Zorn had no idea how Frank had managed to elude his observation before, though he was still relieved after sensing the true extent of Frank’s strength. While a full-fledged Birthright rank was strong, Frank was still no match for him!
“Die!!!” Zorn bellowed, putting all his strength behind his strongest strike and not wanting further trouble.
Whether he killed Frank banked on this..
Naturally, he was only doing this because he saw that Frank was really to die defending Gene.
If Frank decided to dodge instead, Zorn’s strike would hit Gene instead, and he would definitely be a dead man.
As such, if Frank wanted Gene to live, he must take the full brunt of his blow!
Black and white pure vigor was projected out of thin air from Zorn’s palm, mixing into a grayness that ignited a storm.
The entire building was shaking-such was the most powerful blow of an Ascendant rank.
“Hmph…”
Frank had no intention of dodging anyway.
He watched as Zorn approached with his violent strike, resolved to meet it with his own.
After all, he would like to see how strong the Dyadese technique really was.
Feeling the Five-Peat Archaeus running through the meridian cycles in his body, Frank took a deep breath and focused his pure vigor on his right hand. Soon, a bright glow appeared at the center of his palm, and one could seem to hear the flowing of a stream.
“Mirages? His martial technique actually conjures mirages?!”
Zorn was left staring in astonishment, but he could not back down now.
Pushing his surging power, he directed every bit of energy he had into his outstretched palm, hoping that it would take Frank down instantly!
“Cloud Valley.”
Frank finally looked up even as Zorn closed in, his expression impassive as he breathed the name of the technique.
Zorn did a double take as he seemed to see a valley that stretched on for hundreds of miles, breathing out a tide of clouds toward him.
His strike seemed to fade in the whiteness, crushed by the might of the valley.
Soon, his palm, his arm, and then his entire body was pulverized even as he looked on in fear.
“T-That’s Birthright rank…?!” That was all he could exclaim in shock as darkness overcame him, and he could no longer feel anything.
Even Gene could see that Zorn did not even last one turn against Frank.
His full-power blow was no more than child’s play against the horrific shockwave left in the wake of Frank’s palm strike.
As a matter of fact, he did not even
have time to scream as Frank’s
smack reduced him into a puff of bloody mist, scattered amid the hallway.
In the distance, Bob and Rob returned, leading a large group of men, ready for revenge.
Nonetheless, they dropped to
knees audibly along with their
strike, fear and confusion showing on their faces.
weapons when they saw Frat
Boom!
The entire building seemed to lean to the side just then, with the rebar in the walls screaming with a horrible screech.
“The whole building is collapsing!” someone yelled, and everyone in the building scampered as they fled.
