Chapter 11
Author: Oldwell
”Hold up!” Bald Richard called out, then carefully eyed Remus again.

People usually cowered at the sound of his name, so this young man really stood out. Bald Richard suspected that he was hiding something. Heck, he even dared to call the Dragon Head by name.

“You know the Dragon Head?” Bald Richard asked tentatively.

“Ask him that yourself,” Remus retorted.

Everyone realized how much of a big shot he was. No wonder he didn’t keep quiet or grovel before Bald Richard. Even the guy that was going to beat Remus up started to fear for his own safety.

Kylie frowned. Did Remus really know the Dragon Head?

Just then, Bald Richard’s phone call went through. His demeanor immediately turned sheepish as he asked, “Dragon Head, sir, are you busy right now?”

“Get to the point!” Anthony snapped. He was angry because he had just been informed of Remus Cosby’s true identity. Apparently, he wasn’t a highly-respected person; he was just some guy who had scrubbed the Temple Lord’s toilet!

Yes, his Temple Lord had told him to treat Remus right, but Anthony felt like he had disgraced himself by becoming the guy’s personal driver. He had even put the airport on standby for him! As the Dragon Head, he couldn’t behave that way!

“Alright, sir.” Bald Richard nodded vigorously. “There’s a guy here called Remus Cosby. He says you know him. Do you, sir?”

Kylie’s heartbeat sped up as she waited for an answer. If Remus really did know the Dragon Head, business would go much easier for her.

“Who? Remus?” Anthony bristled the moment he heard that name. “I don’t know which shithole he’s from, so no. Why? Is he there with you?”

Bald Richard lowered his voice. “Ben Stuart from the Stuart family ordered me to cripple him.”

Anthony thought things through momentarily. He could just pretend he didn’t know what was going on. If anything, an apology to his Temple Lord would suffice. Remus was just some cheap lackey after all, so Anthony wouldn’t get in too much trouble.

“Do it then,” Anthony grunted before hanging up the call.

After receiving confirmation, Bald Richard immediately turned to Remus, his eyes glinting with murderous intent. “The Dragon Head has spoken, kid.”

His pause left everyone holding their breath.

“What did he say?” Kylie asked.

“He said…to finish you off!” Bald Richard growled. “I was going to let you off easy at first, kid, but not after that stunt you pulled! You’ll be leaving here in pieces!”

“What?” Kylie gasped. She hadn’t expected this to happen! She should’ve known better than to trust Remus!

Remus blinked in surprise. “Anthony told you to finish me off?”

“Get him!” Bald Richard ordered. “Make sure he’s begging for mercy by the time we’re done with him!”

Just like that, all the lackeys lunged at him with weapons in hand, aiming for his weak points. The onlooking crowd and guests instantly retreated to safety, save for Kylie, who remained frozen with fear.

Much to everyone’s shock, the men soon landed on their asses, yelping in pain. It didn’t look like they were any match for Remus, like those guards from yesterday.

Kylie gaped, wondering how Remus had defeated them so easily when she didn’t even see him raise his fist.

“Anthony Mark actually said that?” Remus asked again, still finding the situation incredulous. Anthony had gotten soaked in the rain yesterday just to serve him. What had changed?

“I see you know a thing or two as well. No wonder you weren’t scared. It’s a pity that you’re fighting me right now!” Bald Richard declared, then swung a fist at Remus.

He had earned his place as sect head with hardcore training and proving himself over the years. He had even won three streets for their sect with nothing but his fists years ago. He became famous for his iron-hard fists. Those unfortunate enough to experience them were either left crippled or dead.

A loud slap landed on Bald Richard’s face.

“When did I give you permission to hit me?” Remus asked.

Bald Richard gaped in shock, fist still raised. He had felt the man slap him on the cheek, yet he hadn’t seen him raise his hand even once.

Another smack rang out.

“C’mon, talk.”

“I…”

He delivered another slap! Bald Richard flew backward while Remus concluded, “Ugh, you talk too slow.”

Bald Richard was left hunched over, spitting out blood and a few teeth.

Remus turned to Kylie. “Bring me to Anthony Mark.”

He didn’t like dragging things out or making a fuss. His master had taught him to always solve the root of the problem, so that’s what he would do.

Draculus Court, Anthony Mark’s flagship business, was one of the most successful entertainment establishments in Neptuna. You needed to have spent at least a million dollars to qualify for the lowest membership tier.

In the Nihil Suite, men and women sat together in silence, creating an atmosphere that did not match the club. In their midst, Ben Stuart was tossing back glass after glass of wine, awaiting Bald Richard’s call.

He had suffered one of the most humiliating moments in his life today. He had become the laughingstock of the equestrian world.

The horse had even…

“Slow down with the drinks, Benny. You’re ruining your liver,” a woman next to him said.

She was immediately met with a hard slap to the face.

“You dare order me around? Do you know who I am and what I can do to you, you whore? Get the fuck out of my sight!” Ben roared, making the woman flinch and tremble in fear.

Just then, his father called.

“Dad?”

“I heard about what happened to you. Come home for now. We need to prepare for the meeting with Ms. Lotus tonight.”

Ben sighed. “Alright.”

He swiftly went downstairs, but before he could reach his car, a Maserati slowed to a stop outside the entrance. The man who stepped out from the vehicle made Ben’s eyes bug out of their sockets.

“Remus Cosby!”

Why were his legs still functioning?!

“Oh. Hey, jackass.” Remus didn’t bother wasting his breath before striding into the club.

Ben’s knuckles were stretched pale. “You asshole.” Yet he couldn't try to fight Remus. He’d experienced the aftermath of that before and didn’t want to go through it again.

Just then, he spotted Kylie Cox getting out of the car too. His demeanor changed instantly, and he walked up to her with a polite smile.

“Hello there, miss. Are you one of Mr. Cosby’s friends? My name’s Ben, Skylar Stuart’s son and MD of Sky Group. I’d love to get to know you better.”

This card up his sleeve had always worked in the past.

Kylie gazed at him in awe. “Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Stuart. I’m Kylie Cox from Cox Corp.”

It looked like it was going to work once again.

Remus made his way up to one of the higher-class suites, where two guards stood outside. If he guessed correctly, Anthony Mark should be right inside.

Just as he took another step, one guard said, “Stop right there. Name?”

“Remus Cosby.”

    But what was happening to Roman was just the beginning.At that moment, a series of loud rumbling sounds followed one after another. The four ghost kings were all sent flying backward, their energy starting to waver. They were clearly reaching their limits.In comparison, the six deputy deities opposite them were only in a slightly more disheveled state than Amez, all of them panting heavily and struggling to stand steadily.Below them, the Four Great Beast Lords were starting to resemble machines as they fought back, or rather, their energy had been completely exhausted. The ones who were still standing were using their incredibly powerful bodies to withstand the enemies' attacks. Because of that, they were covered in wounds.Fortunately, Amelicon now had fewer than a thousand deities left. However, they had become an insurmountable barrier, preventing any further efforts to eliminate more of Amelicon's people."Attack!" Roman roared and charged toward Amez again.The four ghost

    "I didn't expect I'd have to face all of this right after being freed. It really is one thing after another," said another voice, this one much sharper than the ones before.Following the source of the voice, one could see that this figure was also enormous, standing at a thousand feet tall.It stood on two feet, and its hands swung wildly, although there was not much difference between its hands and feet. Its sharp claws gleamed with a chilling light.It was covered in snow-white fur, while the fur on its head and tail was a striking red. Its tusks protruded outward, and its eyes were cold and merciless.It was the beast trapped at Shenington, Skyran. It had also indirectly helped Remus back then."It's been a long time since I came back, but this is still my home. How could I let you troublemakers cause problems here? Huh?"The fourth voice came from overseas. At the same time, it seemed as if a small island was rapidly moving toward Darsia.Upon closer inspection, it became c

    At that critical moment, Rafael and Melody, who were meditating in the courtyard, suddenly opened their eyes. Without exchanging any words, they swiftly took to the air, their energy rapidly surging outward, colliding with Amelicon's energy in an instant.Cracking sounds echoed across Darsia, and it became evident that a crack had formed in the energy. In the next moment, the energy suddenly shattered, exploding like a sharp blade. It instantly sliced through the skies above Darsia, sweeping away all the clouds.Soon, Rafael and Melody both made a muffled sound, urgently trying not to open their mouths. After all, if they did, the first thing to come out wouldn't be their voice but blood.Their incredible strength lay in the past. Rafael was once the Demon Lord, holding his own against Roman, and could cause chaos even in the Upper Realms. However, he was imprisoned for a long time for Remus, and his energy was drained over time.Since he had only recently regained freedom, he had

    Clusters of demon energy exploded across the sky. This dark energy began to contaminate the Amelicon deities' energy, similar to ink drops falling into a bowl of clear water.The only difference was that, unlike ink, which would diffuse and thin out, this demonic energy permeated and tainted everything it touched.However, while the water in a bowl didn't move, the Amelicon deities' energy was constantly flowing. It caused the demons' energy to be rapidly absorbed and diluted, and it eventually disappeared.In the meantime, the demons had long vanished without a trace.Candace, who was in the Mortal Realm, cried out in anguish when she saw this scene, "No!"She struggled to push away Remus' partners and tried to join the fight again. However, the demon energy within her had dissipated, leaving her as nothing more than a severely injured woman. Never mind battling—even taking into the air was a challenge to her now."Darsia, we're here!""You heretics all deserve to die!"The Am

    At this moment, the place Candace had landed was no longer the main focus. This was because nothing there was related to the territorial struggle, nor did it concern the life and death of all mortals in Darsia. The most crucial matters remained above.The four other deputies from Amelicon's faction quickly engaged in combat with Darsia's three remaining ghost kings, who had just rushed in.If the ghost kings were still at their peak, they might have stood a chance against the four deities. However, it was clear from the initial contact that the ghost kings' defeat was only a matter of time. After all, the four deputies were fully energized and could outlast them in terms of endurance.In addition, there were Skyler and Virgil, who, despite being gravely injured, re-entered the battlefield in hopes of ultimately becoming Darsia's ruler. Nick, too, rejoined the fight, not wanting to fall behind.It was a battle between four ghost kings and six deputy deities. In an instant, the sky w

    Skyler and Virgil were also in shock. Nick's energy had jolted them awake, and they quickly realized that their own energy was insufficient to confront him. To their surprise, even before they could fully process this thought, they were ambushed by Candace.Skyler and Virgil stepped back again, both letting out pained groans. Clearly, Candace's attack had injured them significantly.Seeing that, all the deities on Amelicon's side felt a renewed concern. There was a chance of winning just a moment ago, but it had been a two-on-one situation. Now, Virgil and Skyler were seriously wounded the instant Nick joined in. At this rate, how could they possibly win?As they were contemplating, Candace and Nick launched another attack, charging fiercely toward Virgil and Skyler.A flicker of panic crossed the two deities' eyes, and the confidence they had just built up vanished. They felt a strong urge to turn and flee, but realized that if they did, they would never be able to maintain their
