Dao Of Heaven

Chapter 15: Trust in Science

Just outside a small town, in the desolate countryside—

A young girl in a Demon Slayer uniform with black hair and violet eyes, adorned with butterfly-shaped hairpins, was desperately dodging attacks.

Her body was riddled with wounds, and her uniform, along with the butterfly-patterned haori draped over her shoulders, was soaked with blood.

Nearby, several corpses clad in Demon Slayer uniforms lay scattered. Their deaths were horrifying, suggesting that they had suffered b...

Chapter 14: The First Expedition to Another World

To be honest, Setsuna wasn't particularly interested in the various Breathing Techniques or Blood Demon Arts of the Demon Slayer world.

The power ceiling in this world wasn't exactly high.

Physical enhancement?

Could mere mortal flesh compare to his body, now on par with shipgirls, after absorbing a Wisdom Cube?

Combat power?

A joke. Even if someone managed to build a legendary Nichirin Blade-sized Gundam, they couldn't scratch his armor.

While Blood Demon ...

Chapter 13: Let’s Trick This Fool Into Coming to the Harbor

"Hmph, bluffing. They gave me quite a scare."

"Next time, I swear I'll catch one of you, make her recite the Doctrine of Behavior eight hundred times—no, three hundred will do!"

After the shipgirls retreated, the Purifier remained stunned on the ocean for a long time before snapping back to reality.

In truth, the damage they caused wasn't significant. Her main forces—battleships and aircraft carriers—were barely scratched.

As for the destroyed destroyers and frig...

Chapter 12: Sirens: What the Heck Was That?!

At first, Setsuna was just teasing Akashi.

He hadn't seriously expected to build a Gundam out of thin air.

Rome wasn't built in a day. Before constructing a Gundam, a series of fundamental technological barriers had to be overcome.

But Akashi seemed to take it seriously. She holed herself up in her workshop for several days, buried in a mountain of design blueprints. Occasionally, when she emerged for fresh air, she'd mutter things like, "I will deploy in Gundam form," "Unic...

Chapter 11: The Founding Ceremony

As the final step in proclaiming the official establishment of a civilization, the founding ceremony of the Starsea Alliance was naturally placed on the agenda.

At dawn, the sun rose slowly over the sea, casting its first rays across the azure ocean.

In the naval base square, the shipgirls and Bulins stood in formation, grouped in threes and fours.

They were uniformly dressed in black-and-red military uniforms, including the Bulins, who had donned black dresses.

Even t...

Chapter 545: Infiltrating the CCG

The night sky was hazy, dotted with scattered stars.

The evening had already deepened, and after the earlier commotion, the city had grown eerily quiet. The show Kaguya wanted to see didn't happen, and instead, she had wasted a good chunk of time. Now, the entire city felt hollow. The streets were almost deserted, with only a few scattered pedestrians and vehicles passing by. The lively neon lights were the only signs of vitality left in the urban sprawl.

"Recently, there have bee...

Chapter 46: The Harbinger's Arrival

"This is the situation in brief," Zhongli explained, recounting the loosening of the seal on Azhdaha, the emergence of its benevolent aspect, and its plea for death as a means of liberation.

Naturally, Zhongli omitted the fact that Azhdaha's awakening was triggered by the anomalies in Fontaine's Primordial Sea.

After all, admitting this would imply that he had long been aware of the interaction between Azhdaha and the Primordial Sea, which would be… awkward.

Not that it ma...

Chapter 267: Soft and Sneaky Cat

The entire Japanese language class was spent on a test. Although Shizuka Hiratsuka had referred to it as a "small quiz," it consumed the entire period.

By the time the tests were collected, many students wore expressions of despair, their faces crestfallen. Some were visibly racking their brains, likely already dreading how to explain their performance to their parents.

After gathering the tests, Hiratsuka-sensei lingered briefly before dismissing the class. With an air of gravity...

Chapter 266: Voice Actor Skill Level

Walking on her way to school, Kotomi couldn't help but revel in the sound of money jingling in her mind.

To clarify, it wasn't an insult. She was imagining the pleasant sound of coins falling into a treasure pot. Kotomi loved that sound—it meant another deposit of Fame Points had come in.

Even though she was walking side by side with Megumi on their way to school, Kotomi confidently summoned the system interface in her vision. Thanks to its special visual encryption, no one but ...

Chapter 354: Offering Blessings to This Wonderful World

"Why do this?"

"For coordinates."

Feeling the intent conveyed by the Will of Honkai, Selene responded in a detached tone.

A tide of Lesser Honkai Beasts born solely from 1000 HW of energy, without the leadership of higher-tier entities, would do little more than cull the population and spread global panic. In terms of real impact, it was negligible.

Would Selene really waste such a vast amount of Honkai energy on creating mere Lesser Beasts without further action? That...

Chapter 353: The Return of the Honkai Eruption

"I'll take care of everything."

With Selene's connection to the Will of Honkai established, she bypassed the birth of the Eleventh Herrscher (Herrscher of Binding), the Twelfth Herrscher (Herrscher of Corruption), and the natural progression of the Thirteenth Herrscher to directly take up the authority of the Fourteenth Herrscher—Herrscher of Finality, the embodiment of the End.

Boom!

Like the resonating beat of a titan's war drum, a deafening roar rolled across t...

Chapter 284: The Fallen Vampire Princess

Without paying any attention to the dazed guards at the inn's entrance, Eriri and her group walked straight into the establishment.

The entire first floor of the inn functioned as a dining area. Perhaps due to the exorbitant prices of this premier adventurer inn in the royal capital, there were only a few patrons scattered throughout.

The arrival of Eriri's group naturally drew attention. A gathering of such stunning beauties would turn heads anywhere.

Suddenly, a low, delig...

Chapter 283: Cursed No More

After learning the contents of Jircniv Rune Farlord El-Nix's overactive imagination, Arche found it amusing but chose not to explain or clarify anything.

Once her discussion with Jircniv concluded, Fluder Paradyne, who had been outwardly composed but inwardly brimming with excitement, suddenly stepped forward. His gaze locked onto Arche, his eyes burning with an insatiable thirst for knowledge.

"Arche, could you tell me how you became so powerful?" Fluder asked, his voice tremblin...

Chapter 10: Can Azure Horizons Count as Military Uniform?

The system's response puzzled Setsuna for quite a while.

What did it mean to "upgrade to a formal civilization"?

Not enough people? Insufficient strength?

That didn't make sense. One glance at the Hyperdimensional Star Map revealed that after the Vanguard Fleet arrived in this world, the military strength of the opposing faction—like the one in the Demon Slayer world—had been reduced to insignificant ants.

A civilization stuck in the Steam Era stood no chance again...

Chapter 9: More Torpedoes Than Fish at Home

"The tech tree went off course the moment I stepped out the door."

This was Setsuna's conclusion about his current situation.

With the support of the Azur Lane shipgirls, his settlement had rapidly advanced to the early space-age level—or, more accurately, its military technology had reached that level. In contrast, fields like agriculture and light industry were virtually non-existent.

This contrast became even more apparent when he reviewed the settlement's inventory. 2024-11-29 18:57:49 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 8: Who Starts Farming by Maxing Out Military Tech?

Setsuna had no idea when Richelieu decided to appoint herself as his secretary ship.

But clearly, her statement had caused a massive uproar.

The previously pacified Taihou immediately challenged Richelieu to a duel, citing that the position of secretary ship should belong to the strongest shipgirl in the fleet.

Ten minutes later.

"You pest, just you wait!!!"

The defeated Taihou was dragged away by Formidable.

Well, it turns out that Richelieu really was the...

Chapter 7: I Need More High-Energy Bulins!

Three weeks later.

In Southern Europe, under a clear blue sky, a fleet composed of battleships and carriers sailed into the Mediterranean from northern Italy.

The shipgirls, now at sea, were noticeably more spirited.

Though they claimed building a city inland was fine, they were clearly more at ease navigating the boundless oceans.

Leading the fleet was the flagship of the Vanguard Fleet, Richelieu, flanked by several carriers. Cruisers and destroyers maintained positi...

Chapter 6: Trade Agreement, Non-Aggression Pact, and Military Alliance

The treaty document was dozens of pages long, its wording and phrasing exuding the grandeur of a formal diplomatic declaration.

The level of effort and seriousness the shipgirls of the harbor had invested was clear.

Setsuna read through the document carefully. At its core, the content was relatively straightforward.

• Trade Agreement: Azur Lane would send a Vanguard Fleet to help rebuild civilization on Earth while extracting resources from the planet. A portion of these r...

Chapter 5: Technically, I’m Half a Shipgirl

"The Wisdom Cube… was absorbed?"

In the main building of the harbor, Enterprise and the flagship representatives of several fleets listened, wide-eyed, as Akashi recounted the incident.

Richelieu stood nearby, quietly nodding as she added details about what had happened.

"When Mr. Setsuna touched the Wisdom Cube, it dissolved like water and vanished into his hand. Then, he collapsed."

"..."

The shipgirls exchanged uneasy glances.

Based on their long-term ...

Chapter 544: The Akatsuki Organization

The world was exactly as Kaguya suspected—it was indeed the world of Tokyo Ghoul. The coffee shop was none other than the "Anteiku" from the original story. The reactions of its inhabitants also aligned perfectly with her expectations. In particular, the shop owner seemed to have caught onto something, which was likely why he came down from upstairs. Though his stance appeared casual, Kaguya noticed that he had subtly positioned himself in front of Touka Kirishima, shielding her. 2024-11-29 14:09:04 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 265: Kotomi, I Really Want to Know

"Aimi," Kotomi suddenly called out mid-sentence.

Startled, Aimi looked up from where she was sitting and instinctively hid the bottle of Coca-Cola behind her. Her heart pounded in panic, thinking she had been caught.

"What's wrong, Onee-chan?"

"Take the bottles of Pepsi in the bag downstairs and put them in the fridge to chill. As for this one in my hand, stick it in the freezer. Once I finish helping you with your homework, we'll have ice-cold soda ready to drink."

"O...

Chapter 264: A Battle of Wits Between Sisters

"Related to sound?"

Kotomi tilted her head in confusion. Her voice was already quite pleasant—soothing and enchanting. Especially when she used a coquettish tone, it could make someone's very bones melt. Even her natural speaking voice carried a subtle allure that made it impossible not to be drawn in.

No matter how she thought about it, she didn't seem to be in dire need of a skill related to sound… Wait a second—could it be music?!

Kazumi had only said it was "relate...

Chapter 352: The Will of Honkai– Welcome Home

Selene's directive to assign "new recruits" was readily accepted by Budo, Leiva, and Alex.

As one of the Empire's most senior leaders and the nominal second-in-command of its military, Budo was the first to speak. True to Selene's prediction, he selected Sakazuki without hesitation—their shared iron-blooded, hawkish demeanor made them natural allies.

For the second pick, Selene took the initiative before Leiva could voice his choice.

"Leiva, assign Borsalino to your legion...

Chapter 351: Assigning You a Few People

"Father, I… I'm scared."

Walking through the opulently decorated corridor, heading deeper into the palace gardens, Shirahoshi showed a mix of curiosity and fear. Though she had ventured out of her hard-shell tower to see the outside world, trepidation overshadowed her fascination.

The golden-armored Imperial Guard stationed in every corner of the corridor felt like silent harbingers of death to her. Their cold gazes made her feel suffocated and helpless, as if the scent of death...

Chapter 282: The Emperor’s Overactive Imagination

"Hmm..." Hearing Arche's question, Ureirika set down her utensils and made a thoughtful expression. After a few seconds, she suddenly broke into a radiant smile and declared, "I want to travel the world with Nee-chan!"

"Ureirika, that's not fair!" Kuuderika, seeing her sister beat her to a decision, puffed up her cheeks in protest before quickly adding, "Me too! I want to travel the world with Nee-chan as well!"

"Alright then, you'll come with me," Arche said with a warm smile, pu...

Chapter 281: The Ritual of Experience

"You don't need to be so nervous; just relax. It's not like I'm some kind of man-eating demon lord," Eriri joked lightly, addressing Imina and her companions.

Seeing Eriri's easygoing attitude, the trio visibly relaxed, though they still didn't act as comfortably as they did around Arche.

Eriri didn't mind. If not for Arche, she and the trio would likely never have crossed paths in this lifetime. Their overnight stay was mainly so that Arche could introduce them to Eriri, especial...

Chapter 45: Crushing Victory!

By now, it was deep into the night.

The moonlight and starlight intertwined, casting the empty village in a silvery glow.

Under the moon's radiance, Felina's blue-and-white hair shimmered as though draped in a veil of luminous moonlight.

The battle between Felina and Scaramouche raged on.

The overwhelming pressure Felina exerted on Scaramouche was immense.

Especially since he was entirely on the defensive, his burden grew heavier with every passing second.

Chapter 4: I Want to Ride a Shipgirl

After getting a basic understanding of the harbor's operations, Setsuna found himself at the seaside.

The salty breeze carried the scent of the ocean, mingling with the faint aroma of Richelieu's elegant perfume as she stood before him. Her blonde hair swayed gently in the wind, catching the sunlight like threads of gold. Richelieu had decided to showcase the advanced technology of Azur Lane and the power of shipgirls.

"Mr. Setsuna, we are beings born from Wisdom Cubes—true mach...

Chapter 3: Look at That Demon King, What a Loser

As the first human to set foot in the harbor—and in such an outrageous manner as traversing worlds—Setsuna became the center of attention for all the shipgirls in the Azur Lane universe.

Not only was the reception hall packed with shipgirls, but destroyer lolis crowded the doors and windows, craning their necks curiously to get a glimpse of him.

"Please enjoy."

Belfast walked over, carrying a tea set. With a slight bow, she poured tea for Setsuna and the flagships seated...

Chapter 543: I'm Not Very Fond of Eating Meat

"What do you mean 'terminated'?" Kaguya felt a growing sense of unease. "What does termination imply?"

"The system experienced a critical error, which led to significant data changes," the System Loli began babbling, her words coming out like beans being poured from a jar. "For example, the mission time adjustment in Date A Live—that wasn't my fault! I'm far too brilliant and clever to make such mistakes. You know, I used to be—"

"Stop bragging," Kaguya cut her off bl...
