Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3110 Tobiah spoke in a low voice. "Knox, you have no right to speak. Step down." However, Knox stood in the center of the hall. He clenched his teeth stubbornly and did not move. An elder of the Highland Tribe scolded him harshly. "You insolent brat. The Highland Tribe has taken root here for hundreds of years. Have we not migrated and fled enough times already? We were driven here from the Wastelands in the first place. Now you want us to go back? Knox, | think you are simply foolish." Knox shot back without hesitation. "Sir, | think you are wrong.

It is precisely because our tribe has never had a stable home and has always been driven out and slaughtered by others. We're always hiding, and that's why now we must finally stand upright. Hiding is not a real solution. Facing it is." The elder sneered. "That's easy for you to say. So tell me, how do we face them?" Knox replied, "By facing death and confronting them with an attitude of sacrificing everything, by standing tall in this world even if it means being shattered to pieces!" ---- The elder fell silent.

He wanted to argue, but suddenly did not know what to say, Another elder shook his head. "No, absolutely not! Our tribe has taken root here. If we leave now, then hundreds of years of foundation will be destroyed!" Knox shouted, "If it's destroyed, so be it. As long as our warriors remain and the Highland Tribe spirit endures, then anywhere can be our homeland, and we can build a beautiful home again!" Othniel had been silent this whole time. Now he raised his head and glanced at Knox. "Knox, these ideas came from Mr. Lloyd, right?" Knox nodded, then shook his head. "Mr.

Fernsby, he does think this way, but this is also what | believe." Othniel shook his head. "Mr. Lloyd has already proven his friendship and affection toward our tribe. But his original purpose in coming was for our warriors. Now, having our entire tribe follow him? Knox, it's not that I'm being petty. It's that as an elder, I'm worried, afraid, and uncertain!" Knox looked bitter. He wanted to say something bold to reassure everyone, but he had no strength or credibility to back it up. After all, he had only awakened the Arcturus bloodline with Andrew's help.

---- His reputation within the Highland Tribe had barely begun, and his authority was almost nonexistent. Soft footsteps echoed into the hall. Tobiah and the others quickly greeted them. "Mr. Lloyd, Ms. Kerrigan." Andrew and Nyx entered, with Juno following behind them. "Chief, Mr. Fernsby, and all the elders," Andrew greeted them before slowly looking around. He then said in a deep voice, "It is true that when | first came here, I was after the fearless Highland warriors. | won't deny that | had my own selfish motives." Such an open admission made the Highland elders nod quietly.

Othniel showed a hint of shame; as compared to Andrew's honesty, he felt his earlier doubts had been unbecoming. Andrew continued. "But after seeing the simplicity, hospitality, loyalty, and unyielding courage of the Highland warriors. Elders, my heart changed, completely and instantly. Your warriors are good men who love their homeland and cherish their families."
