Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2842

At the foot of Mount Lourneau, Andrew and Valerie found a restaurant to grab a bite.

"I don't want you to go!" Listlessly poking at her food, Valerie looked completely dejected.

Andrew finished everything on his plate and smiled. "Don't worry. I'm just going overseas, not disappearing forever. Valerie, be reasonable. Right now, I have important things I need to take care of. First, there's my father's safety and whereabouts. I have to make the trip to the Dark Clans' main stronghold.

"Second, there's my mother's connection to The Veiled Faction. I need to investigate this ancient hidden organization and confirm whether she is still alive."

Tears welled up in Valerie's eyes. "Then wouldn't it be better if I went with you? Andrew, I came out here with you, and along the way, I didn't care about any hardship. But in the end, you're leaving me behind in Holtrien and sailing across the ocean! When will I see you again?"

Andrew fell silent. He honestly did not know when they would meet again. Before, his main stage had been Holtrien. But now, for his parents' sake, he had to go to another world. Besides, there was no place left for him in Chetvine anymore.

Now that they had broken all pretenses, Guillermo would surely stop at nothing to hunt him down.

Andrew was not afraid, but he knew it was not the time for a final showdown with Guillermo just yet. He needed to reach at least the martial god level first. When he returned, that would be the day of reckoning.

Valerie pleaded, "Don't make me go back to Chetvine alone. Andrew, let me come with you, please? I can help you, trust me!"

Andrew remained silent, then gave a bitter smile. "Valerie, I want to bring you along too, but I can't be that selfish. First, this overseas journey is bound to be dangerous. Also, you're the young lady of the Reyes family. If I take you away, Mr. Reyes Senior and your family will worry."
