The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 202
“Haaa!” Rashn howled and used all his magic power to seal the nine shadow serpents in one of his rings, which turned completely back.Rashn was still standing, but he wasn’t smiling. “Whoever that bastard is, I’m not sure if I can defeat him now that he’s got the power of the Dusk Crystal. I’ll need more power if I want to face him.” He teleported and appeared in the midst of Darvi and Asger, putting their fight to a halt. “We’re leaving.”“Yes, Your Majesty,” Asger quickly replied. Puck also nodded.“You think I’m going to let you escape,” Darvi spit poisonous acid from his mouth. It was a fast attack that could completely melt bones, but the undeads teleported and vanished from his sight. “Tch. Nothing is happening as predicted. I thought of stealing the Nether King’s heart crystal if possible, but I never got that opportunity. He was always alert of his surroundings and never let his guard down even when fighting Luke. He really is a monster.“But… who’s the guy that killed Young L

As Casey and Biskie wondered how they should deal with Justin, who was actually Myles living in Justin’s body now, Hawkins flew down and landed next to his daughter.His jaw hardened. “Who did this to her?” he glared at Casey. “Is it you?”“Eek!” Casey quickly shook her head.“Is it you?” Hawkins looked at Biskie who also shook her head. “Then, who did this?” He was busy fighting a nether knight, so he couldn’t focus on anything else until now.Biskie and Casey didn’t want to give Justin’s name away as it seemed like Hawkins would likely kill for what Justin had done.Hawkins picked up Ria along with her severed arm and quickly flew away because Ria was in a critical state due to blood loss.Biskie and Casey looked at each other.“Even though Ria had a divine shield, how could she get wounded like that?” Biskie wondered.Dirk, Biskie’s divine dagger, replied, “The one who attacked her used spiritual energy, so it rendered the divine shield a lot less effective. It won’t be easy for he
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 204
Half of the nether knights were defeated, but the rest of them left with the Nether King through a portal, which none of the city’s mages dared to enter through.The black-eyed people reverted back to their normal selves.The battles ended, but the entire city had suffered great deal of destruction and damage. The healing mages got busy, treating all the wounded. Still, the tensions between humans and woke-animals were there.The woke-animal mages with earth ability got together and tried to join the island that was split into when Justin and Myles’ had briefly collided.Rockell and his family were safe. Hipster and Foxie were also safe, but Hipster’s family had died in the hands of human mages.Almost every ward lost a significant number of people, but not a single soul in the Sheep’s ward died, though a lot of them were injured.In the lowest floor of Lord Luke’s tower.The torturers were taking turns to play with Myles who was in Justin’s body now. He had cuts all over his body. Hi

Biskie and Casey were staying at Ria’s house, which was now Hipster’s house, to be precise.“Where did Myles go? Normally, he’d find us by himself, but this time, he’s not back yet, and Ria was also taken by her father. It’s not looking good for us here, either,” Biskie was biting her nails as Casey defended the house from the flaming attacks being thrown by woke-animal mages hired by Hipster.Hipster believed that taking Ria’s house was a sign of bad luck, and so he had decided to destroy the house. Despite knowing that Casey and Biskie were inside, he still told the mages to destroy the house. And the mages happily obliged.The tensions between the humans and woke-animals were running high at the moment throughout the city as the recent disaster had shown everyone that the coexistence of human kind and animal kind was nothing but a pipedream given how one side kept shifting the blame onto another.“Biskie! I can’t take it much longer!” Casey hissed.“What? What do you mean you can’t

In the sheep’s ward.Penny and Elder John were repairing broken homes together. With Penny’s ability, she was able to carry heavy objects and place them where they needed to be placed, thus making the work easier.“I’m sorry, John,” Penny apologized after seeing John struggling to work. He was sweating and panting from overexerting himself. Even his back hurt. “I couldn’t bring a vehicle in time. Now, the security will be too tight for us to travel safely.” She had counted on buying a vehicle from a friend who was a woke-animal, but contrary to her expectations, her friend didn’t give her the vehicle.“It’s okay. You’ve done what you could,” John said.Just then, Luke landed not far from them and kept looking around. Seeing the tall woke-wolf, John rushed over. Penny recognized Luke straight away, though she had no idea until now that Luke lost both of his hands.“How many died in this ward, John?” Luke asked.“Thankfully, none,” John said tensely.“Everybody survived, huh,” Luke was
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 207
Not everybody was allowed entrance to the underground chambers of the lord’s tower. Only the top 100 ranked mages were allowed to enter after getting permission from Lord Luke.Many mages wanted to see the man that had killed Verella who was still at the absolute top of the rankings even though it had been more than a year since she last contributed to the city.Naturally, Hawkins, the Manglers, and many other mages wanted to see Justin at least once. However, they didn’t get the permission, as the chances of them killing Justin were high.The only person that was allowed entrance into the underground chamber other than Luke right now was Bryant.Currently, Shreya and Blue Dog were in the Wolf ward, about 2 miles away from the lord’s tower. There were four eagles standing at the four corners of the rooftop of the tower, watching over the entire ward.“Can’t we get any closer?” Blue Dog asked, looking frustrated.“No. I’m already using an aerial barrier for camouflage, but those woke-e

A few minutes earlier.Tightly bound in stardium chains, Myles was rotting in the underground cell, hanging by his arms that bore his whole bodyweight. He was hurting. He was thirsty. He was hungry. He was angry.With his tongue gone, he couldn’t even utter the heavenly mantras anymore.He had probably never been in this type of a disastrous situation after he had become strong in his past life.But he didn’t panic because he knew that it wouldn’t do him any good.He just patiently waited, hoping a chance would show up. Any opportunity. If it knocked on his door, he would gladly grasp it with all his heart and might.Some time later, Bryant entered the room and unsheathed his sword.“Tell me, Justin Alves. What body part do you want me to cut first?”Bryant released red aura through his sword. Myles’ eyes slightly widened and drew in more light, as he believed he found a way to escape from this nightmare.“Do you want me to start with your legs?” Bryant asked. “No. That’ll kill you s

Ria woke up and found herself lying in a bed. She tried to get up, but she couldn’t move easily because of her injury. It seemed like someone had attacked her severed arm back to her shoulder, which made her feel a little at ease, as it also meant that she wasn’t in the hands of an enemy. It took her a whole eight minutes to get off the bed. She was still sedated, or she probably wouldn’t even have been able to get up because there was so much pain in her shoulder region. Moreover, it was her dominant hand. Every step took her four to five seconds. “Justin, you bastard… I’ll never forgive you for this. If I find you, I’ll rip your head off, I promise.” It angered her to no end when she remembered how he used her as a shield to block Luke’s attack. She opened the door and stepped into an open, roofless hall. However, what puzzled her was that there were no household items or any tools anywhere in the hall. Come to think of it, even back in the room she just came from, there weren’t a

“It’s been a few minutes since we came out,” Biskie was feeling nervous. “Myles isn’t dead, is he?”“Speak something positive for once,” Casey snorted. “There’s no way Myles would die.”“But that old woman seemed freakishly strong, and we know that Myles isn’t as strong as he used to be,” Biskie said.Sercy ended up hearing their words. “Wait, what do you mean by Myles not being as strong as he used to be? Explain more.”Biskie was startled.Myles had specifically told them to keep their pasts hidden for their own good.“Uh, it was nothing. He used to exercise a lot in the past, but now, he’s become rather lazy,” Biskie replied, laughing embarrassedly.“Do you see cauliflowers in my hair?” Sercy hissed at her. “It’s obvious that you’re lying.” She then shifted her gaze to Ria. “What are you guys hiding from me? Myles was able to cancel an attack that only the likes of halcyon knights can.“Halcyon knights work directly under the Three Kings, and they’re all formidable because they are
CHAPTER 330
Before the tornado grew large and more powerful, Myles also waved his hand as if he was pulling the curtain aside.The tornado dissipated pretty fast.Sercy and others didn’t quite understand how Myles did it, but Glint, Judas, and Wise Servant saw it.“W-What happened?” Biskie was utterly clueless.Ria took a couple of seconds to realize it as he remembered Myles’ words.Vera had four stages of manipulation: flesh, water, wind, and soul.Did Myles just undo the tornado with his vera?Sercy knew this was possible to do with vera, but it was many times harder to cancel an attack than to cast one.So, she didn’t think Myles used Vera.After all, it would take years of consistent focus and dedication to master different levels of vera.Someone who looked as young as Myles couldn’t possibly be possessing such skill, Sercy thought.“I see,” Wise Servant’s expression changed. “You’re not just some random brat. To be able to control vera to such an extent at that age… your talent rivals that
CHAPTER 329
One of the Four Great Heroes, the eccentric old lady known to eat food in restaurants and not pay the bill for not satisfying her tongue was now right before Sercy.Unlike her, Casey and Biskie didn’t know how powerful and popular the Four Great Heroes were.Ria’s instincts, however, told her that this old lady was nasty and powerful. She couldn’t calm herself down.But then, Myles put his hand on her shoulder.She didn’t know what he did, but her heart beat slowed down.“Jelly Shock!” Aero released his electric attack, but Wise Servant dispersed it with her wind ability.“Don’t struggle,” she put invisible pressure on Aero’s body, which made him feel like his eyes might pop out, and his lips would get ripped.Dusty, however, stayed silent as if he had already given up any hope on escaping.Wise Servant closed her fist and then turned to face the fellow humans.“Give me one reason why I should spare some mercy on you guys for chatting with the monster-kind?” she asked. “How can you p
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
