After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 776

"You dare!" Grandma yelled, "They’re our inlaws! They’re family!"

"I will not marry scum!" She said. "And how did they survive so intact under Fargo’s reign? Knowing how they are still alive and complete, I can only imagine what they sacrificed!"

Winona was quite accurate about this. This family survived by pandering to Fargo. They were basically spies and tattletales among the masses. The number of people who ’went missing’ after information from them was easily a few dozen.

Some of them didn’t even do anything wrong. They just annoyed one of the members of the family, and were framed enough to lose their lives.

However, they were sly enough not to be open about it, and they were lucky those who knew had perished in the war, so their entire family was safe from the purging Althea did in Fargo back then.

Winona didn’t know this but she wouldn’t be surprised if she found out. Whatever the case was, she definitely couldn’t sleep under the same roof as them!

At this, a few more people—a good-looking group reeking of bad morals—appeared next to grandma. Right next to her was the so-called fiance, Eric.

"Stop being so harsh, wife," he said, gritting Winona’s—and Ansel’s—nerves. "We’re family. Nothing matters, as long as we’re together."

He had the audacity to step forward in an attempt to hold her arm. She raised her feet and kicked him in the shin.

"OOUGH!!" He yelled and the others reacted, surrounding him in comfort and glaring at her.

"What are you doing?!"

"How dare you!" The mother even screeched like a shrew, gesturing to take revenge.

But Winona had some self-defense skills—much better than these damned nouveau riche asses—and she threw him to the back.

"OOUGH!"

Then another one—a cousin—gestured to get to her, and Ansel was prepared to intervene when the man raised his hand and disappeared.

"What?! Where’s my nephew!?"

"Prison."

"WHAT?"

Winona chuckled, though inside she was still boiling from anger.

"Didn’t you know? Certain people are exempted from the rules," She said, "I can defend myself very well. I can even beat you up without repercussions, but the same will not be said to you."

This was true. Like the guards could hurt people in self-defense, the Elders and her friends and family could do the same. _{fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com}

As for why the woman didn’t get into prison after trying to attack her, it was likely the force value was so small she was tagged as a non-threat.

"Abuse! ABUSE!!" They yelled though the farm villas were far apart and no one even heard their pleas. Even if they did, no one would care.

Winona sneered and turned back, leaving them behind.

"COME BACK HERE!" Grandma yelled, "GET HIM OUT OF PRISON!"

"Go bail him out yourself!" She yelled, "I’m outta here!"

Winona angrily stomped to the gate and was surprised to see Ansel there.

"You…" Winona mumbled with a weak voice, and her sudden softening was a stark contrast to the Godzilla she was 2 seconds ago.

It softened Ansel’s heart and he approached her. He stopped a meter away though, while Winona looked at him guardedly.

Behind her, Eric gritted his teeth and stood up, forcing himself to follow her. He was especially angry when he saw the famed redhead in the vicinity.

"You! I heard about you two!" He yelled.
