[Ahhhhh, I’ve seen that in manga too! It’s so cool!!!]
Here’s one otaku – me who’s skillfully managing to whisper and shout at the same time in an extremely low volume.
Of course, a cool scene featuring my favorite character would resonate with an otaku like me!
[Fan service!? Is this fan service!? — Hah]
Although she probably couldn’t hear my quiet fangirling, she must have sensed that the serious atmosphere had dissipated.
Kushina, standing several meters in front of me, stamped her foot once.… Read more

In Oria, a country known for its art, Mario was struggling to make ends meet. Although he was once a promising young painter, the prolonged war against the Demon King’s army had drastically reduced the number of people willing to buy paintings.
“Why has it come to this… Do I have no choice but to give up painting and find a job?”
Mario had been praised as a genius since childhood for his artistic talent.… Read more

Adventurers’ Guild – Greed Branch Training Ground: Second Quarter, Day Two
“Hey, rookies. Good morning. How are you feeling?”
“Exhausted, but more importantly, two of the kids you worked over are dead.”
“They’re still breathing. Good. Today, we’re heading to the labyrinth. Kill some monsters. The goal is twenty.”
“That’s double last time.”
“Well, we can always go for a run.… Read more
After My Sister Enrolling Volume 1 Chapter 4 part 6
Sixty-three seconds later, when I thought it was all over,
the attacks towards Yuzuriha, prepared for her imminent death, suddenly eased, as if a thread had snapped.
It was evident that the Ogre King had been defeated.
(Even at this distance… you narrowly saved me again, my partner…?)
My partner seemed to be a bit too good at saving my life—
That was Yuzuriha’s solitary musings.

We fought relentlessly for three days and nights, unable to get a wink of sleep. … Read more

“Seems like a [Gem Golem] that’s usually in the crystal zone of the middle layer has wandered up to the upper layer. Maybe the labyrinth’s activation period has started.”
If it encounters rookies, they’ll be toast, Gogo said half-jokingly, half-seriously. Karme glanced at Glenn and Rodz. Rodz had a stern look, while Glenn shrugged and said lightly.
“They might die, those kids.”
“Is this the time to be saying that!!!?”
Karme dashed back into the labyrinth.… Read more
Spirit Master Who Is Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 5
“…”
I silently met Ogun’s fierce gaze.
The eyes of everyone around us shifted from me to Ogun, stabbing him with various emotions—anger, disbelief, curiosity.
But Ogun didn’t seem to care at all. Ignoring the stares, he continued to spew insults at me in a loud voice.
“That’s why you always fight using those minor and low-ranked spirits, right? Because you’re a loser who doesn’t have a contracted spirit!”
“Ogun, that’s enough!… Read more

Chapter 4: Red Eyes, the Deadly Blade
In a dimly lit ghost town lined with abandoned factories, a shadowy figure ran, gasping for breath. It was a woman, her hood pulled low, concealing her eyes.
She swung her arms and legs with all her might, running desperately forward as if fleeing from something.
“N-No way…”
Turning a corner to escape the gaze behind her, she darted into an alley. Mercilessly, it led to a dead end.… Read more
My Oshi’s Enemy Volume 1 Chapter 2 part 2
I quickly check my pocket watch. It’s exactly one minute before the escort vehicle is due to pass through here.
This girl still has an frighteningly precise internal clock, I think to myself, amazed.
I lower my gaze to the street below and let it slide towards where it leads.
And there it is– coming.
“Well, shall we go?”
“Yes.”
We simultaneously throw ourselves off the rooftop and soar through the air.
Falling towards the middle of the road, when we’re just a few meters from the ground–
–I focus my vision.… Read more

“That’s right. To get stronger in a short time, you need to do at least this much. I don’t usually buy this potion because it’s not cost-effective, but…”
Trao smiled pleasantly.
“It’s cheap for your sake.”
‘…What’s this? I’m not happy at all. I wish he’d say such words when giving a more thoughtful gift.’
“Oh, don’t worry. This isn’t the only one. I’ve prepared plenty.”
“Plenty?”
‘I felt like I’d been sentenced to death.’… Read more

“Just because, I jokingly suggested that I’d like to enter the Ogre’s Great Forest.
I do have genuine interest, but I expected to be opposed, going into the forest of demons where we never know what might be there.
However,
Yuzuriha-san and Suzuha readily agreed and even offered to come along.”
“If it’s Suzuha’s brother, there should be no problem. Ah, but in case we get surrounded by Ogres, I’ll accompany you and protect your back.” … Read more
