In the vast expanses of the Shenington Primitive Forest, few dared to venture. Perhaps only the fully equipped Darsia War Department would consider it, as even the formidable Dragon Team hesitated to tread near its shadows.After pondering momentarily, Gabriela sighed and said, "It's unnecessary. Let it be."Despite Tristan's reluctance to abandon the matter, he pressed, "Goddess of war, while little is written of Shenington within Darsia's archives, it holds a place in our myths. We Darsia warriors fear neither bloodshed nor sacrifice. Moreover, Valerie colluded with the enemy and nearly killed you. This enmity...""I understand!" Gabriela interrupted.When she first learned of Valerie's betrayal, aligning with the hated Sakurasom, her fury knew no bounds. A Darsia warrior's loyalty should be to their homeland, not to an enemy so despised.But now, she had calmed down a lot. On one hand, the Spark family had already paid a heavy price. After Valerie's incident, her grandfather, w
Remus said again, "I hope that one day, you can take off your armor and wear bridal attire...""Buzz!"The words touched Gabriela's most tender thoughts as tears instantly appeared in her eyes.Looking at Remus with a mix of emotions, she accused, "Scumbag!"Remus was left speechless.He didn't want her to use those words as it gave him a headache.Before he could think more, Gabriela smiled through tears, "Rest assured, using this word now isn't an insult to you, but it means you understand women very well."She paused shyly and whispered, "Remus, I feel like I feel as if I'm already in bridal attire, like... I want to be yours."The painting had indeed shaken her deeply, awakening her most hidden desires.Remus felt a rush of excitement at her words. He intensified his gaze as he looked at her.He glanced outside and realized it was still daytime.Gabriela bit her lip and said softly, "It's broad daylight..."As soon as she said these words, she froze.She hadn't expecte
Remus subconsciously looked over.Remus subconsciously looked over. He noticed a mark on his wrist, a snowflake pattern left by Wilda. He had ignored it before the battle but now recognized its significance.Gabriela sniffed again, and her body suddenly tensed. She asked, "This scent, it's distinctly feminine. Did a woman leave this?" She questioned.She stood abruptly, pushing Remus away in anger. "Remus, you swore you weren't seeking out women. And now you have a woman's tattoo?"Remus was totally unprepared. He was pushed off the bed by her and hastily said, "Gabriela, let me explain, this is...""Shut up!""Shut up!" Gabriela leaped from the bed, her anger palpable. "The evidence is right before us! Do you dare to argue? You scumbag! I finally understand what it means to rather believe in ghosts than trust a man's broken mouth!"After saying that, she quickly walked out.Feeling extremely wronged, Remus was just one step away from success. He never expected there would be a
"If you don't come back, don't bother returning!" the four women shouted in frustration. They watched Remus's figure disappear into the distance, powerless to stop him."When he comes back, I'll personally castrate him!" Jean clenched her fists. He had been out for just a few days and already got a tattoo for another woman, though he hadn't done the same for her."This scumbag... Argh..." Kylie was also angry.Miranda's face was stone cold. "I'm returning to work," she declared, tempted to track down the other woman."Weren't you all expecting something like this?" a voice suddenly interrupted.Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.Swish!They turned to see Selina standing behind them.Selina continued calmly, "I want to say that very clever women aren't always happy. Since you were mentally prepared for what he did, why did you have to say it out loud?"Gabriela responded with frustration, "If he can do it, why can't we speak about it?""There's no need to. Getting angr
Remus was struck by the scene before him. He was unable to believe it.Earlier today, Goetz had appeared healthy in the crowd. He wondered how things had changed so drastically in just a few hours."Re… Remus?"Senior Baker also had tears streaming down his face. As he wiped his eyes with his hand, he caught sight of Remus and was equally startled.The crowd turned pale with fear when Senior Baker spoke Remus's name and saw him standing there. They stopped crying.Gemma turned her head. Seeing Remus, she clenched her fists and bit her lip until it bled as her gaze turned intense.Remus ignored her and walked slowly towards Goetz's bed."Remus!"Senior Baker stepped forward two paces, struggling to say, "Goetz has passed. Please, for my sake, let go of any grudges with the Malin family."As he spoke, the room's atmosphere turned eerily tense.Remus seemed distracted.Remus listened absently. He wasn't sure what Senior Baker meant."No need to consider!" Gemma finally spoke w
Remus spoke slowly, "Everyone, please leave the room."Senior Baker considered for a moment, then gestured for the Malin family to exit. He followed them, confident in Remus's respect for the deceased.Everyone left.Only two people remained in the room.Remus spoke slowly, "It was you who wanted to help me at Black Lake. It was you who came to rescue me when the Cosby family deputy head went to capture me at the Gracefield family. When I went to the Lotus family to pick up Jean, you were there to support me. I... I've never blamed you for anything!""How could I let you be upset because of me?""How could I let you be troubled on my account?"He finished speaking, bit his finger to draw blood, and dripped it onto Goetz's forehead. Then he sat by the bed and closed his eyes.Soon, When he reopened his eyes, he found himself in the underworld. It was a place unchanged for millennia, surrounded by darkness, chilling winds, and long lines of souls.The underworld had been like th
Soon, people started arriving at the Malin family home. None were prominent figures in Darsia or had made significant contributions."Senior Baker, what's going on?""Why did you call us here so urgently? What's the matter?""Why come to the Malin family instead of going to the Baker family?"People asked one after another.The Malin family had not informed these guests of the recent changes. The guests were surprised to be summoned here instead of the Baker family residence.Seeing these people, Senior Baker said solemnly, "Goetz... has passed away!"Everyone trembled at the news. They all referred to Goetz with respect due to his seniority."How... Did he pass away so suddenly?""Goetz founded the Dragon Team. For Darsia's sake, we will establish a mourning committee and ensure his departure is honored," they declared one by one. "We will definitely ensure that Goetz's departure is grand!"After expressing their commitment, they turned to the Malin family members to discuss
The Malin family members remained silent. Their eyes were filled with hope.Senior Baker nodded and addressed Marten, "The current issue is not about how to handle Goetz's affairs but about Remus arriving and currently in the room."Marten trembled visibly at this news. His face flushed, then paled. He had thought Miranda hadn't returned to the Dragon Group. He assumed Remus would be with her at the Cosby family, enjoying their time together. He hadn't expected Remus to arrive so soon.Senior Baker continued without giving him much time to think, "Leader Long, you are a rising star and the inheritor of Goetz's legacy. You must protect the Malin family!"Everyone looked at Marten simultaneously.Feeling the weight of their gazes, Marten sighed. "I can try to protect them. But consider this. If Remus insists on taking action, my status and abilities might not be enough to stop him."Upon hearing this, everyone fell into silence.As the leader of the Darsia Dragon Group, the helm o
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
Remus stared straight ahead for a moment, then began frantically looking around. All he saw was a dense forest surrounding him. There was no sign of Tyson anywhere.What terrified him even more was that when he looked down right after that, he discovered he had no body or spectral form.Remus quickly raised his hand, wanting to touch his arm, attempting to see if he was simply concealed. However, he unexpectedly couldn't feel his arm! It was as if he only had a pair of eyes to observe the world, and no one else could even see these eyes."How did this happen? What is this place?" Remus was completely panicked.Why did he see a scene from over 20 years ago? Did he travel back in time? Or was this scene simply playing itself back to him? Where exactly was he?The sound of a slap interrupted his train of thought.Remus sharply turned to look, and to his surprise, he could see the top of the mountain along the path.At the summit was a small thatched house, and in front of it sat a
Unfortunately, the problems kept coming one after another.Grant said, "That's a good idea, but how can Remus return to the Mortal Realm or even reach the Upper Realms? He's currently a specter and isn't able to go there!"The other four ghost kings froze. The favorable outcome made them overlook the necessary process. Remus couldn't reach the Upper Realms, which meant the fight between him and Francis couldn't happen.They all turned to look at Roman.Roman frowned deeply. There was actually a way to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm. Remus would have been able to think of it too, but he just couldn't see what was right under his nose.There was a term called "Soul Return". Remus could find a recently deceased body and enter it, allowing him to return to the Mortal Realm.But Roman's statement about not being able to help Remus return to the Mortal Realm wasn't a lie, because no resurrected body could ever match the strength of Remus' original form.Even if his specter poss
