Naturally, it went without saying what would happen if Dahok lost to Maron.
Quinn strode up just then, exclaiming, "Master Ocean! Please, if you trust me, then you can trust Frank Lawrence too!" Glancing at Frank, she assured Dahok confidently, "Frank is capable of stopping the coup, and he can do it alone!" Dahok frown despite her assurance. He was slightly swayed, but he still could not trust Frank completely as he had never seen the man fight.
"I can vouch for him too, Master Ocean." One of the Sage Lake Sect apprentices nodded, suddenly speaking up. "That bast—I mean, Mr. Lawrence—was evenly matched against Lady Silverbell, chief of the Martian Alliance. No, scratch that... He defeated Lady Silverbell!" Turning toward the other apprentices, he asked loudly, "You all saw that, right?" The other Sage Lake Sect apprentices nodded repeatedly, speaking out in confirmation with their fellow apprentice.

"What?!" Dahok exclaimed in turn.
There was no reason for the Sage Lake Sect apprentices to lie. but the young man before him really defeated Silverbell?! Silverbell was a one in a billion when it comes to swordcraft, even achieving Birthright rank in her twenties—it would be no exaggeration to label her a monster.
And yet, Frank Lawrence bested her?! With that in mind, Dahok no longer hesitated.
Taking Quinn's phone, he called Jorg.
"Hello? Master Ocean? | thought you were incapacitated and resting." Jorg answered the call from the basement of Salazar House, where he kept Helen, Vicky, Kiki, Winter, and Mona after abducting them from Riverton.
"Maron poisoned me! He was trying to kill me!" Dahok yelled over the phone right then..
"What?!" Jorg's nonchalant expression stiffened, and he soon frown and growled, "Who the fuck put him up to it?!" "That doesn't matter!" Dahok quickly said. "Just remember—don't lay a finger on your hostages or allow any harm to come to them, you hear?!" "Yes, Master Ocean!" Jorg replied, but he soon frowned in hesitation. "Wait, shouldn't we return to the enclave right away to help?" "No," Dahok replied after a brief pause. "I can stop this coup on my own. Just make sure those hostages are safe!" "Yes, sir!" Still, as Jorg hung up and glanced at Helen, Vicky, Kiki, Winter, and Mona who were all staring fixedly at him, he sighed dejectedly. "Fucking blue-balled..." Be that as it may, Dahok’s place as the sect chief was now above question.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe never revealed if he was hurt, but made it clear that he alone can stop the coup.
That was enough to give the cutthroat guild pause—even if they were determined to side with Maron in the coup, they still needed to consider Dahok's health.
After all, Dahok was Birthright-pinnacle—the strongest individual within Sage Lake Sect.
On the other end, Frank breathed a huge sigh of relief once Dahok hung up.
Soon, his relief was replaced by exhilarating delight—now free of his hostage burden, he was like a tiger that had escaped its cage.
Those little shrimps of Sage Lake Sect never had any hope of stopping him anyway! © Privacy and cookie settings Managed by Google. Complies with IAB TCF. CMP ID: 300
