The knight order of the satellite city-state of Alto was not a particularly large force.
Of course, compared to the great sin city-states, the satellite city-states were smaller in both scale and population, and so the size of their knight orders was proportionate. Naturally, the threat of monsters existed regardless of the city’s size, but the larger, more dangerous monsters often headed toward the more populous great sin city-states.
Mostly, the knights were occupied with maintaining order due to the influx of people and goods at the mobile fortress’s docking port.… Read more

Chapter 21: The Hakase’s Scheme
188: Hakase (drinking in the evening)
I’m usually more of a beer guy, but canned Chūhai is pretty tasty too.
189: Anonymous Combatant
You’re drinking already?
190: Anonymous Combatant
Yeah, some flavors of canned Chūhai you can’t get at izakayas.
191: Hakase (drinking in the evening)
Yup, guzzling down some frozen pizza with the extreme lemon fruit Chūhai, it’s dope.
192: Anonymous Combatant
Reassuring to see you’re still the same old man.… Read more
A Teacher, But I’m Feared as a Witch Volume 2 chapter 9 part 5
[SIDE: Diagio]
After the scheduled audiences and meetings concluded, I reviewed the petition letters and budget reports from last month. The budget had increased from the previous time due to magical research and strengthening of magic academies. Reading this line reminded me of Aoi Kornominato, who should currently be touring the Holy City.
Questioning the methods of my predecessor, who relied heavily on saints, I had commissioned investigations and research into other countries’ magic since becoming Emperor.… Read more
I Tell You Monster. Volume 1 Chapter 5 part 5
“Nooooooooooooormaaaaaannnnn!!”
As the black sky gradually whitened to welcome the morning, a scream rang out.
Who the five turned their gazes toward was Jim, in an appearance too gruesome to call merely covered in wounds.
His entire body was drenched in blood, with broken bones piercing through the flesh everywhere. His arms and legs pointed in strange directions, and his gait was unsteady.
“I saw it! What happened just now! That’s what I’ve been seeking!… Read more
After My Sister Enrolling Volume 3 Chapter 1 Part 2
After parting with Ayano-san, I informed the others of my impending journey.
Yuzuriha-san and Suzuhaa’s reactions were… predictable.
“So, you’re setting out on a journey! Then as your comrade, I must stand by your side and protect you—!”
“And I’m coming too, Big Brother!”
For some reason, the two of them seemed unusually delighted. I wonder if female knights like them need to regularly hunt bandits or goblins to relieve stress… I mused to myself.… Read more
How I Came to Call You “Natsuki” Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 8
At the request of this self-proclaimed fairy who refused to lift a finger, I pushed open the door labeled Second Literature Club – First Clubroom.
The moment I did, the sight of a cluttered room—and one girl sitting inside—greeted me.
“…………”
“————”
The girl inside froze, staring at me with a what the hell? expression.
Can’t blame her—some random guy just walked in carrying a person. As for the fairy on my back?
“I’m home, Mina!”… Read more
I , a high school teacher, was transported volume 2 Chapter 6 part 1
Chapter 6: Regress
A few days after the incident, as the tension gradually began to ease, another adventurer arrived in the village.
Lately, I had been pushing myself hard every day to climb the ranks, so today I decided to take it easy, sleep in, and take a leisurely stroll around the village. As I returned to the village to settle some magic stones, I was called to Yarzak’s office.
“What’s up?”
“Actually, last night, an adventurer arrived.”… Read more
Corpse King Volume 1 Chapter 2 part 7
“A Demon in a Level 3 dungeon?”
“Y-Yes! A subjugation team should be in that realm right now!”
“………..”
“What do you think, Miss?”
The one who called the silent Artel “Miss” was Ted, a Level 6 explorer who served as the tank of “The Valiant Lance.”
Twirling his unkempt beard, he planted his large armored body firmly.
“That’s impossible.”
“I agree. From what I’ve heard, the first missing person disappeared a month ago.… Read more
Spirit Master Who Is Volume 2 Chapter 4 part 1
Chapter 4: In Search of a Contract Spirit
“Finally, things have calmed down, huh?”
“Yeah…”
Sitting side by side on a bench in the courtyard, Gareth and I exchanged those words as we absentmindedly gazed at the academy buildings.
Several days had passed since the attack, and the academy had finally regained its composure. Classes and the ranking matches had resumed, and everyday life was gradually returning to normal.
As for the damage, there were injuries among the disciplinary committee members, but no fatalities.… Read more
Become the Mastermind Volume 1 Chapter 6 part 4
“If I may be so bold as to return those words to you, Your Majesty – could you provide an explanation for the outrageous actions your Empire has taken against us?”
“…Indeed, it would seem this is no simple matter to settle.”
Seeing that Feiyu did not falter despite addressing her assault, Klaus received the situation gravely and nodded solemnly.
“Then let us hear both sides in detail — Grand Duke Ornament.”
Calling out the name of the party Feiyu mentioned, Klaus glared silently.… Read more
