Of course, Remus wasn't wondering about how to leave the Underworld court. If he wanted to leave this place, the guards and sentinels wouldn't be able to stop him. Instead, he was thinking about how to leave Netherhold.Under normal circumstances, once someone entered Netherhold, they could never leave. In other words, there was no feasible way to exit through standard means, and scaling the walls to escape wasn't really practical, either.But fighting his way out was a viable plan. However, the problem was that he had never heard of anyone breaking out through force.Plus, he was worried there might be formations or barriers at the city gates. If he was stopped, it could become quite troublesome. But at least for now, it didn't seem like there was a need for him to force his way out yet.Remus finally turned around and looked at Rodney. "Let me repeat to you what I just told him. I came here with no intention of causing trouble, and I simply want to leave as soon as possible."He

As soon as Devon said that, 20 guards simultaneously sprang into the air around the backyard's perimeter. Each held a soul whip, hovering in the air with fierce expressions, eager to pounce.However, Remus appeared calm and even gave a gesture of goodwill. "Captain Friedman, I was forced to do all of this. Please forgive me. I have no intention of opposing the Underworld—I just want to leave Netherworld, so I'm asking for your assistance.""How dare you?" Devon's anger boiled over. "Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to me while standing and even ask me for a favor? Since you refuse to repent, I'll personally educate you on the Underworld's rules today. Get him!"He deeply despised Remus. With his daring to ask Devon for a favor, people who didn't know any better might think he was on the same level as Devon.But in reality, he was just one of the many small-time figures in the Underworld, whereas Devon was the captain of the southern gate's guards. Their statuses were wo

After just three seconds, the grim reapers were forced to crouch at the front of the crowd.The courtyard was completely silent, and the scene was bizarre yet surprisingly harmonious.Previously, whether it was the guards, the nether sentinels, or Rodney, everyone's attention was on Devon. But now, everyone's eyes were on the grim reapers as they felt like they were on the verge of a meltdown.The grim reapers, though primarily in charge of collecting souls, were at the top of their group. Their power was considered above average throughout the Underworld.Everyone initially thought they could save them, but who would have thought that they were now crouching even more obediently than them? In that case, who else could possibly handle Remus?The grim reapers were also devastated, wondering where Remus came from. Whether he was powerful or not wasn't even the point right now.The real issue was that they were supposed to be shadow commanders, yet here they were, tied up and squatt

It seemed that Remus was back to square one. Netherhold remained inescapable.Based on the current information, the only way to get out of the city was to obtain authorization from the King of Hell, or alternatively, to have Devon turn a blind eye. However, it was clearly not possible anymore."I'm at a dead end!" Remus gritted out.He calculated the time in his mind again and realized that after all this trouble, at least 12 hours had passed. This meant that in another 12 hours, the demon energy inside him would erupt.Even though he knew Candace was a demon, the situation wasn't like before. With the marriage contract in hand, she should help him deal with the demon energy.Ultimately, the issue with the demon energy could be resolved, but he still needed to leave Netherhold and find her first."Is it possible that she knows me and left the demon energy just to intimidate me?"Remus thought about it for a moment before dismissing that unrealistic idea.First of all, everyone

Based on the sentence they couldn't finish before, Remus had assumed that the King of Hell was aware of the situation.If the King of Hell already knew and saw that Jamie and Arnold hadn't returned, he might come to inspect personally. If he came, Remus would just need to find a way to get him to issue a permit, and he could leave Netherhold smoothly. But right now, the king still didn't know…Jamie's eyes widened in anger. "You... You actually responded! As one of the Ten Shadow Commanders, how can you let yourself be threatened by a mere specter? I've already prepared myself for death, so why did you still answer him? Huh?"From his tone, it was clear that he was genuinely irritated.Arnold lowered his head, thinking that he couldn't just stand by and watch Jamie be humiliated. However, he couldn't bring himself to say it out loud, as responding would undermine his dignity."I... I truly despise you!" Jamie roared fiercely.At that moment, Remus spoke. "Since you're forcing him
