Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 3056

After leaving the Cathedral camp, Nyx said, "I told you the Cathedral wouldn't join forces with us. On the contrary, the moment they get a chance, they'll turn around and wipe us out."

Andrew smiled. "It's fine. I never expected Kass to agree from the start anyway. If you want to put it nicely, the followers of the God of Light are pure. If you want to be blunt, they're foolish and rigid. War isn't something any single side can dictate alone.

"The Cathedral wants to wipe out every other power in the Outlands on its own and swallow everything in the end. Even if the Pope himself came, it would not happen, let alone the people they have now."

Nyx said seriously, "You just mentioned that the Cathedral will send more powerful figures. I'm worried they'll send someone as terrifying as the Mephiston."

Andrew raised an eyebrow. "Who do you think it'll be?"

Nyx replied, "I actually know quite a bit about Lomuia Grand Cathedral. My country used to be followers of the Cathedral, and I served the Lord faithfully from a young age."

Andrew smiled. "And now? You're with me, a blasphemer. Doesn't that mean you've betrayed your faith?"

Nyx bit her lower lip and shook her head. "You know I don't believe in anything anymore. Ever since I went through all that pain, grew up in suffering, and lost all my loved ones, I stopped believing in everything. If there's anyone I can still believe in now, it's you."

Seeing her stunningly beautiful face filled with affection, Andrew felt a warmth in his heart. "Let's go. We'll head back to Abyss City first. From now on, you won't have to suffer alone anymore. At least, you won't have to face it by yourself."

Nyx smiled gently. "Andrew, you really know how to charm women. But let's be serious for a moment. I suspect the Cathedral will send another Cardinal Archbishop."

Nyx smiled bitterly. "From what I know, Arya is on the same level as Mr. Lloyd Senior."

Andrew slowly exhaled. "So that's Beyond Mortal Limits. Lomuia Grand Cathedral really has accumulated quite a bit of power over the past thousand years."

Nyx said earnestly, "Andrew, don't get into a conflict with Arya. Especially don't let her think you're truly a blasphemer. She has an obsessive need to purify. Once she believes you're deliberately blaspheming her faith, she won't care about reason or anything else; she'll purify you directly. And as you know, purification in the Cathedral often means execution."

Andrew replied flatly, "I've always maintained a neutral stance toward Lomuia Grand Cathedral's faith. I don't participate, I don't interfere, but I don't support it either. In short, if people don't mess with me, I won't mess with them. But if they do, then there's no choice but to fight."

Nyx chuckled helplessly. "I knew that's how you'd be. Let's go, we'll head back first. Even if Arya comes personally, she'll have to deal with the dark army and the Ludendorff family first."
