Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2443

Andrew nodded. "It's necessary. I'm looking for Silverthorn Monastery's Fang and Claw's Demise."

Luna frowned. "Silverthorn Monastery's Fang and Claw's Demise might be refined, but it's not known for its destructive power. It's also just an Obscure-tier technique, not even Earthly-tier. Can I ask what you need it for?"

Andrew smiled. "To kill someone."

The light in Luna's beautiful eyes flickered twice. "Mr. Vazquez's subordinate, Jaden, recently survived an assassination attempt that nearly killed him. This incident has already caused quite a stir in Chetvine. Right now, all of Chetvine is looking for that audacious person.

"And Jaden's greatest strength is his ability to transform into a beast. His special cultivation method gives him beast-like ferocity and brutality, and he can heal from even the most severe injuries.

"So now, you just happen to be looking for Fang and Claw's Demise, a technique that might not be powerful overall, but is devastating against creatures with corrupted or beastly energy."

Luna's gaze burned into him. "Andrew, if I put all that together, am I right to assume you're the one who attacked Jaden?"

Andrew did not hide anything under her piercing stare. "Yeah, it was me. And that was just the appetizer. The main course comes next. I'll make sure he swallows his own downfall, every last bite."

Luna slowly exhaled. "Come with me. I know which floor Fang and Claw's Demise is on."

Andrew followed behind her, but felt somewhat uncomfortable. "Aren't you going to arrest me? Turn me in to Mr. Vazquez? Or at least ask me why?"

Her tall, poised figure moved ahead of him, her ponytail swaying slightly behind her. A faint scent drifted through the air, and Andrew blinked in surprise.

Luna's clearance level allowed her to retrieve it easily. "Here you go. I've actually trained in this technique before. How should I put it? It has good technique but lacks power. Its most miraculous aspect is that it carries sacred chants when executed, which has an excellent deterrent effect on beasts and animals.

"If you want to use it against Jaden's beast transformation, it should work very well. But even if it works well, Jaden himself is no pushover. I think killing him might be difficult. And…"

She paused, her eyes worried as she spoke. "Andrew, I really hope you don't completely burn bridges with Mr. Vazquez. He's not the kind of man we can afford to provoke right now."

Andrew smiled. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

He took the Fang and Claw's Demise manual and began to look through it.
