“Welcome, guests! I’m Lenden of the Golden Hammer! Now, hand over your money!”
“Golden Hammer, huh…”
Encountering a member of the infamous Blacksmith Guild, known for their skill and greed, Ur wasn’t sure whether to be happy or annoyed. His expression turned complicated.
“Now, hand over your money.”
Lenden’s unwavering demand for money left Ur half-dumbfounded and half-impressed. It was similar to what he’d seen in the Great Sin City-State of Greed, but it seemed everyone associated with it was the same.… Read more
A Teacher, But I’m Feared as a Witch Volume 2 chapter 10 part 4
[SIDE: Shenley]
When I decided to go to Maple Leaf, I was terribly anxious at first, but as I spent time with everyone, my gloomy feelings changed. With reliable Sensei Aoi and the always cheerful and fun Aile and others by my side, even though we were walking in the Holy City of Maple Leaf, I had the illusion of being on a sightseeing trip to an unknown city.
Meeting Sensei Cameron at the magic academy reminded me a bit of the painful past, but seeing Sensei Aoi silence him with sheer ability made my chest feel lighter.… Read more
Mind-Reading Detective Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 5
“Hmm, I wonder what it could be…”
[Damn! This little brat is acting so confident! I’ll find it quickly and definitely come up with a good excuse! That confidence of yours will be your downfall!]
(No, it’s the opposite. It’s my lifeline)
He’d never think that I haven’t found even the beginning of a clue and am having everyone else deduce.
While this was happening, someone’s mental cry reached my brain.
[Ah!?… Read more
After My Sister Enrolling Volume 3 Chapter 1 Part 5
It took a considerable amount of time for Kanade’s interviews to finish.
In the meantime, I joined the maids’ training, had maids sit on my lap, napping together, being fed with “Ahh~,” and even pulling on maids’ waist ribbons while chanting, “Good indeed! Good indeed!” and “Let’s go!” as they twirled around. Among other things.
And so, the conclusion.
“…We couldn’t obtain any information. I’m sorry.”
“Don’t worry about it.”
Kanade’s shoulders drooped dejectedly.… Read more
I Tell You Monster. Volume 2 Chapter 1 part 3
Detective Harrison Leonard’s office was located in the basement of the Balldlum Police Department.
Sandwiched between the morgue and the autopsy room, the placement felt like a deliberate slight—because it was. His role as the liaison between Cartesius and the police wasn’t publicly acknowledged, and his habit of butting into investigations outside his jurisdiction had earned him no favors among his colleagues.
Not that he cared.
Ever since getting involved with Unlaws years ago—or more precisely, since being recruited by Cartesius—he’d accepted the isolation.… Read more
How I Came to Call You “Natsuki” Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 12
“Kageyuki-san, you’re not mad?”
“Huh? Me?”
“Yeah.”
“No, I’m not mad, but…”
“…I see…”
She gave a small nod, like something clicked for her. Then—
“Well, I look forward to working with you.”
“Wait—now you say that!? After all this!?”
It kinda sounded like she wanted to keep using me for story material.
I wasn’t sure how to feel about that. I might need some time to think it over.… Read more
I , a high school teacher, was transported volume 2 Chapter 7 part 3
In truth, Kimijima had been practicing remote control of trees based on Regress’s advice, but she still hadn’t grasped the feeling. Spells’s approach, grounded in the basics taught at the magic academy, was undoubtedly the correct one.
Spells looked around at the trees in the forest.
“Vines are probably the easiest to use.”
Saying this, he pulled some vines off a tree and tore off the tendril parts. After gathering a few, he returned to Kimijima.… Read more
Spirit Master Who Is Volume 2 Chapter 4 part 5
“Alright, everyone, let’s do this.”
At Owen’s brief command, the spirits scattered to the four corners, each stopping a few hundred meters apart. They drew their swords and plunged them into the ground.
“Four Spirits Sealing Formation.”
Owen knelt, placed his hand on the ground, and activated a spirit technique. A square barrier, incorporating the four elements, expanded from the spirits, enclosing the three of them.
“Well, this should do for now.”… Read more
Corpse King Volume 1 Chapter 3 part 2
“…It’s way bigger than the last time I saw it.”
Well, 180 years would do that… But still, this was unexpected. Was this even allowed, aesthetically?
“Nifl, this tree—”
“It’s celebrated as Gagiur’s Great Tree—a cultural landmark. A tourist attraction, if you will.”
“Oh. Good.”
Garm tugged at my sleeve, staring up in awe.
“King! King! Isn’t this the tree you planted?!”
“Well, ‘planted’ is a strong word… More like ‘dumped.'”… Read more
C-level magic student Volume 2 Chapter 2 part 4
Beside the sniffling Yufia, he spoke while staring at the opposite wall.
“When I said I wanted to be the strongest magician…… You told me I could definitely do it, right…?”
“……”
Yufia buried her face deeper into her knees, but Shion continued.
“My parents, everyone around me… they’re all good people. But not a single one of them actually believes I can become the strongest magician. Some think I’m joking. Others say they support me, but deep down, they think it’s impossible.… Read more
