JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 265
Jim appeared more dangerous than the demons that dwell in the darkest depths of hell. His gaze was quite menacing, and Fancy Fatty felt shivers all over his body.Nevertheless, Fancy Fatty growled, “You think I’ll be afraid to fight you? I’m someone who’ll join the Beast Brotherhood one day! I can’t be losing my shit over a self-proclaimed hero!” He clenched his fist and threw a punch. “Dark Dominance!”Jim blocked the punch, but his forearm began to rot at the point of contact. “Tsk,” he jumped back.“What? Scared already?” Fancy Fatty snorted and leaped forth. “I haven’t even started getting serious yet. I may look like a useless eater, but I’m one of the strongest on the third floor, bitch.” He once again threw his punch, but this time, Jim blocked the punch with his vivre barrier, instead of directly contacting it.His barrier also grew corrupted and was broken to bits. Fancy Fatty’s fist once again struck him, but his punch landed on Jim’s chest this time.“Checkmate,” Fancy Fatt

A few minutes later.Jim was walking out of the laboratory and was muttering to himself, “In the book, he said that we can even hear other people’s thoughts, but I’m not yet able to do so. If I could, I wouldn’t need that fatty to tell me with his own mouth. I could have just read his thoughts.”[Yeah, you’re right, but you can’t learn everything at once.] Joe said. [Your mind and heart energy centers have awakened. So, it won’t be difficult for you to learn any skill related to them.]“You mean I can learn the thought-reading skill if I put my focus on it now?” Jim asked.[Yes.] Joe assuredly said. [From the cells in our bodies to the stars in the skies.. everything in existence produces sound in their own way. Sound can travel through any medium. People used the word ‘silence’ without fully being aware that the silence around them is not an objective experience but a very subjective experience. For instance, the air itself carries a lot of different sounds, and humans can’t hear all

In the colosseum on the third floor.“Love Ray!’ Lovelace destroyed half a dozen monsters by shooting red light bullets at them. “What’s with these sissy-ass monsters? Is there no one who can take some ‘love’ from me?”“What is one of the top villains doing in the colosseum?” some villains who were managing the colosseum complained. “If you fight, then we can’t supply enough people for you to destroy. We’ll soon run out of business!”“But I’m not leaving this place until my boredom is relieved!” Lovelace said and started drinking concentrated wine from a small bottle. She finished half of it and put it back in her pocket. “If nobody is willing to entertain me, then I’ll just destroy everyone in sight. Light Expansion!”A spherical shaped light released from her and spread all around the colosseum and affected all the people it touched. All of their bodies bubbled up and were blasted to bits and pieces.When their blood sprayed out and fell on the seats and colosseum walls, even the wa

As a group, Jim and others began to look around for Scarlet.First, they went to the location where a group called the Four Freakish Thieves lived. They were all butchers who lived in a dirty, bloody environment, working with the dead bodies of humans and animals like.They all didn’t answer any questions and instead attacked with their butcher knives.Electric Assassin stepped in first and unleashed his thunder punches onto them. They blocked his attacks with their blades and then cleaved the air with their cutting moves.Electric Assassin created an electric blast to block the attacks, but they still managed to cut through his defenses and then struck him. As a result, he was pushed back and found himself bleeding everywhere.“Why are you taking on all four of them by yourself?” Love Bullet pointed the gun at them and shot four times, sending bullets at all of them.“Pathetic tricks,” the four of them swatted the bullets away with their blades and rushed at her.“Don’t gang up on a

Jim felt a chill slither up his spine as he beheld an eye open on Cursed Doll’s forehead. It didn’t look like he was just imagining it.She released a burst of curse energy that came like a wave of dark shadow, completely sucking the life out of the grass on the ground as it traveled fast toward Jim.He immediately released golden energy out of his body, which not only shielded him from the cursed energy but even repelled it back.The cursed energy soon dispersed like vapor turning into thin air.Cursed Doll looked a bit befuddled. “W-What did you do? How did you stop my curse?”“You think I’d tell you how I did it? Don’t be silly,” Jim began to walk toward her. “However, I will tell you this much. It’s one thing to put on excess makeup, but it’s a whole different thing to put makeup on to look like a whole different person than what you really look like. Someone like you scrutinizes others but seldom examines themselves. As you are now, there’s no way for you to attain the power I h

A few minutes earlier.Nightmare_lily and Little Nightmare were dashing through the woods.“Why are we going there of all places?” Little Nightmare asked. “I don’t like vegetables and fruits.”“But that place will be peaceful right now,” Nightmare_lily said. “Just like you, most people on this floor don't prefer eating vegetables and fruits. So, they’ll avoid that building. Let us stay there and watch others fight among themselves. When they are done draining each other’s strength, that’s when we’ll step in and mess with them and grab all the gold they worked so hard to collect.”“Hahaha,” Little Nightmare laughed in excitement. “That’s your plan, huh. I like it. It’d be nice if we can get Jim this way, too.”“Mm…” Nightmare_lily also hoped that her little sister’s wish would also come true.Along the way, they came across some male villains. Some of them did not want to mess with Nightmare_lily and so went their way, but there were some who saw Little Nightmare as a handicap for Nigh
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 271
“Why the heck are they coming here?” Nightmare_lily was watching Jim and others fight the monster dogs.“We’re lucky, sis,” Little Nightmare excitedly said. “We can fight them and destroy them. The lawn around this building is perfect for fighting, too.”“Just shut up and wait here,” Nightmare_lily blurted. “Let’s see what happens for now. We’re sticking to our code. We won’t engage unless it’s necessary.”“Why are you still saying such things? Don’t tell me… you think that we won’t win against them?”“You idiot….” Nightmare_lily flicked her finger and hit her younger sister’s forehead. “Didn’t I tell you that no one can come to the third floor without Bloody Corpse’s permission? But look at them, there are seven of them. All of them are new faces. I’ve never heard of a group bigger than three coming to this floor before. I can understand if there were only three or even four of them, but seven? Nah, there’s definitely something bigger going on than what we’re aware of.” Nightmare_li
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 272
Little Nightmare happily squeezed Ace’s throat and loved seeing him make a painful expression.Joker was not able to shift between his transformations unless he spent at least one minute in every transformation, so he could only try to buy time by talking. “Don’t hurt him. He loves you.”“Huh?” Little Nightmare was a bit weirded out by his words. “What nonsense are you spouting?”“He always had a crush on you, Little Nightmare,” Joker added. “If you pull his pants down, you’ll see your name tattooed on his crotch.”“What the…” Little Nightmare’s eyes widened a bit. “Are you serious?” She then looked at Ace. “Is he telling the truth?”“Y-Yes,” Ace played along.Suddenly a knife came flying through the wall and pierced Joker’s shoulder. “Don’t listen to their crap, sis,” Nightmare_lily walked out of the kitchen, shocking Joker. “It’s been a while since we’ve met, Joker.”“L-Lily…” Joker was rather surprised to see her. “I should’ve known that you were the one helping Little Nightmare.”

AUTHOR'S EPISTLE
THANK YOU:: JIM IS HIM… is finished! Have you enjoyed it? I hope so. I definitely enjoyed writing it as it was challenging. It was supposed to be a 500 chapter long work, but I condensed it and finished it quickly. To all those who read every chapter and reached this page… you have my humble thanks. A big thanks to readers Lynn Casey, Mickey Ritch, and Liwhundebe Emmanuel for their precious votes. A special thanks to Rex Magnus for his lovely review. Much appreciated, Brother. CHARACTERS:: I hope you can take away some memorable characters from this novel. My favorite character is Jim, not because he’s the protagonist, but because he will give me food if I go to his restaurant with empty pockets more than once. He didn't have many friends growing up, but if you ask Shiney, she’ll tell you that he’s the kind you wouldn’t want to end your relationship with once you get to know him. Then again, Shiney might give you a different answer depending on the mood she’s in when you ask her.
EPILOGUE
Sometime later.Jim and Rena were on a mountain top, enjoying the view of the magnificent forest. Her belly was slightly swollen.A couple of birds flew by.“How do they find food?” Rena curiously asked.“God provides for them,” Jim said.“Yeah, but he doesn’t drop food in their nests, would he?” Rena retorted.“We work like buffaloes, and then buy food, cook it, and then put it in our mouths, chew it, and then our stomach has to digest it,” Jim said. “Just like us, birds also fly about to find grains, bugs, spiders, and… they can see from afar unlike us. They can see a tiny spider that’s dancing on its web under a tree shade from hundreds of meters away. So, yeah, God equipped them with enough skills so they can feed themselves even though they don’t live under a roof like us.”Just then, a brown Bentley arrived at the scene.John stepped out first and then opened the door for her. She got up and said, “Why don’t you also carry me over there because I can’t walk, you know.”“I was ju

Seeing Rena enter the kitchen, Jim also rushed in. He took the coupons from her and then kissed her hand.This was part of the deal, after all.The thing that she requested of him for being a waitress was that he would kiss a part of her body once every time she would enter the kitchen. And she was loving it now as Jim was coming up to her no matter where he was or whatever he was doing and was kissing her in unexpected ways and in unexpected places at times. Luckily, the kitchen was not open for view, or it would have been impossible to have these cuddling and kissing endeavors.As they were hugging, Rena noticed a little creature sneakily enter the kitchen. “I-I-It’s a rat!”“WHAT?” Jim was shocked and angered. How dare a rat enter his restaurant on the day he opened it? And that, too, in the middle of the day? “Where is it?”“I don’t know. It disappeared,” Rena looked around but couldn’t find it.“These things are smart. The moment they think they’re in danger, they freeze,” Jim co
CHAPTER 404
Two weeks passed since Jim revealed his ancestry to those of the Draknor Finance company.At Bob Shriner’s house.Bob had kidnapped a six-year-old girl and tied her to a chair. Wearing a clown mask, he was dancing around her chair to make her cry and feel the horror of it.After all, sacrificing after torturing the prey would bring best results for any dark path ritual, so Bob was very excited about it.After finishing his dance, he revealed his hidden knife and stabbed the girl’s head from the top. The knife went right through her skull and came down from the chin. He was grinning; however, a second later, he realized that not a single drop of blood spilled, and the little girl was grinning at him as if she was the predator and he was the prey.Bob quickly stumbled back. “W-Who the hell are you?”“She’s Systa,” a voice came from behind Bob, sending a chill down his spine because he couldn’t even sense the presence of this person. He turned back but didn’t recognize this man who was n
CHAPTER 403
A few days after Jim revealed himself to the chairman of Draknor Finance.In Draknor Finance headquarters.Lola was working alone in the cafe as Jim had told her to not hire any workers and that she must run the cafe by herself for the next four years.She was making sandwiches in the cafe, and she ended up cutting a bit of her finger while cutting tomatoes. And it made her cry from pain and then cry some more because of the hardships she was facing. As if that wasn’t enough, when she took the sandwich to the customer, he complained to her saying, “I asked you to mildly heat them in order to keep them soft. Why did you roast them this much?”“Sorry, sir. I’ll do well next time.”“Next time? You mean you want me to eat this shit right now?” The customer was none other than Joker from the Beast Dungeon.“T-That’s not shit, sir. It’s only roasted a little more than you asked for.”“So, now, you’re teaching me, a new client of this company, about food,” he hissed at her and threw the sand
CHAPTER 402
“If you want to keep working in this company, then you need to do two things,” Jim said, and Lola already found herself losing her posture. “First thing. Give me my restaurant back.”“Done,” Lola didn’t even hesitate to agree. “What’s the second one?”Jim smiled and said, “There are multiple cafes in this building. I want you to open a new cafe and work as the main cook there. You’ll be taking care of that shop for the next four years. And then I’ll take reviews from the employees. If you get a majority of good votes, then I’ll promote you to a financier level. Otherwise…”Lola was shaking in rage. “You want me to cook and sell food like you and your dad did? Go to hell! I’m never doing that!” she shouted and walked away in haste.Marc followed her, but he pleasantly smiled at Jim.Jim, however, didn’t even bat an eyelid.After Marc and Lola left the building, with the latter looking extremely humiliated, Jim turned to face Rena, “Was I too harsh?”Rena slightly shook her head. “She h
CHAPTER 401
Jim put his hand forward, and Steve gently held it and kissed it.Lola’s heart, brain, lungs, and many other organs seemed to be suddenly failing to work at this very instance. The mobile and handbag in Caylene’s hand dropped. Her dad tilted his head back in stupendous shock.Marc looked utterly dumbfounded.Tom and his dad and sister seemed supremely flummoxed.Austin, on the other hand, looked horrified. Elisha’s face also froze in a bit of horror.Rena was the only one who was able to move. “W-What is this, Jim?” She stepped forward. She knew who Steve was, so she looked at Steve. “Why are you bowing to my husband? What is this? Why did you call him Lord Jim?”“He’s from the line of kings, so how else would you want me to call him?” Steve replied, still kneeling even though it was hurting him to do that at his age.“F-From the line of Kings? Who? Jim?” Rena looked very confused.“I cannot speak more about the Lord while in his presence,” Steve added. “So, please forgive me for not
CHAPTER 400
On the ground floor, more than a dozen guards were lying on the floor. Some were still conscious but were in too much pain to get back.There were many people standing, but most of them were not even willing to step forward or get themselves involved in whatever was happening.Jim was still holding the broken arm of Austin who was crying blood at this point. Jim had defeated the guards while holding Austin’s arm. And this brought greater pain to Austin. The only reason he didn’t pass out from pain was because Jim bolstered his mind with psychic vivre so that he’d be able to endure it to an extent. Austin was not aware of this. Even though he was able to bear the pain, the pain was still there. He had to withstand the indescribable pain that throbbed all across his arm, especially near his elbow and shoulder.“Y-You monster…” Caylene couldn’t believe what had happened. She was not expecting Jim to defeat the guards so easily. “Just take some money and get lost from here.”“You can’t so
CHAPTER 399
Steve Millman was talking with someone on his mobile.“He is likely going to come to your office today,” Bernard was speaking from the other side.“Lord is?” Steve was startled. “Today?”“Treat him well. I’ll be sending you his photo, so don’t mess up, or you’re the only one who’s going to suffer, Steve,” Bernard said and ended the call.As Bernard waited, every second felt long.More than fifteen long seconds later, he received a notification. He saw the photo. “So, this is Jim Draknor. He looks to be barely thirty. No, he could be younger.” He gritted his teeth. “I have to bow to this brat?” His ego felt very hurt right now.He called someone on his mobile and said, “I sent you a picture. Find out his identity immediately.”“Yes, sir. Just give me a minute.”Steve stayed on the call, and then the person from the other side said, “Sir Steve, I found information on him. He used to be an ordinary chef, but only a day ago, his name has been spreading through the underground circles all
