Soon, the charity ball began, and the opening act was an orchestra performance. Everyone enjoyed their dinner while watching the show. Once everyone had filled their bellies, the charity auction began. Some people donated items, while others donated money. Once all the funds were collected, they would be donated to charity. However, no one donated items worth more than one million in such events."Let's all welcome tonight's organizer, Mr. Long, with a round of warm applause. Next, he'll bring out his auction item for tonight's charity ball," the host said with a smile. Following that was a burst of applause from the crowd. Julia clapped excitedly below the stage before turning back to look at Kylie and Remus. When she saw that they were still there, she sneered. Even though they had those fancy titles, they still had to auction the item Tobias brought over and make him happy. Remus didn't care and only admired the sea view. As for Kylie, she felt awkward being stared at, so she
Just as Stan walked up the stage, he stared at the red ruby on Julia's neck and asked in excitement, "Is this … Is that the famous red armor bloodstone?Everyone immediately looked over as there were many jewelry collectors present today. They had noticed Julia wearing a red gemstone but had never heard of the term red armor bloodstone.Julia said proudly, "Master Carter, you have a good eye. This is indeed a red armor bloodstone! When Mr. Long and I first started dating, he gave this to me."After that, she glanced at the crowd proudly. Many ladies were wearing expensive jewelry tonight, but who could compete with the piece she was wearing? Then, she glanced at Kylie again to see she was wearing a sapphire necklace. She thought she was shameless. Stan nodded. "I can see that Mr. Long likes you a lot. Many people might not know, but the red armor bloodstone has its own grading standards. A bloodstone is common, but the red armor bloodstone is rare. It takes ten thousand years to f
Not only was Julia trying to take her money for charity, but she also wanted to ridicule her based on the jewelry she wore. Everyone immediately looked over. Of course, they knew what Julia was doing and looked at Kylie with contempt. "This is just a normal gemstone," Kylie felt guilty being stared at and chuckled."That's normal?" Stan yelled in shock, surprising everyone. He stared at Kylie's sapphire necklace as if he had seen a ghost and shuddered."Master Carter, what is happening?" Julia had a bad feeling about this. The crowd also found his reaction to be weird, and they all stared at Kylie with puzzled looks. "That's an imperial-class gem! Imperial!" Stan seemed to have become a madman as he rushed over and stared at the sapphire. "Yes! This is imperial-class sapphire. Look, it's crystal clear, and you can see the light flowing through it! Without a doubt, this is imperial-class sapphire!" Everyone at the scene was shocked. Many of these collectors have never even s
Suddenly, Remus spoke while taking out the jewelry box he had prepared for Miranda. It was similar to the piece of sapphire necklace on Kylie's neck. Although Remus wasn't there to witness the scene, he heard everything that happened. It was just that he was too lazy to deal with them. Also, he was worried that Kylie wouldn't let him speak, so he spoke when there was a chance.Everyone on the scene was dumbfounded that the other piece was also with Remus. They thought Remus was generous when it came to making his woman happy. When Sienna heard Remus' voice, she almost peed herself as she didn't expect Remus to show up."This … This … I don't have any more regrets anymore in my life!" Stan looked at the two pieces and almost cried. "To be honest, after hearing that Mr. Charles had finished these two pieces, I wanted to take a look. But the Saron family never showed it to outsiders, so I never got the chance to look at it. Now, I have the honor of seeing the two pieces together!
The crowd was shocked when they heard the price. It was true that this pill would be able to save one's life, but the starting price of 100 million was a little too high. At least they could still sell the gemstone in the future, which was considered an asset."110 million!" Kylie shouted, as she didn't want to become enemies with Tobias. So she decided to make a loss and continue to use money as a means of making peace. When Tobias heard that, he glanced at Kylie coldly, thinking that no matter how much money she spent, it wouldn't relieve his hatred. Once the charity ball was over, he would teach Remus a lesson.Julia gritted her teeth and made up her mind to snatch the two necklaces from Kylie after the charity ball ended."300 million!" Davy said. He was outraged. He never advised others, but after he gave Remus a few pointers, he ignored them. Conversely, he even took out imperial-class gemstones, and there were two pieces. Not only did Remus disrespect Tobias, but he was a
"Moreover, you were the one who wanted to pay a billion for it. I didn't force you to do it. So what does it have to do with me?" Remus argued.Davy was infuriated but couldn't fight back. Indeed, no rules indicated that Remus had to bid until the end. But didn't they want to make peace with Tobias? If so, they should bid to the end. Remus laughed, "Don't tell me you feel pity for your money. If you do, you can sell it to me. I won't ask for a discount. I'll buy it for a billion dollars." He didn't like how Davy was trying to educate him and pretending to be a considerate senior. In reality, Davy was letting Tobias get away with what he wanted and making Remus endure all the aggrieved emotions. "What a joke! Do you think I would pity money? Do you think I would care about a billion?" Davy was furious, and he would never sell it to Remus. Otherwise, his dignity would be trampled on the ground.Then, he glared at Remus, saying, "Fine! I'll remember you! We'll meet very soon!"Af
Everyone was dumbfounded. How could Remus scold Dr. Marley, and he was even demanding him? Davy was so angry that his body trembled as he had just spent a billion to buy the resurrection pill. How could Remus ask Dr. Marley to take it back? Wouldn't that mean he had spent a billion in vain? So he shouted, "Shameless bastard! I'm sure you don't actually know Dr. Marley! You're just putting up a show!" Julia sneered. "What's there to pretend? Just auction the Pretty Duo!"All the guests started laughing as they didn't believe Remus could order Dr. Marley, the chief physician of the National Medical Pavilion. Those who could get help from Dr. Marley were big shots in Darsia. It was a joke to them that Remus dared to demand Dr. Marley. Tobias also found it funny and laughed, "What did you just say? Is there something wrong with your mind? You want Dr. Marley to take back the pill. Do you think that's even possible?" Just as he finished speaking, his phone rang. Seeing the contact,
Stone did not get a response from Tobias, so he shouted, "Answer me! Otherwise, I'll make a notice to the National Medical Pavilion and stop all connections with the Long family!""No!" Tobias shouted instinctively. Although the Long family was one of the most prestigious families, they were still human and needed to seek medical care. The National Medical Pavilion was the best hospital in Darsia. He couldn't bear the consequences of cutting all ties with them. "I'll give you back the resurrection pill!" He said through gritted teeth. "Forget it. You can just give it to Mr. Mccoy. Just take it since he had spent a billion to buy it. However, this resurrection pill is my donation. Since we're at a charity ball, I must help, right? Mr. Long, is my donation amount higher than yours now?" Davy and Tobias were stunned. It was obvious that Remus was taking revenge on them."Let's go!" Remus wrapped his arm around Kylie's shoulder and walked away. If they don't leave now, they will re
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
