**Chapter 620: Peace** “……It’s back to normal.” When I looked into the attached mirror, my left eye was neither the Empty Void nor the Magic Eye, but had returned to the crimson eye of the Demon King. Good grief, I really wish people would stop performing transplants by jamming their bare hands into someone else. […]
**Chapter 619: A Gray Transaction** The 20th of the Month of New Sun. That was the day I ran into that bastard Kurono at the Avalon intersection. Because that idiot Rin just had to wander out into the open, Kurono, of all people, discovered her presence. Honestly, it was my own fault for being careless. […]
Chapter 617: Kurono and Lily *Thump-thump.* Even though it has been completely separated from inside my body, my heart continues to beat. Ordinarily, it would stop the moment it was gouged out, but for this moment, I can at least be grateful to those who modified my body to a superhuman level. It is precisely […]
### Chapter 618: The End of the Trial When I next woke up, I was in the detestable hall of the Black Throne. “I’ve been waiting for you to come.” “Mia…” I’m the one who should be saying that. She says it as if I had come of my own volition, but I had already […]
### Chapter 739: 22-07 The Queen Ant The Giga-Ants had closed the distance to just five meters from Philip and his automaton, Dona. “Is this the end…?” Philip closed his eyes in resignation. Just then, he felt a light so dazzling it pierced through his closed eyelids. When he opened them, he saw the Giga-Ant […]
### Chapter 737: 22-05 Super-Giant Ants *Contains graphic/cruel imagery.* What crawled out of the ruins were gigantic insects—if you looked closely, they were ants. And they were swarming out in droves. “Mega-Ants!?” They resembled a species of monster rarely seen in mines called “Mega-Ants.” However, the scale was off by an order of magnitude. A […]
### Chapter 738: 22-06 Kunlun 2 Deployed “A request for emergency assistance… you say?” Princess Lieschen, who had just descended from the cabin, overheard the news. “Whatever has happened?” The messenger knight hesitated for a moment, but since the information wasn’t confidential to the Princess, he decided to report it on the spot. “Y-Yes. At […]
### Chapter 736: 22-04 Raid Hearing that Jin was the witness, Trist Clarot’s face twisted for the first time. “Hmm, I see. Even so, if he is not here, it cannot be helped. And testimony alone isn’t quite…” Still, he didn’t drop his insolent attitude, weaving his words to keep taunting Paul Raid. “If you […]
Chapter 225: The Test of the Celestial (2) A few hours ago, Hyun realized that raising Ain’s Alignment wasn’t going to be an easy task. According to his game knowledge, an Alignment in the single digits should have shifted easily, but for some unknown reason, Ain’s Alignment remained completely immovable. ‘She isn’t sleeping, is she…?’ […]
Chapter 224: The Test of the Celestial (1) It had been nine months since Asrian opened its servers. During that time, a massive tectonic shift took place across the gaming industry. As Asrian’s real-world influence grew stronger by the day, official streams and broadcasts dedicated to the game naturally began sprouting up like mushrooms after […]
Chapter 221: Preparing to Head to the Heavens (1) ‘I need to check the situation with the Heavens-aligned players.’ Hyun logged onto the internet and opened the Heavens board on a community site he frequented. Since the community’s interest was always focused on top-tier players, finding the information he wanted was far from difficult. ‘If […]
Chapter 220: Louise’s Circumstances (2) Hyun pressed Louise with a few more questions. 「So they haven’t realized you’re Darkness?」 「…Probably?」 「Makes sense.」 Come to think of it, Louise’s true self had only been exposed to the world twice. The first was in Iluna as the Priestess. The second was in the Land of Darkness, as […]
Chapter 219: Louise’s Circumstances (1) “Hyun…” Louise offered him an awkward smile. Darkness could effortlessly recognize its own shadow, no matter what form it took. “I mean… as much as you missed me, did you really have to alter your appearance to match mine…?” This was Louise’s first time witnessing Possession. Since all she knew […]
Chapter 218: The Woman in Sunglasses (4) Hyun outlined his plan to Ain. They still didn’t know the full extent of Macaron’s capabilities, but one thing was certain: her specs were far beyond those of any ordinary player. If his hunch was right, a two-on-one ambush was their safest bet. ‘This is it… We can’t […]
### Chapter 735: 22-03 Contact January 24th, Shouro Empire. “‘Wood-paper,’ you say?” “Yes. Apparently, it is made using tree bark.” “How intriguing. It’s thinner and lighter than parchment, isn’t it?” “That is what is written here.” In the Shouro Empire, the Empress and the Chancellor were reviewing the latest intelligence from the first advance party, […]
### Chapter 733: 22-01 New Type Airship Hourai Island lies in the middle of the ocean, east of the Lauren Continent, where many humans dwell. With the Tropic of Cancer passing directly overhead, its climate is near-subtropical. This is the true base of operations for Jin Nidou, a Magicraft Meister and the lord of Kunlun […]
### Chapter 734: 22-02 A New Discovery “Oh, this is comfortable.” “Mm, amazing. It’s fast and it doesn’t sway.” After several test flights and fine-tuning, Jin, Elsa, and Reiko boarded *Kunlun 2* to enjoy a leisurely aerial stroll. “…With this kind of performance, I’m convinced. But I wish you’d told me first,” Elsa said, sounding […]
### Chapter 732: 21-44 Side Story 40 – Marcia and… January 21st. With the recent turmoil behind them and a moment to breathe, Jin decided to visit Port Rock, accompanied by Elsa and Reiko. Since he wasn’t making an official state visit, they traveled using the Warp Gate located in the sea cave. “Ah, the […]
Chapter 616: Kurono vs. Lily (5) “——*Life Drain*.” A forbidden art that uproots life force from everything it touches. It was Lily’s ultimate trump card—a means to transform for emergencies, back when she did not yet possess the *Queen Beryl*. I heard that she had used it only twice before: once during the battle against […]
Chapter 615: Kurono VS Lily (4) “Kuronagi!” Dashing beneath the rain of *Lux Sagitta*, I unleashed a single strike of martial art. With the martial art of *Kubikiri*, I could cleave through Lily’s barrier. However, by the time I delivered the blow, she was no longer there. A barrier was, after all, merely a deployed […]
## Chapter 217: The Woman in Sunglasses (3) 「What was that just now?!」 「No time to explain in detail. If my theory is correct, we need to hurry as fast as we can.」 *BOOM!* Stack after stack of *Potential Explosion* set to Agility accumulated across Ain’s body. They kept combat with occasional mob encounters to […]
## Chapter 216: The Woman in Sunglasses (2) On the 23rd floor… Papy’s steps, originally heading toward the surface world, came to a sudden halt. He quietly closed his eyes before speaking up. “Holy Maiden-nim, it would be best if we returned to the hideout.” “Hmm…? For what reason?” “The presence approaching this […]
## Chapter 215: The Woman in Sunglasses (1) “…” At the cold, detached statement, Drawer and Reward’s expressions froze completely solid. 「I knew it! It’s just like those forum posts said! Hyun-sam had zero intention of honoring his word!」 「Then are we… getting executed right here?」 “Ah, right. Almost forgot.” […]
## Chapter 214: Like Lovers Do (3) *‘Mob-herding definitely makes the clear so much smoother.’* [Time Remaining: 102 seconds] [Enemies Defeated: 381/500] The instant Hyun wiped out a massive cluster of stone sentinels in one clean sweep, Drawer secured a brief, precious breathing window. Taking advantage of the frame, he threw a quick glance across […]
## Chapter 213: Like Lovers Do (2) As they traversed the 16th tier, crossed into the 17th, and finally descended to the 18th floor, Ain clearly picked up on the fact that Hyun was deliberately reining in their pace. 「Hyun-nim, that’s surprisingly unlike you.」 「What is?」 「You’re actively dragging your feet, aren’t you? So those […]
Chapter 612: Kurono VS Lily (1) “——Kurono!!” “Sorry to keep you waiting.” Emitting a glittering red brilliance, Lily lightly flew down from the top of the giant Ferris wheel, landing right before the main gate of the chalk-white castle where I had emerged. The shock written across her face was proof that the decoy plan […]
## Chapter 611: Rescue Operation Initially, it was not me who faced Lily head-on in the main gate garden, but Miria. If you wear the helmet along with it, the *Tyrant’s Armor Maximilian* is a piece of full-body armor that completely conceals the body from the top of the head to the tips of the […]
### Chapter 731: 21-43 Side Story 39 – In the Kingdom of Celuroa One day in the Kingdom of Celuroa. “What? You say they are claiming ‘Kunlun Island’?” “Yes, Your Majesty.” King Richard Valois de Celuroa let out a snort of derision. “Hmph. They want to claim ownership of some insignificant, remote rock? Fine, grant […]
Chapter 730: 21-42 The Aftermath… 21: Maritime Transport and Ruins Arc (Year 3457–3458) By the time Fritz-dono and his men managed to round up their panicked, scattered horses, Deus Ex Machina and Rei were nowhere to be found. “Machina… Just who on earth are you?” By the time the shaken expedition party finally regained a […]
Chapter 729: 21-41 At Wit’s End 21: Maritime Transport and Ruins Arc (Year 3457–3458) One of the burning imitations collapsed into the dirt. Seeing their first actual breakthrough, the knights felt a fragile spark of morale return to their ranks. However, the three subsequent Flame Balls unleashed by the mages failed to track the blistering […]
Chapter 728: 21-40 The Imitations 21: Maritime Transport and Ruins Arc (Year 3457–3458) January 15th, 10:00 AM. “My Lord, an emergency situation has arisen.” Jin looked up from his workbench at the sound of Laokun’s voice echoing through the workshop. Reinhardt and Elsa, who had been staying over, were also present and sharpened their focus […]
Chapter 727: 21-39 Fritz’s Valiant Stand Note: This chapter contains significant depictions of blood. The defining traits of Rock Wolves were their blistering speed and seamless coordination as a pack. Against such agile opponents, the lumbering Goliath was not particularly effective. “They fear fire! Who here can use fire-attribute magic?” Fritz-dono bellowed, scanning the perimeter. […]
21: Maritime Transport and Ruins Arc (Year 3457–3458) Chapter 726: 21-38 A Milestone January 14th. Jin, Reinhardt, and Elsa had formal audience at the Shouro Imperial Palace. Their purpose was to finalize the official reports of their long expedition and settle the remaining diplomatic affairs. The final piece of business, of course, was securing a […]
21: Maritime Transport and Ruins Arc (Year 3457–3458) Chapter 725: 21-37 What Lies Within The morning of the 14th dawned with an urgent crisis hanging over them: what to do with the storage vessels? The joint investigation task force gathered for an emergency meeting. Representing the Klein Kingdom were Captain Bernardo-dono and Vice-Captain Gloria-san. The […]
Chapter 80: Chasing After You There were two months and a little over left until the “Phantom Night Sacred Festival.” The journey to the Holy Capital, Sasfect, was five days away. However, those five days were only if the journey proceeded along the shortest route without a hitch; in reality, it often took a bit […]
Chapter 79: Two People Waiting for Fate We managed to gather the stray horses and headed toward the Holy Capital, Sasfect. The bandit group we had tangled with was apparently a criminal organization recently wanted in this region. Because they rode horses with high mobility, they had been running around various places, leaving the Kenneth […]
Chapter 78: New and Old A group of figures, likely bandits, galloped their horses toward our slightly sunken campsite. It seemed they were running toward us, guided by the light of our bonfire roaring beside a massive boulder. Father Dordon, knowing it was too late to hide, crushed the swirling firewood under his feet. I […]
Chapter 77: A Dangle-Ball Journey The chaotic night was not yet over. After escaping the city of Sateru, we set up camp to let the horses rest. I still didn’t quite understand what was happening, but I knew the winds had changed significantly compared to before I met Father Dordon. Since leaving the city, I […]
Chapter 76: The Board Shifts Although Oakley’s exposure as a Heretic had been narrowly avoided, the fundamental crisis of his life being in danger remained. As long as Pomett was here, the risk of his identity being revealed was constant, and as long as Father Dordon was present, his life was directly at risk. Alex’s […]
Chapter 75: A Flickering Tongue-Lashing Battle Confirming that the wound on his hand had closed, Father Dordon sat in a chair. The four people sitting around the circular table began the process of verifying information to organize the current situation. (Let’s organize the situation. First, the perverted priest tried to attack Oakley-senpai, and Senpai managed […]
Chapter 74: The Mixed Battle Oakley was in a state of intense confusion. This was due to the words Father Dordon had blurted out in the midst of his deductions: “You’re not Oakley. You were the Heretic Oakley, weren’t you?” He didn’t know his true identity, nor did he know that he was the trigger […]
Chapter 73: Life-or-Death Situation × 5 Marietta returned to the city of Satel, her body completely exhausted from working on the maintenance of the mountain path that had been blocked by a landslide. As she aimed to become an executive of the Orthodox to annihilate the Heretics, she took on every task available to solidify […]
724 21–35 The Botsfa Ruins Mid-afternoon, January 12. “We can see it! It’s a huge golem!” A report came into the Egerea Kingdom survey team from a scouting hot-air balloon that had gone ahead. The location was Tsubou Village, in the former Leonard Kingdom. “Oh! Is that Egerea’s hot-air balloon?” The Klein Kingdom survey team […]
725 21–36 What They Found Since Goliath could not enter the mine tunnel, all work inside had to be done by the team members. However, the collapse was mainly near the entrance. Deeper inside the tunnel, rocks were scattered, but there were still gaps wide enough for one person to pass through. “It’s tight… but […]
722 21-33 A Confiscation Filled With Mysteries “What… what an unbelievable number…!” “Is this… perhaps the military force the Leonard Kingdom once possessed…?” “Amazing! Amazing! Amazing!” Jade Nefroy had lost all composure, darting between the rows of golems like an excited child. “Hey—don’t get distracted by the golems. Look over there.” A soldier pointed toward the […]
723 21-34 A Complicated Situation After departing the Klein Kingdom, Jin and his group landed before Nidou Castle in Kaina Village, touching down on a blanket of snow. “Wow—snow! How rare!” Reinhardt, who had seldom seen snowy scenery, was visibly excited. Jin found Reinhardt’s reaction surprising. “That’s unexpected.” Elsa gently explained. “The Shouro Empire is inland, […]
Sorry for the error, I was reuploading from 705 21-32 Sol Drake Ruins On the morning of January 9th, Jin, Reinhardt, Elsa, and Reiko were invited to the Magical Research Laboratory housed within the Outer Palace—an institution led by the Minister of Magic, Kerihidore, and the foremost research facility in the Kingdom of Egelea. “Here, this […]
