“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 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
Just like females, males also had many sensitive spots. Myles also had some extremely sensitive spots. His ears were one of those. The moment Verella bit his ear, he ended up screaming and moaning at the same time. It was definitely the hottest sound Verella had ever heard, and it made her want to keep going all the more.“Stop,” Myles insisted, his nostrils flaring at the scent of her arousal.“Or what?” She smiled into his neck. Her breath tingled through his skin like river waters tumbling over a fall. He felt both excited and serene at the same time. But then her hand slid under his shirt, and her finger brushed across his belly button in cyclic strokes. It was a soul-stirring feeling, to say the least, getting caressed this way. The whites of his eyes were exposed in full.“I remember all your soft spots,” she whispered. “As long as I’m touching you, I’ll have power over you.” She ignored the skittery beat of his heart and proceeded with the extremely sensual and dangerous occupa
“I told you to keep an eye on Myles Mertzel. You not only let him escape, but you also let my daughter take two important prisoners away,” Luke was staring angrily at Darvi, his right-hand man. “If your explanation doesn’t convince me, you’ll lose an eye.”“I was thinking of stopping Myles after he comes out of the prison with Young Lady,” Darvi explained, “but then he took out a crystal and handed it to the Young Lady. A dark star crystal that gave a scary powerful vibe.”“One that’s enough to upset you?”“My Lord, it brought out what he called demons out of my body. If you were there, you would have probably felt the same way,” Darvi didn’t have hair on his snake-like body. Otherwise, his hair would have stood up. “It gave off a power quite similar to the crystal you absorbed when you defeated the guardian of the first floor of the nether dungeon.”Luke squinted his eyes. “He must have gotten a similar crystal on the 66th floor.”“Probably. The 66th floor may really be the last floo
Myles returned to Ria’s house, only to find out that they had been taken to the Feather ward after sunset. Feather Ward was very close to the Wolf ward, where a significant number of the top mages lived. Myles was returning from there, and now he had to go back to that place again? Myles knew something wasn’t right, so he rushed straight to the Feather ward. He traveled fast and swiftly on the rooftops. Even though he went right past many mages sitting on the watchtowers, they only felt a breeze going past them. Most of them didn’t even think that someone might have gone past them. As for those that doubted, they still found nothing to point their fingers at. In the Feather Ward. In the backyard of the warden’s house, Ria and Justin were beaten black and blue by two alpha mages that looked like humanoid bulls similar to the guy they had fought in the colosseum not long ago. They were both so powerful and durable none of Ria and Justin’s attacks affected them. These two were Bullock
Biskie’s screams could be heard all the way into the other rooms. The Manglers were also there in one of those rooms.“We need power crystals more than anything. If we can get our hands on three quality power crystals, we can definitely power up before Lord Luke opens the gate to the 66th floor.”“Yeah. Now that the cerberus has died, it’s only a matter of time before the 66th floor is breached. We’ve gotta be ready for that.”Suddenly, they heard multiple screams coming from the neighboring room. They hurriedly rushed into that room to see if everything was alright.The twins had their bodies tightly wrapped around by Casey’s hair which rapidly grew out of her hand. Some strands of hair also attacked Kong, but he kept punching and burning her hair with his fists. But this at least stopped him from defiling Biskie.More strands formed bows and attacked the Manglers with a volley of arrows. There was little to no room for them to properly dodge and defend themselves, so the woke-bear
