There was an old guy in a black robe standing outside the elevator. His face was filled with wrinkles, and there was no emotion in his eyes. He looked like a corpse. Behind the old man were four guys in black robes standing in a row. They were staring right at her with gloomy expressions. They looked like they had ascended from hell. These six people were sent over by the King of Parasite. "What's the matter?" Remus quickly asked after hearing Kylie's scream. Kylie heard Remus' voice, but she did not answer. Instead, she looked at the creepy men who looked out of place in the city and asked with a trembling voice, "Who are you guys?" "We are the Parasite Clan from the southwest!" The Great Elder of the Parasite Clan spoke. Kylie's face instantly became pale. She had heard that name in movies but never expected to see them in real life. However, she was a billionaire now, so money wasn't a problem for her. Nervous, she asked, "What do you guys want? Money? How much do you wan
Suddenly, a golden light appeared on Kylie's body, and it was dazzling. The golden light seemed to become a firm structure, shielding her from the right general guardian's force, and the backlash was strong. This was because of the protection rune that Remus had left for her. Remus learned that the rune he made for Jean back then saved her life but caused her to lose her memory. Therefore, Remus made sure the rune he made for Kylie was stronger and could return the harm to the attacker. However, it could only be used once. Feeling the scary force, the Great Elder wanted to block it, but it was too late. Meanwhile, the right general guardian and the others were too slow to react. With that, the Great Elder took three steps back while the right general guardian spurted a mouthful of dark blood. The huge force sent the four heavenly guardians flying, and their skin cracked. The six people were horrified by what had happened and looked at Kylie. She was only a weak lady, and they cou
Remus couldn't leave Kylie in Durwad feeling scared and alone. Hearing that, Kylie wiped away her tears and tried to stop him. "Don't come back. They just left, and I don't think they will be back anytime soon. So just stay there. Miranda is new to Centurio, so you should accompany her."Remus stayed silent upon hearing that. He knew that Miranda would be safe in Centurio. If he didn't return, Kylie might reencounter danger, so he had to go back to Durwad. Kylie said, "Remus, these people can take action anytime, but I think they're scared for now. You'll be back tomorrow anyway. It's only a day away. I can handle this myself!" Actually, Kylie didn't want Miranda to feel lonely. Last night, Miranda even asked Kylie about things in bed. If Remus returned right now, Miranda would be upset. After thinking about it, Remus said, "I'll call Captain Larry and send over some people to protect you." "Okay."…At the Parasite Clan, Amphron, the King of Parasite, was holding a wooden
Miranda looked around before she tiptoed and kissed Remus on the cheek. Then, she said, "This is my first mission, so you must support me. Wait for me to come back … Then, we will …" She couldn't finish the last part of her sentence and just walked away. Seeing her leave, Remus shook his head. If he knew this would happen, he wouldn't have troubled Captain Larry. He would have just returned to Durwad himself. However, he had already arranged everything to ensure Kylie's safety and would return tomorrow. So he shouted in Miranda's direction, "Hey, be careful. Call me if you run into any trouble!" Miranda blushed, wondering if Remus was concerned for her. On the second day, Remus came to the war department on time. All the soldiers had already gathered in front of the camp, and there were ten special forces teams. Every team looked fierce and scary, ready to conquer this competition. Remus then followed Max to the viewing stand. At this time, the commanders from different provi
Remus sounded calm, but everyone was shocked by his words. How could he say such a thing? Did he say that the war goddess could sit on his lap? That was outrageous!Even Max was dumbfounded. Although he knew Remus' personality, he never thought he would dare say that. Vince slammed the table before him to pieces and shouted, "Shameless bastard! Why don't you look at your reflection and see what kind of pathetic asshole you are? How dare you degrade the war goddess? Do you wish to die?"The people in the war department were known to have a fiery temper. Remus' words also angered everyone else. Last night, Remus was lucky that the special forces didn't catch him, but they never expected him to act so shamelessly. How could he be so presumptuous? The other eight commanders also stood up and surrounded Remus with murderous intent. The special forces who were far from the viewing stand were dumbfounded, unsure of what was happening over there.However, Remus stayed calm and did not mov
"Shameless bastard! I'll kill you today! There’s no way around it!" Vince was infuriated as he had never been ridiculed his whole life. He was so angry that his shirt tore, revealing his muscular stature.Then, he aimed his huge fist at Remus. Just as it was about to hit Remus, the bell sounded in the field. This bell was set to ring at a specific time. Hearing that, Vince retracted his fist and said with a wretched expression, "You're lucky." After that, he ran to the front and stood straight. The other people also retracted their gazes from Remus. Even though they wished they could kill him, they looked forward and stood upright. The war department always adhered to the military order. Once they received an order on the battlefield, they had to obey the order even if someone held a gun to them. Now that they heard the bell, they had to temporarily let go of all the grudges they had. Soon, the ten special forces teams ran to the front of the viewing stage in unison. Remus shrug
Immediately, ten of the special forces teams started running while nine of the teams were rushing toward the Durwad special forces. All of them had the same goal! As they watched, Wilmot, Vince, and the others laughed. They wanted to see how shameless the Durwad special forces would be after they were taken down first. Once the Durwd team was defeated, they would continue to fight Remus and see what he had to say. Their goal today was to make him lose his dignity!"This isn't fair!" Max quickly got up. His face was pale, and he looked at everyone rushing toward his soldiers. Other people might find it funny, but he was distressed for them as nine hundred people were running toward them. How could they fight? With a dark expression, he demanded, "I demand this competition to stop right now! This is an unfair fight! This is not fair at all!" However, everyone ignored him and laughed while they focused on the competition. Max shouted, "Hey! I'm talking to you guys! Are you guys b
Without surprise, they were all hit by the Durwad soldiers. The scene looked as if a hurricane had passed by. Everywhere the Durwad soldiers went, they would leave the other soldiers crying. No one was good enough to be considered their opponent. "H—How can this happen?" "Are they monsters? How can they be so strong?" "Fuck! We can't win against them! We really can't defeat these guys!" The special forces from other provinces were on the verge of breaking down. They really couldn't defeat the Durwad soldiers. Not only were they strong, but they had good body coordination, and their reflexes were scary. It was a totally different level of expertise. How could they compete with them? On the field, Rita was breaking down. She was still well and alive, as no one had tried to beat her. She took the initiative to fight the Durwad soldiers but had no chance against them. Her punch was just like a tickle, making her feel desperate. …On the viewing stage, Wilmot, Vince, and th
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
