Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 621 291: Hunter and Prey (Part 3)

Stop making him laugh.

Entering the Cursed Dungeon, who's the prey, who's the Hunter, it all depends on your own skills.

Even Peace, if they dare follow in, will surely be lost and never return!

Achoo!

Wu Chang sneezed and rubbed his itchy nose.

After having his Attribute suppressed, his body seemed to become fragile; just a stroll outside at night and now he's catching a cold.

Erin looked at the returning Wu Chang and asked, "Everything went smoothly?"

Wu Chang boasted, "Of course, the people here are enthusiastic and hospitable, heard I needed something, they risked their lives to shove money and influence into my hands, I felt embarrassed."

"What about Amber?"

A motherly glow appeared on Erin's face as she softly said, "Amber is already asleep. She said she feels safer sleeping in the attic, so I didn't force him."

"This child is too pitiful, with such heavy defenses in his heart, needs to change slowly, bit by bit."

Wu Chang shrugged, "Don't worry, I know. How is it that I don't see you for a few hours and Beautiful Miss Erin has turned into Mother Erin."

Speaking of which, Wu Chang suddenly remembered something, rubbed his hands together, and excitedly said:

"If Amber is sleeping upstairs, does that mean the master bedroom is just for the two of us?"

Erin's face turned a little red, without answering.

Wu Chang had been worried that Amber would huddle in the attic, which wasn't beneficial for them getting to know each other, but it seems this kid is not clueless at all, rather, he's too knowledgeable.

Amber, you've done well!

Wu Chang hastily opened the bedroom door, then was dumbfounded at the sight of the Light of Steadfastness lying on the bed ahead of him.

What about trust between people?

The next morning, the Wu family appeared neatly at the breakfast table.

Perhaps it was just his imagination, Wu Chang felt Amber's attitude towards him had improved a bit, although the trust progress bar hadn't moved, from a dangerous stranger he had upgraded to a suspicious stranger.

After breakfast, the family drove to Nokes Primary School. During the commute, Wu Chang saw players who had done their homework queuing up early to get relief food.

Wonder if after receiving it, they'd exclaim, "We're eating again today, guys!"

Nokes Primary School has strict supervision, with strict registration for vehicles entering and leaving, allowing entry for the family of three only after everything checked out.

When getting off the car, Erin asked Amber, "Are you sure you don't need me to accompany you to talk to your teacher?"

Amber shook his head and expressionlessly said, "No need, I'm used to it."

Erin furrowed her brow, seemingly a little distressed.

Originally, Wu Chang wanted to ask this question; he's a sports teacher, going to the office is more convenient than for Erin, the school nurse.

Erin suddenly taking his line left him momentarily speechless.

But when Amber turned to leave, his gaze paused on him for a moment, he's sure it wasn't just an illusion, at least 0.01 seconds.

As a father, he had to say something.

He cleared his throat, catching Amber's attention, then said:

"Protect yourself at school. If someone gossips about you behind your back, give them a good kick in the butt. If anyone dares to fight back, although I can't lay hands on them directly, I'll make them run laps until they're sick."

Children like Amber at this age are at a stage of pure evil, capable of doing bad things with no mental burden and feeling justified.

Like bullying.

Amber, with her tragic background and the adoptive family continuously having incidents, even the orphanage director said she's a troublesome little girl, is more susceptible to bullying.

Confronting bullying requires a heavy-handed approach.

Amber glanced at Wu Chang, clearly not as obedient as when dealing with Erin, and just responded with a "Hmm."

Wu Chang wrinkled his nose, raising a child is really hard.

Upon entering the office building, Wu Chang and Erin, the newlywed couple, immediately drew everyone's attention.

Erin blended into the dungeon through the True Walker, her beauty restrained, transitioning from a God to a human, yet even so, she was still no less beautiful than any film star of the time.

Plus, the elegance and sanctity radiating from Erin's very bones, just one look couldn't be taken away.

In contrast, although Wu Chang's attractiveness wasn't as stunning, he excelled in his robust physique and brisk aura, that Fighting Master's aggressiveness exuded a special charm.

Though not as conspicuous as Erin, at least he stood out like a turkey among chickens.

The entire morning, Nokes Primary School seemed to revolve around them.

Many little boys, desperate to see the new beautiful school nurse, didn't hesitate to feign injuries, seizing the opportunity to catch a glimpse while getting medicine.

After seeing, they wandered over to Wu Chang's desk, pleading to become his apprentice, to train their bodies, to grow up and marry Erin.

In short, Nokes Primary School became exceptionally lively because of the two's arrival.

The last class before lunch, during class time, Wu Chang finally got some peace.

He casually tore up two scribbled challenge letters and tossed them into the trash bin, then glanced at today's weather.

Bright and sunny, he could grab some groceries after work.

He turned to look at Kelly, the math teacher, and asked, "Sorry, those boys were too wild just now, disrupting our previous conversation. I want to know more about Amber from you."

"Before educating her, I think I lack a basic understanding of her, hoping you as Amber's teacher could assist me."

The circumstances around Wu Chang and Erin's adoption of Amber were already known by the office teachers.

Kelly complimented Wu Chang, "Sean, you and your fiancée are kind-hearted people, your virtues shine like gold."

"I admire your kindness, but I must remind you, adopting Amber may be a mistake, may bring you a lot of trouble. Due to her growth environment, she is prone to lose control, to do uncontrollable things when stimulated."

"For example…"

Mid-sentence, Wu Chang suddenly sensed something and turned to look out the window.

He saw a shadow flash by and heavily crash into the flower bed below.

Who is so inconsiderate, littering from up high is dangerous!

But why was the garbage that just got thrown down so big?

Wu Chang's office was on the second floor, he opened the window and looked down, seeing a little boy lying spreadeagle on the shrubbery.

He looked up, just in time to see a head quickly retract back on the top floor's mast.

If he wasn't wrong, the one he locked eyes with was Amber.

"Ah! Someone's fallen off the building, quick, save them!"

Listening to the screams and commotion outside, Wu Chang scratched his head.

He did say this morning, if bullied, give a good kick to the bully's butt.

But he didn't say to kick them off the building!
