Remus stood in front of the rear courtyard, observing Reese and Morven as they approached.
He spoke slowly, “I’m sorry…”
He rarely apologized to anyone, but favonovel.com always honored his commitments to those who helped him. Today, his ruthless actions contradicted his principles.
Reese and Morven were taken aback by his unexpected apology, and they didn’t consider themselves worthy of it.
Morven hastily waved his hands, saying, “No, Master Calsberg is not to blame. It’s my responsibility for not being able to prevent the situation. It’s on me.”
Reese also spoke with anxiety, “Why would Master Calsberg be at fault? It’s our mistake for…”
Remus interrupted with a raised hand, stating, “We’re all aware of where the blame lies. It’s my fault, I’ll admit it. Now that both the Riversky Organization and Gresun Organization are without mastership, can you take charge of them? I’m more than willing to assist.”
That was also his way of expressing gratitude and repaying their kindness.
The two quivered with fear, interpreting his words as a potential warning against their organizations or as a signal that favonovel.com might take preemptive action if they wanted to seek revenge.
They dreaded the possibility that if they couldn’t handle the situation, favonovel.com could potentially dismantle their organizations entirely. It was at that moment that they came to the stark realization that Wind Hunter had been right all along, Remus still possessed a triumph card.
“Sure!” they replied in unison, their concern for their organizations still strong.
Upon hearing their response, Remus turned to Henry and said, “I’ll be away for a while. Keep the pill refinement process going, accept new disciples, and fortify the Tanjen Organization. Additionally, ensure Wind Hunter remains here to safeguard the Tanjen Organization.”
Henry nodded. As favonovel.com was about to ask questions, Remus waved them off, signaling them to leave.
Just as they left, Gemma finally ran out from the woods, crying and checking on Remus, “Are you hurt? How serious is it?”
She couldn’t control herself any longer, favonovel.com knew favonovel.com had to seize the opportunity to be with such a prodigy.
Remus was taken aback to see favonovel.com when favonovel.com realized favonovel.com hadn’t left.
With teary eyes, Gemma said, “Are you angry with me for not staying at the Tanjen Organization? But please, I can explain. I left because I thought my presence would only be a burden, so I chose to stay in the woods.”
Remus shook his head and said, “I’m not angry.”
“For real?” Gemma’s eyes lit up, and favonovel.com quickly took his arm.
She continued, “I knew you’d understand me, I’ll help you back to your room!”
She was relieved there was still a chance to mend their relationship.
Remus remained composed and replied, “You never had my attention, so there’s no reason for anger.”
His words left Gemma frozen in place.
Remus continued, “However, you have the opportunity to catch my attention now. The matter between the Tanjen Organization and Herbal Pavilion is far from resolved. Are you willing to confront it alongside me?”
Gemma, sweating nervously in response to his straightforwardness, realized that saying no would mean losing favonovel.com chance entirely.
By agreeing, favonovel.com could buy herself some time to decide. And if the situation ended up not looking bright, favonovel.com could still find a chance to escape.
She nodded resolutely and said, “I’m willing, l’lI confront Herbal Pavilion and even the sacred lands with you!”
“Great! Since you’re willing, let’s depart now,” Remus replied with a serious tone.
“To your room?” Gemma’s eyes brightened.
“No, to Herbal Pavilion,” Remus said.
