Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2767

Julius' abrupt departure drew complaints from some of the attendees at the estate.

Someone commented, "Mr. Bowen really doesn't care about what others think, does he? He comes and goes as he pleases."

Another chimed in, "That's just how he is. What can you do? The Divine Alchemists are just that powerful."

Someone else snorted and said, "Yeah, the Divine Alchemists were so mighty that Reginald stormed right into their headquarters. They were so mighty they couldn't do a single thing to him for years."

Hearing the mocking tone spreading across the room, Guillermo raised his hand in a calming gesture. "Alright, Mr. Bowen had business to attend to, so we let him leave first. All you need to know is that when the fighting starts, Mr. Bowen will be the first one to strike."

Kelvin laughed. "Of course he will! Mr. Bowen probably dreams about killing Reginald every night."

Guillermo nodded. "Reginald's situation is straightforward enough. It'll be king versus king, a direct head-on confrontation. But Andrew's case requires more careful planning on my part."

Bill frowned. "Guillermo, you should know that many things work best when kept simple. The Lloyd family's Dragon Prince hasn't fully spread his wings yet. All this elaborate preparation seems excessive."

Guillermo shook his head. "Mr. Hudson, it's not excessive at all. You don't understand how formidable this young man is. If we're going to make a move, we need to go all out, like a lion hunting a rabbit. So right now, I need to know which other parties are willing to help hunt down Andrew."

Kelvin said lazily, "My family can spare two men. Those two deadweights are useless following me around anyway. I'm going to witness the undefeated War God of the Lloyd family in action. They can deal with Andrew instead."

Guillermo nodded with a smile. "Good, that's two from your side. But the more the merrier. Anyone else?"

Immediately, two other leaders indicated they would send people to join the hunt. However, from their dismissive attitudes, it was clear they did not take the threat from Andrew's side very seriously.

Finally, Guillermo said, "I'll only be sending two people from my side."

That instantly made several people unhappy, and someone said bluntly, "Mr. Vazquez, that's pretty shady. You just want us to die first so you don't have to risk your own people. You think that will fly?"

Guillermo shook his head. "Gentlemen, you're misunderstanding me. When I say two people from my side, one of them will be me. Now, do you all feel that my sincerity is adequate?"

The others immediately nodded in agreement. As long as Guillermo himself was entering the fray, the sincerity was undeniable.

They did not even care who the other person Guillermo was sending. In their eyes, his subordinates were just complete nobodies.

Guillermo clapped his hands twice, stood up, and smiled. "Then let's end this game as soon as possible."

The others did not waste another word and vanished into the night. Within two minutes, the heavy tension inside the estate began to dissolve.
