At the stairs that led to the fourth floor of the Beast Dungeon, there were giant statues of warriors of the Beast Clan.An old man was taking the body measurements from everyone so that he could carve their statues for the future generations to see.When he was taking Jim’s measurements, Jim said, “This is pointless.”“Why do you say so?” the old man curiously asked.“This place will not last long,” Jim said, surprising the old man as well as Binnie who heard his words.“What makes you say that?” the old man asked again so he could get more information straight from the mouth of the horse.“You are old enough to understand my words, so I won’t repeat myself,” Jim said.“Is that so?” the old man stopped taking Jim’s measurements. “I’ll take your word for it then.”“If you have friends or family here, tell them to leave,” Jim said as he walked away.The old man looked at Binnie and smiled, “Freedom seems near.”Binnie gave him some money and then caught up to Jim and told him about Dou
Stanley drove to a private tower and reached the penthouse, where Tenzin was living.When he entered the hall, Tenzin was looking at the image of the man whose picture frame was fixed to the wall. This man was well dressed in a gray suit and was stylishly walking. “Look at his swag and grace, and his face… everything is perfect about him. He is the only one that has reached my standards. No, he even surpassed them. I don’t mind lowering myself if it’s for him. But the real question is… how do I get him to give up his wife and kids and then follow my tail?“Should I try killing his wife and kids? Should I kidnap them and then force him to submit himself to me? No, there’s no fun in living with a stressed man. I want him to freely be with me. But I just don’t know how to make him mine. Do you have any good ideas, Stanley?”Stanley looked at the man in the frame and shook his head. “I don’t get it, ma’am. That man is someone our entire brotherhood fears. How can you recklessly think of m
Bernard Williams reached the central police station to talk with the chief of police, but only the deputy chief was present there.Because Bernard was a supreme court lawyer, the deputy chief personally received him into his office.But there were no sofas in the office, so Bernard sat on the couch in the hall.“If you called me, I would have come to your house, no, sir?” the deputy chief said. “But anyway, what brought you here? It must be something very important.”“Oh, since it’s your dismissal letter,” Bernard handed him an envelope. “You are permanent relieved from your services.”The deputy chief forced out a smile thinking that the lawyer was joking, but after he enveloped and checked the document, it was personally signed by the governor. He was shocked and utterly confused. Why did the governor sign for his removal? He completely didn’t get it.“I can understand your situation,” Bernard said. “You were just doing what the governor said, weren’t you? But…that’s not why you are
This was probably one of the crappiest days Rena had experienced in a while, not counting the day when she and Jim were attacked by Stanley.Of course, the bout she had with the deputy chief had something to do with it, but more than that, when she went to her office, her boss Austin had already hired a new art designer to work in her place. And this woman just happened to be the same person that always criticized her works out of jealousy.Rena felt so stupid for working all night to bring something to the table today.Austin tried to explain to her, but she thanked him for opening her eyes and making it easier for her to quit the job as he removed her from the project because she was in a coma.She wasn’t hurt just because he appointed someone else as the head, but because he didn’t tell her about this when she called him the previous day. He might have thought that Rena wouldn’t come to the office for at least a few more days, but that excuse just wasn’t justifiable enough for Rena
Seemingly, the last floor of the Beast Dungeon was like an underground city, not in terms of the size but the sheer number of facilities that were available.There were hotels, inns, bars, restaurants, and so on.However, what shocked Jim and everyone was that most of the people living on the fourth floor were not humans. They were all reptilians who looked very scary, as if they can’t wait to mess with new humans.Then again, there were those that were smiling pleasantly.The humans they initially found on the fourth floor weren’t alone. They all had these reptilians latch onto their backs like how an adult would sit on another adult’s back. And these humans did not look healthy at all. They didn’t even seem to be in their right mind. They appeared weaker and worse than drug addicts because the reptilians sitting on their backs were leeching their energies continually.It seemed like every man was for themselves on this floor. After all, there were no human groups. In fact, Jim and o
The reptilian just leaped, and it moved so fast that Scarlet couldn’t even see her movement.Heath’s sensitive and sharp eyes were able to see its movements, but his body still wasn’t fast enough to react in time. He thought he’d lose Scarlet there and then, but the reptilian’s body froze midway.“Ah?” the reptilian looked baffled as to why it couldn’t move its body. It took a second to realize that Jim had used his power to stop its movement, though only for a couple of seconds.But that was more than enough for Scarlet and Heath to launch their attacks. Together, their thunderflame attack struck the reptilian, but his body was able to absorb it completely, shocking everyone there.“Thanks for the snack,” the reptilian evilly grinned. “Flames spread out, and lightning concentrates at one point. It created flames in one hand, and lightning in the other hand. “When you combine these two, what comes out is so destructive it’s beyond understanding.” It clapped its hands, creating blue fl
Doug and Ace were thinking of running away after Jim won the battle against the monstrous reptilian which had weird abilities.However, Jim asked the other reptilians that were watching from a distance. “Who else wants to fight?” His gaze was still sharp. He clearly meant his words and looked like someone who wouldn’t hesitate to destroy anyone that opposed him.One of the reptilians with an octopus face and a beard that looked like many tentacles, stepped forward and took out a small card. “This is your ticket to the fourth floor. If you keep heading forward, you’ll find stairs. Show this card, and the keeper will let you and your friends go upstairs.”Jim couldn’t trust the words of the reptilian, but he still talked with it. “So the condition to earn this ticket is to defeat one of the reptilians?”“No, there is no condition,” the reptilian said. “We give way to those we want to, and we block the way of those we want, too. That’s all. Nothing more. Nothing less.”“What made you giv
On the fourth floor of the Beast Dungeon.A one-eyed man was interrogating a vampiric woman with glowing brown eyes and large fangs. “Tell us that bastard’s location.” He cut her ears first, then fingers, and nose and so on, but that woman did not answer. He stabbed her shoulder, abdomen and more. Still, she didn’t answer.He grew tired of her and then stabbed her heart. She cursed him before losing her life.He wiped the blood off the blade with her skirt.“Lord Nero!” Just then, an underling came rushing over. “Jim the Hero is on his way to this floor. He’s climbing the stairs now along with all his friends. Not a single one died on the hidden floor.”“What?” Nero, the dungeon manager, frowned. The right half of his body was machine from head to toe. “He managed to move past the reptilians so fast?”Nero also known as Mr. Beast was the manager of the whole dungeon. He was the person who previously fought Jim by manipulation a man that was experimented with werewolf genes on the firs
