Allen ran for several kilometers before finally slowing to a halt and glancing back over his shoulder.
At that exact moment, Roxy also turned to look behind her.
Their eyes “met” across the distance, and—without a word—both turned back and continued on their way.
The road wasn’t exactly flat.
Allen had just descended a slope, and the rise between them blocked t...

“So good!”
Bright red pork, marbled with tendon and fat, had been evenly sliced into palm-sized square fillets, folded once over and skewered on water-soaked branches. They sizzled as they turned over the fire, the Maillard reaction painting their surface a tempting reddish-brown. Fat bubbled and cracked audibly, dripping down into the flames below.
Allen’s bangs were still da...

Roxy looked startled.
“...Boreas Greyrat? You—”
Allen grinned.
“A noble. Didn’t expect that, did you?”
Roxy quickly shook her head, as if something had just clicked.
“Wait… are you heading to Buena Village?”
Allen raised an eyebrow, playing it cool.

Roxy scrutinized his face carefull...

To act so boldly toward someone he’d just met… it was rude, no question.
But Allen had done it on purpose. Part of it, admittedly, was him getting a bit too cheeky just now.
But more importantly—
If this kept up, it was really going to turn into a blonde-haired romcom harem route.
Before transmigrating, he had been a huge Roxy fan—“Roxy this,...

Even as he focused on Roxy, part of Allen’s attention remained on the [Dragon-Saint Aura Seed] nestled in his abdomen.
Within his “sight,” curls of smoke slowly dissipated from the folds of the core’s surface, revealing a tiny, newly-engraved rune.
It was shaped like a small tree, glowing faintly with a soft blue light.
A sudden instinct surfaced—if ...

The person who had arrived was Roxy.
After responding to her hasty warning, Allen’s thoughts inevitably drifted back to the plot of the original novel.
There was no doubt about it—her appearance here, at this time and place, with a luggage trunk in tow, could only mean one thing: she had just parted ways with Rudeus and was on the road again, continuing her journey.

Four monsters emerged from the darkness.
Leading them was a bipedal, four-armed mutated beast — a Terminate Boar. Nearly three meters tall, it stared directly at Allen with blood-red eyes. Two massive tusks jutted from its gaping jaws, thick drool dripping onto the forest floor as it snorted and huffed with predatory hunger.
Trailing behind were three dog-like monsters ...

After confirming that Raana had indeed left in the direction of the school, Ririko finally felt at ease and returned to the café.

After shredding on the guitar for over a minute, Raana, still unsatisfied, casually plucked a few more strings before finally taking the instrument off her shoulder.
“Little Raana, you don’t have to go back to school just yet—there’s still some time left. You can keep playing a little longer if you want,” Ririko reminded her.

This was definitely something Kiyokawa Kyo hadn’t expected.

Seeing Raana obediently close her eyes, Kikukawa Kyo couldn't resist a little mischief—just like how people instinctively reach out to pet a cat when they see one.

Kikukawa Kyo casually shortened cat-like girl to just cat and observed Raana’s reaction. If she didn’t like the nickname, Kyo would take it back immediately.
But Raana didn’t seem to care much. It was as if she was already used to people calling her a cat. She blinked at Kyo, thinking for a moment, as if debatin...

By now, the two grunts—who’d previously been knocked out—had regained consciousness.

The rules for Great Ball Tier weren’t any different from those of Poké Ball Tier.
But the trainers’ mindset—now that was a whole other level.

Sabrina saw through August’s posturing in an instant.
But Sapphire, who hadn’t spent as much time around him, didn’t realize it. When she heard what he said, she widened her eyes and looked closely at the Eevee bouncing on top of Aggron’s head.
So... the Eevee is just that strong?
“Eevee,” August called, “let’s finish this match.”

Hearing the Diamond Clan leader’s gloating remark, the Pearl Clan chief gritted his teeth in frustration.
Like hell he didn’t know what that guy was thinking.
Every one of the Diamond Clan’s top contenders had been knocked out by that Cynthia girl. Now the man was clearly hoping Elias would follow suit—just another challenger thrown down from the path to the championship.
