FreeNovelAs the retainers and bodyguards loyal to Yed encircled Ned and Frank menacingly, Ned snapped at Yed, "What is the meaning of this?!" "What, you ask? Haha!" Yed laughed loudly and coldly. "I won't hide it from you now, dear brother—yes, | was the one who poisoned our father! It's his fault for choosing you as his successor! He's asking for it! Also, it's not just me. Paula is in this too! She's the one who personally did it!" "What..." Ned blurted, looking around as Yed's men closed in on him in shock and rage. "Have you forgotten Uncle Lothar?! If he finds out about this—" "Oh, don't worry. That fool would never know." Yed sneered savagely. "Still, he did mess up my plans a little, wasting so much of my time. | would've turned on him right away if he didn't bring those retainers with him!" "But that's fine—I made a deal with Sif Lionheart, and she'll soon be here with the Lionhearts' best men. Once they killed Lothar, I'll succeed Father as the next head of the Janko family! I did not want to do this. You all madedo this!" Ned was left dumbstruck by the extent of Yed's treachery.

"Might make right—since father refused to appointas his successor, | just have to take it! He should have known this would happen when he chose you instead!" "Yed. You traitor!" Ned yelled furiously.
"Hah! You're the only traitor—you can rot in a grave like the queer you really are!" Yed laughed and turned toward his men. "Go! Kill them both!" At his orders, the thirtyish bodyguards and three Birthright rank Janko retainers charged toward Ned and Frank.
"I'm so sorry for dragging you into this, Mr. Lawrence," Ned apologized, even as he unleashed a burst of pure vigor that covered himself. "Don't worry. I'll clear a path so you can run!" "So this is the Jankos' technique?" Frank paused when he saw the yellow projection in the shape of a tortoise around Ned but soon chuckled.
"Actually, Mr. Janko, | won't let you die yet. I'm still counting on your family's assistance soon. And don't worry, they can't do anything to you as long as I'm here!" "Still talking tough?! Go!" Yed barked from a distance.

"Hillstepper!" he bellowed as he launched a kick at Frank's face, the air cracking as he tore toward him.
"Watch out!" Ned cried out on top of his lungs.
"Paltry tricks... Hah!" Frank bellowed as he suddenly lifted the limousine nearby and flung it at the oncoming retainer!
