Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1953

"Praise the Eternal Eclipse!"

Just as Walter was about to be killed, a solemn chant rang in Andrew's ear.

Matthias finally showed the true skill that earned him the title of Gabo Creek's number one fighter. With a single palm strike, he forced Victoria back, then moved like lightning, striking at Andrew's unguarded back.

Without thinking, Andrew raised his hand and unleashed an Inferno Strike, meeting Matthias head-on.

The clash exploded like muffled thunder, a scorching wave of force whipping across the ruined cafeteria until it was reduced to complete rubble.

Andrew grunted and was forced a few steps backward, while Matthias stood firm, lowering his hand.

Pointing at Andrew, he roared, "Mr. Lloyd, this is a sacred ground of Solmortis. How dare you spill blood here?"

Andrew's expression did not change; this self-righteous act from the bald monk was enough to make him sick.

"Andrew, kill them all. Don't let a single one walk away. This monk is mine!" Victoria called out, her voice sharp with excitement. She had no intention to stop.

The once one-sided battle had now completely shifted. As long as she kept Matthias occupied, Walter, Scarlett, and Bradley were as good as dead.

Andrew's palm came down toward Walter again.

Matthias gave a cold laugh. "Your Inferno Strike may be powerful, but my Mighty Beast Palm will not lose to you!"

The two exchanged strikes twice more, their blows sending shockwaves through the air.

Matthias' face flushed red, his body radiating heat, while Andrew's veins felt like they were on fire, blood rising in his throat.
