Back at the Lotus family's villa, Gerald volunteered to take up the task of killing Remus. "Sir Wallace, I can go over immediately and kill Remus Cosby!" Wallace sat at the main seat and seemed calm. He had a smile and an air of evilness that a guy his age should not have. "How interesting. This is getting interesting indeed. He could actually recover his martial arts. I'm surprised."Although he told them not to underestimate Remus and to be careful of him, he didn't think he would actually return. All he wanted was a peace of mind. To his surprise, Remus appeared. He looked at Gerald and asked, "Are you confident?"Gerald frowned and said seriously, "That kid is unstable. It's hard to make a judgment. He could defeat two half-step divine realm top grandmasters, but he couldn't handle Elmer's fist. The facts pose something of a paradox." "If I go over, I am quite confident that I can kill him." Gerald didn't want to overpromise. "That's not the answer I want!" Wallace got
Gerald did not leave. Instead, he walked toward Jean, pressed his hand on her head, and gave her some energy. Soon, her complexion became ruddy again. Then, he sneered, "If you're lucky, you might witness your husband killing your true love."…Back at the Imperial Villa, Kylie cursed Remus after seeing Glinda and almost started a fight. After that, she returned to the house angrily, locking herself in her room and ignoring Remus. Remus was speechless. Moments ago, she looked at him with so much affection. In a blink of an eye, they had turned into enemies. It was truly difficult to understand a woman's heart. Helpless, he asked, "How did you find this place?" Glinda said, "I could feel a battle here, so I came. Is she the one getting married tomorrow?"Remus wasn't in the mood. He casually answered while walking back to the house. "It's not her. That's another person."Glinda was shocked. Suddenly, there was murderous intent in her eyes. "Another person? Sure enough, all men
Remus Cosby? Instantly, the atmosphere in the living room became weird. Glinda looked upstairs before looking back at Remus. There was doubt and awareness in her eyes."What? Remus Cosby is here?" Glinda asked. Remus quickly lied as he looked outside the window in panic. Then, he pulled Glinda to the basement. "He's really here! Glinda, you should hide. Go!" "He's here? He's outside?" The doubt in Glinda's heart disappeared when she saw Remus' reaction. After all, Damien said Remus was from the Sparks. So he shouldn't be Remus Cosby. "Yes. Kylie must have called for help. She's … She's Remus' sister. Kylie must have been mad that I brought you home, so she called him over to teach me a lesson. I can't explain too much. You have to hide. In your current state, you're not strong enough to fight him." For now, Remus had to keep his identity a secret. If Glinda discovered he was Remus Cosby, he could not imagine what would happen. After thinking about it, Glinda nodded. "I should
Remus walked over and said seriously, "I always try my best to do what someone has entrusted me to do. Kylie, I've agreed to help Glinda recover her powers. I have to keep my word. Why don't you go up? I'll help her release her blocked meridians." Then, he walked into the room. Glinda's eyes lit up as she was going to be cured. "No!" Suddenly, Kylie shouted and snatched away the lucky apple. She said nervously, "Re … Honey, you're going to pick up Jean tomorrow. You shouldn't exhaust too much energy tonight. Let's wait. I'm also tired, so I'm going back to rest."She ran up to her room after that. Remus looked at her disappearing figure helplessly. "Ms. Sky, I …"Glinda looked disappointed, but soon came to her senses and said, "I don't blame you. After all, Remus Cosby is her brother. I'm the one at fault in this situation. If I had waited for you, she wouldn't have discovered me, and everything would have been simpler."Remus shook his head and said firmly, "Ms. Sky, please do
Everyone was shocked and turned their attention to the Lotus' villa gates. Senior Baker, Goetz, and the others looked happy as they waited in anticipation as to whether the Lotus would open their gates. Remus was the most talented man in Darsia at the moment. No one his age could defeat him. Therefore, any woman who married him would be highly respected, and even her family would have the utmost glory. The Lotus might be one of the seven most prestigious families now, but if Jean and Remus married, they would become the most prestigious family in Darsia. Everyone was deep in their thoughts. Although Remus was good at martial arts, medicine, and wizardry, the Lotus were still on bad terms with him as of yesterday.Today, they were going to marry Jean to Remus. Didn't they feel embarrassed? They even made such a huge commotion last night. Something must be going on.Finally, the Lotus' gates slowly opened. Winston came out with trembling legs, and he was scared to look Remus in the
Remus didn't want to create a bloody battle, and he didn't want to put Jean in a difficult position. Therefore, this was the best way to solve it. Instantly, the atmosphere became weird. Gerald was a genuine expert recognized by Darsia and had long been a half-step. And Remus wanted to fight him?Goetz was nervous. "M-Mr. Cosby, but h-he's a …""Remus Cosby, you—" Valerie couldn't help but speak. What Remus had suggested was too risky. Although she wished Remus would lose, she was more worried about his safety. Before she could finish, her father stopped her. As for the others, some were happy, while some were worried. Many were curious to see Remus' true strength.Gerald nodded. He exerted his inner force as he spoke, "Okay! Then, I'm going to put everything into this one move. Mr. Cosby, I won't show you mercy!" Then, he leaped into the air and flew higher than the doves. "As expected from Gerald, he's so powerful. This leap is equivalent to all the power of a level five t
Remus was shocked when he heard what Jean said. Javier, Gerald, or anyone in the Lotus could ask him to leave, but he never expected such words to come from Jean. Jean repeated, "Remus, when I left Neptuna, our relationship had already ended then. We're just strangers now. I don't have any feelings for you anymore so please don't disturb my wedding. Please, leave." In the end, she sobbed. Remus could even see the tears rolling down her face. The people from outside just happened to walk in as she said that. Anthony was agitated, "Ms. Lotus, y-you and Mr. Cosby love each other!"After all, Anthony had witnessed every step of their love. When Remus was a nobody, Jean was the one who helped him out the most. How could she not have feelings for him?"Yes. Ms. Lotus, Mr. Cosby is here to take you home. You guys are made for each other." Willow was anxious. Before anyone could speak, Remus raised his hand to stop them before walking over. "Is someone threatening you? Don't worry, I'm
What kind of dowry was this? As the king of two provinces and Darsia's most talented man, he could have brought over billions of dollars or even gifted the Lotus an island. Or he could give them some kind of pill since he was a wonder doctor. They didn't understand what kind of items were this? However, the cherry tomato looked good. It should be organic. As for the gemstone, it looked muddy, unlike a premium-grade item. This was how Remus showed his sincerity? Finally, Bruno found a chance to speak. "If the Lotus think this is too little, the Sarons are willing to give ten imperial-grade gemstones as dowry for Mr. Cosby to marry Jean."The Burkes quickly followed. "The Burkes are willing to do the same!""I—" Greg wanted to speak but quickly stopped himself. Remus was still well and alive. Ned predicted that Remus would die today, and nothing happened. So, should he flatter Remus?Others started to speak up, trying to impress Remus. Suddenly, Wallace shouted as if he had become
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
