With Shutara Senjumaru as his first employee, Yamabuki Haruto shifted focus to securing investment. His target? Kano Chiharu. No girl resists beauty, just like few men shun power. Armed with his maid outfit, stockings, and charm, Haruto was confident Chiharu would invest.
Haruto led Senjumaru from Rukongai to the Kano estate. Chiharu, a fellow noble and Gotei 13 ally, greeted them warmly. “Need more money?” she teased, eyes glinting.
“I’m frugal,” Haruto huffed....

Shutara Senjumaru’s confidence thrilled Yamabuki Haruto. “Pay the deposit first,” she said, eyes on the sketches. “I’ll start once I have it.”
Haruto’s smile froze. Deposit? I’m broke. His poker buddies had cleaned him out. “Uh, forgot my wallet. I’ll grab the money and be back!” Miserable doesn’t cover it. Gambling debts and a half-month’s unpaid salary stung. No more cards. Ever.
Who could he borrow from? Kazenami Haru and Sas...

After testing the DV camera’s night vision, Yin switched it off fast. The grainy green static was too much.

Flashback: as a kid, Yin scored a pricey DV camera. “My parents wouldn’t let me near it—too expensive,” he told his viewers. “But kids, right? Tell me I can’t touch something, a...

Tokyo, Nebula Entertainment’s sleek office. Ethan Caldwell sipped tea as his assistant, Tommy, detailed Komina’s offer: “They want us as the exclusive platform for Silent Hill’s somatosensory cabin. They’ll fund promotion, split 50% of the commission, and toss in $10 million for marketing. It’s a short-term deal, with potential for more.”
Ethan’s hand shook, nearly spilling his tea. “That’s it?”
Tommy flipped his notebook. “Yeah, and they emphasize...

Subject: The truth needs to be revealed
You don’t know me, but they’re probably watching. I was a software consultant at Murkoff Psychiatric Research Group, Giant Mountain Asylum, for two weeks. What I saw was vile—cold-blooded greed. They’re profiting off inhuman experiments. Deep dream therapy fractures minds, and the suffering here is unreal. The truth must come out.

Seattle, Riverside Heights. Zoey Parker sat cross-legged, crunching sunflower seeds, as Walter Parker and Gus Harper battled over the chessboard. Komina’s aggressive Silent Hill push had hit X yesterday, and Gus had called it: To the Moon’s $25.5M charity haul forced their hand.
Zoey groaned inwardly, kicking herself. Her whim to make a charity game had somehow nuked Komina across the globe. Now they were burning cash on early promotion. Suckers. If Si...

“You’ve earned a break,” Yamamoto Shigekuni said. “Take half a month off to rest.”
“Captain, you’re the best!” Yamabuki Haruto’s eyes welled up. Since joining the Gotei 13, he’d been swamped, never imagining a vacation. Half a month? Perfect for his big plan.
Leaving Yamamoto’s office, Haruto headed to a Seireitei tailor shop run by a lesser noble. Low-ranking nobles relied on small businesses, unlike their highborn kin. Century-old shops thrived in Soul Soci...

“Poison?” Saitō Furofushi frowned. Poison in Kidō?
“My Zanpakutō’s power is poison too,” Yamabuki Haruto said smugly. “One nick from Silver Angel, and you’re paralyzed. Regret yet?”
Saitō scoffed, unimpressed.
The other captains lounged around the training ground, some munching snacks, others waving flags, all eager for the show. Haruto and Saitō locked eyes, tension crackling.

Kirinji Tenjirō worked frantically, Kaido useless against Yamabuki Haruto’s fading vitality. He stabilized Haruto’s condition, but barely. “No choice. I’ll use the experimental treatment.” He pressed a button, revealing a tunnel beneath the clinic floor. Carrying Haruto, he descended.
Two hot springs glowed below: one white, one red. The “White Bone Hell” purged damaged reiatsu and tissue; the “Blood Pool Hell” restored blood, flesh, and reiatsu. Cycling between them ...

Yamabuki Haruto crouched behind a dune, grappling with his reiatsu shortage. Silver Angel’s monstrous consumption left him drained, even with captain-level reiatsu. How do I fix this blue bar problem? A roar shattered his thoughts.
“I knew you didn’t go far! Your life is mine!” Baraggan, his skull and arm half-regenerated, had sniffed them out. His cunning matched his fury, leading his Hollows back to the ruins.

Baraggan swung his giant axe with savage glee, his eye sockets burning with madness, envisioning the Shinigami cleaved in two.
Yamabuki Haruto, seemingly frozen, drew his Zanpakutō and slashed upward. “An ant shaking a tree?” Baraggan sneered. “Still fighting?”
Space shattered like glass. Baraggan’s axe split, its wheel-sized blade halved. His arms and a third of his skull followed, severed clean. He hadn’t felt the cut until they hit the sand.

Zoey Parker wasn’t shy about spending. If Walter Parker’s approval was a game NPC’s favorability meter, she’d max it out with gifts. A top-tier protection buff for Gus Harper? Worth every penny.
But Gus wasn’t sold. Years as a corporate grinder taught him the art of gift-giving. Too cheap, and you’re dismissed. Too lavish, and the boss thinks you’re milking company funds. Walter might see these cigars, whiskey, and massagers as Gus siphoning WindyPeak’s cash. Capitalists...
