Xia Luo sat back down beside Gwen. "Even without mutants, they’d find someone else to target—a group they see as a threat."
Gwen’s expression shifted slightly. "What do you mean?"
Xia Luo chuckled. "Think about it—most mutants are considered monsters because their powers are uncontrollable, and they’re a small minority compared to regular humans."
Gwen nodded thought...

Ritsuka took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Her eyes turned resolute, shining with unwavering determination.
"From now on, I will not underestimate anyone. Next time, I won't make the same mistake!"
This is the difference between the exceptional and the ordinary. The exceptional can reflect on every oversight and failure, drawing valuable lessons from them, and commit them to mem...

After hearing his explanation, Togawa Sakiko also recalled meeting this boy before and understood why he seemed familiar.
Yes, she had indeed run into this Kamigawa Saku at her workplace.
That day, as she was finishing her shift and about to leave, she’d encountered him coming out of a meeting room. They’d exchanged a few words.
But it had all happened in less than a minut...

Once the time was right, Kamigawa Saku followed the instructions for using the Tracking Card, silently repeating Togawa Sakiko’s name in his mind and picturing her face.
Then, he activated the Tracking Card.
In the next instant, a perfectly clear 3D map appeared in his mind.
On it, her exact location was marked, along with the shortest route to reach her.

After arranging the study session with them, Kamigawa Saku headed home.
As he walked, he sent a message to his band’s LINE group.
Even though Raana rarely used her phone, he’d still added her to the group. After all, leaving her out when they were all in the same band might seem like bullying.
Kamigawa Saku: By the way, midterms are coming up soon...

After saying goodbye to his own bandmates, Kamigawa Saku went to find Gotoh Hitori, who had been training all through the break.
She was sitting in the corner, chatting with Ijichi Nijika and Yamada Ryo.
“So, how are you feeling?” Kamigawa asked, casually joining the conversation.
“With everyone around, I can manage to play.”
Gotoh Hitori lifted her head, took a ...

Whatever these Pokémon hunters had in mind, they were clearly underestimating Team Rocket.
By poaching on Team Rocket’s turf in Kanto, they were essentially throwing down the gauntlet.
If they managed to get away unscathed, it would be a slap in the face to Team Rocket.
As executives, both Luo Yan and Sabrina had a duty to remind them who really ruled Kanto.

“Look, I think I’ve found something!”
A lone, injured Eevee had appeared nearby. Moving quietly to avoid alarming it, Luo Yan crept closer.
Then, with a swift motion, he reached out and caught it.
“Eevee!”
In a small, startled cry, the brown-furred Eevee found itself lifted by the scruff, suspended in Luo Yan’s grasp. Its tiny paws fla...

Sensing trouble, Gary wisely chose to keep quiet.
Still, he couldn’t help but feel shocked at the idea that Luo Yan somehow had two Gym Leader girlfriends.

Luo Yan’s words left Matori deep in thought.
It was true; with Deoxys under his command, Luo Yan was indeed qualified to establish his own faction.

This cliff stood as the northern boundary of Belobog, the origin point of an endless ice age.
