"Please, Frank... I get it now! It''s all my fault, and I won''t ever do it again... Please, just let me live-"


    Crunch!


    As Gerry''s neck snapped audibly, his pleas stopped instantly.


    Ste''s breath was caught in her lungs and she almost fainted.


    Who was this war deity that they had just provoked? Could Frank actually be Transcendent rank?!


    Her family''s martial artists were tried and true elites too-not many across the East Coast could win against them, let alone in Norsedam!


    But Frank massacred them without even really making an effort!Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    As the lobby of Lanecorp Tower became eerily silent for a long while, Frank quietly spoke, "I will give you one chance-go home, and don''t mess with me ever again." Ste promptly turned in disbelief he was sparing her?


    Frank seemed to read her mind from her expression alone and waved her off.


    "I have no reason to kill you. Though I don''t mind ying along if you have a death wish. Oh, and another thing...''


    Frank shot her a cool look. "You have to pay the medical fees for hurting Lanecorp employees."


    With that, he strode away, while Ste was left smiling bitterly.


    She did not expect Frank to be so outrageously strong.


    Still, it begged the question-what would she tell her family after losing so many of their family''s martial artists?


    Soon, she left Lanecorp Tower, feelingpletely muddled and disembodied. It was a stark contrast from her haughty attitude when she first strode through those front doors.


    Just two days after the incident, the Favonis and the Bearsons received word of what happened, and the Favonis were livid.


    However, they did not me Ste


    for losing so many good men-they insisted Frank was using some dirty move to massacre their men. How else would they be wiped outso easily?!


    It was a clear act of provocation.


    Despite Ste talking herself hoarse trying to dissuade her father and brother from messing with Frank, they stubbornly held on to their opinion.


    With the Bearsons inciting them endlessly, the Favonis absolutely loathed Frank.


    All eyes were on Jaden Faovni. He was not even thirty, but he was one of the best among all East Coast youths, and an Ascendant rank second only to Ehud Lionheart.


    Being a rare martial arts prodigy and


    reaching second in Skyrank, he sent all of the East Coast into a frenzy after announcing that he woulde to Zamri and take down


    Frank.


    On one hand was a mysterious martial elite who killed over thirty Favoni martial artists, while on the other was a famed martial elite who came second in Skyrank. Many had rushed to Zamri, intent on watching the fight.


    And with the Bearsons and Favonis directing sentiment, Frank became subject to endless nder.


    At first, he was a mysterious martial


    elite who yed thirty Favoni martial elites, but eventually, he became a poisoner who ensnared those


    martial elites, having no sense of shame or honor.


    Either way, no one believed that Frank killed those men through sheer power, and the duel turned from a fair fight between champions to Jaden''s campaign of righteousness. The hype was absolutely tangible.
