When Remus folded his last finger…“Pfft…” Max vomited blood without any warning. He was sitting on the sofa, but after he vomited, he fell to the floor and fainted.All of the people were shocked by the scene. Then, it was chaos. Even Frank and Jean were dumbfounded.“Commander Baxton!”“Uncle Max!”“Quick! Call an ambulance immediately!”In just a few seconds, everyone in the reception room was utterly roused. Max Baxton was the provincial war commander. If something happened to him, it would incite mutiny in the war department, and the consequences could be disastrous.“It’s useless. Before the ambulance arrives, he’ll be dead,” Remus calmly said.Everyone looked at Remus simultaneously and noticed that he recognized that Max had a health issue.“Are you a doctor?” someone asked.“Guess.”“Can you save Commander Baxton?” another person asked.“Guess.” “I’m ordering you to save Commander Baxton now!” The mayor of Neptuna was suddenly angry. This was his territory, and h
Frank, who had been silent, finally spoke. He was observing the situation to see if any changes would occur. However, it was unexpected that Remus was talented.The others remembered Remus commenting that Frank would rather die!Then, Frank slowly got up. "I'll leave with you two. Let's find another place to chat.""No need. I don't have time to chat," Remus directly refused. He wanted to chat with Jean privately. There was no time for him to consult patients. Plus, it was not like he treated anyone. Jean had a pleading look after hearing what Remus said. In the end, the three of them left together. Jean couldn't help but ask, "Remus, how did you know Uncle Max would…"It was miraculous, as he only took a look and noticed the problem. Furthermore, he could even estimate the exact time of death, which was unbelievable.Frank also listened. Over the years, he had met many talented doctors, but this was the first time he witnessed such a marvelous skill.Remus calmly laughed, "I
Max was instantly even more furious. The others in the room flew into a rage. Remus angered Max to the point that he vomited blood. Why should Max thank him? How could someone be so shameless and even say the commander was an idiot?Jean panicked and could no longer hold Max back. "Remus Cosby! Stop talking and run while you can!"However, Remus did not run, and instead said, "Your stomach is damaged, so when you're angry, you'll feel a tightness in your chest. You will also experience dizziness and vomit blood. Moreover, your intestines are also damaged, so you have digestion problems. Because you smoke, there's some problem with your lungs. Also, your heart—sometimes it beats too fast and occasionally stops. Is everything I said right?"Suddenly, Max stopped struggling and was astonished. Due to his status, not many people knew about his health conditions. How did Remus know all of that so well?Remus glanced at Dent and calmly said, "Since you're such a talented doctor and you'v
Jean laughed and sat up from the sofa. She looked serious and asked, “What’s happening? I think my illness is cured. I’m going to take a bath. Why don’t we…take it together? We can get clean while you treat my illness.”Remus could feel the blood in his body boiling, and something in him was about to lose control. Before he could answer, Jean stood up. “Your silence means rejection. I’m so sad. Fine, I’ll get clean myself then. Hey, you’re not allowed to peek, okay?”Then, she quickly went upstairs in her evening gown.Remus was left speechless. Only when she was gone did he remember about cancelling the marriage! At the same time, the news of Remus becoming Jean’s chosen business partner was spread across Neptuna. Everyone got the news and inquired about who Remus was.Ultimately, they all discovered that he had just finished his prison sentence! This discovery, however, disappointed everyone, and many secretly scolded Jean for being ignorant!Unfortunately, no one could chan
On the second day, Remus went downstairs after washing up. He saw Jean wearing an apron in the kitchen, and she had prepared a bountiful breakfast.When Jean heard him coming down, she quickly sat down. “You’re awake? Quick, have breakfast. Then, you’ll have the energy to cure me. I feel like I’m coming down with another fever.”Remus was speechless and secretly cursed. Master Tyson said he wasn’t allowed to lose his virginity without permission!Remus sat opposite her and said, “Let’s not eat yet. I have something to tell you!”The marriage cancellation couldn’t be delayed. He still had six fiancées to deal with. Then, he had to return to prison and wait for Master Tyson. In other words, even if Jean was right before him, he couldn’t do anything before meeting his master.In reply, Jean gave him a cute response. She was sitting appropriately, but her gaze was flirty, and she was constantly blinking at him. When Remus met her gaze, he suddenly didn’t know what to say. Considerin
"Shut up!" Jean cut her off angrily. "I have a much better understanding than you on how to choose a suitable candidate. I believe that Remus has potential and will become a force to be reckoned with. He will not disappoint me! I don't want to hear you degrading him from now on, understand?"The Imperial Villa was one of Adam's properties, and he was honorably given the title of Working Emperor. Jean knew Adam well, and he wouldn't have lent out his mansion to anyone if he wasn’t close to them. So, it showed that Remus had a special bond with Adam and must have learned how to manage a business!"Understood." Naomi stopped resisting and gave Remus the documents. "Mr. Remus, here are all the documents. Please check if there are any issues." Remus was on the verge of breaking down as he was clueless about business management. "Remus, have confidence in yourself." Jean looked at him sincerely. "I believe you'll succeed one day and make everyone look up to you, okay?"Meeting her gaz
All the employees at the Lotus Corp were startled, and their faces were pale. Naomi was excited when she heard the security guards yelling. She mocked, “Mr. Cosby, security is here. They come with ill intent, so please handle this matter appropriately!”It might be easy to beat up one guy, but she didn’t believe he could fight a group. If the security guards took him down, he probably wouldn’t have the face to continue as the Lotus’ business partner!“There’s no need to panic. I can handle it,” Remus replied indifferently and walked out of his office. Outside were a dozen ferocious guards, and the leader was furious. When he saw Remus, he glared at him and shouted, “You’re Remus Cosby? How are you going to compensate for beating up my man?!” The other security guards were agitated and followed.“Who do you think you are to beat up a security guard?”“I’ll smack you, you better believe it!”Typically, these guards wouldn’t have the guts to create such a commotion. They had to
All the guards were beaten to the ground and were shouting in pain. None of them could get up!Naomi was shocked, thinking that Remus might be a monster. Even the employees were dumbfounded and felt like Remus was a beast in human form. The leader of the security guards, who was kneeling, trembled in fear.“The stakes have been raised. All of you will kneel and apologize. If not, each person will lose a leg.” Remus clapped his hands and walked to the leader. “Let’s start with you. You must apologize with sincerity, got it?”Terrified, the leader was drenched in sweat. He quickly looked toward Naomi. She made them come up and create a commotion. Otherwise, they wouldn’t dare to do so, so she had to save them.Therefore, Naomi bit the bullet and said, “Mr. Cosby, only gangsters use violence to handle problems. You can’t use force. Once this matter is spread, how would others look at the Coxs? Why would they cooperate with us then? So, you must convince others with virtue instead!”I
Their voices converged, resounding through the heavens and seemingly piercing through time itself. It left an expression of shock on the faces of the immortals above, who were wreaking havoc.Unfortunately, they wouldn't show any sympathy because of it. In fact, it made them act even more ruthlessly. Their energy became more intense, extending outward and seeming as if it was ready to completely unleash into the air.The winds, floods, and earthquakes became even worse than before. Someone was lifted into the air by the wind. Some were drowning in the flood as waves surged into the city. White spots had appeared on certain people's skins as they froze to death.But even in such circumstances, not a single person fled or pleaded. Instead, all 1.4 billion citizens displayed an extraordinary level of determination and fighting spirit beyond comprehension. Even in the face of death, they could not be shaken in the slightest.Wayne was furious at this scene, feeling as though someone ha
Wayne snapped, "What did you say?"Kaiser suddenly lifted his head and said confidently, "You're wrong. The Upper Realms have been wrong from the very beginning! You've forgotten why Darsia was founded, and you've forgotten that Darsia got to where it is today because of the blood that was shed!"Your greatest mistake is underestimating us. Even as insignificant beings, we still have grand ambitions!""Remus is not just our belief, but he is also the Eternal Pillar in our hearts. In the past, he bravely stood up against the Upper Realms to fight for humanity's rights. Even today, we are determined to follow the path he paved!"Upper Realms, Darsia does not agree to your terms!"After he finished speaking, he and the ten women sat cross-legged in mid-air. Below, the 1.4 billion citizens simultaneously mirrored their actions on the ground with a determined look in their eyes, ready to face death bravely."You... You're asking for it!"Wayne was furious, not expecting things to tur
Suddenly, Wayne's smile vanished. "The Mortal Realm deserves no more chances! Ever since Remus decided to stand against the Upper Realms and you all started to give him your devotion, you don't get a second chance!"That treacherous dog dared to aspire to be a Monarch of Mortals and oppose the Upper Realms. Such arrogance! As his accomplices, you all deserve to be punished and shouldn't expect to retain any power."Starting today, all conditions set by the Upper Realms must be met. Otherwise, the Mortal Realm will be thrown into chaos! People will struggle to survive, famine will spread, and the sun and moon will lose their light! Just do as we tell you to!"Everyone was stunned. Then, the people below all shouted in unison, "You're being too shameless!"Their voices rose higher and higher, shaking the earth.Their respect for Kaiser was because he was the president, but their devotion to Remus was complete and unwavering. Insulting Remus was seen as an attack on their beliefs and
"You're shameless!" Ana and Eva snapped, both furious. At that moment, it seemed like they finally understood the purpose of the Dragon Protector Clan's existence. Being powerless to fight back felt incredibly frustrating and suffocating."He's going too far!" Grant also couldn't help but curse when he saw the scene.After all, Kaiser was the president and represented Darsia's 1.4 billion citizens. How could he possibly be slapped repeatedly? Wayne was straight-up an insignificant being who was behaving irrationally now that he had newfound power!Paul sighed, feeling in his heart that it was really unfair. But what else could the Mortal Realm do but endure the mistreatment?Kaiser felt a burning sensation on his face. The physical pain wasn't a big concern for him as he had prepared himself for the worst, even death. But it wasn't just him who was affected by the slap. This slap was a humiliation to all of Darsia's citizens all at once.However, Kaiser had no means of fighting ba
When Kaiser heard this, he involuntarily trembled, not out of fear but because he was infuriated. It was clear from Wayne's tone that there was a strong sense of disdain, even outright contempt!The ten women also looked angry. The 1.4 billion citizens were silently clenching their fists. The previous grievances hadn't been avenged, and now they were showing off their power again. Did Wayne think he could treat the Mortal Realm however he wanted?Though Kaiser was upset, he couldn't express it. As the president, any impulsive decision would have to be borne by all the citizens, so it was crucial to proceed with caution.He replied, "Mr. Morrow, you should know that forcing something doesn't yield good results. If you try to force the outcome that the Upper Realms desire, it may backfire. Instead, consider easing up a bit, and you might achieve a different, perhaps better, outcome."If they couldn't fight back, they could only try to reach a compromise.However, what no one expecte
"The emperor attacked from the outside, while Candace's attack came from within!"Remus paused once again. This time, he stayed silent for about 10 minutes before looking up at the sky with excitement and exclaiming, "I understand now!"The true sequence of events was like this: Candace did intend to kill me, and I was indeed on the verge of disappearing, but the Pathic Energies' protection prevented me from vanishing.""The truth is exactly what I initially thought. If I compare it to humans, my specter has been severed from my body but hasn't left it. It's more like my specter has been forcibly sealed within my body! That's it!"Although the conclusion reached was the same as initially, the evidence used to support it was completely different. It could be said that he had guessed correctly initially, but now it was confirmed as true!"If in the Mortal Realm, one can be revived if their specter merges with their body. So, right now, I should be able to wake up once I merge with m
All along, Remus had been too focused on himself in these scenes, thinking they were memories.But if that were the case, the moments like Tyson carrying him up the mountain or being disciplined shouldn't have appeared at all, since he was too young to remember them. This resulted in a disjointed feeling between the first two sections and the ones that followed.But when he removed himself from the equation and looked at everything from a third-person perspective, he was surprised by a fact.The scenes he was seeing were all the ones that had influenced his path. Or rather, they were all significant milestones in his life!If Tyson hadn't carried him up the mountain, he wouldn't have had the chance to grow up. He would have just been an ordinary person if Tyson hadn't taught him the Nine Mystical Spells.If he hadn't gone to the prison to hand in the marriage contracts, he would have lived freely. And he wouldn't have been able to get out of prison were it not for Kylie calling of
With a calm and composed demeanor, Kaiser said, "Before I agree to your terms, I represent Darsia in setting forth three conditions. If..."Wayne interrupted immediately, "Do you or Darsia have the authority to negotiate with us? I'm giving you only two choices—agree or disagree!"…At the same time, Remus was still in the forest, or to be more precise, the scene he could see with his eyes was still of the forest. To put it even more precisely, it was the same view he had seen before, repeating over and over again."I can't change it. There's nothing I can do. I'm really stuck here. Whether this place is the so-called Limbo or not, to me, it truly is Limbo."Remus kept repeating the words over and over in a monotone, completely devoid of emotion. He had lost count of how many times it'd been repeated.Tyson's voice rang out again. "You're a child with a tough life as you lost your parents right after you were born. But at the same time, you're also a lucky child."Your father st
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
