In the morning, a letter from the capital reached Marissa's office. It was from Count Evesys, requesting the return of Rebecca and her companions to Evesys House. Marissa promptly called her new knights to discuss the situation.
"Rebecca, I've received a letter from Evesys House asking for ...

Hiro leveled up after what happened yesterday with Cecile and Nana. Looking at the options, he chose Oxygen Storage. He considered Poison Injection, which could be he...
2025-05-29 09:02:20 +0000 UTC View PostQuick Question: Which story are you reading here?
2025-05-27 04:14:12 +0000 UTC View Post“Well, well, I wish you luck with the eggs. By the way, these are magic beasts or monsters. So, they’ll need mana. I didn’t mention it before since both of you are mages. It shouldn’t be an issue.”
“Magic beasts?” Alicia tilted her head. Somewhere in the deep recesses of her m...
2025-05-25 17:41:16 +0000 UTC View Post“Anne!” Alicia waved toward Anne, who sulked near a wooden house. The girl turned toward Alicia, clearly annoyed.
“...What do you want?” Anne scowled.
“Why the long face, Anne?” Alicia asked as she skipped toward her.
“Well, unlike you, I’m not a mage. My ...
2025-05-25 12:04:47 +0000 UTC View PostJames looked at the jungle before him. He then turned to his soldiers.
“Here. I gave you ten bullets and a dozen arrows. You may use them if you see an enemy. If you got a bow skill and coins, upgrade it to level 5 to get a weapon skill,” James said.
“Nobody goes anywhere al...
[Would you like to modify your body? Y/n]
[Available body parts:

James ignored the Chimera skill because his current body parts were better than the lizardmen that lay dead bef...
2025-05-25 06:52:48 +0000 UTC View PostDawn arrived. However, the army didn’t form ranks. Marissa and the general sighed in relief—they wouldn’t have to fight today.
“Can Hiro heal more soldiers?” the general asked. But healing required nutrients. While the supply was secure, it didn’t mean they had an abundan...
2025-05-23 16:20:03 +0000 UTC View Post“Here we are—Newstar,” Jonathan said.
“Welcome to Newstar, Miss Lily!” a receptionist greeted us with a wide, practiced smile. She stood up from her chair and began leading us down the corridor.
I tilted my head. At Shirayuki, a receptionist was expected to stay glued...
2025-05-23 05:55:56 +0000 UTC View PostToday was a rest day. Alicia didn’t have anything to do. She could’ve simply lazed around in bed, but without computer games to keep her busy, boredom set in fast. So, she skulked around the gate.
The reason she did this was because she was forbidden to do it. She was supposed to...
2025-05-18 11:57:47 +0000 UTC View Post“Eli, Alicia, from this day onward, you will study magic for a full month,” Count Shadowstep said as he summoned both of them to his office.
“Really? I thought we’d only start next week!” Eli beamed at the news.
“Well, the capital is eager to finally have another hi...
2025-05-18 05:35:33 +0000 UTC View PostAt dawn, an army began to rally a few hundred meters from Quantora Village. They didn’t bother hiding themselves, so Quantora’s soldiers immediately sounded the alarm. Troops gathered and manned the walls within minutes—they had finished preparing before the Latvin soldiers had even ...
2025-05-17 05:12:50 +0000 UTC View PostI teleported to one of my mana eyes inside the school building. The world spun violently as I was thrown into the student council’s room.
“Gah!” I groaned, clutching my stomach as nausea overwhelmed me. “I shouldn’t have eaten that steak…”
“The food is innocent,...
2025-05-17 04:15:59 +0000 UTC View PostWhen the government said warehouse, they didn't mean a single warehouse. They meant a warehouse district near the ports. Once again, James, who was merely an ignorant civilian, didn't know such things.
“Hm… this district was not taken by a single dungeon.” James read t...
2025-05-17 01:39:10 +0000 UTC View PostJames kinda knew there were others that raided dungeons, but he didn’t know they formed guilds. He thought they would only form teams like him with Sanders and Kouki. He was correct—most survivors did just that. Only a few had gone all the way to establish their own guilds in their own countr...
2025-05-16 16:21:39 +0000 UTC View PostHiro was alert. He didn’t need to sleep, but when his host slept, his senses were limited to his tentacle. Fortunately, thanks to his metamorphic ability, he could regenerate an eye within the tentacle to scout his surroundings.
His appearance resembled something straight out of a Lovecra...
2025-05-11 14:32:03 +0000 UTC View PostAlicia woke up in a white room.
Before her sat a goddess. Her goddess, Sistielle, maybe. (She didn't actually worship her; she was just leeching off her blessings.)
Golden hair flowed from the goddess’s head down past her hips. Her bountiful breasts, cupped together by a pristine wh...
2025-05-10 07:09:27 +0000 UTC View Post“Hello, Jonathan. May I help you?” I called him as soon as school was over.
“Yuri, my dear. Can we talk? It’s about yesterday.”
My cheeks suddenly went hot when he called me dear. Does that mean I’m important? No—this is just him sweet-talking me. I have to be str...
2025-05-09 11:50:11 +0000 UTC View PostThe guild owned the whole floor. At the lobby, many people were lounging around, playing games on the sofa. A beautiful girl acted as a receptionist. With respect, she bowed toward James.
“Please come this way, Mr. James. We have been waiting for you.” She then led James to his room. It...
2025-05-09 05:15:30 +0000 UTC View Post“Sorry? You said you failed? But the dam was freed, right?”
“The dungeon core was destroyed. The last floor, which was supposed to be empty, spawned a monster. That monster took the dungeon core into its body. I had to destroy the core to kill the monster,” James sighed.
“I ...
2025-05-09 05:03:23 +0000 UTC View PostEli tiptoed out of her chambers and into the hallway.
She had little experience sneaking around luxury manors like this.
Her time as a child soldier had mostly taught her how to maneuver through towns or deserts—evading artillery strikes or assassinating American soldiers. Her later...
2025-05-04 16:56:30 +0000 UTC View PostAfter working until late at night, the group decided to rest when they reached their limit.
Unlike the rest, Hiro never slept. He could rest and make time pass faster for himself, but he had never gone unconscious since becoming a parasitic tentacle. He considered that a blessing—he could...
2025-05-02 07:32:10 +0000 UTC View Post“Ahh!! I knew I couldn’t trust him! Why am I still reacting to his words?! I even thought he wasn’t so bad! I thought he had repented!” one of my clones cried out. She was the more emotionally open one, always saying what the rest of us were too embarrassed to admit.
I agreed...
2025-05-02 05:22:48 +0000 UTC View PostThe ankylosaurus charged at him again. This time, James didn’t fight it head-on. He slid under its belly, his sword slashing at the soft underbelly. It was merely for a moment, but Something drew James' gaze as the boss monster charged past him—a green light shone at the corner of his eye. Wh...
2025-05-01 15:47:06 +0000 UTC View PostNone even complained about the mechanical raptor James had. James noticed it was weird, but he dismissed it as system intervention. It was just like in games—even when you went naked or wore a clown suit, none of the NPCs even talked about it. He often dropped his leather bag and none of the mo...
2025-05-01 14:07:00 +0000 UTC View PostA messenger from Daneswald came the very next day, while a company of knights on horseback arrived in the evening. Without Marissa’s prompting, they immediately went to scout her former village.
Marissa’s worries about her incorrect reports proved to be unwarranted, as the scouts...
2025-04-26 17:18:46 +0000 UTC View PostI hesitated. Should I call him, or should I leave a message?
“What’s wrong?” Felicia asked.
“Never mind…” I replied.
In the end, I chose to call him. The phone rang for a full minute before it was finally picked up.
“Jonathan? I heard you were...
2025-04-26 11:51:40 +0000 UTC View PostTo say that Count Shadowstep was in a happy mood was an understatement. Not only had he gained a mage from his own bloodline, but his territory had also been blessed with another mage—one of even higher rank.
Moreover, she had asked for employment of her own accord.
"Hey! Bow deeper...
2025-04-26 09:51:03 +0000 UTC View Post“Well then. I shall be on my way. Let us meet again. I hope we can borrow your powers for the greater good of this territory. Um... I’m sorry, but I have yet to receive your name. My name is Elidranthia Shadowstep, the first daughter of Count Shadowstep.” Eli curtsied before Alicia.<...
2025-04-26 06:48:41 +0000 UTC View Post“I’m late!!!” Alicia shrieked as the sun shone through the open window on a late spring morning. It was the day of her mage examination.
John, being the workaholic dad he was, wasn’t there to wake Alicia up. He had to serve as a guard for the count’s daughter, who would als...
