As if sensing the looming danger, Yoshino quickly turned around, her pupils contracting in fear as she instinctively hugged her head and crouched low.
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion erupted, sending a tidal wave of shockwaves billowing outward. The surrounding buildings were blown apart, scattering debris in a cloud of smoke and dust.
After a long moment, Yoshino, who hadn't felt any pain, cautiously lifted her head, realizing she was unhurt. She peered through tear-blurred e...

Just as Kaguya was wondering why AST hadn't yet attempted to capture her, she quickly realized the reason: Kotori hadn't informed AST about her. For someone like Kotori, relying on others would be beneath her; otherwise, she'd have collaborated with AST or DEM Corporation by now instead of handling everything alone.
Origami led her to the registration office to officially enlist. But to Kaguya's surprise, joining AST required quite a tedious amount of paperwork, including filling out fo...

"What an honor, what a privilege this is for us…"
With the authority granted by Selene, Darnic guided the World Chronicle as it hovered in the center of the castle's grand hall, his words brimming with exaggerated excitement.
His extravagant yet sincere reaction was somewhat of a contradiction; on one hand, it seemed like a performance, and on the other, he was genuinely impressed by Selene's power. After all, the stronger the Servant, the higher the likelihood of victory in the...

"For my father—!"
In an instant, the area around Saber of Red, Mordred, became drenched in a blood-red light, centered on the radiant, Royal Sword clutched in her hands.
The light didn't stop there. What had once been a beautiful, silver-glowing sword became warped under the influence of her Noble Phantasm release, its noble form twisted into an ugly, blood-red monstrosity.
A buzzing, crackling noise filled the air as Mordred raised her weapon, now infused with an ominous ...

The school rooftop.
It's a place imbued with legendary charm.
Many high school romances have been kindled there, feelings nurtured and love sparked in its open air. For some, it's the iconic spot to confess to their crush, hoping to begin a new chapter together.
Of course, there's also the rooftop's darker side—the spot for breakups, heated arguments, and drama worthy of a soap opera.
Kotomi Izumi had always known that Sobu High School had a rooftop, but out of lazin...

On her way to the 1-D classroom, Izumi Kotomi nearly ran into Yui Yuigahama, who had just come out of the testing room.
Yuigahama's face lit up with joy upon seeing her. "Kotomi, I was just about to look for you!"
Thank goodness, Kotomi thought, noticing her friend seemed to be in a good mood. It looked like even if the test had been hard, Yui's spirits were intact.
"Yui, what did you think of the Japanese test?" Kotomi asked.
"Hard? Was it?" Yui tilted her head, not s...

Seeing this noble surrounded by guards, the nearby commoners all fearfully left the street.
The people in this small city knew this obese noble all too well—he was the son of the city's lord, and the soldiers around him were all part of the city guard. These guards, soldiers of the Empire, had now become the lord's private militia, abandoning their duty to protect the city and instead acting as loyal dogs in exchange for wealth and status.
This son of the lord was infamous throu...

A grating sound of metal grinding against metal filled the air as Saber of Red, Mordred, sensed an approaching threat. The next moment—Boom!—a thunderous explosion erupted, and the stone buildings on either side of the street where Mordred and her Master, Kairi Sisigou, stood shattered in an instant. Boulders, each weighing hundreds to thousands of pounds, rained down toward the pair like a deadly barrage.
Truthfully, as a Heroic Spirit with the ability to demateria...

Reflecting on the Holy Grail War in Romania, it took place between the Fourth and Fifth Holy Grail Wars in Fuyuki City. The Yggdmillennia clan of Romania (the Black faction), having acquired the Greater Grail, summoned seven Servants and defected from the Mage's Association. This action triggered the Grail's internal security system.
When all seven Servants belong to one faction, the Greater Grail automatically establishes another faction by selecting seven Masters and summoning their S...

"Kaguya was slightly taken aback. 'Very dangerous?' she asked, surprised.
Had Yatogami Tohka been affected by some butterfly effect due to Kaguya's arrival, causing her to change?
Origami nodded seriously. 'Yes. This Spirit is considered an evil one, personally responsible for over ten thousand deaths. She possesses immense power and even some baffling abilities, putting her at the highest danger level, an S-Class Spirit.'

After speaking with Origami, Kaguya realized that the timeline had shifted in unexpected ways since her arrival in this world.
To start, Origami's parents had narrowly escaped death and only sustained minor injuries in the fire five years ago. However, whether due to a kind of historical inertia, they met a grim fate days later in an unexpected car accident, ultimately leaving Origami orphaned.
The fire, nonetheless, had caused tremendous destruction, killing hundreds and leveling...

When Megumi Kato suddenly requested a hug, Kotomi felt a bit puzzled. Was Megumi even really nervous? But then she thought, since she'd already hugged Yui, wouldn't it be unfair not to do the same for Megumi?

"Still nervous?" she whispered softly in Megumi's ear.

Eriri didn't transform Myne's body to the same degree as Kato Megumi and the others, who could only absorb cosmic energy. Instead, she simply modified Myne's body to absorb the excess magic power within herself for self-strengthening. For Eriri, this process was incredibly simple, requiring only a flick of her fingers.
She also elEffated Myne's magic purity several levels, such that her internal magic surpassed all humans in this world, second only to the gods.
And over time, her ...

Kaguya frowned, raising her arm as a powerful force gathered in her palm. Getting attacked out of nowhere would leave anyone in a sour mood, and the whole situation was already so convoluted that Kaguya felt like she was lost in a fog.
Just as she was about to counterattack, a white figure streaked toward her like lightning. Instinctivel...

From Eriri's mannerisms and attire, Myne was over ninety percent certain Eriri wasn't from this world. Yet her question wasn't meant to blame Eriri, for she'd already considered herself lucky to have been given a second life after her previous one had ended, tragically crushed by books. Although, s...

Myne, five years old, is a reincarnator who awakened memories of her past life three days ago after nearly dying. Overwhelmed by the sheer volume of those memories—far more than her mere five years of life here—she felt her previous identity dominating her present self, convincing her she was an outsider occupying "Myne's" body.
In her past life, Myne had been a university student named Urano Motosu, a young woman with a passion for reading that could only be described as obsessive....

In the distance, it felt like someone was calling out for help—a small, indistinct voice, somewhere between near and far, and it sounded like a little girl.
She wanted to go and help, but it was as if she were trapped in a nightmare, her body stiff and unable to move. She tried to open her mouth to call out, but ...
