Chapter 1183

Author: Only For You
Elon's face turned red from the scolding, and he muttered bitterly, "I mean, I might not be great, but I'm still better than Andrew, right? Are you really saying that in your eyes, your own son is worth less than that guy?"

Richard let out a cold snort. "You really care about comparing yourself to him? Fine then—do you want the truth or a lie?"

Elon shrank back at his father's sarcastic smile and mumbled, "The lie… I guess."

Richard scoffed, "Alright. If it's lies you want, then sure—you're way more promising than Andrew. That guy doesn't even deserve to be compared to you."

Elon's face twitched. He wanted to laugh, but the words tasted bitter in his mouth.

The lie was that he was better than Andrew. But the truth? The truth was that compared to Andrew, he was absolutely nothing.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized—either way, he came up short. So what was the point in choosing?

He silently cursed, 'Damn it!'

Richard folded his hands behind his back, his

    Mephiston, who had been resting with his eyes closed, finally opened them. Those were eyes like vast oceans, deep and fathomless."Kass, calm down and take it easy. Warwick City is just a border town with little strategic significance or value. Use your army to deal with Storm City and Abyss City instead."Kass roared, "But Your Eminence, you heard it yourself. Someone from the Ludendorff family dared to directly insult our Lord. This is blatant blasphemy, and they must be burned alive."Mephiston smiled faintly. "Devils are devils precisely because they dare say and do anything. But why would our Lord even notice these pitiful creatures? Do what you're supposed to do and don't worry about the rest. Our target is Throne City, the Ludendorff family's headquarters."Kass pressed his chest and bowed his head. "Yes, Your Eminence!"Mephiston added, "As for Storm City, you will go there personally. Handle everything according to the Pope's instructions. The Church accepts surrender and

    The Lomuia Grand Cathedral had descended upon the Outlands with 30 thousand Vindicators. The scale was overwhelming, signaling the launch of an unprecedented war.At this moment, inside the Church army encampment, reports flowed in nonstop, all of them battlefield updates."My lord, Warwick City has been taken by our forces.""Your Grace, our troops have secured the three major coastal strongholds.""Your Eminence Mephiston, at Storm City, our troops are already at the gates. Now we only await your command to spread our Lord's majesty!"…God's Left Hand, Mephiston, whose rank in the Lomuia Grand Cathedral was second only to the Pope, was tall but not imposing. Instead, he appeared somewhat frail, and his entire being seemed aged and weary.His ears were filled with battle reports, but Mephiston did not even lift his eyes, keeping them closed as he rested in his chair.Nearby were the busy legion commanders and Kass in his red robes.Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Kass sa

    A thunderous crash rang out as Andrew smashed Jeffrey's greatsword midair with a single punch, snapping it clean in half. Then, he slapped Jeffrey, sending him flying.Blood sprayed everywhere as Jeffrey's head slammed hard into the city gate, his front teeth shattering as he screamed in agony.Ignoring his wails, Andrew grabbed him by the hair and spoke in a flat, cold tone."Get lost. Warwick City, and the entire wasteland, belongs to the great Ludendorff family. The Church of Light is nothing here. Go back and tell your Lord to wash his ass and wait for Mr. Ludendorff to shove it in."Jeffrey was thrown to the ground, clutching his bloodied face as he roared furiously. "You lunatic! You'll pay with your life for your arrogance! How dare you insult the Church of Light! Your very soul will be burned to ashes in a holy fire!" Andrew replied with contempt. "What Church of Light? In the eyes of Mr. Marshall Ludendorff, you're nothing. From this moment on, Warwick City is under his

    Andrew wasted no time, ordering everyone to gather their equipment and supplies before turning back. After that, they marched straight back to Warwick City.Nyx, as the top assassin, maintained watch from the high ground nearby. She observed everything as Andrew effortlessly recruited Warwick City's forces, her eyes gleaming with approval.She thought he was truly well-rounded. Under his command, the Dragonfang members all had direction and motivation. Perhaps, just as Reginald had said, Andrew was truly worth everyone's trust.On Warwick City's walls, the Church warriors had completed their occupation.Jeffrey Lombardi, the squad captain, wore a dissatisfied expression as he grumbled, "I really don't understand why the Archbishop assigned me to attack this godforsaken dump. As the most sacred and valiant believers of the Church, my battlefield should be in places like Storm City or Abyss City at a minimum."His lieutenant, Craig Royle, replied, "I heard the fighting there is much

    Stetson gave a kill order on the spot.A scar-faced woman with a cold, vicious look rushed out from the side, and the curved blade in her hand moved like the Grim Reaper's scythe. Blood sprayed everywhere, and Stetson's men fell one after another, dead beyond any doubt.Only then did real panic creep into Stetson's chest.These people were far too strong. There was no way they were ordinary bandits or highway robbers.He started to wonder if they were from the Church. Then again, the way they were dressed did not match at all.Just as Stetson wavered, debating whether he should cut his losses and run, a calm voice suddenly sounded right beside his ear."Give up resisting, drop all your supplies, and I will spare your life. I will only say this once. You have three seconds to decide."Stetson jolted in shock, and even the fat at the back of his neck started trembling."Who's there?"He was just a merchant by trade with pathetic combat skills. There was no way he could fight his

    A massive burst of holy light suddenly exploded across the walls of Warwick City. Warriors clad entirely in white, with white cloaks, white helmets, white swords, white boots, scaled the city walls from three directions.Soon, screams echoed everywhere. The garrison forces defending Warwick City, loyal to the Ludendorff family, collided head-on with the Church's Vindicators.However, it was obvious that the Church's Vindicators were far fiercer and more formidable. Warwick City was only a third-rate stronghold in the wastelands. It had been established just within the past decade. Previously, this place was no more than a large trading post.Therefore, the wall's height and defenses were mediocre at best. The city mayor, Stetson Sawyer, was a wealthy merchant who had sworn allegiance to the Ludendorff family.Seeing the situation turning dire, he loaded up over a dozen vehicles with the jewels and money he had hoarded over the years and slipped out through Warwick City's back gate.
