Arbiter.
It is the very first combat suit I made with crappy skills. I didn’t have Miku, an advanced AI, or the small nuclear reactor on its chest at that time. It could barely be used for fifteen to twenty minutes before draining its battery. If I used a special attack, it could bottom o...

More than half a year had passed since Nobu’s disappearance.
The time ratio between worlds became unstable at times—like the ocean. Without a stable anchor, the time between the two worlds could be distorted. It is one of the things Suimei explored after studying the other world.

I settled everything that has to be done. It is mainly coordinating with Hermes Familia to handle the aftermath of the next big thing I planned to occur.
Once Asfi-san gathers sufficient evidence of Ishtar Familia colliding with them—through their logs—it would be the time they get appr...

After arriving at the familia home, Hephaestus-sama greeted the three of us. Filvis and Ein aren’t in the state to continue this night. It left me and Hephaestus-sama alone in her office.

There wasn't any significant effects.
From the moment I declared checkmate, the faker disappeared. It was pushed back to its previous place—the location where 'The Root' resides. From our connection, I knew how the [Order] side took advantage of its weakness and thoroughly erased it. Ther...

Twelve years.
That was how long it took Dionysus to lay his plans out.
From the initial planning up to the execution, he never made a fatal mistake.

After taking down the Demi-spirits, we dealt with the aftermath. That includes further investigation of Knossos’ eighteen floors. We couldn’t let go of potential troubles such as loose violas and Evilus remnants.

Deafening silence filled the room.
Nobody had expected the outcome to be like this. Sirius, a level three adventurer, completely dominated the cursed spirit. Its strength is no less than a level seven, yet he managed to do it.
An entire four level gap!
It’s not just surprising...

Gugalanna is a strength-type Demi-spirit. I have seen her strength during Loki Familia’s first dive. She was supposed to be Ishtar’s trump card to deal with Ottar. It took Gareth-san, Tiona-san, and Tione-san to defeat it.
It has enchant magic akin to Aiz-san’s magic. It is something ...

What does it feel to be a 'character'?
