Kugugugugu-! Above Jormungandr’s head. Riding atop the violently undulating body of the serpent, we were desperately trying to destroy its last vertebra. “Just grind it down a bit more!” “We’ve almost got it! Just a little more…!” Despite being on the verge of collapse from exhaustion after three days of non-stop action, everyone was clinging…

“Are you just going to sit here and wait to die?” Ash spat the words out as he stood before Damien. Damien realized it—these were his own memories. “So? Planning to gracefully kick the bucket by giving up and doing nothing?” But when… when had they had this conversation? “I’m going to fight! I will…

(TL Note: After careful consideration, I’ve changed Van to Ban. Why? Ban sounds more feminine.) Snap! As Damien reached for the [Black Queen], Kureha seized his hand. “Damien.” “…” “The malevolence I sense from this gun is extraordinary. Are you sure about this?” “Let go. Now.” “Even the Crown Prince warned you. This is…” “Let…

Magical Forces Commander Reina. And four direct-subordinate squad members. Codenames Fox, Rabbit, Kitty, and Piggy. Among them, Fox and Rabbit were elites who had assisted Reina for a long time, but Kitty and Piggy were new recruits assigned to Reina’s party for this deployment to Crossroad. Of course, even as newcomers, they were part of…

Deep into the night, I exhaled heavily, my gaze fixed on the last werewolf standing before us. It was the final Gray Werewolf. The creature, already torn to shreds, was gasping through its punctured lung, emitting a boiling cry of agony. The fight against the last of the werewolf spawn had become utterly tiresome. They…

Our current location was between Jormungandr’s head vertebra and the central vertebra. We decided to head back to the central vertebra to regroup until dawn, knowing that the head vertebra was likely occupied by werewolves. However, retreating and regrouping were far from easy. Werewolves repeatedly ambushed us from the shadows throughout the night. We barely…

It was an unprecedented shitshow—hostile legions making unexpected appearances in the middle of a stage. Yet, there were two silver linings in this unfortunate situation. The first was the existence of the ‘Intrusion Penalty.’ [Unexpected Event — Werewolf Legion Intrudes!] [Repel the suddenly appearing Werewolf Legion!] — Grey Werewolf Lv.35 [Elite][Penalty Applied]: 15 in total…

“Phew, that’s a relief. Thanks, Ash.” Wiping herself down with the towel I handed her, Nameless gratefully offered me a handshake. “What happened, Nameless? Why were you inside Jormungandr?” Ignoring the handshake with forced casualness, I asked Nameless. How on earth do you wind up doing a miraculous rendezvous inside a monster’s belly? What the…

Crossroad was peaceful. Ash, the Lord and Commander, had ordered an evacuation, and a refuge had been prepared in the northeast of the city. Citizens had begun to pack their belongings, making their way to the refuge where clean water, food, and various facilities were provided. Contrary to the current situation labeled as “evacuation,” the…

“Hello, I’m Fox…” “I’m Rabbit…” Two mages from the support troops greeted me nervously. Both of them were dressed in the black uniforms of the Imperial Army, topped with the white robes unique to the mage corps, hoods and all. Due to an impromptu party reshuffling, we were tasked with destroying the spinal nerve center…
