“Nope, totally normal.”
After a moment of thought, Kamigawa Saku answered with absolute certainty.
It was hard for him to imagine that Shiina Taki would be sick given how she’d been acting just yesterday.
“In that case, it’s starting to sound like she’s faking it,” Yahata Umiri said, although she wasn’t one hundred percent certain. “Either way, I’ll drop by to check on her later.”
“To be honest, I think so too—there’s a very high chance she...

Jeanne d’Arc was not someone who relished combat. If possible, she always preferred to resolve issues peacefully. Thus, she had no reason to reject the goodwill Artoria was showing her.
As they spoke, Artoria began sizing up the saint before her.
Another “Artoria-face,” but Jeanne’s… scale was noticeably larger than Artoria’s—though she was referring to her Saber form, of course.
Artoria recalled that this Holy Grail War was unusual because the pr...

“Well, hasn’t she shown up yet? I’m starving from all this waiting…”
Mordred, of course, was referring to Jack the Ripper. At the moment, she and Artoria were away from Kairi Sisigou to lure Jack into appearing.
If Kairi had a Servant visibly at his side, their target might grow cautious and flee.
“The sun hasn’t fully set yet. For her to appear, it’ll have to be night—when the darkness fully takes hold. That’s also when Servants are at their most active,...

Artoria shared all the details about Jack the Ripper’s abilities with Kairi Sisigou and Mordred.
Of course, the only one paying attention was Kairi. Mordred had wandered off to play with a stray cat by the roadside.
Jack the Ripper possessed numerous abilities.
First, she could generate a corrosive mist that obscured her presence. The mist helped her conceal herself, making her a dangerous foe to locate and engage.
Second was her Information Erasure skill, which rend...

Even among Heroic Spirits, those with the ability to see the future are no ordinary figures.
Half-incubus, the King of Heroes, the all-knowing Wise King.
And now… perhaps there was another such individual standing right before him.
Even though Kairi Sisigou knew this person bore no apparent ill intent, he couldn’t help but break out into a cold sweat.
“You’ll be working with us?” he asked cautiously.
“That’s correct. Assassin Jack the Ripper and her...

Putting aside that absurd speculation, Kairi Sisigou began contemplating the new mission… and sighed dejectedly.
“Ugh… why is it always me dealing with these dangerous tasks…”
“It’s not good for your health to keep sighing like that, Mordred’s Master,” Artoria suddenly interjected. “When I treated you earlier, I noticed many lingering injuries in your body. You must have endured a lot of brutal battles. If you don’t maintain a positive mindset, you might not ...

“W-Wife?!”
Furina faltered, visibly startled by Theresa’s declaration. She instinctively stepped back, glancing toward Luo Qing for clarification.
To her shock, he made no effort to refute Theresa’s words, his silence tacitly confirming them.
“So, you’re already... married?!” Furina exclaimed in disbelief.
She hadn’t anticipated that Luo Qing, of all people, would turn out to be a married man.

By the time Luo Qing finished assigning tasks to his three subordinates, it was nearly dusk.
Natalia and the others had their own accommodations and didn’t live with Luo Qing. After receiving their orders, they left one by one—except for one individual who held a special status.

Dvalin emerged from the dimensional space with a thunderous roar. The monsters lingering outside the Stormterror’s Lair, too slow to retreat, immediately collapsed to the ground, quivering under the sheer force of his draconic fury.

He thought about those peculiar methods used by certain maniacs to awaken the power of exotic bloodlines and transform themselves for battle.

Dragonite’s Thunder Punch connected with Pelipper’s jaw in one fluid motion.
As an Electric-type move, Thunder Punch was as devastating to the Water-Flying Pelipper as Ice Beam was to Dragonite—a quadruple weakness.
Even with Pelipper’s respectable 100 base physical defense, it stood no chance.
The punch drained what little remained of Pelipper’s stamina after weathering Dragonite’s earlier assault.
The Water Bird Pokémon rocketed away like a...

The two moves collided in a fierce chain reaction.
Pelipper’s Hurricane charged up almost instantly.
A powerful storm of wild winds surged toward Dragonite, howling as it engulfed the battlefield.
Unlike Scald, this Hurricane covered all angles—above, below, left, and right—leaving no room for evasion.
Keita glanced at Luo Yuan, hoping to catch some sign of panic or concern on his face.
But all he saw was calmness.
