"Sera, you're the best," Remus said with a doting look in his eyes. "I need to clarify—I really didn't bring a woman back. Eva has always been with the Cosbys, and you know her."As for Ana, nothing is going on between us at all. It's purely a mutualistic relationship."Seraphine held onto him tightly and nodded firmly, saying, "I believe you, Remus. Let's go back!"After the two left, Eva said in the forest, "Ana, let's go back, too… Huh? What's with that look?"Eva was quite surprised when she noticed Ana's face alternating between pale and flushed.Ana stared intently at Remus' departing figure. Remus would have been shot through the heart a thousand times over if looks could kill.His words were still agreeable when he was in pain, but what did he just say to Seraphine? A mutualistic relationship?It was true that she wanted him to help her get revenge, so she was using him. But did he remember what he had done to Ana before? How could he call that using her? What did he tak
In Centuria, there was a tradition to eat gnocchi when a family member returned home.So, ten of the most powerful people in the world made gnocchi together that night.The atmosphere was generally pleasant, but every now and then, they would ask what exactly Remus had said to make Kylie's mood suddenly change. After all, it had dampened the mood a bit just now.Remus naturally kept it to himself, while Kylie only silently smiled.That night, piping hot gnocchi was served. This time, everyone was wise to Remus' suggestions of drinking, so they stayed put and looked at him as if he were a fool.They obviously couldn't drink. The last time they got completely drunk, they almost lost Remus forever. Today was like a reunion after a brief separation, so everything needed to be perfect.So, Remus could only drink by himself.At first, he was absorbed in the delightful scent emanating from the women. But soon, he realized that the atmosphere was becoming tense as they started to fight
Their world was just too crazy!When Ana was still trying to process her shock, the others fell silent because they couldn't reach a consensus. They didn't want to speak carelessly since saying the wrong thing might end up benefiting someone else.At that moment, Eva suddenly asked, "Hey, where's Kylie?"They finally looked over at the same time and were surprised to find that, at some point, Kylie's seat had become empty."I see!" Gabriela gritted her teeth and said. "No wonder Kylie could forgive him so easily. Remus must have promised to do it with her first, and now they're on a secret date!"Upon hearing this, all the women stood up simultaneously.Jean cursed, "What a bitch!""Let's go and break up the lovebirds!" Husan said fiercely."Even if they're already doing it, we have to pull them apart!" Miranda stated decisively.With that, the women quickly went out.Eva eagerly followed along, but Ana grabbed her. Surprised, she asked, "What's wrong?"Ana asked in a fluste
Remus and Kylie were still going at it inside!Ana stood outside the door, mesmerized and gazing blankly, completely lost to her surroundings. Her emotions swayed along with the noise from inside.One couldn't really blame her for this. After all, she hadn't experienced something like this before.Her first time was from Remus forcing himself on her at the Cosbys. She was consumed with anger and resentment, with no room for any other feelings. Even if there were, it was all overshadowed by humiliation.Her second time was on the island, where, in order to get Remus to help her take control of the Dragon Protector Clan, she pretended to be Eva and didn't find it enjoyable, either.She still couldn't understand why something like this could get people like Gabriela to flock to Remus. Also, listening to Kylie's voice, it seemed like she really was enjoying it.After a long while, the room finally returned to calm, and Ana's emotions gradually settled. She turned around to look at th
"Has no one left a light on for me? That's impossible!"Remus couldn't believe it. He had managed to return, and they were still fighting over him at the dinner table. Why had things suddenly become so peaceful? It didn't make sense.Even though he spent the first half of the night with Kylie, they shouldn't have given up hope for the second half of the night!Remus quickly went down, checked each one, and finally came to terms with the fact that they were really asleep.At this point, Remus felt a bit disappointed but mostly heartbroken. The reason they were able to fall asleep so quickly was because of the exhaustion from worrying about him and Darsia.Now that he was back, they could finally sleep peacefully.Remus didn't go in to disturb anyone in case he woke them up. He walked slowly toward the room where he used to stay the most.Meanwhile, in one of the rooms, Ana tossed and turned in her bed, unable to sleep. She still found what happened during dinner unbelievable.Of
The next day, the family sat together at the dining table, enjoying breakfast in a harmonious atmoshpere.Of course, the so-called harmonious atmosphere was only enjoyed by Kylie. Everyone else had grim expressions and occasionally threw out a few nasty remarks at Remus and Kylie.Kylie accepted anything coming her way and didn't care at all. She held her head high, like she had achieved victory. Whenever anyone mocked her, she looked back at them with a gaze that said she was the winner, leaving them speechless.This made it tough for Remus. Despite being the fearsome Thunderous God of War, who made the whole world tremble and didn't dare fight back, he had to be humble here."Come with me after you're done eating!" Jean couldn't wait any longer and didn't bother to keep pretending, so she gave Remus a direct order."Why should he go with you?""You'll be coming with ME after you're done eating!""He's mine today. If anyone dares to take him from me, I'll show no mercy!"Miran
Remus was in disbelief. This was practically a confession! With their relationship being so disgraceful, how could Ana just let everyone find out like that?As expected, upon hearing this, the moods of the other women present suddenly shifted, and the atmosphere in the main hall turned fiercely menacing."I have something to take care of, so I'll head out first."Remus quickly put down his utensils and left hurriedly using his fighting spirit. If he didn't leave right then, he might die there!Just as he got to the courtyard, Alicia walked in and paused when she saw the look on Remus' face. "Mr. Cosby, what…""We'll talk about it later!" Remus prepared to leap into the air to escape.Alicia quickly shouted, "Mr. Cosby, I just got a call from the president. He wants you to go see him."What good timing."I'll go right away!" Remus swiftly left.Inside the main hall, all the women, unable to catch Remus, glared at Ana. Although they had long suspected something ambiguous between
Remus had to admit that the reasons given by Kaiser were indeed sufficient. Even without considering everything, just the last point alone was enough to support his argument.With Remus' current power, he was invincible in the Mortal Realm. He was confident he could defeat even an ordinary Immortal from the Upper Realms.But if one carried the will of Darsia's 140 million citizens, they could confidently ensure victory against the Upper Realm's ordinary Immortals. Even when facing the so-called Golden Immortals, he would dare to confront them head-on.But…Remus finally shook his head and said, "I never thought about becoming the president, nor do I have any intention of managing Darsia. It's better if you continue…"Kaiser still wanted to speak, but Remus once again raised his hand to interrupt him. "I can address the issues you have one by one."First, regarding boosting Darsia's confidence, this has nothing to do with whether or not I'm the president. If my mere presence could
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
