The Fox Hole 86

– Haru –

The sound of bone snapping echoed across the marble plaza with a sickening crack, and I winced—again. Tanya was kicking some ass…

She was a blur of black and yellow, darting across the wide stone steps in rapid, terrifying bursts. Her small fists cracked into ribs, slammed into jaws, and sent grown men flying like sacks of flour. One unlucky bastard hit the wall with enough force to crack the stone, then slid down in a crumpled heap, groaning in a...

A Systematic Tale: The Hero 9

Chapter 9:

– Silas –

So… there I was. Standing in the middle of the Dallon family living room, trying not to sweat bullets while Victoria laughed like she was watching the best comedy of her life, Amy looked like she wanted to melt into the floor, and Carol was scowling at me with the kind of intensity that made even Endbringers look chill by comparison.

All of this, of course, because I panicked and—like a complete dumbass—blurted...

The Blood Queen 46

Chapter 46:

– Valerie –

I stormed through the front doors of Hellsing Manor. Narcissa was right behind me. Sairaorg and his queen Kuisha followed close behind.

The moment I crossed the threshold, I gasped. My heart skipped a beat at the sight in front of me. The grand entrance hall was a fucking battlefield.

Dozens of bodies littered the floor—grotesque, rotting ghouls in modern combat gear, most of them riddled with bullet holes...

The Fox Hole 85

Chapter 85:

– Yasaka –

Yasaka stood in the snowy courtyard of Winterfell. The cold didn't bother her of course. It made the place have its own quiet charm.

She stood beside Catelyn Stark, the matron of House Stark, and the two of them had been speaking for the last twenty minutes about everything from the weather to the strange cultural gaps between Kyoto and the North.

“I’m truly happy you wanted to visit us in our home again,...

Chapter 334:

– Layla –

Gohan led me across the Capsule Corp compound, and I could feel my excitement building with every step. I hadn’t seen the rest of the team yet, but I could sense them nearby—Powerful energy signatures all clustered together! I was so ready!

We turned a corner and stepped into the large training courtyard out back. My eyes immediately scanned the group waiting there.

Android 18 was the first one I spotted�...

Chapter 8:

– Silas –

The principal sat behind her oversized desk, stacks of paperwork piled messily around her. She gestured vaguely at the chair across from her. "Mr. Thorn, please have a seat."

As I lowered myself carefully into the uncomfortable plastic chair, I studied her expression, waiting for the hammer to drop. But to my complete surprise, she didn’t look angry or disappointed. If anything, she seemed almost pleased, smiling i...

The Fox Hole 84

Chapter 84:

– Haru –

I gazed down into the enormous crater I'd carved right into the heart of Tokyo. My foxfire had erased the entire Umbrella facility, along with several city blocks above it, leaving behind nothing but glowing embers, molten rubble, and scorched earth.

Did it make me feel a little better about nearly being vaporized by an antimatter bomb? Yeah, kinda. Explosions always cheer people up—at least they usually did for me...

Thunder and Black Wings 22

Chapter 22:

– Blake –

I pumped my four black wings steadily, gliding over the massive canopy of the Forest of Death. The trees beneath me were absolutely enormous, their thick branches and dark green leaves woven together into an impenetrable blanket of darkness. Even in the bright afternoon sun, only faint trickles of light managed to slip through.

I squinted downward, frustration building inside me. Anko had tasked me with secretly wat...

The Blood Queen 45

Chapter 45:

– Valerie –

I bit back a curse as a thick, barbed stinger slammed into my stomach, punching straight through my skin—and probably my intestines, considering how it felt. Hot pain flared, but somehow it didn’t hurt as badly as I expected.

Maybe I was finally building up some pain tolerance. About damn time.

In front of me stood another one of that asshole devil's monstrous chimeras—this one a twisted blend of gori...

I don't even know what happened to the original, because I didn't get an alert from Patreon that it was flagged. It just mysteriously vanished on its own...

Chapter 5:

A sudden flash of bright white light burst through Amy's vision, and for a moment, her senses were completely scrambled. She swayed dizzily, blinking rapidly until the world came back into focus around her.

When the disorientation finally faded, she looked ar...

– Haru –

The elevator was surprisingly smooth, especially considering it belonged to a secret, evil, zombie-producing corporation. Alice stood beside me, tense and wary, her twin pistols clutched tightly in her hands. I kept my arms crossed casually, trying to ignore how cramped the space felt. My tails were puffed out uncomfortably behind me, brushing anno...

– Layla –

Tien took a deep breath and clenched his fists, glaring at me with clear annoyance. He obviously didn't appreciate me calling him weak—but hey, I was just being honest.

White ki erupted from his body, surrounding him like a blazing aura as the ground cracked under his feet. Veins bulged on his muscles as his aura grew brighter and hotter. I arched an eyebrow at his little display, trying not to smirk.

“Im...

Chapter 7:

– Amy –

Amy sat at the dinner table, trying desperately not to roll her eyes as Vicky and Carol continued fussing over her newly discovered ability to heal herself. Inwardly, she cursed Silas Thorn and his stupid, ridiculously handsome face. This was entirely his fault, after all. Him and his weird, overpowered, reality-breaking powers had somehow infected her—and now she was stuck having to explain herself to her worried mother a...

The Fox Hole 82

Chapter 82:

– Haru –

A bit later…

I leaned back against the bar counter, watching Ainz with amusement as he stood in front of several of his "NPCs." They stood at attention, their expressions serious and determined, clearly ready for whatever important mission their master was about to assign them!

"Today," Ainz announced dramatically, his deep voice echoing through the Fox Hole, "we embark on a crucial mission to preserve items ...

This is a repost. Patreon's bots took the last one down.

Chapter 21:

– Blake –

I stood awkwardly next to Anko in the classroom she had just dramatically broken into—by smashing straight through the window, of all things. Glass shards still littered the ground around our feet. Honestly, I had no idea why she'd insisted on such a flashy entrance.

I was quickly learning that Anko never did anything halfway.

“Listen up, you l...

The Blood Queen 44

Chapter 44:

– Valerie –

Narcissa and I strolled casually through the bustling streets of London. I kept my arms looped tightly around one of hers, holding it close enough that her soft skin pressed gently between my breasts. I grinned at the faint blush coloring Narcissa’s elegant cheeks—it was adorable how easily I could still fluster her, despite everything we’d done this morning in the bathtub.

It was impossible not to notice th...

The Fox Hole 81

Chapter 81:

– Ainz –

[Evolution complete.]

…Announced the mysterious voice of this world.

Ainz flexed his fingers slowly, carefully feeling out the changes within his newly evolved body. He no longer felt the strange sensation of shifting between two separate forms. Instead, his being felt entirely whole and integrated, comfortably his own.

His appearance hadn't drastically changed at first glance. He ...

Sorry if you got notified again. This chapter bugged out too.

Chapter 6:

– Silas –

Miss Militia surprised me. When she'd first pulled up on her motorcycle and hopped off gracefully, I'd prepared myself for an interrogation. Instead, she extended a friendly hand.

“Hello there,” she said warmly. “I’m Miss Militia, with the Protectorate. Welcome to the cape scene here in Brockton Bay—our wonderfully crazy city.”

I ch...

The Fox Hole 80

This chapter has some R-18

Chapter 80:

– Haru –

I watched two seventh-year students drag Ron Weasley and the “Aurors” out of the hall. It was a messy business. Ron yelled the entire way about Dumbledore coming to save him, which only got him a zap of lightning from Harry for his trouble. 

Honestly, I'd have done the same if I'd had to listen to that idiot rant any longer.

Meanwhile, a younger redhead...

The Fallen Gamer 332

I got some pretty good suggestions, but I didn’t really want to do more Worm or Tensura, so I picked something else… Somewhere Layla could get a challenge even with how OP she is. Also, I’ll try to get a Fox Hole chapter out today as well, i've just been pretty busy.

Chapter 332:

I sat at the very edge of Lady Death’s realm, staring out into the endless void of stars and galaxies. My bare feet dangled l...

Thunder and Black Wings 20

Chapter 20:

– Tsunade –

Tsunade slowly opened her eyes the next morning, stretching lazily beneath the warm sheets. Her entire body felt incredibly relaxed, pleasantly sore in exactly the right places. Memories of last night immediately flashed through her mind, bringing a satisfied grin to her lips. 

She glanced beside her and felt a soft warmth spread through her chest.

Blake was still sleeping peacefully beside her, his bre...

The Fox Hole 79

Chapter 79:

– Milim –

Milim felt her cheeks heating up as she walked through the streets of Kyoto, Haru’s hometown. Everywhere she turned, humans and yokai paused to stare curiously at her. Normally, Milim would have cheerfully waved or smiled back at them, but today she couldn’t muster the courage to even look them in the eyes. She ducked her head slightly, pouting shyly as she kept walking.

This was humiliating! She was the mighty ...

Thunder and Black Wings 19

This was originally gonna be 2 chapters, but I just decided to do a long one instead. This chapter has R-18 in the second half.

I was still trying to wipe the stubborn tears away as we all finally sat down at the dining table. My mom—god, even thinking those words still blew my mind—was sitting right next to me. It felt surreal. Amazing and surreal.

Across from us sat Tsunade, Shizune, and Konan. They'd given us some respectful space. They ...

The Fox Hole 78

Chapter 78:

– Haru –

Standing in the kitchens of Hogwarts, I had to admit it was probably the weirdest culinary environment I'd ever worked in…

Tiny little creatures called house-elves scurried frantically around me, their big eyes wide with anxiety as they hurried to carry out the orders I barked. I wasn't deliberately trying to intimidate them, but cooking was serious business! Especially tonight—there was no way I’d let anyone l...

I hopped off Selene's motorcycle as we arrived back in front of Hellsing Manor. My legs felt slightly shaky from the vibrations of the powerful engine and sitting pressed tightly against Selene’s firm body, but it had been a fun ride.

Selene gracefully swung off her bike and gave me a warm smile. Her normally cool expression had noticeably softened since we'd spent ...

Ugh… It stormed earlier and our basement flooded… Cleaning that up was not fun and took hours. Thankfully the forecast says it won't rain again for a week. Here’s hoping…

I opened my eyes slowly, feeling an immediate surge of power unlike anything I'd ever experienced before. It was an intense rush that left me breathless for a moment, my entire body tingling from head to toe.

I moved around behind the bar counter, plating up hot dishes and mixing strong drinks for Shepard and her crew. 

After hearing the mission they'd faced, I was glad to see everyone alive and in one piece. Shepard hadn't told me anything about what she'd planned and I'd only found out when her exhausted squad walked into the Fox Hole looking like they'd survived hell itself.

I slid Shepard her favorite drink...

Thunder and Black Wings 18

Chapter 18:

– Blake –

Konan and I touched down gently in front of the Senju compound, the rush of wind from our wings disturbing the dust around us. The moment my feet touched the ground, my four black wings vanished, fading silently back into my body. 

Next to me, Konan's elegant paper wings folded gracefully and disappeared into thin air.

"Well," I chuckled softly, stretching my sore leg, "that was definitely an experience."...

It didn't take long for me to realize exactly who the new dragon I'd sensed was. 

Erza stood confidently outside my restaurant, hands resting firmly on her hips, an incredibly proud smile plastered across her face. For a second, I couldn't help but stare. Seeing her like this caught me completely off guard.

I glanced quickly around the clearing, taking in the strange scene. It looked like a human military ...

Chapter 4:

– Amy –

After making their way through a wolf-infested forest and stumbling across some weird magic stones that apparently helped people train better as warriors, thieves, or mages—or something equally strange—Amy and her companions finally arrived in a small village called Riverwood.

Ralof had family in this village, which was lucky, because none of them had a single coin to their names. His sister turned out to be surpri...
