The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 140
Don went out to get an appointment for Myles to meet the city lord. He knew a council member, so he believed he could use their influence to get the appointment. That was the idea, though he wasn’t sure if it’d work out or not.Myles, meanwhile, didn’t return to Ria’s house. Instead, he went to Rockell’s house. Rockell was the rice mill owner who had given work to Myles for a day and paid him about 2000 dollars. More than that, he treated Myles well, so Myles wanted to return the favor.However, when Myles came home, he was shocked to see someone else living in the house.“Where’s Rockell and his family?” he asked the new resident who was a woke-coyote.“I don’t know. He’s sold his house to pay off his debts.”“Debts?”“You don’t know? When it stormed a couple weeks back, his warehouse was destroyed, and all the goods he stored there were spoiled. It was a huge loss for him. Most people would have committed suicide from suffering such a sudden loss, but he’s a strong ram. So, I’m sure

“Why did you want me to buy this Duck park of all places?” Kong asked the twins.“When we were exploring the dungeon in the past, we heard its previous owner saying that he buried his treasures here. Maybe if we look around, we might find them.”“If we really find a treasure, I’ll promise a long night for both of you,” Kong replied, making them both blush. Then he noticed a family of woke-sheep under a tree. “Hey, you!” he snapped his fingers. “Come here.”Rockell hurriedly came over by himself.“What are you doing here? Don’t you know this is a private park?” one of the twins yelled at Rockell.“I’m sorry, ma’am. I’ll leave now,” Rockell said, his posture loose and meek.“You’re not leaving without paying,” Kong blurted. “10,000 dollars. Pay that, and you can leave.”“T-Ten thousand dollars?” Rockell’s heart shook. “Even if I sell all of my wool, I wouldn’t be able to make that much money.”“Then sell your family’s wool, too,” one of the twins mockingly said, making Kong snicker.“Ye

On the same day.Rockell and his family not only returned to their old home, but they also came with enough money to pay off the remaining debt and build new warehouses. However, Rockell no longer wanted to continue in this grain storing business. He wanted to do some other businesses that were relatively safer.Myles had also given two power crystals to Rockell. One for increasing his physical strength, and another for future insurance. Since there was no way to safely hide the power crystal in his home, Rockell stored it in the bank’s locker.Every ward had its own branch of the central bank, and bank robberies were never successful because every manager was an alpha, and also every staff member was required to be a beta level mage. So, they could easily buy time for the authorities to show up in case some robbers raided the bank.At the same time, everyone in the Bull ward began talking about Kong and his twin teammates because they had found a treasure in the Duck park on the very

“You want to meet the city lord now?” The guards at the outer gate of the city tower spoke in a loud voice to intimidate Myles. “Just leave and come back in the morning, with the appointment letter.”Myles took the appointment letter out. “I already have an appointment letter.”“What? To meet him now?”“No. Tomorrow evening.”“Then why the fuck did you come here now?”“I can’t wait till tomorrow evening.”The guards gritted their teeth. They were both tough-looking woke-lions. “Are you fucking taking us for a joke? If you don’t leave out of our sight right now, we’ll beat your ass black and blue!” they growled.Normal people would have easily pissed their pants from seeing these guards who were both alpha mages, but Myles showed no expression in his face. The lack of expression in his face only annoyed the guards all the more.“If words won’t get to you,” one of the guards brought his claws out and swiftly swiped at Myles, with the intention to badly wound the person.Myles moved bac

“If you think you can stop me, you can give it a try,” Myles confidently stated.Rowl was absolutely astonished from hearing those words. Nobody ever spoke so impudently in Luke’s presence. Even the alphas that were in the top hundred mage rankings would think twice before uttering a word when Luke was around; however, this human that had appeared out of nowhere had the guy to directly provoke the strongest beast in the world? It would be weird if Rowl wasn’t baffled by what he was witnessing.(Is Lord Luke going to kill him?) Rowl grew anxious.“What an impudent youngster you are,” Luke growled through the darkness. “If you weren’t a human, your head would be rolling on the ground by now. But my city is a place where it can be proven that humans and woke-animals can coexist peacefully. So, if you kneel and ask for forgiveness for blaspheming against me, I’ll let you leave. Otherwise, I’ll send you to the same jail I sent my daughter.”Myles smiled. “That’d work for me. I can see your

The central prison guards were all mostly owls, and Rowl’s son, Bubo, was the head jailer of the prison.Bubo was known for torturing every new prisoner that would enter the central prison. Both Shreya and Blue Dog were victims of his torture. Of course, he couldn’t torture Verella as she was the city lord’s daughter. She was an exception.When the bald Bubo saw his father bringing Myles with his talons, he drooled. “A new guy to work my skills on. You really know your son’s tastes the best.”“This guy doesn’t have magic power, but he’s absorbed many power crystals,” Rowl warned his son, “so use the toughest, most durable chains you’ve got.”“Sure, but who’s he anyway?” Bubo couldn’t help but ask while staring into Myles’ eyes. “Why does he look like he’s been hit by a lightning strike a dozen times? And why wasn’t he even put in shackles before you brought him here?”“That’s a long story, but he’s in no position to move anytime soon. Just take him in and ask him these questions,” he
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 146
The central prison was most notorious for its guards, all of whom were woke-spiders. Nobody had ever escaped the prison because of these guards that could shoot webs for long distances and catch prey. Many alphas had tried their luck, and most of them lost their lives in the process.Right now, the guards were all alerted because of Bubo’s arrival with an unknown guest. They stopped him at the entrance itself.“Sir, the protocol says that you shouldn’t bring anyone along without permission in writing,” the head of the prison chambers, Aphido, an old woke-spider, hissed. Even though he was lower in rank compared to Bubo, he still didn’t waver. “Please leave.”“I won’t say this again,” Bubo warned, while Myles stood right behind him. “If you value your lives, just open the gates. Don’t say I didn’t warn you afterward.”“I’ll say the same thing again and again. Leave,” Aphido warned and raised his hand, ready to release webs if necessary.“You are fucked, Aphido,” Bubo hissed.“Yeah, we’

The star crystal was almost as big as Verella’s fist, but the moment a part of it touched her tongue, it melted like candy and was rapidly sucked into her body. She didn’t even need to swallow it down her throat.“What the…” Verella was utterly confused. “Did I absorb it or not?”“You did,” Myles could feel her energy levels spiking crazily. Verella also soon felt a stirring presence fill all over her body.Many of the people in the other cells began to go crazy, as their shadows kept changing shapes nonstop as if many things tried to come out of their bodies.Myles looked at Bubo’s shadow which also behaved similarly like the prisoners, and his eyes widened. Myles immediately thrust his hand forth and poured aura into Verella’s mouth and tried to pull the essence of the dark crystal out of her body, but the dark power in Verella greatly resisted him and pushed his aura out.Part of the shadows of Bubo and many criminals began to snake through the floor and merged with Verella’s shado

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
