Uma Musume Pretty Derby: To The Basement [69]

“Mizuno-dono, won’t you at least consider it?”

Absolutely not! Take that ridiculous idea away already!

Mizuno Sora immediately rejected Fortune’s audacious suggestion without hesitation.

After all, Kiryuin Aoi had clearly been joking; the wager had no real significance. Even if Sora accepted it, Kiryuin certainly wouldn’t actually become his girlfriend.

And even if she did, what good would doubling the hope energy collected from Urara’s debut race ...

Uma Musume Pretty Derby: To The Basement [68]

“Joint first place?!”

Everyone at the scene was astonished by the outcome.

In the original world, horse races never had two champions. Multiple champions weren’t just about comparing abilities between horses—it also affected their lifelong reputations.

But more importantly, if a race had two winners, the organizers couldn’t make heaps of cash from gamblers—a truly unacceptable scenario!

Fortunately, this was a world filled with love.

The main goal of ...

Uma Musume Pretty Derby: To The Basement [67]

Prompted by the announcer’s shout, the crowd’s attention shifted entirely toward the petite pink-haired Uma Musume.

Urara had escaped the tightly packed group, surging unhindered along the outer track, sprinting furiously forward.

“!”

The unfamiliar Uma Musume who had exchanged greetings with Urara before the race stared wide-eyed as Urara blew past her.

She’d originally planned to protect the little pink-haired girl from getting bumped by other racers—but ...

After presenting themselves briefly on stage, all participants returned to their respective waiting rooms to prepare for the upcoming race.

An hour later, the Uma Musume contestants stepped onto the racetrack, guided by the staff to their starting gates.

Urara was in gate six, with Happy Meek right beside her in gate seven.

“Meek-chan Good luck!” Urara cheerfully called out to Happy Meek in the gate to her right.

“Mm,” Happy Meek nodded slightly in acknowledgme...

Pokémon: My Titles Know No Limits! [545]

Chi-Yu froze when it heard August’s command, astonished that a mere human dared to order an attack on it.

Even more unbelievable was that Lugia actually obeyed!

Baby Lugia inhaled briefly.

In the next instant, a powerful blast of water erupted from its mouth. Although Baby Lugia wasn't the true lord of ocean currents, using Hydro Pump was still effortless.

As the water shot toward Chi-Yu, the fiery fish didn’t sit idly. Twisting its body, fierce flames erupted arou...

Watching Xerneas, Mew, and August interacting cheerfully, Ting-Lu couldn’t help feeling utterly ignored.

I’m a Disaster Pokémon, you know? A legendary Treasure of Ruin! Shouldn’t you all be taking me a bit more seriously?!

Seeing Ting-Lu questioning its entire deer-life, Chien-Pao nodded in solidarity.

Indeed, the Ruin Pokémon had zero prestige around August.

Quietly, Chien-Pao urged Ting-Lu to surrender peacefully.

Sure, August seems friendl...

Holding Tatsugiri as her remote control, Mew gleefully directed Dondozo’s movements, thoroughly enjoying herself.

But while enthusiastically waving Tatsugiri around, she suddenly noticed Dondozo had stopped moving. Surprised, she glanced down at the Pokémon in her paws.

Tatsugiri’s head and tail drooped limply; it had somehow stopped moving entirely.

Mew panicked a little.

She quickly flew back to August’s side, anxiously tugging at his sleeve, silently begging ...

Feeling Mewtwo’s gaze upon it, Chien-Pao’s relaxed posture instantly vanished. It rose cautiously, eyes locked warily onto Mewtwo.

Chien-Pao could sense that this unfamiliar Pokémon was entirely different from Mew—it was powerful!

After being thoroughly educated by Reshiram earlier, Chien-Pao now exercised extreme caution. Its body tensed into a defensive stance, icy energy pooling around its form, ready to counterattack the moment Mewtwo struck!

Yet, Mewtwo’s next ...

Seeing August’s gesture, Reshiram beat its wings sharply and lunged forward, landing at the entrance of the cave.

“Grruu...”

Hearing the commotion outside, Chien-Pao within the Shrine of Fractured Ice let out a threatening growl.

Immediately, an icy wind surged from the cave mouth, whipping snow toward Reshiram.

Had the opponent been Cynthia’s Garchomp from before, Chien-Pao’s [Blizzard] would naturally be d...

"Dark—"

"I found someone who meets all your requirements."

Having long since gotten used to Regigigas’s [Slow Start], Darkrai promptly interrupted before the giant could finish its sluggish greeting.

Its voice carried undeniable pride as it even straightened slightly, puffing out its chest in confidence.

Though Regigigas's conditions were absurdly stringent, Darkrai had not only fulfilled but vastly exceeded them. Elias alone already surpassed expe...

Elias was awakened early the next morning by a burst of commotion.

He opened his eyes drowsily, noticing that aside from Mew, all his other Pokémon had also been disturbed from their sleep. Gardevoir rubbed her sleepy eyes, a visibly irritated expression on her face.

What’s going on…?

Elias sat up slowly, realizing the source of the noise was coming from outside.

Given the ancient wooden construction of Jubilife’s buildings, the soundproofing was natura...

An eerie silence filled the air following Darkrai’s boastful remark.

After a prolonged moment, even Darkrai itself began to sense the awkwardness in the atmosphere.

Staring at Elias and the Pokémon surrounding him—none of whom had reacted in the slightest—Darkrai couldn’t help but furrow its brow.

This human…does he seriously believe he can defeat me?

A sneer formed inwardly, and Darkrai almost laughed aloud at the absurdity of the idea.

Seeing the visibly distraught Mew, Gardevoir couldn’t suppress a quiet laugh behind her hand.

Serves you right, foolish kitten. If only you'd thought to bring a night-capable camera. Now the battery’s run out, hasn't it?

Mew probably hadn't even realized yet that, in this ancient Hisui region, finding somewhere to recharge her beloved camera would be impossible.

After an unhurried trek, Elias and his Pokémon finally stopped in a dense wooded area.

"Does anyone else have objections?"

With Akari conceding, Cyllene stood up, hands braced on the table, and addressed the other members present. Even she couldn't help the faint smile tugging at her lips.

She'd never felt quite so assertive as she did today.

Predictably, the other high-ranking members quickly waved their hands dismissively.

"No objections, none at all!"

"Akari's still young; she should stay safely in the village. Let's not worry about that Pokémo...

Hu Tao Is Monetizing My Existence. [280]

Strange?

Hearing this, Bloop instantly widened its eyes, desperately trying to appear no different from an ordinary slime.

Jiang Bai tilted his head. "What's strange?"

"Normally, only large Hydro Slimes can blow bubbles. How can your slime blow bubbles while still so small?" Aether asked curiously.

He’d fought plenty of slimes recently, and small slimes typically only knew how to harmlessly bump into things.

Paimon struggled free of Bloop’s bubble, p...

“All right, all right, I’ll stop teasing you now. But preparing three different fragrance balms isn’t an easy job—you’ll all have to lend me a hand.”

Ying’er led them to her workshop in the courtyard behind the shop.

Seeing the scale of preparations, Jiang Bai realized his plans were doomed.

Before these three fragrance balms were done, he definitely wouldn't get a chance to talk privately with Ying’er.

Still, if he learned the process thoroughly, perha...

Under Zhongli’s intense gaze, Jiang Bai guiltily turned away, pretending to examine his surroundings.

Zhongli ignored him, continuing his detailed lecture on selecting quality Noctilucous Jade.

“…High-quality Noctilucous Jade is particularly receptive to Pyro elemental energy. Under intense heat, the bluer its glow, the higher its quality.”

Aether and Paimon felt they’d gained new insights.

Eventually, under Zhongli’s precise guidance and careful testing, A...

Returning to Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Aether and Jiang Bai officially began preparing the Sending-off Ceremony under Zhongli's direction.

As for Paimon—she was more of a mascot tagging along.

Jiang Bai and Aether flanked Zhongli on either side, looking like two solemn guardians escorting him through the streets.

As they walked, Zhongli casually chatted with Aether. "I've heard of your exploits in Mondstadt. Since arriving in Liyue, you've been constantly occupied. When th...

As Jiang Bai led Aether and Paimon out of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Aether couldn't help but voice his confusion.

"Didn't you say earlier that Mr. Zhongli was probably the culprit? So why are you letting him handle the Geo Archon's Sending-off Ceremony?"

"Yeah, exactly!" Paimon chimed in, equally curious.

"That was just speculation on my part," Jiang Bai replied, spreading his hands helplessly. "I just thought he seemed suspicious—but I don’t have any real evidence."

I Don’t Want to Be a Heroic Spirit [705]

After learning of the existence of other worlds, Rizevim had become obsessed with invading them.

But there was one enormous obstacle blocking his path: Great Red, the True Red Dragon God Emperor, who dwelled within the Dimensional Gap.

Great Red was a being even the Infinite Dragon God Ophis couldn’t defeat. Naturally, Rizevim understood his own chances were nonexistent. Even if every powerhouse in this world, except Jeanne Alter and Ophis, joined him, he’d still lose miserabl...

It had been purposely built this way due to its owner’s whimsical declaration: “We’re cute and charming villains, right? So naturally, our hideout must have this kind of gloomy atmosphere!

It was as though darkness itself had been given physical form, its entire body wreathed in pitch-black flames.

Issei and the others trembled uncontrollably.

Any intelligent creature instinctively fears darkness and the unknown. Darkness strips away one's primary sense of sight, while the unknown nullifies the wisdom and experiences one relies on to survive.

And humans were beings particularly adept at imagining the worst.

Dragons appeared, each colossal as a small mountain, their imposing forms emanating a terrifying presence. Scarlet eyes glittered with violent menace, pitch-black scales shone with a metallic sheen, and fangs and claws glinted with a deadly chill. Their oppressive aura blotted out the sky like storm clouds.

As these Evil Dragons manifested, the previously spacious hall suddenly became stiflingly cramped.

Running another training race right away was obviously impossible.

Although the intensity of a training race was somewhat lower than a formal one due to differences in venue, track, and instructions, it still had its toll.

What came next, of course, was rest and recovery.

Not only Kitasan Black but the other Uma Musume who had come to help also needed to go through this recovery phase.

After crossing the finish line, Kitasan Black habitually slowed into a jog. Only when her breathing returned to normal did she glance back with a faint pang of regret.

Gold Ship-senpai won after all, huh...? Thinking I could beat the seniors was really too naive.

The moment they entered the final turn, Vodka gradually lowered her stance.

Unlike Daiwa Scarlet or Kitasan Black's aggressive front-running rhythm, her strides were steady and forceful, exuding a subtle sense of calculated control—as if she had anticipated Scarlet’s acceleration from the very beginning.

Which was, indeed, exactly the case.

Having raced against her countless times, Vodka knew Scarlet better than anyone.

Her objective at this moment was clear: close...

Daiwa Scarlet's sudden acceleration sent a jolt through Kitasan Black's heart.

She realized instantly that while her senior had praised her effort, she had also started taking the race far more seriously.

Or perhaps Scarlet had never treated this as merely a training race at all, approaching it from the very start with full preparation.

Right now, the surge of speed Scarlet had shown was exactly the kind of acceleration a true front-runner would use to fend off pursuers.
