The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 103
“Sentient trap formations…”Most people would have felt threatened, but Myles got excited. If he had his powers, passing through these traps would have been a piece of cake, but with his current condition, where one of his legs were compromised, he was not in a position where he should feel confident about taking this challenge.Nevertheless, Myles didn’t give up.He stood there and kept touching the walls to see if there was any way to deactivate the trap. However, he didn’t find anything. He then observed the third step and noticed if it was any different from the first and two. He couldn’t help but notice a thin horizontal line along the edge, which was obscure because of the dried blood. He looked at the upper stairs, and some of them had this same pattern.“I think I found the clues they left, but it seems I have to go through this horror… with a broken foot, nonetheless.”“The traps will activate if I cross. The only way I can get across without getting hurt is to be fast enough
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 104
Even though the skeletal figure draped in tattered rags never physically touched Myles, he felt like his face itself was being eaten away and his breath getting robbed.This couldn’t be an illusion. He wasn’t just seeing things. This wrath-like monster was real!Myles didn’t know what to do. The pulling force was beyond what he could resist, so he used the momentum to his advantage and went in for a headbutt.BAM!A cracking noise echoed as the monster’s skull broke. It screamed in a terrifying, soul-trembling vocal.Myles’ forehead also bled, but he didn’t stop. Even though everything was hazy, he knew where his sword was. He unsheathed it and swiped it with all he got. The blade cleaved through the rags and the bony neck of the monster, decapitating it in the process.The head fell and rolled.He slashed his sword again and cut through the rags and bones of its torso as swiftly as his arms allowed him to move. He couldn’t keep going for long because of the wounds in his foot and hea
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 105
Uttering the heavenly heart mantra was the only thing Myles could do, but the silver-gray monster didn’t make it any easier for him as the millions of nanobots kept eating his body away.The concept of the heavenly heart mantra was to wholly submit oneself to the most supreme and eternal being of all worlds who was beyond time, space, and matter. In return, the heart would gain the power over the mind and the body and help make godly decisions.Myles didn’t hurry with the mantra. He recited it at a regular pace without thinking about his death. Whether it was his fearlessness, or his unwillingness to submit to the enemy before him even in the face of death, something opened the door for spiritual power to pour into him and dominated the spiritual seal like a lion choking on a deer.Myles felt his power returning very fast. It was almost instantaneous.“Burn,” he uttered.The millions of nanobots that were eating his body away got caught on flames and perished. The flames spread to the

“We shouldn’t have entered the dungeon without Myles,” Justin said. “It’s too risky out here.”“We don’t even know where he is,” Casey quickly replied. “It’s been more than seven days since we last saw him.”“Yes, but…”Justin and others weren’t told that Myles had entered the dungeon even though they had asked the dungeon guards about it because the guards received orders from the vice-warden to keep their mouths shut about Myles entering the dungeon.“We don’t need Myles because we have a map this time,” Kong blurted. “As long as we follow the path, we’ll come across slimes.”“They said slimes were the perfect targets to practice as they’re slow,” Biskie voiced her mind as she tried to use her ability to see in the dark. “I wonder if I can punch a slime and hurt it.”“Only your stupid brain will underestimate slimes,” Casey snorted. “The slimes may have awakened ones, which might pose a great threat if we aren’t careful.”“Who are you calling stupid?” Biskie glared at Casey who quic

Justin and everyone else was horrified when they saw so much blood pour out of Casey’s split-up chest. Her eyes whitened instantly, and she pathetically fell back.Biskie got so horrified, she almost managed to scream her way out of her frozen self. But Kong didn’t need to scream. He somehow managed to break free from his frozen state and immediately caught the face of the kobold with the knife and viciously threw it toward the slinging kobold. He then rushed and speared Ria with his shoulder, thereby freeing her.Ria was pushed forward; she used the momentum to her advantage and tore her way through the kobold with the staff, cutting its staff and head into pieces with her claws. She didn’t stop there. She swiveled toward the remaining two kobolds, and her arm alone turned into a wing. She waved her arm, shooting half-dozen feathers that darted deep into the kobolds’ neck and breaking their windpipes and knocking them unconscious. Kong went and repeatedly punched their heads and brok

Seeing Casey get healed so fast, Biskie covered her mouth in shock. (How’s this possible? What was that item? What did it do?)Because Casey’s wounds were healed, her bare chest was up for view. Justin took his shirt off and gave it to Casey. She thanked him and then immediately hugged Myles and cried.“You saved me again. I don’t know how to thank you. I owe you my life.”“How can I let my team members die right before my eyes?” Myles spoke back and stood. With a flick of his wrist, he took a knuckle duster out and walked up to Kong. “I know you’ve done bad things, but none of us are perfect. I hope you’ll put this power to good use.” He placed the knuckle duster in Kong’s palm.Kong could feel an ethereal power pleasantly sting his body. It wasn’t oppressive but soothing. He wore the knuckle duster on his hand, and it glowed and merged with his hand.Kong instinctively punched the wall, and the whole neighborhood started shaking, and they had to run away from there before the ceilin
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 109
Almost two miles deep into the dungeon, Justin and others were practicing their skills on the slimes.Annoyed by the presence of the humans, the slimes creeped over at their own slow pace, which helped Justin to use their abilities.Casey cut through the slimes with her hair and even went overboard at times, as her ability was hard to control. However, just cutting didn’t kill the slimes. They were able to reattach themselves and keep attacking.Kong punched the slimes and split them into thousands of pieces which made it all the more difficult for them to reattach their bodies.Biskie put her regular dagger to use, as she couldn’t use the divine dagger yet. Even though she had tried calling the divine dagger, it didn’t respond.Justin blasted the slimes with his flames and melted them into nothing. His flame attacks certainly killed them. Justin was pleased with his accomplishment because his flames weren’t releasing poisonous vapors anymore, not unless he wished. After absorbing two
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 110
Eight miles into the dungeon, Myles and others were fighting the poison swamp frogs. Myles wasn’t actively fighting and only took care of the frogs that came at him.Casey pierced the eyes of the frogs first and restricted their movements before riddling their bodies with holes using her hair. She looked menacing to Biskie.“She looks much stronger than when she entered the dungeon,” Biskie thought. Unlike Casey, Biskie couldn’t use her powers yet. The dagger wasn’t quite responding to her thoughts. She wanted to cut the frogs in two halves, but the dagger didn’t even come into her hand. Myles told her to think of her hand as a dagger, and it would be enough to make the divine dagger act. Biskie tried, but it still didn’t work.“You should erase doubt and worry from your heart,” Myles advised. “Don’t be anxious. You can’t control anything divine if you worry. Have faith in yourself. Have faith in the divine power.” He grabbed her hand and waved it horizontally as a frog came hopping a

CHAPTER 328
Aero’s attack was deadly enough to easily kill a group of individuals without them even realizing what happened.The table where Myles and others were sitting was utterly destroyed.However, nobody was harmed because Myles had warped them a few meters away at the last moment. The only being he didn’t warp was Dusty.Dusty took the attack head on and was injured just a little. “This is…” he didn’t take more than a second to understand who it was. “Don’t say anything and just run away!” he shouted in ant language.“What nonsense are you talking about!” Aero attacked him with his spear-like limbs. “Her Majesty trusted you and sent you on a mission, but here you are, eating sugary things!”“You idiot! I didn't have any other choice!” Dusty defended himself. “I was forced to work for these humans!”“Shame on you! How can you work for humans?” Aero grew all the more aggressive. “You surely deserve to die!”“Who is that bastard?” Sercy asked angrily because part of the cafe was destroyed by

CHAPTER 327
General Aero of the Battle Ants leaped toward the two old timers and used his jelly-like body to set himself on fire, causing a nasty explosion that covered almost a hundred feet in every direction.It was so hot the ground cracked and the metal melted.Aero used this opportunity to fly away fast. Some automated machine guns recognized this intruder and shot at it, but Aero was able to easily slip past the bullets and flew away into the distance, covering a mile per second.Wise Servant and Sweet Beggar stepped out of the explosion, and Wise Servant sucked in the explosion and contained it in her single hand and squashed it into nothing. The compressed flames no longer existed as a candle light would turn off.“Are you going to go after that thing, or do you want me to go instead?” she asked him.“You’re the wiser one,” Sweet Beggar picked his teeth. “So you should go, since you decided to let that little ant go.”“I thought he might lead us to the one that escaped last time,” she rep

CHAPTER 326
Outside the forever S-rank dungeon where the Battle Ants were present, Wise Servant and Sweet Beggar stopped playing chess and started drinking a strong tea made out of boiling many potent green herbs.And both of them felt energized and relaxed right now as they sat laid back in their chairs.Wise Servant lost in chess once again. She had been trying to win just one game of chess against him for so long. She grew experienced enough to be easily called a grandmaster of chess, but still, she was not able to win against Sweet Beggar just one more time. All she wanted was for him to forgive her and say ‘I love you’ just once more.Both of them had long crossed 100 years of age. So, they weren’t thinking of sex or anything like that. They were purely thinking about each other’s souls.Wise Servant had already beaten him 999,999 times, but she really wanted to win another game; however, Sweet Beggar didn’t make it any easier for her. He remained ruthless all the time so that she couldn’t e

CHAPTER 325
In the dungeon swarming with ants of all kinds numbered in trillions, with more of them joining the ranks as seconds passed by, this dungeon was becoming more and more of a threat to the very existence of not just the Venture city but the very existence of humanity.The queen of all ants, Queen Wiggles, was currently crunching on wafers and looked to be in bliss.“Mm… these are the best things I’ve eaten in a while,” Wiggles looked at the captain ant that brought her a single packet of wafers. “What are these things called?”“Wafter, Your Majesty,” the captain ant kept his head and antennae lowered.“Water… it’s crispy, sweet, and easily melts in your mouth,” Wiggles was drooling. “I think I can eat a mountain of these. Why did you bring only one of these?”“The guy that entered the dungeon had only one of these in his bag,” the captain ant replied.“Oh, I thought you managed to leave the dungeon and then come back inside,” Wiggles said. “But some fool entered the dungeon, huh. Did you

CHAPTER 324
Sercy found an A-rank healer, but he asked for a lot of gold in order to heal Judas and Glint because it wouldn’t be an easy task.“Instead of money, I’ll give you the spoils of an A-rank dungeon we’ll clear,” Sercy told him.“That’s even better,” the healer happily agreed to it.After forming a contract, he came to the Dawn guild to heal Judas and Glint. However, when he approached Judas, Judas attacked him by grabbing his throat and lifting him up.“Who do you think you are…” Judas coldly said. “Did I give you the permission to heal me?”“Judas!” Sercy unleashed a flaming punch and struck his face, sending him flying into the wall right next to him. His head went halfway through the wall. “How drunk are you to attack a guest who came to help you!”Judas pulled his head out of the wall and spat a few pieces of bricks out. “I’m not drunk, Sercy. And I don’t want to get healed because I’m perfectly fine.”“No, you’re not fine. You are mentally disturbed,” Sercy blurted.“Hmph, you thi

CHAPTER 323
In Basil District.Sercy and Ria were heading toward a certain address.“Why did we have to travel so far?” Ria expressed discomfort without hesitation. “Couldn’t you find any healer near our district?”“I could, but I doubt they can fully heal Judas and Master Glint,” Sercy replied. “Judas has been drinking a lot. I’m sure his liver and other organs are not healthy. We need a proper health potion that can improve his health significantly. And Master Glint also needs to drink a health potion because he’s not eating properly.”“His daughter died long ago, so why is he still depressed?” Ria asked.Sercy glanced at her with a bit of a surprised look. “You lack emotional depth. Were you not raised by your parents?”Ria frowned. “Do I have to be raised by my parents to know a father’s love?”“...Not really,” Sercy said. “Some lives can be explained by pen, but some… only by pain. By emotion. If we haven’t experienced the same emotions ourselves, it’ll be hard for us to put ourselves in oth

CHAPTER 322
The glass cube was torn open like it was jelly, which genuinely dropped Sercy’s jaw for a second.Dusty was also not expecting that at all, but he grinned as he unsheathed his sword, ready to attack Myles. However, just when his eyes looked up and his gaze was set on Myles, he suddenly felt invisible pressure crushing him down from every direction.Myles was not even moving his eyelids, but Dusty couldn’t move. In fact, his body was trembling slightly. (What’s this feeling?) He looked very anxious. (This regal aura he’s giving… It’s as if I’m looking at Her Majesty. No, perhaps, dare I say… he’s even greater than Her Majesty Wiggles?)“Myles!” Sercy yelled. “How did you do that? I mean, how could you do that!” She quickly caught Dusty with her hand. “What if this little monster is more dangerous than we think?”“Then why are you holding it in your hand?” Ria asked.“B-Because he’s like a little doll,” Sercy said. “I feel like squeezing him to death.”“Eeek!” Dusty was terrified by her

CHAPTER 321
Myles and Ria came to the canteen while Biskie and Casey were so tired and beaten they had to take rest in the basement training grounds. Myles wasn’t the one who fought them, but they fought each other to the extreme just to test them and so wounded themselves a bit too much.“Our guild has good core fighters now,” Sercy told them while they were eating crunchy leaf burgers. “We only lack a good healer. If we can get someone who can not just heal the wounds but also boost our skills, it’d be wonderful.”“Someone who can do those things will be in high demand,” Ria opined. “Do we have enough money to recruit such a person?”“Money? Screw that,” Sercy snorted. “I want someone who will willingly work with us and share our burdens and not expect too much in return. I don’t want those types that go after money and fame as they cannot fit into anything. They are only going to abandon you when a better opportunity knocks on their door.” She then looked at Myles. “You explored some districts

CHAPTER 320
Dusty stealthily entered the guild building, expecting there to be tight security. However, all he found was an old man mumbling something in his sleep.“What’s this? They have the dragon king’s item, and they’re this relaxed?” Dusty frowned. “Are they that confident in their abilities, or are they just that stupid?”Nevertheless, he kept his guard on and traveled in the hall while using the objects as his cover.He saw Sercy who was loudly talking at her reception desk.“I’m telling you that I will buy those lands!” Sercy was shouting. “Sell me those infested lands, you bastards! If you do that, We’ll become ghost-venerers for you and clear three dungeons of your choice in the next year. How does that sound?”“Five dungeons for three years is okay for me.”“Three years is too long, and five dungeons is too much,” Sercy said. “Three dungeons and one year is final.”When a dungeon breaks, the nearby lands and environment get corrupted. This would cause the value of that land to drop, e
