Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3174 Andrew said calmly, "Mr. Hearst, don't worry. | know my limits. I'll definitely kill people, but I'm not someone who slaughters the innocent." Franz let out a breath and smiled. "I trust you. A great era of conflict is about to arrive. This time, the trial facing Holtrien won't be small." Andrew said, "What's there to fear? There are still many hidden old monsters in Holtrien. Let them come out and deal with the Vampire Queen's forces." Franz shook his head. "! doubt it. The Vampire Queen has slept for a thousand years.

Those old fossils back home have either died or been replaced by new generations. The current ones only think of their own interests, and they won't be willing to lift a finger for anything else." Andrew shrugged. "Then that's a matter for Philip and the military to worry about. Such a large country must have someone who will step forward." Franz chuckled. "How about you?" Andrew's expression turned somewhat grim. "I'm not the sovereign ruler of Holtrien. Why should | step forward?

---- Guillermo, Philip, the Divine Dragon Order, plus the eight ancient sects and the three royal families of Holtrien... They've been enjoying the fruits of others' labor all this time. When the time comes, they're the ones who should step up." Franz sighed. "They are the ones who must bear the responsibility. Let it be. We should head home first; the helicopters are ready. My plan is for us to fly directly to Chetvine. Andrew waved a hand. "No need. We'll land at the Azure Gate. | want to pay a visit to the Swordhaven Keep." Franz's face twitched slightly, but he eventually agreed.

"Alright." Andrew was leaving, but Throne City still needed someone to guard it. Although the Wastelands could no longer stir up much trouble for now, he still had to stay cautious of the Dark Clans. Therefore, among the Dragonfang organization, only Nyx and Franz followed Andrew back home. The others, Knox, Petra, and Juno, stayed behind in Throne City. Besides, they were not people of Holtrien, and they had no obligation to serve it. Unless Andrew ordered them, the Outlands was their true home.

Andrew was not a selfish person, so he would never force the rest of Dragonfang to return home and serve him. Moreover, Throne City had essentially become his personal stronghold. No ---- matter what, he could not afford to neglect his own base. Hence, leaving powerful fighters behind to guard it was. absolutely necessary. With the warriors of the Highland Tribe and top-tier fighters like Othniel, Throne City was secure without worry. Two helicopters descended with a thunderous roar. Andrew boarded with Nyx, Luna, and Valerie.

The four of them in one aircraft, while Franz took Conrad and Kyrie, along with two Holtrien military soldiers who had arrived, in the other helicopter. The helicopters lifted off and swiftly swept across the land below. Andrew withdrew his gaze, feeling quite emotional. Strictly speaking, the time he had spent in the Outlands was not long at all. Altogether, it was just over a year, not even two. Yet, the experiences he had gone through were countless, and the battles, big and small, were too numerous to count. 1 His growth in power was astounding, almost unbelievable.

To outsiders, it seemed like he had shot up like a rocket, soaring into the sky, an enviable rise. However, he himself felt something very different. First of all, he had faced life-and-death crises more than once. A single misstep, and he would never have made it home. Second, ---- he had built the most substantial foundation of his life. A man without a cause would be incomplete. Take Andrew himself: back in Holtrien, he had been constrained at every turn, with various forces swarming to attack him.

And this was while he bore the prestigious title of the Lloyd family's Dragon Prince, with the backing of the Lloyd royal family and a larger-than-life father overseas. Even with all those titles, Andrew had still felt powerless at times. But now, he did not feel that way anymore. Because all external power ultimately did not belong to him. His current strength and the empire behind him were truly his own and could be used by him. To describe it with a slightly exaggerated phrase, the current Andrew dared to turn against any force in the world and draw his sword without hesitation.

That was what gave him his confidence.
