The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 29
Normally, mages from other cities wouldn’t be permitted to go higher than the 600th floor, but because Verella wanted to meet Dr. Dave and paid 1 million dollars for his appointment, she was directly taken to the 998th floor.It was full of robots doing research on various things.Verella and Myles were told to kill time in the waiting room, as Dr. Dave had gone outside. The television was playing, and Verella was sucked right into a football match, and she started cheering for one side.The entire room was made of glass, including the flooring. Myles tapped twice on the glass wall and nodded once. “It’s durable.” He could see a part of the city and the sea from up there. Most of the city, however, was obstructed by the clouds as he was thousands of meters high from the ground. Wanting to explore more views, he stepped out of the waiting room.“Sir, you should stay inside the waiting room until Dr. Dave returns,” a mechanical voice of a robot guard rang.Myles didn’t like the robots b
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 30
After seeing Justin’s face on the stretcher, Verella looked at Myles and hoped he wouldn’t do anything silly.She was about to grab his hand and take him away, but he caught the leopard robot’s head and squeezed it. The skull broke, and electric charges leaked out, startling the others.“Watch out,” Verella swiveled and kicked the leopard robot away, which then exploded. It wasn’t a big explosion, but it would be enough to fatally injure a human.The two humanoid robots that were dragging the stretcher immediately brought the drilling machines that were in their hands and attacked Myles.With a sweeping kick, Verella sent their heads flying.“You screwed up,” Verella hissed at Myles. “These robots will keep attacking us now. Let’s leave this place. We’ll explain Dr. Dave afterward.”“You go first. I’ll be back in a few minutes,” Myles told her.“Huh? What are you talking about?” Verella noticed that he was looking at Justin. Myles placed his hand on Justin’s chest. A pulse of energy f

Verella jumped from the 998th floor without a shred of hesitation. She went down through the clouds and crashed on a flying drone. Not stopping there, she jumped onto another flying drone in the distance. Her jumps were packed with power yet accurate. Her claws could dig through the tough metal the drones were built with.She signaled to the driver through the glass window to make a landing, or she wouldn’t hesitate to destroy the drone. The driver was forced to make a landing on the floating cobra institute.Verella thought the mages would come after her straight away, but to her surprise, all the flying drones were heading toward another direction in the city, from where she could feel vibrations coming in through the air.“Did some criminal escape the prison or something?” she wondered and looked at Myles who wasn’t crying even though he was bleeding from the ears. “I told you to shut your ears, didn’t I?”“I did,” he replied with a slightly angry expression.“Uh…” Verella looked a

The explosions destroyed the top floor of Duncan’s skyscraper, sending metal pieces flying everywhere.“Stay alert!” Alpha Ayan firmly stood on top of a drone with his arms closed. He was able to stand straight even though the explosions pushed the drones away. He was the son of the former city lord, and he was young and stylish. “This much isn’t enough to kill the Aqua Double.”As he hissed, the mother and daughter were still standing in a silvery water sphere, not at all hurt by the massive explosion that was heard by half the population in the city.“More and more are gathering like cockroaches,” Maria gnashed her teeth. “We should leave right now, or we might not survive another day.”Rosie’s heart skipped a beat. “What about Phil?”Maria glanced at her daughter, furling her brow in suppressed fury. “Are you seriously worrying about him now when your own life should be of more priority? Besides, he’s going to die soon anyway.”Rosie frowned. “I.. I’ll save him no matter what.”“H
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 33
The message was sent by Dave, and in less than a minute, all the eight alphas except Amir gathered at Duncan’s Tower. Ayan retreated from his fight and met them who were standing on the wings of a flying drone.Rosie wiped the blood from her mouth and was astonished to see the nine alphas together. “Can we escape from these guys, Mom?”Maria, however, was grinning as she looked up at the alphas that just jumped and landed around her and her daughter.“How could you kill Duncan who had done nothing but service to the city?” Alpha Lexi queried. She didn’t seem angry like most other alphas did. “How could you cause such a disturbance in our city? Don’t you have morals and conscience?”“You are Peacekeeper Lexi, aren’t you?” Maria turned to face her. “Your city has lost its lord, and none of you are rising up to take the cobra crystal and become the new city lord. Now, let’s be frank. Every other city is keeping an eye on you guys, hoping to get their hands on the cobra crystal. It’s just
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 34
Rosie was struggling to fight Blue Dog as his verbal attacks proved far more effective against her than his physical attacks.“Don’t get pulled into his pace, Rosie,” Maria warned her daughter while defending herself from Ayan and Johnson’s attacks. “He’s a melee fighter. Keep your distance and deal damage.”Rosie listened to her mother’s advice and backed away.“You think I’ll let you do that?” Blue Dog tried to close in the distance, but she made water-walls out of thin air, and they momentarily slowed Blue Dog. In that time, she made the distance. To her surprise, her mother also joined her.Maria quickly said in a low voice, “If Dave and Shreya join in the fight, things will get out of our hands. There’s only one way we can escape from this.” She made an ‘o’ symbol with her hand. “You know what I’m talking about, right?”“You don’t mean…” Rosie’s eyes widened. “But if we do that…”Maria grabbed her daughter’s hand and created a rising pillar of water under their feet to jump off t
The Strongest Son-in-law CHAPTER 35
In the library, Justin was looking around to see if he could find anything valuable other than the books; things he could shove in his pockets or underwear. After all, Shreya wasn’t around. And there was nobody else around, not counting Myles and Verella.Verella was reading a book about vampires, whereas Myles was on his knees and massaging her legs. She put her calves on top of both his shoulders and had this cheeky grin on her face. “Most men wouldn’t show as much interest in massaging a woman's legs as they would in licking them, but you are different. I’m liking you more and more.”Myles, however, didn’t show any reaction in his face. He still vividly remembered the time when a dagger had pierced his heart, and the words his wife Vreka had used in his last moments.He used to be weak to praise in his past life, especially when it was women that were praising him, but now, he knew better.“Why would a slave hesitate to massage his master’s legs?” Myles responded lately.“I wouldn’

The tree branches broke into the library and destroyed the shelves and everything there. But Myles, Verella, and Justin had already left the library.They were outside and watching the horror take place right before their eyes. While Verella didn’t show much of a reaction, Justin was terrified by seeing the young students dying left and right. The students in the cobra institute were all preteens, young teens, or teenagers. Seeing them impaled almost froze Justin’s body in dread.Myles, on the other hand, didn’t like what he was seeing. The cries of the teenagers, every single cry, reached his ears, but he tried not to let their voices touch his heart.Just then, a ten-year-old was dragged by a branch right before his eyes. Justin was too shook by fear to move, whereas Verella seemed to not care that people were dying, as if she had seen things like this before.Myles had also seen things like these, things way worse and horrific than these, but the ten-year-old’s miserable voice sayi

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
