Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 309
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

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

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

“Let’s say you fought us and then managed to kill us all,” Amaal put forward a scenario, “and then what? You think the world will be rid of evil? You do know that evil is not in the world but in the people, don’t you? It’s intrinsic to all of us.”“I’m not in the mood to listen to your crooked philosophies,” Benjamin uttered in a heavy voice. He was still in his werewolf form, with his body giving off argent vapors. “Get straight to the point. What do you want in return for freeing my wife?”Amaal faintly smiled. “You sure are impatient, but I can understand. You are young and hot-blooded, after all.”Benjamin raised his hand and showed his claws. The beasts behind him began growling madly.“Whoa, chill…” Amaal raised both of his hands, showing no intention of being hostile. “I’m fully willing to give your wife back to you, but let me be clear. I’m not putting forward a proposal not because I’m afraid of you but because I have a lot more to benefit from it.”“And what’s your proposal?

At Sciocidad, the hidden floating island, where the Wolfe clan members reside. At the border, Benjamin put Rebecca in Mina’s hands. Mina couldn’t believe how poor and unhealthy Rebecca’s condition was, but she was also happy that Benjamin made it back safely. However, Benjamin turned around and started walking away. “Where are you…” Mina’s heart started beating fast. Benjamin glanced over his shoulder. “Take care of her. I’m going to close my eyes soon.” “C-Close your eyes?” Mina was confused. “What’s that supposed to mean?” Benjamin jumped off the edge without answering her. Mina couldn't go after him because she had to deal with Rebecca first. Mina took Rebecca to the clan’s oldest healer, Galen the Silent Healer, who was also her aunt with an age of 119, and quickly explained to her the situation. “Her pulse is extremely weak,” Mina worriedly said. “I think we should move her into the Med Bed immediately.” “No, right now, what she needs the most is sleep, and she’s getting

“How are things with your family, brother?” Fiona asked.Selena raised an eyebrow. “You’re in a family that deals with real-estate, so you should already know how we’re doing.”“Haha, I do, but outside information can only be trusted so much,” Fiona responded. “Recently, we’ve worked hard on getting a marriage deal for Fiona. Her fiance owns a reputed sports agency that deals with covering all the popular international sports. He earns hundreds of millions every year, but his father is a tycoon in the alcohol industry. Their net worth is in tens of billions.”“Good for you and your daughter,” Jacob smiled.“By the way, Brother,” Fiona glanced at Veronica and Akash. “What does Veronica’s husband do?”Jacob’s expression slightly changed.Veronica frowned and looked at her mother who was looking back at her with a rather poker face.“He is staying at home for now,” Veronica said openly.“Pfft, he’s jobless?” Riley snorted. “Your taste is so bad, Veronica, not just in terms of finding a pa

CHAPTER 901
Benjamin went to the first floor and waited in the hall until Rebecca left her room.Then he went to her room. The door was locked, but he solidified his energy in the keyhole and opened the door.He entered the room quietly and saw the water bottle on the table next to her desk. It was half-full.Benjamin took out the vial and poured a drop of water into the bottle while saying ‘I love you, Rebecca.’He entered the bathroom and poured a couple of drops in the bathtub while once more uttering the three words ‘I love you, Rebecca.”He was about to come out of the room, but then he stopped and then ended up leaking another drop of water on the pillow, and another on the blanket. “I love you, Rebecca.”“Hopefully, this will help,” he thought.Benjamin then hurriedly left the room and then went to the rooftop. He mixed a few more drops in each of the four water tanks, while saying the words out, “I love you, Rebecca.”He looked at the vial.Three fourths of it was finished.He put the via

CHAPTER 900
Despite Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin living in separate rooms, there were many guest rooms still available in the mighty Sterling villa, the best property on Rachel Hill.So, the families of Jacob’s siblings stayed in those rooms without any issue.But the problem was with the cousins, who were trying to show off. They acted arrogant and haughty with Veronica and even mocked Rebecca for the little hair she had on her head, not even bothering to wonder why exactly her hair was like that.Rebecca didn’t even bother talking to them, or sparing a word with them because she knew how selfish and self-centered these people were.Jacob and Shawn might have forgiven these people, but Rebecca couldn’t just act like nothing ever happened.She didn’t treat them badly, either. She just ignored them and minded her business.However, her cousin sisters got their eyes on Benyamin who was quite good-looking. Her cousin brothers were also unable to avert their eyes from Rye.Rye looked more like an exotic f

CHAPTER 899
So many people started visiting Sterling villa ever since Selena herself had leaked the news of her buying a lot of land and buildings in Aurora Hills.Selena was sitting on the balcony, with Veronica next to her.“Why has the traffic increased so much?” Veronica said, “I’m seeing so many cars come and go recently.”Selena somewhat smiled and sipped on cream coffee. “I wasn’t born rich, Veronica. My relatives didn’t even let my parents into their homes or invite us to their functions because we were poor as church mice.”“Stop joking, Mom,” Veronica smirked with amusement. “You look like a million dollars. I’m sure our relatives’ sons back then would have wanted to marry you.”“You’re not entirely wrong, but they didn’t want to marry me as much as they wanted to mess with me,” Selena said. “I still remember one guy telling me, ‘I may look ugly as hell, but I can show you heaven in bed.’”Veronica went silent in shock. She didn’t think her mother’s beauty would have brought such terrib

Delle was bringing food, three varieties, on a big plate.Rye intercepted and took the plate from her. She brought it to Benjamin and sat by him under the tree.The grass was cool, even though the breeze was warm.“You think I haven’t noticed that you weren’t eating anything since you made that 40-day promise?” Rye said. “You were just acting like you’re eating.”She broke the bread mixed with fruit and brought it closer to his mouth.He didn’t open his mouth.“Do you want me to stop eating just like you are doing?” Rye said.Benjamin, who was staring into the distance, glanced at her. “Is it possible to love and hate at the same time?”Rye pursed her lips together, not quite understanding why he asked such a question. “I was angry with the things you did. I am still angry, but I don’t hate you. So, if you really love someone, I don’t think you can hate them.”“If there is no hatred in his heart, then how is Neel able to do this to me?” Benjamin asked, a hint of pain laced through his

CHAPTER 897
Rebecca and Benyamin had breakfast together.This nearly made Selena’s eyes bleed. She didn’t think she’d live a day like this.Watching them eating happily was like injecting poison into her body.While she loved seeing her daughter happy, she couldn’t spare any mercy on the man who tricked her daughter into marrying him.Even now, she was thinking in her heart, devising plans on how to separate her daughter and her husband.Having lost the mood to eat breakfast, she came to the backyard.Amber was preparing the background setting needed for the interview.“Where’s Kathy?” Selena asked.“S-She’s with Samuel Sehla, ma’am,” Amber hesitantly said.Selena’s gaze turned a little icy, but then she smiled. “I knew Kathy had it in her, but I didn’t think she’d be able to grab the attention of someone like Samuel Sehla.” She looked at Amber. “What about you?”“I-I don’t plan on grabbing anybody’s attention,” Amber quickly replied.“Tsk, tsk,” Selena shook her head. “Try to grab Benyamin’s att

The next morning.Rebecca came out of her room fast and reached the dorms just to check on Benyamin. She found him brushing his teeth with his finger. And he was using salt.“Don’t you have a brush and toothpaste?” Rebecca quickly asked. “You should have asked me then.”“No, I’m fine with this,” Benyamin replied. “The smell of the chemicals in the toothpaste just makes me feel nauseous, so I’m fine with just this sea salt.”“But… will salt be enough?”“It’s enough,” Benyamin gave a thumbs-up. “In fact, I’m worried about you because you’re using that chemical-ridden toothpaste which dullens your brain.”“If they dullen the brain, then why would they promote toothpastes so much on television?”“They will promote everything that will make them money while keeping the people sick, so that they will not be able to think clearly and would rather depend on the government to think for themselves,” Benyamin smiled.“That’s not funny,” Rebecca hissed. “I have to go and brush my teeth. And I’m f

Later that night.Benjamin was out in the garden, sitting under a tree, doing nothing as hours went by.“He’s been like that since dinner,” Rye was watching him from the first floor’s window. “It’s not good.”“What can I say?” Uzza was feeling heavy-hearted. “It feels like the story of Abel and Cain altogether, though in a different way. The brothers that represent the duality of current man. The devil sure knows how to mock us and make us angry. I’m certain now. It’s his plan. He put the sworn brothers against each other.”“But how did he get Shadow?” Rye frowned. “I don’t sense any demonic energy in him.”“Considering Shadow’s abilities, it’s easy for him to hide the demonic energy,” Uzza opined. “He’s a perfect place for demons to hide, though I don’t know how they got hold of him. He must have been caught by surprise. I just hope that this won’t lead to something disastrous.” She was looking at Benjamin. “The longer this goes, the more likely that someone among those is going to b

Veronica brought Akash with her to dinner. Almost everybody was present at the dinner table after a very long time.New tables were arranged because there were more people now.Veronica could see that Akash was not taking his eyes off Benyamin. “Why are you staring at him nonstop?” she asked in a low voice.“He’s tall, handsome, and so fair. Even his hands are so shiny. How’s that possible for a man?” Akash sounded quite envious. “Men are not supposed to look so good-looking, right?”“Mm…” Veronica looked at Benyamin and felt the same. “He does look like a million bucks, but he doesn’t seem to have much muscle on his body. What’s the point of being tall when you don’t have enough muscle? You only look like you have inadequate genes.”“Not every man can be built heavy like the men in your family.”“Haha, you’re right,” Veronica was proud of her brothers and dad because they were tall and big and good-looking. Their jaws alone would melt the gazes of many women, after all.Rye and Benjam
