Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2776

Nyx shot back, "Aren't you already? In the Dark Clans, your bounty currently ranks at the top of the list. You used to be a legend in Holtrien, and overseas, you're the uncrowned king. I've never understood why you're so obsessed with Holtrien."

She added, "This country, this land, abandoned you, and the people here are cold and heartless. Did you forget why you fled overseas back then? I'm begging you. Don't go back and throw away your life for people and things that aren't worth it."

Reginald stayed silent for a long time before shaking his head. "Nyx, you're wrong. Holtrien never abandoned me, and there are people there I care about more than my own life. For example, my wife and my son."

Nyx's voice turned sorrowful. "Your wife is gone, and that's a fact. And your son? I've never met him, but I still think he's not worth the risk you're taking. If you wanted, your bloodline could keep spreading overseas for generations."

Reginald let out a resigned sigh. "Nyx, you have talent, and you're destined to reach the heights I did one day. But there are things you still don't understand. In this world, some kinds of love overpower everything. My love for my son and my wife is one of them. For that love, I'd give up my life without hesitation. But more importantly, I don't believe I will lose."

Nyx whispered, "To us, you will always be unbeatable and sacred. But I hate your son. I don't think he's worth the danger you're facing."

Reginald chuckled. "He is worth it, because he's the successor that many old veterans from Holtrien and I painstakingly cultivated. He carries the bloodline of The Veiled Faction within him, and in the future, he'll become the king of all the shadows, darkness, and underworld. At that time, even you will have to submit at his feet."

Nyx was shocked, "Your son has the bloodline of the Veiled Faction? H-How is that possible? This kind of thing simply cannot happen."
