Chapter 1576

Author: Only For You
Everyone had stopped fighting altogether. Or rather, Andrew's side had temporarily set aside any thoughts of attacking.

On the other side, only Stanley was left. He said, "Andrew, I've never had any real grudge with you or anyone here! Remember back at the Wright estate, Mr. Lloyd, when you scammed me out of a billion dollars? I didn't even bat an eye at that loss!

"Now I'm standing at death's door. I don't want to kill anymore—I just want to live. So, I'm hoping we can settle this without bloodshed!"

He raised both hands in surrender, his face full of desperate sincerity as he pleaded for peace.

Chantelle frowned. "Mr. O'Higgins, is everything you said about the old royal court really true? We know that the Demon Queen had only one son—Maximus, the last emperor."

Stanley smiled. "Ms. Garcia, you're an educated woman. Real or not, I think someone like you can judge for herself. After all, we're standing in the Underworld Kingdom of the Dead—this place tells its own story.

    In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged over a hundred blows, each strike booming like muffled thunder inside the tomb. "You know that much about my background? Tell me—who the hell are you?" Stanley roared, stunned. Fury flared in his chest, but beneath it was something far more dangerous—fear. He could not see through Andrew at all. Worse, he could feel this young man's power seemed somehow suppressed or restrained. If he were to unleash his full strength without any limitations, Stanley feared that even with his 100 years of training—hell, even with another 100 years—he would face nothing but the miserable fate of being crushed to death. That horrifying realization crept deeper with every strike. Andrew was simply unfathomable, making even an old monster like himself feel completely exposed and vulnerable as if he had been stripped naked. Andrew's movements flowed like a celestial dragon, swift and fluid as he soared forward. Energy surged between his palms, spi

    Chantelle snapped, "This foreign bastard has to die! Only then will this nightmare end." Andrew's eyes went ice-cold as he stared at Stanley. "From the beginning, I never believed a word that came out of your mouth—not a single one. I had no proof, but my gut told me you couldn't be trusted. "A damned man who refuses to die, coming back after 100 years to rob his friend's grave while pretending to grieve, wearing that fake look of mercy. Stanley, I was right—you're no different than the colonizers who came before you! "A hypocrite, despicable to the core. At your roots, you're no better than a savage beast—only here to plunder, never to understand or respect. But there's one difference now—back in the days of the Fallen Crimson Dynasty, our ancestors were fooled and slaughtered by men like you. "Today? I, and the proud people of Etharia, are no longer your helpless lambs!" With those words, Andrew let out a guttural roar and suddenly kicked off from where he stood, shooting

    The puppet's wooden mouth split even wider, cracking at the edges. Thick, black-red blood began to gush out from the widening seam, and it poured in streams that made the sight almost unbearable. Tiana and Chantelle instinctively drew closer to each other, a bone-deep chill gripping them. A shared, unspoken fear filled the air—something terrible was about to descend. The puppet chuckled. "Stanley, I've waited for you here… in this cursed Underworld Kingdom of the Dead… for 100 years. From the moment they buried me, I knew you'd never let go. Even after all this time, I knew you'd still crave the Elixir of Immortality." Stanley shouted, his voice wild with denial. "No! No, you're not real! You can't be real! I saw you die—I remember everything! I was there when the Demon Queen forced the arsenic poison down your throat! "First, you vomited blood, even spitting up your internal organs! Then, you went into convulsions while the light in your eyes gradually dimmed and was replaced

    Stanley's brow furrowed. "Andrew, what's that supposed to mean? Are you saying I made all this up?" Andrew turned his eyes toward the other end of the crypt, where the royal throne stood. "Why don't we let your Little Emperor friend explain it himself—and see if you're the one telling stories?" The puppet seated on the throne had somehow stood up. Its decapitated wooden head, which had been blasted off during the earlier gunfire, was now fully reattached. A raspy, grinding voice scraped through the air, like rusted metal scraping against steel."Stanley, we meet again." The puppet, carved entirely from wood, had no facial muscles. Yet somehow, at that moment, Andrew could swear its face came alive. It stared at Stanley with a gaze so filled with hatred and bitterness that it could curdle blood. Stanley froze, his entire expression locking in place. He stammered, "H-How is this possible? No! It's impossible! You've been dead for 100 years! You can't be alive—you can't!" Hi

    Andrew said, "Anyone who didn't know better would think you came here to pay your respects and visit his spirit. But in reality, after a hundred years, the little emperor's childhood friend has become nothing more than a greedy coward who fears death above all else." His voice dripped with contempt as he continued his verbal assault. "You want to steal your childhood friend's burial treasures, you want his precious belongings, and you want to wreck his tomb. Stanley, you foreigners are just like your so-called ancestors who invaded Holtrien back then—hypocritical, putting on false airs, and shamelessly greedy!" Andrew's words caused the smile on Stanley's face to fade bit by bit until his expression turned dark and menacing. He hissed, "I just don't want to die—I want to extend my life! Is it wrong for a person to fear death and desire immortality?" Andrew scoffed coldly in response. "Everyone in the world clings to life and fears death, and I'm no exception! But I would never
