Girls? I'm Going to Be a Pokémon Master! [55]

“Satoshi…”

Kagura Hikari stared straight at him.

So different from her cold exterior, her gaze burned hot, unblinking, fixed only on him.

Not on the Pokémon facing off in the arena—only on Satoshi.

“It’s been five years and 214 days since we last spoke… and you really haven’t changed at all.”

She murmured to herself, satisfied, her eyes dropping to the Beartic-shaped wallet at her waist, then back to the boy not far away. A small, nearly imperc...

“Lost… Thank you, Little Guren, you did really well.”

Karen walked up to Armarouge, crouched down, and sprayed a [Potion] onto its body.

[Nuzzle] really is a god-tier move~~ guaranteed paralysis, the gold value is way too high.

In the games it even breaks [Focus Sash], and it’s so much better than [Thunder Wave]’s shaky 90 accuracy.

How can a move be this cool!

[Armarouge, Fire + Psychic type. A “Final Dance” Pokémon. Its signature move is the Fire-type melee special attack Armor Cannon. Among the Pokémon who “made mistakes,” it’s not as bad as its good bro Ceruledge.]

So… what do you mean by a Pokémon who ‘made mistakes’?

Satoshi hadn’t expected to suddenly be hugged—especially not by a girl who looked at him with the familiarity of an old acquaintance.

Honestly, compared to things like this, what he wanted far more was to battle. With something like Armarouge standing right in front of him, how could he possibly hold back that urge?

I’m the man who’s going to become a Pokémon Master. Women and stuff just get in the way!

…Why would you drive away the enemy? Shouldn’t you be facing them head-on?

Feeling the fighting spirit radiating from all around, Satoshi’s blood instantly boiled over — he wanted a Pokémon battle!

With his name growing bigger and bigger now, even if he didn’t go looking, countless people wanted to challenge him.

Alicetaria recognized Van Gogh… her tone, her expression, everything conveyed that fact.

Van Gogh was surprised at this, tilting her head.

“You… know Van Gogh? You know this Van Gogh?”

“I heard about you from the Military Uniform Princess.”

Though she did not completely drop her guard, Alicetaria did relax a little—after all, she was truly exhausted now. “She said you were trustworthy.”

The night was like ink.

Night was meant to be quiet. People, tired after a day’s labor, should have long since sunk into dreams, saving their strength for tomorrow’s work and life. Even those night owls whose energy only awoke after dusk would, unconsciously swayed by the silence of the night, try their best not to disturb others’ rest.

But tonight—tonight was noisy, tonight was chaotic.

As long as I begin to paint, I sink into it.
Paint like rivers, paint like starry skies, paint like fresh blood—
all of it, splattered across the canvas.

With the brush, I sketch out the world in my mind, call it forth again, let the imagined world corrode the real one.
As if someone were watching this painting.
As if someone were holding my hand, guiding the brush, spilling the ink.
My hand moved on its own, moving faster than thought, moving ahead of the brain.

The Sunshine City incident succeeded in drawing the government’s attention.

In fact, after the two incidents at Yoyogi Park and Ōtaguro Park, the government had already begun to take notice, putting manpower and resources into the matter. But the Sunshine City case was far worse than anything before. The authorities deemed the situation urgent, and took emergency measures.

Those involved—Selesia, Meteora, the purple-haired man, along with Mizushino Sōta and Matsubara Takashi...

It was a small room, but full of an atmosphere of art.

The room wasn’t dirty, but it was somewhat messy.

Oil paintings, watercolors, ink wash paintings, sketches… each piece carried its own special resonance. Even someone who didn’t understand painting would still, unconsciously, let out an exclamation of awe, calling them works of art.

And yet, no one tended to them. They were simply tossed on the floor, the bed, the desk—left scattered like waste paper instead of b...

Please, Let Me Ascend to the Throne of Heroes! [40]

A thunderous roar echoed across the dried and lifeless earth. The raging pallid storm slammed again and again against the barrier that had bloomed in an instant, shrieking with a piercing cry.

The refugees who had just been fleeing stared in speechless shock.

Who… was that…

Who could, with mere flesh and blood, stand against a calamity!?

Stunned, stupefied—until another voice reached their ears. Low, hoarse, ancient:

Of course, although Rovi had deliberately wanted to irritate Gilgamesh for his own twisted amusement, what he had said wasn’t a lie.

At first he truly hadn’t known that the “beast” falling from the heavens had begun showing abnormal signs. It was only when he was returning from his envoy mission, passing through the eastern plains of Uruk, that he sensed something amiss.

And once he sensed it, Rovi naturally couldn’t ignore it—

But truth be told, Siduri couldn’t help but feel a little moved.

If you counted carefully, Gilgamesh and Rovi actually hadn’t known each other for very long.

And yet, it felt as though they had gone through so much together.

No—not just felt. They had experienced much.

And many of those things were ones the King himself had never experienced before.

So of course, he was pleased.

Of course he would acknowledge them as his friends, val...

One had to admit—Ziusudra’s method was, in truth, correct.

He could not know the reason Rovi refused his “protection,” but neither did he stubbornly press the issue. After all, this immortal who had endured across ages understood well—if he forced himself upon someone, he would only stir resentment.

That would be counterproductive.

Yet to both honor Rovi’s will and still guard him seemed nearly impossible.

But Ziusudra had found the way most natura...

Having successfully “sent off” Ziusudra, Rovi lingered in place for a moment, not rushing to immediately follow after.

He wanted Ziusudra to go first.

To keep distance between them.

To reduce the chance of influence—or rather, trouble. Of course, Rovi also had no plans to return to his residence, lest Enkidu “cling” to him and cause more wounds of the heart.

So instead, he found a small inn in the city and lodged there for the night.

Blue-Eyes White Dragon: Adopted by the King of Knights [101]

Nighttime.

The Enlightened Dragon City, which ought to have been swallowed by the shroud of night, was instead ablaze with light tonight.

Countless bonfires rose up within the city, burning in every corner. Orange-red firelight danced across the white buildings, a blazing performance under the curtain of night—tonight’s true festival had begun.

Seele: “We can’t blow it up.”

March 7th: “See, see? A pretty girl still cares about you—”

Seele: “These are mining assets. We can’t just destroy them at will. Better to fix them and push them aside.”

Fine, forget she said anything.

Seele crouched down, examining the jumbled mining convoy tools, then gave a cold snort.

Seele stepped forward, eyes falling on the corpse’s ruined head.

To be exact—on the hole blown open through the skull.

“…Dead for real.”

Lingzhou looked a little speechless at the meaningless observation from her lips.

“A mortal body takes a bullet to the head and dies. Natural. Now the ones blocking the road are gone. We’re in a hurry. Keep moving.”

His voice carried no ripple of emotion. Yet in Seele’s eyes, that very flatness stirred waves. View Post

“Are Allen and the others still in class?”

“Yes, Madam.”

Hilda sipped her tea, eyelids lowered.

Her face was reflected in the surface of the tea.

Ripples spread.

She smiled faintly.

Then raised her eyes, looking at Sylphy, seated across from her.

Her expression held a trace of helplessness, a posture almost of “complaint.”

But...

Her features only softened further.

Allen shifted his gaze away and bent his knees to sit.

Head lowered.

In his view, the table before him had the plate Sylphy already prepared for him—everything was something he liked to eat.

He’d once felt a little embarrassed about it, feeling like a “young master” being served. He’d carefully told Sylphy she didn’t have to, that he could get it himself.

But she’d refused with a smile.

The King of Tokyo Freeloaders [90]

At lunch break, Anri Hitomi once again brought her luxury bento and, in full view of everyone, came over to ask Kuroba Akira to eat with her.

This time, Akira couldn’t even be bothered to put on any act or make explanations.

At this point it was already mud on the crotch of your pants—even if it’s nothing, it’s something. Might as well just give up resisting entirely.

If the Class Rep didn’t care about being misunderstood, then Akira definitely cared even ...

Waking up in one go—refreshed!

He didn’t know how long he’d slept, but that nap was good, almost on par with Tashiro-san’s breast pillow.
…Ah! Right—the key was the pillow!

Suddenly remembering he’d fallen asleep on the class rep’s lap, Kuroba Akira shot upright like a spring, turning to check on the one who had provided the lap pillow.

“Class Rep, are your legs okay? They must be numb by now, right? Come on, stand up and stretch them!”

Kuroba Akira couldn’t shake the strange feeling of being a husband suspected of cheating… even though there was absolutely nothing for him to feel guilty about.

Maybe it was just that the class rep’s expression was so serious right now—it pressed down on him like an invisible weight. And so, the lie slipped out before he even thought about it.

“Oh, right—I remember now. Yesterday I did use a new body wash. Maybe I used the wrong one by mistake.”

After Lo-sensei left, Anri Hitomi stepped into the curtained-off space and sat down on the companion’s chair by the bed, smiling wryly.

Who would’ve thought there was someone in this world who could actually leave the class rep speechless? Lo-sensei’s level was just too high—so high that even Kuroba Akira, who prided himself on having skin as thick as a city wall, had to admit he couldn’t compare.

After a few days of treatment in Fourth Division, the Twelfth Division Captain, Kurotsuchi Mayuri, came in person.

He had received the news early, and brought with him a drug that could accelerate the growth of human organs.

Everything went smoothly. After undergoing “treatment” jointly administered by Mayuri and Fourth Division, Ukitake’s lungs were finally restored to health. All that remained was a period of recuperation and observation.

In the end, battles between Shinigami are battles of reiatsu. No matter how powerful the rule or ability, it still needs to be backed by spiritual pressure.

The thing before him now might be the Soul King’s right hand, but it had lived inside Ukitake for so long that it had become a symbiotic existence with him. Earlier, Nobu had made Ukitake disperse most of his reiatsu precisely to weaken the right hand’s power.

Without that, there was no way Nobu could have so easily used h...
