All Chapters of Rising from the Ashes: Chapter 2531 - Chapter 2540

Conrad was silent for a moment before saying coldly, "You're talking about Andrew, aren't you? Sorry, Luna, but I can't agree to that. He has to die. If I let him live, the scar he left in my heart will keep burning and tearing at me forever." Luna quickly protested, "That was years ago, Conrad. Why can't you just let it go?" Conrad clenched his jaw. "Not until he tells the truth about the Iron Cavalry incident. As a soldier, Andrew's survival alone is a disgrace to himself, to the military, and to me." Luna's temper flared, and her tone turned sharp. "But you're wrong about what happened to the Iron Cavalry. Andrew didn't abandon them; he fought his way back alone." Conrad shook his head. "That's what Mr. Turman told me, too, but I don't buy it. I confronted Andrew myself and gave him the chance to explain, but he avoided it, refusing to say a word." He continued, "Besides, Luna, you might not know this, but the Cunningham family has its own internal records. I won't go into

Victoria blushed, and she shot Tiana a glare. "Tiana, if you've got nothing useful to say, then shut your mouth. No one here thinks you're a mute, alright?" Andrew rubbed his nose awkwardly and could only give a dry laugh. He did not dare interrupt when the two bickered. After all, it was not his place as the younger one, especially when both women were far from being 'proper elders'. "Andrew, I'm heading east tomorrow," Sheena said, walking up and patting his shoulder. Andrew brushed off her hand since her strength was no joke, and it actually hurt. He analyzed, "Sheena, you're a second-tier martial emperor, and Swordhaven Keep's master, Alfredo, ranks third on the Titan List. He's already at the final stage of the martial emperor level. In other words, he's just one step away from becoming a martial god, the kind that never loses. I'll say this one last time: maybe you should reconsider." He added, "Sure, we're not afraid of death, but there's no need to deliberately prov

The Webster family was not part of the five great clans, but their standing in Chetvine was unique. That was mostly of their matriarch, Helda Cooke's eldest son, Melvin Webster. He was the current head of the family and one of Holtrien's key figures. Even compared to Guillermo, he was not far behind, which contributed to the remarkable influence of the Webster family. Overall, the Websters were a well-disciplined and respectable family. Their second and third generations were not exceptionally gifted or as extraordinary as people like Isabelle or Valerie, but they were steady and consistent. They did not have any prodigies, yet they also did not produce any fools or troublemakers. In fact, the family was filled with capable, level-headed people who were intelligent, diligent, and dependable. That kind of balance created a household known for integrity and composure, with a strong sense of justice and a grounded, methodical style. Most powers in Chetvine knew that out of everyone

"But what is it, Mr. Orben? Please speak freely," Melvin said. Theon pretended to hesitate. Then, he explained, "It's just that Sovereign's Apothecary is now under the authority of Mr. Titus Sterling from the Divine Alchemists. While I'm the chief alchemist and hold considerable influence, Mr. Sterling's opinion carries greater weight. Whatever happens, I'll still need his approval first." Melvin frowned. "Titus Sterling? I've heard of him. He's the one managing Sovereign's Apothecary on behalf of the Divine Alchemists, right? I've also heard he's quite the stubborn man, unyielding once he's made a decision." Theon nodded. "Exactly. If the Webster family decides not to renew the contract with Sovereign's Apothecary, then Ms. Webster might face some… complications in joining us. That's just the reality." Melvin's brows furrowed slightly, while Helda spoke calmly, "Melvin, maybe we should just continue working with Sovereign's Apothecary this year for Maddie's sake." Melvin sho

Melvin finally lost his patience and snapped, "Madeline, are you out of your mind again? Do you even realize how childish you sound at your age? Apologize to Mr. Orben, right now!" Madeline's tone stayed icy. "Sorry, but that's not happening." Melvin's anger flared even hotter at being defied in front of everyone. "And what if I insist? If you refuse, then get out of the Webster family!" What was supposed to be a business discussion had now turned into a heated family argument right in front of their guests. Madeline's eyes reddened as she stared at her brother stubbornly, refusing to back down. Helda sighed softly but chose to stay silent. Melvin pointed at her furiously. "Do you even know how much shame you've brought to this family? You're old enough to know better, yet you still live at home, unmarried. People think the Websters are so poor we can't even afford a proper wedding!" He continued, "But I never held that against you. You've always been difficult and impuls
