“That girl is a first-year just like me, but she’s already a princess. How can I accept that when I exist? And on top of that, she doesn’t even seem happy about becoming a princess—it’s like it’s obvious to her. Seriously, I’d love for a creep like bro to make her understand.”
“Who’s a creep?”
“Anyway, go ahead and capture that woman.”
“You say capture like it’s easy, but I don’t have any contact with—”
“Just figure it out yourself and take action.”… Read more
The Girl is Unbeatable Volume 3 Chapter 1 part 3
“Kasumi-chan, you really do love your big brother, don’t you!”
“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!?!?”
While being ruthlessly smothered, Kasumi’s face turned beet red as she argued back.
“T-There’s no way! There’s no way I could love such an unreliable man who smirks while being whipped by a woman like this!”
“Yeah, yeah. In other words, Izumi-kun is kind, right?”
“Hey, foolish brother! This woman, she doesn’t listen at all! What’s going on!?”
“Don’t ask me…”
However, Izumi was finally released.… Read more

Chapter 4: Lorenz’s Spiriting Away
The Austrian ethologist Konrad Lorenz is famous for discovering “imprinting,” where waterfowl chicks follow the first thing they see. There’s even a photo in biology textbooks showing him with just his head poking out of a lake surface, having his hair fiddled with by Greylag Geese from both sides.
True to the impression that photo gives, he was apparently quite the eccentric. Well, I suppose it would be rude to call a Nobel Prize-winning researcher in Physiology or Medicine an eccentric.… Read more

Chapter 9: I’ve Been Kidnapped by an Old Man～～～～～！
Now then, the preparation period for the [Great Masquerade Festival] has begun.
As the lord, Reite-sama has to keep stamping approval after approval on documents for stall permits and public road usage applications, but…
“—Hehehe! Well then, Reite-kun, let’s begin our fun [experiment]…!”
I’ve been brought to the [Demon Forest] by a weird old man.
Why, though?
It all started at lunch.… Read more
I Tell You Monster. Volume 2 Chapter 2 part 11
Cklares, who had just passed by Shizuku, continued her momentum and thrust her sword into the phantom’s chest.
“Hmm?”
How strange, Cklares thought as she felt the sensation travel through her right hand.
Logically, she had only stabbed her blade into empty air—yet there was undeniably a tangible resistance. However, it was lighter and duller than actually piercing a human chest.
A human body consists of skin, fat, organs, bones, and muscle fibers—a complex structure.
But the feedback from the phantom felt closer to slashing through a leather sack filled with water.… Read more

“What would we think… we wouldn’t think anything in particular.”
“Really? Wouldn’t you be a little disappointed?”
“Even if there was a possibility of that, it’s none of Iwama’s business—”
After saying it, I think.
Iwama is kind. She’s incredibly cautious in her consideration, exercising kindness subtly.
She pretended to talk about the rhododendron’s flower language to let Kannabi rest.
Even insisting strongly that she wanted to see the large camphor tree, perhaps that was also—
“Right.… Read more
Abandoned Corporate Drone Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 4
Before I could stop her, a sub-monitor flickered to life, showing the interior of one of the ships. A group of filthy-looking middle-aged men were screaming, spit flying everywhere.
[What the hell was that movement!?]
[Damn it! Shoot it down already! If the main target gets away, we’re screwed!]
[Forget that, look at the gunfire! The ships are breaking without even exploding! What is going on!?]
[How should I know?! Is it some kind of new weapon!?]… Read more
A Teacher, But I’m Feared as a Witch Volume 4 chapter 1 part 2
They must have practiced quite a lot. There were no major points that needed correction. I simply watched once and gave some light advice.
At this rate, the presentation would surely be a very good one. I nodded to myself in relief.
“Well then, since there isn’t much time, I’ll head to the venue first. Everyone, please do your final checks and then head to the venue.”
When I said that, Court spoke with a smile on his face.… Read more
Delta and Gamma Volume 1 Chapter 3 part 6
“It seems certain that what was depicted there was this camphor tree.”
“To arrive at such a truth from the ginkgo’s hidden tree age…”
Kannabi’s breathing was still irregular. I told you so.
But I agreed with what she was saying. If it had been just me, I would have passed over it—from such a small catch, to arrive at the truth of a legend that had transformed over 800 years—
For a while, we gazed vacantly at the giant tree.… Read more
Abandoned Corporate Drone Volume 1 Chapter 1 part 3
[Since this unit only has laws from approximately 12,000 years ago installed, I will respect the Master’s judgment.]
If I were to translate that, it probably means: “Since the laws with no one left to protect them can be ignored, please operate according to modern laws.” It had been doing various things like making me the Representative of the Federation or appointing me as the Captain of this ship, but I could feel that it truly intended to leave everything to me.… Read more
