Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2101

Wilbur grabbed the old man's hand. The next second, the old man tightened his grip once more. Wilbur applied force in the opposite direction, pushing back against the old man's strength. Yet the old man quickly yanked Wilbur behind him from a different point of strength, hurling him heavily against the ground.

"Not bad, but you're still lacking a little. You're running out of time, though. If we don't head there soon, the merfolk will come looking for us. If a lot of them come here, our world might be doomed."

Wilbur got to his feet. "So, you'd go even if I don't, right?"

"Exactly. Now listen up, I'm going to tell you the secret to wrestling. First, you must find a fixed point. Then you need to defend yourself in the opposite direction of the force that your opponent exerts. Lastly, adapt as you go. That will solve half of your problems."

"I see. Thank you, sir. I'll remember that."

"Let's go."

The old man turned to walk ahead, and Wilbur scrambled to follow after him. The two of them walked in a line and quickly reached the foot of Mount Taite. They each took a deep breath and then began to climb. Due to the path being mostly covered in snow, the climb was quite a feat on its own.

The two men took two whole hours just to make it to the top of the mountain. The mountain breeze whistled through the air as they looked down. Sure rough, a huge lake had formed at the entrance of the volcano. For some reason, the water of the lake was a murky black color. Wilbur hurled a rock down and was able to see that the lake was almost endlessly deep.

"Sir, this lake looks really deep," Wilbur said.

"We haven't got much time. Cut the crap and go!"
