“Click.”
“Clack.”
Firelight flickered in the dim corner of the casino. A tall man sat at a table, his gaunt face covered in tattooed patterns. Beneath the stripe-like ink, there was a mark near the corner of his eye—like a teardrop, or a hanging dagger.
Metal plating covered his entire jaw, turning it into an “iron chin.” Right now, he stared gloomily at the lighter dancing in his hand. Behind him stood his most trusted subordinate.
“Silco called all th...

“Morning—mm. Scoot over a bit, I need to brush my teeth too.”
“Mm-ya!”
One big and one small, two sleepy women appeared in front of Logan. He was brushing his teeth, watching as Jinx showed up with squinted eyes.
Her beautiful blue hair spilled messily down her back. A few unruly strands hung over her brows as she tipped her chin up, yawning lazily at Logan—one hand rubbing her eye, the other slipping into her pajama top to reveal a pale, soft belly while she scr...

“You’re saying you want to take down a Chem-Baron? Wait—are you serious?”
Ekko stared at Logan like he’d lost his mind. “You can hit them, sure, but you want to pull them off the throne—tear down their rule completely?”
“Why not?” Logan replied.
Ekko shook his head, voice dropping. “Because you can’t!”
“The Chem-Barons are all under Silco. He’ll let his dogs fight each other, sure, but he won’t let anyone else put their hands on that pie...

Inside the room, Ekko watched Jinx sprawled off to one side while a little girl sat beside her, playing with toys in Jinx’s hands. The look in Ekko’s eyes only grew more complicated.
“Snap!”
At the sharp sound of fingers snapping, Marsen shot Ekko an irritated look and leaned in to mutter by his ear, “What are you staring at? That’s the boss’s girl.”
“Marsen… are they really together?” Ekko kept his eyes on Jinx’s back. The cloud patterns on her small...

“Ekko, y-you… what the hell is going on?!”
Seeing Ekko raise a weapon and square off against the Spirit Blossom Gang, Zeri—who had no idea what just happened—immediately tensed up too.
Are we about to fight?
But… there are so many of them!
If this turns into a brawl, is it really going to be me and Ekko against this whole crowd?
But… I just met Ekko today!
Still… I literally just said I wanted to be friends with him. If it really comes to fighting...

“Oh my god, it’s really you!”
Manzu hugged Ekko hard, pounding his back like he was trying to make sure he was real.
“You’re still alive? Shorty, where the hell have you been all these years? By Janna—do you know we were looking for you not long ago? We’ve formed an organization now!”
Manzu let him go. Seeing Ekko staring at him like he’d gone blank, Manzu burst out laughing. “What’s with that face? Damn, Ekko—you don’t recognize me anymore, do you?...

At the entrance to Blackwater Alley, Zeri walked in front with a sour little face, looking thoroughly unimpressed.
Behind her was a boy who’d taken off his hat—dark-skinned, with white hair. His face was painted with white pigment in a pattern that looked like an hourglass. His eyes stayed on Zeri’s back while he rubbed the back of his head.
“Sorry, Zeri. I misunderstood. I thought you were trying to join us.”
“But I didn’t mean any harm. I just… I thought we...

Morning in Zaun. Vi pushed herself up from the mat, cupped her hands in front of her face, and blew into them. Warm breath hit her palms—and mixed with the Grey—making her shiver.
Wearing a sports bra, she started loosening up her arms and shoulders, then walked over to the mirror. First, she swept her hair up, exposing a delicate, almost perfect face… and then she used her hands to mess with it again.
She let the red hair fall back down, hiding those sharp features, dulling...

Kuchiki Kōga stared at the man standing amid the rain of petals, speaking in a tone that was hard to tell—sorrow, or relief.
“End this farce… please.”
The man—Kuchiki Byakuya—spoke with a pained heaviness.
“Do I even have a way back?”
Kuchiki Kōga gripped his Zanpakutō and stood on the ground, the corner of his mouth twitching.

After Yuto and Madara smashed the meteor to pieces, both of their gazes fell onto Hashirama at the same time.
“Long time no see, Hashirama!”
With a faint, indistinct smile on his face, Yuto stood atop the giant-form Kongō Fūsa (Adamantine Sealing Chains), looking down at Hashirama below.
“Hashirama… last time, I lost to you. But this time, you’re not my opponent anymore.”
Madara also stared down from above, his tone flat as he looked at Hashirama beneath ...

Archer showed a vicious grin as he “helpfully” explained it to Grey and Sabrina on the spot.
So they wouldn’t end up suffering themselves after ordering Teleport.
He was gambling—gambling that once they heard that, Grey and Sabrina wouldn’t dare use those two moves!

The instant Harry stepped out of the portal, a sharp, piercing whine tore through the air—then a dense storm of bullets poured toward him like torrential rain, screaming as they cut through the room.
But just as they were about to touch him, they slammed into an invisible, overwhelming resistance. Under the pull of electromagnetic force, they stopped dead—frozen in midair exactly one meter in front of him.

Roger Eikam believed in constellations. When he was little, his grandmother had taken him out under the night sky, pointing at the stars one by one, teaching him what Gemini was, what Leo was.
And the one Roger knew best was Scorpio.
Because his birthday fell within Scorpio’s dates.
Yet he still didn’t understand why these mysterious signs kept pointing him toward “Scorpio” again and again.
Was Scorpio some kind of hint? Did it carry some special meaning?

Ilúvatar was a generous god. He answered the outsiders’ doubts, explaining two paths by which a world could be created, and also why he chose to create at all.
Skyl, Moonshadow, and a host of Valar listened as he described the ways of creation. By the time Dumbledore arrived, the description of how to make a world had already ended. Ilúvatar dismissed the Valar, and spoke only to the three outsiders about the true reason behind his creation—his intent, and his heart.

Wormmon nuzzled affectionately against Ken’s right leg, looking oddly satisfied as it spoke. “Now you understand, Ken.”

Inside the Spirit Blossom Gang’s base—a house that was finally starting to look halfway decent—
Logan stared at a stack of ledgers in front of him with a splitting headache.
Behind him, back-to-back with his, was Jinx. She stretched her long, pale fingers out, holding up a book as she read. If you looked closely, you’d see it was packed with detailed assembly guides and principles for different purification units.
Her long blue braid draped down in front of Logan, bl...

Wearing a shirt splashed with graffiti, Vi escorted Caitlyn to the Screaming Lift.
Vi remembered this thing used to be busted and barely holding together. But now, with Hextech slapped onto it, even though the basic structure hadn’t really changed, it looked… chunkier. Rounder. Almost like it had gotten fat.
Honestly, compared to how it used to look, the lift was kind of… cute now.

“So how are we supposed to find the Firelights?”
Inside the tent, Vi hugged a blanket to her chest and spread it out on the ground. Of course she wanted to stay with Powder. She was still hoping Powder might talk to her—maybe even like when they were kids, curling up in her arms, staring at her with that look of worship while she told her stories.
But Jinx didn’t go near Vi. She only glanced at her a few times before walking over to Logan and Isha. Their bedding was over t...

Walking back with Isha, Logan’s expression was a little stiff.
Honestly, even before he went to The Last Drop, he’d already imagined how the conversation with Silco would end. The odds of success were basically zero. If Silco were that easy to persuade, he wouldn’t be Silco. For Zaun, the man was a lunatic who’d throw away his own life without blinking.
You couldn’t “talk therapy” someone like that into surrender.
It was almost funny—other transmigrators ran ...

Inside the room, Silco neither agreed nor disagreed. He pulled his hand out from under the table and rested it on the tabletop, rubbing his gaunt chin with three fingers as he watched Logan in silence.
“Silco… I mean, uncle—do you really think you can make Zaun independent?” Logan asked first.
Silco went quiet, meeting Logan’s eyes. Seeing the sincere look on Logan’s face, Silco pinched the bridge of his nose and finally spoke.

Back at the Spirit Blossom Gang’s hideout, Marsen spotted Logan and immediately came over.
Then he saw Jinx—already back to normal, messing around with Isha like nothing happened on the way back—and Vi, who looked completely hollowed out, her mood at rock bottom.
They go out once, and Vi comes back looking like this?
Marsen was curious.
Too bad nobody was going to answer him, because Logan was already leading Jinx and Isha straight toward the tent.

“That’s… genuinely surprising, Logan. How did you do it?”
Silco glanced at the Shimmer brute on the ground, then looked up and asked Logan.
Now that he could see Jinx was unharmed, he’d already pulled himself back from that moment of losing control.
“Simple,” Logan replied. “Jump down, then smash into him.”
“Logan, you wouldn’t have dared talk to me like this before.” Silco studied him—so steady, so composed—and spoke suddenly. “I remember...

On the narrow path climbing up toward the Entresol, Jinx kept one hand on Isha and the other on a signal flare. The old-model flare had only sputtered for a moment before dying out, and Jinx shook it hard.
"Pfft—pfft—"
Two weak bursts of smoke coughed out. Jinx frowned, pissed, and whipped the flare away.
"I've been treasuring this thing for years!"
"And it's just a piece of junk!"
Isha looked up at the fuming Jinx, then shrank her neck instinctively and turn...

Ahri raised her hand, and a firefly drifted down to perch on her curved fingertip. She narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled.
"Child, do you see this tiny firefly on my fingertip? It isn't a true soul—it's a fragment that naturally split off after a powerful soul dispersed."

He stayed outside like security, refusing to let anyone in—especially that tall, long-legged Enforcer who looked thoroughly annoyed.

At eight in the evening, on Zaun's Entresol, along the main road leading down into the Sump, Marsen walked in front. All of a sudden, he lifted one hand and gave a small, subtle wave behind him.
Not far back, three figures—two adults and one child—were following him at a distance.
Logan and Jinx had both put on cloaks. There was no other reason: the Sump currently had wanted notices for both Logan and Jinx. If they didn't pull their hoods up to hide their faces, there was no w...
