Rias thrust her hand forward, unleashing a powerful blast of crimson energy imbued with destructive force toward one of the mass-produced Jormungandr, eliciting a howl of agony from the serpent. She immediately turned toward Jeanne and shouted urgently.
“Watch out, Jeanne-san! That’s—”
“Fenrir, the God-Slaying Wolf, ranked among the world’s top ten, the most ferocious monster with fangs guaranteed to kill gods once bitten—I’ve heard it all far too many times!”

The current generation of Maou were indeed experts at technological innovation, inventing entirely new things. The "Evil Pieces," capable of reincarnating other races as devils, was one example. Recently, with Azazel’s assistance, the Angels had similarly created the "Brave Saints," modeled after Evil Pieces, capable of transforming humans into angels—taking the form of playing cards.
Moreover, the current Maou had even established a special dimension within the dimensional gap to h...

A streak of blazing fire cut across the dark purple sky.
After learning of Rias’s current location, Jeanne Alter immediately set off at full speed, carrying Koneko safely in her arms.
Koneko, nestled quietly against Jeanne’s chest, suddenly opened her eyes.
"What, not pretending to sleep anymore?" Jeanne asked lightly, eyes fixed straight ahead, seemingly unsurprised by Koneko’s sudden awakening.
"...Jeanne-senpai, you knew I was awake?” Koneko’s golden eyes ...

Home…?
The word echoed softly in Anna’s heart, and the moment it surfaced, her chest tightened with a trembling ache.
Home.
How long had it been since she’d even dared to think of those two syllables?
Her home had ceased to exist countless years ago.
Her father, the first to fall on the frontlines. Her mother, standing guard in the royal palace until the very end.
She still remembered it all vividly—their deaths, unfolding right be...

Hoshigaki Sora’s consciousness gradually stirred. The scenes from just before he lost consciousness still circled in his mind, helping him piece together what had happened.
The planet had been reforged. Civilization had taken root anew, and there were no more hidden threats looming over it.
Zulo was no longer connected to this world. The planet had truly been granted a second life.
He had kept his promise to those children—or rather, the conditions to fulfill that promis...

“Hey… is it just me, or is the Day of Destruction behind us getting smaller?”
The sudden report echoed through the comms aboard a Galaxy Rangers vessel.
One of the Rangers ferrying trade goods had noticed something strange in their wake.

He broadcast his observation to the rest of the fleet.

Superheroes—an eternal, ever-relevant theme.
They are the just champions of fantastical stories, wielding powers beyond ordinary people, performing extraordinary acts of courage.
Protecting civilians. Fighting evil. Shielding the innocent from ghostly threats.
Upholding justice. Stepping forward in times of danger. Driven by responsibility—never asking for reward.
And now, right before Hoshigaki Sora’s eyes, the image of a hero was etched into the cover of the bo...

Silver-white radiance interlaced with the violet light of the ancient dragon, the fusion of two forces—one born of antiquity, the other of the future—wove together in a dazzling crescendo.
And in the very next instant, Zulo was cleaved cleanly in half at the waist.
The point of impact shimmered with the glow of the Hunt—its power seeping into Zulo’s very essence, corroding him with wild abandon.
Zulo, archenemy of the Galaxy Rangers, carried with him a seething resen...

Allen,
How have you been lately?
It’s hard to believe, but it’s already been nearly a year and a half since we parted ways. I wonder if you’ve gotten any taller? You always used to say you were 160cm—what a lie. Rudeus mentioned in his letter that you’ve grown nearly a head taller since last year.
He also told me you once claimed your facial features have become more delicate, and your hair is now long enough to tie...

Not long after the three of them went upstairs, a wave of overlapping sounds washed down like a river onto Allen, who sat quietly leaning against the stairs:
Zenith’s voice, hoarse with fury.
The dull thuds of knees hitting the floor.
Apologies choked with tears.
Zenith storming out, slamming doors.
The rustling of fabric in a scuffle.
Fists landing on Paul’s body.
Rudeus pleading with his mother.
The crest of an emotional outburst, then its calm.

Allen turned and stepped back into his room. The sound of Zenith’s slightly labored pregnancy breathing filled his ears. Leaning against the door, he let out a faint, mocking smile.
Paul’s great when it comes to taking care of his family, but when it comes to controlling his lower half… still a disaster. And Lilia… not a clean exit, huh.
He shook his head.

Kitahara Takeru was still grinning like an idiot, proudly holding up the giant fish when he saw Shirogane Kei giving him a look like he was literal scum. He was completely baffled.
Kei’s tone was cold. “Nothing.”

She had actually felt sorry for him just a moment ago.

Just a show to trick gullible, overly sympathetic girls.

“Senpai? What are you doing here?”
The moment she reached the bottom of the stairs and looked up, she saw Kitahara Takeru leaning casually against a sleek black-and-white motorbike.
Its design was bold, its curves clean—power and speed embodied in metal.

Shirogane Kei didn’t know where he was going—she just followed him instinctively.

Just one look at Kitahara Takeru’s sword grip and Tōchi Taku knew—he didn’t know a thing.
Kendō’s standard opening stances fell into five basic forms: jōdan (high), chūdan (middle), gedan (low), hassō (eight-phase), and waki (side). Together, they were known as the gogumi—the five forms.
Each was drawn from the philosophy of the five elements: jōdan was fire, representing confident aggression.

The celebration in Belobog lasted well into the night. People from both the Overworld and Underworld came together, finally able to let loose after the two enormous threats looming over them had vanished.
The IPC had already withdrawn just before the Swarm Mother descended upon Belobog, and hadn’t returned even after the crisis had passed, likely due to a change in corporate priorities.
Unsurprisingly, Bronya became the new Supreme Guardian.

Yevenko hadn’t expected Tom’s actions to cause such a massive spectacle.

Meanwhile, Tom stealthily slipped up to the very top of the planet.

Seeing this, Yevenko set aside concern for his injuries and turned his attention toward the barren planet. There, another Swarm Mother emerged from the shattered ground, half its enormous body exposed, residual flames still glowing in its vicious maw.
But this Swarm Mother didn't attempt to fly. It had only one wing remaining; the other side bore gruesome wounds, and its body was significantly thinner than the one he was fighting now.
A second Swarm Mother.
