So, did Remus really have to turn back? No way!He had come this far and almost got discovered, but the search was going to get even stricter. If he turned back now, there was no way he could make it back to the city gate. Even if he did, there was a formation there, so he still wouldn't be able to get out.The owner could tell what Remus was thinking and said hesitantly, "If you want to leave Netherhold, I do have a way, but it's a bit risky."Remus quickly asked, "What is it?"The owner straightforwardly replied, "Take the overseer hostage! As long as you do that, anyone will let you leave the city. However, this plan only works for getting out of the city. What to do after that is uncertain."Remus sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of regret about the situation.Initially, he didn't want things to escalate, so he held back. Had he known things would turn out this way, he would have simply taken the grim reapers and beastly wardens hostage and left much earlier. Alas, he had mis

The young man, Claude Henson, smirked. "What you're saying is just sour grapes. His script is something countless people dream of having."If it were offered to me, I'd take it in a heartbeat, even if it meant not being reincarnated for 100 years. You just didn't get the chance, but if you did, you'd be over the moon with joy. Ha!"Remus was taken aback by the comment, but he didn't get upset. Smiling, he explained, "You've misunderstood my point. I didn't mean that his script isn't good. Rather, getting hold of a good script doesn't guarantee he'll lead a good life."Many people in the Mortal Realm believe in wizardry. In The Principles of Flux, its opening words highlight principles of diligence and virtue."'As heaven maintains vigor, a wise person continually strives for improvement; as the earth is vast, a wise person is virtuous and accommodating.' In short, with effort, anything can be changed."This statement was true.Claude scoffed. "Some people start at a point that ma

Allen wore a serious expression as he said, "It can't continue like this. At this rate, the entire Underworld will be thrown into chaos. We must come up with a solution."Nick frowned. "The entire inner city is on lockdown, so why haven't they caught that person yet? Why haven't we received any updates?"Grant paused for a moment and looked at Roman. "Your Majesty, these are unprecedented phenomena that have never occurred in the Underworld. Do you have any idea what's happening?"The other four ghost kings all looked over at the same time.Ultimately, Roman was the Underworld's ruler, and it could be said that he was one of the two most powerful individuals in the Three Realms.In theory, nothing happening within the Three Realms could escape his sight or control, especially now when these events were occurring in the Underworld. He should have some clues about it.The five ghost kings previously believed that everything was under control and there was no need for Roman to perso

Inside, Pedro didn't stay in the Reincarnation Hall but went past it to the back.Remus didn't ask questions, either, and followed Pedro as he casually observed the hall. It resembled the ancient buildings in Centuria. There were seats at the front, but instead of being made of pure gold, they were crafted from quartz marble.Inside the hall, over a dozen marble columns supported the structure, each intricately carved with patterns of clouds, the sun, and the moon.Besides that, it was very spacious. This was probably a place solely used for meetings. Those who entered the Reincarnation Office wouldn't stay here and instead would leave through eight small doors on either side.Remus followed Pedro all the way to the back of the hall. Once they were there, Pedro quickly dropped to one knee. "Greetings, Monarch of Mortals!"Remus gave a wry smile and said, "Come on, stand up. I'm not the Monarch of Mortals at the moment but a fugitive. You must have heard the news. I'm sorry I've ca

It would be really embarrassing if they couldn't present anything at all!William looked at Pedro and asked, "What kind of script did that person receive, and into what family were they reborn?"Pedro blurted out, "He'll be born in an ordinary family in Brenia, will lead an ordinary life, and die of old age."The ten kings exchanged glances with one another, suddenly feeling stuck. They didn't know what to tell the ghost kings and Roman when they couldn't even bring the suspect back. What should they do?Bryce removed the barrier around the Reincarnation Office with a wave of his hand and said, "Everyone, we're running out of time. We need to figure out a solution quickly. If we keep running around like headless chickens, we'll just be wasting our efforts."Cyrus Sweeney, one of the kings, sighed. "We've intensified the efforts to capture him within the city, but so far, we've had no success. This thief is truly cunning."Another king, Leonidas Kline, sternly commanded, "Search o
