Cyril snorted coldly. "Fine, since you've already guessed it, I'll just say it straight with you. The Ludendorff family has forged alliances with both the vampires and the werewolves. The Outlands is the gateway to Dark Sacred Mountain and The Blood Sanctum. The honor and downfall of the Ludendorff family are tied directly to the honor and downfall of those two Dark Clans."
He continued, "The werewolf progenitor and the vampire ancestors would never stand by and watch the Cathedral destroy the Ludendorff family."
The Blood Sanctum was the vampire clan's stronghold, a place that Andrew found utterly repulsive.
After a pause, Andrew sneered. "The Ludendorff family is human, yet you've sunk so low as to become lapdogs for the Dark Clans? To get these two Dark Clans to back you up as the King of the Wastelands, I bet your family has done plenty of bootlicking, even groveling on your knees, right?"
Cyril said coldly, "That's our family's internal business and none of your concern!"
Andrew looked at him, and his smile slowly turned cruel. "Do you know that I really hate vampires and werewolves? They enslave the human race in the Outlands, they're brutal and bloodthirsty, they see themselves as superior beings when they're actually vile, sinister, and murderous…"
He continued, "Yet, the Ludendorff family is willing to be their lapdogs. Cyril, that really pisses me off, understand?"
Cyril's face darkened, and he chose to keep his mouth shut.
Andrew waved his hand. "Go on back. When necessary, I'll send troops to coordinate with Throne City from behind, but I won't go easy on the werewolves or vampires."
Cyril said, "I hope you keep your word."
With that, he slunk away from Abyss City and headed back.
Andrew sat alone in the hall, propping his chin up with his hand and chuckling coldly. The Ludendorff family was definitely going down because the Outlands needed a new power in charge.
It was time for a change of leadership.
His motives were not anything sacred. It was not about saving humanity, freeing the Wastelands, or bringing peace to its people.
