OPKOTW: Chapter 258: CP-X’s Ace Squad!?

In the City of Water 7, Lucci and his team had been working for some time, finally cleaning up the traces left by Tom. From now on, any information about the Ancient Weapon Pluton would be considered a top secret known only to select members of CP-X.

During their time investigating rumors about the Ancient Weapon, Blueno had opened a bar in Water 7 as a cover. Now, the team had gathered there for a well-deserved break.

Originally, Lucci was the only one from CP-9 who had been tr...

MHATG: Chapter 254: Fighting?

The Event, which the Kaminari family had spent days preparing for, had finally come to an end. However, the ripple effects of the event were only just beginning.

Not that Kaminari needed to worry about any of that, he only cared that his company was thriving.

To be honest, watching his business flourish under his own guidance while still enjoying the perks of being a carefree rich kid felt pretty great. If you don't believe it, try it for yourself!

Now that all the event-...

SWR: Chapter 484: Gao, don’t you feel even a little guilty?

"Do you have any idea how I feel right now?"

After the match, in an office at São Paulo Stadium, Mourinho sat across from Gao Shen, looking at him with resentment.

If he hadn't seen Gao Shen pull out a box of expensive wine, each bottle worth a small fortune and offer them to him as a gift, he would have been even more annoyed.

For the sake of this fine wine, I'll tolerate this!

Even so, his tone still carried deep frustration. After all, he had just lost the matc...

SCIAW: Chapter 41: The Opportunity to Make a Fortune Has Arrived

The sudden increase in her food expenses was a serious problem for Ran.

After all, having lived frugally for more than a decade, she had developed strong habits of thrift and budgeting.

But her stomach didn't care about financial concerns. When hunger struck, it showed no mercy.

So, she needed to consider whether she should start working on weekends.

She preferred earning her own money rather than relying on others to cover her meals.

...

SCIAW: Chapter 40: Moving Out of the Mouri Household

Ran moved out smoothly.

This time, it wasn't just a temporary escape, she had no intention of returning.

She couldn't accept Shinichi's secrecy, nor could she accept his "selfishness" toward her.

Even though she wouldn't expose his secret, she couldn't bear to live under the same roof as him.

"Ran, feel free to pick any room you like."

"Okay… Thanks, Mom."

"There's no need to thank me, sweetheart."

As...

SCIAW: Chapter 39: Unacceptable

"Dad…"

Ran who had been covering her mouth, her body trembling slightly, finally spoke.

"This child can stay, but… I can't."

"!"

The three adults in the room—Kogoro, Yukiko, and Yusaku were all caught off guard.

Ran crouched down slightly and removed the child's glasses.

"He really does look just like Shinichi when he was little."

Then, she looked up at her father, her voice trembling.

"Dad, I… I don't want to see this child righ...

SCIAW: Chapter 38: Entrusting an Orphan

The next morning, just as Ran was preparing to leave for school, the Mouri family received three unexpected guests.

The Kudo couple, their faces lined with sorrow, stood at the door. With them was a young boy, no older than seven or eight, wearing glasses.

Coming downstairs from the third floor, Ran froze when she saw them.

"Aunt Yukiko, Uncle Yusaku?"

"Aren't you both overseas? Why did you come back so suddenly?"

"Ah…"

...

SCIAW: Chapter 37: Grandpa’s Curiosity

"Ugh…"

Nagi bit her lip tightly as she stared at the diary.

Short stature, fiery temper, and, well, her unimpressive figure—those words stung deeply.

Glancing down at her own body, which didn't even obscure the view of her toes, her anger only grew.

"There's still room for growth. Definitely. No question about it," she muttered to herself.

Unconsciously, she thought about her mother.

Her mother didn't seem to ha...

SCIAW: Chapter 36: No Loopholes to Exploit

After seeing off the guests, Kaguya and Hayasaka, Ren sat down and began his daily diary.

[Today was full of surprises. The diary holders I had been observing finally revealed themselves.]

[I originally thought they wouldn't take the same straightforward approach I did, but they used the most direct and revealing method possible.]

[Shinomiya Kaguya. Hayasaka Ai.]

[VIP students at Shuchiin Academy and part of the prestigious Shinomiya family....

SCIAW: Chapter 35: We Are Mutually Beneficial

"It's really hard for me to imagine Fujiwara sitting in that position," Kaguya said, her tone filled with disbelief.

To her, Fujiwara's defining characteristic was "chaos."

It was nearly impossible to predict her thought process. No matter the situation, Fujiwara's unpredictable behavior always threw everyone off balance.

"But since you transferred here, do you think she'll follow you?"

"I don't know."

"Then let me rephrase. If ...

SCIAW: Chapter 34: The Fairy Tale Within the Story Unfolds

In truth, the story of Kaguya. and Shirogane Miyuki is a good one, especially the early parts. The back-and-forth testing and battle of wits between the protagonists make for a highly entertaining dynamic.

Ren remembered enjoying the initial chapters immensely when he first read them.

However, since the real Kaguya had already made her decision, there was no need to dwell on the topic further.

He chose his words carefully.

"Amamiya!"

Hayasaka suddenly raised...

SCIAW: Chapter 33: Stories Are Just Stories

It was after school.

Ren walked home, following his usual routine.

But just as he arrived at his apartment building, a luxury car pulled up and parked out front.

Two people stepped out.

It wasn't a surprise—they weren't strangers, after all.

Given that they had recently transferred to Teitan High School, their visit here was expected. Their purpose for coming today was obvious.

"Good evening, Amamiya san."

<...

SCIAW: Chapter 32: Date Invitation

(5/5)

"Shinomiya!"

Sonoko approached Kaguya with a loud voice that immediately drowned out all other chatter in the classroom.

"Why did you suddenly transfer to Teitan?"

"Why? Am I not allowed to transfer here, or does Teitan High School fall under the Suzuki family's domain?"

"Tsk, I never said anything like that."

Although the Suzuki family's industry was deeply tied to education, Teitan High School wasn't part of...

SCIAW: Chapter 31: Let’s Get to Know Each Other

(4/5)

Sitting in the back row of the classroom, Ren paused slightly as he watched the two transfer students introduce themselves to the class.

"Shinomiya Kaguya… Hayasaka Ai…"

"I didn't expect them to show up so soon."

He had expected one of the diary holders to eventually make an appearance.

But to directly transfer into his school?

This was too blatant.

Ren had thought the diary holders would appr...

SCIAW: Chapter 30: Leave and Transfer

(3/5)

In the Student Council Office of Shuchiin Academy,

As the president of the Student Council, Shirogane Miyuki subconsciously glanced at the seat that belonged to the vice president, Shinomiya Kaguya.

"Hmm…"

The slightly irritated mood caused him to tap his fingers against the table without realizing it.

"President, what's wrong today? You seem… agitated," asked Ishigami Yu, who was working on the student council's proje...

(2/5)

"!"

Nao, seated on the sofa, almost let her shock show at this moment.

"This… this is going to completely crush Master Oko's dignity underfoot," she thought.

When she saw Oko at the door, she already knew that Miss Kaguya wasn't going to let things end easily this time.

But seeing this unfold now, she realized how naïve her earlier thoughts were.

Miss Kaguya didn't just want to win, she wanted to utterly tr...

Chapter 28: I Don’t Like It

(1/5)

Hayasaka Nao knew well what was happening within the Shinomiya family.

She had been pondering who the mastermind was, someone capable of rallying so many external forces to collectively resist the Shinomiya family.

And the final answer turned out to be Miss Kaguya.

This was truly unexpected.

Nao bowed slightly.

"Master Oko i...

SCIAW: Chapter 27: The Young Master Who Came to the Door

[Shinichi's situation is beyond my understanding.]

[It seems that after I left, the people who went to Tropical Land because of me contacted the police in advance and sent the unconscious Shinichi to the hospital.]

[Perhaps because Shinichi was comatose, the hospital needed to find his family. So, they used the phone in Shinichi's clothes to contact his parents, even calling back Kudo Yusaku and Kudo Yukiko, who were abroad.]

[This is truly a surprise.]

[But what s...

SCIAW: Chapter 26: Faking Death and Escape

At noon, some students brought their own lunch, while others headed to the student cafeteria.

Ren was among those who went to the cafeteria.

A simple meal with a few dishes was considered his lunch.

Poor students couldn't afford extravagance.

As soon as he sat down, he overheard a conversation from the next table.

"It seems that Kudo's parents came to school today."

"Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo? Why are they back?"<...

SCIAW: Chapter 25: Officially Embarking on the Road to Sequence

"What a surprise."

After completing today's diary entry, Ren drew his lottery reward.

The content of today's diary wasn't particularly rich, nor did it have any significant impact on other diary holders, yet the reward still came through.

[Lord of Mysteries]

[Obtained Sequence 9: Seer Potion]

A dark blue, slightly sticky liquid appeared in a test tube, about as thick as two finger joints.

"It seems as long as I care...

SCIAW: Chapter 24: Giving Up Everything to Stay

"Heh~ Given my current situation, Dad, do you really think running away would make me safe?"

Shinichi let out a bitter laugh.

"The poison is highly suspicious."

"How can a drug supposedly meant to kill someone shrink their body instead? I doubt it's even a poison in the traditional sense."

"I suspect its so-called poisonous effect is just an unintended side effect."

"And once the truth about this drug is exposed, and people find...

SCIAW: Chapter 23: Why Not Persuade Them to Break Up?

"Yesterday, Kaguya went to Tropical Land ?"

This news left the Suzuki couple momentarily stunned.

"Yes," Sonoko confirmed.

"I was wondering why someone like her, a proper young lady who usually spends her weekends practicing etiquette and archery, would suddenly decide to go to an amusement park."

"She said it was to relax, but I think she was acting strange."

"Indeed, she's acting strange," Shiro agreed.

Kaguya's t...

SCIAW: Chapter 22: Hidden Interests

"I know about Mikado Sanzenin's granddaughter, but this Saginomiya... is her family really that mysterious?"

"Yes, very mysterious," Shiro replied firmly, backing his statement with evidence.

"Saginomiya is a shrine maiden family. Historically, their main business revolved around shrine-related work—specifically, exorcisms."

"Shiro, are you sure you're thinking straight?"

"I came to this conclusion after a lot of research. Don't make it so...

SCIAW: Chapter 21: Undercurrents Underwater

"Father, is there no way to stop Mikado Sanzenin?"

"That madman won't stop unless he gets what he wants."

"Right now, the Shinomiya family is nothing more than meat on the chopping block. Unless you kneel and beg Mikado Sanzenin for mercy, surrendering completely to his arrangements, the Shinomiya family will only face destruction."

Gan'an knew Mikado's character far too well.

If someone dared to provoke him, there was only one path forward:...

SCIAW: Chapter 20: Crushing

[One Piece]

[Ingredients obtained: Sea King Meat]

[Sea King Meat: The meat of massive creatures living in the ocean. Highly nutritious. Long-term consumption enhances physical fitness.]

Staring at the massive piece of meat that now cluttered her room, Kaguya was left speechless.

"Is this really from a large ocean creature? It doesn't seem like anything from Earth."

From the start, she had assumed "large" meant the Earthly defini...

SCIAW: Chapter 19: Serialized Detective Stories

[There's nothing special to do on the weekend, and I don't have work today, so I can stay home and watch videos online.]

[But staying at home all day is boring, so I went out for a walk.]

[I didn't expect to run into a kidnapper during a casual outing.]

[Beika City is truly a magical place. It feels like you can encounter criminals no matter where you go.]

[After living here for over ten years, I should be used to it by now.]

[I...

SCIAW: Chapter 18: Three Days, Change of Heir

"A favour?"

In a private villa on a remote island, Mikado Sanzenin was genuinely surprised. His granddaughter, Nagi, who rarely sought assistance, was now asking him for help.

His surprise quickly gave way to a pleased smile.

"Go on, it's rare for you to need something from me today."

Since it was unusual for his granddaughter to make a request, Mikado decided to take her seriously and not tease her with his usual jokes.

"It's l...

SCIAW: Chapter 17: The Two Young Ladies Join Forces

"It's more of mutual cooperation than a confrontation."

"Although we are different individuals, we share the same fate."

Kaguya did not object to this.

Indeed, they did share the same fate.

Since Nagi had the diary as well, Kaguya was certain that she too had received the power granted by it.

Nagi propped her chin up with both hands and said, "Your status within the Shinomiya family doesn't seem very good, does it?"

SCIAW: Chapter 16: Shinomiya Starts to Get Nervous

After leaving home, Ren wandered through the city, testing the abilities of the bracelet by planting "eyes" at various locations.

"Just as I thought, the planted eyes have no distance limit."

He had taken a bus from one end of the city to the other and walked through numerous streets, a straight-line distance of dozens of kilometers. Yet, the planted "eyes" remained active and fully functional.

Unlike the movable eyes, which could roam freely but were te...

SCIAW: Chapter 15: “Kaguya” Locked In

"Ha~"

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Isumi finally woke up, yawning softly.

The events of the previous day had taken a toll on her. Though she was an exorcist, at the end of the day, she was still a 13-year-old girl. Apart from her spiritual abilities, her stamina was no different from any ordinary teenager.

As she made her way to the hall, she was greeted by an unusual sight, Nagi sitting there with a red slap mark on her cheek. Nagi's eyes were slightly ...
