Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2373

Sergio chuckled. "Mr. Vazquez, please go ahead. I'm satisfied with what I've acquired tonight, and I certainly wouldn't dream of competing with you for something you desire."

Just moments ago, he had been determined to win, yet now his tone flipped without hesitation. The change was swift and decisive, leaving no room for doubt. And for someone like him to back down so easily, it could only mean one thing.

The man in Suite No. 1 was none other than Guillermo Vazquez, the National Advisor of Holtrien. He was an influential figure whose very name could shake nations.

Without realizing it, Andrew's eyes grew cold. He had not expected to run into this man here, the one whose ties to him and Reginald were both mysterious and complicated.

Guillermo was a name that struck fear in anyone who heard it. Within Chetvine, there were five great clans, three royal families, and dozens of elite houses.

Surrounding Chetvine and extending throughout the entire northern region were countless gang networks, martial sects, and families both large and small. But among them all, if anyone held the title of most influential, most renowned, and most untouchable, it was unquestionably Guillermo.

Even Andrew recognized that this was an extraordinarily dangerous existence.

Many of the events from their past, including the complete annihilation of the Iron Cavalry and Reginald's desperate escape from Chetvine, were all shrouded in Guillermo's shadow.

No one knew his true face, only his influence.

What made it even more interesting was that Guillermo was not ranked first on the Titan List, the definitive ranking of the world's most powerful martial artists. However, no one in their right mind believed that Guillermo could not defeat whoever held that top position.

The difference was that the Titan List focused purely on martial combat within the martial world itself. Guillermo, by contrast, was someone who could manipulate both the martial underworld and the halls of government, reshaping global power dynamics with a single move.

In essence, he was a chess master that even Andrew could not fully comprehend.

Wherever Guillermo appeared, everyone else became potential pawns, including Andrew himself. Hence, he made the wise choice to remain silent and made no move to bid against him. It was not out of fear, but rather from understanding that raising his bid would be utterly pointless.
