Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 421
“Benjamin is here. Benjamin is there. Benjamin is everywhere, says Rebecca,” Elizabeth was frustrated as she helped her husband get down the stairs. “I can't help but agree with her. He used to help us with cooking, cleaning, and everything. Now, he’s not here, and the maids are very slow compared to him. Even though they take salaries, they work slower than Benjamin who didn’t take any salary. They don’t take insults like him, either. Truly, we lost a valuable slave.”“He’s Ryan’s son, Elizabeth,” Shawn commented. “Why do you still think he’s a slave? If he wanted, he could have had all of us as his slaves.”Elizabeth’s heart skipped for a second, but she snorted. “Hmph, I seriously don’t think Benj-fucking-min is the old-stinkin’ Ryan’s son. He must be playing some kind of trick to fool us or something. You know what, your mom has found someone who’s really fitting for Rebecca.”“Oh, who?” Shawn was interested.“I don’t remember his name, but he acted in a couple of movies that your
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 422
In the morning, Rebecca was staring toward the south. Seeing the roses and jasmines in the backyard, she remembered the times when Benjamin tried giving her stalks of roses or bouquet of jasmines or red flowers and told her to suck honey out of them. There was a time when a rose thorn had pierced her foot, and Benjamin came rushing to help her. The thorn entered deep into her flesh, and it hurt quite a bit. Rebecca hissed in pain. Benjamin was about to use his mouth to bite her flesh and suck the thorn out, but Rebecca didn’t let him use his mouth. So, Benjamin had to use his nails to pinch her flesh and force the nail out. He said he’d carry her to her room, but Rebecca walked off on her own. She didn’t even remember thanking him at that time. One night, Rebecca went to the rooftop to enjoy the night’s breeze. Benjamin came running to her, saying someone was attacking him because he married her. “Attacking you?” she asked him. “Is it my mom again?” Benjamin, however, pointed at th

Brad and the two knights together kept attacking Akira ruthlessly. If not for Brad’s Vapor Walk, he wouldn’t even have been able to properly land a hit on Akira. Because he was capable of putting pressure on her, the other two knights took advantage of this and kept pressuring Akira, not giving her any time to fight back.When Brad managed to grab her black cloak, a part of it turned into a bat and bit on him, startling him, forcing him to let go of the cloak.“This…” Brad looked shocked. “It can’t be… Why do you have the cloak that belonged to ‘that’ man? There’s no way you could have stolen it from him.”“When I ran away from him, I took this,” Akira said. The destroyed part of her cloak regenerated itself, but the destroyed part of her mask didn’t.Brad frowned because as far as he knew, this cloak was gifted to Amaal’s brother-in-law in the past by Amaal’s father. Only the royals who were eligible to sit on the throne were even allowed to touch it, much less wear it. “I am going t

Brad laughed like a beast as black blood spilled on his face and one of Akira’s arms fell off. “This is what happens when you fight those who are out of your league! Only death awaits you!” He squeezed her wounded shoulder and tortured her some more.Akira kept howling in pain. Mina raised her forearm and stuck it between Akira’s teeth. A vampire’s instincts automatically made Akira’s teeth dig into the old woman’s teeth.Brad immediately tried to pull Mina’s arm out, but it didn’t come. Akira had dug her fangs deep into the arm, after all.Bart quickly stomped on top of Mina’s abdomen to crush the old woman as well as Akira’s legs that were under Mina at this moment.Mina coughed blood, and an unimaginable pain gripped her head. Her abdomen was already half missing, but now Brad had just torn off the rest of the stomach, so her body split off from below her diaphragm. The shock was too much, and her eyes almost completely turned white. Moreover, Akira was still sucking the blood from

Shadow swiveled and cleaved through the portal, but it was Molly that he struck. She blocked his sword with a shield, but still lost the shield as well as the arm that held the shield.Shadow was startled to see Molly when he was expecting Amaal. In that fraction of a second when he was piecing things together, Amaal shapeshifted back into his original form and attacked from behind and bit on Shadow’s neck.He didn’t drink Shadow’s blood because he had no idea what would happen to him if he were to drink when Shadow was releasing black lightning. Nevertheless, the deadly bite proved highly poisonous.Like a rat that would convulse at a king cobra’s bite, Shadow also lost the ability to control his motory functions and collapsed on the ground and began to convulse.“My venom is stronger enough to neutralize even dragons,” Amaal proudly said. “Your neurons are slowly going to rot from the poison. The parasites in the position will slowly take over your brain. Once you’re weakened both p
Savvy Son-in-law CHAPTER 426
With the shadow realm gone, Amaal could freely express his power. His Blood Field completely covered the floating kingdom. The orcs and goblins working there felt their blood vessels pop; and they bled from their eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and every orifice in their body as they pathetically collapsed and died in a matter of seconds.Even the human captives suffered a similar fate. Thousands upon thousands died in a similar fashion, unable to withstand the immense pressure put by the king’s blood field.The lower level vampires also went crazy and felt like blowing their own heads off so they could escape from the pain that had gripped their souls. Even for the strong vampires, it was terrifying to say the least.As seconds passed, the Blood Field only strengthened significantly as more and more blood was drained from the bodies of the dead goblins, orcs, humans alike, leaving nothing but a bag of bones behind.Damian’s knees were also shaking. He had to assume a horse stance to be able

A minute earlier.Inside the Oroboros’ body.Damian, Shadow, Molly, and Amaal were all forcibly sent all the way to the stomach of the giant snake. It was a miles long journey with extreme pressure put on their bodies from every direction. If it was anybody else, they would have been turned into a pulp due to the pressure before even getting to the stomach.The gastric juices inside its mighty snake’s stomach burned their skin, producing vapors. And there was a natural pull toward the small intestines that were right behind its stomach.Amaal and Molly swam toward the head of the snake without much of an effort, but Damian, who was carrying Shadow, had to struggle.But then Damian saw that Amaal and Molly were waiting for him at the beginning of the stomach, where the snake’s vertebrae were.Damian turned around and started swimming the other way.“H-He’s going the other way!” Molly couldn’t believe it. “Let’s go after him, Your Majesty!”Amaal frowned. “You want me to go out through

As Rye kept cutting the Oroboros’ tail repeatedly, she realized one thing. The new tail that kept sprouting was sturdier than the previous one. This made her life very difficult. She had to use her spiritual energy to cut what was probably the softest part in the snake’s outer body, and yet it wasn’t of much use.Just as Rye was growing tired of it, the snake did not regenerate its tail anymore.“Mm? Did it run out of gas finally?” she wondered, but then she could see the slight vibrations and jerks in its body. “Something isn’t right. These are not natural responses of the body.” The snake reacted as if someone was giving it external or internal stimuli. “Don’t tell me…” she brought her hand closer to the skin of the snake and felt a repulsive energy that made her want to back off. “Poison… Is it secreting poison through the skin?” She had to back away some more because the poison was mixing in the air. A normal person might not be able to see it, but she could if she were to focus o
