However, even as everyone looked on, Mr. Noon's smile as he whipped out his phone turned to shock.
Eventually, he was staring blankly at Frank, as fear and disbelief gradually crept into him.
Frank even walked up to him, asking pointlessly, "So? Can you reach her?" "Mr. Noon, can you reach my sister-I mean, Baba Yaga?" Yora pressed as well.
It was only when Mr. Noon turned that Yora finally saw the fear and disbelief in his eyes.

As it was a fate worse than death, rarely anyone betrayed Corpsedale and Hundred Bane Sect.
In other words, if one could not be reached on their number, the only explanation was that they had been killed.
Mr. Noon realized that before anyone else, but Yora realized too after seeing his reaction.
"Mr. Noon, is my sister really...' She trailed off, feeling like the world had just crumbled.
After all, the Yimmels had made many enemies in Bralog. If the Yimmels lost Baba Yaga's protection, the enemies would all gang up and massacre the Yimmels.
At that point, Frank did not even need to do a thing while those people wiped out the Yimmels.
And realizing that Baba Yaga had most likely died, Yora blacked out and would have fallen head first onto the floor if a Yimmel executive did not catch her in time.
Thud.
Still, before the rest of the animals realized what had just happened, Mr. Noon who was brimming with confidence earlier-dropped to his knees before Frank!

I'll do anything!" Content belongs to en.kikistoriesThe Yimmels were certainly stunned to see the mysterious, proud man suddenly kneeling to Frank.

Shunk! But at the very next instant, a needle pierced the back of Mr. Noon's head.
It then shot out from between his brows, leaving a gruessplatter of blood along the walls.
The sight left the key members and executives of the Yimmel family petrified.
Even as Mr. Noon's hand remained in the air, he used the last bit of his strength to turn and level Frank a look of confusion.
And with that, he collapsed on the floor, no longer breathing.
Frank chuckled coolly, "You Corpsedale folks are all vile poisoners. Did you think I wouldn't know that? And turning against your employer just to survive... Your QUMS shreally knows no bounds." Content belongs to en.kikistoriesThough it was a justified cause to kill, Mr. Noon was too dead to hear it.
Nonetheless, Yora was left stupefied to see her sole guardian dead.
Even as her family kept her on her feet, she stared at Frank helplessly, her mouth hanging open but speechless.
