Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3044

Ramon turned back and lunged at Andrew, who was closing in fast. Even if he died, he would make this bastard pay a price.

However, when Andrew's greatsword came crashing down like a meteor, Ramon knew he was beyond saving. Even in a head-on fight, his current condition meant he would just be delivering himself to Andrew like a lamb to the slaughter.

After Andrew kicked him hard in the chest, Ramon was sent flying, blood trailing through the air.

He shouted, "Retreat!"

Fighting through the excruciating pain that threatened to tear his body apart, Ramon knew he could not abandon what few men he had left. Otherwise, he would truly become a man with nothing. From the lord of Aurora City to a lone wanderer with nothing to his name.

That was unacceptable.

On Aurora City's walls, Nyx's black robe billowed in the wind, but she did not pursue Ramon. Petra ordered a ceasefire and opened the gates, personally leading forces to chase after Ramon and his handful of remaining subordinates.

Ramon covered the rear, his eyes filled with venomous hatred. Only after his group of fewer than 300 men had escaped into the distance did he turn and flee.

Andrew strolled leisurely into Aurora City, greatsword in hand.

Nyx approached him and asked, "Why didn't you let me just wipe out Ramon's remaining forces?"

Andrew shook his head. "It's not that I won't. We just need to hold off for now."
