Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Oh My God, Why Isn’t the Magic Working?

With a furious roar from Wang Kun, a fireball smashed squarely into his forehead. In the next instant, the flames flared up, burning him to a crisp.

Wang Kun probably never imagined, even in death, that he would be killed by his own dear son.

Mengde was a little speechless.

Just now, when faced with the sudden Flame Ball attack, he had subconsciously aimed the Space Black Hole’s redirection point at Wang Kun.

And so, Wang Kun, who had just managed to work up some courage, met a tragic end once again.

Before, he didn’t dare to shoot for fear of hitting his own people. Now that he could finally shoot, he got himself killed the moment he did.

He would have been better off not shooting at all.

Fortunately, Mengde had kept the Space Black Hole open, and it absorbed the aftershock of the explosion.

He and Cheng Ying were unharmed.

But the woman was still in a daze.

’The bastard I wanted to kill is just... gone like that?’

’Why does this feel so dramatic?’

A chubby kid weighing over three hundred pounds appeared before Mengde.

Mengde took one look. ’Hey, I know this guy!’

He remembered that this chubby kid was in his twenties and didn’t have a job, just mooching off his parents at home.

The reason Mengde knew him was because the guy was always stealing his packages.

Even threatening him with a lawyer’s letter was useless.

Instead, the chubby kid had spammed him with bad reviews—somehow leaving eleven bad reviews for ten packages.

One time, he even framed Mengde for stealing his prized ”Ga”-brand dog. If it hadn’t been for the security footage, Mengde would have ended up in jail for a few days.

[Ding! Superpower User detected nearby!]

[Superpower User: Wang Yan]

[Awakened Superpower: Small Fireball (D-Level)]

[Level: Tier One Early Stage]

(Superpower Level: SSS, SS, S, A, B, C, D, E, F)

(Superpower User Level: Tier One to Tier Nine)

Mengde hadn’t expected this guy to actually awaken a Superpower.

Wang Yan rushed out, glanced at what little was left of his father, and said in a cluelessly adorable tone,

”Oh my god, why did my magic fail?”

It had to be said, Wang Yan’s entrance was quite comical.

That one line nearly made Mengde laugh to death.

When he looked at Mengde, however, the chubby kid’s face turned vicious, radiating killing intent.

”It’s all your fault! You killed my dad!”

As he spoke, he conjured two balls of fire and hurled them at Mengde.

”Behold my Divine-level Red Lotus Karmic Fire!!”

’Divine-level my ass!’

’How dare he insult me with such a puny Small Fireball?!’

’This is outrageous!’

’Enough is enough!!!’

Seeing this, Mengde didn’t even bother to dodge.

On one hand, he aimed the Space Black Hole’s redirection point at Wang Yan.

The living room wasn’t large, only about five meters across.

Well within his redirection range.

Besides, the Superpower Wang Yan had awakened was low-level, only D-Level!

Redirecting it would be ridiculously easy!

On the other hand, he whipped out his Desert Eagle and started unloading on Wang Yan.

Wang Yan, still in the middle of his roar, saw his fireballs vanish in the next instant.

Before he could figure out what had happened, countless bullets came flying at him.

”Holy shit!”

There were too many bullets for Wang Yan to dodge. Moreover, as he tried to evade, a black hole slowly materialized behind him, and the Flame Balls that had just disappeared smashed right into his back.

Caught in the pincer attack, he was immediately engulfed in an explosion.

The entire apartment was blown flat.

The woman inside the apartment was killed in the blast as well.

Luckily, Mengde reacted quickly. With night having fallen, his reaction speed had doubled.

He immediately grabbed Cheng Ying and teleported out.

Otherwise, even with the protection of the Space Black Hole, he would have inevitably been injured.

....................

「Inside Apartment 1302.」

Having gotten her revenge, Cheng Ying cried in Mengde’s arms for a long time.

Mengde could only comfort her, and then he helped her tidy up the apartment.

He had originally wanted her to go back with him.

But Cheng Ying clearly wasn’t ready for that yet.

However, she didn’t refuse... just said she needed some time to adjust...

He had no choice but to leave some supplies for her before he left.

As he opened the door, the woman hesitated for a moment before speaking.

”Mengde, thank you!”

”I... I’ll definitely repay you.”

Mengde looked at her blushing face. She had changed into a black, hip-hugging skirt that made her even more alluring. Then he remembered her status as a widow...

He couldn’t hold back any longer... He pinned her against the wall...

”I’ll collect some interest first...”

After a war of lips and tongues, Mengde finally left, satisfied.

Although he hadn’t completely conquered her, he had at least gotten a small taste of the widow...

Her Affinity had even risen to 50, just one step away from the intimate Affinity Level of 60 needed for a reward!

”Oh, we common folk are so very happy tonight...”

Overcome with excitement, Mengde even started whistling...

Upstairs, watching Mengde’s retreating figure from afar, Cheng Ying was blushing furiously.

She touched a certain place and found it was already... moist.

’That young man almost... did it to me...’

But then she thought about how this man had first saved her from peril, then braved danger to help her get revenge.

Cheng Ying felt nothing but immense gratitude toward Mengde...

And it seemed the only way she could repay him was to give her complete self to him...

..........................

Meanwhile, by the time Mengde returned to Building 5, it was almost 10 p.m.

When Mengde entered the room, the two sisters threw themselves into his arms.

Chen Jiayi was the stronger one, but her younger sister, Yaoyao, was bawling her eyes out.

Mengde knew the sisters were worried about him, so he took his time comforting both of them.

The two sisters then pulled Mengde over to the dining table.

Just as he was wondering what was going on, the older sister, Jiayi, brought out a bowl of noodles.

”My sister spent all afternoon making this. You’re not allowed to say it tastes bad, Brother-in-law.”

Yaoyao explained from the side.

Mengde knew this had to be Chen Jiayi’s first time cooking.

Before, the two sisters were the type who had never done a day of housework in their lives.

’This woman... she really put her heart into it...’

He had to admit, Mengde was quite touched.

Of course, it wasn’t as dramatic as someone like Mr. Xu feeling like he had a home for the first time just by drinking a bowl of congee.

But he had long since come to see taking care of the two sisters as his responsibility...

A day passed quickly. For the past two days, both sisters had their ”relative” visiting.

This meant he couldn’t even cop a feel!

He couldn’t just keep having Jiayi put him in ”manual,” like before.

His physical fitness was far beyond that of a normal person now, so his stamina and endurance were also extraordinary.

If they kept ”shifting manually,” that woman Jiayi’s hand would be completely worn out...

Another sleepless night. Mengde lay alone in his bed.

He had to say, the feeling of having meat right in front of him but not being able to eat it was true torture!

Mengde was about to call it a night when his phone screen suddenly lit up.

After so many days in the apocalypse, the cellular network was long gone.

The only thing that still worked was text messaging, but even the signal for that was unstable, coming and going.

He figured that in a few more days, when the power grid finally failed, phones would become completely useless.

He opened his phone to look.

”Mengde... c-can you come over...”

The sender was none other than: Bai Jie!

Mengde smiled.

’So she finally couldn’t hold out any longer, huh...’
