Here they were, girls enamored with the same boy – rivals in love, essentially. Under normal circumstances, just sitting at the same table would be miraculous for those destined to harbor resentment, envy and fight until one emerged victorious.
And yet right now, these three were bonded by an intense sense of fellow feeling. Any lingering hostility from the previous day had dissipated, replaced by a profound kinship befitting comrades.
Between bites of the spicy curry, Hakua invoked that legendary tale of friendship.… Read more
After My Sister Enrolling Volume 2 Chapter 3 part 4
5 (The Duchess of Uentas’ Perspective)
A few days after leaving Frontier Lord Lohengrin’s castle,
after passing through the border with a forged ID and entering a small fortress beyond, the envoy party bowed their heads as one when Ayano entered.
Ayano let out a relieved sigh as she removed her overcoat, asking,
“How was everything, Minister? Were you all doing well while I was away?”
“We managed somehow…Oh my, Your Grace. It seems your chest has become even flatter in the short time since we last met?”… Read more
I Tell You Monster. Volume 1 Chapter 3 part 8
A [Deviant Form]’s power could be extended to their clothing.
The abnormal ability takes effect by defining the clothes wrapped around oneself as part of one’s being. Otherwise, depending on the type of ability, one might end up completely naked every time they use it. This is a more flexible point than [Metamorphosis].
However, it’s not something that can be done immediately.
One cannot do it without the necessity and attachment to recognize it as part of one’s own body.… Read more
Scientist for an Evil Organization Volume 1 Chapter 14 part 2
542: Hakase
And finally, Fiona-tan and others came to our house.
Me: “Ah, Fiona-chan. Lurun-chan, and Eres-chan too. Welcome, glad you could come.”
By the way, I started calling the Lost Fairies girls by their first names.
They use first names too, to distinguish from my sister. Come to think of it, their family names are closer to their real names.
Eres: “Excuse us!”
Lurun: “Hello, Hakase-san!”
Fio: “Excuse us. Thank you for having us today, Hakase-san.”… Read more

Chapter 4
“Was he outstanding as a person of Eisenhud?”
If asked that, Kurtz would undoubtedly shake his head.
After all, although he didn’t get angry, he was often bewildered by Artesia.
“…Kurtz, I’ve told you many times.”
Standing in front of him, Artesia folded her arms and narrowed her eyes.
“Come at me like you mean to beat me to a pulp.”
“A servant can’t possibly hit their master with all their might…?!”… Read more
I , a high school teacher, was transported volume 1 chapter 8 part 3 + Afterword
“Are you sure you’ll be okay?”
“If it gets dangerous, Sensei will help me!”
“O-oh, right.”
…Hm? As we’re talking, I sense something coming from up ahead. It might be quite a large group.
“Kimijima. Something’s coming.”
“Yes.”
We hurriedly slip into the forest at the side of the road. We hide among the thick leaves, both of us holding our breath. “Bear with it for a bit, okay?” Kimijima says as she closes the lid of her bag to hide Mera.… Read more
Corpse King Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 3
“—A person?”
A figure writhing on the ground, struggling to crawl forward.
A young man in his late teens—on the verge of death.
The moment she saw him, Asha’s decision was made.
“Hey! Are you alright?!”
She abandoned her sword and rushed to his side.
Had he been attacked? Gotten lost? Countless possibilities, but saving him came first.
“Stay with me! What happened?!”
“…Uah… haa… ra…”
“Hara?… Read more

Chapter 7: The Magic Academy of the Holy Capital
Light streams through the window, naturally waking me up. As I breathe in the cool air, the fog clouding my mind gradually clears.
“…Mmm,”
I let out a breath as I stretch and rise from the bed.
“Ah, good morning.”
“Good morning.”
As I sit up, I hear greetings from in front of me. It’s Shenley and Liz. The two of them seem to have been relaxing in their cute pajamas, sitting on the sofa near the door facing each other.… Read more
Corpse King Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 2
Eljudnir.
The name of the mansion where the secret society Helheim makes its base.
A place beyond the world’s reckoning, hidden even from perception by unfathomable magic—where none but Hel, the Corpse King, and his eight elite officers, the [Eight Precepts], are permitted to tread.
A woman with pale, bluish-white hair walks down the mansion’s halls, her beautiful features twisted darkly as she exhales a long sigh.
One hundred eighty years have passed since the Corpse King vanished.… Read more
Spirit Master Who Is Volume 2 Chapter 2 part 3
“Alright. But if things get dangerous, step back immediately, okay?”
“Of course.”
Confirming Misha’s nod, I stood up and asked Maris to lead us to the scene.
“We’ll talk about the Grand Spirit Martial Festival another time.”
“……Yes.”
I thought I could use this chaos to dodge the issue, but no such luck.
The scene shifts slightly earlier than when Rourke and Misha received the report about the intruders.… Read more
