Hu Tao Is Monetizing My Existence. [171]

“I’m joining too!” Chongyun raised his hand. “I may not know how to write, but I can help with errands and odd jobs.”

Jiang Bai watched helplessly as his role got snatched away by Chongyun.

Still, he didn’t rush to say anything—he was already part of the team from the start.

“With everyone involved, we’re bound to create a story that’ll take off!” he spok...

Honkai: Star Rail – Banner Character, Delivering Knives to the Player [15]

As Himeko’s figure disappeared down the corridor, Welt leaned closer to Lingzhou and said quietly:

“Be sure to warn March 7th… to stay cautious about tomorrow’s coffee.”

Dan Heng? He could drink it without flinching. No need to worry about him.

“Probably won’t be necessary,” Lingzhou replied. “We’re setting off on the next journey tomorrow, after all.” View Post

Lingzhou is not a Masked Fool.

Seriously.

Lingzhou: "Young lady, you’ve got the look of someone born to sail the stars. I can tell you’re destined to make a name for yourself across the cosmos. Staying on the space station just to be studied by Herta would be a waste of your talent. Why not join the Astral Express and become a Nameless? Start your own journey of ...

“Come my ass.”

“But Aha did come, teehee! It’s been, what, twenty-something years? And you’re still so dear to Aha’s heart~”

He really had become just a head.

A very beautiful woman’s head.

Perched right on Lingzhou’s shoulder.

The scene was as horrifying as it sounds.

Anyone else walking in—anyone not used to this—would probabl...

As the saying goes, you reap what you sow.

Gift a player one special pass, and you might get thousands—tens of thousands—in return!

Lingzhou fell into thought.

Of course, giving gifts couldn’t be done casually, nor in bulk.

Once any in-game resource stopped feeling rare, its value would plummet.

In most gacha games, downtime was the norm. View Post

“Let’s get you airborne!”

Ah Xian’s eyes lit up as she couldn’t help but gush:

“So cool! But man, he really hates using those wings to speed up.”

“Why are you so obsessed with Lingzhou’s wings?”

“Can you not picture a lovestruck girl nestled in her beloved’s arms, soaring through the sky with him? That freedom, that intimacy—so romantic~~”

The silence stretched between them, growing a little awkward—at least from Nase Sumire’s perspective.

She felt like this was the most humiliating day of her entire teaching career. Getting schooled in real-world practicality… by a student.

Nase cleared her throat and tried to recover some ground. “Your parents’ success must’ve come from years of hard work. You should inh...

In all honesty, Chiba Shuuichi really wasn’t trying to avoid the home visit—he was just being considerate.

In his previous life, he’d seen it all: young professionals charging into the workforce full of ambition, only to be broken by workplace pressure within a few months, sobbing on the phone to their parents.

Middle-aged men crushed by corporate life, dragging their...

Ogawa Fumika had a sinking feeling. She was almost certain her sister had just messed with her again.

“W-what kind of… payment are you talking about?”

Sayuki replied with complete nonchalance, “Those ripped stockings you wore yesterday. I gave them to him as a little treat to go with his evening drink. Wonder if he’s ‘sampled’ them yet. He had class today, so ...

Chiba Shuuichi spent the entire morning half-asleep in class. Sure, this youthful body had its perks—but it also meant he needed plenty of sleep.

As soon as the lunch bell rang, the students sprang back to life, noisily pouring out toward the cafeteria or gathering to eat their bentos in clusters around campus.

Chiba grabbed a yakisoba bun from the vending machine. He’d always h...

After delivering their gifts, the Ogawa sisters left to visit the other shop owners on the street.

Chiba Shuuichi watched them go, then turned back inside without rushing to school. Instead, he headed upstairs to examine the two omiyage they’d left behind.

Ogawa Fumika had given him homemade cookies. The moment he picked up the box, a sweet aroma wafted through the air. The cookie...

Look forward to the gift, huh?

As he watched the twin ladies disappear into the distance, Chiba Shuuichi rubbed his chin, pondering the sudden shift in their attitudes.

I don’t know what changed, but even though they thought I was up to something shady, they still signed the contracts. Doesn’t that mean…

He pulled a small shirt button from his pocket an...

“Two units?”

Chiba Shuuichi blinked in surprise. He had honestly thought this deal had fallen through, so much so that he’d all but given up and told them to check out other locations.

But now—sudden reversal?

“That’s right,” Ogawa Sayuki replied with a cryptic smile tugging at her lips. “I plan to open a shop here too, right next to my sister’s.”

As Ogawa Sayuki withdrew her hand, Chiba Shuuichi’s gaze happened to catch a faint mark on her ring finger—an indentation left by a wedding band.

So, she’s married too? No rings on either of them, though… Divorced?

Sayuki turned and shrugged off her jacket, draping it over her sister’s shoulders. “Mind if we use the bathroom?”

“Go ahead.”

The woman in front of him had a figure so outrageously voluptuous it practically broke the rules of physics. Her fitted blazer was struggling to do its job, pushed to the sides by the sheer volume underneath. The white blouse she wore beneath it was pulled taut, rising steeply over her chest.

The second button at her collar looked like it was on the verge of snapping—tensed like it was ...

As the administrator of a local shopping street, Chiba Shuuichi’s job is to take good care of the neighborhood shop ladies—his tenants.

Honkai: Star Rail – From the Moment Tom Cat Became My Passenger [15]

As she sprinted, Himeko rapidly sent a message to Welt, urging him to back up Yevenko and the others as soon as possible.

At the same time, Asta was transmitting the Doomsday Beast’s movement data directly to her.

When she saw the red marker heading not for the Astral Express but toward the support module, toward Yevenko’s group specifically, a grave look appeared on Himeko’s ...

Seeing the patient awaken, Tom gave a satisfied nod.

Even if the defibrillator hadn’t been used, startling someone awake still counted as a form of treatment—right?

Tom elegantly tidied up the defibrillator, packed it neatly, then placed it back into the floating dialogue box. At that moment, March 7th was cautiously poking the box with her finger. Her eyes, radiant like prismat...

While Kafka and Tom were locked in an intense, all-out brawl, Yevenko and Silver Wolf had somehow slipped into a chill gaming chat session. The outcome—Kafka getting ganked mid-battle—left Silver Wolf feeling… slightly awkward.

Seeing the interested looks Silver Wolf and Kafka were throwing his way, Yevenko cleared his throat.

“Uh, I mean, we’re all cat owners here, right? How about we let bygones be bygones—for my cat’s sake?”

Kafka’s smile deepened, lips parting ever so slightly.

“Sure. Leave the cat with us. As long as you don’t speak a word of what happened here, we’ll let you g...

“...A cat?”

Before she even spared a glance at the tall, dashing, elegant, and ostensibly refined Yevenko, Silver Wolf’s eyes lit up with interest—directed, unexpectedly, at the utterly ordinary Tom.

After all, the Stellaron Hunters already had a "cat" in their ranks.

And this one? This cat was walking on two legs. That alone was suspicious.

Staring at the scorched remains of the forest, everyone involuntarily swallowed hard.

If that [Shadow Ball] from earlier had been aimed at them… not even ten Luxray could’ve held the line.

With the Pearl Clan Chief making the first move, the others quickly followed suit.

“Miss Irida, would you like to come with us?”

One of them turned and invited her, hoping to bring her along as a witness. If they caught the so-called monster in the act, her protests wouldn’t matter in the slightest.

Irida hesitated, then gave a small nod.

From Cynthia’s perspective, Volo’s plan really was quite decent.

If it had any real flaws, they were likely limited to just three:

His careless handling of the [Keystone].

His miscalculation of the Pokémon by Elias’s side.

"Impossible. There's no mention of the name of the almighty Sinnoh in the texts passed down to me. How could it be common knowledge?"

When Elias first saw the Plate beneath Spiritomb, he thought he was seeing things.

Internally, Xingqiu groaned:

“No one can exist forever—not even the gods.”

Leaving behind this weighty remark, Morax’s figure vanished from Liyue Harbor.

After the Geo Archon departed, the meeting room fell into silence.

What exactly had the Geo Archon meant by that?
