"That's right. I don't die that easily!"
A voice boomed, and a towering figure opened the thirty-foot tall doors of the memorial hall as he strode in.
Naturally, it was none other than Frank, who had rushed to the memorial hall from the slums of South Zamri.
"Huh?!"
"What?!"
Everyone watched in astonishment as Frank strode down the center of the hall toward the crystal casket at the center.
His cheeks were flushed, his expression nonchalant. He definitely looked sharp in his suit on top of that—a far cry from his miserable self just a few days ago.
Smirking, he strode atop the crystal coffin with a faint smile as he looked around at the guests gaping at him.
"H-He's not dead?!"
"Is he starting an uprising here?!"
"The insolence!"
His pompousness certainly left the hall in an uproar.
Not only was he alive, but he strode into the memorial hall while everyone looked, even standing on top of the crystal casket containing the commissioner's corpse!
And of all of them, Elder Fango was the most shocked to see Frank alive and kicking. "That brat is actually alive…?!"
He stared fixedly at Frank, as if to pierce Frank with his eyes.
The death pill he had given Frank three days ago was the real thing—Frank was definitely supposed to die in three days, and Stanley had even made a point to show that he still had the antidote earlier.
So how did Frank survive?!
The look of bewilderment on Elder Fango's face just then certainly did not befit the usual haughty appearance he maintained as an elder of the Martial Alliance.
"Wait, what?"
The propman was left confused, unsure of what to do with the USB stick he was given.
Stanley snapped right then, "Frank Lawrence! Your three days are over—"
"Shut up."
Frank raised a hand, stopping Stanley before he could finish. "Stanley Durban, mayor of Zamri, you are guilty of conspiring with Josh Dellon and the Lionhearts! Not only did you fake the commissioner's death to frame me, but you also had him abducted and commandeered his men to attack me! How do you plead?!"
"What?!" Stanley's face fell at Frank's accusation.
In fact, it was such a bombshell that even Elder Fango was shocked. "What is the meaning of this, Mr. Mayor?"
After all, kidnapping a commissioner and commandeering his forces were all capital crimes punishable by death!
