Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 2918 Andrew laughed heartily. For once, he looked a bit embarrassed. "Actually, he really didn't need to go to all this trouble." Franz waved his hand. "Andrew, Reginald has been drifting overseas all these years. There's much | won't tell you, as I'm afraid he'll blame me. But he has gotten old. You understand what | mean... Not that he's aged in years, but he has been through too much and has weathered too many storms." He added, "Right now, you're the only family he has left in this world.

You might laugh at me, but I've never seen Reginald as happy as he is today, not in all these recent years." At these words, Andrew fell silent. The other Dragonfang members all turned to look at him, their eyes showing different expressions. Some were complicated, some cold, and some openly hostile. Franz said with a bitter smile, "They've all been loyal, following Reginald for years, including Nyx. Andrew, | hope you understand that while their attitude toward you isn't great, these people all have real skills; they're all fighters who've faced life and death alongside Reginald.

You've just arrived, not understanding many situations." ---- The scarred woman said coldly, "Franz, you don't need to explain so much to him. He's Mr. Lloyd Senior's son, so we should show him respect. But strength is the only criterion that earns our respect. Everything else? Sorry, we don't care. We are people who live with death at our heels." She continued, "Mr. Lloyd Senior is strong, so we're willing to die for him. But this kid still needs time to prove himself. Besides, strength is just one aspect of what makes someone great. Seeing him value this kid so much just pisses us off.

"He's already tired enough; the responsibility on his shoulders is about to crush him. | really don't understand why he puts so much thought into this brat. He's not a child anymore, he's a man. As a man, he should rely on himself." Franz frowned. "Juno, say less. You don't know Andrew enough just yet. His talent and ability are beyond question." The bald giant on the sofa suddenly stood up, grinning wickedly. "Is that so? Why don't you let me spar with him?" Franz shook his head. "Now's not the time." The big bald guy scoffed.

"I can beat the crap out of him anytime." Franz gave Andrew a bitter smile. "Andrew, don't take it to heart. This big guy is Petra Stokes, a descendant of the Western giant ---- bloodline. Only Reginald can take on his warhammer, the Stormbreaker." Andrew remained calm and said nothing. While none of Reginald's people were pushovers, Petra did not feel like he was. impossible to deal with. Meanwhile, Juno Mooney and the strange figure hanging from the rafters, who had never shown his face, felt far more dangerous to Andrew. But even they did not give him as much pressure as Nyx did.

Although Andrew was truly annoyed with Nyx, he acknowledged her strength. After all, anyone who walked the assassin's path was no coward With a creak, the small building's wooden door was pushed open. A tall man in black wearing a hood walked in. Andrew looked over and saw him carrying wine and large bags of snacks in his hands. He pulled down his hood, revealing a handsome, mature face with firm and distinct features. Andrew remembered this face crystal clear. It had lost its former carefree charm and gained traces of hardship and gray in the beard.

Andrew suddenly felt a sting in his chest and stepped forward with his arms open. "Dad!" ---- That single word carried all the years of longing between them. Reginald handed the food and drinks to Franz and opened his arms as well. "Andy!" As they embraced, he froze for a moment. "You are taller than me now. And these arms and legs are thicker than mine. As expected of my son!" The father and son's laughter echoed through the small building once more. The other Dragonfang members stared blankly at this scene.

The guy hanging from the rafters suddenly dropped to the ground, sporting a wild mess of hair on his head. He wanted to crack a joke but quickly stopped himself, grimacing awkwardly. Franz glanced at everyone and said with a shake of his head and a sigh, "They're both heroes of Holtrien. Your understanding of Andrew is about to change very soon. Like father, like son; you'll all see it soon enough."
