Arcane: TTB: Ch. 01

Piltover and Zaun were connected by a single bridge.

The Upper City was celebrated as the City of Progress, resplendent with dazzling lights, wine, and prosperity.

In contrast, Zaun, the Undercity has been poisoned by industrial waste and toxic fumes discharged by the Upper City.

Clouds drift between the cramped buildings, and the acrid smell of chemicals burns the nose of anyone unfortunate enough to breathe deeply.

The soil, water, and air were saturated with deadly ...

Very strange.

Although Aeltia's level of technology was not advanced, it had entered the Iron Age.

Mining for iron and silver ore shouldn't be a problem.

With such a large ore vein right on Honeyvale Town's doorstep, there was no reason it wouldn't have been mined.

I picked up a piece of iron ore fragment scattered on the ground and crushed it with force.

The stone couldn't withstand the hardness of my hand bones and easily crumbled.

The "Three Sacred Treasures" weren't easy to learn.

Masashi quickly understood this.

Because Fugaku, with his casual "learn it by tonight," almost made him forget—although these were ocular techniques, they were supplementary skills for Susanoo.

In other words, using the "Three Sacred Treasures" required activating Susanoo first.

Who could just casually activate Susanoo at home?

What would happen? The house collapsed while you were sitting there?

So, he b...

The confrontation between Fugaku and Masashi was no small event. Although their battle was confined to the area, the commotion had already alarmed the Uchiha clan members. The Uchiha compound, teeming with ninja, was soon abuzz.

It wasn't just the Uchiha clan; other major ninja clans in Konoha, known for their chakra sensory abilities, were also quick to react.

The Aburame were first to spot trouble, thanks to their bugs scattered all over the forest. They were followed by the HyÅ...

"You lost."

"Uh..."

The man only snapped out of the earlier fight when that cool, detached male voice rang out. The chilling sensation at his neck was so sharp he had no choice but to drop his sword in surrender.

The swordsmanship he had relied on for most of his life had been defeated by someone who didn't even appear particularly strong.

"Hmph." Kadi scoffed softly as he withdrew his saber, flicking off the blood before sheathing it. If they wer...

---Viktor's POV---

I still couldn't understand how there could be a mine right under everyone's noses in Honeyvale Town.

But the iron sand being pulled up by the magnetic force didn't lie.

The iron reserves in this vein seemed quite substantial!

ProGamer_Daddy stared at my wand in amazement.
"Whoa, what kind of magic is this?"

"It's not magic; it's science."

With a flick of my wrist, I caused the faint golden glow on the wand to flicker on and off.

HSU: Ch. 147

The Uchiha clan's training grounds, while referred to as a "grounds," were actually a large complex of multi-functional buildings.

Because the clan's ninjutsu excelled in direct combat, it was designed to be extensive from the very founding of the village.

During the era of Tobirama, the Uchiha clan's territory was relocated for the first time. Although moved to the relatively remote southern suburbs, the clan was granted a larger expanse of land in return.

Thus, the newly c...

At long last, the second Uchiha Snow and Ice Festival was officially announced with great fanfare.

The staff had already begun setting up at the location of the first festival.

This time, it was undoubtedly happening—no delays or cancellations.

The Uchiha clan's promise of hosting an annual festival had remained unfulfilled for years, as Konoha was rarely at peace after the Nine-Tails incident. Furthermore, the main organizer of the event, Masashi, had been constantly away...

I sighed and patted ProGamer_Daddy on the shoulder.

"Take another careful look at the task description."

He opened the game panel and read the task description aloud.

"Construct a temporary residence for the lord that satisfies him?"

"The key lies in the word satisfies," I explained.

I pulled out the map of Honeyvale Town given to us by Edgar. More specifically, it was the reconstruction map of the town.

"See? The houses for...

"I can somewhat understand how you're feeling," Masashi said.

Pakura turned to look at him.

"Time is something we all walk through. The joys and sorrows, the bitterness and sweetness, once tasted, become nothing more than memories—like waking up from a dream," Masashi continued. "Those who promise to stay with you forever can drift apart over something trivial. Those who vow never to abandon you will one day fade away like the wind. You have to get used to the inevitability of c...

It had been quite some time since Masashi last saw the White Snake Sage—almost three years.

Logically, beings like the Three Great Sages, who were each easily over a millennium old, should perceive time differently from ordinary people. Yet the three great secret realms seemed remarkably grounded in their perception of time.

From the sages on down, their understanding of time was surprisingly humanlike.

That said, their naps were impressively long.

The White Snake Sa...

"Of course! The remains of the gods affect entire species. For social creatures, that's nothing unusual," I explained, gazing at the still faintly trembling blood vessels on the body of the two-headed howling wolf.

"Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance. The power it holds is on par with a Chosen of the Gods."

"Strong regenerative abilities, extremely high magic affinity, and bizarre, ever-changing talents… Over 600 years of iteration, most surviving ma...

HSU: Ch. 143

It had to be said that ever since Masashi got used to creating "mechas" with his Ice Release, his interactions with the giant snakes of Ryūchi Cave had significantly decreased.

Once he unlocked Susanoo, he barely needed them anymore.

To him, summoning the giant snakes had become somewhat redundant in most situations.

Training Anko to succeed him as their summoner was part of his strategy. After all, having such a large group of snakes not frequently serving Konoha would be ...

HSU: Ch. 142

Watching the Iron Prometheus actually flying in the sky, the onlookers were completely shaken.

The difference between being able to fly and not was vast.

Take Kitsuchi as an example. As long as the enemy was grounded, he had ways to deal with them. But if they could fly…

The Third Tsuchikage was a user of the Light-Weight Rock Technique. Thanks to this ability, he wandered wherever he pleased when he was young.

After all, if worst came to worst, he could just fly awa...

Garble nodded in agreement beside me.

"The production put in a lot of effort. There's no way they'd make such a rookie mistake. I suspect they already have a complete and mature system for skill design."

"Maybe in the end, having more skills won't necessarily be better. Quality might matter more than quantity."

I watched as ProGamer_Daddy looked a bit dizzy trying to follow along. "So, does this mean we don't need to level up?"

"Who said that?" ...

After a day of rest, I felt much better.

The soreness in my body had mostly subsided, and I could move around freely. However, the skin on my surface wounds hadn't fully healed yet, so it was better not to remove the bandages for now.

"What a ridiculous ability. Bac...

"How is this possible!"

Hiruzen's eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed.

In the dense white mist, a familiar shadow appeared again—a shadow that had already become an unshakable nightmare for several Kage-level ninjas.

At the same time, Rasa, who could sense the situation through his gold dust, immediately noticed something was off.

"The size of the creature inside is decreasing!"

"What?"

Hashirama furrowed his brows tightly. Even as the God of Shinobi, h...

Rasa was running at full speed.

To be precise, the current Kazekage was leading the charge, followed by a group of jonin.

Among them were not only Suna's ninjas but also jonin from other villages.

Whether they were here to spectate or meddle, Suna had no choice but to let them tag along.

Especially considering the presence of Kitsuchi, and Mei—the precious assets of their respective villages were on-site.

The identity of Sasori was no longer a secret. It wasn't...

"Really? Hahaha, then I'll ascend to godhood with all titles," I replied smoothly, adjusting my tone.

Edgar shook his head. He didn't waste more time with what he clearly thought were my fabricated stories. Instead, he returned to sorting through the new tools we had acquired.

Of course, I didn't push all the work onto him. The task of reviewing player applications and improving the game interface still fell to me.

After instructing Luminaris to take...

The joys of people were not the same, except when drinking tea or eating food.

The pains of people were not shared either, unless the tea shop went out of business.

However, the tea houses in Konoha were increasing in number, and when Masashi went for tea these days, the discounts were becoming increasingly ridiculous. So, the joy and pain of Sasori were something he couldn't quite empathize with.

Mainly because he couldn't find the entry point.

Everyone experienced pa...

An explosion blasted the gravel into the air, only to have it fall back down. The clattering sound resembled raindrops hitting the ground.

Kimimaro stared blankly at Deidara, who was pulling out another lump of clay from his bag.

There was a reason the two of them were together.

"Didn't you say you could blow him up?" Kimimaro pointed at Hiruko, who looked completely unscathed, and gave Deidara a stern look, as if accusing him of lying again.

"It would've worked on som...

"Sasori?"

When Chiyo uttered the name, Rasa felt the heavy stone in his heart finally settle.

It all made sense.

This was good.

As long as it wasn't an inside job, he had nothing to fear.

If it was Sasori, everything fell into place.

"Because of the human puppets?" Rasa asked.

"Perhaps," Chiyo replied, her expression returning to its usual calm. "But his actions will plunge the village into crisis."

"Perhaps," Rasa echoed in the same tone as Chi...

HSU: Ch. 137

The yellow sand shifted as something small pushed up from below. Sand slid away, revealing what was hiding underneath.

It was a hunched man with an ugly appearance and disheveled clothing. A slovenly brute.

No, "brute" might be excessive—after all, you couldn't even see his feet.

This was not his true body.

He was once known as the Sasori of the Red Sand.

Through Hiruko, he gazed coldly at the familiar desert before him. Perhaps, just perhaps, a faint ripple st...

HSU: Ch. 136

Outside Suna, a wooden miniature puppet was slowly crawling across the sand.

Abruptly, a figure appeared beside it.

"So it really is a puppet..." the newcomer muttered, then swung his hand, sending a wind blade that split the puppet in two.

Soon after, more figures arrived at the scene.

"Masashi-sama," the captain of the Suna ANBU squad looked at the puppet on the ground. "Is this the one?"

"Yes, an impressive puppeteer," Masashi said as he observed the still-mov...

---Grimm's POV---

"Welcome to this world, child."

In my hazy dreamscape, a colossal figure bathed in a divine white radiance stood before me.

Its appearance was indistinct, yet my intuition and the resonance of my soul told me that this being embodied the will of the world itself—perhaps the Creator of this realm.

"Who are you?"

I tried to speak, but my voice seemed muffled in this space.

"I? I am everything here. The wind you fee...
