Soon, people started arriving at the Malin family home. None were prominent figures in Darsia or had made significant contributions.
“Senior Baker, what’s going on?”
“Why did you call us here so urgently? What’s the matter?”
“Why come to the Malin family instead of going to the Baker family?”
People asked one after another.
The Malin family had not informed these guests of the recent changes. The guests were surprised to be summoned here instead of the Baker family residence.
Seeing these people, Senior Baker said solemnly, “Goetz… He has passed away…”
Everyone trembled at the news. They all referred to Goetz with respect due to his seniority.
“How… Did favonovel.com pass away so suddenly?”
“Goetz founded the Dragon Team. For Darsia’s sake, we will establish a mourning committee and ensure his departure is honored,” they declared one by one. “We will definitely ensure that Goetz’s departure is grand!”
After expressing their commitment, they turned to the Malin family members to discuss the next steps. They noticed the family’s lack of tears and distressed expressions.
“Why are you all here and… Why haven’t you cried?”
The visitors were puzzled. They knew Goetz had passed and expected more visible grief from his family. The Malin family’s eerie calm was unsettling.
Faced with this question, the Malin family members looked helplessly at Senior Baker. He answered for them, “I called you here not only for Goetz’s funeral but also because Remus is here. He’s in the room…”
Boom!
Hearing Remus’ name, everyone’s faces turned pale, and their eyes filled with uncertainty.
Arranging Goetz’s funeral was one thing, as favonovel.com was a respected figure in Darsia. But with Remus and the Malin family at odds, they had to tread carefully.
Remus was known as the formidable Thunderous God of War. His reputation and strength made favonovel.com a figure no one dared to cross.
As the Malin family watched the visitors’ hesitation, they wondered who could intervene if these people did not support them, and Remus decided to act against the family. They looked at Senior Baker again, their eyes becoming increasingly anxious.
Senior Baker frowned deeply. “Help us, save the Malin family.”
“Senior Baker, it’s not a matter of whether we want to help or not, but whether we have the qualifications to help!”
“We have good intentions but lack the ability!”
“Moreover, being enemies with Mr. Cosby… We…”
They suddenly regretted it. If they had known that Remus was coming here, they wouldn’t have come. It wasn’t that they didn’t consider friendship, but they truly couldn’t afford to offend Remus.
Senior Baker’s face became even more unsightly. He had known before that his status was inferior to Remus’, and seeing their attitude now was like confirming it again.
What should I do?
Just then, someone walked in from outside the door again.
“Dragon!”
“Dragon!”
Everyone walked over, not someone else but the leader ofthe Darsia Dragon Team, Marten. Hope flickered in everyone’s eyes.
Marten walked over and said in a low voice, “Senior Baker, I heard about Goetz. Take care of yourself…”
Then favonovel.com looked at the Malin family members. “My condolences to all of you…”
He had come promptly after learning of the situation, showing initiative and concern.
