Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 307
“Let me show a tip of the iceberg of evil that has taken its roots deep into our world.” Ryan gestured to Louis and Bella, telling them to walk through the opening in the wall. And they did, albeit tensely.They kept walking in that dark tunnel, where there was no light, but being the vampires, they were able to see very clearly.“It’s pretty silent here,” Bella said. “I don’t hear anything.”“Yeah, I also don’t—” as Louis was saying, a hideous creature that suddenly came running toward them. Louis and Bella felt paralyzed by its scream, but before it could reach them, Shadow sliced through its neck and decapitated it. Even though its head fell on the ground, it still kept moving slightly. The same was the case for its torso, which was still standing and aimlessly walking around. “W-What the hell is this ugly creature?” Louis’ heart rang in his ears.“A mixture of man and lizard,” Shadow replied, waving his daggers to get the blood off of them. “A chimera created through experiments.
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 308
Steve and Jane were sitting in a cafe, but Jane didn’t show much interest in coffee, as it wasn’t going down her throat easily. Ever since returning, Jane had been moody and barely spoke or smiled. She was someone who was always talkative like a monkey, so seeing her like this, Steve felt bad. He had already called her parents and told them they needed to return fast.Steve put his hand on Jane’s hand. He didn’t say a word to her, as he had already tried, and it didn’t help all that much.Jane didn’t cry like Veronica had for Rebecca, but she definitely felt sad for how things turned out. “Why was Rebecca the only one that had to be taken away? Hasn’t she suffered enough already?” she asked Steve. “From her college, she started earning, but she has never been free. I thought that after the party last night, she’d finally leave the Sterling villa and live with Benjamin somewhere else. But fate has been playing games with her. Even I made life difficult for her at some point…” she felt

With a swing of his energy sword, Benjamin vertically split the feathered serpent in half. The serpent still tried to reattach its body. He swung the sword again and released a shower of lightning needles that pierced the feathered serpent and stopped it from moving.“He paralyzed the feathered serpent?” Damian was astonished. “The basilisk and the indus worm are also wounded. That leaves only the behemoth and the mighty minotaur. Beating them won’t be any easier.”Benjamin sent his sword away as the minotaur lunged into the scene, swinging its club with the intent to send Benjamin flying to the ends of the world.Benjamin upped his speed and jumped and briefly sat upon the moving club. He leaped and jabbed the minotaur’s body with his lightning-shrouded fists.The minotaur’s flesh was so sturdy it withstood the fire explosion of the basilisk, so Damian wasn’t sure if mere fist attacks could injure the mighty minotaur; however, the minotaur coughed out blood as fists hammered its ches

The moonlight touched the moonless kingdom after many centuries, but the vampires couldn’t appreciate the view of the moon for long.Vampires liked cool conditions, but every vampire in the moonless kingdom currently experienced the hottest summer amplified by a hundred times.“What’s this insane pressure?”“I can’t breathe.”While being unable to breathe wouldn’t kill them, some felt like they were getting choked by the air molecules all around them. Even the capable adults felt goosebumps all over. Their hearts trembled at the invisible aura that oppressed them.Sasha was shivering in bed. “What’s going on? My arms and legs are trembling like they have frostbite. My heart… it’s banging hard.”Amaal, who was watching from a distance, felt unsettled. “My heart is thumping against my will. Me, who has lived over a century and has gone through countless crazy ordeals… is feeling anxious now? This brat is the second person who made me feel this way.” He grinned rather angrily.Brad blew
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 311
The sun’s light was golden, warm, drying, preservative, and antiseptic, which was why the vampires weren’t fans of it. However, the moon’s light was silver, cool, moist, putrefying, and septic, which was why the vampires loved it. Their dark powers worked perfectly under the moon.While the moon’s energy was used to stir up a werewolf’s blood and make it easier to transform, their powers were not septic or putrefying like those of vampires. For instance, a vampire’s bite could kill a human, but a werewolf’s bite wasn’t poisonous. This was because moonlight only acted as a activator or a catalyst to boost up the power of werewolves, but the resulting powers were far different from the properties of typical moonlight. Down the years, some tried to imitate this ancient alchemical formula that had given birth to the werewolves, but it backfired and resulted in vampires whose powers were more on the darker side. There were plenty of reasons for failures, starting from the usage of a bat’s

Damian leaped at Brad, thrusting the sword. “I will send you to your grave today!”“Great,” Brad jumped back and flew out through the glass window. “What you’re doing is treason. You’re giving me a big reason to kill you.”“Kill me if you can!” Damian also flew out and sent a twisting pillar of fire shooting at Brad. “Celestial Flame Coil!”It came so fast Brad barely had any time to dodge. He was forced to block the flaming serpent before it bit his head off. “Krgh!” the flames began melting his claws and body. The attack was much more powerful than he thought. “Necrotic Breath!” He blasted a cold, putrefying wave that weakened the flaming serpent enough for him to push it away.By then, Damian was upon him again. The white flaming sword came right at Brad’s heart. “Celestial Flame Shock!” It pierced his body, but not where Damian had aimed. He went for the heart but missed it by a couple of inches. Brad still coughed out blood as the flames burned his internal organs.Brad was force

Amaal snapped his fingers. A few bats flew into the scene, picked Damian up and flew away toward the dungeon behind the palace.In one of the rooms in the palace, Rebecca was still awake, but the pain in her face and shin made it hard for her to sit in place. She kept moving, and she couldn’t even touch her cheek that was burnt by the candle-flame. The maids enjoyed watching her struggle.Seeing them laugh, Rebecca yelled in fury. “How can you monsters exist?” she still couldn’t believe that vampires were so real and also how cruel they were. “What are the governments doing?”Amaal flew into the room, with his hands on his back. “Governments…” His wings retracted back into his body. “If those big organizations are even remotely good, there wouldn’t be beggars roaming the streets.” He squatted down before her. “You look like you come from a rich family. When was the last time you helped a homeless man?”Rebecca couldn’t even think about his question because he looked so scary. Even tho
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 314
Thirty-nine days later.Amaal came to see his son in the dark cold dungeon.Damian was still very much alive; he glared at his dad, hissing, and baring his fangs.“You’re still very much aware of your surroundings,” Amaal smiled, standing outside the cold metal cage. “That’s the benefit we have as vampires, especially as pureblood vampires. We can go without food or even blood for much longer times.“One of the women you brought here, Rebecca, also didn’t eat anything ever since she was locked up. Well, it was us who didn’t feed her, and she started hallucinating and seeing things recently. She’s very close to going mad, and then I’ll have my way with her, but… if you’re willing to do it, I’ll give that chance to you. Will you redeem yourself by impregnating her?”Damian spat at him, but his mouth was so dry, no spit came out.“So, you still haven’t learned your lesson. That’s fine. I’ll let you rot here a few more days, and then you’ll begin to go crazy, too, in this darkness,” Amaal
