Semua Bab Rising from the Ashes: Bab 1901 - Bab 1906

Andrew pulled his hand back and smiled. "How do you feel?" Eric stood up slowly, his tone icy. "Inferno Strike, right? You've been training with Dad's technique. No wonder you were completely immune to my Phantom Mirage." Andrew shrugged, not even trying to hide it. "You're right. It's Inferno Strike. But just so we're clear, Mr. Thornton gave it to me. I didn't sneak around and steal it." Eric stared at him for a long time, his expression unreadable. "You've already mastered the first stage, Flame Surge, to perfection in such a short time? Andrew, you really are just like Henry said: an absolute freak." Andrew grinned. "Come on, it's not that hard. I've got hands, haven't I?" Eric shook his head. "Inferno Strike is pure, blazing energy; it's aggressive and brutal. Even Dad never dared train in it. He respected it but always kept his distance. And yet here you are, charging headfirst and actually mastering it. I'll admit it. I'm no match for you." It was not easy for Eric t

Seeing how obedient Dirk looked, Andrew pulled out a small vial from his pocket. "This bottle is yours, right?" Dirk gave a sheepish laugh. "Yeah, it's mine.

He could already tell that Andrew was definitely not an ordinary person. "Of course, if you want me to spare your life, that's not impossible either." Andrew gave him a glimmer of hop

Andrew looked at Emily and said gravely, "Hank isn't someone easy to deal with. As a young woman, don't put your safety in the hands of an idiot. Emily, this is the last time I'm going to advise you. Leave Verhampton Valley immediately and return to the Keller family in Blumedale!" Emily looked displeased. "Andrew, mind your own business! I swore I'd get justice for Hannah, and I will definitely do it! I've already tracked down Hank's whereabouts. In a moment, I'm going to bring him to justice! If I don't kill him, I don't deserve to be part of the Keller family!" Andrew shook his head. "Sometimes, even good advice can't save someone who's already walking toward a cliff. Hank might come off as a fool, but even fools come in categories. Someone who came out of Special Ops? If you really think he's just another dumb thug, then you're dead wrong." Theo's bowl crashed to the floor as he glared furiously. "Andrew, that's enough! What gives you the right to lecture Emily like that? Y
