Frank obviously read their thoughts. "Don't worry-since I have the power to take them down instantly, I'd have the power to save them too." "What is it they say? Know thyself. And I am not one who boasts!" Since Frank was putting it that way, they all nodded.
Before they parted, however, the big man warned, "You have to watch out, kid. Word is that Mount Statera can get restless in the night. I don't know how much truth is in such hearsay, but it's better to be safe than sorry as they say.

"Don't worry-I'm no saint. If they are that suicidal, I'm not going to screw myself over for their sake!" He then split up from the rangers and flew up the mountain.
Soon arriving at his destination, he scanned his surroundings and quickly noticed his objective hiding behind a man-sized boulder. He pulled the herb out of the soil and looked down the mountain.
It was not as if he cared about the suicidal college students-he simply noticed a strange presence approaching them.
Meanwhile, the college students were sitting around a circle, remembering what just happened.
Their minds were clear, and they believed that Frank could not be that strong.
And yet, their eyes clearly told them that everything they saw was real! One of them sighed. "He's definitely a big shot. And since he call the way to talk to us, then the temperature drop might really be as dangerous as they claim. Why don't we just go?" He was concerned for their safety, but his suggestion was quickly shot down. "Leave if you want to. To think that a man like you can be this cowardly... I would've taken you for a eunuch if I didn't know better." The boy who suggested leaving was at once furious and put a hand on his chest as he vowed, "I'll stay even after you all leave, and for no other reason than the fact that I'm a man, and I fear nothing!" That was when a howl rang behind them, followed by more! The college students all turned right then and found themselves staring at numerous pairs of dark green eyes.

"T-That's impossible! How could there be canines of that size in existence?" "Don't just stand there! Run!" someone yelled, and everyone else promptly ran across every direction.
The wolves were not worried about giving chase. Two legs were never going to win against four, and they caught up soon enough.
They were not going for the kill immediately either and herded the college students with their menacing growls, after which they were encircled.
The boy from earlier, who was more cowardly, collapsed into tears. "I said we should leave, but none of you listened! See now?! Wolves! We're so screwed!" "I-I don't wanna die... Is there anyone who's going to help us?!" "Stop crying! Who could've known that It's would show up here? It's obvious that no one expected this. If anything, it must be that pretty boy who set us up!" "Who set you up?" ét et That was when Frank descended upon them, slowly landing like a deity. "You can say anything you want about me, as long as it's to my face. Don't you think that it's e tasteless to badmouth another person behind their back?" S The boy he pushed just earlier was immediately snapping at him, "Quit running your mouth! Kill those wolves if you can, and we might just ive you!" "Trying to goadinto doing your bidding, huh?" However, Frank easily saw through the college students' ploy. "I'm sorry, but I always do what I want. The opinions of others have never tieddown!"
