Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2947

Andrew locked himself in his room for an entire night. He only emerged the next afternoon.

The Dragonfang headquarters felt heavy with grief. Every member looked silent and dejected. Even Knox, usually the most energetic, sat dejectedly in a corner, staring blankly into space.

Andrew pushed the door open. The others glanced at him, then quickly looked away. No one spoke.

Andrew frowned, noticing Nyx's absence. He climbed to the second floor, where Reginald's personal space was located.

Reginald was already packed and ready. Seeing Andrew, he smiled and said, "Andrew, it's time for us to say goodbye. Take care of Dragonfang for me."

Surprised, Andrew asked, "Dad, what do you mean?"

Reginald gestured for Andrew to sit. "Dragonfang was a foundation I built for you. If you can't lead the organization, I'll disband the team. But it seems everyone is satisfied with you. I'm proud that my son has proven himself."

Andrew cut to the chase. "I don't want Dragonfang. I want to know what you're planning to do."

Reginald lowered his voice. "Here in the Outlands, a full-scale trap has already been set. Vampires, werewolves, Lomuia Grand Cathedral, the Ludendorff family, the three Western nations, and most importantly, Wyrmhelm, including myself, are all moving toward one goal: the Veiled Paradise."

He continued, "Right now, war has already broken out across the Outlands. The Church was the first to clash with the Ludendorff family, and that outcome was inevitable. The Outlands is one of only two places in the world where the Church of Light never spread its influence.

"The first, of course, is Holtrien, where the Church knows it will never gain a foothold. Naturally, the Outlands became the Church's final frontier. Whether there were old grudges or not, a war with the Ludendorff family was inevitable."

He explained, "The fact that God's Left Hand, Mephiston Valafar, is personally intervening speaks volumes. The Lomuia Grand Cathedral has two grand objectives: unifying this chaotic land and accessing the Veiled Paradise."
