The icy sunlight reflected off the bridge, where Fu Hua stood with her hands clasped behind her back, gazing out into the void through the massive golden arched window in front of her.
Beneath her feet, the double-headed eagle emblem of the Empire gleamed under the interior lighting.
Through the near-orbital formation of Imperial Navy ships, her eyes were fixed on the vast expanse of space, captivated by the water-blue planet hanging in the void.
The icy blue coastlines serv...

The afternoon passed quickly, and by around five in the evening, Eriri followed Nodoka Haramura back to her house.
Before arriving, Eriri had already decided to spend a few enjoyable days in this world, at least until the conclusion of the preliminaries.
Eriri had no plans to return to the Saekano world immediately and instead intended to stay with Nodoka for a few days.
Nodoka, of course, happily agreed. Getting to live with Eriri for a few days was something she couldn't h...

After recruiting Kurumi Tokisaki, the rest of the work became much simpler.
The Bulins quickly cordoned off a section of the surrounding area and continued constructing the Spiritron Receiver.
This location was already desolate, and Tohru casually added a few recognition-obstruction spells.
Anyone passing by would only think that some sort of signal tower was being built nearby.
During the one or two days of construction downtime, the shipgirls, Tohru, and Kurumiâ...

Snezhnaya
Although Snezhnaya is a nation shrouded in ice and snow, it does not resemble the lifeless, frozen expanse of Dragonspine. Instead, it is remarkably prosperous, with its people enjoying the bounties that the cold climate brings. Apart from being unable to achieve self-sufficiency in food production, Snezhnaya's commerce is second only to Liyue in activity.
Snezhnaya's advancements in civilian technology have created an exceptionally convenient transportation system. Stea...

Welt and Dan Heng had originally planned to retreat to their rooms to rest and recover from the lingering psychological shadows of Himeko's coffee. However, the thought of the new recruits accidentally drinking said coffee—and possibly suffering a form of "food poisoning"—made them reconsider.
After organizing the supplies and ingredients they had procured from Earth, they decided to prepare a proper welcome for the new companions, planning a grand group dinner and party.

"Would you mind if I sit across from you?" Rize Kamishiro walked gracefully over, her demeanor ladylike, and smiled politely as she asked.
"There seem to be plenty of empty seats, though," Kaguya mumbled, her words somewhat muffled as she chewed on her sandwich.
"Apologies," Rize said with a hint of regret, her tone soft. "You resemble a friend of mine, so I felt a sense of familiarity when I saw you. But if it bothers you, I can find another seat." As she spoke, her delicate face...

Any issue that stirs national sentiment often becomes incredibly complicated.
From the perspective of the populace, when the Fatui are causing trouble right at Fontaine's doorstep, failing to retaliate and teach them a harsh lesson feels shameful. Wouldn't that tarnish Fontaine's reputation?
In the eyes of the public, Fontaine's dignity is inviolable. Any provocation must be met with a strong response.
But on a national level, there are numerous complications. The Fatui's di...

Yui Yuigahama clung to Kotomi for a long while before gradually calming down, her small nose twitching as she spoke:
"Kotomi, I almost had a heart attack when I saw the news on TV this morning."
Although her inner tension remained, Yui lowered her voice and whispered cautiously, "How did you end up involved in a murder case?"
Yui knew about her involvement in the murder case?
Hearing that she had learned about it from the news, Kotomi felt an involuntary twinge of anxi...

Even without Mobius explaining further, Fu Hua immediately understood.
When the genetic structure remains unchanged, human physiology is preserved without grotesque mutations, and even cultural heritage continues unbroken, weren't these enhanced human warriors under Selene's command the very template for human evolution that the Flame-Chasers had been striving for all along?
Moreover, the scale of these warriors far surpassed what the super-transformation surgeries of the MANTIS p...

"Eriri, you're here," Nodoka said with a bright smile.
Eriri's sudden arrival was a pleasant surprise for Nodoka, as Eriri hadn't notified her in the chat group beforehand.
"Mm-hmm," Eriri nodded with a smile. Noticing the ongoing mahjong game at the table, she reached out to stroke Nodoka's soft pink hair and asked, "Nodoka, have you all had lunch yet?"

Dawn approached, with the shining morning star glittering in the sky. The eastern horizon gradually turned pale, and the clouds became lighter and brighter. Finally, a beam of sunlight burst forth from the edge of the horizon as a red sun rose steadily.

The blue box stood out strikingly against the white snow.
Looking at the box, Peruere's expression shifted subtly.

In the outskirts of Tengu City, deep within a forest, sat a semi-abandoned park.
It was a desolate place, rarely visited except by the occasional hiker or fitness enthusiast.
At the heart of the park, on a lone bench, a stunning schoolgirl casually sat with a pack of snacks in her hand, teasing a small cat curled up beside her.
She looked about sixteen or seventeen, her petite frame accentuating an almost ethereal beauty.
Her long black hair was styled into twin tails,...

"Ahhh! I'm going to die!"
"I'm done for! One more hit and it's over!"
Meanwhile, Noah strolled leisurely away from the Abyss, his interest in the humanoid yet grotesque Abyssal beings virtually nonexistent. At the very least, they'd have to resemble someone as adorably cute as Melusine to catch his attention.
However, a thought struck him: subordinates tended to alt...

The scene etched itself into the hearts of the three girls, stirring something profound within them.
The setting sun cast its golden rays behind the five figures, stretching their shadows far and wide until they covered the girls' faces. It was like a moment ripped straight from the kind of anime they'd watched growing up—heroes who defeated the demon king, raised the banner of victory, and left a thriving world behind without a trace, only to quietly walk away.

"The will of the Hydro Archon is now clear to me," said the Tsaritsa.
In the frozen halls of Snezhnaya's palace, the Tsaritsa was seated on her throne of ice, her voice devoid of any emotion, as cold and indifferent as the frost itself.
