This was what Francis had promised earlier, but he also didn't have any energy left to argue with Candace. The enemy was incredibly strong, far beyond what Francis imagined. After all, Silas, even in peak condition and with an avatar, was defeated by Amez in just three moves.On the other hand, Francis, Roman, and the four ghost kings didn't have their avatars, which meant they were not in their peak state. So, could they also be defeated by Amez in just three moves?No matter how they looked at it, the situation was against them.Meanwhile, seeing Melody and Rafael falling, Candace lunged forward to catch Melody while leaving Rafael to the other demons. After that, they gradually descended into the Mortal Realm, as there was no other place to rest at the moment.Francis and the others remained in the sky. Although they hadn't spoken, countless strategies ran through their minds. However, without exception, every plan ultimately led to a dead end.The disparity in strength was too

At the same time, in the Mortal Realm, after catching Rafael and Melody, Candace arranged for them to stay at Remus' partners' temporary lodging.It wasn't that Candace didn't have other places to take them, but given their current condition, it was not suitable for them to go to the Underworld, where Candace was more familiar with.In contrast, the Mortal Realm had a relatively mild environment, making it more suitable for recuperation.At that moment, Rafael and Melody were on the bed while Candace was sitting by the bedside.Wilda stood at the forefront of Remus' partners. It was their first time seeing Melody and Rafael up close, even though the two were still unconscious. They couldn't help but feel nervous, but amidst the nervousness, there was also a deep sense of sorrow.Judging by the women's expressions, it was not hard to see that this period had been very difficult for them.If they didn't have the responsibility of being accountable to Darsia's 1.4 billion citizens a

Soon, the sound of Jean vomiting uncontrollably could be heard outside the room.Remus' partners all turned their attention back to Rafael and Melody on the bed. Under normal circumstances, they would go out to check on Jean, but right now, they couldn't spare her much thought. They all wore expressions full of worry.However, one person had a completely different expression from them. Candace not only didn't avert her gaze but continued looking outside the window. Her energy slowly emanated and enveloped Jean, who was still vomiting outside the door.Calmly, she said, "Perhaps they might be able to wake up."Upon hearing that, everyone quickly looked at Candace, confusion filling their eyes. She had been silent all along, but now she was saying they could wake up.Candace added directly, "She's pregnant!"Everyone was taken aback once again. Pregnant?It seemed they suddenly realized something and quickly looked toward Jean, who was outside. Although they weren't doctors, they

It fell silent, and a wave of sadness spread throughout the room, growing stronger by the moment.Even Wilda, the leader, was quiet. People weren't afraid of despair itself, but rather getting a glimpse of hope when within that despair, only to have that hope quickly dashed. That was what it felt like now. Nothing was harder to bear than having the means but not the time.Noticing the heavy silence, Candace felt a twinge of guilt. Perhaps she had been a bit too harsh with her words.After pondering for a moment, she said, "Actually, there might be a way."Everyone glanced over quickly. They didn't say anything, but a glimmer of hope was clearly visible in their eyes, even though it wasn't very strong yet.Candace continued, "You can run away. Although Amez is formidable, Francis and Roman are not weak, either. Even though the outcome seems certain, what happens afterward is unpredictable."For example, if Francis and Roman manage to take out Amez, then internal conflict is bound

Only two hours!Candace didn't want to delay or wait any longer, as there was no telling when Amez would arrive in Darsia with Amelicon's deities. She knew she had to be gone before they got there. Otherwise, leaving would become extremely difficult."Two hours! What are we going to do?""Wilda, say something!""If we leave, Darsia will fall apart. But if we don't, what about the babies, Rafael, and Melody? What are we going to do?"Everyone spoke one after another, hoping Wilda would make the decision.Wilda was also deeply conflicted, feeling that no matter what decision she made, it would be the wrong one.If she left, she would forever feel guilty and tormented by her conscience, living in perpetual self-reproach. However, if she chose not to leave, what would happen to the children they were carrying? These children represented the lineage of Remus' bloodline."We'll split up!" She finally made up her mind. "Five will leave, and five will stay!"Upon hearing this, the res
