VKBoyI've finally finished the penultimate arc! The final arc will have battles, too, but in a completely different manner. Will the son-in-law return with full force, or does he have other plans? Only time shall tell. I couldn't thank readers like Liwhundebe Emmanuel, Edwards Bocarvy, Dewaarta, and Balogun Morenikeji Olalekan the last time, as I can't thank everyone by name in here. I'm going to write a proper thank you note for all the names I notice in the rankings at the end of the novel, and please don't feel bad if you don't see your name. Cheers.

A few days later.On Sciocidad, everybody in the clan attended Mina’s funeral. However, no funeral was conducted for the eight saints for nobody was sure if they died or were just taken away.New saints were chosen by a special method. All the chosen ones were young children who would eventually be groomed into saints, who would then hold more power than the elders and a little less power than the sovereign.After Rye gifted the newly chosen saints with clothes and tools, a clan meeting took place. All the elders and significant members of the clan gathered to discuss the future. Everybody expressed their opinions without hesitation.“Now that the vampire king has died, the lizards are growing restless in their pursuit for doomsday,” one man named Brooks said passionately after getting up from his seat. “They are kidnapping people and are seizing their bodies. We can’t let them keep doing this, or all the top, influential positions around the world will be filled to the brim with thos

Rye was faster than lightning itself. She went all out from the very beginning by imbuing red lightning into her leg.Ryan cross-blocked the kick with visible effort. “Going for the face of an elder, you’re quite rude, Rye.”“I don’t want to hear that from someone who doesn’t try to understand my feelings!” Rye spun in midair and went for Ryan’s midsection with an axing kick.Ryan blocked her skin with his right elbow before it struck his waist. The class of their spiritual energies didn’t destroy the environment around them but actually promoted the growth of the plant life, for both Rye and Ryan’s hearts were being driven by positive thoughts, despite how they tried to oppose each other.Rye kept her distance close and targeted his fists, wanting to make the soil in his hands spill to the ground no matter what.Ryan sucked in a deep breath and formed white spheres around his fists. These spheres not only helped Ryan defend from Rye but also be on the offense.Rye’s movements were li

Everybody on Sciocidad was in a joyful mood after Benjamin returned. A messenger bird was already sent to deliver the message to Shadow. This was not a living bird but a robotic bird driven by wind and electricity, which was generally also used as children’s toys.A trial was soon conducted on Benjamin, with the jurors being Ryan, Galen, and ten more elders. Being the current ruler, Rye herself was the judge.Rye was reading the document prepared by the scholars of the clansmen. “You were given the authority to sit on this throne and rule the people, which you did for a little while, and then you ran away from the sight of your people and didn’t return even after six months had passed. Do you have anything to say about it?”“I’m guilty about it,” Benjamin replied.“Aren’t you going to argue your own case?” Rye asked because there was no such thing as lawyers on Sciocidad. Every adult had to defend themselves in court. So, Rye didn’t like how Russell just agreed to being guilty without

An old lady entered a luxury watch store. She was in her pajamas and was carrying a small handbag strapped to her chest.The moment she entered, she received negative looks from the workers. “Grandma, where do you think you’re coming?” a female worker asked her.“I want to buy a watch, young one,” the old lady who seemed to be in her eighties said. “No, I want to buy two watches. One for my son, and another for his to-be wife.” She was about to sit in a chair.“Wait, don’t sit,” the worker quickly came past the desk and grabbed her arm. “You need to go out.”“Why?” The old lady seemed a little confused.“There’s nothing here that you can buy,” the worker exerted some force and pulled the old lady away. “If you want to buy watches for your son and daughter-in-law, then you should find a roadside mobile vehicle that sells cheap watches that look like the real ones. That’s going to make your son and daughter-in-law happy, I’m sure.”“But I can afford the watches in this store, young one,

Veronica rolled to her left and then to her right. She covered her ears with the pillow and squeezed it against her head, trying her best to sleep, but Akash’s snoring was being quite a bit of a nuisance to her.The noisy vibration just wasn’t letting her sleep.After struggling for a while, Veronica took her pillow and walked out of the room. She went straight to Rebecca’s room because she was used to sleeping with her sometimes, whenever she felt lonely in the past.However, when she entered the room, she was surprised to see Rebecca sleeping next to a pair of clothes. “That gray suit…” Veronica’s expressions changed because she remembered that the suit belonged to Benjamin. Did her sister miss him so much she was not able to sleep without feeling his presence next to her. (Did you love him that much, sis?) She pursed her lips.Compared to her sister, she felt that her love lacked very much. After all, she couldn’t even put up with Akash’s snoring, and she didn’t even try to attempt

Akash woke up almost half-an-hour after Veronica had done her mischievous act. He didn’t realize right away that there was something in his mouth, but he couldn’t move his jaw. And it made him pull the thing that was in his mouth.He thought it was a piece of cloth at first, but then he soon saw what it was. He immediately looked at Veronica, shocked, but she was sleeping like a baby.How did this purple underwear come into his mouth? Did he do it? Did she do it? Did they do it together? He didn’t remember anything. He didn’t remember drinking alcohol last night, so he wasn’t sure what exactly happened, or how exactly, a woman’s underwear ended up in his mouth.Veronica’s wardrobe was bigger than her room itself, so he couldn’t tell if this purple underwear belonged to her or not. But who else could it belong to? He thought.“Maybe, she put it in my mouth to tell me something without saying it…” his expression suddenly changed because he wondered if Veronica was currently wearing unde

A few months ago. Rebecca came to Rye’s Pizzas in the evening, and she took Benjamin in her red Porsche. “Don’t wear sunglasses, ma’am, they’re not good for your health,” Benjamin said, sitting in the back because she wouldn’t usually let him sit next to her. “Don’t I look cool when I’m wearing them?” Rebecca asked. “Yes, but… you wouldn’t want to harm your health just to look good, would you?” he asked. “Your sister eats whatever she wants, but you think three times before putting a spoonful of ice cream in your mouth. Why is that?” “Because sugar is very bad for you,” Rebecca answered quickly and proudly. “I get my natural sugar from fruits, so I avoid junk food, especially ones that are addictive.” “That’s right. You used discretion there and stayed off from bad sugar products. Sunglasses fall in the same category. They are bad for your eyes. And anything that’s bad for the eyes is bad for the whole body.” Rebecca paused for a second. “So you're telling me, I shouldn’t wear s

A couple of days later.Something felt good as Veronica opened her eyes in the morning, thinking Akash was up to something naughty again, but she found Roja massaging her legs. She immediately sat up. “W-What are you doing?” her legs and feet were completely covered in thick oil, which offended and grossed her out.“I’m helping the blood flow all over your body,” Roja said. “A good foot massage will heal the whole body. Castor oil massage is especially good for health.”Veronica, however, couldn’t understand a single word Roja said. “No. I don’t need you to massage me!” She got up from her bed, but the moment she put her foot down, she slipped and fell back on the bed. “Kyaa! I thought I was gonna die! Just how much oil did you apply on my feet!” she fumed at Roja.“I-I’m sorry,” Roja apologized and then tried to wipe Veronica’s feet clean with a towel, but Veronica didn’t let her.“You’ve done enough!” she pulled her legs away. “Just leave!” she waved her hand, demanding Roja to leav
