Had they conspired together? Remus said sternly, "Impossible. I'm not going to anyone's room tonight but yours. Open the door!"There was silence in the room.Remus continued with a serious tone, "I'll give you three seconds to think over it. If you don't open the door, I'll break it down!"It was just a door lock and a single punch from him could easily destroy the door and even the whole room. Three seconds passed, and the inside of the room remained silent.Remus clenched his teeth in frustration. He really wanted to kick the door down, but such matters required mutual consent, and forcing it wouldn't be appropriate.He walked back to Jean's door and said with a smile, "Jean, after thinking about it, I realize I like you more. Open the door, and I'll tell you how much I like you."Jean remained silent.Remus' expression immediately turned sour. He couldn't comprehend what was going on and how he had fallen into the same trap twice.He threatened, "I command you to open t
Though Remus had little inclination to engage with her, he couldn't afford to show any disrespect in the presence of Goetz and Sir Baker.He turned and offered a polite smile as he asked, "Indeed, I heard you were away. When did you return?"At that point, he had to feign ignorance and couldn't reveal his true identity as Remus Calsberg.Gemma rolled her eyes and replied, "I just came back. I've been traveling abroad, exploring the beauty of the world. I didn't expect that in just a few short months, you'd have grown to this extent. Remus, you've become quite impressive."When they first met, he was just a nobody trying to join the Dragon Team and got easily manipulated by Rain. But he was currently a renowned figure in Darsia and even globally.Remus brushed it off and said, "People grow and change. Please come inside.""You're right!" Gemma nodded and walked into the main hall with her head held high.Everyone settled down and engaged in casual conversation over a few cups of
Gemma said, "We can try to get along while moving forward."She believed that it was often easier for a woman to initiate contact with a man than for a man to approach a woman. As long as he wasn’t repulsed by her, Gemma was confident that she could win him over in three days.Listening to her, Remus felt increasingly irritated. If it weren't for the sake of her grandfather, he would have already slapped her just to see how long she could cry.Just as he was about to speak, Gemma suddenly suggested, "Grandpa and Sir Baker, why don't you let Remus and I have a private chat? The garden of the Cosby residence is quite nice, maybe you can take a walk there.""That's a good idea," both men agreed and slowly got up. They added before they left, "Remy, Gemma is a rare gem of a partner, you should consider it seriously."Remus was rendered speechless.After the two left, only Gemma and Remus remained in the hall.Gemma took a seat across from Remus, her gaze unwavering as she began, "
When Gemma heard the name "Remus Calsberg", she trembled in disbelief, looking at Remus in astonishment.How did he know about Remus Calsberg?Although the so-called True Life and mundane world both existed in Darsia, their lifestyles were different, making it challenging for them to interact.How could he possibly know?Remus continued pressing, his tone unyielding, "If the information I've gathered is accurate, you also have affection for Remus Calsberg, don't you? "You've even made advances toward him? Is it because your attempts with him didn't succeed that you're now considering me as a backup plan? Must I delve further into these unpleasant truths, Gemma Malin?"He refrained from resorting to outright insults, knowing that most girls would typically feel embarrassed and leave in such a situation. However, things didn't unfold as he had anticipated.Gemma suddenly smiled and remarked, "Remus Cosby, how can you claim to not have any feelings for me? If you truly didn't ca
Gemma understood that sometimes, a straightforward confrontation could yield surprising results.Miranda spoke coldly, "You're not worthy of him!"Gemma responded with a disdainful snort, "And you are? You're merely the daughter of a local tycoon. Your current status is solely dependent on Remus. Strip that away, and what's left?"In terms of status, Gemma indeed had a deeper background, ranking at the top in all of Darsia.Miranda retorted with a sneer, "Even without Remus, I still have wealth. Without Sir Malin, what are you? A woman who flirts around trying to climb the social ladder? Or a stray dog marking its territory everywhere?"Hearing this, Remus was stunned. Indeed, women understood women the best, and her words were quite forceful.Gemma's face turned red from anger, and she clenched her fists, ready to retaliate.Gabriela chimed in, "If you're feeling empty, I can lend you a long spear. That should be enough for you!"She said this as she slammed her hand down, and
Upon hearing Gabriela and Miranda's response, Remus' blood flow suddenly accelerated.A sense of unease had gnawed at him ever since he left the shower early that time, as it seemed evident they were aware he was bathing. The thought that he had been expecting too much had crossed his mind, but now it was clear that he had missed his chance.He slowly got up and asked tentatively, "How about this? We can make up for what we left unfinished last time. I also really want to take a shower, so we can do it together, and then—"Before he could finish his sentence, Gabriela instantly raised the Blue Tassel Silver Spear in her hand, menacingly pointing it at Remus."Uh..." Remus had to swallow the rest of his words.Miranda said coldly, "Nice try, but do you really think that's possible?""You had your chance, and you blew it!" Gabriela added."Remus, quickly say whose hairpin that is, confess and you'll be treated leniently, resist and the consequences will be severe!" Miranda declare
Miranda had flipped through six wedding betrothals and saw the last name "Walter" on the seventh one. It appeared to be the twins Remus had mentioned earlier.She then opened the eighth one. When she saw the name on it, her whole body froze as if she had seen something unbelievable, and her eyes were glued to the wedding betrothal."What's wrong?" Gabriela asked in surprise.Remus was also confused. Could there be a problem with the wedding betrothal?Previously, he had only flipped through the betrothals one by one, seeking out each person named, and had not looked at the last two."Wilda Hewitt... Monington Sacred Land!" Miranda said the words out loud, then lifted her head, looking at Remus in disbelief. There was someone from the Sacred Lands among his fiancees?Remus furrowed his brow, equally surprised. What kind of influence did Master Tyson have to arrange an engagement with someone from the sacred lands?"Monington Sacred Land?" Gabriela furrowed her brow, clearly unf
"There isn't!" Miranda shook her head and said, "At least not in the Dragon Team's archives. The Sacred Lands have remained the only place that has been unexplorable for us."Hearing this, Remus couldn't help but become more solemn.The Dragon Team's archives had been honed over generations, and the absence of any records of such a place suggested that it truly didn't exist. Yet, the question remained.How could Seraphine possibly be within one of those Sacred Lands?"What's wrong?" Miranda and Gabriela asked when they noticed his expression change. Despite their bluster toward him, they were still concerned for him."There's a major issue," Remus said concisely and began to walk out.The two women followed him, their hearts filled with anxiety.As they stepped outside, Remus spoke with a grave tone, "First, help me investigate Joe Cosby."His energy suddenly surged, and he rose into the air.Watching his figure, the two women said in unison, "No problem, we'll go right now.
Time flew by quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.Before this, Darsia's citizens were unaware of the immortals descending to their realm. However, by nightfall, it became impossible to hide this fact, as 15 bright stars appeared in the sky.Darsia's citizens had all witnessed the past battle between Remus and the Upper Realms, so the current scene felt both familiar and not to them.The familiarity came from the unusual phenomena in the sky that night. The unfamiliarity came from the fact that there were no other unusual signs apart from these 15 stars, making it much smaller in scale compared to that night.Among these 15 stars, 13 of them were white and evenly distributed across various locations in Darsia. Another was gold, hovering directly above Centuria, while the last one was only faintly visible.The gold star was a Golden Immortal leading the 13 white stars, who were Celestial Immortals. And the last one was a heavenly official.The Golden Immortal an
If they didn't surrender, the people of Darsia would face casualties in the tens of millions.Of course, the most important thing was that no matter how hard the Mortal Realm tried or resisted, it could not even land a finger on the Upper Realms. If they were to fight, the outcome wouldn't just be one-sided—they would lose by a landslide.None of them could bring themselves to say it, but they knew the responsibility for doing this unpleasant task fell on them.The sound of sobbing rang out in the conference room again.Kaiser glanced around at the women, fully aware that no one felt more aggrieved than they did. However, there was nothing he could do. Despite being the president, he was powerless.Still, he had to ask, "Do any of you disagree?"None of them responded. They had countless things to say, but they all boiled down to the fact that they were simply not strong enough. If there were even the slightest chance of victory, they would resist without hesitation.Unfortunate
Kaiser couldn't help but sigh when he saw them.This was his first time seeing them since Remus died. Judging by the state they were in, it seemed they hadn't finished mourning Remus.It makes sense. After all, he was their fiancé, as well as the greatest hero from ancient times to now. How could they easily move on from that?The ten women took their seats and turned to look at Kaiser.Gabriela said slowly, "Mr. President, you should consider dyeing your hair."At this point, his hair was completely white.Kaiser waved his hand and managed a smile. "In the past, I had to maintain Darsia's image, so I couldn't have any gray hair. Now that things are like this, there's no point in worrying about it. It's good to just let things be."Even with a head full of black hair, it could not change the impact caused by Remus' death, so there was no point in making a fuss about it.Kaiser paused and said, "I invited you all here today to discuss an important matter. Just this morning, the
The energy in the Underworld was currently in high demand, and the supply couldn't keep up. It was essential to reclaim the Pathic Energies to ensure the energy would continue to be released, and no one could stand in their way.Roman simply said, "I'm not asking what you would do if it was taken from you. I'm asking if there's a possibility it could be taken."The ghost kings couldn't help but look at him. If it were possible...Roman didn't give them much time to think and continued, "Let me put it another way. Even if Remus shows up, would anyone believe it was the Celestial Sovereign who saved him? Would the Celestial Sovereign admit that he was the one who rescued him?"Everyone, have you ever considered that the Celestial Sovereign has never publicly acknowledged that Remus carries his bloodline? If he suddenly denies it and claims that it was the Underworld that saved him, how should we respond?"The other fice sucked in a sharp breath.Paul was frustrated again. "Does he
Roman did not respond immediately and instead thought deeply about it with a serious expression.At this point, what happened to Remus no longer mattered. In fact, it might be better to say Roman would love to see Remus hurry off to fight the Upper Realms.But the issue was that people in the Upper Realms didn't know that Remus was still alive. What would they do if they saw him appear again? Would it affect Roman?It was like what the ghost kings initially thought—within the Three Realms, the only ones who could save Remus were Roman and Francis.Once Remus was exposed, Francis would naturally deny being the one who saved him, leaving Roman as the only one who could have done so. By then, he would become the target of everyone's criticism.So, before figuring out how to handle the aftermath, there was no way he could let Francis find out about this."Your Majesty?" Noticing Roman was hesitant to speak, the ghost kings couldn't help but urge him for a response.Roman took a deep
Remus didn't want to admit it, but he had to—here, he felt like he was immobile while the world around him was in constant motion.In other words, he had no control over what was happening and could only passively accept everything the world presented to him, without any right to refuse. The simplest metaphor was being forced to watch a movie while you were tied to a chair.Remus was feeling frantic again. It seemed he was truly trapped with no way out."Is Limbo really like this?" He felt powerless over the current situation. In his current state, he couldn't affect the Mortal Realm or the Underworld and was simply stuck here. If this wasn't Limbo, then what was?It was like how when a person died, it was not necessarily a complete disappearance. It could also be understood as being separated from friends and family, no longer able to meet, forever existing in different realms. Wasn't it the same case right now?Remus slowly descended into the forest, coming to a stop without any
Remus was shocked, staring blankly at the scene.Under normal circumstances, after reliving his life once, he should have just faded away. That was how it usually was for ordinary people. So, why hadn't he disappeared, and why were the scenes starting to repeat?As expected, after Remus snapped out of it, he heard voices coming from the mountaintop. It was once again the scene of Tyson holding a ruler, disciplining a sobbing Remus."Why... Why is this happening?" Remus muttered to himself, growing more and more shocked. "Is this what the so-called Limbo looks like, or did something go wrong?"For a moment, he didn't know whether to feel happy or worried. Naturally, he was happy because he still existed, but he was also worried because the current situation felt too unfamiliar.Remus remained calm and continued to look ahead. The scene shifted to the front of the prison, then to Kylie calling off their engagement, and then to various moments shared with the other women from his pas
"No!" Remus roared, feeling a bit panicked.According to human processes, after reliving one's memories, the spirits would depart the body as a farewell to the Mortal Realm, and the physical body would begin to decay and turn to dust.If that was the case, wouldn't he fade away into nothingness after revisiting all his memories as a specter?"No, no!" Remus started shouting, trying to stop it, because this was the final act of his specter. Once this moment passed, he would completely vanish into nothingness, and he was doing everything he could to prevent that.Unfortunately, the situation in front of him wouldn't change just because he willed it to. The result would be the same as from the start, continuing to unfold bit by bit."Candace Nightingale!" Remus shouted once again. Seeing Candace nearly being squashed by the Pathic Energies, he couldn't help but wish he could lend a hand in it. If she had been killed then, he wouldn't be filled with such regret now.The scene was sti
When Remus saw this, he suddenly started laughing.This scene was from when he first arrived at the prison. He was indeed nervous and worried outside the gate. After all, it was his first time coming down from the mountains and entering the outside world, especially since Tyson said this was the most dangerous place in the world.Because of that, he was extremely cautious when going in, afraid of getting beaten up. It was also here that he parted ways with Tyson, and he hadn't seen him since then.Remus looked at Tyson, wanting to take a closer look at him, but the scene changed once again.It was three years later, when Kylie came to break off their engagement. Adorned in luxurious designer brands, she arrogantly said, "We belong to different worlds. Give me the marriage contract!"If it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, Remus would have definitely given her a rough time. Why bother putting up an act?The scene shifted again. This time, he was at the Bowen family's luxur
