Ana's words caused the main hall to become eerily quiet.Kylie, Miranda, Gabriela, and Husan widened their eyes in sheer astonishment.Remus also choked for a moment. He never expected Ana to say something like that.When he was in the Dragon Protector Clan, they continually attempted to kill him. Even now, they were in an endless conflict. But Ana approached him and offered to fulfill the engagement.That appeared ridiculous!Ana flushed and felt embarrassed. When Remus wanted to take her away back then, she declined it. It was quite humiliating for her to come to him and mention their engagement.However, she was the Walters' daughter. From birth, she could learn everything that ordinary people might never hear about in their lifetime, but it also meant she lost the freedom to make her own choices.After all, not everyone was like Rafael Cosby.Ana gritted her teeth and said, "I know you have no feelings and maybe even hate me, but this world is realistic. You can first liste
The four women also glared at Ana, becoming even more unfriendly. Back then, she disdained Remus, but now she proactively came to him. They disliked her arrogance.Ana's lips trembled slightly as she sighed. "Since you want to be clear, I'll be straightforward. The Dragon Protector Clan, as the oldest family in this world, doesn't want to lose our position."If we fight you, the Rose family will surely take advantage of the situation. It would be more harmful than beneficial to the Dragon Protector Clan. But if we join forces with you, we'll regain the strength to counter them. That's all."As soon as she finished speaking, Remus responded, "You may leave. I won't be with you!"He spoke harshly, having no favor or cordiality left for the Dragon Protector Clan anymore.Although he needed Ana to rescue his parents, he hadn't found the ninth fiancée yet. He hadn't yet visited the Dragon Protector Clan as well. So, he would never agree with Ana in such circumstances.He would be disg
Remus stared intently at Ana without saying anything.He couldn't figure it out. Even the four women present didn't know this secret. How did she know that?Those women also realized something was off and became anxious. In their minds, nothing in this world could leave Remus speechless.After a few seconds, Remus remained silent.Ana couldn't take it anymore because the tension in the atmosphere was unbearable.She said proactively, "So, you don't have any other options!"Remus Cosby, the Dragon Protector Clan's conditions are the utmost patience we can offer you. If you push your luck any further, you'll wind up hurting yourself."As an adult, you should understand the consequences!"After she stated that, the atmosphere in the main hall grew even more oppressive and suffocating."Are you threatening me?"Remus became extremely cold, sending shivers down her spine.Ana clenched her teeth and mustered the courage to look at Remus. She was well aware that if she backed down,
Ana desperately wanted to struggle, but she was completely powerless.Remus said coldly, "As you mentioned, I must be with you to save my mother. But it never specified that I had to marry you. So, I can get you first and kill you later!"After saying that, he carried her away."No!"Ana's expression changed dramatically. She never imagined he would do such a thing. He was Darsia's Thunderous God of War and the faith of 140 million citizens. How could he commit such a despicable act?It didn't suit his status.Ana felt more anxious as he walked further.She looked toward the four women in the main hall. As if grasping at the last hope, she shouted, "Why are you all just standing there? Help me! He's your man! Are you going to stand by and watch him do this?"Are you all still women? Won't you feel ashamed? Stop him now!"Kylie, Miranda, Gabriela, and Husan were all stunned at those words. Looking at the two figures moving farther away outside, they felt complicated.They shou
The night was serene with a few stars and a gentle breeze.Remus walked alone in the garden. Although it was the Cosby residence's garden, its size was on par with any park in Centurio. It was complete with flowing streams, artificial hills, and winding corridors. It had everything one could imagine.He felt like he was dreaming. He never thought he would rape a woman and felt guilty. But he had no other way. He couldn't ignore his parents' situation and risk their lives. They were counting on him to save them!"Where on earth is my last fiancée?"Remus decided to stop thinking about Ana. Since he had done it, it was pointless to think about it any longer. Instead, it was better to move forward."Master Tyson said that as long as I find nine fiancées, I can rescue my parents."Jean, Kylie, Seraphine, Glinda, Ana..."And also Gabriela, Miranda, and Wilda."It's easy to win over Gabriela and Miranda. But Wilda... that's difficult."Remus felt troubled. He couldn't help but recal
Seeing that, Alicia steeled herself and quickly charged toward Remus.This time, he didn't bother to dodge. The dagger struck his exposed spiritual energy."See? That's the difference between us. Don't waste your energy." Remus shook his head."Stop right there!"Alicia appeared utterly furious. "Believe it or not, I can throw the Cosbys into complete chaos! I can incite them to fight among themselves. I'm giving you a chance—stop right now, or I'll take action!"Remus abruptly came to a halt, showing signs of irritation. He wasn't concerned with what she was saying, but rather that she kept talking, which was quite annoying.He coldly turned around and asked, "Are you threatening me?"Seeing his reaction, Alicia didn't feel scared. Instead, her eyes lit up. She arrogantly declared, "That's right. I'm threatening you!"Remus released his spiritual energy and was ready to strike her. But just as he raised his hand, he sensed something unusual.He tentatively asked, "Did you do
Her voice was delicate and gentle, her tone even more enchanting. It sounded as if a wife was greeting her husband in the morning.But Remus felt a chill run down his spine as he heard that.He had long since come to his senses from last night's impulsiveness and no longer felt the same emotions or boldness he did. Now, he only felt uneasy."Darling, did you hear me? If you don't come out soon, I'll go in." Kylie's voice came once again.Remus felt a sense of dread as if a monster knocked on his door. At the same time, he felt that if he didn't leave soon, she might break in and devour him alive."I'm coming!" he responded briefly and quickly got dressed.As soon as he walked out, he saw Kylie standing outside. She was neatly dressed and even had some light makeup on. She blinked as she looked at him."Darling, you've worked hard."Remus got goosebumps and forced a smile. "Not at all. You got up so early. Won't you be tired? By the way, you're even more beautiful than before. Y
"Where is your mother?"Gabriela suddenly spoke up firmly, "You're strong, but one person's power is limited. Just tell me where she is. I'll lead the troops to rescue her!"You might not know yet. Darsia has developed weapons specifically for dealing with warriors and practitioners. No matter who is guarding your mother, we can use those weapons against them!"Even though the weapon tests were successful, she hadn't been through actual combat yet. It was a good opportunity to test them. Moreover, no matter how many practitioners or warriors there were, they had a limit in numbers.To reach a certain realm, it could take several decades or even a hundred years. Weapons, on the other hand, could be produced in large quantities.As long as she brought out weapons, she believed nobody would still dare to resist.Remus thought for a moment before pointing to the sky. "She's in Heaven!"Gabriela, Miranda, Husan, and Kylie were stunned. They couldn't understand what he meant.Remus f
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
