Chapter 782

Author: Chu
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

    "What?!" Kat scratched her head before asking Frank, "Then you can check me. Who knows if I'm some marital prodigy?""Not likely." Frank shook his head. "Hold out your hand.""Okay." Kat did so obediently."Listen closely," Frank said solemnly. "I'll be infusing my pure vigor into your body. If you can feel its presence, that means you have the disposition for martial arts. Hard work would be pointless otherwise.""Hold on, that sounds sketchy," Kat suddenly pulled her hand away while staring warily at Frank. "Are you taking advantage of me?""Well, if you're not doing it, then you can forget about it," Frank growled grumpily, his expression stiffening. It was the middle of the night, and this brat was still engrossed in her fantasies. And he certainly did not have any intention to entertain her whims!"Hey!" Seeing that Frank was getting fed up, Kat held out her hand and stopped staring at him suspiciously. "Just pulling your leg—can't you take a joke, old man?"Running int

    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
