Chapter 2458
Frank and Dawn could not refuse the couple's enthusiasm, with Jojo's dad bringing them a couple of lamb skewers.
Smiling, he asked, "Are you two in a relationship or already married?"
Dawn quickly shook her head as she took one. "There's a misunderstanding. We're just friends."
Jojo's mother giggled. "Even if you're just friends, I'm sure you're considering the possibility?"
Dawn blushed, at a loss for words.
That was when a drunkard wobbled toward them, leering at Dawn through
muddled eyes and immediately feeling a pang of lust.
Mistaking that he was at a nightclub because of the music, he came up to her and giggled, "Come on, girl! Let's drink!"
Frank glowered and snapped, "Go to bed if you're drunk, or quit yapping!"
"It's none of your business!" the drunkard bellowed. "Don't play the maiden if you're out to play-I won't fall for it! As for money... All I have is money!"
Whipping out a handful of hundred dollar bills, he threw them at Dawn.
However, Frank pulled her out of the way while flicking the drunkard on the head.
Smack!
The drunkard dropped to the floor in pain, half sober just then. "D-Did you just hit me?!"
"Get out of here already!" Frank bellowed.
The drunkard was no one's fool-knowing that Frank was much stronger, he snorted and left.
Frank then turned to Dawn, asking, "Are you alright?"
Dawn shook her head. "I'm alright, and I'm not worried either. There are plenty of people like him."
Frank smiled and nodded. "Good."
As the atmosphere climaxed, a large group of people with torches appeared, standing in two rows and facing southwest.
"Is this a ritual?" Dawn asked in curiosity.noveldrama
"Not really Jojo's mother smiled. "It's just that there's a famous local priestess who always appears to offer blessings whenever a bonfire is lit. That's a ceremony to receive her!"
Dawn nodded. "I'm surprised there's something like this being held here."
As she finished, they saw a figure in the distance, dancing strangely.
She had a mask on, and had a mystical air to her voluptuous figure, like the seductive witches one would see in the movies.
"Welcome, priestess!" The reception with the torches cheered.
The priestess kept dancing but suddenly changed directions and went straight for Frank.
It left everyone puzzled-according to tradition, the priestess should dance straight toward the bonfire, so what was going on here?
On the other hand, Frank was on his feet and standing between the priestess and the crowd.
He could sense that she was not the average person and certainly deserved the grand reception!
As the priestess slowly reached him, she started dancing around her while sniffing audibly, as if smelling something.
Jada snorted in annoyance. "Sexual harassment in the open? How brazen!"
Hana smirked. "You're missing the point, Ms. Turin. I think she sensed something unusual, which is why she' interested in your master!"
"What's that supposed to mean? Are you saying that she knows who my master really is?"
Hana shook her head. "I have no idea!"
Meanwhile, the priestess had suddenly stopped and took two steps back as if threatened and pointed at Frank's trousers pocket.
Frank reached in and took out the ring that Hana gave him, brandishing it.
The priestess nodded and approached him gingerly, taking the ring and studying
it.
Unable to discern anything unusual, she returned it to Frank.
While everyone thought it was over, the priestess picked up a torch and started drawing on the ground with the fire.
From where Frank stood, he could
see that it was a giant dragon's
head could she have guessed
he
was the master of the vein?
What do you think?
