“Whatever they've run into, we must find a way to get in touch with them!” The manager urged anxiously.
At that moment, an attendant rushed in, visibly flustered.
“Manager! Chairman Shu of Shanghai Pokémon Technology Company is here to see you.”
The manager frowned slightly.
“Chairman Shu? What's he doing here?”
“Tell him I'm extremely busy right now and really don’t have the time! And please offer my sincere apologies!”
Normally, he woul...

Several minutes later—
Flight 573 was cruising smoothly through the sky.
“Xiao Cao, how are the stats looking?”
The captain glanced at his co-pilot, routinely checking flight parameters.
Planes, despite being the safest statistically, also had the lowest survival rates when something actually went wrong.
Hence, constant data checks were crucial.
“All clear, Captain.”
“As long as we don’t bump into a secret realm halfway, there’ll be no...

After they entered the villa, Ye Qing wasted no time getting to the point.
“Teacher Guo, have you thought about your future plans?”
She’d heard from Ye Bo that Teacher Guo disliked the hustle and bustle of big-city life. Even though his strength was undoubtedly impressive, Ye Qing couldn’t agree to let her daughter stay in this remote village indefinitely. After all, classes at Shanghai Pokémon University were set to begin in just a month’s time, and Su Qingxue would ne...

“All right, that’s it for now. I'll handle the prep work for stealing the Treasure, so you guys just head home and get some rest.”
After exiting the Palace, Rinto said goodbye to the Phantom Thieves as usual, and walked the Yoshizawa twins home.
They had been exploring for nearly three hours, and it was already dusk. Even heart-stealing Phantom Thieves who could change the world were still well-behaved high school students. Dinner time meant they had to hurry home, especiall...

Finding the final Desire Stone didn’t take long at all.
Rinto let his teammates handle most of the battles, guiding them as a mentor rather than directly intervening, and they continued at a brisk pace.
Only the room containing the last Desire Stone had powerful Shadows guarding it, clearly marking the darkest secret Kamoshida desperately wanted hidden.
But, naturally, it posed no obstacle to the newly formed Phantom Thieves.

After exchanging brief pleasantries, the host’s young female assistant enthusiastically continued her praise of Kamoshida:

“Not only that, I’ve heard that even though you’ve starred in numerous commercials after retirement, you’ve generously d...

“Actually, there's something else that bothers me,” Morgana spoke up as he summoned his Persona to heal everyone, confusion evident on his round cat face.
“Leader, you can use many different Personas, right? Considering your incredible ability, why don’t you have any healing-type Personas?”
That was indeed a good point, and Rinto paused thoughtfully.
He had shown the Phantom Thieves his unique ability to switch between multiple Personas. Aside from his original Per...

At long last, the highly anticipated infiltration had arrived!
For the first time ever, the complete Phantom Thieves lineup stood together outside Kamoshida’s Palace.
Taking in the impressive sight of his teammates, Rinto was overwhelmed with emotion.
Himself, Ann Takamaki, Ryuji Sakamoto, Morgana, plus the Yoshizawa sisters—the Phantom Thieves had already grown to six members!
Just a week ago, he'd been fighting alone, never daring to dream of such a luxurious mom...

It’s worth mentioning—Lao Xiong’s Lingzhou was already at max [Eidolon].
His gacha luck far surpassed Ah Xian’s, to the extent that viewers joked he'd win the lottery if he bought a ticket.
Two ten-pulls on the Beginner’s Banner netted him three copies of Lingzhou.
Then, another three came from Seele’s rate-up banner, plus the one from the main story reward. Just like that, max [Eidolon] achieved.

At this point, the players reached the end of available story content—because their Trailblaze Level wasn’t high enough.
The main quest required Trailblaze Level 14 to continue.

After all, this gave Lobotomy Corporation yet another Abnormality capable of producing energy. Once the new employees settled in, energy production would increase significantly again.

Looking at the sumptuous spread of meat and seafood before her, Ganyu’s expression turned slightly awkward.
The aroma of the dishes was tantalizing, stirring her appetite, but everything laid out was non-vegetarian—and she didn't eat meat.

Childe wandered through a hidden laboratory, idly tossing in his hand a Mora coin he'd acquired at great expense.

Compared to last year, the office had become noticeably more luxurious and spacious. After Vice President Kasadō Kōgorō graduated and joined the Sixth Division, he'd left Nobu a farewell gift—filling the office with all sorts of new furnishings.
