The Worthless Son-in-law: Hidden Legend End of the Demon Lord
Ethan walked away from the circle with an air of authority, each step echoing through the eerie silence that filled the Demon Lord’s lair. His posture was regal—majestic in a way that demanded attention and fear. With his back half-turned, he glanced over his shoulder, his emerald eyes gleaming with both power and disdain."I never knew you were this dumb," he said coldly, his voice laced with mockery. "Don’t you realize how powerful the Awaya power is?" There was an edge of curiosity in his tone, as though he genuinely could not understand how the Demon Lord had underestimated him.The Demon Lord, towering and cloaked in an aura of shadow, narrowed his crimson eyes at Ethan. He took a cautious step backward, his heavy boots scraping against the stone floor. Fear crept into his expression—a rare sight for a being who had once commanded legions of monsters and brought entire kingdoms to ruin. He could sense the undeniable truth: Ethan was no longer the man he had once been. The explosi

For years, the Awaya royal family had been searching for Ethan, their long-lost heir. When he vanished without a trace, it had seemed as though an invisible force prevented any efforts to find him. But everything changed when Ethan defeated the Demon Lord—a malevolent being whose powers had not only threatened the peace of Valeria but had also obscured Ethan’s existence from his family.The moment the Demon Lord was slain, it was as though a veil had lifted. Ethan’s parents became aware of his survival, his whereabouts, and everything he had accomplished since his return.

The Worthless Son-in-law: Hidden Legend The price for Loyalty
The wind howled as snowflakes gently covered the ground. Ethan Maverick tightened his coat and took one last look at the training ground he had come to know so well, the faces of those around him familiar yet filled with emotion. He drew in a deep breath and turned his gaze away."Let's go." Ethan walked toward the private jet waiting patiently on the tarmac, stepping up the hatch door. Behind him, rows of heavily muscled soldiers in uniform stood at attention, giving him a special military salute. Some were in tears at his departure, others relieved to be free from his relentless training, but all of them would miss his extraordinary combat skills that had helped them in countless battles. "Farewell from the Special Forces." "Farewell from the Navy." "Farewell from the Special Air Service."Without a word, Ethan boarded the jet, not turning back or acknowledging their farewells. To him, farewells carried too much weight and sorrow. The jet’s engines roared to life as Raymond cl
The Worthless Son-in-law: Hidden Legend Asper Stanley is a Devil
Lauren’s heart pounded in fear as the door slammed shut in her face. She felt a chill run down her spine, a growing sense of unease creeping over her. Something was wrong.She banged on the door desperately, but it wouldn’t budge. Frustrated, she kicked and pulled at the handle, hoping to catch the attention of the bodyguard.Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at her daughter. The state she was in broke her heart. She couldn’t believe what had happened. Just as she was about to continue her frantic attempts at the door, the bathroom door creaked open.Asper Stanley stepped out, wearing only a robe and rubbing his golden hair with a towel. Lauren stared at him, stunned.“So it was you,” she breathed, her voice trembling. She should have known it all along. Asper and her stepsister, Katherine, were the only ones who can hurt her and her daughter like this. But she never imagined Asper could be so cruel, so twisted.A smug grin spread across Asper’s face as he approached her. “Of

“Maya! Maya! Can you hear me?” Lauren shouted, desperately calling for her daughter.“Mummy, I want... Daddy. Maya shouldn’t die without knowing Daddy. Mummy, I want to sleep, and I want Daddy.”“Maya isn’t going to die, okay? Daddy will come soon, I promise.” Lauren spoke softly, trying to reassure her daughter.“No, Mummy, I want Daddy now,” Maya cried, tears streaming down her face as the pain overwhelmed her. She squirmed in her mother’s lap, struggling.“I’ll get him, but you need to stay still so I can remove the pin, alright?” Lauren said, trying to stay calm.“No! I want Daddy!” Maya’s voice cracked with desperation.Lauren, helpless and panicked, had no idea what to do. Where could she possibly find Ethan? He had disappeared without a trace since the day he left. He had never reached out to her nor did she hear of him. With shaking hands, she grabbed her old phone and dialed the number she knew by heart. The call went unanswered, only to be met with a cold, automated message.
The Worthless Son-in-law: Hidden Legend A father's Regret
Ethan was overwhelmed by a swirl of emotions as he rushed toward Miracle Hospital. If the call had truly come from his daughter, it meant Lauren had been pregnant before he left. His eyes widened in shock as the truth sank in.So... Lauren had been enduring mistreatment and harsh criticism while being pregnant? Did I really leave a pregnant woman all alone?He couldn't imagine all what she would have gone through.A sense of suffocation filled Ethan as his breathing became strained. The guilt weighed on him so heavily that he didn’t even realize when a tear fell down his cheek.He had been so selfish, so consumed by his own needs. While the Walkers might not have killed Lauren, he knew they could have mistreated her to the point where she might wish she were dead.On top of that, her mother seemed to care nothing for her well-being. She was only interested in the Walker family's wealth. Lauren was treated like a servant, while Katherine her step sister was treated as the favored child.

"So?" Stanley asked, his voice sharp.James felt a wave of embarrassment flood through him, wishing the ground would swallow him whole. He could feel Stanley’s subordinate’s mocking gaze piercing through him.Stanley's assistant leaned in to whisper something in his ear, and Stanley's face instantly shifted to one of urgency. He rushed past James, moving like a blur, barely waiting for the car to come to a complete stop before dashing inside.James wanted to stop him, but fear held him back. He could only wonder who had the power to make Stanley react like this. With no answers, he returned to his villa, where his father’s reprimands awaited.Meanwhile, Ethan had taken his daughter to his villa in Spring, one of the most expensive and beautiful locations in the country. He had bought the entire villa a year ago, during his time in the military, choosing this particular one because of its unmatched beauty.As he rubbed his daughter’s hair gently, he waited for Stanley Jos’s arrival.

The Worthless Son-in-law: Hidden Legend Rescue at the last moment
Lauren's fists clenched against the ropes that bound her. She couldn’t let this happen. Her mind raced, searching for any words she could say to Asper to save Maya. But in this moment of helplessness, all she could do was curse Ethan for abandoning her, for leaving her to fend for herself in this cruel place with their child."Why?" she whispered, her voice breaking. "Why did you leave me, Ethan? Why didn't you take us with you?" Her voice cracked under the weight of years of unanswered questions.Asper leaned in closer, his face twisting into a mocking smirk. "That’s not something you’ll ever get an answer to. He chose to run away and left you behind. And you… well, you’re just a pawn in this game now. I can manipulate you and your child as I wish."Tears streamed down Lauren’s face as she stared at him. She had nothing left to lose—nothing except Maya. And she would fight for her daughter’s life until her last breath."If you harm her, Asper, I swear to you, I will make you regret i

What if Ethan dies right before her eyes?
Lauren still couldn’t believe what had just happened. The moment she opened the door, a chilling sight greeted her—Raymond stood there, but something about him was deeply wrong. His usual calm and composed expression was gone, replaced by an eerie coldness. His eyes, once warm brown, were now an unsettling shade of black that seemed to swirl with malice. The sinister gleam in his gaze made her blood run cold. At that moment, Lauren didn’t need anyone to tell her that she had made a terrible mistake—she had opened the door to death.Her heart pounded violently in her chest, and her first instinct was that he would strike immediately—perhaps to kill her and Maya without a second thought. Panic surged through her veins, but she forced herself to move. In a flash, she rushed to grab Maya, clutching her tightly in her arms as though her embrace alone could shield her daughter from whatever horror was about to unfold.She braced herself for an attack. Any second now, she expected Raymond to
Raymond is here to help....
When Raymond reached the lowest floor, he was met with yet another lock requiring a password. His brows furrowed deeply in frustration as he faced the obstacle before him."Why are there so many security measures?" he muttered under his breath, irritation creeping into his voice.Without wasting time, he began pressing various combinations of passwords, his fingers moving swiftly across the keypad. Yet, no matter how many times he tried, the lock remained stubbornly unyielding. His jaw clenched as the familiar beep of rejection echoed through the narrow hallway, further stoking his annoyance.Meanwhile, in the underground room, Lauren was busy plaiting Maya’s hair. The soft hum of the room’s ventilation filled the silence, and the gentle pull of Maya’s silky strands occupied her hands. The quiet atmosphere, however, was shattered by an unfamiliar sound—a faint yet distinct beeping coming from the door’s keypad. At first, she ignored it, assuming it was nothing out of the ordinary, but
The Fight
At the early hours of the third day, the soldiers stationed at the Spring Estate began to move out in disciplined formations, their armor clinking softly as they departed. The once-bustling estate, filled with vigilant warriors, now seemed quieter, more desolate, as their numbers thinned. The two opposing forces—Ethan's men and the army of the Demon Lord—had somehow communicated and reached an agreement to settle their conflict in an open space deep within Valeria’s forest. It was an isolated location, hidden so far within the wilderness that not even the most daring tourist would think to venture there. It was the perfect place for a battle—far from prying eyes and innocent bystanders.Despite the mass departure, Ethan did not leave the estate entirely unguarded. He had given strict orders for a handful of his most trusted soldiers to remain behind. Their sole mission was to protect his wife, Lauren, and their young daughter, Maya. Hidden away in a secret underground chamber beneath
The three prominent families are finally ruined!
“Should I go after him?” Don B asked the moment Raymond slipped away into the darkness, his voice tense with a mix of eagerness and frustration. Despite his earlier failure to subdue Ethan Maverick, the thought of allowing a potential spy to escape gnawed at him.The Demon Lord, still standing with an air of unshakable authority, didn’t respond immediately. His crimson eyes lingered on the jagged hole in the ceiling where Raymond had been lurking moments before. The room’s heavy, oppressive silence made the flickering torchlight feel colder, as though the very air shuddered under his presence.Without turning, he spoke—his voice smooth, deliberate, and void of any concern. “You don’t need to pursue him,” he said, as though the matter had already been decided. “I’ve already planted something in him… something that will make our mission easier in two days time.”Don B frowned slightly, though he was careful to keep his head bowed in submission. His master’s words were cryptic, but he kn
Annihilate the entire bloodline
Ethan didn’t go to where Lauren was. Instead, he only texted her to put her mind at ease. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to be by her side—he wanted nothing more than to see her and ensure she and their child were safe—but he couldn’t afford to take any risks. Not now. Not when there might still be spies lurking around the Spring Estate. The last thing he wanted was to give their enemies any opportunity to strike, especially when the stakes were so high.His mind was sharp, constantly calculating every possible outcome. What if there were still people watching them? What if his movements led those enemies straight to his wife and child? No, Ethan wouldn’t allow that to happen. He had to be cautious. One wrong move could cost him everything. For now, he would maintain his distance and rely on his trusted subordinates to keep things under control.Without wasting any time, he summoned Raymond, one of his most loyal and capable men. As soon as Ethan’s command was sent, Raymond arrived swi
Controller of the Awaya kingdom power
They even had the audacity to test him like this.Ethan’s sharp eyes locked onto the tiny red light flickering ominously in the distance. Judging by its position and brightness, he could tell that the enemy wasn’t far away. His instincts, honed through years of experience and survival, immediately kicked in. He knew exactly what this meant—they were being watched. The thought alone made his blood boil.How bold of them to come this close. Did they really think they could challenge him?The soft, rhythmic sound of running water echoed in the background, reminding him that Lauren was still in the bathroom. The steady splashing reassured him that, for now, she was oblivious to the looming danger. Ethan took a deep breath, forcing himself to remain calm despite the growing tension in his chest. There was no time to waste. He needed to act quickly before their enemies could make their next move.Without hesitation, he reached for Lauren’s phone, his fingers moving swiftly as he dialed a nu
Dead bodies in Spring Estate
As soon as Ethan stepped into the sitting room, the distant sounds of battle reached his ears. The sharp clang of weapons, the heavy thud of bodies hitting the ground, and the occasional pained groans echoed through the estate. His eyes darkened as he listened."So they couldn't even wait for me to attack," he muttered, his voice laced with irritation. Without another word, he strode toward the door and stepped outside.The moment he did, a sudden gust of air rushed toward him at an alarming speed. His instincts kicked in instantly, and he dodged with an almost impossible swiftness, his body moving as if he had anticipated the attack long before it came.Standing a few meters away, Bethel’s eyes widened in shock. No one—absolutely no one—had ever been able to evade his strikes before. Yet, this man, Ethan, had just done so without even breaking a sweat. It was inconceivable.Bethel clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the unease that crept into his chest. He had always prided himse
