Chapter 69

Author: Only For You
Lauren clapped her hands excitedly. "Dr. Lloyd, you're amazing! Number Seven actually won!"

Her joyful laughter caused Harvey, Bernard, and their group's faces to darken. However, Mark maintained his composure and smiled.

"Don't be discouraged, everyone. Such is the thrill of horse racing—you never know who the dark horse will be until the very end!"

The mayor's words prompted immediate agreement from the crowd.

"Well said, Mr. Thatcher!"

"Absolutely, Mr. Thatcher! Anyone could be the

    "We are heading to bed first."Knox, Petra, Juno, and the others showed zero support. The moment they sensed trouble brewing, they disappeared without hesitation.Othniel, however, looked thoughtful and smiled at Andrew. "You are truly blessed with an enviable situation. If we followed the rules of the Highland Tribe, it would be simple: just sleep together. But four people on one bed would indeed be a bit crowded. So I suggest you call them in one by one to serve you."After saying that, he walked away with a smug smile, convinced his brilliant advice would make Andrew happy.However, Andrew's expression was grim.Calling them in one by one to serve him?What a fantasy. In reality, it was he who would be dragged around to serve those little queens one after another.Nyx snorted and said, "Andrew, are you still not coming with me?"Andrew forced a bitter smile and said, "Coming. Let's all go together!"Valerie blocked him, while Luna hugged him from behind.The two women said

    Andrew ordered another full spread of food to be served. They had been traveling nonstop, and as martial artists, their appetites were anything but small.Conrad looked a little embarrassed, but Andrew raised his hand and told him not to overthink it. So, Conrad lowered his head again and started eating like his life depended on it.Andrew said, "The global situation is about to shift, and we're actually going back home at a good time."Luna replied, "Exactly, we noticed it too. Recently, people from the four Western nations have been increasingly active in the Outlands. What's more, they're openly clashing with us from Holtrien. All of these are bad signs. The main reason we evacuated was that our secret military base had already come under attack." Andrew chose not to tell them about the Vampire Queen's awakening just yet, as that threat still felt too distant from their immediate concerns.The forces of the West had never been something to underestimate. Holtrien had its visib

    Valerie said, "That's right, we both saw you. When the entrance to the Veiled Paradise opened, Mr. Lloyd Senior ordered us to leave ahead of time. We all knew there would be a battle, and staying would've meant certain death. So before the entrance opened, we evacuated. And while evacuating, we saw you and Ms. Kerrigan rushing over!" Andrew nodded in understanding. "You made the right call to withdraw. The situation back then was indeed very dangerous."Conrad finished every last drop of milk in his glass before speaking. "A full-scale war swept through the entire Outlands, and many of Holtrien's military bases were affected. We held our position, first waiting for orders from back home and, second, for Mr. Lloyd Senior to emerge from the sanctuary. But things developed far more severely than we imagined."He continued, "In the Wastelands, besides the Ludendorff family as the dominant power, there was an invasion by the Cathedral's forces, followed by the rampage of the Dark Trinit

    Running into old friends in a distant land was always something worth celebrating. Andrew immediately invited Luna, Valerie, Conrad, and Kyrie to move to the dining area.They had clearly endured a long journey, and even the usually reserved Luna's eyes lit up at the mention of food. Throne City was now rich in supplies and stable, with a peaceful environment. Andrew's rule here was much more relaxed and less oppressive than the Ludendorff family's previous reign. Because of this, the city's population, which had been drained by war, was gradually growing again.Resources began circulating again, and you could find just about anything you needed. Andrew had a lavish feast prepared for his guests. Seeing how Kyrie ate and drank like a starved man, stuffing himself without restraint, Valerie snorted coldly. She said, "Someone should watch their manners. This isn't your home."Kyrie let out an awkward laugh and set down the chicken leg he was holding. After wiping his mouth, he

    Andrew said, "I am now the King of the Wastelands, the ruler of Throne City, and the overlord of the entire Outlands. So if you make me uncomfortable, even a great beauty like you will not escape my hands."Luna felt both shy and embarrassed as she mumbled, "Do not be like that… We haven't seen each other for so long, and there are so many people here, I…"Andrew cut her off directly. "I will give you one chance!"Feeling both embarrassed and frustrated, Luna opened her mouth and softly called out, "Honey…"Andrew laughed heartily and stepped forward to embrace her. Luna could not hold back her emotions any longer and wrapped her arms around him in return. Even her usual reserve could not withstand the flood of longing in her heart.In the Throne Hall, Knox, Petra, and Juno, who were sitting in the corner snacking, all stared with their eyes wide open in disbelief. "Holy crap, Andrew has two more stunning beauties back in Holtrien?" one of them muttered."No kidding… I always

    Nyx looked sad as she shook her head. "I don't understand why Arya would end up like this. She was the Cathedral's archangel, someone with a bright future ahead of her. But somehow, she still fell. Andrew, could there be some hidden reason behind this? Like maybe she was schemed against or harmed by the Vampire Queen?"Andrew thought for a moment and shook his head. "Probably not. While an angel's fall can be achieved through temptation, that only works on lower-ranking angels. Someone like Arya, the Cathedral's strongest angel, the Pope's right hand, couldn't possibly be seduced unless a crack had already formed in Arya's radiant heart. Only then could the darkness find a way in."Nyx hesitated before asking, "Then did something break inside Arya during her last battles?"Andrew said coldly, "That's her own issue. I've always said Arya was too pure, and being so pure that she couldn't tell gray from black, fighting what she called 'evil' to the bitter end was just foolish."When s
