Gus went all out from his very first strike, and Frank met his blows unflinchingly.

Their fight was beyond the realm of an average Joe's understanding—each blow was as swift as a shadow and as lethal as a viper's fang... And they exchanged over thirty blows in no tat all! "What?!" On the other hand, Willy was left staring on in shock as both Frank and Gus proved evenly matched, even having a foreboding sensation right then.

Then, after over fifty blows, Gus leapt backward away from Frank, taking a moment to calm his erratic breathing and staring at the other man fixedly.

"I'm surprised." He nodded. "You're not Ascendant rank, but you already boast such immense strength. | can already see that if you wanted my mentor dead, you wouldn't have to resort to underhanded measures such as slashing him through the neck with a dagger." Pausing, Gus then turned toward Willy and growled icily, "You have explaining to do, Willy Sorano." "W-What do you mean, explaining?" Willy snapped in defiance. "He killed your mentor! There's no denying it!" Seeing Willy's denial, Gus' eyes suddenly narrowed as he unleashed a burst of pure vigor, pulling the bodyguard standing beside Willy toward him.

Glaring icily into the man's eyes, he asked, "Tell me, how did my mentor die?" The bodyguard was stunned and turned to Willy in reflex before staying silent.

And as an Ascendant rank, Gus was able to catch the bodyguard's movement and interpret it accordingly.

It seemed that there was something fishy about Zam's death, and Willy was most definitely involved.

Flinging the bodyguard away, Gus then turned toward Frank. "Well, you're innocent regarding my mentor's death, but aren't you still culpable for maiming him and for the death of Hubert Sorano?" "Indeed | am," Frank admitted without flinching.

"At least you show mettle. In that case." Gus snorted, musing to himself for a moment before turning toward Willy. "Since you've insulted the Sorano family and we can't just let it slide, why not apologize to Willy here, and we'll let bygones be bygones?" "What?!" Willy was left glaring at Gus in furious disbelief. "What is the meaning of this?!" "It's exactly what it means." Gus waved him off, not bothered to explain himself. "This is the end of it. Hubert Sorano was asking for it, while I'll be personally investigating my mentor's death. At worst, Frank's crwas accidentally slaying a member of the family, but since Hubert is a mistress's child, it really is no issue. Also..." Gus looked around at the Lanes as he added icily, "Don't breathe a word about this, or each of you would have breathed your last." "Of course!" Helen agreed before the others could.

Fleur was ready to argue but had to hold back when she saw the warning look Gus shot her.

After all, the Soranos had spoken—another word from her, and she would be killed in an instant.

Naturally, she was left seething that everything ended on such a sloppy note, with their blgbeing foiled! Beside Fleur, Luna was even madder. However, she did not throw a tantrum either since anyone who argued at this point would be an enemy of the Soranos and the Ascendant rank Gus.

As such, she could only glare at Helen with flaring spite.

"What do you say, Frank?" Gus asked just then.
