Female NovelSeeing that Maron actually knew his place, Silverbell nodded impassively. "In that case, your application to the Martial Alliance isnow forfeited. Only approach us in Morhen again if one of yours actually reaches Ascendant rank. Now, if you'll excuse me, |have other matters to attend to."
She started to drift away, but Maron stopped her again. "Please wait, Lady Silverbell."
"What?" Silverbell's expression cooled, staring pointedly around at the Sage Lake Sect apprentices. "Is there anything else youhave to add?"
"Certainly." Maron strode forward, shaking his head. "Like you said, my sect's right is rightly forfeited. But won't you agree it's apity when my father just happens to be incapacitated, and the chance that Cloudnine Sect fought for us would only come towaste?"
“What are you trying to say?" Silverbell growled impatiently.
“Patience, Lady Silverbell." Maron smiled politely. "Even if current members of my sect have failed, my friend here is willing tojoin and help us fight for this chance, and he's a formidable one."novelbin
"Your friend?" Silverbell frowned as she turned toward Frank without knowing but soon shook her head. "I remember saying youonly have one chance, Mr. Maron. You failed to take it, and asking for a third party's help is against the rules."
"Come now, Lady Silverbell!" Maron exclaimed in dramatic misery. "What's another match when you're that strong? My friendhere comes from distant lands too, and it won't do for him to leave in disappointment. Can't you give us another chance for thesake of Cloudnine Sect?"
Before Silverbell could say another word, he threw up a palm. "| swear this will be our last chance. We will never bother youagain if we lose!"
Silverbell certainly wanted to say no but felt that curious sensation from before as she glanced at Frank again, who remainedimpassive.
After some thought, she nodded despite herself. "Fine. Seeing that your father is unduly incapacitated, | can give you anotherchance. But this shall be the last."
“Of course! Certainly!" Maron exclaimed delightedly, his eyes narrowing as he returned to Frank. "I'm sure | don't have toelaborate, do I? If you want your ladies to survive, go all out and bring that pompous bitch down a peg. If you don't..."
Maron trailed off but raised his phone to show a black-clad man smiling as he tore through Helen's sleeve, baring her fair skin."No—!" Helen screamed and flinched in fear, while the black-clad man laughed and stood akimbo.
The laughter left Frank clenching his knuckle so hard it could break.
Maron chuckled darkly in turn. "If youlose, the guild will have their way withthem... No woman ever Survives, justso you know." The content is onnoveldrama.org! Read the latestchapter there!
