Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2983

Prescott shouted, "You all saw that, right? This idiot actually trashed the corpses of the Cathedral's fallen warriors. To the faithful of Lomuia Grand Cathedral, such an act is a deep blasphemy. This moron just provoked Cathedral's entire army."

Knox shrugged, looking innocent. "Andrew doesn't know that. You saw it yourself. He was being beaten back by the Cathedral's warriors, completely overwhelmed. If he didn't do something to hit back, wouldn't he have died for nothing?"

Prescott roared, "Shut up! All of you from Dragonfang, prepare immediately to participate in Abyss City's defense. If I catch anyone slacking off, playing tricks, or deserting during battle, I'll execute them on the spot without question!"

…

Meanwhile, outside the city. Andrew appeared to be barely holding on, stumbling as he fled back toward Abyss City.

In reality, a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips. He had not wanted to antagonize the Cathedral too deeply. However, the moment the battle started, the Cathedral fighters had ignored the slaves entirely and shot them down without hesitation.

That cruelty made Andrew see the Cathedral army for what it truly was. As a result, his anger flared, and his methods became ruthless.

After suffering losses, the Cathedral vanguard had not intended to advance the main force. After all, Abyss City was not an easy target to take on. However, Andrew's next actions completely enraged the Cathedral's army watching from afar.

Those holy warriors had died on the battlefield to spread the glory of their Lord. That was supposed to be an honorable death, and their souls were meant to ascend to heaven. Yet now, this devil had not only killed them but also desecrated their bodies.

According to Lomuia Grand Cathedral's doctrine, warriors treated this way could not ascend to heaven after death.

Andrew's action instantly added fuel to the fire. The Cathedral's army in the distance erupted in fury and prematurely launched a siege on Abyss City.
