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
Everyone turned over to look at the commotion. A young man in his 20s bounced into the living room. He was wearing a red suit with a flower in his chest pocket. He looked handsome, but the expression on his face gave an eerie feeling.Behind him was an older man in a blue robe. Following behind them were ten young men in light blue robes. This was their troop. Seeing the crowd, the leading young man clapped. "This is great. Everyone is here to witness my wedding. I'm getting married again."As he spoke, he shook his head and walked forward. Everyone was shocked. Was this guy a fool? How could the Lotus marry Jean to a fool? It was unbelievable. Wallace immediately changed when he saw the young man. With an evil smile, he walked over and even pushed Remus out of the way. "You're here! Senior Cedric, thanks for coming!"First, he greeted the young man before greeting the elder. However, the young man ignored him. Pushing Wallace away, he bounced toward the room. "Go away. I want to
"True Life?" Senior Baker yelled, and his expression changed. He looked at Xavier as if he had seen a ghost. Not only Senior Baker but even Gustavo, Timothy, Fergus, Tristan, Greg, and Goetz were horrified and in disbelief. As one of the most influential people in Darsia, they knew what True Life was. Most importantly, they knew True Life shouldn't be messed with. Looking at the expressions of these big shots, the crowd instantly stopped talking. Seeing how everyone was looking at him, Senior Baker said, "Cultivation to immortality." The crowd was shocked, and no one dared to speak. They had never heard of True Life, but they had heard about cultivation to immortality. Were they the people they had heard in legends?Senior Cedric took two steps forward and looked at Remus in disdain. "The most talented man in Darsia? What do you think of his status?" Wallace added, "Remus Cosby, do you know how much difference there is between you and my brother-in-law now? I never made it cle
Senior Cedric was even more furious. How could he be blamed if Remus wanted to challenge him?"Wait!" Senior Baker spoke again and wanted to help Remus since Remus once saved his life. There was sweat on his forehead as he said, "Let me persuade him. Remus, w-why don't you just give up? These are people from True Life." Goetz was also in a panic. "Mr. Cosby, we are very different from the people from True Life. We can't afford to provoke them. I-If it's possible, I'll find Gemma and let her marry you.""Mr. Cosby!""Remus Cosby!"Valerie, Geoffry, and Lora were also worried. They had never heard of True Life, but seeing how worried their fathers were, they knew it was serious. None of them wished for Remus to die. Tristian was so excited that his entire body shuddered. He didn't want Remus to agree to Goetz. As for Greg, his face turned red from suppressing his emotions. Could this be the reason Remus' dies?"I understand everyone's kind intention, but there's no need to fear
"How dare you act presumptuously in my face? I'll kill you today!" Senior Cedric did not stay in place after seeing that Remus was unharmed. He exerted his force and dashed toward Remus.When he left the ground, the crowd could finally breathe again. They looked up at the sky and had different expressions."Remus!" Jean couldn't stand it anymore and rushed into the courtyard. She removed her veil to look at Remus, whom she had missed dearly. Her face was covered in tears. Wallace sneered, thinking this would make Jean give up on Remus after witnessing his death. Tristian was even more excited as someone was helping him take revenge. On the side, Greg trembled in excitement. He had made the right bet. Today was the day Remus would die. Conversely, Anthony, Willow, Bruno, and the others were worried for Remus."T-This … What should we do? Mr. Cosby is in danger!" Goetz stammered as he spoke. He had never felt so anxious in his life. Although Remus had exposed True Life's secret, t
At this point, Jean couldn't hide her true feelings. From the day she returned to Centurio, Remus was the only man she had ever cared about. The only thing that motivated her to live was the moments she had shared with Remus. She didn't want to marry a fool and wished to die if she could. Remus' eyes reddened when he saw Jean on her knees, knowing that Jean still cared for him. "Jean—" Remus wanted to pull her from the ground, but Wallace had blocked his way. "What are you doing? Get up! Sir Xavier is your husband. Remus Cosby has nothing to do with you. So what does his death have to do with you? Get up!" Wallace shouted as he tried to pull Jean from the ground."I won't!" Jean struggled as she didn't want to get off the ground. She looked up at the sky and cried, "Senior Cedric, you're a noble person cultivating for immortality. You have a kind heart. I promise that I'll follow Sir Xavier's orders, so please let Remus go. Please!"Hearing her cries, everyone knew how deeply i
What was Remus doing? How could he eat cherry tomatoes at such a critical time? Was he mad? In the air, Senior Cedric was waiting for him proudly. However, his expression changed when he saw the fortune fruits in Remus' hands. "W-What is that you're eating?"Remus ignored him and put one of the fortune fruits in Jean's mouth. He smiled, "Wait for me!" After that, he exerted his inner energy, leaped up the sky, and faced Senior Cedric again. Goetz was shocked, "Did he just return to his maximum state?"Not only was Goetz shocked, but the others were stupefied. Remus was obviously weakened but quickly returned to his best state. Was it because of the cherry tomatoes?"Fortune fruit!" Senior Cedric shouted, and there was greed in his eyes. He raised his hand and said, "Give me the fortune fruit. If you give it to me, I'll forgive you, and you can leave. Give me those!"The fortune fruit could strengthen one's blood vessels, meaning it would also strengthen blood circulation and
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
