The stairs inside the building had already copsed, and no one could go up from there.
Frank simply scaled the handrail that remained with the agility of a monkey and leapt up to the fifth floor
in just half a minute.
"Mona! Winter!" he shouted as he released a burst of pure vigor to disperse the thick smoke.
"Frank! Over here!" A meek shout from Mona could be heard from the lecture hall down the hallway.
Frank rushed toward it, running along the wall to leap over a wall of mes, bounding through the fire
and promptly pulling both Mona and Winter into his arms.
While Winter had passed out, Mona looked up anxiously at him. "We couldn''t get out. The stairs were
on fire!"
"Just hold on tight!" Frank eximed.
His vigor charging in his meridian nexus, he released a violent burst of pure vigor from his palm, parting
the sea of mes before him and the ckened walls behind it.
Bang!
Outside the campus gates, Jean looked up, stunned by the violent explosion.
She then saw the huge hole blown off the wall of the fifth floor, just before a person carrying two others
in each arms leapt out of it!
"Isn''t that... No!!!" Jean screamed even as he sped a hand over her mouth in horror.
At the same time, Frank barked, "Five-Peat Archaeus: Phantom Stride!"
All his pure vigor converged on his feet in an instant, unleashing a burst of wind.
At the same time, Frank moved at extreme speed while carrying both girls, leaping from debris to
debris as he jumped down.
Eventually, he rolled as hended, sessfully bringing both girls down from the fifth floor unscathed!
"Wow, that was so cool!" Mona''s face was covered in soot, but she whistled in excitement.

Winter stirred and saw Frank in front of her as soon as she opened her eyes. "Huh? Frank?"
Frank nodded at her. "Yeah. Don''t worry, I''m here now."
Winter smiled, assured since Frank was the coolest knight in shining armor ever.
"Tut, tut." The young man in a white suit approached Frank from the back.
The ck-d men from before arrived as well, slowly encircling Frank and the two girls.
"Frank Lawrence, I presume?" The young man smiled, pping as he nced at the crumbling
building. "You''re good, I''d give you that—and here I was doubting if you actually did kill Bocek Ocean
before."
"Who are you?" Frank growled, slowly rising to his feet, the coldness in his eyes palpable.
"Me?" The young man pointed at himself with a faint smile. "I''m the son of Dahok Ocean, chief of Sage
Lake Sect. You can call me Maron."
Then, rubbing his brow, he sighed. "Oh, Frank... I don''t know how you killed Bocek and Quinn, but
you''ve really done it now. Did you think that the Sage Lake Sect wouldn''te after that?"
