Semua Bab Rising from the Ashes: Bab 2971 - Bab 2980

Only Knox stood there in a daze at first, then turned to look at Andrew with that disappointed look of someone watching their idol fall. "Andrew, h-h-how… Do you have any idea that Nyx is the dream girl of countless guys out here in the Wastelands? She's a goddess to so many of us, and you just… You just went and slept with her like that? It's over. My dreams are shattered. My goddess!"Andrew acted all innocent and asked, "What if I told you it wasn't on purpose? Would you believe me?"Knox roared back, "Hell no!"Then, he grinned, all sleazy-looking as he sidled up closer to Andrew. "But hey, you can at least give me the details, right? Is Nyx's ass as good as it looks? How did it feel? Damn, man, you're seriously something else, too insane, too badass. "You've only been in Dragonfang for how long, and you already landed Nyx? Andrew, from now on, you're my hero! Seriously, I never imagined you'd be this incredible. I'm ready to submit to you right now…"The way he danced arou

Prescott said coldly, "Uncle Garal, do you think I don't know how formidable Nyx is? If I dare let them in, it means I have complete confidence in my ability to handle them. Every single member of Dragonfang is a top-tier fighter. If we use them properly, they'll be a tremendous asset in defending Abyss City."The Cathedral's main army will be attacking soon. When that happens, we can have Dragonfang's people lead the charge for us. If nothing else, they should at least wear down half of the Cathedral's forces."Garal still shook his head. "Prescott, you're thinking too simply. Dragonfang's people aren't idiots. Why would they work for you?"Prescott let out a cold laugh. He drained his wine in one gulp, and his eyes flashed with contempt."Why? Because of my supreme power, of course. No matter how strong Dragonfang's people are, they can't be stronger than you and me combined, right? Besides, we have plenty of our own people in Abyss City. With just a few of them, how much trouble

Garal shook his head. "Prescott, with your status, you can have any woman you want. Why ruin your dignity over something so trivial?"Prescott sneered. "Uncle, you're wrong. This isn't trivial at all. A woman I set my eyes on is someone I'll find a way to claim. Besides, do you really think a woman like Nyx is common? Across the Outlands, beautiful women are everywhere, but beautiful martial gods who are also assassins are rare. If I can win Nyx over and make her serve the family, Father will surely think of me differently."Garal laughed. "If you truly managed to pull Nyx into the Ludendorff family. Raiden would probably name you the top successor on the spot."Prescott burst into laughter, his face full of ambition and anticipation. "It's happening very soon… It's practically a done deal. Uncle, arrange a banquet. Later, I want to host Nyx properly."Garal nodded and smiled. "I'll also take the opportunity to probe Dragonfang's people a bit more."…From within Abyss City, look

Nyx scoffed. "Everyone knows the truth about how Rosemary died. Andrew could never do something like that, and I believe in him."Prescott shook his head. "Facts speak louder than words. You may not believe it, but the Cathedral does. They'll never let him go. With Mephiston's terrifying power and Kass' fierce aggression, Dragonfang won't hold out for long."Nyx stopped talking, as if she had been intimidated.Prescott felt secretly thrilled because this was exactly the effect he wanted.Garal added fuel to the fire. "Dragonfang once had such a fearsome reputation. Who would've thought you'd fall to this level? It's really sad. Abyss City can provide temporary shelter, but we can't keep you safe forever. Anyway, what are your plans going forward?"Franz let out a sigh. "Honestly, we're at the end of our rope. The Wastelands are Dragonfang's natural habitat. If we leave, Dragonfang's reason for existing would cease to exist."Garal nodded enthusiastically and smiled. "Exactly! But

Andrew chuckled. At times like this, as long as he was shameless enough, he was invincible.He said, "Nyx, it's true that we haven't known each other long. The first time we met was in Holtrien. I still remember how arrogant you were back then, and how incredibly powerful you were too. Seeing me in such a pathetic state, not only did you not sympathize with me, you actually lectured me."Nyx let out a soft hum, seeming somewhat proud. "It's good to know you're self-aware! By the way, you really were pretty weak back then. Mr. Lloyd Senior and I went back home to rescue you. On his end, he was surrounded by so many powerful fighters from Holtrien. I originally wanted to help him, but he actually ordered me to go save you instead and not worry about him."She continued, "From that moment on, I really found you annoying. I often couldn't understand why you mattered so much. I just wanted Mr. Lloyd Senior to be safe. As for you, I didn't want to bother with you at all back then."Andre
