"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
Just as Senior Cedric finished speaking, a longer sword appeared in his other hand. He swayed the two swords at Remus, creating a ripple in the air. The shadows of the huge swords covered the sun, darkening the world below. "Bastard! Give it to me! Give it!" Senior Cedric had to get the fortune fruit. Remus looked serious as he ate another fruit and ignored Senior Cedric. He knew he couldn't exhaust Senior Cedric's magic so quickly.Conversely, Remus knew if he weren't careful, he would be killed by the two swords. So he bit his finger as he ate the fruit and leaped up higher into the air to dodge the sword.At the same time, he chanted, "Nine order of mysticism, all the powers—" When he finished, dark clouds began to gather in the sky. In merely three seconds, lightning erupted like a huge snake and devoured Senior Cedric.When the crowd saw this scene, they were shocked, thinking Remus was all too powerful. Even Marten Dragon, the leader of the Dragon Team or Darsia's guardi
"Freestyle 36th move, freestyle shadow!" The swords disappeared just as Senior Cedric finished chanting. Then, he exerted more energy, to the point of depleting all of his remaining magic. Suddenly, a shadow that looked exactly like him appeared from behind. However, the figure was huge. It was at least 33 feet tall. Its legs were on the ground while its head reached the sky, it was like a divine being had landed on Earth. Even the thunder and lighting did not scare the figure. Everyone else looked like ants in the face of this shadow. It made one feel weak and naturally want to succumb to it. "W-What's that?" Goetz muttered."It's a True Life Shadow. How amazing!" Tristan was agitated. Under everyone's shocked gaze, Senior Cedric shouted, "Useless bastard! Die!" The shadow mimicked his words. It sounded very deep, like an ancient being. After that, Senior Cedric slammed his palm down. Remus had a bad premonition and wanted to dodge. However, he didn't have enough time t
Everyone was shocked that Darsia's first Secretary of State was here. Everything that happened in Darsia had to be reported to the secretary of state first, he also had the right to decide the outcome of most matters.As for the major and important events that involved Darsia's whole government, they would be reported to the president. In the cabinet, the first secretary of state had the highest power, only second to the president.The crowd looked over to find an elderly man with gray hair taking the lead. He looked like he was in good spirits, and he had a sense of nobility. This man was Solomon Stanley, Darsia's first Secretary of State who was in control of Darsia. Beside him was Senior Baker. He quickly said, "Remus, you don't have to worry. No one can hurt you today!" He was on his way to meet the president of the country, but Soloman met him halfway and asked him to come back. The crowd was stunned. Remus retracted his inner force and nodded, accepting Senior Baker's kindn
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
