{Chapter 2} The Mastermind Who Makes the Strong Tremble Without Lifting a Finger…

I love beautiful things.
 
More specifically, I love myself. Because I am beautiful.
 
You could search the whole world and likely never find a man as handsome as I. And it’s not just the face; my physical beauty is also magnificent…!
 
“But, the sword is even more beautiful.”
 
I lived my days being healed by the sight of my own reflection in the mirror. Though, to be fair, simply staring was only enough to satisfy me until I was fifteen.
 
That was the day—I encountered it. The … Read the rest

“Well, I hope Akasaki can properly face her. Unlike in the past.”
 
Murmuring thoughtfully to himself in a voice so small that no one else could hear.
 
Yuna and Rin couldn’t catch Kazamiya’s words, but the two nodded to each other again.
 
“But if it’s Akasaki-kun… he’ll definitely be fine.”
 
“If it’s Akasaki-kun, Sara-chin will definitely cheer up too!”
 
Watching Yuna and Rin speak with conviction, Kazamiya thought to himself.
 
(…Hey, Akasaki. Such good girls are thinking about you. These girls would surely blow away even your dark past. I’m not strong enough, but…)… Read the rest

“That’s true… but what I’m a little worried about is, could there be someone trying to misuse this reincarnation magic?”
 
“Misuse?”
 
“Yes,”
 
Everyone was surprised by his statement.
 
“Based on what Kasumi said, there is a strong possibility that we aren’t the only ones who have reincarnated. If that’s the case, it wouldn’t be strange for someone to appear who intends to abuse this magic called reincarnation.”
 
“……That is certainly true.”
 
“If such a person tried to utilize reincarnation magic on a larger scale, or attempted to tamper with the magic, couldn’t the effects—like … Read the rest

Her Majesty’s Command Volume 2 Chapter 1 part 4

In a slightly charred state, I start walking toward the karaoke place.
 
This was after being harassed by the Apocalypse activist old guy and having the creepy young guy blow up.
 
“This always happens when I go out with Friday. If it weren’t for Her Majesty’s orders, I would’ve died about ten times by now.”
 
When we were drinking soup at the ramen shop, or watching capybaras at the zoo, the fine folks of the Apocalypse Opposition Party attacked us just like this.
 
“There really are a lot of people who want the world to end.”… Read the rest

“Yes, we will likely end up doing those things. However, let me add one thing: this was a plan I originally had with Weltall. A way to quickly rack up achievements. That was the core of this concept.”
 
Understanding Ares’s dissatisfaction, Zenon replied with a nonchalant attitude.
 
The moment Weltall’s name was mentioned, Ares showed a faint change in expression that he likely didn’t even notice himself.
 
“Actual power and achievements don’t just fall into your lap while you’re sitting still. Even if your lineage guarantees you a certain level, you must act if you want to seize a higher … Read the rest

[Side: Kaiese-Dowin]
 

 
“Your Excellency. The [Gungnir] is ready to fire.”
 
“Good! Begin charging! Target the enemy fleet ahead!”
 
“But, Your Excellency! Our allies are still in the line of fire!”
 
“I’ve already accepted some losses as inevitable. Besides, those on the frontlines right now are expendable.”
 
On the bridge of the super-massive combat vessel [Gungnir], I was moments away from seizing a glorious future.

The Clean Hands Doctrine. In a modern society that values good faith and sincerity, someone with a “scar on their shin” (a guilty conscience) cannot receive official relief.
 
“And for those ‘outcasts,’ we, the Literature Club, serve as the final fortress… the safety net!!”
 
That was the Club President’s definition, overflowing with self-affirmation. I wondered how many people would actually be convinced by that explanation.
 
To me, it felt no different than a cult rebranding itself as a self-help seminar, but the devout Shishihara pressed her hands together as if gazing upon a Bodhisattva. “Wow, so … Read the rest

“Ah, that’s right. Master, do you have a geography book in your room?”
 
“……I do, but you aren’t going to say ‘Lend it to me?’, are you?”
 
“Why not? It’s not like it will wear out.”
 
“Sigh… I am astounded. To win against me, you ask me for help?”
 
“I’m not expecting help. I’m just saying it’s fine to lend it, aren’t I?”
 
There shouldn’t be any problem with the Contract Magic, either. After all, her goal here isn’t to defeat Hazen, but to help Major Simanto.
 
“Sigh… looking at your audacity reminds me … Read the rest

In the back of the storeroom, she found a large cage. She felt the mana reaction from there.
 
When she peered inside—a boy was clutching his knees, looking terrified.
 
“W-Who are you…?”
 
Übel scratched her cheek.
 
—This might have turned into a bit of a pain.
 
“Hmph. So, you were kidnapped.”
 
Übel said, resting her chin on her hand as she watched the boy gnaw on some bread in the living room. She had cleaned up the table earlier—though “cleaning” just meant pushing everything on top of it onto the floor.
 
After letting the boy out of the cage, … Read the rest

Chapter 3: Precious Things

“Come to think of it, isn’t this the first time I’ve walked to school with you this early, Sia?”
 
“It certainly is.”
 
This was the day after our consultation.
 
Byleth, who had absolutely no way of knowing that he had been kissed again this morning, was passing through the main gate of Ravelwarts Academy with an energetic Sia.
 
“There are still very few people commuting. Coming to school at this time isn’t bad at all.”
 
“Will you be changing your commuting time from now on? I thought the earlier hour might … Read the rest
