Akiyama Tsuki held her forehead, grinding her teeth. “That guy's definitely after my sister. There’s no way he has good intentions!”
“Hmm…” Mrs. Akiyama tilted her head, blinked a few times, then turned to her youngest daughter with a casual look. “An-chan, do you like Chiba-kun? If you do, then there’s no problem.”

The scene was familiar: atop Mt. Coronet, Rayquaza and Mewtwo stood ready as always—except this time, Dialga and Palkia had taken on their [Origin Formes].
But honestly, [Origin Forme] Dialga and Palkia were hard to take seriously.
One had suddenly sprouted an Adam’s apple, and the other had lost its arms.
They looked less like gods and mo...

BOOM!
The explosion erupted in front of Avalugg.
Avalugg was sent flying, golden and [Terastal] lights flickering out as it crashed onto its mirrored back, legs flailing in the air.
Avalugg, pacified!

Irida had always known August was strong, but the speed of this pacification still left her stunned.

August didn’t even need to hear Volo say it to know exactly who this so-called “senior” was.
If Volo was calling someone a senior, it could only be Cogita. No one else fit the bill.
And in August’s view, meeting Cogita was basically on par with meeting Arceus themself.
But from his perspective, every word out of Volo’s mouth just turned into:

August scrolled through the list, double-checking to make sure there were no llamas. Only after confirming did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He tried selecting a smaller Pokémon for support and tapped the button.
The next second, a golden crack split open in the ceiling.
Then—a Gyarados-sized Magikarp, several times larger than a normal one, plummeted from above with...

Thud—
Lucario let go and dropped the figure he’d been carrying, landing her with a solid, muffled thump on the floor.
Now that she was closer, Elias could get a much clearer look at the person on the ground.
He hadn’t been mistaken—it was a girl with jet-black hair.
The sight gave Elias a headache.
Had Zoroark and Lucario just kidnapped some girl f...

Elias sat on a chair, gaze fixed on the distant sky.
His eyes lingered on Mount Coronet; though it was some distance from the Crimson Mirelands, he could still see it clearly.
What made Elias frown was the dark, cloudlike swirl atop the mountain.
That was the space-time rift, said to have first appeared near Mount Coronet more than a decade ago.
And ever since, the numbe...

After a long time brooding, Giratina realized—if it wanted to break out of this stalemate, it still had to rely on the Zoroark.
Previously, it had enlisted their help collecting Plates, hoping only to regain the strength needed to challenge Arceus once more.
But now that the barrier between the Distortion World and the mortal realm had thickened, Giratina needed the Plates’ powe...

Cynthia’s Home.
After bringing Zoroark and Lucario back to his own place, Elias made a special trip over to Cynthia’s house.
Since it was close to Cogita’s, he’d be able to head back easily in a bit.

The night was deep and still. Only the crescent moon in the sky shed a faint silver glow, while the wind whispered through dense leaves with a soft sasa sound.
There was a hint of floral fragrance on the breeze. Kochou Kanae landed as lightly as a drifting petal, while behind her, the decapitated head of a demon howled in its final, unwilling moments.

Dusk settled in, the sky growing darker as the full moon shone, draping the world in tranquil night.
With no electric lights in this era, villagers always slept early. The legends of man-eating demons only reinforced the habit—once night began to fall, everyone hurried home, doors firmly shut against whatever lurked in the dark.
In Nurarihyon no Mago, night belonged to yo...

The little girl was frozen in terror by how quickly everything had changed.
Just moments ago, she’d resigned herself to being devoured by the man-eating demon, steeling herself for death. She only hoped she wouldn’t drag down the beautiful, nameless onee-san who’d stepped in—and had even decided to entrust Tasuke to her care.
But then, in the blink of an eye, that terrifying...
