The satellite city of Aurora City was extremely close by.
Ramon charged straight to its gates with his battered remnants and roared, "Open the gates. Let us in, now."
The small city's gates opened immediately.
Andrew's eyes lit up with a sharp gleam. Without needing any signal, Nyx's figure sliced through the air again and again, landing directly atop the city walls.
What followed was a brutal slaughter.
Hearing the screams, Ramon knew the enemy had already caught up. While panic set in, his rage surged so hard his chest felt ready to burst.
"This has gone too far!"
With a furious roar, Ramon turned back and clashed with Andrew once more. He was buying time so all his remaining men could enter the city.
However, Petra and his main force, along with Juno, had already arrived. They launched a direct assault on the gates and broke through with little effort, flooding into the city.
Ramon's subordinates were already spooked. Moreover, after the losses at Aurora City, their combat strength had dropped sharply. One by one, they scattered in panic, caring only about escaping.
The original garrison in the small city, suddenly hit by this violent assault, had completely lost its bearings. They stumbled in confusion, not knowing how to respond.
Then, Nyx descended like a goddess of death, slaughtering her way through the city. Before long, all the city's elite fighters were eliminated.
In just ten minutes or so, Petra and his people announced they had captured the small city. The losses were so negligible that they could be ignored.
Without a word, Nyx gripped her blue-glowing daggers tightly and joined Andrew in a pincer attack on Ramon.
Andrew's greatsword descended from above, driving Ramon into the ground with clouds of dust billowing up.
Nyx flashed in and out of the dust cloud, trailing a long arc of blood.
Ramon had truly become a man with nothing. His subordinates were gone, his cities were lost, and even one of his arms was missing. Just like Garal, the former lord of Abyss City, he had been carved apart by Andrew's greatsword.
Andrew ignored Ramon's curses entirely.
Walking to Nyx's side, he said, "The aura on him just now felt a lot like the progenitor of the werewolves. I once sensed the same thing on Kaelan. It doesn't matter. Let him run. A stray like him will end up perishing along with the Ludendorff family anyway!"
Even after taking two cities in succession, Andrew and Nyx did not rest for a moment. They looted the small city clean, taking all the weapons and valuables, then departed.
The victorious Abyss City forces were all in high spirits, each one radiating killing intent.
Andrew had Petra station his men in Aurora City, while Franz and Knox would immediately return to defend Abyss City.
There were more than 2000 captured soldiers.
The assets and stockpiles Ramon had left behind in Aurora City left Andrew genuinely stunned.

Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Rising from the Ashes (Andrew)
The author is insanely inconsistent with Christina's character. She was loyal enough to withstand torture until she fainted, and refused to call Andrew when she was kidnapped (even though it was out of a misplaced sense of protectiveness due to her lack of trust in him). This shows that despite her family being trash (other than Dougals), she is at least a good peson at heart. Then she suddenly turns into someone spiteful and evil simply because the author is no longer intersted in patching them back up, and has decided to set him up with Lauren and Fran. That's his choice, but at least be consistent....
