Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2948

Andrew said, "But there is no need for us to cooperate with the other factions at all. Wyrmhelm, the Dark Clans, and even the Church are all acting with hidden motives. If you're not careful, you could easily be set up or betrayed."

Reginald laughed, and a powerful presence burst from him, carrying the aura of a seasoned warlord. "Andy, don't underestimate me. I may not be a match for the Veiled Faction, but with all these forces gathered in the Outlands right now? There is honestly no one I am afraid of."

He then changed the subject. "Oh, right. You know about Nyx's background. Her talent is on par with Sheena's, so you need to treat her well. I admit I had selfish reasons. Training her was partly a matter of conscience and humanity. But if she could become your ally and support, that would be ideal."

He added with a knowing smile, "Nyx is a lady who's cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If you treat her right, she'll never leave your side."

Andrew felt uncomfortable with his father's implications. "Well… Nyx is indeed an impressive character. But she's loyal to you, not me. Besides, people change. I can't guarantee I'll keep her around forever, and I won't force her to stay if she wants to leave."

Reginald looked out the window and chuckled. "Don't play dumb, you brat. There are many ways to keep a woman, but the true way is to win her heart. From what I can see, you still have a chance. I believe in you."

He teased, "Andrew, sometimes you need to be brave. You've found me daughters-in-law from everywhere except this foreign land. So figure out how to win this girl over. I won't give you specific advice, or Nyx will blame me! After all, I've raised her like my own daughter. As a father, I can't always take sides."

Andrew walked to the window and stared at the gloomy sky in the distance.

He stood there for a long, long time, completely lost in thought.

The other members of Dragonfang also turned to look into the distance from where they stood.

Everyone was silently watching their leader walk farther and farther away.
