Underhill Prison was renowned for housing notorious criminals, from political assassins to arms-manufacturing warlords.

Yet right now, those dangerous criminals were trying to be as quiet as possible in the cafeteria because Remus Cosby was having his meal amongst them.

“When will that damned old man finally come back for me?” he grumbled, picking at his food in distaste. “It’s been three years. Is he dead or something?”

Though he complained, he deeply missed Master Tyson, the old man who had taken him in when he was young.

He had dropped Remus off at this prison three years ago and told him to train here for the time being. Remus had even gotten excited. He had hoped that he would finally find worthy opponents in such a dangerous place.

However, he couldn’t have been more wrong in that judgment, as he had beaten nearly everyone in less than 24 hours.

Remus had gotten bored after enduring three years of this.

“Boss, someone’s here to see you!” a warden reported while rushing into the hall.

Was the old man finally here for him? Remus immediately got up and headed to the visitors’ room, pushing up his sleeves. He was ready to show the man exactly what he had mastered over the last few years.

But he skidded to a stop when he saw a woman in the room instead. She was beautiful and tall, and she was dressed in office wear. She was a traditionally attractive woman.

“Were you asking for me?” Remus asked. He didn’t remember seeing her before.

She looked him up and down, contempt clear in her eyes.

“My name is Kylie Cox, and I’m your fiancée. My outfit costs 16 thousand dollars, not including this necklace which is worth at least one million dollars. I also have a house that is over 30 million dollars in value. I’m sure you can’t afford to give me anything like this.” She looked away, acting high and mighty.

Remus replied flatly, “I wasn’t planning on it anyway, you’re getting ahead of yourself.”

Buying all that was a piece of cake. After all, he had saved up quite a hefty sum in the three years he had spent here. Almost all the prisoners paid him monthly just to avoid a beating.

Kylie’s eyes immediately darkened. “So you plan on being a kept man after getting released?”

She realized that voluntarily coming here to dissolve their arranged marriage had been the right thing to do. How could a bum like him ever deserve her?

Remus was getting annoyed with her attitude. If she weren’t a woman, he’d have taught her a lesson by now. “How do you know if I’ll be released?”

“You…gah!” Kylie fumed. “I’m a successful businesswoman while you’re nothing but a bum stuck in prison. It’s clear we don’t belong together, so just give me our marriage agreement right now, and I’ll make sure we never see each other again. But I’ll be kind with my demands: you can have three conditions fulfilled in exchange. I can even arrange a compassionate release for you if you want.”

Kylie thought that this would be more than enough to compensate him. Prisoners longed for their freedom most, right?

“No thanks.” Remus didn’t want to waste his breath on her any longer, especially with her high-and-mighty attitude. Still, he was aware of the agreement she was talking about. His master had given it to him in a box when he first came here.

He asked a warden to bring it to him. When it arrived, he gave the woman an apologetic smile. “I’m not sure if you’re in here, by the way. If it’s not, we can just pretend this never happened.”

Kylie scoffed. Pretend this never happened? So he was trying to keep this arranged marriage going? In his dreams!

“Even if it isn’t, I’m still calling off this marriage!”

Just then, Kylie finally saw the contents of the box. There wasn’t just one marriage agreement in there—there were, in fact, nine.

A specific name even caught her attention, making her jaw drop: Miranda Bowen.

Miranda Bowen was Neptuna’s number one socialite, and she was an heiress to one of the most powerful families in the city!

“Found it.” Remus pulled out a piece of paper with Kylie’s name on it.

Kylie took it, suppressing her shock. “Are you in here for committing fraud?”

How else would he have so many marriage agreements? Kylie could only imagine all the women this man had lied to and cheated on.

Remus rolled his eyes and left the room without another word. Back in his cell, he stared at the marriage agreements grumpily. He had thought these were just some prank all this while. After all, who would want to be married to nine people at the same time?

But Kylie Cox’s appearance had permanently changed that impression.

“If anyone else comes in here about this again…” Remus grunted, shaking his head. Then, he thought, “What if I go and dissolve these agreements before they do?”

What a great idea!

Remus left his cell immediately. Box in hand, he went all the way to the head office by the entrance.

With a kick, he sent the towering metal gate flying open before marching out.

None of the onlooking wardens minded him, recalling how he had done the same thing three years ago when he first arrived.

Remus examined his surroundings, then remembered that Underhill was hundreds of miles away from any decent cities. Traveling to any of them on foot would be extremely tiring.

Just then, the chief warden ran up to him.

“Boss, are you leaving?”

Remus cocked his head. “Can’t I?”

The warden immediately shook his head. “Of course, you can. Leave whenever you please, boss! I just wanted to ask if we can start serving lunch now.”

He couldn’t wait for Remus to leave because once he did, he could reclaim authority over the prison.

“Sure. Whatever.” Remus shrugged. “Oh, get me a taxi, would you? I need to go to…”

He glanced at one of the marriage agreements before continuing. “Neptuna.”

Neptuna was where Miranda Bowen lived.

Five hours later, Remus boarded a flight to Neptuna.

“Small world.” He immediately noticed Kylie Cox sitting in first class, a little ways away.

She saw him too. “You’ve been released?”

Remus didn’t want to waste time explaining everything to her, so he just said, “Yup.”

No wonder he didn’t accept her offer of getting him a compassionate release. She scowled. “Let me say this again. We come from two different worlds, and we’ll never be together, so just give up now and get off the plane!”

Why else would he be on the same flight as her right after getting out of prison?

“You should really get your brain checked.” Remus rolled his eyes, then closed them to rest. It wasn’t like she owned this airplane.

“You-!” Kylie gnashed her teeth. He wasn’t just a bum; he was a jerk, too?

With one last glare, she tore her gaze away. It was too crowded to cause a scene right now.

They soon arrived at Neptuna’s airport. Kylie swiftly went up to Remus and warned, “You better not stalk me, Mr. Cosby, or I’ll show you just what I’m capable of in this city.”

With that, she stormed to the exit. Yet before she could step off the plane, a stewardess stopped her.

“My apologies, miss, but the airport is currently on standby to wait for a VVIP to exit the plane. Please wait here for the time being,” she explained.

Excitement flared in Kylie’s eyes. Neptuna had not gone to lengths like this for a big shot before, so she was really curious about who it was.

The other guests on the flight were just as surprised. The airport was on standby?

What kind of VVIP would be gracing them with their presence?

The stewardess then made her way to a seat and said respectfully, “Apologies for making you wait, Mr. Cosby. You may step off the plane now.”

    At the same time, in Darsia, Kaiser reported to Celestial and the others seriously, "Halvor has agreed to Amez's request and is currently leading all of Neskara's deities to Darsia. Based on the timing, they should arrive in about 12 hours."After Francis figured out Amez's plans, Kaiser had people keep an eye on Amez's movements. With a team that large, monitoring them wasn't difficult. Additionally, the exchanges between Amez and Halvor weren't concealed at all—anyone with ears could hear them.Moreover, even if there was some attempt at secrecy, Kaiser's men could still find out the content of their conversation. After all, with so many deities involved, there was bound to be some commotion."What?""What did you say?""These vile deities dare to attack my realm, Darsia! Do they have a death wish or something?"The ghost kings were extremely agitated, especially Grant. Despite not saying anything, his face changed dramatically. In his mind, he couldn't help but picture Halvor'

    But instead of responding, Amez commanded with an expressionless face, "Everyone, heed my words!"Hearing that, the Triad, along with the deities behind them and all their military forces below, prepared themselves, ready for action.However, none of them actually wanted to go all out. After all, if they had to fight, it would make more sense to target the weaker Darsia instead of Halvor. Attacking Halvor would result in significant casualties and could even diminish their own status and reputation.But none of them would undermine Amez right before such dangerous moments.Seeing this, Halvor and the 12 deities behind him were filled with fear. Were they really going to take action? They were being too unreasonable and overbearing!"Three!" Amez started counting down.All 12 of the deities turned to look at Halvor. Although they usually harbored resentment and often engaged in both open and covert conflicts with him, now, with the threat so imminent, it was ultimately up to him t

  • Chapter 3019

    Hearing that, Halvor's energy wavered for a moment. He felt tempted to retract his energy right there, but with so many deities watching, how could he simply back down and still command respect in the future?He would just have to push through and keep channeling his energy. "This is my domain—why would I need you to give me a chance? Today, there's only one outcome—you becoming nourishment for this land!"As he spoke, he turned to the deities beside him and said, "What are you waiting for? Come with me and kill these arrogant heretics!"Upon hearing this, the 12 deities' expressions visibly turned tense.Their minds raced as someone quickly advised, "Mr. Castillo, it's vital that you don't act rashly.""I think it's not the right time to take action yet, Mr. Castillo. Although Amez is acting arrogantly, he did mention he could give us a chance. Let's hear what he has to say before we make a decision.""Indeed. Our people have already gone through too much hardship. If we take ac

    Amez's voice reverberated throughout the sky.The Triad still wanted to say something, because Amez's decision was quite unwise and needed to be addressed. However, unexpectedly, Amez had already spoken up, so they had no choice but to hold back their words and wait to see how the situation would unfold.Yet, nothing happened even after the echoes of Amez's words died.Without saying anything else, Amez raised his hand and released his energy. This energy, sharp like a blade, sliced through the air, extending thousands of feet. Eventually, it struck something with a sound like a crack.A door had appeared at the other end of the energy. It looked ancient and dignified, covered with dense inscriptions, but now it had been forcibly split open by the energy.The corners of the Triad's mouths twitched. Amez's action was too rude. What if Halvor snapped later? If a fight really broke out, it would be best to let Amez deal with it on his own. It wouldn't make sense to go all out here on

  • Chapter 3017

    Amez was very pleased by their reactions. Indeed, if things weren't made clear, they might think he had no reason to do what he had done. But now that everything was out in the open, what else could they say? They should be singing Amez's praises.However, he didn't give them the chance to do so. He merely turned around and continued forward.The Celestial Triad was still stunned. It wasn't until Amez had walked away that they snapped out of it. They exchanged glances and could easily see their mutual approval of Amez in each other's eyes.Yet, the emotions beyond that were exactly the opposite of what Amez thought.After all, so what if Halvor and Silas joined forces? With Amelicon's current strength, they didn't need to fear them teaming up and could easily eliminate them.The Triad thought Amez was hesitant and worried too much. Worse, what other plans did Amez have? The others hadn't forgotten that he was the one who helped Franic regain his energy.But this wasn't the right

  • Chapter 3016

    The truth was, everything was just as Roman said. Amez, along with Amelicon's deities and the military department, did not return directly to Amelicon after leaving. Instead, they traveled westward along Darsia's border."Mr. Murray, where are we going?""We've been walking for quite a while!""Could you please tell me the purpose of this journey, Mr. Murray?"The Celestial Triad spoke up one after another.Amez didn't respond and appeared calm, but in reality, he was under a lot of pressure. This was because the situation with Darsia was both expected and unexpected.Based on his expectations—or rather, according to the expectations of everyone at Amelicon, if they had the capability, they would seek revenge immediately. As for things like the country, they wouldn't concern them.But unexpectedly, Francis still chose to protect Darsia, which was quite difficult to understand.Putting that aside, the fact that the whole of Darsia showed not the slightest desire to survive, with

    "There are three reasons," Francis shifted his gaze away and replied. "First, those deities have traveled a great distance to reach Darsia and have spoken disrespectfully to us. If we allowed them to stay or leave without consequence, how would Darsia maintain its dignity?"Second, their continued existence poses a threat to Amez because it might force Halvor and Silas to join forces. That's why, when we attacked, Amez didn't intervene for his own interest."Third, although they appeared to be strong, they were actually fragmented and disorganized, making it easy to defeat them. This also indirectly demonstrated Darsia's strength."Even after explaining everything, Roman still felt a bit dissatisfied because he was interrupted by Kaiser, and he didn't have the chance to snap back at Francis. It left him feeling frustrated, but since they had moved on to the next topic, bringing it up again would make him seem petty.On the other hand, the four ghost kings nodded slightly after list

    "Darsia's deep-rooted strength overcame his will, forcing him to change his mind!"Francis finally mentioned the crucial point. Yet, the others still couldn't understand.At this point, Francis didn't mind providing a bit more explanation. "You could think of it this way—Amez was here to attack Darsia."However, he doesn't want to pay too high a price to gain control of Darsia. If he loses too much in doing so, even if he manages to take over Darsia, he won't have the strength to maintain control over it."Everyone nodded. This point was quite clear.Halvor and Silas did not show up, which clearly indicated their strategy—reaping the benefits after the war. In other words, they also had an eye on Darsia's vast lands.If Amez invested too much effort in Darsia, they wouldn't have a guaranteed win against either of these parties. Therefore, taking direct action against Darsia would be playing right into Silas' and Halvor's hands."But he's already called in so many expendable troo

    "Huh?""Have they left?""Have they launched the attack?"Remus' partners were utterly bewildered, feeling as if they were dreaming, because everything happening seemed too unreal. They couldn't quite grasp why things were unfolding in this way, as it didn't fit into their logical understanding.Kaiser was also dumbfounded, but it wasn't the time to dwell on these questions. He ordered, "Starting immediately, launch an all-out attack on the nations of the deities who had come here, no exceptions!"With that, the war had officially begun.Millions of artillery shells were fired from Darsia, striking various locations around the world.From an aerial perspective, it appeared as though countless meteors were streaking across the sky, creating a breathtaking spectacle. However, for these small countries, it would be a devastating blow, leaving them with no room to fight back.The same applies to what was happening in the sky above Darsia.In terms of strength and status, the deiti
