Chapter 68: Who's the Underdog?

Keqing was exceptionally irritated, as anyone familiar with her could tell from the nervous tapping of her fingers against her arm.

The reason for her frustration was simple.

Wouldn't anyone feel this way if they saw their childhood friend being flustered by a colleague, their face flushed crimson in broad daylight?

What exactly is going on here?

"Oh, it's you," Ningguang said, her tone sharp. "Judging by your expression, you seem to have misunderstood. We wer...

Chapter 174: Completely Entangled

The two continued to stroll through Fontaine until dusk approached. Leaning against a railing, Luna picked up a french fry from the box and popped it into her mouth.

"Having fun, Miss Captain?" Luna offered a french fry.

Chevreuse glanced at her, took the fry, and nibbled off small pieces. "I'm not here to play."

"Still saying that after all this? You're really stubborn, Miss Captain," Luna mumbled around the fry dangling from her lips.

"Swallow before you speak."

Chapter 173: Don't Look at Others, Just Look at Me

The broad strokes of the modus operandi were now clear, though the finer details might differ from reality. This didn't hinder the immediate launch of a targeted investigation.

All that remained were the suspects' testimonies.

Three suspects—a classic setup. Luna planted her hands on her hips and glanced sideways at Chevreuse.

"Shall I handle the questioning, or will you?"

"Of course I'll handle this," Chevreuse replied. "Don't forget your current identity."

Sh...

Chapter 171: The First Step of Tolerance Leads to the Second

Chevreuse opened her pocket watch. It was 8:00 AM.

Dressed in casual clothes, she stood at the corner of the plaza, sighed, and closed the watch. She wouldn't consider this a "date."

It was merely an opportunity to learn more about Phantom Thief White Cat.

Just a private meeting.

Chevreuse crossed her arms and surveyed her surroundings.

Chevreuse seemed agitated, but not because her "date" hadn't arrived. The "package" she'd just received had thrown her off balan...

Chapter 107: Dimensional Rift-Attachment

Even Firefly herself was stunned, let alone the reporters below.

She had been flying straight toward the Dimensional Rift in the sky, but shortly after emerging from the water, she felt as if she had crashed into something invisible.

In an instant, the azure sky, towering icebergs, and tranquil ice plains vanished completely, as if a colossal curtain had been lifted to reveal the scene behind it.

The first things to catch her eye were four immense square stone pillars, each ...

Chapter 106: Big News

Swimming isn't actually that difficult. Once you overcome your fear of the water and learn to hold your breath, the rest is just a matter of practice.

For more advanced techniques, you can exhale small amounts of air while swimming to reduce your buoyancy and achieve a simple form of diving—the easiest way to dive without any equipment.

Of course, this will shorten your breath-holding time underwater, but that wasn't a major concern for Firefly. She continued swimming steadily f...

Chapter 105: The Beach and the Sand

Chin resting in her hand, Firefly gazed out the window at the blue sky dotted with fluffy white clouds. She was on a flight to Borkum Island, a destination recommended by Wesley.

She had certainly flown in her previous life, but perhaps because this world was set in 2045, this aircraft was exceptionally smooth and incredibly fast.

Most strikingly, the plane boasted a futuristic, all-black fuselage and a sleek, streamlined exterior. From its appearance alone, it hardly resembled a ...

Chapter 104: Super Rich Woman

After careful consideration, Firefly ultimately chose the Arctic Ocean Dimensional Rift as her first target.

News reports about the rift had been circulating for years, with the earliest dating back three years. This meant the rift had existed for at least that long.

Photos of the rift were readily available in almost any news article: a perfectly circular black hole resembling the sun during a total solar eclipse.

Headlines typically read:

The Bizarre Dimensional Rift...

Chapter 103: Future Plans

After a quick once-over of her overall appearance, Firefly naturally moved on to examining the finer details.

Of course, don't get the wrong idea—she was referring to her height!

Anyone seeing Firefly for the first time would immediately think she was very young or petite, but that wasn't entirely accurate. She was actually quite tall, standing at around 167-168 centimeters.

While not exceptionally tall, she was at least on par with Robin's height, perhaps even slightly ta...

Chapter 102: I'm So Cute~

Describing her previous world was easy. Firefly simply referred to it as her "previous life," an existence so utterly ordinary and unremarkable that it perfectly suited the persona she wanted to project. Even if Wesley had a lie detector on her right then, it wouldn't register a thing—because it was the truth.

Soon, the image of a typical high school girl living in a similar world untouched by Dimensional Rifts formed in Wesley's mind. After all, Firefly had just mentioned she was eig...

Chapter 101: Wesley: What Happened?

The perspective shifted to Wesley. The elderly City Lord was still describing the terrifying Giant Tree, continuing for quite some time before changing the subject.

"Rest assured, everyone," he said. "As long as we can defend Feid City, the Republic will forge that ultimate enchanted weapon within half a moon. I will entrust it to you all, hoping it will aid us in the final battle!"

"Understood," Wesley nodded. With this information, they had essentially pieced together everything...

Chapter 4: The Rewards of Effort

"Meow~"

Having run so far, the Cat missed the item right in front of it and forgot to practice speaking with the two big cats.

The Cat glanced at its belly, barely feeling hungry anymore.

Reminder to Host: Self-generated Energy is insufficient. Please acquire Portal Energy by completing Missions and Achievements.

Reminder to Host: Please claim the physical reward for your new Achievement.

Reminder to Host: You ha...

Chapter 3: Never Empty-Handed

"Meow meow meow meow!"

"You, me, him."

"A, B, C, D, E, F, G..."

"Yo~shi."

The torrential rain had stopped.

It was late evening by the wilderness lake.

The round, fluffy Fluffball ambled along with a slightly awkward gait, its three-lobed mouth opening to emit a clear, childish voice as it practiced the newly learned and still unfamiliar languages of the world.

Though the System had forcibly imprinted basic language knowledge into its mind, having neve...

Chapter 2: Hoofprints

"There is no true fairness in the world. That which you need most is always the most expensive, little cat."

Like a dream, the crowned corpse's phantom stood with its back to the cat, pointing with a pierced hand as it left behind words both cryptic and prophetic:

"Never trust a demon's temptations."

"The third phase of the final stretch—that's your location."

Behind him, the cat blinked.

Like an apparition from the holy texts, the vision of the Saint's remains...

Chapter 1: The Demon and the Saint

The Steel Ball Run race, a grueling cross-continental marathon spanning approximately 6,000 kilometers, began at 10:00 AM on September 25, 1890. Starting on the Pacific shores of San Diego and ending in New York, it was humanity's first attempt to traverse the North American continent on horseback.

The competition was open to participants of all nationalities, races, social statuses, and skill levels. Even the transportation requirements were minimal: anything rideable, whether horse, v...
