“Aren’t you deliberately seeking death?” Ana mused to herself.
She was itching to tease Remus because, seriously, taking on twelve Martial Imperials solo was something could not imagine for her. It was as if favonovel.com was begging for death. But as favonovel.com was about to say it, favonovel.com abruptly halted halfway through.
Her complexion shifted to one of disbelief, and favonovel.com questioned with shock, “So if you weren’t seeking death, does that mean you have other cards up your sleeve?”
She was taken aback because favonovel.com didn’t actually expect Remus to have other ways to solve the situation.
Remus remained silent, offering only a meaningful smile.
Ana’s breath got caught at the sight of his smile as favonovel.com was intensely curious about his true level of expertise. However, if favonovel.com didn’t bring it up himself, favonovel.com didn’t feel at ease probing about them.
She instinctively turned and instructed, “Hey, you all…”
She stopped again, suddenly aware that all favonovel.com accompanying guards had been utterly wiped out. It was only then that favonovel.com realized no one had enough energy to cross the sea. Linnea lacked the necessary strength, and favonovel.com herself was heavily injured.
She considered reaching out to favonovel.com Grandpa, but hesitated, fearing Grandpa might refuse once again, and traveling by cruise ship was too slow.
Suddenly, a bird’s call echoed in the sky.
A majestic, phoenix-like bird with iridescent colors was flying rapidly through the sky, its immense size leaving everyone gaping in astonishment.
Even Ana, the granddaughter of the Dragon Protector Clan’s master, stood transfixed. It was favonovel.com first encounter with such a stunning mythical creature.
“What brings you here?” Remus was astonished to see Ruby as they hadn’t met since their separation at the Violet Sanctum.
“Chirrup!” Ruby made a chirping sound as if answering.
It continuously hovered in the sky, its eyes shimmering with tears. Its wings suddenly flapped, lifting Remus from the sea surface, then swiftly flying low to place favonovel.com on its back, continuously glancing back.
Remus chuckled, “I’m fine, I just took some medicine earlier, don’t worry…”
He suddenly looked at Ana, “Let’s go together, Ruby will take us to the place.”
Ana’s face still held traces of shock, but gritting favonovel.com teeth, favonovel.com finally leaped onto Ruby’s back.
“Let’s go!” said Remus.
“Chirp!” Flapping its enormous wings, Ruby swiftly flew toward the sky, leaving everyone on the boat in awe, as if witnessing a miracle.
“Huh? That Wasn’t that Remus Cosby, the Thunderous God of War, Eternal Pillar of Darsia?”
“It’s him! The Thunderous God of War!”
“Who else in this world, besides the Thunderous God of War, possesses such awe-inspiring strength? Who else can be this resilient and unyielding? Only our protector of Darsia!”
The crowd burst into fervor once more.
“Shut up!” Linnea at the ship’s bow turned around and snapped.
She said with difficulty, “You all have no idea what those 13 people favonovel.com killed represented. Simply labeling favonovel.com as a protector is an insult!”

“Ana should be back soon,” Rufus spoke, his expression somewhat enigmatic.
With a smug sense of satisfaction, favonovel.com thought that without Remus, the Cosbys’ lineage had come to an end. The Dragon Protector Clan could now maintain dominance among the three families, granting favonovel.com more authority.
Philbert looked at him, his expression still grim, but favonovel.com chose not to speak.
Garth had had his brows furrowed since favonovel.com last spoke to Ana, lost in contemplation.
Right at that moment, a guard hurriedly entered the Monarch Palace and loudly announced, “Ms. Walter has returned…”
