Chapter 2580
Author: Oldwell
At the same time, Remus sat on the courthouse foundation in the backyard, showing no signs of nervousness. His eyes were fixed on Candace's records in his hands.

"Candace Nightingale—born into a wealthy family in Darsia's northwestern region. She was the middle child, with one brother and one sister.

"Despite her family's affluence, she did not receive much attention from her parents due to their favoritism toward males. And, since her parents wanted a son, she was sent to live with a rural farming family from a young age."

Remus understood that children being placed in foster care wasn't an uncommon situation, even if he hadn't personally experienced it. In Darsia, there were many similar cases.

But usually, when someone needed to be taken care of temporarily, they were sent to stay with relatives. Why would they send Candace to a farmer instead? Could her parents not have any relatives?

Remus didn't think too much about this and continued reading.

"Initially, the farming family

    Candace wasn't just a genius—she was beyond human.Over the years, Remus had never met anyone whose talent came even close to matching his own. Yet, when faced with Candace's abilities, he felt a sense of inadequacy.They seemed about equal when it came to their martial arts talent, but Remus had been training under Tyson from a young age, giving him a foundation. The skills and know-how developed during those early years stayed with him for life.What about Candace? She didn't start until she was almost 16, which was considered quite late to begin martial arts training, and no one would want to train her. Yet, she managed to establish herself as a Grandmaster at 16. She was a freak!As for their cultivation, Remus was even worse in comparison. The fact that he had gotten to where he was today involved a bit of cheating.First, he had a golden elixir pill given by Melody, who was a Golden Immortal. Additionally, he had been absorbing others' spiritual energy through the "Swipes of

    Hearing this, the ten kings all trembled, their faces filled with deep disbelief. They couldn’t help but glance at each other, wondering if they had heard Remus right.After all, how could a mere thief remain unaffected when faced with the formidable Ten Kings of the Underworld and even have the audacity to ask them to wait a moment?But right after they confirmed they hadn't misheard, they immediately flew into a rage.Bryce was the first to speak. "How dare you? You're courting death!"As soon as he spoke, he immediately attacked.What Remus said was unacceptable, especially when he was nothing in Bryce's eyes. If it weren't for Bryce acknowledging Remus' strength, he wouldn't have to dirty his hands at all! Furthermore, who in the Underworld would dare to oppose the ten kings?Suddenly, a sudden strong wind arose out of nowhere, and a surge of energy charged toward Remus. It was so intense that even the grim reapers would be laid to waste in an instant if they were here.But

    However, when this attack, which had used all of Bryce's energy, landed on Remus' barrier, it once again dissipated. Meanwhile, the shield, glowing with a soft radiance, remained completely undisturbed, not even growing dim for a moment.That left Bryce stunned again, and even the anger vanished from his expression.If the first time was because he was careless, how would he explain Remus being unscathed after this full-force strike? Furthermore, Remus even refused to engage with him. It was humiliating.The other kings also felt awkward, but it quickly turned into shock. If Bryce, who was considered one of the stronger ones among them, couldn't break through Remus' defenses, did that mean they wouldn't be able to, either?"We'll do it!" William gritted out and looked at Andrew, who nodded and quickly released his energy.Without saying anything, the two acted at once, combining their powerful energies and striking together. The impact was even louder than before, yet when observe

    "This thief is very skilled. Let's work together!""Don't give him a chance to catch his breath. Attack now!""He seems calm and untroubled on the surface, but in reality, he's at the end of his strength. Let's do it together!"The ten kings were extremely furious. In the countless ages of the Underworld, it was the first time they had encountered such a powerful specter. Apart from Roman and the five ghost kings, they had never encountered such a formidable opponent.The most crucial thing was that although Remus had been found, the kings could do nothing about it. It would be really embarrassing if word got out!They all acted at the same time. Their energy converged with immense force, resembling a tidal wave. It struck Remus' barrier as if it were solid and palpable.A deafeningly loud noise rang out. The energy stirred up dust, destabilizing the entire Reincarnation Office and blowing away specters heading toward the Bridge of Shadows.The Memory Matron stopped what she was

    The kings hovered far above the Reincarnation Office.The tens of thousands of specters in front of the building stepped back collectively in fear.Though they didn't know exactly what was happening, they understood that something significant must have occurred to cause the kings to be so enraged. Their energies were so great that these specters would be annihilated if they came into contact with them.As their energies became increasingly intense, the specters knelt one after another, too afraid to raise their heads, trembling with fear. Pedro's legs also gave way beneath him, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to look anymore, his face full of despair."Attack!" Andrew shouted. He gathered all the kings' energies and swiftly unleashed them toward Remus.…Meanwhile, at Roman's residence, a nether sentinel hurried in. "I'm here to report!""How is it?""What happened?"Two ghost kings couldn't help but ask, not because they lacked restraint, but because the matter was so

    The ghost kings were all immediately stunned, feeling like they were in a dream.That night, Remus single-handedly faced hundreds of immortals from the Upper Realms. During the battle, he made a grand vow and advanced to the Half-Step Monarch of Mortals Stage.He then fiercely fought against Kurt, destroyed his spiritual essence, and annihilated his physical form, ultimately slaying Kurt.In the end, three Immortal Emperors descended to the Mortal Realm, forcing Remus to self-destruct, vanishing into nothingness.This was something that everyone in the Three Realms knew about. When the ghost kings heard the news, they were also shocked for quite a while, feeling a mix of fear and regret.So, how could Remus be here? It was impossible!Remus frowned, sensing from their expressions that something was off. Could it be that they'd seen through his disguise and recognized who he was?But thinking about it, it made sense. They were the ghost kings, being at the Immortal Emperor Stage,

    If the citizens could see what was happening, they might be put at ease somewhat, even if they couldn't hear their conversation.Following that, Roman glanced at Remus again, showing a hint of surprise, before looking away.In a serious tone, he asked, "Did you recognize who he is?"The five ghost kings finally started expressing their shock."Yeah. How… How can he be here?""He should have completely disappeared after that night. Why is he here?""This is a hot potato. How did he get into the Underworld?""This is just unbelievable!"Roman shook his head slowly and said, "I don't know why he's here, either. Of course, now is not the time to discuss that. The focus is on figuring out how to deal with this situation."The situation was too significant for him to make a decision on his own, and he still needed to consult with the others.Dawson immediately said, "This individual is of great significance. Currently, the Upper Realms harbor immense hatred toward him. If the news

    "Three!" Remus started counting down. As he exerted force with his hand, the ten kings all showed expressions of pain, but they endured it silently without making a sound.The five ghost kings simultaneously turned around. Seeing him again brought a lot of inner turmoil, leaving them unsure of what to do.The current conclusion was that Francis had been secretly protecting him. If they captured him, how should they explain this?In a way, capturing him was akin to opposing Francis. Although the Underworld had its own emperor and kings, their overall strength was not as formidable as that of the Upper Realms.If Francis decided to take action, it might be difficult to withstand.And if they secretly handed Remus over to Francis, it might seem like they were helping him cover this up, but the real issue was how Francis would perceive it.Remus had killed Kurt, causing outrage in the Upper Realms. Protecting him like this would be a huge secret. What if Francis wanted to silence the

    Both Roman and Francis remained silent, acting as if the other didn't exist.Neither of them knew how much time had passed, but eventually, they both looked at each other simultaneously. Francis' gaze was calm. On the other hand, Roman's gaze initially held a hint of anger but then shifted to a sense of calmness.The reason why the two were looking at each other was straightforward. Roman was still suspicious of Francis, and Francis knew that.After about half an hour, Roman finally couldn't hold back and said, "I want to hear the truth!"Francis retorted, "Is it really necessary?""It's absolutely necessary. The survival of Darsia's three realms is at stake, and I must get to the bottom of this.""All you need to know is that I've returned to defend Darsia against external threats, and I won't be taking any action against you in the short term."Roman chuckled. "Even if you attacked me, what difference does it make? At worst, I face death, but this is an era of great upheaval w

    In the end, this issue was still raised.Kaiser's lips twitched slightly. He had been wondering the same thing but didn't have the chance to ask.Discomfort also appeared on the ghost kings' faces. They had naturally thought about the matter, too, but due to their fear of Francis, they didn't know how to bring it up. Moreover, considering Francis' demeanor, it seemed fine not to ask.But now that Roman had voiced that question, all they could do was wait for Francis' response.Francis asked casually, "Why do YOU think Amez helped me and let me return?"Roman remained unfazed. "I'm not sure. That's why I need you to answer!"Francis looked at him intently and replied, "Alright, I suppose it's not just you who wants to know. The others are probably curious, too."In that case, I'll tell you. The reason I gave Amez is straightforward—I wanted to return for revenge. Amez believed that my revenge against you all would be highly effective, which was why he decided to help me recover."

    Based on the analysis, this was indeed the case. Remus had been gone for so long, and the fact that Tyson, as his mentor, hadn't shown up yet was quite unusual. So, what was he planning?Just as everyone was speculating, Francis suddenly spoke up. "Amez is coming with Amelicon's deities."Everyone suddenly turned to look at him, their eyes widening uncontrollably. Did he just say Amez was about to arrive?Even though they already knew they would be coming, hearing it directly from Francis was still quite shocking.Francis ignored their expressions and continued, "So, no matter what the Monarch's mentor is plotting, it no longer matters. The most important thing right now is figuring out how to get through the present situation."Everyone else's expression became serious. Francis' words made sense.Bringing up Tyson was merely a distraction from their argument about the Three Realms' ruler. While it was important to investigate what Tyson was planning, it was less significant comp

    "It can only be me!" Francis immediately added.As soon as these words were spoken, everyone instinctively looked at Roman. Since none of them were eligible to compete, Francis' comments were directed solely at him. How would he respond?Roman's expression changed, and he was unsure of how to respond. If he acknowledged Francis, wouldn't that mean admitting defeat, rendering all his previous efforts futile? Additionally, it was embarrassing.But if he refused to acknowledge Francis, his current capabilities just didn't allow it. There was no way for him to win against Francis at the moment. What should he do?After a moment of reflection, he replied, "With external threats looming, it's too early to consider this issue. We don't even know if we can withstand the current challenge. If we manage to get through it, there's still time to think about that later."He could only delay the matter now.Francis said calmly, "It's precisely because we are facing external threats that there

    Finally, Roman crashed against the giant blade, and a sudden loud boom rang out.Then, something completely unexpected happened—the massive blade suddenly shattered like glass. Countless fragments scattered through the air like shooting stars, flying a short distance away before disappearing completely.As for Roman, he remained in the same spot where the massive blade used to be, completely unharmed.Roman burst into an exaggerated and unprecedented laugh, echoing continuously through the space."Why did this happen?""Could it be that the emperor has had a secret plan all along?""But the emperor wasn't protected by any energy. He shouldn't have been able to shatter the giant blade.""Why..."The four ghost kings were utterly shocked and couldn't believe their eyes. They knew very well just how terrifying the blade was.Perhaps in their prime, they might have been able to withstand it, but in their current state, they couldn't even be sure they could dodge it. Yet, Roman did

    Even at this point, Roman still couldn't believe Francis would truly act against him.His reasoning was still the same—he didn't believe Francis would just stand by and watch as Darsia was destroyed and its people perish. He didn't believe Francis would simply watch this land be devastated and taken over by outsiders!"Of course!" Francis responded succinctly, and as soon as these words were spoken, the blade started dropping down on Roman.The ghost kings' expressions drastically changed, filled with terror in an instant, forgetting to even fight back.On the other hand, Roman knew he had to defend himself but continued to persevere, not believing that Francis would go to such extremes.But at that moment, Kaiser shouted from below, "Wait!"Kaiser had witnessed the entire scene and was already completely stunned by the suddenness of everything. He was momentarily in a daze, but when he saw the giant blade descending, he realized that if he didn't speak up now, it would be too la

    Hearing these straightforward words, Roman, the four ghost kings, and Kaiser were all stunned. They couldn't help but widen their eyes in shock. Why would Amez help him recover? The implications behind this fact were hugely problematic."Why… Why did he help you recover?" Roman still asked.The ghost kings were trembling more and more noticeably. Kaiser also began to shake uncontrollably because he already had a bad feeling about the situation.Francis openly stated, "Because I promised to be his inside contact for attacking Darsia, making it easier for him to take over this land. Do you think there's any other reason he would help me?"Francis burst into laughter, one that was openly and extremely mocking, deeply disdainful.The four ghost kings stepped back simultaneously upon hearing these words, driven by a mix of fear, but also because it was an uncontrollable reaction.To be honest, just facing Francis alone was already beyond their capabilities. Even more daunting was the

    Roman and the four ghost kings were in the process of recharging their energy in the sky. Below them, Candace continued spacing out.Meanwhile, in the Mortal Realm, Kaiser and Remus' partners were secretly searching for Tyson while simultaneously managing production.As days went by, the general public remained unaffected because they were unaware of the impending crisis. Instead, they were excited about the expansion of the country's territory and the stability in society.A week had gone by. Although there hadn't been any news from abroad, and everything seemed calm, Roman and Kaiser knew that this was simply the calm before the storm.On the eighth day, something was finally happening outside of Darsia.Roman suddenly opened his eyes, and the four ghost kings did the same. They could sense a powerful energy coming from outside the domain, rushing toward them and about to reach the lower border, which forced them to be on high alert.Even Candace showed up voluntarily, looking

    When Kaiser heard this, he was completely stunned, looking at Candace in astonishment. It felt like a glimmer of hope had formed in his heart.Indeed, Remus had a mentor who provided him with the marriage contracts. In theory, Tyson arranged everything for Remus. But why had he never appeared since Remus' release from prison? It didn't make sense!Could he have died? Was it possible for someone like him? That didn't make sense, either! So Tyson was definitely somewhere out there. Could he be the key to saving Darsia?Noticing Kaiser was taking a long time to respond, Candace's expression turned serious. "You have to find this person, no questions asked! This is an order!"Her tone was very serious, as if she would immediately attack if Kaiser dared say no.Kaiser glanced at her but didn't pay much attention to her tone. Although he hadn't interacted with her before, he was aware she was a demon and couldn't be judged with normal human logic. Besides, with Darsia's current situatio
