Frank coincidentally happened to be at the same hospital.Noticing the bloody mess that was Nash, he barged into the operating room to save Nash, chasing out all the other doctors. There was no telling what punishment Nash would have been subjected to if not for Frank, but he was still a bloody mess—all his nails were torn off, and every bone was broken.Frank could not help feeling regret and rage—Nash looked a decade older now!If only he did not send Nash to Sorano Estate!"Willy Sorano!" Once Frank had the name of the culprit after Nash told him everything, he called Loggins Apothecary to transfer Nash over for better care.Then, he strode out of the operating room, standing off against Ghent Loeb and the many Sorano bodyguards he brought.Already furious, Frank was not polite at all, though he remained calm. "Get the fuck out of here, and I'll let you live. Refuse, and you will die.""Bastard…" Ghent actually felt a small pang of panic from the death aura spilling from
Ghent snorted coldly. "How dare you, Frank Lawrence! That's a man of the Sorano family you just killed!"He leapt into the air, running along the wall as he charged down the hallway at Frank like an eagle.His fingers were outstretched, with red pure vigor swirling around them like claws, tearing shrilly and audibly through the air. The Sorano bodyguards had to clasp their hands over their ears!It was not surprising that Ghent was confident of himself, as he was Ascendant rank.However, he was just only in the early phase—it really was not enough against Frank!"Hmph. You're asking for it…"Frank did not turn—he already knew Ghent was streaking toward him.He steadied himself, inhaling deeply before turning.Then, he launched a punch swirling in golden pure vigor that met Ghent's claw attack.Fist and finger collided, the terrible shockwave that ensued, quickly knocking everyone off balance.Blood splattered across the hallway walls, leaving a sight of gore.When everyone
Even before the two bodyguards at the front could react, Frank had leapt up. Then, seizing them by their throats, he crushed them with an audible crunch!"Go! Kill him!"Seeing that Frank was attacking, the bodyguards certainly knew it was the end for them.Since they were not getting away anyway, they pulled out their machetes and clubs as they charged toward Frank."Hmph!"Frank handily threw the two dead bodyguards at them, running along the wall as they charged down the hallway and instantly leaping behind them."Trying to run? No chance," Frank told the bodyguard who was ready to flee. It was the last thing the bodyguard ever heard.That same bodyguard had bellowed at the others to charge at Frank, intent on using them as a diversion while he ran away.Thud!Frank punched him in the throat, breaking it and watched as he collapsed on the floor in terror, no longer breathing.Seeing that Frank had cut off their escape, the Sorano bodyguards could not stay calm at all and
Jim had the right idea—Frank had gone to Sorano Estate for payback.Every time he remembered the torture Nash had been put through only further fueled his rage, murderous intent, and profound guilt.Not only did the man allow him to stay in his house, but he also got hurt because of him.If Kat found out, even she would surely not react well to him."You're going to die, Willy Sorano!" Frank growled, clenching his fist as his eyes flashed with fury.He would make everyone pay for what they did to Nash, be it Willy or anyone else who was involved in torturing Nash!He would not hold back, even if it meant war against the Soranos!He strode out of the hospital, getting into a taxi that took him straight to Sorano Estate, since Helen had left in his car.He just so happened to run into the same bodyguard Nash spoke of."What are you doing here, kid?" the bodyguard asked loftily.Just as Nash had said, he was no more than a glorified doorman, but he was utterly despicably haughty
Frank certainly had nothing to say to that scumbag and crushed his throat with an audible crunch.He dropped the bodyguard in a pool of his own blood, his eyes wide open even as he died, still having no idea how that happened.How could someone really cause trouble at Sorano Estate?"Phew…"With that done, Frank strode up to the front gates of Sorano Estate, inhaling deeply before kicking it.The towering steel gates collapsed along with a portion of the wall attached to it."What? What was that?""Earthquake?"The Sorano bodyguards all quickly assembled at the gates and were left staring in shock at the young man who strode out from the dust, his expression impassive.They then froze when they saw their colleague lying dead nearby in a pool of blood."W-What the hell?""A-Are we under attack?""No way, for real?"Even as the bodyguards traded glances from how ridiculous the whole thing was, the young man spoke. "Bring Willy Sorano to me."His words were calm, but there w
The kid was being serious!The Sorano bodyguards all panicked even as they stared at Frank's calm demeanor. He just killed the bodyguard captain with a single strike, and he recently became a vigor wielder…He was as formidable as the Sorano retainers, and he was not someone they could hope to win!"Go… get the retainers!"One of the bodyguards quickly turned to flee, and Frank simply watched him go without a word.That was when someone shouted at him, "Don't get so full of yourself, you prick! You're a dead man the moment you came!" It was one of the bodyguards, who could not stop his outburst as he watched the bodyguard captain drop lifelessly to the ground."Hmm…?"Frank turned toward the bodyguard, locking eyes with him and asking just half a meter away, "You just called me a dead man?"The bodyguard gulped, regretting standing out just then.He glanced at the hundred over Sorano bodyguards behind him, but none of them were attacking Frank.It was simply laughable."
Frank remained impassive as he stared at the trembling Sorano bodyguard. "Your five minutes is over. Since you're not bringing Willy Sorano over, you can take me to him."He picked that bodyguard merely because he was the obvious coward—the more afraid they were to die, the easier they were to control.Gutsy ones would only waste more of his time."What? Mr. Sorano?" The cowardly Sorano bodyguard turned toward the other bodyguards hesitantly.However, they were clearly afraid that Frank would just kill their cowardly colleague and then turn his sights on them.They just worked here, and they certainly did not want to die!And while Frank's only opinion of the man was 'coward', the man could not be blamed.The Soranos were not a dynasty of martial artists like the Lionhearts, and their only real muscle were their retainers.And while the Sorano bodyguards' job title was bodyguard, they were really just your glorified security officers. They only took the job because it paid well
In around ten minutes, Frank found himself staring at a gigantic luxury mansion with over seven luxury cars lining the courtyard.Each of them were limited editions that would invoke considerable envy if seen in public—from the looks of it, they were Willy's very own collection.He then alighted without further harassing the cowardly Sorano bodyguard. He had a bone to pick with someone else, and he only killed before in rage and to establish himself.Now that he had found Willy's mansion, he had no reason to do it—he never liked killing and was always tolerant toward those who knew their place."Go." He waved off the cowardly Sorano bodyguard.The cowardly Sorano bodyguard actually thought he was going to die and was delighted that Frank did not kill him.After all, nothing could be more delightful than cheating death, and he even thanked Frank profusely, even though he was an intruder who barged into Sorano Estate.Frank was left shaking his head in bemusement—the standard of b
