The Sorano family bodyguards promptly started the car, profoundly afraid of the Ascendant rank


    individual chasing after them and wiping them all out.


    "Ascendant rank... He''s actually Ascendant rank?!" Willy was traumatized, but soon, a profound pang


    of frustration struck him too.


    His family had Ascendant rank individuals under theirmand too. However, individuals of that


    caliber were one in a billion.


    Even as the third in line in the family, Willy would not get to order them around, and they would not do


    anything on a whim. not unless the head of the family gave the order.


    "Ugh."


    Willy could hear the groansing from the car roof just then.


    Once they were far enough from Noel''s mansion, Willy promptly barked at the chauffeur to stop the car


    and alighted.


    He realized in shock that despite having all his bones broken and his meridians snapped, Zam was still


    —miraculously—alive. With help, he would definitely live!


    Willy was joyful for a moment, but his frustration soon overcame him again.


    This was the first time ever in his life that someone did not cry begging for mercy after finding out that


    he was Willy.


    And now that he was not in danger of dying, his frustration grew further, clouding his thoughts.


    He had to flee between his legs, losing his bedpanion for the night and his dignity.


    He would not take this lying down, and his thoughts soon turn to revenge.

    But was there any way to have his family''s Ascendant rank individuals mobilize?


    He wanted Frank to understand his family''s true power.


    He wanted Frank to kneel and beg.


    Eventually, he turned toward the half-dead Zam, and a frightening idea sparked in his head.


    "Mr. Sorano? We have to go! The warden can still be saved!" A bodyguard turned toward Willy


    anxiously after finding that Zam was still breathing.


    However, Willy stayed silent.


    Then, he strode forward, taking a dagger from a bodyguard just then.


    "Mr. Sorano?!" The bodyguard turned pale, watching as Willy carried the dagger toward Zam.


    Still, Willy hid his dagger behind himself as he leveled a worried look at Zam. "Can you hear me,


    Grandpa Zam?" "Guh... Guh..." Zam tried to nod but could not, even as he leveled a look at Willy,


    urging him to take him to a doctor.


    Willy, however, shook his head in disappointment. "Grandpa Zam... Do you think the family would send


    our Ascendant rank individual after Frank Lawrence?"


    While Zam was left staring at him in confusion, Willy sighed.


    "Probably no, huh? I know—messing with anyone of Ascendant rank is costly." he murmured, his tone


    soon changing sharply as he chuckled. "But that''s not the same for you. If a famous man like you died


    to some anonymous kid, it would leave all of Morhen in shock, right?!"


    Zam''s eyes widened in rage and disbelief as if he had already anticipated Willy''s next move, but he


    could not speak even as his lips trembled.


    "Look, Grandpa Zam... I just can''t live this down. I spent so much money and effort on Noel York—I


    can''t fail now!"


    Willy sighed as his eyes shed venomously, and he abruptly whipped out the dagger and stabbed it


    into Zam''s throat. "Now die, for my sake!"
