Dao Of Heaven

Chapter 232: Soul Damage

The moment Grayfia spoke, Liliana's longsword had already struck Riser. In barely a second, it was as if he had been simultaneously slashed by hundreds of swords; his body was covered in hundreds of deep sword wounds. In this instant, Liliana's formidable swordsmanship was on full display.

Blood poured out of Riser as if it were free-flowing water, quickly soaking his entire body in a red stain. Helpless to move or speak, he could only endure the searing pain silently, his face turning ...

Chapter 518: The Oriole Behind

"Cough, cough!"

Nakaya Motoharu lay on the ground, hacking up blood as he gasped for air, his handgun already tossed who-knows-where in the scuffle. Fortunately for him, his thick, bulky frame absorbed much of the impact. Otherwise, Kaguya's single kick might have killed him outright if he were any thinner.

"Minister of Defense, it seems you lack any regard for the value of your life," Kaguya smirked, her tone cold as she watched him struggle. "Those who court death tend to find i...

Chapter 5: The Scheme of Marcel

Every few days, Marcel would overhear someone talking about Furina's supposed lack of power.

"From an outsider's perspective, these comments were odd enough to make a lasting impression on the public. So, when we went to investigate, most people still remembered the comments clearly," Chevreuse explained.

"But due to the time that's passed and the fact that they only saw the speakers briefly, no one could recall the appearance of those spreading these remarks. So for now, we're un...

Chapter 4: The Prophecy

"Wait."

Felina was just about to leave when Neuvillette called out to her.

"Is there something else?" Felina stopped and turned back.

"Would you like me to assign members of the Marechaussee Phantom's Melusines to help investigate last night's assassination attempt?" Neuvillette asked.

At that, Felina couldn't help but smile.

The Melusines were a unique race native to Fontaine's Erinnys region. Small in stature, covered in fur, with long, rabbit-like ears, they w...

Chapter 214: Kotomi Eating Dango

"Megumi, over here!" Kotomi , who had stepped into the train car first, quickly spotted a quiet seat. When she took the train alone, she preferred seats toward the back of the car.

They tended to be more peaceful since most people preferred the middle seats, closer to the doors, for easier boarding and alighting. Missing a stop could mean an enormous hassle for busy commuters, who'd rather not risk being late and having to explain things to their supervisors.

But when she wasn't i...

Chapter 213: The Tastiest Part Is You

Without any dreams, Kotomi woke up to find it was already the next morning.

Still half-asleep, she squinted her drowsy eyes open and fought the urge to fall back asleep just long enough to turn off her phone alarm.

"So tired…"

Kotomi mumbled, about to drift off again.

Riiiing!

Her phone rang, jolting her slightly awake from her sleepy daze.

Without even checking who was calling, she groggily pressed the answer button.

"Hello…"

Her v...

Chapter 302: The Beginning of the Legion's Ongoing Expeditions

"Queen!"

Seeing Selene in her ceremonial attire entering the palace corridor, Alyssa cried out in delight, abandoning her bowl as she ran towards her.

Yet as the word escaped her lips, Alyssa instantly regretted it. She thought, Why do I always remember, and then reflexively get it wrong…

But by the time Alyssa's mind caught up with her reflexes, her body had already reached Selene, grabbing her arm and snuggling against her affectionately.

Unusually, Selene...

Chapter 301: The Journey ‘Home’

In the world of Black Bullet, within Tokyo's Government Office, Selene stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows of what was once the Tokyo governor's office. Gazing lazily at the sunlight outside, her expression was particularly relaxed.

As the first human city to be conquered by the Astartes First Legion in this world, Tokyo's reconstruction had only just begun and was still far from resembling its pre-war state. Yet as the Empire's new center of governance and the First Legion's military...

Chapter 231: Asia

The following day, Eriri let Rias and the others go to class as usual while she strolled around Kuoh Town with Scarlet and Ophis, with Aoi Kujo and Lilliana close behind.

The group of five walking down the street drew quite a bit of attention, with nearly everyone turning to look. Eriri and her group were unfazed. This sort of attention was something she was used to whenever they went out in the Saekano World, so she no longer minded the passersby's stares.

Scarlet and Ophis, mean...

Chapter 517: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada

After Origami returned to her room, Kaguya immediately sat up and lifted the blanket, only to find Tohka Yatogami still clinging closely to her, lightly licking with her small tongue and holding her waist tightly. Sensing Kaguya's gaze, Tohka looked up and smiled mischievously, as if she found this amusing.

Kaguya's face twitched, a vein pulsing on her forehead, and she reached out to give Tohka's head a light flick. It seemed Tohka thought of this as some kind of game.

Well, if i...

Chapter 300: The Legion’s Assigned Conquest World

This was a world in despair—a world where the Gastrea mutants prevailed, and humanity suffered defeat.

Though humans had managed to wipe out Stage V Gastrea, namely Taurus and Virgo of the Zodiac, the victories came at tremendous costs. Humanity had only barely managed to survive amidst waves of Gastrea attacks, losing vast tracts of land.

Before, the humans who huddled within the safety of the monolithic barriers had grimly believed that this situation would continue indefinite...

Chapter 299: Alyssa—The Husky Among Wolves

"Empress... Her Majesty?"

Hearing the answer from the middle-aged Imperial Guard, the group of "Cursed Children" trailing behind him tilted their heads up, mumbling in a daze. Admiring beautiful things, things that shine—perhaps this is an innate trait in women.

Even for these young girls, infected with Gastrea Virus DNA as "Cursed Children," there was no exception. In the past, within the Black Bullet world, stationed in outer Tokyo Area beyond the Monolith Walls, they didn't s...

Chapter 212: Want a Goodnight Kiss?

Megumi Kato looked at Kotomi curiously. Even though Kotomi practically had the words "something on my mind" written on her face, she was still putting on a tough act, insisting that everything was fine. Even if Megumi wanted to believe her, she simply couldn't.

Thinking about it, Megumi couldn't help but chuckle. Kotomi's behavior—clearly having something to ask but pretending she didn't—was so endearingly cute, as though she was wrapped up in all sorts of little thoughts.

Sti...

Chapter 211: Meeting Each Other’s Parents

When Aimi returned to the table, the sukiyaki pot had just been served. The beef and vegetables simmering in the broth filled the air with a rich aroma, making it instantly mouth-watering.

"Aimi, where were you all this time? Are you feeling okay?" Kotomi asked with concern when she saw Aimi return.

If this had been before, after seeing Kotomi's "couple's photo" with Iroha Isshiki, Aimi probably would have sulked like a child, huffing that she didn't need anyone's concern. That ba...

Chapter 230: Ophis

It turns out, those fanfiction novels from her past life made a lot of assumptions about Great Red.

Who decided that a mighty, dignified dragon god in her true form would automatically turn into a fiery, voluptuous lady when she took human form?

Now renamed "Scarlet" by Eriri, Great Red struggled in Eriri's arms for a moment. When she found she couldn't break free, she finally gave up resisting.

"Release me. The Dimensional Gap is my home. I will not leave it," Scarlet said ...

Chapter 3: The Approaching Conspiracy

"Hmph!"

Felina, dressed in cute pajamas, leaned against the headboard and gave a cold snort.

Sending a few mortals without Visions to assassinate the Hydro Archon in her own domain? No rational person would think of such a thing.

She had initially been worried about the enemy lurking in the shadows, but when the assassins used the Primordial Seawater water to dissolve right in front of her, she began to understand.

From the mastermind's perspective, if the assassinatio...

Chapter 2: The Perplexing Assassination

"Felina, how's the cake?"

On the streets of Fontaine, Furina asked in her heart.

"The cake and tea are fantastic! This must be your favorite food, right?"

"Thank you for sharing it with me. I'm so glad the first thing I got to eat after coming into this world was something so wonderful!"

"Right?~"

Furina's eyes curved into little crescents; there was nothing more beautiful than when someone you care about loves the things you love.

"I'm so glad you like it....

Chapter 1: I Will Protect Your happiness

Fontaine, Palais Mermonia

Dawn broke on a new day.

It was now the 496th year of Furina's role as the Hydro Archon.

According to the storyline, after nearly 500 years of prolonged mental strain combined with the burden of embodying the Hydro Archon with no one to confide in, Furina's mental state should theoretically be at its worst.

Yet here she was, alone in her room and beaming with happiness.

Her relaxed posture spoke volumes: she was genuinely at ease and con...

Chapter 516: Misunderstood

In the kitchen, nothing particularly entertaining was happening, and Kaguya certainly wasn't up to anything outrageous; she was simply satisfying a minor urge to cook. But what followed was a bit of a headache.

There was a problem of limited room space. Origami Tobiichi and Tohka Yatogami, while not exactly enemies, didn't get along very well. Especially regarding Kaguya, neither was willing to give an inch, so it was essentially impossible to have them share a room.

As for Natsum...

Chapter 210: An Unfriendly Chance Encounter

When it comes to the "Tako-nee's Sukiyaki Restaurant" (Tako-nee: Octupus Sister) and "Salmon Madam Sushi Restaurant," the naming styles alone make it obvious that the two places must be related. On top of that, their employee costumes are bizarrely similar.

In the Tako-nee's Sukiyaki, the waitresses wear octopus hats. And if you thought that was wild enough, just step into the neighboring Salmon Madam Sushi.

The moment you open the door, you'll see a crowd of servers clad in salmo...

Chapter 298: The Selection Begins

Clap, clap…

"Well, I have given this matter due thought… We'll set aside the meeting for now. The fine food and wine are all here, and we can't waste them, so please, everyone, help yourselves."

With a light clap on the table, Selene drew the attention of those deep in thought. She lifted a glass and spoke.

After speaking, Selene tilted her glass slightly, signaling the start of the banquet, then downed the champagne that filled about a quarter of her glass.

Chapter 229: Rias Takes Off

Hachiman's younger sister, Komachi Hikigaya, looked at Eriri with a sweet smile, her eyes squinting into little crescent moons. Her slightly round face beamed with a youthful energy. And so, under her eager gaze, Eriri introduced herself once more.

"So you're Komachi! What a cute name. I'm Eriri Spencer Sawamura."

"Oh wow! Eriri-neesan, are you mixed? People always say mixed-race people are super pretty, and I guess it's really true!"

Komachi then looked over to see Akino an...

Chapter 515: Persecution Complex

In truth, Natsumi was indeed a Spirit—the seventh among the ten Spirits. However, she had absolutely no confidence in her original appearance, even finding others' compliments utterly irrational. She held an intensely pessimistic and negative outlook, often linking others' praise to negative motives.

For those who had seen her true face, she would stop at nothing to socially ruin them, engaging in schemes to ensure they were despised by others—an outlook that had made her dangerous....

Chapter 297: Major Changes in the Empire’s Military

Tap-tap-tap

"She really is adorable…" Watching Alyssa's spirited, near-bouncing figure as she scampered off, Selene murmured with a smile.

"Indeed, little Alyssa… she is quite adorable," Sebas replied, pinching the bridge of his nose with a fond smile.

Was it really that easy to fool her? Sebas hadn't even needed the impromptu excuses he'd come up with to smooth things over. This girl—who had once stood her ground against him when she was first born—now seem...

Chapter 209: A Wall Covered in Couple Photos

"Secret?"

Kotomi tilted her head in confusion. Why would going to a restaurant need to be kept a secret?

"Aimi, do you know where we're going to eat?" she asked Aimi.

Aimi shook her head, indicating she didn't know either.

As they drove along, Kotomi began to feel that the direction and streets looked somewhat familiar, though she couldn't immediately place them.

Akina, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, turned to Kaneyoshi, who was driving.

"I he...

Chapter 228: Cute and Quiet

After arranging for Saeko Busujima and Esdeath, Eriri didn't linger in the Akame ga Kill world.

When she returned to the Oregairu world, Akino and the others were still waiting for her in the apartment, and the group now included Haruno.

Upon reuniting with Haruno, Eriri was warmly and sincerely thanked. At this point, Eriri was undoubtedly the greatest benefactor to the Yukinoshita family.

That evening, Mrs. Yukinoshita even held a small apprecia...

Chapter 514: A Heart's Wish

"What are you doing?"

The coolness on her lower body made the young girl panic instantly; she had never encountered a situation like this before.

"What do you think?" Kaguya's face beamed with a bright smile as she leaned down and said, "I told you that was your last chance. Since you didn't appreciate it, I'm afraid you'll have to face punishment now."

Although Kaguya wore a radiant smile, to the girl, it looked chillingly sinister, especially when considering the overwhelm...

Chapter 296: My Gift…?

After personally micro-managing the Holy Grail War, Selene's main consciousness returned. She strolled to the garden terrace outside her chamber, dressed in her ceremonial attire, and leaned against the marble balustrade a thousand meters above ground.

Night had fallen, the stars glittered brightly. The evening breeze drifted through the colossal structures across the skyline, where various lights illuminated the deep black of night. In Selene's line of sight, rows of lights stretched i...

Chapter 208: Kotomi Still Unaware of the Issue

The moment the words left her lips, Shizuka Hiratsuka regretted it deeply, feeling a sudden urge to give herself a few good smacks. Watching Kotomi about to turn and leave, she had impulsively called out without thinking.

Sure, Kotomi was stunningly cute, the very embodiment of her type—but she was her student. Even worse, her female student! Just picturing herself taking Kotomi home to meet her mother and announcing her as her partner was terrifying. Shizuka's mother wanted her to fi...

Chapter 227: Return to the Akame ga Kill World

"Well, there's nothing much left to do in this world. It's about time we take our leave," Eriri said, lounging comfortably against Shizuka Marikawa's shoulder as she addressed Haruno and the others.

Eriri's announcement brought an unmistakable glimmer of excitement to Kei Karuizawa's face. It had been three days since her arrival in this world, and each day she'd been consumed by worry for her family. Yukino also visibly relaxed, although she wasn't plagued by the same concerns as Kei; ...
