“Eating out?”
Hearing Ichin’s invitation, Utaha suddenly felt a bit hungry. Due to the release of her novel today, she hadn’t slept well since yesterday. After a simple breakfast in the morning, she rushed out and had only been sitting here drinking a cup of coffee.
After thinking it over, she agreed, “Sure, but where are we going? Have you decided?”
“Of course, I’ve already made up my mind. It’s something I haven’t eaten in a long time,” Ichin replie...

Time flew by, and it had already been two weeks since Ichin started school.
During these two weeks, aside from being at home, Ichin had spent all his free time at school focusing on developing his game. Finally, with his relentless effort, the game’s version was nearing completion.
On Saturday morning, Ichin, who had slept in a bit longer than usual, got up and busied himself at home for a while. He decided to head out for lunch.
Walking down the street, Ichin held his pho...

It was Wednesday, during school hours. The class had just started.
As the school bell rang, Shizuka Hiratsuka entered the classroom, holding the exam papers she had marked the previous day. However, her expression wasn’t exactly friendly.
"Bang!"
She slammed the stack of exam papers onto the desk, sweeping her gaze across the class with a cold sneer.
“It seems like spring break made you all go completely wild, huh? None of you seem to have remembered my warning ...

At the NYPD station, George walked in with Gwen, attracting friendly greetings from several officers along the way. George had brought Gwen to the station many times since she was young, so most people there knew her well, having watched her grow up.
As soon as they entered, George spotted a familiar figure in the lobby and called out, "Peter."
Peter, waiting for George, turned around and froze for a moment, noticing Gwen by George's side.
"Good morning, Uncle George," he gr...

At Alan's house.
Anna held a bowl of noodles, eating heartily.
While eating, she praised, “Alan, your cooking skills are the best I’ve ever encountered. Way better than those so-called Eastern chefs.”
As a well-traveled woman, Anna had tasted delicacies from around the world, yet she’d never eaten noodles as delicious as today’s. Earlier, with Gwen around, she managed to keep a little composure, but now that Gwen was gone, her inner foodie was on full display.

In Gwen’s house, she stepped out of the bathroom after her shower, only to find her mom looking at her with a somewhat displeased expression.
Gwen smiled and hugged her, “Mom, don’t worry. I was just participating in some school activities. You know my role at school.”
Her mom, looking at her with mild exasperation, replied, “Oh, I’m not worried about you. I’m just concerned about your dad coming back, noticing you’re out so late, and then getting all worked up. Ne...

At NASA’s space center, the old doctor sat in front of the massive screen, looking utterly defeated, his eyes dull and lifeless. He understood all too well the consequences and losses that would follow the spaceship’s crash.
Someone would have to take the blame, especially bearing the wrath of the public. And that person would undoubtedly be him.
“I just hope as few people die as possible,” he muttered, clinging to a small hope. Even though it wouldn’t lessen his guilt,...

“Sir, they’re prepared,” Hill responded. “We can launch at any time, and the fighter jets we borrowed from the military are also on standby. Once the missiles strike the spaceship, the larger fragments will be further broken down into smaller pieces.”
Hill, standing beside Nick Fury, worked on her tablet and added hesitantly, “But, sir…”

“It’s true, of course!”
Mona, a bit uneasy under such a direct gaze, turned her face gently to the side, looking away.
The rented apartment was small, with a living room previously used by a former tenant mage as a laboratory. There was a single bedroom and a small kitchen-bathroom combo room.
“That’s perfect! I’ve been wanting to know its location, so I can visit in the future. Please, come study my little paradise anytime!” Nolan clasped his hands together, p...

Nolan left the Knights of Favonius with slumped shoulders, looking a bit downcast. Mona, watching from behind, gave him a sympathetic look.
Captain Jean had given him a good scolding.
Actually, Nolan hadn’t bought just one piece of candy. After Klee helped Mona, he gave all the candy he had to her as a thank-you.
Of course, this made Klee ecstatic—she even jumped and cheered excitedly.
Then, Captain Jean caught her. Yelling in the library is against the rules, so K...

As Nagato and Konan arrived, the first thing they noticed was the familiar Gedo Statue, the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, leaving both of them visibly shocked.
How could the Gedo Statue, summoned by the Rinnegan, be here?
"Nagato, we meet again!" A voice called out—it was Uchiha Madara’s.
Only then did Nagato and Konan see an elderly figure sitting in a chair just beneath the statue.

To be honest, the crude interface in front of her was exactly as Ichin had described—nowhere near a demo.
Looking at the partially developed map that hadn't yet extended to the top, with only three starting points and several branching paths in the middle, Utaha asked, "So, I need to pick one of these three routes first?"
"That's right," Ichin confirmed. "You choose one of the three. Each route has different enemies and treasures. This icon represents an enemy, this one is for e...

Evening, Kasumigaoka Residence.
After finishing dinner and taking a bath, Kasumigaoka Utaha was sitting comfortably on the living room sofa, munching on half an apple while watching TV.
At that moment, Mrs. Kasumigaoka emerged from the kitchen, looking at her daughter. “Utaha, you’re not busy, right? Could you do me a favor and take this container to Ichin-kun next door? And also, bring these pastries along; I bought some extra this afternoon.”
In addition to the cont...

Who exactly is Kasumigaoka Utaha?
She’s the top-tier beauty who, just after entering the school last year, was immediately crowned the "School Belle" by all the boys. With her long black hair, tall and slender figure, and perfect curves, she’s the very image of the ideal girlfriend that most boys dream of.
On top of that, Utaha also excels academically, consistently ranking first in her grade, which made her position unshakeable.
However, this seemingly perfect Kasumigao...

Kasumigaoka Utaha didn’t expect Ichin to notice this issue on just the first day. Her lips twitched slightly, and she muttered softly, “It’s just that, back when I first started high school last year, I snapped at a few guys who tried to hit on me. Maybe... what I said was a bit harsh.”
Just maybe, a bit harsh.
Ichin hadn’t seen this side of her before—Kasumigaoka Utaha trying to save face and not outright admit it, which was quite unexpected. But thinking bac...

In his study, Shūichi looked at the newly crafted seal on the scroll with joy.
It was an upgraded version of the Bijuu Sealing Mark, now enhanced with Yang Release and the Hundred Healings Technique.
The reason for incorporating the Hundred Healings Technique was its complexity, which had proven challenging for Shizune, who had yet to master it.
Moreover, neither the Yin Seal nor the Hundred Healings Technique had been mastered by Asuka. While th...
