JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 317
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
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 318
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
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 319
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
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 320
By the time Jim and others reached the fourth floor, it was about six o’clock in the evening.The fourth floor was not a big place. It looked like they were all inside of a giant cave.There were only rooms and huge corridors, and the ceiling was only forty feet high.Almost every room in sight was locked.“Is this really the fourth floor?” Doug wondered, clearly feeling anxious. “It feels more like the first floor, though there are multiple pathways to choose from. We didn’t come to the first floor, right?”His words made others feel tense, too.“This isn't the first floor,” Bald Brute said. “This is the fourth floor. I heard that from this floor onward, we don’t have to fight each other, and we should only focus on getting recruited. I was told that there’d be auction halls where you can sell yourself to the Eight clans of Beast Brotherhood. Or, there are fighting halls where you can fight the Rankers there and attract the attention of the brokers who’ll then help you fetch a greate
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 321
Jim and others entered the inn, which was the same inn where Demon Dwarf regularly visited.The humanoid lizard was the only person currently inside the inn. He was also the owner and the server.“Welcome to Lizard’s Inn, Mr. Jim,” the reptilian-like lizard of the inn owner said with a smile, though smiling wasn’t exactly their forte. In fact, the reptilians were incapable of displaying human emotions on a wide scale. For instance, they were incapable of blushing.At this point, nobody was surprised that this random innkeeper knew Jim’s name.Jim and others sat down at different armless chairs.“Do you want strong wine or strong food, or both?” the innkeeper asked.“Can we get anything in this place that isn’t adulterated with human flesh, blood, or feces?” Scarlet asked.“Hahaha,” the innkeeper laughed. “Everything in my inn is purely as it seems. There are no hidden things because I believe that being natural is the best. You don’t add or subtract anything from nature, and you’ll en
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 322
After spending some time in the inn, Jim and others moved on to other rooms.Most of the rooms were locked, so they had to pick the ones that were open. There were some people living in some of these rooms, having fun one way or another. There were those who lost themselves in alcohol, drugs, and sex. There were some that were playing games online.Did all these people also make it to the fourth floor? Jim didn’t know because neither Joker nor Scarlet or others in his team recognized any of these people.They came across some men in the corridor, but none of them seemed friendly. They didn’t say a word and just walked by.It was really weird the way these people acted. Something about them gave Jim the feeling that they were not in their right minds. It’s as if some part of their souls had been permanently damaged.Jim kept walking, and they soon reached the Auction Hall whose doors were wide open. The hall was almost 6000 sq ft in area, and there were more than a hundred people curre
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 323
The audience in the auction hall saw the old auction manager sweating and were astonished by it. How come the old man who was a veteran warrior who had endured many battles in his long life be afraid of such a young man?“Master Vince is sweating?”“He looks like he’s unable to move. What the hell is going on?”Many people in the audience didn’t even get what was happening.Nero, however, was analyzing what was happening with his machine eye. “He’s using his psychic vivre to put pressure on the opponent’s nerves. Because it is psychic vivre, it’s not easily perceivable. It can easily enter the body and affect the nerves and thus the brain. It can both soothe and terrify someone as per your wish. Vince probably took a while to realize that it was actually Jim’s psychic energy that is oppressing him. He’s definitely capable of fighting back against that level of oppressive mental energy, so why isn’t he fighting back?”Just then, Nero realized that Vince and Jim had their eyes locked.“
JIM IS HIM CHAPTER 324
Tenzin arrived at the meeting of the important personnel of the Eight Beast Tribes. All the Masters of tribes were present there, along with other important people.Many of them still didn’t completely think that White Maiden and Bloody Corpse were defeated.The Eight Beast Tribes were: Demona, Nimo, Cali, Jubilee, Lawless, Romane, Hunter, and Shriner.The Eight Beast Masters of the Eight Beast Tribes were: Serpent King of Demona tribe, Necro Knight of Nimo tribe, Wicked Heart of Cali tribe, Dark Shield of Jubilee tribe, Warmonger of Lawless tribe, Big Liar of Romane tribe, Black Sword of Hunter tribe, and Hell Mask of Shriner Tribe.“Not one but two immortals got done in by some brat,” Necro Knight snorted. His skin was pale as the moon, and his pupils were very small, which made him look scary. And he also had a staff made out of raven bones. “Those old bastards must have gotten weaker in the past few years.”“We don’t know if they’re still alive or not,” Big Liar said. He was obese

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
