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 Sunzers," 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 bing boss, but surely you don''t think you''d be spared from putting in work either, do


    you?"


    Hux pursed his lips and red 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 cheekily changed his own name. "I''m Vicky Lawrence. Now run along and


    speak with your boss—tell him to make time for a handover. Naturally, if he''s not happy about that, I''m


    ready to challenge him anytime."


    "Vicky?" Hux was left pursing his lips again at the name—that was a woman''s name!


    If that really was the kid''s name, it was a little.


    "What, do you have something to say?" Frank narrowed his eyes, seeing that Hux was suspicious


    about the name he gave.


    "No, no, no, of course not," Hux quickly said, pausing for a moment as he frowned. "Look, Mr.


    Lawrence, my boss really isn''t your typical mobster. His family is pretty important, and it won''t be easy


    making demands of such a man."


    "Not a problem," Frank said, nodding. "Just do as I''ll tell you—set up a meeting for us in a couple of


    days, and you don''t have to tell me what to say. I know what to do."


    "Alright, I''ll do as you say." Hux nodded, exasperated but refraining from speaking up.


    He had never encountered that many Birthright ranks, but having climbed all the way to his current


    position, he knew which people he should mess with, and which he should not.


    It was a matter of thought if they wanted him dead, and he really could not afford to challenge such


    freaks.

    Moreover...


    Hux gulped as a thrill seized him—he had been meaning to be boss for a while.


    Sess aside, he could just say it was all Frank''s fault for coercing him.


    His mood improved considerably at that thought.


    Just then, Cid was scowling at Frank as he left. "What are we going to do, Hux? Are we really doing as


    he said?"


    "You have the cheek to ask?!"


    Incensed, Hux pped Cid across the face right then—he had been holding back for a while now, and


    he only could not do it earlier because Frank was there with them!
