Chapter 412 – All Three Gods Are Now Useless!

“Whew… finally, you’re back to normal!”

Venti who is on the girl from again took a sip of her wine and waved casually at the green-haired girl stepping out from the villa.

“We seriously thought you were going to suffer memory degradation too. You suddenly looked more like a god than any Archon, even in their prime.”

“I would never ‘degrade.’ It was just a tiny after-effect of getting stronger. And it’s all gone now.”

C.C. crossed her long, bare le...

626 – A Battle of Wives? No… A Battle of Fathers!

To Kyousuke, Sakura was like a kite—one that hadn’t quite learned how to ride the wind.

Sometimes she’d soar high into the sky, sometimes she’d dip low, but no matter what, she always came back to him, following that invisible string that tied them together.

Eventually, the girl named Yamauchi Sakura ran out of energy.

“Kyousuke, carry me~”

This time, her soft Kyoto accent wasn’t just playful, it was pure, spoiled affection.

Kyousuke crouch...

625 – Unlike Them, I’m Special

“Are there any other celebrities filming here today? Is this considered a production accident? Don’t your crew coordinate things beforehand?”

“All those fans who were supposed to gather here have run off to the front. What do we do now?”

“Seriously, what’s with the entertainment industry these days? Public figures should know how to maintain public order!

Holding a fan event in a park where people are just out for a walk—what kind of company even allows that?...

624 – The Happiness of 372

Students from Kyoto University were... something else.

Never mind the ones who clasped hands and rested them on each other’s shoulders to form a “table.”

There were even two guys who stacked themselves on top of each other like a Power Rangers Megazord, bowing in unison before shouting, “Hojou-sensei, please take a seat!”

Even someone as composed as Hojou Kyousuke couldn’t keep a straight face. If he actually sat on them, wouldn’t that...

Chapter 244 — Being Ignored For Months

‘Gulp.’

Kei stared at the name glowing on his phone screen and swallowed hard. His throat felt dry.

After a deep breath to steady himself, he answered it.

“G-Good evening, Sensei. Is there… something you need from me?” he said, forcing his voice to sound polite.

“Oh, Aoki,” Hiratsuka’s familiar voice came through the speaker, her voice sound casual and smooth… but beneath it, Kei could feel the storm...

Chapter 411 — I Can’t Handle This Anymore

Nagami’s calm, hyper-rational form during “post-ecstasy clarity mode,” had left such a strong impression on Elysia that she instinctively stepped up her offensive charm as a countermeasure.

The casual arm wrapping around his shoulder… the subtle lean-in… the almost-embrace.

All of her action is very deliberate.

As a girl, she had complete confidence in her own beauty and allure.

Men are instinctively drawn to charming women, that’s just biological ...

Chapter 410 — A Special Kind of “Educated Illiterate”

When judging someone’s true strength, the assessment must be comprehensive: energy control, weapon capability, armor performance, physical condition, Honkai energy reserves, combat will, experience… even luck.

Every one of these is a crucial factor in determining how powerful a person really is.

And as the thirteen remaining top-tier assets of the Previous Era, the Fusion Warriors excel in all of them.

Yet Nagami had crushed them effortlessly like scolding unruly childre...

623 – The Loyal Return to Kyoto

The clear river water flowed gently between the stepping stones as Sakura skipped forward, hand in hand with Kyousuke.

It was as if she’d truly returned to her childhood.

The moment she landed on the opposite bank, she turned around and hopped back again—almost like she wanted to show the person she loved how she once ruled the playground with her impressive river-jumping skills.

Or perhaps, with every playful leap across that ancient river, she was trying to take Kyousu...

622 – The Son-in-Law of Kyoto                              

Kyoto didn’t just lack an airport even its subway system wasn’t exactly what you’d call “developed.”

Maybe it was because there were too many historical buildings that needed protecting, or maybe the people of Kyoto simply preferred the slow, swaying rhythm of their city buses.

When it came to urban planning, Tokyo was a whole different story if they wanted to build a road, they just built it.

No worries about heritage sites or stubborn holdouts; someone had long s...

621 – Do Kids These Days Even Know What “Public Decorum” Means?!

If Sawamura-san ever found out what her “assistant” was doing back then, that “assistant” would probably be downgraded to “dead meat” in seconds.

“Let’s go for a nice, relaxing walk!”

That’s what Yamauchi Sakura said.

So, Kyousuke smiled, politely said goodbye to the reporters, editors, and literary colleagues around him…

Only to find himself, ten minutes later, sitting inside a Shinkansen.

A “walk,” huh? Wasn’t this a bit muc...

Chapter 243 — Scarier Than Horror Story

After a short soak in the onsen, Kei stepped out of the changing room, now dressed in a light cotton robe provided by the inn.

The fabric was soft against his skin, still warm from the bath.

He walked toward a vending machine glowing faintly in the sea breeze.

The night air was crisp, brushing against his damp hair and bare neck.

The moment he stepped out of the steam, the chill hit him like a cold whisper from the waves.

“...Cold,” he muttered under his brea...

Chapter 242 — The Ascended Bocchi

On Thursday, the group went through a short rehearsal.

There wasn’t a full run-through this time—the performance would be broadcast live, after all.

Once that wrapped up, Kessoku Band spent a bit longer in the recording room for some light practice.

The song had been chosen by Kei even before they left Japan, and they’d been rehearsing it for weeks.

When practice finally ended, the girls decided to take one last stroll around Okinawa.

This time, they visite...

Chapter 409 — The Greatest Possibility!

Kevin’s calm, rippleless eyes suddenly contracted, disbelief flickering across his expression.

Shock and confusion still lingered on his face.

The wind howled past him, tugging at his short white hair — yet it couldn’t blow away the tremor in his heart.

Right before his eyes, mere inches away, floated drops of water — perfectly formed, reflecting the icy-blue world around them.

Beautiful… and terrifying.

And it wasn’t just the two before his face.

Chapter 408 — My Turn Now

Across the frozen wasteland, streams of dazzling light tore through the sky—like countless shooting stars carving fiery scars across the endless sky.

Waves of Honkai energy twisted into violent vortices.

Howling winds slashed through the air like blades, ravaging the vast realm of the Elysian Realm.

Blinding beams of energy, dense as a bullet storm, cascaded toward the lone figure standing at the center of the world.

The roar of destruction filled the air, yet Nagami...

620 – When in Doubt, Drag Out the Ancestors

The day before the final selection, the voting page for the Japan Mystery Writers Association Awards officially closed.

And the total number of votes? Over five hundred thousand.

An absolutely staggering, record-shattering figure.

The Japan Mystery Writers Association Award was the oldest and most prestigious—award in the nation’s mystery fiction world.

Its reputation and influence went far beyond what most people could imagine.

To put it simply: if ...

619 – Eriri: “Maybe I Really Am a Genius”

“Eriri, can you answer me honestly?”                                  

“Hm? What’s up?”

“Is studying tiring? Is being a student stressful?”

“Not really. Aside from having to wake up early—which is kind of torture—everything else is fine. I don’t really feel any pressure.”

“Are...

Chapter 241 — Nobody is Winning Here [2 Chapter in One]

In the end, everyone caved and decided to join Ryou in her ridiculous challenge.

Even though the waitress had warned them about the sheer amount of food, Nijika and Kita still burning from Ryou’s teasing—were too stubborn to back down.

If Ryou could do it, then so could they.

Or at least… that’s what they told themselves.

After a short wait, the sound of a food trolley creaked toward their table.

The smell hit them before the sight did—a rich b...

Chapter 240 — A Deja-vu

After finishing their impromptu photo session, the group finally settled down around one of the wooden tables.

The warm hum of the old heater filled the air as they flipped through the laminated menus, waiting for the aunty to return from the kitchen.

The menu was packed with choices — grilled fish, pork belly, gōyā champurū (bitter melon stir-fry), Okinawan-style tofu dishes, hearty stews, and even something called inanmuri-uchi.

Most of the f...

Chapter 407 — Power Rivaling the Herrscher of Finality

“Simply put,” Nagami said patiently, “I’ll modify each of your memory cores into special conduits. These will draw out a special energy slumbering within them, allowing a kind of fusion that generates new strength.”

“...Special energy, huh?” Mei-bi-us murmured, lightly tapping her chin with a slender finger.

Her delicate, almost innocent face made her look harmless—but the weight in those serpent-green eyes deepened.

“Then tell me, Herrscher-kun,” she con...

Chapter 406 — The Perfect Vessel of the End

A cruel battlefield. A suffocating despair. A world consumed by collapse.

When these three converge — a Herrscher is born.

Or perhaps, it’s better to say this: from an instant of hopelessness and hatred, the Will of the Honkai manifests — awakening a new personality within the chosen vessel, drawing from their original memories and emotions.

The essence of a Herrscher’s “personality” is nothing more than this: a newly formed consciousness overwhelmed by ...
