Hux eased his knuckles as he snorted and nodded. "Fine. They're just students—I can let them go out of the kindness of my heart."

He needed to keep up appearances even if he was clearly being threatened.

And Frank obviously did not care about that as he turned toward Kat and the others. "You heard that? You can go."

"But what about you?"

Kat could see that Frank had done this to save them but was hesitant since she had doubted Frank, and leaving just like this left her guilty. He was now the very image of a hero one would see in movies, displaying strength and composure that left the girls worshipful toward him.

"Don't worry. Just head home with Nash—I'll be right behind you." Frank smiled faintly.

The way he spoke was no different from how Hux had the whole karaoke bar cleared out earlier, since the students would not be able to stomach what he was about to do.

Even Cid was frowning at that point and bellowing at the students, "What are you doing, just standing there?! Get out!

    Getting himself a chair and sitting down, Hux continued, "See, I came into this life to seek position and money, not to satisfy some mindless gratification. I'm no longer a greenhorn like you—I'm done staking my life for anything, and that's how I reached where I am now. "These days, if there's something I want, I'd use this," he said, tapping his head before holding up and brandishing a knuckle, "instead of this. So, are you interested, kid?""Sounds intriguing…" Frank rubbed his chin, while thinking to himself that Morhen's mobsters certainly were different from Riverton's—they could at least see the big picture."In that case, I'll be frank." He chuckled. "I sent those students away because I didn't want to be distracted, but because I'm ready to clean the house. But since what you offered intrigued me, I changed my mind."The hint of murderous intent in his smile left Hux stiffening, and his heart skipped a beat while cursing under his breath.Still, he knew he was lucky not

    Frank leveled a smile of amusement at Hux. "How about that? Feeling confident now?"The dust kicked up from the ravine left Hux and Cid coughing endlessly."W-Well… You'd probably have no problem helping me take over the Sunblazers," Hux said, wiping the sweat off his face as he sighed exasperatedly. "It's just… Being able to fight alone won't do, and people are going to disagree if I'm suddenly appointed the boss.""Then make them agree." Frank smiled. "The details are your responsibility—I'm sure you understand the perks of becoming boss, but surely you don't think you'd be spared from putting in work either, do you?"Hux pursed his lips and glared at his brother rebukingly just then.What was wrong with this kid?! He could have beef with anyone else, but it had to be this reaper…"By the way, what's your name?" Frank suddenly asked."Oh… I'm Hux Darman, Mr. Lawrence," Hux replied, suddenly addressing Frank differently."Hux Darman, huh? I'm…"Frank suddenly paused and cheek

    Hux bellowed at Cid right then, "It's all your fucking fault! Would I have messed with a fucking jinx like him otherwise?! No chance! See what you've done now?! All of the Sunblazers are getting caught up in your mess!""I didn't know!" Cid was left clutching his cheek, on the verge of tears.How could he have known that this would happen?! He was just chatting up some girl, only for some monster to get involved!It was no exaggeration to say that his luck was the worst.Still, Hux's anger soon eased and he assured Cid, "Look, that kid just might have what it takes. If he really could help me take over…""That means… we hit the jackpot?!" Cid was beaming.Hux chuckled. "Sure, just keep it between us—no one must know. I'll talk to the boss right now."-There was a 24-hour diner opposite the karaoke bar, and the students had gathered there at Kat's suggestion.They were all huddled against the window, keen to see what was going to happen.The girls were especially whispering e

    "Well…" Soren hesitated for a moment but eventually sighed and nodded. "Alright, I'll call my dad and see if he can help. But I can't make promises—he was really out of line, and Mr. Darman has a temper. At that point, even reasoning won't work.""It's fine." Kat forced a smile.With that, Soren walked over to a corner, whipping out his phone and pretended to be talking over the phone.Naturally, he did not call his father—he knew full well that asking his father for a favor like that would only earn him a scolding and nothing else.Having his father ask Hux for a favor? Winning the lottery was easier—Soren would otherwise not have held his tongue while Cid slapped him repeatedly.In the end, all he did was pretentious anyway, and who cared if Frank lived, especially after he stole Soren's thunder?!Glancing at the girls who still looked stricken with worry over Frank, his heart flared with jealousy.He returned them soon, and Kat hurried to him, asking, "How did it go?""It's

    "What?! That bastard really made it out?!"Soren was left stunned when he saw Frank standing on the other side of the road.He did not expect Frank to be fine because he never called his father, let alone ask his father to help.If anything, he was cursing Frank in hopes that he would die soon."Are you alright?" Kat was the first one to reach Frank as everyone left the diner."I'm fine." Frank nodded but soon frowned. "I told you to go home with Nash.""Kat's worried you'd get killed—she had us all waiting here." A girl strode up, smiling. "We're surprised you're fine, too… It seems that Mr. Darman is in a really good mood.""Good mood?" Frank pursed his lips. "I'm the one in a good mood. He'd be dead if I wasn't."Everyone traded looks of embarrassment at his words, with Mandy grinning. "You against Hux Darman? You're joking—he's the underboss of the Sunblazers with hundreds of men under his command.""Exactly. Don't think you get to strut just because you know how to throw

    Once Frank and Kat returned to the suburban cottage, they found Nash at the doorway, having waited for a while.He appeared anxious as he held his phone in his hand and breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw them.He walked up to them, smiling. "Mr. Lawrence, I just called Ms. Blue. I didn't think she'd bail you out so soon.""Oh, that wasn't necessary." Frank smiled in turn. "Call Ms. Blue again. Tell her she doesn't have to come over.""Oh, okay." Nash quickly made the call.However, Frank soon heard Frida's tone of exasperation. "Please pass the phone to Frank."Once Nash did so gingerly, Frida asked tiredly, "It's just been a day, and you've already gotten yourself into trouble?""It's not my fault." Frank chuckled, glancing at Kat beside him. "A bunch of fools were attacking Nash. I had to help.""Nash…?"Frida was stumped when Frank mentioned Nash and sighed heavily. "You don't have to worry about him. He's not all what he seems.""That so?" Frank raised a brow, as

    Even if neither Kat nor Nash would say it, both father and daughter cared for each other.Kat had stepped up for her father when he was hurt, despite supposedly being a rebellious adolescent and despite the consequences.It was the same for Nash, which was why Frank could be sure that Kat was just a little rebellious and not actually rotten.And it was normal behavior for girls her age."Oh, it's very late, Mr. Lawrence… Let's get you to bed. I've already cleaned a room for you."With that, Nash led Frank upstairs to the guest room.The furnishing was not particularly grand, but it was clean and everything necessary was inside."Is this to your satisfaction, Mr. Lawrence?" Nash asked apprehensively."It's good. Don't worry, I'm not that demanding." Frank nodded. "Thanks, Nash."Nash breathed a sigh of relief and bowed slightly as he closed the door. "You're most welcomed, and I should be thanking you instead—things would have turned bad for me and my daughter if not for you."

    Sneaking into a stranger's room late into the night, and sitting so boldly on his bed? Any man's imagination would be led astray by such a clear invitation!"Anyway, I'm sorry for bothering you this late at night." Kat composed herself before leveling a serious look at Frank. "Frank Lawrence, right? I'm here to actually ask for a favor.""I see," Frank replied, not bothered to press the issue before. "Go on. Tell me."Kat's eyes lit up right then. "Could you tell me why you're such an amazing fighter? Do you have some sort of superpower?""Superpower? What the heck is that?" Frank rolled his eyes. "I'm a martial artist, honed physically and mentally as a warrior. I'm strong enough to fight hundreds, let alone the paltry few at the karaoke bar.""Tch."Kat clicked her tongue doubtfully, convinced that Frank was boasting. "You really like to exaggerate, don't you? Can't you give it a rest?""It's not my fault if you doubt me." Frank shrugged. "You have no idea so you won't underst

    Drunken Moon felt an unusual power at the same time, and it seemed to reach out to her, urging her to chant a rhythmic incantation.Soon, the translucent form of a colossal deity appeared behind her, though she saw upon a closer look that it looked just like Frank, only that it was dressed more elegantly with robes of olden times!"My god… What is this?!" Jada exclaimed out loud.Drunken Moon was shocked too. "Does this mean that I can do this to summon you anytime in the future?""Strictly speaking, yes—but only if I have the time," Frank said, his voice deep yet resonant as if spreading from the bottom of the ocean.It felt at once mysterious but also carrying the might of the divine!"What about us?" Moxxi asked in curiosity.Frank did not answer, instead disappearing for a moment and returning in front of Moxxi as he reverted to his original form."I had no idea I had such an ability, and it's thanks to Drunken Moon for inspiring me," he said. "If she can do that, strictly

    Utterly dejected, Masked Man sighed. "Just do it."Frank laughed before asking in curiosity, "Why aren't you afraid of death anymore?"Masked Man sighed. "Perhaps it was just wishful thinking from the start, like some ignorant village hick thinking that a lottery ticket would make him the richest man in the world. But there's just no comparison… if only I'd just restrain myself and stick to spending my winnings, then this wouldn't happen at all."Frank smiled and nodded. "You're right. It's such a shame that you had to run into me… Come on, give it to me, and you'll have your wish."Masked Man then took off his mask and threw it to Frank.As Frank took it, he turned back toward the other man to see that it was still a void under the mask. But curiously, a strange sea of stars seem to shine within that void."You have the support of the best scientists in the world—I'm sure they would find out how this works. Now do it," he repeated.Frank nodded and waved his hand, and Masked Ma

    It went without saying that Masked Man was absolutely furious that Frank still belittled him after he demonstrated his powers.Hence, he did not wait to demand an apology and pointed at Frank.He laughed out loud as Frank disappeared at the very next instant as he expected, while everyone in the cottage was gaping in shock.What?! Did Frank just lose?Furious, Moxxi wheeled on Jada. "You were there! Why didn't you stop him?!"Jada could not argue, as she always believed that Frank always had a way out and was much more insightful than she was. That was why she usually would not argue against his plan.She just did not expect Frank to bite off more than he could chew this time!The others could not help worrying, the only exception being Alda."Calm down," she told them. "Why didn't Mr. Frankton's body blow up if his opponent succeeded? In the end, he's still playing with his food!"The ladies all traded glances, and it did make sense once they considered that.If Frank really

    Frank remembered with a start—so Masked Man was the one who wielded the power of the spiritron vein like himself and challenged him before."I really didn't expect you to come so soon. Let him go—this has nothing to do with him," he said.Masked Man simply smirked. "I remember you telling me that I can challenge you again, but only when you have the time. That's why I dealt with him just to spare you unnecessary bother."Frank shrugged. "He never was."Masked Man flung Lightning Man to the ground, striding toward Frank as he gloated. "You're going to regret not killing me before soon enough. You see, you're no match for me."Frank laughed out loud. "If you're really all that strong, why don't you have the composure of one? You begged pathetically as soon as I had your life in my hands—to be honest, it just cheapens anything you say. Even your words weigh nothing in that sense."Annoyed, Masked Man snapped, "Do you even know the value of a stiff upper lip? Either way, As long as I

    Jouri laughed. "He has such a long list of enemies that he really wouldn't know. Still, you could tell me their name, address, or appearance. That might help."Lightning Man shook his head. "I know nothing about him, only his face."He dropped to a crouch, his fingertips sparking with electricity, burning concrete as he drew a face of a shady man."That's about how he looks," Lightning Man said. "Watch out—he's really slippery."Frank nodded. "Don't worry about him, and remember what I said.""Don't worry. I will!"And with those words, Lightning Man turned to leave, sighing lengthily. He used to feel troubled over being too strong and having no match, but he did not need to now.However, who could have thought that Frank could be this powerful?Either way, this meant he would spend the rest of his life trying to surpass Frank, as he was like a natural disaster in human form. That would be much more difficult than finding someone better than him—as Frank was immovable just by

    Frank freed Lightning Man and landed. "Tell me, have you murdered innocents?"Lightning Man smiled, shaking his head. "Never, and not because I'm kind, but it's like asking who would be so bored that they'd butcher animals for fun."Frank snorted but nodded. "And that's why I didn't kill you. Now strike me with your lightning bolt."Lightning Man was initially taken aback.Presuming that Frank wanted a fair, clean fight, he exclaimed in delight, "I knew it! Your personality is just like mine!""Cut the crap and get it done already!" Frank snapped impatiently.And without further ado, Lightning Man summoned a lightning bolt, directing it straight at Frank.Frank stood his ground while launching another bolt straight toward the sky.It collided with Lightning Man's bolt, dispelling it right then!"Impossible!" Lightning Man blanched—he was already shocked that Frank could beat him, since he was lauded as being peerless, and none of the martial elites who fought Frank had ever

    Frank chuckled. "But it's not all that useful—for example, I don't really have night vision since my senses can pick up on incoming danger."Jouri smiled, shaking her head. "Having it is better than not having it."They continued their conversation for a while before Jouri turned off everything and headed out of the mansion with Frank.That was when someone approached from a distance, clapping as he walked toward them. "One would expect nothing less of the chief of Mystic Sky Guild—there's no end to the beauties flocking around him. And let me guess… She must be someone important too?""Who are you?" Jouri demanded coolly.The man smirked and wagged his finger at her. "That's not important—what matters is the youth beside you. Rumor has it that he's being like no other, invincible in Shagan and perhaps the world?"At those words, Frank realized where he was coming from—he was a martial arts fanatic, and once he heard about Frank, he traveled all the way to Shagan to challenge Fra

    Frank was not interested in telling the spiritron vein that and instead asked, "In other words, Jouri's upgrade is actually something you could've given me?"The dragon thought about it, nodding at first but soon shaking its head. "Yes, but also no. There are many things which I can't grant just because I want to… As for why, it's up to you to learn that in the future."Frank smiled but said nothing—the strong really loved their riddles instead of giving the full picture.Still, that was fine.Since the spiritron put it that way, he would most definitely get the full picture eventually.-Back in reality, there was a flash of golden light before silence returned.Jouri was left astounded—Frank had disappeared from the wooden stool, as if he never existed."What's going on?!" she exclaimed in confusion.All the data suggested that Frank would survive the experiment or would at least not die if it fell through.So why this?Not only would she have trouble explaining herself to

    Stepping out, Frank called Jouri to have her go over to the homestay cottage to get the hag's phone while he escorted Aisling Walls' parents there.Aisling burst into tears the instant she saw her parents and was at once hugging them while bawling.The chief ranger walked up to Frank, saying, "She's quite something. Fearless against injustice, a sobbing child with her parents."Frank nodded. "Both qualities that are inextricably connected, I suppose."After sending Aisling and her parents away, Jouri soon arrived and promptly sat down beside Frank. "I heard that Horace Gagne's mansion burned down, and the man himself died in the fire. Not only was no one else harmed, but all the evidence against him is exposed too. People are saying that he got his just deserts—that the mountain god was blessing them."Frank was not sure how he should react to that. "It's fine if they believed the paranormal, but why are you joining them?"Jouri chuckled. "Oh, I wouldn't have believed it either.
