The Blood Queen 23

Chapter 23: 

– Integra –

Walter gave her a quick bow. “I shall go and mobilize our forces immediately, mum,” he said before running out of the room, the door swinging wide open behind him.

Integra clenched the phone in her hand so tightly that the screen cracked. Those arrogant wizards dared to kidnap a member of Hellsing so brazenly? She was going to unleash everything her forces had and crush them.

Her entire body tensed...

Chapter 33: A Party and a City of Capes…

– Glory Girl –

Victoria Dallon was doing her daily flyby over Brockton Bay, or at least the nicer areas her mother let her patrol. She kept an eye out for anything out of the ordinary when something caught her attention. Down near the boardwalk, a crowd had formed around what looked like a restaurant at the end of the pier.

“That’s weird,” she thought. She didn’t remember seeing that bui...

Chapter 17:

– Titus –

“How the hell did things spiral so quickly?” I rubbed my hand through my hair, trying to keep it together. Everything went to shit real fast...

Power Girl floated over, and hugged me. "I told you, Titus. There's something seriously wrong with some universes. It's like some cosmic force just wants them to spiral to destruction. Everything might’ve seemed fine—maybe Superman and Batman could’ve work...

Chapter 308:

– Layla –

A sudden burst of spiritual pressure swept over the entire town. I  turned my attention to the north of Karakura Town. High in the sky, I spotted Ichigo. He was already in the thick of a battle with another Quincy. His Bankai was already out, which honestly wasn’t surprising. I was pretty sure he used it in nearly every fight after unlocking it in the anime.

“Another one,�...

The Blood Queen 22

Chapter 22:

I woke up in a filthy, wet cell. The stench hit me first—rotting flesh and damp stone. My head was pounding, and my vision swam as I forced myself to sit up. The ground beneath me was cold and slimy, and my hands came away covered in something that I didn’t want to think too hard about. I shivered in disgust and looked around. It was dark, but that’s what natural night vision was good for. I pushed myself to my feet, grimacing as I realized ...

Chapter 32: The Pork Returns…

Not a single contestant passed. That was honestly pathetic. What made it worse was the fact that all of them had decided whole roasted pigs were the way to go. 

Every. Single. One. Of. Them! 

They saw me fail every person who brought one up, and yet they still thought it was a good idea. “Are all of you idiots?” I muttered under my breath, shaking my head as the last contestant walked away ...

Chapter 14: 

– Marcus –

I decided to fly back to Japan to visit Rias for a couple of hours. Surprisingly, no fighter jets tried to shoot me down this time as I flew over the ocean. I almost felt disappointed. 

When I landed just outside the gates of Kuoh Academy, it was lunchtime. Normally, people couldn’t just walk onto campus, not even alumni like me, but Kuoh was run by devils. Rules here were more like suggestions. No one...

The Blood Queen 21

Chapter 21:

I sat cross-legged on my bed, the Resurrection Grail resting in my lap. The image of my dead magic teacher, Rowena, stared up at me. I’d been recounting everything that had happened in the past week.

Rowena nodded as I finished. "So your focus broke, and you couldn't cast spells against those vampires," she summarized flatly.

I sighed, nodding. "Yeah. That about sums it up."

The Fallen Gamer 307

Chapter 307:

I followed Isane, Captain Unohana’s lieutenant, through the Squad 4 barracks. She was giving me a tour, and while I appreciated her effort, I would’ve much preferred if the Captain herself had been the one to show me around. Unfortunately, Unohana got pulled away to some important captains' meeting almost as soon as we arrived…

“This is one of our main treatment rooms,” Isane said, sliding open a paper-thin door with that gentle professional...

Chapter 31:  Pork Part 2

– Haru –

Naruko and I finally reached the end of the first exam stage. A small crowd had already gathered, made up of participants who’d arrived ahead of us. Most of them looked exhausted, sprawled on the ground or leaning against trees, trying to catch their breath.

Naruko glanced around, frowning. “Tanya’s not here yet.”

“She’ll be fine,” I said, leaning casually against a tr...

Hell yeah! 

Billy was stoked that the new guy actually wanted to hang out with him. Whenever he tried to spend time with the other guy heroes, they were always too busy to do anything except be heroes or go make kissy faces with their girlfriends in their time off. And he didn’t even bother trying to talk to any of the girl heroes, because they were girls, and girls were still a bit scary. 2024-12-10 23:52:32 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 30:  Pork Part 1

– Haru –

Tanya was slumped over the counter, letting out a huff like the weight of the world was on her shoulders. She looked troubled about something. 

“Is something wrong, Tanya-chan?” I asked her.

“It’s your sister’s birthday tomorrow, and as her loyal employee and ‘bestest friend,’ aren’t I supposed to get her a gift? What do I get for a Yokai princess who already has everythin...

Chapter 306:

– Layla – 

“BANKAI: ZANKA NO TACHI!”

The Head Captain unleashed his full power, and I wasn’t all that surprised he was going all out from the start.

I am freaking HER after all.

[How modest of you… but also true.]

I ignored the system’s usual snark and focused on Yamamoto. The air...

Chapter 20:

– Valerie –

Rose and I stood outside the main entrance of the Hellsing mansion. The night had finally calmed down, and there were no more bullets or vampires we had to watch out for. I leaned in close, and our lips met in a kiss that made the chaos of the day feel far away.

Rose melted into it for a moment, but then she pulled back slightly. “Do you think this is a good idea? Right here?”

I smirked. “What’s the ...

Chapter 19:

– Valerie –

Gulp after gulp of warm, sweet blood passed through my lips and down my throat. It felt wrong to be draining an innocent woman dry, but it was so delicious! There was no comparison between stale blood bags and fresh blood. The warm liquid filled my whole body with energy and power.

Her body went limp under my hands, the twitching stopping as I pulled back. I wiped my ...

Chapter 305:

– Layla –

“What was up with those brats attacking me out of nowhere?” I asked as Yoruichi, still in her cat form, led me into the shop. 

The place looked way bigger inside than it had any right to be from the outside. I could see an endless hallway with dozens of rooms.

Her tail swished back and forth as she answered. “Sorry about all that. Ichigo has been extremel...

The Titan 15

Chapter 15:

– Titus –

I slowly regained consciousness. For a moment, the unfamiliar ceiling above me confused me. Then, the memories of yesterday's events came flooding back. I was not in my usual bed back on Earth. I was currently aboard the floating Watchtower orbiting high above another world identical to my own.

As I rolled to my side, I was taken aback by the warm soft body pressed up against my bare chest. Lar...

Chapter 29: A change of plans

– Haru –

“...I was joking before when I said you were breaking red headed hearts. How could you Haru-kun?” Amy-chan asked me playfully.

I stood behind the counter, nervously watching the scene unfolding in front of me. Naruko had her arms crossed and let out a huff, her purple eyes narrowing suspiciously on Catelyn and Sansa. 

“Who are you two ...
