Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 1545 Andrew's voice was as quiet as he could possibly make it. He gestured for everyone to retreat while keeping their movements absolutely minimal. This Night Hag's duty was clearly to guard the tomb chamber entrance. Once it moved beyond its patrol range, everyone should theoretically be safe. Unfortunately, at that exact moment, a voice rang out at the worst possible time. "Andy, bet you didn't expect me! Your sworn brother is here! Hey, what are you guys doing?

Playing house or something? You're all standing there like statues!" The voice boomed loudly without any attempt at stealth. Andrew felt like committing murder as he slowly turned his head. Sure enough, he saw Kevin and three of his men walking confidently out of the passage they had come from, looking smug. "Andy, look out! The Night Hag is charging at you!" Tiana screamed. ---- Without hesitation, Andrew spun around and ran for his life, pushing his speed to the absolute limit.

The Night Hag's entire body pressed against the ground as it slithered toward him like a massive snake. Its slender limbs crawled forward across the floor like a ghost, while its mouth gradually split open. In an instant, the creature's jaw stretched all the way back to its ears, revealing two rows of needle-sharp teeth. Kevin backed away in shock, stammering, "W-What the hell is that thing?" Two of Kevin's men stood in front of him and drew their guns to shoot.

However, their timing was too slow by half a beat. The Night Hag's long hair shot out from its head, lifting both men into the air. After two muffled sounds, the creature held two severed heads in its front claws. Kevin's men died instantly in the most gruesome way imaginable. Kevin roared and immediately sprinted in the direction ---- Andrew had fled. Smart move-he had latched onto Andrew's trail like a bloodhound.

That backstabbing bastard might be a traitorous shit, but he knew well that Andrew always knew how to survive. Behind them, the Night Hag's face twisted into a grotesque smile as it gave chase, its movements unnaturally swift. As for Andrew? The moment he saw the Night Hag kill, his suspicions were confirmed-this thing was pure, unfiltered nightmare fuel. The plaza in front of the tomb chamber was enormous, and under the Night Hag's pursuit, everyone scattered in different directions.

Many people shared Kevin's strategy, including Chantelle, who headed straight for Andrew. She only felt safe when following him. The Night Hag crawled on all fours while its hair spread across the ground, giving it terrifying speed and maneuverability. Within moments, it had closed the distance between itself and Andrew and Kevin. "Andrew, you're a walking disaster! Every time | run into you, nothing good happens!" Kevin cursed through gritted teeth.

---- Andrew sneered back, "If nothing good happens around me, then why did you follow me here?" "Just think of a way to get rid of this damn thing!" Kevin shouted furiously. Andrew had no intention of dealing with him further and, after running nearly 300 feet, discovered that the plaza's edges were lined with passages similar to the one they had entered through. Without hesitation, he chose a passage and plunged headfirst into it.

Chantelle followed close behind, with Kevin bringing up the rear. Logan, Tiana, and the others had fled in different directions. Andrew could not worry about the rest of the team right now, though he was grateful that he had managed to draw the Night Hag's attention. He could only pray that there was just one Night Hag in this entire tomb chamber.
