The girl’s face still glowed faintly, pink patches of shy color lingering as if they refused to fade. She stood by the entrance, head turned slightly aside, clearly reluctant to go in.
Seeing that, Shirase teased, “Yo...

Kirisu Mafuyu didn’t think there was anything wrong with her words—though she neatly threw the question right back.
Shirase looked helpless. “If I knew, I wouldn’t have asked you.”
“You—”
Kirisu raised a finger t...

Everyone waited for him to explain. Instead, he leisurely picked up his chopsticks, set a cup in front of Nino, and then—

But once he got a clear look at her face, a familiar name instantly surfaced in his mind.
Sawamura Spencer Eriri.
She looked completely different from her usual image—plai...

Just as Shirase stepped out of the kitchen after washing the dishes, Kojima Kana’s voice floated over—light, nervous, and full of expectation.
Turning around, he froze.

“Correct,” the system replied, perfectly serious.

The girl in pure white had quietly ascended the wall without anyone noticing.

Naturally, the commander had tried to assign her guards, but she’d refused outright.
To Ophis, that would have been nothing but a waste of manpower. 2025-10-23 15:31:20 +0000 UTC View Post
“So, what about that monster now?”
Ophis wasn’t surprised by Merlin’s answer. No matter how many times she’d glimpsed the future, the end never changed—though the true enemy stayed hidden. Even if it wasn’t Tiamat herself, it had to be something with similar strength and autho...

As she gave her report, Siduri puffed out her cheeks and glared at Ophis.
She knew full well the King had only been trying to protect her—but thanks to that
Only after more than half the army had safely withdrawn behind the walls did Ophis allow a faint smile to touch her face.
Hmm… Have I been so busy lately that I’ve neglected Enkidu’s request? she wondered, faintly uneasy.
