The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 254
It turned out to be a humiliating day for Sercy because not just Tiago but nobody in the dungeon bureau helped us. They gave all sorts of reasons as to why they couldn’t help her. Most of those reasons were that they were busy with their schedule and wouldn’t be able to allot time to fight for a low-level guild like Dawn guild.Some told her to ask for Tiago's help.There were also those who told her to send Myles to the bureau if she wanted their help. But she had to refuse.All in all, it was a tiring day. Just as they were leaving, the lift girl asked them for the autograph, but Sercy had to apologize to her for not bringing an autograph.However, Myles ended up singing on a random mug and gave it to her, saying, “I’ll become famous in a little while, so keep it with you until then.”The lift girl would have thought Myles was just bragging, but she could see that he was wearing a D* badge, which meant that he was an Ace D-ranker. So she said, “I’ll keep it with me since it doesn’t
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 255
A school bus was heading to the school, and along the way, it had to pass by a D-rank dungeon that was in a subway.The dungeon looked beautiful like a daffodil flower and gave off a sweet scent.It was a daily route, so the children weren’t even looking at the dungeon as the bus was passing by. They were busy playing a singing game.And they suddenly started hearing the odd siren noises at a unique frequency.The driver was a new guy, so he didn’t know what was going on and stopped the bus, which happened to stop right in front of the dungeon. What separated the bus and the dungeon were the barricades with supernaturally-charged devices installed on them to detect in case of a sudden spike of dungeon energy. It was these devices that were making the sounds.The daffodil flower began to bloom fully and crack as if it was shedding its skin.“It’s a dungeon break!” one of the kids cried out because he had seen one of the television before. “Start the bus!”The driver started the bus, bu
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 256
The situation in the Flower district became a hot-topic because a lot of school kids were either killed or captured hostage by the cunning goblins.When does a dungeon break?Different people put forward different theories. Most people generally believed that when the beasts grew strong enough the dungeon won’t be able to hold them inside anymore, the dungeon would break and force the monsters out into the earth’s dimension.This was why, the monsters that come out during the dungeon break would be overflowing with the energy of the dungeon and would be at the peak of their powers.Containing a D-rank dungeon break by D-rankers alone would result in the loss of many lives, so C-rankers would join them and lead the groups to fight off the monsters in this case.Currently, there weren’t just C-rankers but even B-ranked Venerers that were waiting outside the subway on both sides. However, like most people believed, these B-rankers didn’t show up to save the children or kill the goblins.
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 257
The ranks of the goblins of the subway dungeon were like this: Fodder, underling, warrior, commander, captain, and general.The underlings were identified by their nose rings. The warriors held earrings. The commanders had good weapons. The one with a sash was a captain.Hobgoblins, on the other hand, were formed by making goblins go through black magic rituals.As Myles rushed into the subway, he came across groups of goblins that were laying traps, and he took care of them all with his own strength.They were all underlings and so couldn’t even defend themselves properly against him.However, as he went deeper he came across a goblin holding a child as a hostage and carrying a knife with it.Going back a minute in time. The general goblin was at the center of the subway, riding a large pig monster with many hobgoblins guarding him from every side.The general goblin looked like a hobgoblin, wearing armor as well as holding an ax in one hand and a sword in the other. He really looke
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 258
The general goblin grew utterly frustrated because he had ordered his army to make him hear the screams of the dying children and the humans that had decided to foolishly rush into the dungeon.However, the general goblin was yet to hear a proper screaming of a child that could make a big smile bloom on his nasty lips.“Mm?” The general goblin heard unique footsteps and so looked to his right. He saw a lone human fearlessly rushing toward him, holding what looked like an old, white sword. “Fool. Running to his death…” as he was saying, the human suddenly vanished from his sight. “What?”Myles appeared on the large pig, right behind the general goblin, and thrust his sword at the back of the general goblin’s neck.An ax came at the last fraction of a second and blocked the piercing attack. It was the general who defended himself with his ax without even looking back. The general then thrust this sword over his shoulder with the other hand.Myles moved his head away, but the sword still
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 259
Myles was struggling to get back up as the four hobgoblins came roaring at him.Two people appeared out of nowhere and attacked the hobgoblins from behind and comfortably destroyed them with their powerful mage attacks.And then their gazes fully weighed down on Myles.“Are you from the Whiteblade guild?”“Are you from the Crescent Knight guild?”Both the B-ranked venerers asked at the same time. Because of the darkness, it took them a couple of seconds to see the guild badge on his chest. It didn’t belong to any of the two guilds just mentioned.“Bird badge? What guild are you part of?” they asked in a stern voice. “It’s not from this district, is it?”The guild badge on Myles’ chest was that of a bluebird, which was the symbol of the Dawn guild.Myles didn’t like their gazes, so he said, “I’m sorry. Can you take me outside? I will be really grateful.”The expressions of the B-rankers changed. They were no longer hostile.Normally, people from one district hated it when those from ot
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 260
The green goblin dungeon break in the subway was taken care of in the afternoon period, and much of the credit went to both the Whiteblade guild and the Crescent Knight guild, especially the two B-rankers that led everyone from the front, or so the television reported.Naturally, the B-rankers were called for an interview, and some kids that the guild members saved were also called, and the ratings for the show hit the roof as the children described what the goblins did and how the guild members then took care of the goblins.The fame of both the Whiteblade guild and the Crescent Knight guild got a boost because of the overwhelmingly positive coverage given on them. Even the mayor had announced that badges of excellence will be given to the two B-rankers for leading a successful rescue operation where not even a single child was killed.The two B-rankers got together and celebrated in secret that night and perhaps felt a little bad for Myles, but they thought that it was his bad luck.
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 261
Myles felt a prickling sensation on his back.“Mm?” he turned around, and a coral shell opened. “A C-rank dungeon? Wonderful,” he got up to his feet, quickly finished his meal, and then rushed into the dungeon.He ended up in a rugged scrubland with tall grass competing with taller shrubs. Right before him was a medium-sized lake. On the other side of the lake, a humanoid red-haired cat with a little bit of white hair mixed in was drinking from the lake.Myles took a step forward. The grass crunched underfoot.The cat’s ear immediately jerked; it looked in his direction straight away and hissed.Myles grabbed the bone staff that was on his back. “This fellow reminds me of a pet I used to own in my previous life.”The cat started running on all fours and came circling the lake. It was fast. From about fifty feet away, it leaped at him with a fully stretched body.Myles turned the bone staff into a sword and pierced at it. The cat tapped the blade down and clawed at him with another lim

“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
