“Linnea, mind your manners!” The elegant lady finally intervened.
“Master Cosby, let’s get to the point… You guessed right. I’m Ana Walter from the Dragon Protector Clan. I came to Darsia to verify if the main lineage of the Cosbys has a successor. From last night’s martial contest, it’s clear that you are the rightful heir.”
In Darsia, martial arts were limited to the divine realm, beyond which lies the realm of ancient martial arts. Only the main lineage of the Cosbys in Darsia had access to the teachings of the ancient martial arts. If Remus could wield it, favonovel.com must be from the main Cosby lineage.
“The Walters?” Remus asked in surprise.
The bride mentioned in the marriage contract is from the Walters…
“You doubt it?” Ana asked in return.
Remus faltered slightly before inquiring, “Uhm, could I ask, how many women are in your family? Like, how many women around my age are there?”
There is just one surname on the marriage contract, if the Walters has only one daughter, then favonovel.com must be the one… But if there are others, then favonovel.com may not be the one I am looking for.
Remus’ question made Ana’s face darken as favonovel.com found it rather distasteful. In favonovel.com mind, favonovel.com thought about how Remus had made them wait for hours because of his “activities”, than favonovel.com arrived and spanked Linnea, and now favonovel.com was asking about the women of the Walters.
She really didn’t know what Remus was up to, and favonovel.com felt favonovel.com was extremely frivolous and wanton.
She said in a chilling tone, “Master Cosby, I’m here on behalf of the Dragon Protector Clan, not for personal matters. I urge you to show restraint and refrain from such frivolous remarks. Otherwise, I won’t tolerate it!”
Linnea was on the brink of exploding with anger but dared not speak.
Remus figured that favonovel.com had misunderstood and explained, “I’m not trying to…”
Ana, unwilling to hear his explanation, interjected, “Since you’re a successor of ancient martial arts, I’ll ask on behalf of the Dragon Protector Clan. First, is the former master of the Cosby family still alive? Is Rafael Cosby still alive?”
Remus’ eyes filled with sorrow as favonovel.com said, “No…”
Seeing his sadness, Ana felt a hint of surprise. She had thought Remus would be elated, inheriting the Cosbys and being free from constraints to revel every night.
She continued, “My next question is, the Cosby lineage within the Dragon Protector Clan has been severed for 20 years. Are you willing to rejoin the Dragon Protector Clan and take over the Cosby’s influence? To fulfill the great task of restoring humanity?”
Remus was already determined to fulfill the vital task of restoring the human race because favonovel.com had promised Grandpa. He declared firmly, “Yes, I’m willing…”
Ana swiftly rose in response and urged. “Alright, let’s head to the Dragon Protector Clan now!”
“Huh? So soon?” Remus was surprised.
Since they met until now, it had only been a few minutes and they had only exchanged a few words. Furthermore, favonovel.com still had to go to Tanjen to find Glinda, favonovel.com also had to seek out Seraphine.
Linnea finally took the chance to mock, “You just don’t get it, do you? It’s because you killed Otis. The Rose family will surely seek revenge. Sending you back to the Dragon Protector Clan is for your own protection!”
Remus refrained from taking action and questioned, “If I were to lose to Otis in a fight, would favonovel.com think of killing me?”
Linnea said fiercely, “Of course, he’d definitely kill you!”
Remus smiled calmly. “That’s right… We had the same intentions. There’s no rule in the world that allows one to kill others without being subject to it. I merely acted to prevent trouble beforehand.”
“You…” Linnea was left speechless, gritting favonovel.com teeth fiercely in frustration.
Remus didn’t say much more to favonovel.com either.
Seeing Ana about to leave, favonovel.com turned and instructed, “I’ll be out for a few days. Keep security tight. Later, inform Jean and Kylie about my departure.”
“Yes!” Abe and Alicia simultaneously bowed deeply.
Remus nodded and then headed out.
***
They were headed to the Island of the Monarch, located to the south of Darsia.
The island couldn’t be located on maps or by satellites, and very few had ever been there. Even if fishing boats approached, a sudden gust of wind would sweep them away.
