, she suddenly threw it into the crater!She turned, ready to explain herself when she saw that Frank remained unaffected.That left her perplexed. "Aren't you worried that I'd take that ring for myself?"Frank chuckled. "I gave it to you, so I'm ready to lose it. It's not that important anyway!"The priestess smiled at Frank's unexpected generosity—she had certainly chosen wisely!Even as the thought crossed her mind, it happened—the ring shot out of the crater. But now, it was blindingly radiant and covered in runes that Frank did not recognize.Still, he could tell that it was useful for him and so asked, "How did you know this would work?"The priestess smiled. "I sensed it when I smelled the evil presence, and it felt familiar. I'm sure that it shares the same origins as the meteorite in that crater, so I tested it—I just didn't think it would work."Frank nodded. "Thanks!"The priestess sm

    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
