Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 413
Dahlia and Akira were dashing through the woods. They had to take a different route as a horde of flying beasts had blocked their way, forcing them to go through the network of underground tunnels before ending up somewhere farther from the floating city. So they had to rush at full speed to try and get to the destination as soon as possible.Along the way they came across a foggy zone where the great crude oil river was flowing through the forest. It was a highly toxic zone for normal people because the evaporated oil filled the air with all kinds of harmful chemicals.Dahlia and Akira’s skin started getting rashes, but then Dahlia released her spiritual energy and covered both of them. Not only did this energy shield them from the toxic gasses, it also healed them. Akira was amazed by it, especially because she thought that Dahlia’s spiritual energy could only kill the vampires. Now, she wondered if the intention of the user had more to do with how the spiritual energy affected othe

Inside the shadow world.Amaal’s body was riddled with dozens of shadowy spears, but that still didn’t erase the evil smile on his face.He raised his hand, extending his fingers like roots and tried to trap Shadow in them. “I’ve killed countless humans with these soul-sucking fingers of mine,” he proudly shouted. “I personally don’t like human meat as much as I like human blood, I still make sure to send all the wasted human meat to the world within the ice wall so that it would get mixed in the fast food. All the humans eat those delicious hamburgers, without having a clue what’s actually mixed in them.”“Sick bastards like you deserve the worst kind of death!” Shadow raised his hand and repelled the roots with his dark energy, and then pulled Amaal with the same hand, startling him.Amaal, however, didn’t resist and flew toward Shadow, smiling so happily. “As long as you disguise something with comedy, the common people would eat it all without a worry in the world.” Shadow’s claws

Shadow’s nails dug into Molly’s heart, making her cough blood.She couldn’t move. (Shit. The damn king distracted me, and I let my guard down. Is this the end?) She could feel her life itself getting squeezed into nothing as Shadow firmly pressed her heart.But then Shadow suddenly jumped away because he had to dodge Amaal’s attack.“Dammit,” Shadow’s hand was still trembling. He looked at Molly who was now down on one of her knees, with thick blood hanging from chin. “What’s your damn armor made out of? It’s affected my control over my nerves, and I couldn’t squeeze your heart fast.”“It’s made from an experiment done on skystone,” Amaal replied. “It robs people of their oxygen.”“No wonder my muscles felt sore,” Shadow looked surprised. “Wait, doesn’t that mean she also can’t breathe freely because she’s wearing that armor?”“Yes, but vampires don’t have to breathe to live, so she’s gotten used to wearing it,” Amaal said. “That’s why she’s managed to reach the second rank among the

Despite the mishap, Shadow managed to pull Mina into the ground.But the damage was done. Mina had suffered a nasty wound to her waist. To make it worse, her body started corroding, starting from the wound.“I’m sorry,” Shadow clenched his fist in regret. If he hadn’t forcibly pulled Mina down, thereby negating her momentum, she might have been able to escape from that attack. It was because he was holding her arm, she couldn’t move away.“This much is nothing,” Mina tried to look strong, even though her bowels were all in a mess. “Don’t worry about me, and stall that monster until Benjamin is freed. Only you can do that.”Shadow poured some of his spiritual energy into Mina’s wound so that it would stop the wound from worsening.“Directed energy attack…” Shadow had a deep frown on his face as he looked at the awful. “This is worse than a laser attack. This can burn brick and metal to toast. I’ve never seen a vampire use flames to this degree. To be able to create this inside my shado

Shadow’s mind turned foggy as he took on an explosion head on. He felt like he was losing consciousness, which could be worse considering that he was alone.He crashed down on his back.“Bring him to me,” Amaal ordered.Out of the three subordinate vampires, only Brad was still able to move because the impact had also taken a lot of toll on their bodies.“Can I taste his blood, Your Majesty?” Brad asked while scuttling toward Shadow.“You can have one liter,” Amaal said, “but no more.”Brad’s eyes glowed yellow as he licked his lips. As a clone of the life leecher, he was perfectly capable of sucking not just blood but also people’s lifespan. He was planning to do just that even though he was only given permission to drink one liter of blood.As he was preparing to suck Shadow’s life, he suddenly felt losing grip on his own mind.“Do what you’re told,” Amaal’s voice rang in his mind, and Brad couldn’t resist the command.(This is…) Brad was startled. (Part of the Hive Mind that the ki

“Why do people fall in love?” Amaal asked as he defended himself from Shadow and Dahlia’s attacks with twin swords that he made out of his blood. “Is it because they’re fed with stupid movies, novels and magazines from a young age that glorifies sex while objectifying the people, or is it because love comes organically out of them? Tell me. How did you two fall in love? Did you follow the foolish trends of society, or were you able to think and act on your own?”Even though he asked them a question, they kept attacking him with their punches and kicks. Shadow was still yet to completely recover from the internal damage that he had received, but he was supporting Dahlia so that they could keep Amaal on the back foot.“Why aren’t you answering my question?” Amaal asked. “I genuinely want to know what love means. Do you need to have a certain number of traits to be successful at love, or do you just go with the flow of your heart? What makes you two look at each other with eyes full of l

As Brad and the three knights mercilessly attacked an old, injured Mina, she didn’t give up but kept fighting with the intent of not giving up until her last breath.A dark-cloaked woman flew into the scene and kicked both of the knights in their waists and sent them flying. She also caught Brad’s face and smashed his face down to the foggy ground, which kept biting his skin, but he rotated his torso 180 degrees and kicked her chin, forcing her back. He quickly got up to his feet and rearranged his head and glared at this mysterious person. “Who are you? No, it doesn’t matter who you are.” He clawed at her, but all he hit was vapor. “This is…”Akira appeared behind him, thrust her hand into his back and pulled his heart out.Brad turned his head around. Blood concentrated near his open mouth and shot forth at Akira like a laser.Akria reacted fast and moved away, but still, a third of her mask and hood were burnt, revealing just a part of the left side of her face. “Why aren’t you dea

In appearance, Amaal was over ten meters tall and looked like a gorgon beast, in that he was extremely macabre and repugnant to look at.He had a great opportunity to craft a successful surprise attack and finish off Dahlia, and he acted on it without hesitation, but perhaps he got a bit too greedy in thinking, he ended up making a hissing noise as he brought his massive head out of the portal from behind Dahlia.The noise he made unintentionally was like that of the hissing of a fully-grown king cobra. It brought a shivering to Dahlia’s veins, and she couldn’t move. Her body froze against her will even though she realized in that instance that Amaal was right behind her. She thought she was a goner, but Shadow’s lightning fist pounded into Amaal’s jaw, breaking his jaw and many of his teeth and also disfiguring the whole face.Amaal’s body completely came out of the portal and flew into the distance, but he landed on his feet and completely recovered his lost teeth and fixed his jaw
