Frank exclaimed, "Pombo? Now that's a rare last name… Catchy too!"
Cicero was left laughing himself silly even as Adonis introduced himself. "Shouldn't you be running instead of worrying about last names, brat?"
"Do people like you never understand the concept of a stiff upper lip?"
On the other hand, Adonis shook his head before turning back to Frank. "I'll be frank—I like you, kid. What a shame that we're on different sides…"
Then, he appeared perplexed, suddenly noticing that Cicero was beaten to a pulp in his own house. "Wait, you're not here to help him?"
Frank shook his head. "I'm going to kill him, his wife, and their so-called friends. It's embarrassing to say it, but I'm not on the side of justice—just a pretender using it as an excuse to satisfy my vanity!"
"What?!" Adonis laughed at Frank's words right then. "I've met many conceited fools, but someone as conceited as you are is a first for me! Come on, show me what you've got!"
With those words, Adonis abruptly took to the skies and waved his hand.
A ton of people suddenly materialized out of nowhere and charged right at Frank!
Even Cicero blanched as he watched. "The entire cabal came? For just one man?"
Adonis laughed again when he heard Pombo. "Have you forgotten our tenet? We will all be fighting when we encounter a worthy opponent. After all, what if we're suddenly blindsided?
"Such occurrences are all too common—we must simply be prudent."
Cicero smirked. "In that case, good—at least that arrogant prick would understand that there's someone always better!"
"Really?"
However, he could judge that he realistically had no hope of escaping.
That was because Frank's power was right there for all to see, and even Adonis could not just ignore him!
No, this was impossible! He was the most powerful being in existence, and… Bullshit! The most powerful being in existence?! He appeared no different from a plain human compared to Frank!
Even as his mindset changed with a lengthy sigh, Adonis asked, "Do you understand what you've just done? You've totally crushed my confidence—millions have failed to do that!"
Frank chuckled. "Quit flattering yourself. Who do you even think you are? Millions couldn't crush your confidence?
"Let me be frank—you're simply ignorant. Or perhaps even more than that, because you don't even know what's going on in the little corner of your world."
He was in front of Adonis even as he finished, whispering into his ear, "To be honest, you're only human!"
