JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 156
Every civilian that was witnessing the fight between Little Nightmare and Jim wished that he would defeat her, but when they saw Jim crash into the building, which then caught on hot flames, they all felt their breaths robbed out of them all over again. None of them could stand with their spines straight anymore, for fear and death continued to grip their hearts, minds, and very souls.None of them believed they had the strength to defeat the little monster that was worse than anything nightmares they ever had in their dreams, after all.As the people’s heads lowered and their hopes were dying in their infancy, a mighty wind blew and put all the flames on the building to rest.And this wind somehow breathed life and hope back into the hearts of the onlookers that wished Little Nightmare was dead.The people lifted their heads and saw a man climb up the rubble of the rocky house, completely covered in dirt, but his eyes were still very much set on the woman that was standing on the nei
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 157
The mighty clash of Little Nightmare and Jim’s attacks created shockwaves that kept destroying very sturdy stone buildings. The people had to run for their lives, as the ongoing battle was too dangerous for them to be anywhere close. Even those who were hundreds of meters away could feel a strong wind pushing their bodies back.What’s more, Little Nightmare’s attacks were growing stronger by the seconds. She unleashed one flaming attack after another, not caring if people got caught up in her attacks.Jim could have deflected her attacks and saved his stamina, but because that’d cause more casualties, he had to block the attacks and take most of the force onto himself. Even after dozens of attacks, Little Nightmare was grinning. “Your defense is pretty solid. I’ll give you that, but I’m sure your ‘vivre’ reserves are already running out. You are going to collapse any second right?” she vehemently whipped at him.“Why don’t you think about your own safety first?” Jim caught the flaming

Jim frowned at Nightmare_lily’s words. (How does she know my name? Who is she?)“You look much more handsome in person than on the monitor,” Nightmare_lily said. She was very similar to Rena in terms of height and body structure. The only difference was that this woman’s face was a bit longer than normal, probably because of her forehead.“Sis!” Little Nightmare cried in happiness, but then coughed some more blood.“You should focus on recovering, you idiot,” Nightmare_lily coldly advised before shifting her attention back to Jim. “Honestly, I want to fight you and rip you into pieces, but rules are rules. People on the upper floors can’t kill anybody on the lower floor without the floor manager’s permission. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the floor manager’s permission before coming here, or your head would have already been rolling on the floor.”Jim’s gaze sharpened. “You are…”The people in the background were all terrified by the arrival of Nightmare_lily who was many times stronger
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 159
Jim’s heart was beating fast as the villains were talking about grouping together and ganging up on him. He was surely growing anxious, but he still clenched his fists with the resolve to face every enemy in the vicinity.A villain with a poison dagger sneaked up on Jim and tried to cut the back of his neck. He was short and fast, but Jim ducked in time.The short villain swiveled on one toe and struck Jim’s ankle, trying to make him fall to the floor, so he could then attack him and riddle his body with holes using his beloved poison dagger.Jim indeed lost his footing, and the short villain grinned and brought the knife down at his chest.“Phantom Palm!” Jim fearlessly thrust his palm at the incoming dagger.BAM~! CRACK~!The invisible shockwave sent by Jim’s palm not only stopped the attack but also struck the opponent like a mighty wave of energy and sent him flying high and into the ceiling.The short villain’s eyes widened, and the dagger fell out of his hand. As the short villa

Jim didn’t realize that he was so tired until all the villains left, and he loosened his spine. He sat down, but his heartbeat was still going strong.[You did well.] Joe said. [But you would have lost your life, too. You should be more careful, or you won’t be lucky all the time.]“If I don’t take risks, I won’t grow fast,” Jim said. “I can clearly feel it. Whenever I’m fighting, I can’t use all the skills I practiced, but I’m definitely improving. I have to get used to fighting these villains, so I’ll be clashing with as many as I can.”[Don’t tell me… you’re planning to attack them before the three day limit given to you?] Joe quickly asked.“No. I’ll use this time to learn more about this floor and also practice my skills to improve my stamina,” Jim said with resolve. “I have to prepare for the worst case scenario.”[That would be fighting all the villains on this floor.]“And also the guy that brought me here,” Jim’s gaze turned cold. “I have to be ready to face him even if he at

“Why are you lying?” the topless woman asked back. “You came to this place and fought with Little Nightmare. She didn’t attack you first. You came here and threatened her position. So, the fight happened because of you. You are responsible for all this destruction. Why don’t you at least accept that fact, even though you don’t look like you’ll take responsibility for it?”“I never said I wasn’t part of the reason why the house got destroyed,” Jim said. “I only said that it’s not my fault. We live in a place where you can basically do whatever you want. You can’t blame anybody for destroying your house, much less putting a dagger in your heart.”The topless woman frowned. “It is now clear that you’re not the hero that we thought you were. You just came here to occupy this place. Am I correct in assuming that?”“Yep,” Jim replied with a straight face. “That was my intention all along. I’m not in a position to shoulder bigger responsibilities because I already have a lot of shit in my mi

“T-There’s something on your hair, dude!” Jim didn’t freak out, but his heart definitely was thumping against his chest.“Ah, it must be the demon that is in me,” the adult man spoke with a bit of regret in his tone.“D-Demon?” Jim’s eyes slightly widened. “You knew that thing was in you?”“Not just me, but almost everybody on this floor has one in them,” he said. “The nanobots in us would build a system that is like a double-edged sword. It gives us strength, but at the same time, it also helps demons take a strong hold of us. If you try to resist them too much, they have the power to even kill you through the nanosystem. Many tried and failed. The only choice we have is to keep moving with them.”Jim didn’t take his glasses out because he could see the bull-faced demon grinning at him. “This is very creepy. I didn’t know that nanobots would bring demons into our bodies.”“You don’t seem to be using their power,” the adult man said, “which means you probably didn’t accept the nanobo
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 163
Doug brought Jim to the underground training room, which had a big rock door that required multiple men to push it. As Jim saw these men struggle, he told them to move aside and pushed the door open all by himself.“As expected of our new lord, he’s quite powerful!” One of those men said.“He brought Little Nightmare to her knees, so of course, he’s pretty powerful,” Doug told them. “Stay here and take care of his needs.”“Since when did you become our boss?” they snorted at him.“I’m his assistant now,” Doug proudly said. “So you better listen to me unless you want to lose your job here.”“N-No,” they quickly changed their minds because just guarding the training grounds would get them food once a day. Getting good once every day was not common on the second floor. Only the strong got to weak multiple times a day, after all.The training grounds was a big hall full of stone dumbbells, barbells, and many more exercise equipment. There were even stone poles where calisthenics could be
