"A curious balance..." Frank hung his head—the phrase itself was indeed curious.
To everyone else, Frank's father, the Lord of the Southern Woods, was a hero who subdued all of Talnam by himself.
But in reality? Even Frank could not put his finger on it.
Even as he ran into a ton of trouble through the years, he had the feeling that his father was playing an elaborate gof chess. And Frank himself, as well as Silverbell, the chief of the Martial Alliance, were both just pieces in his game.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo one could tell what Godwin Lawrence and Fenton were actually up to, even as Frank was now increasingly aware that both geezers were not as down-to-earth as they looked.
While it was a pain to think about that, Frank was not bothered since he did not believe his old man would hurt him.
As such, he prepared to deal with his problems at hand instead.
Even as Madfist looked on, he took out the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom that glimmered with an eerier red hue.
After shesitation, he peeled off one the five petals and closed his eyes as he refined the healing essence within with pure vigor.
Soon, a thumb-sized drop of crimson appeared at the center of his palm, and after shesitation, he swallowed the extract. There was a bang as the essence of the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom struck Frank's meridian nexus, and their Audi was sent swerving, almost hitting the guard rail.
Madfist could see in turn that Frank's cheeks were flushed, and he was sweating all over his brow.
He turned toward the wooden box in surprise, more or less realizing that Frank was holding the Bloodcrane Spiritbloom.

That, or she would die soon.

"Shit! Don't you know how to drive?!" a middle-aged man in a BMW bellowed as he moved up alongside Madfist's Audi. "Exactly!" The woman who dressed flamboyantly and sat beside the middle-aged man was snapping at Madfist too. "Don't drive if you don't know how to drive! And you're so old, What, is this a circus trick or something?!" Content belongs to en.kikistories"Guh!" Meanwhile, Frank was clenching his teeth, but he still could not stop the flaring essence inside him.
At that moment, a shot of pure vigor was launched out of his body, hitting and bursting the tires of the BMW.
"Argh!!!" both the middle-aged man and his woman screamed, just as the remaining tires screeched.
Then, the BMW lost control and struck the right guard rail.
"I didn't know that you could be that petty." Madfist smiled at Frank in amusement, seeing that Frank was calming down. "Phew..." Frank was in turn breathing out turbid breath, and his eyes flashed coldly as he opened them.
