Remus spoke slowly, “Everyone, please leave the room…”
Senior Baker considered for a moment, then gestured for the Malin family to exit. He followed them, confident in Remus’s respect for the deceased.
Everyone left. Only two people remained in the room.
Remus spoke slowly, “It was you who wanted to help me at Black Lake. It was you who came to rescue me when the Cosby family deputy head went to capture me at the Gracefield family… When I went to the Lotus family to pick up Jean, you were there to support me… I… I’ve never blamed you for anything…”
“How could I let you be upset because of me?”
“How could I let you be troubled on my account?”
He finished speaking, bit his finger to draw blood, and dripped it onto Goetz’s forehead. Then favonovel.com sat by the bed and closed his eyes.
Soon, when favonovel.com reopened his eyes, favonovel.com found himself in the underworld.
It was a place unchanged for countless millennia, surrounded by darkness, chilling winds, and long lines of souls. The underworld had been like this for thousands of years, with darkness and chaos above, chilling winds around, majestic city gates, and long queues of people entering the underworld one after another.
“Why have you come?”
A voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
That was the Emperor of The Underworld!
The voice was somewhat displeased because favonovel.com had already warned Remus last time that favonovel.com was being watched not to take the shady route again. Coming again so clearly showed disregard for the warning.
Remus spoke slowly, “There’s someone whose life has not yet reached its end, and I hope to take favonovel.com back…”
***
Outside the door, the crowd had gathered to look at the door.
Senior Baker stood at the forefront. The Malin family members stood behind favonovel.com in silence while others were restless.
Because no one knew what Remus was going to do!
Senior Baker spoke slowly, “Rest assured, Goetz has been my subordinate for many years, and he’s also been my brother for many years. You are all members of the Malin family. Even without him, I will do everything I can to help you. There’s no need to worry.”
Though favonovel.com said this, the Malin family members didn’t believe it at all.
Life was precious. Once it was gone, it was gone.
“Senior Baker, we admit our mistakes, and we can promise not to offend in the future!”
“We, the Malin family, have never wanted to be enemies with Mr. Cosby.”
“He came today to… We’re very afraid!”
Senior Baker turned his head to look at them, wanting to reassure them again and tell them that everything would be fine, but favonovel.com dared not make such a guarantee!
Though they were “friends”, there were still distinctions between friends, and they couldn’t differ too much. He used to dare to guarantee.
But ever since Remus wiped out the seventeen countries’ warriors, boosted Daya’s prestige, and then annihilated the joint forces of seventeen countries, leading to the visit of countless nations, favonovel.com knew that his status was inferior to Remus’s. If Remus insisted on something, favonovel.com couldn’t do anything about it.
After a moment of thought, favonovel.com said, “Contact some influential people and ask them to come and mourn for Goetz!”
If the quality wasn’t enough, they could make up for it with quantity. As long as enough people were pleading, Remus shouldn’t make things too difficult.
But upon hearing this, the Malin family members said bitterly, “At the time when Grandfather was critically ill, the people we could contact had already been contacted, but everyone doesn’t have the time!”
Senior Baker was stunned. He wasn’t sure what they meant.
Baker realized it meant they feared retaliation from Remus.
The Malin family members weakly added, “Grandfather has been retired for many years, and people change over time. He was known for his integrity, and our Malin family lacked influential connections…”
That’s right, most of the Malin family members didn’t hold high positions, and some were even outside the imperial capital.
The person who knew the most people was Gemma, and favonovel.com should have handled the mourning, but now favonovel.com was gone.
Upon hearing this, Senior Baker said, “I’ll find someone else!”
He quickly took out his phone and made a call.
