Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) Chapter 2604

Ignoring Sheena’s struggles, Andrew said coldly, “No matter what, I won’t leave you behind.” As he spoke, he flashed forward and launched a relentless assault on one of the sword retainers. Onyx’s robes billowed as his sword moved in a dense, defensive pattern. Under Andrew’s fierce attack, blood flew freely, and his arm sustained several deep wounds where bone was visible. He bore a massive crimson handprint on his chest and felt his throat go dry. “To break through my sword net in your condition…

even in death, you can be proud of that,” he gritted out, a mix of anger and shaken respect in his voice. He raised his sword and poured all his strength into a decisive strike against Andrew. Andrew’s figure blurred into afterimages as he evaded, while explosions tore through the ground behind him. Onyx’s blade, amplified by his energy, manifested a phantom greatsword over five meters long that shattered everything in its path. —- Andrew roared, his face contorted with ferocity. He met the assault head-on with a continuous barrage of Inferno Strikes.

The energy core within him churned like boiling water as he expended his energy recklessly. “You’re both pathetic!” Alfredo’s voice cut through the chaos like ice. “I’ll handle this myself. Move!” Onyx and Ivory broke out ina cold sweat. One of them was busy suppressing Luna and Valerie, and though he had the upper hand, he could not disengage. Onyx, despite his lethal skill, found Andrew to be a stubborn opponent he could not quickly overpower. This delay was unacceptable to Alfredo. In Swordhaven Keep, no one he wanted dead should still be standing after five minutes.

With a palm strike that forced Onyx back, Andrew himself staggered three steps, his face twisted in pain. A thunderous roar erupted from his chest. “Alfredo, you heartless old bastard! You don’t even care about your own sons’ lives! But what about the Godslayer? Don’t you want that?” The name ‘Godslayer’ made Alfredo freeze, his hand stopping just as he was about to draw his sword. —- “The Godslayer? Andrew, how do you know that name? Are you telling me the divine sword of Swordhaven Keep is in your possession?” By the end, Alfredo’s voice trembled with barely contained rage and shock.

The reaction was not his alone; the other powerful experts who had come to Swordhaven Keep perked up, their eyes turning greedy as they stared at Andrew. Andrew flicked the blood from his arm, ignoring everyone else, and asked Sheena softly, “Sheena, how are you holding up?” Sheena’s face was pale with pain, but she managed a strained smile. “I’ll be fine. I can last long enough to watch you beat this old bastard to death.” Andrew laughed. “Don’t worry. We’ll have plenty of chances to settle this score later.” He then turned his gaze back to Alfredo, a taunting smile on his lips.

“Whether the Godslayer is with me or not isn’t the point. What I know is that you want it. You want that divine sword to help you dominate the entire martial world, don’t you?” Alfredo roared, “I’ll give you one chance! Tell me where it is!” Andrew deliberately let the silence hang, drawing out the moment before replying with venomous intensity. “Where is it? I could tell you. But who the hell do you think you are? You want —- the divine sword? Fine. Get down on your knees right now and beg me… Maybe then I’ll consider it.” Gasps filled the entire hall.

Every single person stared at Andrew in disbelief, as if he had lost his mind. Even Luna and Valerie looked at him like he was insane. How could he dare to say something like that? Alfredo froze in place, staring at Andrew as if truly seeing him for the first time. The two locked eyes, neither backing down. At that moment, Andrew was not afraid of anything anymore. Things could not possibly get worse, could they? The fight had already gone beyond reason. Since Alfredo was determined to kill them both, Andrew saw no reason to show any respect.

To hell with Swordhaven Keep To hell with being ranked third on the Titan List.
