Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) Chapter 2605

Alfredo hissed, “Looks like you really have a death wish. Do you think running your mouth before you die will make your death any easier? Ridiculous!” With a sharp clang, he drew his sword. Firefly hummed excitedly in his grasp, and everyone present could hear its high-pitched keening. A collective gasp swept through the crowd. Even Luna and Valerie froze in horror. The sheer force of Alfredo’s strike was beyond human comprehension, so overwhelming that even the two martial emperors watching from below felt the urge to kneel in fear.

Alfredo’s strength was terrifying, divine, even. Andrew could feel Sheena trembling beside him, no doubt terrified beyond words. However, for some reason, he was not afraid. He knew he could not beat Alfredo and that the sword energy could obliterate him in an instant. Even so, he decided to gamble because he believed Alfredo would not dare to kill him. A thunderous hum filled the air as the crushing beam of energy plummeted toward him. Yet, at the very last moment, it halted —- midair.

It dispersed into a roaring gust, sweeping over Andrew and Sheena so violently that he had to hold onto her to stay upright. Everyone stared in disbelief, unable to understand why Alfredo. had pulled back. Luna’s voice trembled as she called out, “Mr. Topsfield Senior, please stop. If you keep this up, I’ll have no choice but to go against you.” Ina flash, Alfredo appeared beside Luna as if he had teleported He did not even look at her.

“The Military Department is a pillar of Holtrien, but here in the Eastern Regions, my will is higher than the heavens themselves.” Luna bit her lower lip, not daring to say another word. But in her heart, she resolved that if Alfredo truly intended to kill Andrew, she would have to fight to the death alongside him. As she took a step forward, Alfredo’s body blurred into a trail of afterimages. In just seconds, he was already standing right in front of Andrew, towering over him He said with a mocking smile, “Such devotion between you two.

But Andrew, do you know what’s truly real in this world? All emotions are illusions. There’s only one thing that’s real: power. Power that stands above everything else. When you possess supreme power, you can do whatever you want. Your will —- becomes the law of heaven itself.” Andrew laughed. It was a low, hoarse, and utterly scornful sound. “Heaven’s law? You seriously think you’re its equal? Do you think you’re worthy? You’re right about one thing: feelings are illusions. I can admit that. But even illusions have value. She’s my family, and no matter what, I’ll stand with her.

If you try to kill her, or us, then I’ll make damn sure you suffer too.” Alfredo smirked, unfazed. “The rage of an ant means nothing to the boot. The more vicious you act, the more pathetic you look in my eyes.” Andrew’s grin widened. “Then tell me, why didn’t you crush me into dust when you had the chance? Crushing an ant like me should be easy for you.”
