"What ... ""Uh ... ""Ah ... "Everyone looked at the scene in front of them, their eyes so wide that they were about to pop out of their sockets. They were so astonished that they could only make incoherent sounds. Some of the timid people were crying out of terror.Skylar and the other two were almost scared out of their wits. Could there really be a curse? If they laid a finger on these women later, would they also meet a tragic end?Not to mention them, even Kylie and the others were dumbfounded. While others might not be aware, they knew that they didn't have any curses on them, but they didn't know how to explain what had just happened.Immediately after, a voice came from the back of the crowd. "Remus!"Everyone turned their heads towards the sound. At the back of the crowd, a figure was slowly walking up—it was Remus!He'd launched the attack. His original plan had been to go to Centurio to find Jean. Yet before he could leave, Max had told him that Jean had left somet
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Remus waved his hand and a piece of stone shot out from his fist, hitting right onto the center of Ludwig's forehead, shattering it into pieces instantly."I don't need to know the name of someone who's dead!"Everyone present felt a heavy blow to their heads as their vision turned dark, and they almost collapsed.After all, this was the external representative of the Steele family, and he came all the way here on behalf of Leonard. According to his title, he was equivalent to an imperial inspector. And yet, Remus dared to make a move against him? And even killed him?"Uh ..." Skylar was so scared to the point of almost passing out."You ..." Ben wet his pants from the shock.Remus remained expressionless. When he found out that Jean had left, his heart had turned cold, and he only wanted to go to Centurio to find her. He wanted to resolve the matter at hand as soon as possible. He slowly looked toward Skylar.Remus turned toward Skyla
In this world, those who were in power could do whatever they wished. If this matter were in the hands of a powerful man, they would simply brush it off like a speck of dust. On the contrary, it would be a huge pressure if the matter was given to a nobody. Obviously, Remus was a nobody in this situation."Remus, leave, please. This is your last chance." Kylie cried. It was pointless for him to ask these questions. Even if he felt it was unfair, there was nothing he could do.Miranda bit her lip before saying, "Society has always been cruel. You're deemed powerful if you're influential enough. If the Steeles or the Stuarts wanted to take action against you or us, no one would say a word. But if you dare touch them, you might not even know how you died. Run while you can, Remus."Skylar rolled his eyes and was afraid Remus wouldn't understand. So he scolded, "Are you guys dumb? Persuade Mr. Cosby to leave. Now!"The crowd looked at each other, and none wished to help Remus. Instead,
The people of Neptuna were stunned. No one had seen these two people before, and they seemed to be from Junewad."Hey, the person in the middle is Bailey Alder! She's the manager of the Treasure Studio in Sturwad. Why is she here?""That's the president of Vitalis Pharmaceuticals, Damon Duran. Why is he here?""There's also Mr. Lawson! Mr. Lawson, why are you here?"Some people recognized the people in the crowd. After all, they were neighboring cities, and some had business connections. However, the people who were called out ignored them. With the lead of the woman in red, they all stood behind Remus. Then, all of them bowed and shouted, "Mr. Cosby!"Everyone was shocked by the scene that unfolded before them. No one could understand what was going on. Elias, Brianne, Miranda, and Kylie were clueless about the situation too. They had never heard Remus mention knowing these people. As for Skylar, he was dumbfounded, thinking about where these people had come from. Only Scarlet
"Something that Jean had left?" Remus instantly stopped. There was a slight emotion on his indifferent face. He thought Max had lied to him. Turns out, Jean really did leave him something. Remus raised his hand. "Give it to me!" Ben shuddered and said, "Remus, I can give it to you, but you have to promise not to kill me. Only then will I give it to you. If you can't promise me, I would rather die." Remus frowned as he hated being threatened. But he couldn't make any mistake when it came to Jean. "Fine. If you give it to me, I won't kill you." Skylar's eyes lit up. He quickly turned to Ben. "Son, you must save me. Tell him to spare my life." This was his last chance at survival, and he had to grab it as tightly as possible. However, Remus said, "Only one of you can live." "Me!" Skylar shouted as if he had gone mad. "Give me this chance. I've raised you for so many years, and I'm your father. Give it to me, and let me live." Skylar still had a lot of money to spend and dozens
Once Remus said that, the people who were kneeling were stunned. They regretted kneeling down, thinking they should have just hid in the crowd. Remus wouldn't notice them anyway.Then, Remus said, "Those who didn't kneel, you can just kill them.""Yes." Willow nodded. All of a sudden, the people who had kneeled felt it was worth it. Those who were gloating amid the crowd fainted from the shock. When Kylie let go of Remus, he turned and looked at Elias and the others. Then, he cut the rope while saying, "You guys were inflicted because of me. I'm sorry for that. I'll make sure to compensate you all, but please wait until I return. Don't worry. It'll be quick!" After that, Remus ran down the mountain. Miranda looked at his descending figure and felt distressed. He had been through so many challenges, and it was all for Jean? If that were the case, she would feel so happy if Remus could treat her the same way. In the end, she couldn't hold back and shouted, "Where are you going?"
At the same time, what happened in Neptuna spread across Durwad, shocking everyone. After all, Skylar and Ludwig were bigshots, and they were actually killed by a nobody. Moreover, this matter involved the Steeles. Instantly, the whole situation became serious. "Remus Cosby is too impulsive. Isn't he scared? How could he just kill them?""He had Ms. Lotus to help him out. But now, no one is there to wipe his ass!""I heard Mr. Steele is furious. He's already arranging troops to take Remus down. Just wait. It'll be an interesting night. Mr. Steele won't let him go easily.""Shh! I heard Remus is coming to the province to wipe out the Steeles.""What?" The province was covered in a layer of dark clouds, and everyone was quietly observing what would happen next. At the same time, on a small path leading to a castle-like villa in the province, where the grass swayed with the wind amid the darkness, a figure appeared. It was walking fast. This person was none other than Remus Cosb
"Stop with the nonsense and get out of here!" Frank was really angry. Remus frowned and said, "If it wasn't because of Jean, you would be dead by now. Frank Gildon, don't think too highly of yourself. You're nothing to me."Then, he walked over and said, "If any of you dare to block my way again, I'll kill the two of you!"Frank was in disbelief. No one dared to speak to him with such an attitude. Even Jean had to respectfully call him Uncle Frank, but Remus dared to threaten him?"Remus Cosby!" Even Max was enraged and shouted, "Are you deaf? I'm doing this for your own good. Don't you know that Leonard had everything set up? You're sending yourself into a trap! Do you really think you can win against the Steeles?""Yes!" As Remus spoke, he had arrived in front of them. Then, he pushed them aside and walked through the middle.Max was speechless. "How presumptuous! I've never seen someone so stubborn!" Frank turned to look at Remus and said, "I won't stop you if you insist on
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
If they didn't surrender, the people of Darsia would face casualties in the tens of millions.Of course, the most important thing was that no matter how hard the Mortal Realm tried or resisted, it could not even land a finger on the Upper Realms. If they were to fight, the outcome wouldn't just be one-sided—they would lose by a landslide.None of them could bring themselves to say it, but they knew the responsibility for doing this unpleasant task fell on them.The sound of sobbing rang out in the conference room again.Kaiser glanced around at the women, fully aware that no one felt more aggrieved than they did. However, there was nothing he could do. Despite being the president, he was powerless.Still, he had to ask, "Do any of you disagree?"None of them responded. They had countless things to say, but they all boiled down to the fact that they were simply not strong enough. If there were even the slightest chance of victory, they would resist without hesitation.Unfortunate
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
