Chevreuse had thought she was beginning to understand the White Cat, but Luna's actions once again reminded her that perhaps she knew nothing at all about the Phantom Thief.
Luna straightened up and twirled lightly on her feet.
"Why indeed? I can give Miss Captain three answers. Care to guess which one is correct?"
Luna spun around lightly, raising a finger.
"One: Because the Miss Captain I admire belongs to the Court of Justice, and I'd rather keep being chased by her...

After a brief respite, Illya and Shinji Matou reappeared before the audience.
Illya stared at the seaweed-haired boy across from her, genuinely surprised that an ordinary Magus without a Servant had made it this far. They weren't well acquainted; their only previous encounter had been when Rin Tohsaka had visited her sister.
"Even Medea lost to you? Impressive."
"Are you looking down on me?" Shinji Matou scoffed. "Anyone could beat her in that state. It's practically a free ...

"Medea's luck seems to have run out. Despite Jason's Argo deck being packed with powerful cards, she never had the chance to showcase them. In any case, let's congratulate Shinji Matou on securing another victory! Once again, a mortal has triumphed over myth!"
Shinji Matou's fans erupted in cheers. His ability to reach the finals without relying on overwhelmingly powerful cards had earned him widespread admiration. Even if he lost this match, they would continue to cheer for him.

"Finally!" Firefly exclaimed, her boredom instantly dispelled as a colossal black tree loomed into view.
The tree was leafless, but its branches were unnervingly dense, resembling a tangled mass of human hair with barely any gaps between them.
Zooming in, Firefly clearly observed the giant tree shedding its bark. Chunks of bark peeled off and fell to the ground, wriggling briefly before transforming into the monsters she had previously slain.
"So, this thing is the monsters'...

Although the world within this Dimensional Rift appeared identical to a typical ancient Western setting, it was far from ordinary. This kingdom possessed an extraordinary metal known locally as "Magic Steel." Through specialized forging techniques, it could be crafted into incredibly powerful equipment.
For instance, there were greatswords that could ignite their blades in roaring flames, longswords that enhanced the wielder's strength and speed, daggers that inflicted wounds nearly imp...

Just as the soldier Jani had described, these monsters were bizarre and difficult to describe. They resembled giant octopuses crawling on land, but their bodies were like withered tree trunks, gnarled and wrinkled.
Firefly couldn't see any heads or facial features on these creatures. Instead, they propelled themselves across the ground using five or six root-like tentacles.
Described like this, the monsters might not sound particularly formidable. But what if each one was over thr...

Soon, Firefly and the others arrived at their room on the second floor of the inn. Though the city's environment left much to be desired, the room itself was surprisingly spacious and clean. This was likely because Wesley had gone straight to the best inn in town and booked the most expensive suite.
Wesley then evenly divided the thick stack of banknotes he carried among everyone, even giving Firefly over a dozen bills. He turned to his three teammates. "Next, we'll split up and explore...

Wesley froze, a hesitant expression flickering across his face. He held that uncertain look while the other man regarded him with equal confusion. They stared at each other for nearly ten seconds.
Just as Firefly expected the European professional to deliver some masterful persuasion, Wesley blurted out bluntly, "I'm sorry, I have no idea where this is or why we're here."
Firefly: "..."
The other man: "..."
Perhaps Wesley's earnestness won him over, or perhaps the lack...

The term "world" is used loosely here because after being transported through a Dimensional Rift, anything could happen.
Take Invincible Bro, for example. He encountered one of these rifts and ended up in a "game world."
Invincible Bro and eighty-one other ordinary people found themselves in a village, each possessing the ability of "Data Vision." In a game world, being able to view character panels is perfectly normal, right?
In that game world, all the NPCs in the village ...

As Firefly pondered these thoughts, the sound of approaching footsteps grew louder. Soon, four uniformed figures appeared before her.
Their blue eyes and hollowed sockets clearly marked them as foreigners—or, more accurately, Firefly was the foreigner in their eyes.
The group advanced cautiously, scanning their surroundings. They immediately spotted Firefly, and their leader launched into a rapid-fire string of words.
"Qui êtes-vous..."
Firefly: "?"

The interior of the Jade Chamber wasn't the ostentatious spectacle Qin Yu had imagined. While priceless artifacts adorned every corner, they blended seamlessly into a unified, ancient aesthetic, exuding an understated elegance.
This feels great! Qin Yu's eyes lit up.

A central staircase led downstairs. After a moment's hesitation, Qin Yu decided to descend.
The lower level had many rooms branching out ...

About two weeks into Qin Yu's job as a maid, the Head Maid suddenly said, "Pack your things."
Qin Yu was stunned. "Huh?!"
Have I been fired? How could this be? I've been working so hard every day! And what about my pay? If I don't get paid, all my work will have been for nothing!
"Um... is there something I've been doing wrong?" Qin Yu asked.
The Head Maid looked puzzled. "No, you're one of the few maids who actually makes my job easier. Aside from needing me to wake y...

To prepare for their confrontation, the group temporarily returned to the Li Family residence and gathered in the courtyard.
"Um, Qin Yu, you didn't have to lie for us earlier," Yanfei whispered, leaning close to Qin Yu's ear. "Even though we tricked them, we didn't gain anything from it. Even if the Millelith come, we'll be fine in the end! I'm a legal expert—I know every statute by heart. There won't be any trouble."
Don't whisper in my ear!

"Let me introduce you. This is my friend, Shenhe," Qin Yu said.
Shenhe could sense that something had changed in Qin Yu, but she believed that no matter how Qin Yu acted, she would always be Qin Yu.
Was a mountain hidden by cloud mist no longer a mountain? That made no sense.
Shenhe calmly said, "My name is Shenhe. I'm Qin Yu's... her friend."
The old woman peered at the white-haired girl before her. Though her eyesight was failing, she could still discern that this wa...

Going out in public... Qin Yu wasn't worried about running into anyone she knew. After all, she just needed to act completely ignorant afterward.
No one would pay any mind. Even if they inquired later and learned that the family's granddaughter resembled her, they'd likely dismiss any suspicions.
But running into Shenhe and the others would be a completely different story.
What if they overheard their evaluation?
For example:

Li Ren led Qin Yu and Yanfei to his family's residence, scratching his head.
"Ugh, I really don't want to go back... but I have no choice. Miss Qin, I'm sorry to trouble you with this acting gig. It won't take long, just an hour or two. Just keep my grandmother entertained, and then I'll take over."
An hour or two—two to four hours—was a bit long, but Qin Yu could barely accept it.
It was rather amusing, though.
To express her true self in front of others, she actu...

Whether Yanfei's shout reached him or not, the man ahead didn't stop. Qin Yu and Yanfei continued to chase after him.
As the distance between them steadily closed, they were about to catch him when the man kicked over a nearby crate. Apples spilled out like a tidal wave, scattering across the road and startling them both.
Whoa!? Qin Yu slammed on the brakes to avoid stepping on the fruit. Yanfei did the same, sighi...

To be honest, the situation was rather awkward. The Dragon Nation had braced itself for a fierce diplomatic showdown, only to find that the White Eagle hadn't even accused them.
The reason was simple: Martyr had genuinely infiltrated the Dragon Nation and concealed himself remarkably well. The White Eagle remained completely unaware of his whereabouts until all his Creations vanished and millions of people awoke from the Illusionary Realm. Only then did they realize Martyr had disappear...

It had to be said that the mere existence of an Erudition Aeon shattered the limits of Zhong Wanhong's imagination.

Robin, however, had extrapolated the workings of the entire cosmos. The difference in scale was staggering.

She seemed to be admiring the garden, but anyone observing her closely would notice her eyes were tightl...

Lü Heng was shocked. "What?! There's a group like that?!"

Yet there was a crucial difference. In the Old Testa...

In the White Eagle Free Federation, a colossal architectural marvel—a five-hundred-meter-tall structure shaped like an inverted pyramid—began to crumble slowly from top to bottom.
