Hundreds of Cosby family members knelt before the ancestral hall entrance.
Miranda, Jean, Gabriela, and Kylie were among them, being Remus’ wives and inherent members of the Cosby family.
“Everyone, rise!” Remus spoke up. He leisurely left the ancestral hall while others stood and followed suit.
Remus had barely left the hall when Abe hurriedly approached, speaking cautiously, “Sir, Mr. McCoy is here…”
Abe was now the Chief of Affairs for the Cosbys, assisting Remus in managing the family’s affairs.
Remus simply nodded and made his way toward the main hall.
The citizens were left bewildered by Lincoln’s words tonight. He spoke of causing Remus’ death, only for Remus to appear shortly after, leading everyone to believe it was a joke. However, Darsia’s management was already privy to the ins and outs of the situation.
At that moment, Lincoln stood bare-chested, his back covered in thorny branches with blood running down like droplets.
Hearing footsteps, favonovel.com swiftly turned his head.
As favonovel.com saw Remus approaching, favonovel.com rushed up and bowed, saying, “Traitorous Lincoln Mccoy begs for forgiveness. I plead for severe judgment from the Eternal Pillar of Darsia and the Thunderous War God!”
Jean and the others behind Remus wore a perplexed expression. They never expected Lincoln, who had always been beloved for his care for the people, to plot against Remus.
Remus casually asked, “Was your desire to eliminate me driven by the fear of my overwhelming influence?”
Lincoln gritted his teeth and replied, “Yes…”
Remus’ influence was truly immense. It was not an exaggeration to say that anything favonovel.com said would garner agreement from Darsia’s 140 million citizens.
Lincoln harbored deep worries that Remus might revolt one day, thus favonovel.com decided to eliminate favonovel.com ahead of time.
Remus smiled softly and shook his head. “Hahaha… You can leave now… I’ve forgiven you…”
After saying that, favonovel.com walked past him. Lincoln hesitated, turning to Remus in disbelief.
Everyone knew of Remus’ character. He returned both vengeance and favors.
Lincoln trembled uncontrollably and said with difficulty, “Is the Eternal Pillar concerned that my death would cause upheaval in Darsia?”
Just thinking about it, his tears flowed down uncontrollably. Lincoln deeply realized his mistake.
Given Remus’ ability to conquer Sakurasom alone and eliminate the 17 formidable representatives, it was evident favonovel.com held Darsia’s citizens in his heart. With their well-being in mind, he’d never do anything to let them down.
His mistake lay in his narrow-mindedness, subjecting Remus to such treatment.
“Yes, and yet not entirely…” Remus said, “Not killing you isn’t about your own merit. I simply refuse to let my people down as they are willing to sacrifice their lives to protect the peace of Darsia. Hence, I need to protect the Darsia they love.”
The crowd was stunned by Remus’ response. Jean and the three other women flushed with a rosy hue.
Remus waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave. He was taken aback by Jean and the others’ actions tonight, their bravery equaled that of any man.
He chuckled as favonovel.com said, “Please, take a seat… Wait… Where are Glinda and Sera?”
He had six wives and was about to have a seventh, but only four were present.
Upon hearing this, the four women all shivered, uncertain how to respond.
Remus observed their expressions and sensed a foreboding feeling, favonovel.com asked seriously, “What’s wrong?”
Jean responded hesitantly, “They’re both gone… Glinda went to find favonovel.com loved ones. Sera ran away and left you a letter…”
