---- Chapter 3167 Running into old friends in a distantnd 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 rxed and less oppressive than the Ludendorff family''s previous reign. Because of this, the city''s poption, which had been drained by war, was gradually growing again.
Resources began circting again, and you could find just about anything you needed. Andrew had avish 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 awkwardugh and set down the chicken leg he was holding. After wiping his mouth, he turned to Andrew and spoke cautiously. ---- "Mr. Lloyd, thank you for your hospitality." Andrew smiled. "No need to be so formal.
You''ve all been working hard for our homnd, far from home. I''m from Holtrien myself, so looking after my own people is the least I can do." Kyrie hesitated for a moment before speaking with an awkward grin. "However, I believe the rtionship between the Harding family and yourself isn''t exactly... friendly." Andrew replied calmly. "I know. Sergio wanted me dead back home. So, I''ll be returning soon to ask him what he meant by that, and whether he has a death wish." Kyrie choked on a piece of chicken, and his face went pale. He red at Andrew with a look of anger.
Andrew, however, did not even nce his way and instead spoke gently to Valerie and Luna. "Take your time, eat slowly. There''s more if you want it, and don''t choke." Several icy gazes fell upon Kyrie. He shivered, instinctively turned to look, and immediately broke out ina cold sweat. He awkwardly turned back and pretended nothing was wrong as he continued eating Not far away, Othniel, Hershel, Petra, and Juno were all watching Kyrie with unfriendly expressions.
If this brat dared to be even slightly disrespectful or act out of line in Throne City, they would ---- not mind teaching him a lesson. Andrew was now the Lord of Throne City and the undisputed tuler of the Wastnds. Even old-timers like Othniel bowed to no one but Andrew. In Othniel''s eyes, an outsider like Kyrie was insignificant. With just one signal from Andrew, they would not hesitate to kill Kyrie. They did not care if Kyrie was from Holtrien or not. In the Ounds, no one''s nationality mattered. The only authority they recognized was Andrew, the ruler of the Wastnds.
Once everyone seemed to have eaten their fill, Andrew finally asked, "Is it just the four of you? Are there any others?" Conrad answered, "There were others originally. A senior military general, Mr. Marco Acosta, was traveling with us. But we got caught up in the war that swept across the entire Wastnds. General Acosta was stationed at a secret Holtrien military base, and he was discovered and died fighting for our country." Andrew remained silent about this, as he could only offer his regret and sympathy. Luna then said, "Actually, we''ve been in the Ounds for a while now.
Back then, we were in the Deands looking for Mr. Lloyd Senior." ---- Andrew was surprised. "You were in the Deands too? I was. actually there myself, but I didn''t see you." Luna''s gaze wasden with implication. She nced at Nyx, who was standing beside Andrew with a cold expression. Then, she said, "You didn''t see us, but Valerie and I both saw you then."
