NovelEnglish"However, you insolently slayed Zam Sorano, the head steward of the Sorano family, and incurred their wrath.
Your fate is hence sealed." Frank paused at Gus' words. "Zam Sorano? The geezer who barged into Noel York's house that night with Willy here?" Gus stood, his hands clasped behind his back as he nodded. "Indeed." "No, there's been a mistake." Frank shook his head. "I'll admit to slaying Hubert Sorano, because he disregarded my warnings and insulted me. But | didn't slay Zam Sorano." "Hmm.?" Gus appeared hesitant, raising a brow. "Well, Hubert is just smistress’ child. If it's just him, | have no reason to get involved..." He could tell that Frank's rank was quite high and had no reason to lie given the circumstances.

"Believe what you want to," Frank replied, calmly shaking his head. "I only sent Zam Sorano flying but did not kill him—if his injuries had been tended to in time, he'd have survived." "Quit your sophistry!" Willy bellowed. "And your five seconds are up—Ghent Loeb, kill Gavin Lane right now!" "Stop!" Jade leapt forward, pleading, "Please, Mr. Sorano. It's all Frank's fault! Don't take it out on us— we're innocent!" "So what if you are?!" Willy bellowed. "He's your in-law, and he resorted to deception while refusing to accept the punishment for his crimes! Do it, Ghent!" "Stop!" a cold voice bellowed behind Willy just then.
It was Gus, whose cool gaze was fixed on Frank. "Zam was my mentor, and | have cto avenge him. And if you claim you didn't kill him. Then who did it?" "I wouldn't know. You should be asking the Soranos instead," Frank replied calmly.
He had been ready to strike but quickly composed himself seeing that Gus placed more importance on Zam's murderer.
"Hmph. Let's see if you really didn't!" Gus barked and suddenly leapt into the air, streaking toward Frank like a raptor.
Hmph." Frank snorted in turn.
With a burst of pure vigor that blew away the rope blinding him, he directed the Five-Peat Archaeus through his veins, and a projection of a roaring together shot away from him.

He may have completed Birthright rank now, but he could not afford to be careless against an Ascendant rank.
Every ounce of his pure vigor bursting away from him, he charged his fist and unleashed a thunderous punch.
Bang! The two golden bursts of pure vigor erupted violently as they collided, and all of Laneville rumbled endlessly as if an earthquake had struck.
