All the color drained from Rita's face when she saw Remus' smile. Right now, there wasn't any disdain in her eyes, but only fear. In the past, she hadn't known his true powers, so she'd dared to challenge him. If she took up the challenge now, she would be deemed as overreaching, and people would laugh at her. "I—I can't defeat you. I was foolish not to recognize a true master like you in the past. I'm sorry!" Rita lowered her head and bit her lip. No one deemed her timid after she admitted defeat. Although soldiers required courage to face death, they wouldn't take the initiative to send themselves to the jaws of death. That would make them fools. Then, the special forces from Durwad rushed over excitedly and shouted below the stage."Mr. Cosby! Commander Baxton! We won!""We're in first place! "Walter just beat up 35 people! He's this year's champion!" Remus was calm. "Not bad. You guys are worse than I expected. Keep it up!" Wilmot and the others were shocked by wha
"Well …" Max suddenly panicked. He hadn't felt bad about deceiving Remus in the past, but now that they had won first place, he felt guilty about lying. Moreover, he still hadn't thanked Remus yet."Did something happen?" Remus' face darkened. According to the letter his master had given him, his mother's situation was serious. Therefore, Remus had to get all nine of them. Max shook his head and smiled, saying, "No, she's fine. How could the goddess of war be in danger? Mr. Cosby, since the competition is over. Why don't we rest at the side?" Remus could see the hidden meaning in Max's words, but there were too many people there. So he nodded. "Okay!" All the special forces soldiers stared at him as he left. …Max lit up a cigarette in the resting area and took two drags before speaking. "Honestly, I couldn't say anything according to the rules. But you're considered part of the war department now, so I don't think it would make any difference. You're right. Something is wron
Lugio Island was a 7000-acre island. Until half a year ago, it had been sunny and sandy, and the grass had been green. Now, the place was a mess. The beach was dyed red, and the trees were destroyed, leaving a shade of gray on the island. At this time, at the highest observatory on the island, a short-haired girl wearing a fisherman's outfit looked out seriously. She was Darsia's only war goddess, Gabriela. There were some cuts on her face caused by the battle. However, it didn't affect her beauty at all. Instead, it made her look strong. Suddenly, there were footsteps behind her, and Valerie rushed over, almost crying. "Gabriela, Ben, and Tim … They're gone!" Gabriela was shocked, as these two men had been by her side for years. Ben had become a father last month, while Tim only had his mother with him. Clenching her fist, Gabriela said, "Make sure their funeral is completed. At least let their family see them for the last time. Go and arrange to give their family the best
Hearing that, the other warriors laughed and licked their lips. On the other hand, the 14 grandmasters from Darsia were infuriated. "You must die!" Valerie shouted, and she was about to attack Shane. However, Gabriela quickly grabbed her. "When two armies are at war, we must keep our peace!"Then, she turned to the warriors of Sakurasom and shouted, "You are currently on Lugio Island of Darsia. Please leave right away. Otherwise, we will kill you without mercy!" "Kill without mercy!" The 14 grandmasters shouted at the same time. For a brief moment, the scene was silent. Suddenly, the warriors of Sakurasom let out a deafening laughter. They bent their backs exaggeratedly as they laughed. Shane teased, "According to Darsia, sex is poison. War goddess, I would like a taste of your poison! Come over to me. I can't bear it anymore. I wish to be immersed in you. Hahaha!" Valarie was furious, and she trembled in anger. Still, Gabriela remained expressionless. She was silent and o
Looking at this scene, Gabriela also frowned. She had the confidence to deal with King Shino, but it would put her at a disadvantage if she went up against two experts. She didn't have the confidence to win a fight against three. She hadn't expected Sakurasom to send over three experts just to take down Lugio Island. This was far more difficult to deal with than before.Shane seemed to have read what was on Gabriela's mind and laughed viciously. "War goddess, we're not here for the island! We're here for you! We plan to have fun with you for two years, then make a movie and sell it worldwide. Then, the world can admire how stunning you are!" Leon licked his lips and smiled. "Pretty lady, I don't mind being the male lead. Don't you think we're a good match? I'll let you experience the heavy weight of a Sakurasom man." Then, Lily spoke in a coquettish tone. "You guys are so mean and so vulgar! War goddess, I'm not like them. I'll be very gentle with you and treat you with love."
Dealing with the illusionist as a level-five top grandmaster was challenging. Not far away, a black sword slashed down among the lily petals, and it seemed to rip open the air. Gabriela could feel it and quickly blocked it with her gun. A huge force erupted when the weapons touched, and the lily petals scattered to the ground. However, there was nothing above her. In the next second, the lily petals bounced back, flooding the surrounding space. Shane didn't appear before her, but only a black sword. All Gabriela could do was defend herself while the lily petals ballooned endlessly."Pretty lady, I'm coming for you!" Leon's voice sounded in her ear. Immediately after that, Leon's huge figure appeared behind her. He clenched his fist and aimed for Gabriela's back. Just one of his fists was as big as a human's head.Seeing that, Gabriella quickly dodged. However, Shane's black sword was also slashing toward her. It was hard for her to deal with two attacks simultaneously. Fortunat
Her speed was faster than ever, creating a buzzing sound when she flew through the air. "Shoot! Run!" Shane and Leon were horrified and shouted in fear. They'd never expected themselves to fall into Gabriela's trap. Lily was an illusionist, and she wasn't good at close combat. Lily didn't expect Garbiela would use this suicidal way to attack her. Terrified, Lily quickly dodged. Unfortunately, she was too late, and the silver gun pierced her shoulder. In that instance, the illusion disappeared, and everyone could finally see the island again. They realized the island was filled with more corpses, and the shore was dyed red. In the end, only five grandmasters could stand up and fight. Even so, they were also covered in blood. Moreover, they were each surrounded by at least eight Sakurasom warriors. Then, Gabriela raised her gun, and Lily's arm was gone. "Ah!" Lily screamed heartbreakingly, constantly retreating and fleeing for her life. Her expression was no longer gentle a
Fear appeared in Leon's eyes; he'd never expected Gabriela to be so powerful. At this time, he still had some strength and quickly retreated. Unfortunately, it was too late. Gabriela's silver gun stabbed into his stomach, and she leaped from the ocean while holding his body. "Ah! Fucker! Motherfucker!" Lily was furious when she saw that and waved her fan to cause huge waves on the ocean to attack Gabriella.At the same time, Shane disappeared into thin air and soon appeared beside Gabriela. This time, he didn't care if she was a pretty woman and slashed the black sword into her head. Gabriela quickly used her gun to block the attack. However, she had exhausted her energy and couldn't dodge the force of the black sword, causing her to fly into the air. At the same time, the huge waves slapped her body and threw her back to the observatory deck. "War goddess!" Valerie shouted, quickly escaping from the warriors surrounding her and rushing toward Gabriela. She was able to cat
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
