JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 245
“Shit. Did I send him flying toward the tomb?” Barbosa quickly rushed over to the tomb as fast as he could. Along the way, he was forced to stop as his heart began to hurt. He coughed some more blood. (Is this because of that last attack I took from him? It’s more potent than I thought.) He bore the pain, wiped his mouth clean, and then got going. He soon reached the destination.Luckily, he could see that the tomb’s door was still closed.However, what he didn’t expect to see was that Jim was already up on his feet. He was bleeding from not just his eyes, nose, and mouth, but from almost every pore in his body, and yet, he was able to stand and glare at Barbosa.“I-Impossible,” Barbosa rubbed his eyes and looked again. Jim was still standing. How was this possible? “My attack must have destroyed everything in his body and even cooked his bones. He should be dead before his body could even hit the ground. Not only is he still breathing, but he’s also able to still stand and look at me

A while ago.“The real power is not in an energy that moves irrationally, but one that moves with rationality,” Jim was reading the War God arts. “Look at the sea waves. They don’t crash the shore in a straight line. They have ebbs and flows, but they also spiral inwardly as they reach the shore, as if they want to engulf everything in front of them. That is the nature of the sea. It destroys something and also absorbs everything in its path and makes it its own. That is the way of the sea. And it achieves that because its magnetic fields move in a spiral shape.“The spiral shape is found everywhere in nature. From shells of snails to the florets of sunflowers, you can see the spirality everywhere, even in the heavens above. Human life itself takes shape in a spiral form in the mother’s womb, with utmost precision. There’s no better formula of life, strength, and vitality, than the spiralness you see all around in the world. That’s why one must learn to spiral the energy in them, thr

The Beast Brotherhood was made of eight tribes. And the Master Council was the group that decided on every important matter. The Eight Masters were the rulers of the eight tribes. They are also called the Beast Masters.Currently, in the Master Hall which was built underground in some part of the world, the eight masters were having a meeting by appearing as holograms.The only real person in that room was Tenzin, whom all of them were interrogating.“Why did you kill your third brother?” her own biological father, Giles Demona, asked her. “And you even killed the sons and daughters of other tribes along with your brother?”“They were all grumbling and murmuring about my looks,” Tenzin said. “That’s why I killed them?”All the other seven Masters except for Giles rebuked her right away.“You kill them just for that?”“What if we also kill you just because you talk with us with arrogance and impudence?”“Yeah, we should weigh her with the scale she’s weighing others, so let’s judge her

On the third floor of the dungeon. Everyone was feeling anxious even though the tremors below them had ended. “Are you sure this place won’t collapse?” Little Nightmare was fearlessly asking the floor manager who was an old lady with a few missing teeth. “The third floor has two layers of flooring beneath us,” the floor manager, Binnie, said while eating a carrot pudding. “Though we lost one layer, there’s still another layer intact. So, the ground beneath us won’t collapse. You can just go to your place and sleep or do whatever you want without worrying about losing your ground.” “Do you hear what you’re saying?” Little Nightmare yelled again. “If we lost one layer so fast, then what’s the guarantee that we won’t lose the second layer in the same fashion? How do you expect us to feel safe when we’re all in danger? Have you even found what caused this trembling and what destroyed the second layer of foundation? Or were you so busy eating fucking carrot pudding?” “Right now, I wasn

In one of the caves near where there used to be the second floor.“Do you think Jim and Joker are still alive?” Doug asked Ace. They had hid themselves in one the cellars, behind the wooden boxes.“Keep your voice low,” Ace hissed at him. “There are beasts still roaming out there in this cave.”“S-Sorry.”“I hope they’re both alive,” Ace said in a low voice.Love Bullet was still tending to Ronny. “But what bothers me is the future that’s ahead of us. If the second floor is destroyed, then what will happen to us? Will we be allowed to go to the third floor? Or will they purge us for causing this mess?”Her words only worsened their expressions.“You’ve seen those laboratory rooms, haven't you, on your way here?” Love Bullet reminded them. “Those were definitely human-animal hybrid experiments. In the worst case, they might restrain us and then use us for those experiments.”Doug felt chills thinking about it because he had seen a horse-faced man in the laboratory, who was banging on t

Black Arrow and others managed to silently reach the location where the six-tusk mammoth was.Currently, it was rubbing its butt against an old beehive, in which there were no more bees.“Fuck me. I can’t always distinguish between male and female elephants, but look at that thing’s ding-dong,” Doug commented. “It’s bigger than my leg. It’s almost touching the ground. It must be in a really horny mood from all that rubbing.”Love Bullet looked at him with disgust.“Y-You got it wrong, lady. I’m no homo,” Doug quickly said, but she still kept shaking her head. “I’m telling you the truth. I used to have a daughter who’s half your age, you know.”“Stop talking, you fool,” Black Arrow scolded him. “Don’t fucking underestimate that mammoth. It’s a first-tier beast. Some of the first-tier beasts are really freaking strong. If we don’t fight it with everything we’ve got, then there’s no guarantee that we’ll win.”“What do you mean?” Doug snorted. “Boss King can take on that shitty elephant a

Jim opened his eyes. And the first thing he saw was Joker drinking some soft drinks and was also eating spicy chips that looked abnormally red.Seeing Jim wake up, Joker smiled with relief and put the chips packet forward. “Do you want some?”Jim took a few seconds to understand where he was, and then he pushed the chips packet away. “Don’t eat that trash. It looks like red dye 40 is mixed in it.”“So what?” Joker asked.“Why do you think kids have short attention spans these days?” Jim asked.“You mean…” Joker’s expression changed.“From the inability to concentrate or sit still or lacking patience or not having the sense of danger which is natural to humans…” Jim said. “You lose a lot of what gives you common sense just by eating those dyed-foods regularly, especially the ones coated with red dye 40. It’s mixed in many foods these days. And children eat these dyed foods and they also take a lot of sugar through soft drinks and sweets. No wonder they are getting ADHD symptoms. Sugar
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 252
Ever since Jim picked up the hero’s profession, a bounty was being placed on him on the third floor.That bounty increased a lot after Jim defeated strong villains like Nexa, Monmor, and Jeremy.It more than doubled when Jim challenged Barbosa and reached 5000 gold. However, after the lower floors were destroyed, Jim’s bounty once again doubled and reached 10,000 gold.More than half of the scouts came down just for Jim’s bounty and also Ronny’s bounty if possible. Ronny’s bounty was 1000 gold on the third floor.Even Joker had a bounty put on him on the third floor, though it was only 650 gold.“Whoever kills him gets all the gold!”“Screw that! Whoever gets his head will get all the gold!”Ten scouts rushed at Jim like hyenas attacking a lone lion. There was no fear in their eyes, as if they were certain about their victory. The thought of Jim being stronger than them didn’t even come to their minds as they were living on the third floor.However, it was safe to say that they didn’t
