Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [505]

The strange phenomenon over Galar was quickly broadcast worldwide through Silph Co.’s holographic communication network.

With the exception of Leon and his group, who were currently in the air, the entire world saw what was happening in Galar.

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [504]

According to the Strategy Division’s analysis, the best course of action was to wait until Rose lost control of Eternatus before making a move. That way, they could maximize the benefits.

Once Rose inflicted serious damage on Galar, Team Rocket could swoop in as saviors. It would give them the moral high ground—and make it easier to establish deep roots in the region.

“The Strategy Division, huh…” Luo Yuan shook his head at his subordinate’s question. “Though, I can�...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [503]

Giovanni had full confidence in Luo Yuan’s caution and refrained from interfering in his operations in Galar.

With Luo Yuan’s strength, unless every remaining Legendary Pokémon in the world teamed up to cause trouble for Team Rocket, he could handle just about anything on his own.

If anything, it was the situation in Kanto that required Giovanni’s close attention.

After all, Kanto was the League Council’s main target. The pressure here was intense—even Giovanni ha...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [502]

Oleana stared at Luo Yuan, her eyes filled with terror.

She desperately wanted to alert Chairman Rose to this conspiracy—but under Luo Yuan’s psychic control, she couldn’t even twitch a finger.

“Don’t waste your energy,” Luo Yuan said, watching as Oleana flushed red from the effort of struggling. “Even if you had a Machamp’s strength, you wouldn’t be able to break free from my hold.”

Then his tone shifted. “That said… I might be willing to le...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [501]

Sending both Leon and Raihan to Kanto might fulfill the League Council’s assignment—but if something were to happen in Galar while they’re gone, it would be a real problem.

Of course Rose hadn’t overlooked Oleana’s concerns.

“Pulling Leon and Raihan away works more in our favor.”

The moment she heard him mention “the plan,” Oleana’s eyes lit up in understanding.
“Chairman Rose… you’re planning to take this opportunity to seize full control of Ete...

Band Girls’ Mixology Mission [35]

Her thoughts were becoming sharper—clarity struck like a sudden spark, illuminating every minute detail in her vision.

The woman who had crashed into her lay breathless, her small frame rising and falling rapidly from the exertion of running. Her short, ashen-purple hair had come undone from the impact, strands scattering across the ground. Amber eyes, wide with lingering shock, trembled slightly like those of a startled animal, flinching away the moment they met Kyo’s gaze.

D...

Band Girls’ Mixology Mission [34]

The Kikukawa sisters stayed in their embrace for a while longer before Yuu let go—just in time to avoid making Kyo break into a sweat.

"I’m heading to the bookstore now. Are you coming with me, or do you have other plans today?"

As they left the study, Yuu did a quick check to make sure she had everything—bookstore keys, phone, wallet—all safely on her.

Kyo, meanwhile, dashed into the kitchen. She carefully washed and put away the cup her sister had used to pour her ...

Band Girls’ Mixology Mission [33]

Early in the morning, at exactly 6 a.m., Kikukawa Yuu was roused from sleep by the sound of her alarm. Half-awake, she groggily went through the motions of brushing her teeth, washing her face, and getting ready to head out and open the bookstore.

As she passed by the study, Yuu heard a faint rustling noise coming from behind the door.

Since their parents were often away for work, it was natural that they weren’t home now. They had been especially busy these past few days, so th...

"Sakiko, do you want to come along?"

Hearing Kikukawa Kyo's question, Sakiko hesitated for a moment. She had just been thinking about how to use the internet as a tool to improve herself, and now seemed like the perfect opportunity to learn more about it from this Nyamuchi-san.

But after a brief consideration, she shook her head. "No need, Kyo. Someone has to watch the bookstore."

There was no rush. Her current abilities were still lacking, and in her plans, now that she had...

Band Girls’ Mixology Mission [31]

"So, Miss Nyamuchi, you're a beauty vlogger?"

Kikukawa Kyo, who had inserted herself into the conversation, quickly got up to speed on the situation from her sister. Then, as if she had no intention of getting involved, she simply nodded and went about opening her can of coffee.

There was always one annoying thing about canned drinks—the rim always held a few leftover drops of liquid after taking a sip. Kyo, unwilling to let even a tiny bit go to waste, stuck out her tongue and ...

This Is My Holy Grail War [205]

Inside a passenger plane cruising above the clouds, the Lesser Grail sat quietly, curled up on Assassin’s lap. The Avenger was wrapped in thick ceremonial robes, and the eyes hidden beneath her hood glinted with a faint, imperceptible tenderness.

The Lesser Grail looked younger than Irisviel, though a bit older than Illyasviel. But compared to every other iteration of the Lesser Grail, she might have been the youngest yet.

Her growth had been accelerated—so much so that when A...

This Is My Holy Grail War [204]

Marco witnessed it firsthand—the weaving of black magical energy. The threads of visible mana swirled through the air, gradually forming a precise and elegant magic circle. For a modern magus, it was nearly unimaginable—he actually saw Assassin shape mana with mere words.

Assassin was about to summon a second Servant, and perhaps that would place an even greater magical burden on him. He didn’t seem to mind, but Inka certainly did.

Only, Inka cared for him—and he cared eve...

“Giovanni… what would you say is the purpose of your existence?”

Elias let out a long sigh, dragging out his tone as he asked in a slow, thoughtful drawl.

Giovanni: ?

What the hell’s gotten into him?

They hadn’t seen each other in years, and now Elias was suddenly waxing philosophical?

Was this the price of resurrection or something?

Giovanni couldn't help but feel uneasy.

And it wasn’t just him—even Gardevoir blinked i...

Pokémon: Breeding Simulator [119]

As they walked through Team Rocket's headquarters, a flicker of nostalgia crossed Gardevoir’s eyes.

Back then, Elias had brought her through this very place, fighting their way to Giovanni’s office—only to end up forging a cooperation with him.

And now, somehow, all those years had gone by in a blink.

Since the interior of the Silph Co. building wasn’t particularly large, and they encountered no obstacles along the way, the group quickly made it into the elevator. 2025-04-12 17:28:06 +0000 UTC View Post

Pokémon: Breeding Simulator [118]

【Huh?】

Hearing Elias’s words, the system paused for a moment before quickly reacting, its voice sounding somewhat defensive.

【Host, you know me—I'm always steady and reliable in critical moments.】

【What happened just now absolutely has nothing to do with me!】

The system's response was quite intense, clearly irritated by Elias’s suspicion.

Aside from accidentally deleting part of the system manua...

Pokémon: Breeding Simulator [117]

If Elias remembered correctly, in the original timeline, Sabrina had indeed joined Team Rocket and even risen to become one of the three Executives in Kanto.

But with his presence altering the course of events this time around, Giovanni shouldn’t be lacking in psychic operatives.

Besides, Sabrina’s personality here differed somewhat from the one in the original—yet even so, she’d still ended up joining Team Rocket?

Looking at Elias’s stunned expression, Sabrina see...

Pokémon: Breeding Simulator [116]

The moment Gardevoir heard what Elias said, her adorably sweet face clouded over.

Elias would never lie to her—so Team Galactic really had been keeping critical information from her about capturing the temporal and spatial dragons.

And to think she had actually considered sparing the organization, just in case they’d be of use later.

But now, even wiping them off the face of the earth wouldn’t be enough to quell the fury she felt after being deceived.

If Elias ha...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [500]

Rose and Oleana had never imagined that signing a cooperation treaty with Kanto would have such a massive impact on Galar.

It had only been a single night since the treaty was finalized.
And on the very next day…

As the people of Galar were still reeling from Leon’s unprecedented and crushing defeat, they noticed something strange: an unfamiliar kind of store had begun appearing across their streets.

These stores were planted right in the heart of Galar’s busiest co...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [499]

“Does Luo Yuan have some kind of grudge against us Galar folks or what?”

While Luo Yuan was still on the call with Lance, Oleana, who had watched the entire match from start to finish, found herself deep in thought.

Logically, she knew that was a ridiculous idea. But looking back at Luo Yuan’s unrelenting aggression ever since arriving in Galar, it was hard not to wonder if he bore some hidden hostility — if he was targeting them on purpose.

This battle had ...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [498]

Charizard — his ace — had lost to Luo Yuan.

Leon stood silently, the weight in his chest unbearable.

Because that meant... he no longer had a shred of hope left to win.

Yes — Leon no longer believed he could win.

He had only two Pokémon left. Meanwhile, Luo Yuan hadn’t lost a single one.

And then there was that—

Leon looked up at the towering Dragonite, standing with its hands on its hips like some smug, overpowered final boss, radiating...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [497]

The colossal Dragonite dove from the sky.

It was the same move — [Dragon Rush] — but when used by this massive Dragonite, it was on a completely different level compared to Dragapult’s earlier attempt.

The sheer weight behind the plummet stirred violent air currents, compressing the atmosphere with enough pressure that Charizard, the target of the attack, felt a crushing force descend upon it.

Charizard braced itself, wings flaring wide as the shimmeri...

Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [496]

“Its true form?”

When Luo Yuan spoke, Leon didn’t immediately understand what he meant.
True form? Could Dragonite… evolve further?

Before Leon could think more, Dragonite let out a long, echoing roar.

“Woooo—!”

The cry rang out pure and clear, but it carried a strange sense of solitude, echoing like a lone call through empty skies.
The [Draco Plate] hidden within Dragonite’s body responded to its conscious activation, aw...

Cynthia looked over at Gardevoir’s position.

There she was—struck by [Brine], lying on the ground in visible pain, her body weak and trembling...

There was even a kind of delicate, tragic beauty to her.

Milotic, on the other hand, was in much better shape. The [Aqua Ring] was still active, slowly and steadily restoring her stamina.

But Cynthia didn’t let her guard down. The battle wasn’t over—anything could still happen.

Pokémon: My Titles Know No Limits! [234]

When August heard Cynthia's question, he glanced at the [Mind Plate] floating beside Gardevoir. “That? ...It’s a cutting board! They say food sliced with it tastes especially good.”

“...Cutting board?”

For a moment, Cynthia’s mind stalled.

This ‘cutting board’ is what lets Gardevoir [Teleport] continuously?

August cleared his throat. “Ahem—kidding. Seriously though, it’s actually an item...

Pokémon: My Titles Know No Limits! [233]

After Gardevoir once again dodged Spiritomb’s [Shadow Sneak] with a well-timed [Teleport]—

Cynthia brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, a flicker of disbelief in her expression.

From their earlier exchanges, she had already gotten a general sense of August’s Gardevoir’s strength.

It was at the Champion level, no doubt, though still somewhat inferior to Diantha’s Gardevoir.
And so far, that assessment had held—Gardevoir had...

Pokémon: My Titles Know No Limits! [232]

“Let’s go with a standard 3v3 match.”

On the training grounds, August and Cynthia came to an agreement.

Compared to a draining full 6v6 battle or the less strategic 1v1, 3v3 was just right.

Since it was a friendly match, no referee was needed.

After both sides were ready, they simultaneously threw their Poké Balls.

Two streaks of white light flashed—

Gardevoir, holding the [Mind Plate], appeared before August, while the Pokémon Cy...

Pokémon: My Titles Know No Limits! [231]

Just when she thought she’d acted without a trace, a voice suddenly sounded in her ear:

“What are you doing?”

Only then did Sabrina realize that August had been watching her—who knew how long he'd been standing there?

Her body stiffened for an instant. But having once been an executive of Team Rocket, she quickly recovered.

Feigning confusion, Sabrina asked, “What’s wrong?”

August chuckled at her act but didn’t press further.

Down in the are...

"By the way, Sakiko, have you thought about your plans for the future?" Kikukawa Kyo asked.

"The future?" Sakiko assumed Kyo was asking about what steps she was taking toward her goals. "I still have too little accumulated. For now, I plan to work hard at the bookstore, buy more books, and expand my knowledge…"

"That’s not what I meant." Kyo shook her head. She wasn’t expecting Sakiko to become some big-shot overnight just to fulfill their agreement. "I mean something more i...

Kikukawa Kyo would make a terrible cafeteria lady. When she scooped up the chicken soup, she somehow managed to pile the bowl high with chicken meat—practically a whole meal in one ladleful.

A thin layer of white oil shimmered on the soup’s surface, and the rich aroma, carried by the rising steam, was utterly mouthwatering.

Damn it… If I drink this, it’ll feel like I’ve lost.

But in the end, Sakiko couldn’t resist. She took a sip, and as the piping hot b...

“The view count on my recent videos has been a bit sluggish…”

As per her daily routine, Yuutenji Nyamu checked the stats on the videos she had uploaded online. Having recently started her journey as a beauty vlogger, she had gained a fair amount of recognition thanks to her striking appearance, quickly amassing a considerable following.

“And the follower growth has slowed down too.”

However, the downside of relying on her looks for rapid success was that Nyamu soon...
