The state of Durham lost much of its territory and population during the great monster parade fifty years ago. The current government is more of a provisional one. Naturally, tax revenue is low, and the situation is far from prosperous. Despite this, they maintain a state military by collecting and selling monster materials for income.
The soldiers’ discipline is lax, and they don’t seem like regular troops—probably because of this. In a way, they live like adventurers from other countries.… Read more
Thus, the Boy Runs Through the Labyrinth Volume 2 Chapter 1 part 2
After a while…
“Phew! That was scary.”
Fortunately, the Plakio seemed to have low perception. It slowly plucked leaves from the nearby trees and leisurely wandered off. After it was gone, Ur and Shizuku crawled out from the crevice.
“We made it, huh?”
“Let’s not let our guard down yet. There aren’t many places to hide here.”
Ur shook his head at Shizuku’s words. This place was a narrow path sandwiched between towering cliffs.… Read more
How I Came to Call You “Natsuki” Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 2
1
Thursday morning, the second week of May.
As I walked to school from the station, I mentally reviewed my high school life so far.
“For now… I think it’s going… pretty well.”
—In the past, I was someone often called a “nice guy” by those around me.
I couldn’t deny that I deliberately acted the part.
Not because I wanted to be seen as a nice guy, though. Back then, I was just naively idealistic, a little dumber than average, and utterly repulsed by the idea of calculating personal gains in relationships.… Read more
A Teacher, But I’m Feared as a Witch Volume 2 chapter 7 part 4
Perhaps because it was a magic he had never seen before, I heard Cameron’s confused voice. The students too were looking at the young man’s healed body with amazed eyes.
“He’s still lacking blood.”
There’s no problem, but at this rate, it will take a while for him to regain consciousness. Thinking this, I took out a pill I had kept for emergencies. It was Owen’s secret Elven medicine. Despite being called a secret medicine, it can be easily made if you have the ingredients, so there’s no problem.… Read more

Episode 1: [The Butler of Seishinkan]
0/D
—All human relationships should fundamentally be transactional.
This was the creed I carried into high school—and as Kageyuki Sou, a man who firmly believed it, I never imagined things would turn out like this a mere month after enrollment.
The root of it all traces back to the second “Natsuki” I met right after starting school. But to cut to the chase: thanks to her, I’ve secured my place in this new life.… Read more
How I Came to Call You “Natsuki” Volume 1 Prologue part 2
“So? Where’d you see me before?”
Even the way she referred to herself had subtly shifted as she asked me a question with palpable boredom.
─ ─ Honestly, it’s an unbelievable change—like night and day.
Anyone would wear a mask depending on the time and place. Someone who’s always their raw, unfiltered self is probably rare to begin with.
But even so, this was the first time I’d ever seen someone commit this hard to an act.… Read more

Prologue
Back then. She was there—in the corner of the elevator hall.
In front of her stood a grown man. His expression, even his hair, looked stiff, as if he considered everything around him utterly dull.
The man spoke.
[—Choose your friends.]
Low, heavy, thick. A voice brimming with authority, as if declaring a universal truth.
Even though I was hiding in the shadows of the distant hallway—where he couldn’t possibly notice me—for some reason, his words felt like they were directed at me.… Read more

I Tell You Monster. Volume 1 Chapter 4 part 2
Before Norman could wonder about it, she kissed him. By the time he registered the sudden act, he found himself pushed back into the sofa seat.
“Mmnh–“
She even slipped her tongue in. Stunned, he opened his eyes wide only to find hers were open too at point-blank range.
Her bewitching, shimmering odd eyes. The deep kiss lasted over 10 seconds.
“—-Teehee, my my.”
“……..What was that?”
The moment he asked,
a dull thudding sound came from outside the cabin, like something repeatedly falling over.… Read more
