In the library, Strange was holding a magical book, reading it quietly. Beside him, Roger's soul was out of his body, lying there as if he were asleep.
“You never planned on teaching him magic, did you?”
Suddenly, Strange heard someone speaking to him. He turned to see the mage Wong, who was supposed to be dead, standing there with a suitcase in hand, seemingly ready to go on a trip.
Strange glanced at him and replied, “He can’t learn our magic. Whether it’s ...

Vice Admiral Tsuru said suspiciously, "Such a devastating battlefield, and that Celestial Dragon survived?"
The reporting Marine hesitated, then saluted firmly. "Yes, Vice Admiral. We've confirmed his identity. It's indeed Saint Rolviff."
Tsuru nodded. "Bring him here. I want to take a closer look."
The Marine obeyed. Garp, unconcerned, commented, "What's the point of seeing a Celestial Dragon? He probably just got lucky."
Ignoring Garp's usual bluntness, Tsuru's...

The Underworld
The Fabled realm of Devils, Fallen Angels, and a host of supernatural beings. Within a magnificent castle, a young man diligently practiced his swordsmanship in the courtyard.
"Nine thousand, nine hundred ninety-seven… ninety-eight… ninety-nine… ten thousand!"
He lowered his sword, panting, and wiped the sweat from his brow. The sixteen-year-old had silver-white hair and sharp, intelligent glowing orange eyes.
Though his hand...

Saeko Busujima
In the anime, she possesses immense popularity, surpassing even the main female lead, Miyamoto Rei, and Takagi Saya.
Following behind Saeko Busujima was Shizuka Marikawa.
She is Fujimi Academy's school doctor, and also a mature, stunning beauty with long, flowing golden hair.
Her classic professional attire, a black pencil skirt and white blouse, accentuated her incredibly curvaceous figure.
More importantly, this beautiful woman h...

The next day, Roy packed his bags for the return to Kuoh Academy. Summer break was over; it was time for his second year.
Each Devil family in the Underworld governed a specific territory. House Lucifuge was no different.
However, due to Roy's underwhelming power, Grayfia hadn't assigned him a territory of his own. She'd placed him at Kuoh Academy, jointly controlled by the Gremory and Sitri clans.
This way, she could keep a closer eye on him. He was, after all, ...

Could it be that his presence had altered the course of events?
Regardless, Hirano's fate was sealed.
Just then, Saeko Busujima and Shizuka Marikawa entered the classroom.
Taking in the scene, Saeko approached Roy and looked at Hirano, paralyzed with fear and shock after being bitten.
With a calm expression, she said, "I'm Saeko Busujima, captain of the Kendo Club. Third-year. What's your name?"

The third option: Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid.
Roy dismissed this one immediately. Tohru and Kanna were vastly more powerful than he was.
Also. they were dragons, making a contract significantly more challenging. Devil bloodlines weren't weak; the original story established their near-immortality.
A race capable of such longevity couldn't be inherently frail. Even so, contracting with dragons like Tohru and Kanna would require at l...

Roy observed the girls' diligent kendo practice.
He'd shared some techniques, surprised by their natural aptitude.
He even considered adding them to his peerage.
However, after some thought, he decided to wait. Choosing servants was a serious matter. Evil Pieces were a finite resource.
They were based on chess pieces. A Rating Game peerage consisted of one King, one Queen, two Rooks, two Knights, two Bishops, and eight Pawns, sixteen in total.

As Mika crawled out from the rubble, he faced two distinct paths.
The first was to swiftly escape the Type-Moon world and return for revenge after his injuries had fully healed.
The second was to strive to create an opportunity, to attempt a reversal of the dire situation.
Initially, Mika favored the first option.
As someone capable of traversing between worlds, he saw no need to engage in a desperate struggle against Gilgamesh. After all, Gilgamesh was a Servant who c...

Having done her best, Samui felt she had played her hand well.

Noir unfolded the map, studying it carefully. Then, he glanced at the unconscious Rolviff, a sinister grin spreading across his face.
With a map and a Celestial Dragon's face, things might become much easier.
Noir crouched down. As Rolviff watched in horror, Noir reached out and touched his own face, transforming his features to perfectly mimic Rolviff.
Rolviff shrieked, "Why? Why can you turn into me?!"
Noir chuckled coldly. "Well, you're no longer of any use."

Lying on the luxurious sofa that Samui had purchased, Gojo Kaigetsu felt a twinge of guilt.
“Well, I can't just leave Kumogakure high and dry.”
After all, he was a kind and benevolent ninja.
Just in case Samui eventually became his plaything, Kumogakure would be considered half her family!
As the saying goes, you can only shear a sheep so many times. He had already fleeced Kumogakure for so much; it wouldn't be right not to offer something in return.

Gojo Kaigetsu's new home.

“Fugaku, you’re late!” Uchiha Setsuna rapped his fingers on the table.
Already elderly, he was a representative of the hawk faction, advocating for seizing the Hokage position from the Senju lineage.
Whether through political maneuvering or force, the Uchiha must attain a position befitting their glory.
Therefore, he had long been dissatisfied with Fugaku.
A wavering and weak individual, unfit to lead their clan!

Minato was, after all, one of the nicest guys in the shinobi world.
There was another objective he hadn't mentioned. "Adaptability" also contained a hidden agenda of his.
That was to weaken the Third Hokage's influence in Konoha and the wider shinobi world. Weakening Hiruzen Sarutobi's influence meant indirectly weakening the Konoha Elders, the "F4" group backing him, and increasing the pro...
