Ghost, who had been so pompous and even vowed to conquer the world, had died from just a single blow, just like that?!
Skyler thought she was imagining things and rubbed her eyes repeatedly.
Still, nothing changed—Frank was still standing by her side, while Ghost's massive, bleeding body was really on the ground, split in two.
"Oh…"
Skyler gasped as her mind finally accepted reality.
That was scary!
She turned toward Frank, whom she was convinced would be trampled to death, only for things to turn out so weird and unreal.
Who on earth was this man?
And after spacing out for a while, she heard him speak. "Get up. You're fine now."
"Oh… Okay."
Skyler rose to her feet a little clumsily.
As she did and dusted herself, she froze again as she realized what was happening. "No, but my bones were all…"
She looked up to see that Frank remained unaffected.
"I cured you." He nodded slowly, seeing the question on her face. "Can you tell me about your boss… this group called Torrent?"
However, his calm response sent Skyler flinching, and she could feel a chill down her spine.
They must have done well staying hidden that Jouri never noticed.
"Grey Eyes, Crane, Ghost, the Umbrella Priest, Thunder Lion, and finally Torrent."
Skyler then listed several names in one go. "Those are the members of Torrent… and I know for a fact that right now, Crane, the Umbrella Priest, Thunder Lion, and Torrent are still alive."
"Crane…" Frank repeated that name, as Jouri had mentioned him once—he wielded the power of the spiritron vein too.
On the other hand, he had never heard of Thunder Lion or the Umbrella Priest, let alone Torrent.
"Oh, by the way…"
Skyler smacked herself on the head as she remembered. "The Umbrella Priest's real name is Adonis Pombo."
