Chapter 229: Tsubaki's Request
After visiting Tsubaki at the hospital, ten days passed.
As the first live battle of Virtuoid idols approached within a week, a peculiar tension began to simmer among gamers across Japan's islands.
Could it be because of the novelty of this gaming style?
Even those not particularly fond of games seemed to take a notable interest in their activities. What was the reason behind it?
In recent times, on PC communication com...

Chapter 228: Tsubaki's Request
“Twinkle, twinkle, little star~ Shining brightly afar~ In the eastern sky~ And in the west so high~ Twinkle, twinkle, little star~ Shining bright~”
"Wow~"
Clap, clap, clap, clap~
As I entered the special ward where Tsubaki's hospital room was located, laughter from children echoed somewhere.
Amidst their laughter, faintly amid the joy, I slowly moved toward where their voices were coming from.
"Sis~!! Call us ...

"How is Sawano doing?" I inquired.
The elderly doctor adjusted his glasses, appearing concerned as he responded to my question. "She's managed to pass the critical phase, but honestly, making it this far has been somewhat miraculous. It might be better for her to be hospitalized now..."
Is this where it ends? No, contrary to the doctor's opinion, I'm just grateful for Tsubaki's resilience up until today. However, Terada-san, who ru...

Chapter 190: Death's Finger and the Mother of Labor
Matthew's combat prowess far surpasses what meets the eye.
Consider his individual abilities, compounded across various fields; facing a fifth-tier opponent as a third-tier individual isn't particularly challenging for him, especially on his home turf.
In the graveyard and oak forest, a variety of allies silently observed the Sphinx.
The vast numerical difference alone created immense pressure.

Some realms have a mild temperament, allowing Matthew to choose when to enter, like the newly opened "Necrom...

It was evident that Matthew couldn't grasp it.
In theory, a necromancer seemed to be the best profession for triggering traps with their physical bodies. However, in practice, it wasn't as straightforward. Both skeletons and zombies were too fragile; a low-level undead could trigger at most one trap. In a trap-intensive area like the Spider Tunnel, using summoned creatures to explore each one would demand an immense amount of effort.<...
