That certainly made sense—a piece of shit like Ned would never encounter someone moreimpressive than Abel

If that young man was really as impressive as he bragged, why was he not famous?

With that in mind, Yed stared at Frank from the back, sneering coldly.

Eight million? More like poetic justice!

If Frank never insulted him, Yed would have been content with giving the conman beating andthrowing him out of his mansion.

However, Frank's pompous attitude had thoroughly left Yed incensed—and no one insulted theJankos and got away with it!

If anything, he was the one in the room who was most reluctant to let Ciril die.

Their fire-forged brother aside, if Ciril really died, an upheaval would ensue for the Jankos.

With Ciril's leadership as an Ascendant rank gone, the family's retainers would quickly disband andleave, while the rest of them would be reduced to a succulent chunk of meat that the other familieswould drool over.

At that point, forget their pursuit to rise as one of the Four Families of Morhen—their survival inMorhen would actually be called into question.

That was why Lothar was hoping that something was better than nothing.

Even if Frank was bragging endlessly and he had his misgivings about the boy, he did as told.

If Abel Loggins—Morhen's most famous healer—was helpless, whatever could he do?

As the servants brought everything Frank asked for, he said, "Everyone, keep your distance.”Without hesitation, he pinched one of the thin needles and projected his pure vigor, directing it tospiral around the tip of the needle.

“What...?"

Lothar's eyes widened in disbelief at the sight of Frank's technique.

Only Birthright ranks were capable of purifying vigor and projecting it.

The fact that this youth could do it meant he was one at his young age, which set him on the samelevel as the other heirs of the Four Families of Morhen!
