[Life is Good] Chapter 57
Reminder: Chapter 56 was hidden by PatreonI met Miss Blanc the next day.She was open, friendly, and surprisingly cheerful. Every now and then, she’d glance at her prosthetic arm, but she didn’t look broken or bitter about it. We had a quick chat, with McCoy and Jennifer joining in, and when Erika showed up, we all headed to check out the armor.Valerie warned me in advance that the exosuit was ...

‘Gotta get out. Gotta.’ The thought rang in my head like a goddamn death sentence.Just minutes ago, I had gained immense power and a form of existence I never had before. It wasn’t just emotions. Standard emotions don’t work for me in a net embodiment. It was more like an urge—an instinct to grow and hold onto my newly gained mass. A specific kind of greed, mixed with a hint of self-pres...

"Whoa!" Naruto exclaimed, spinning around to take in their surroundings. "I never would’ve guessed there was a place like this in the Forest of Death!""Yeah, it’s a good thing your little kitty led us here," Sakura agreed, crouching down to pet me. "Sorry I was against bringing you along, Namaiki-san."I puffed up proudly and purred. Alright, fine, I forgive you,...

It wasn’t until the next morning that I fully realised it was over—Potter wasn’t in the tournament.Of course, the threat of Voldemort’s return hadn’t disappeared. I was sure he’d come back sooner or later. But now, at least, that moment had been pushed back indefinitely, giving me a much-needed breather to sort out other issues—and actually have some time for my own life. Plus, I did...

Konstantin quickly realized why Ranni had been so afraid of the Baleful Shadow: it was different. Different in every way.Every smallest detail screamed of unnaturalness, from the space-warping image drenched in bloody-black hues, to the strange force emanating from it.An unnatural, cold power, somehow reminiscent of casuals' strength, yet vastly surpassing it.Kosta didn't expect to feel th...

Konpeki Plaza was a digital fortress—not much weaker than Susan Abernathy’s last stand. Layered ice barriers, counter-intrusion systems, and a fortress of security measures, from tripwires to lethal counter-hacks. But when we hit its core with the bot, that whole fortress crumbled. The system didn’t even react properly at first. But then, when the alarm triggered, another defense mechanism k...

While my humans were away, it kept raining in Konoha. Good thing the rainy season in the Land of Waves—where they had been sent—was shorter and had already passed. The climate there was pretty diverse anyway, thanks to the sea winds, mountain ranges that blocked storms, valleys, hot springs, and shifting elevations.I spent most of the time sleeping, eating, and going outside when the rain let ...

Everyone was up at the crack of dawn, chattering excitedly as they rushed to the hall, eager for some quality entertainment. The prefects had passed on Dumbledore’s message the night before: anyone determined to test the Age Line and try to cheat the Goblet’s protections had exactly two hours before breakfast to give it a go—before the foreign guests arrived. Anyone foolish enough to try it ...

"You... shouldn't...""Quiet," I whispered in response to Lucy’s weakening voice. "Right now, just focus on holding out until I get to you. We’ll argue about this later."I made my way up the service stairs, the same ones Panam and I had used to get down earlier. Threw on the stolen body armor as best I could. Hopefully, if no one looked too close, I’d pass for one ...

Any player who had ever stepped foot inside the Carian Study Hall knew about its resident professor, Miriam. The guardian of a trap devised by a deviously casual mind, a place where an ordinary knight had no business being.Agile, elusive, and fully aware of the dangers of letting a casual close the distance against a typical tryhard, she had burned through the nerves of many young Soulslike player...

The patrol went relatively smoothly after the sewer incident. We left a note for Daredevil, burned into a wall—her kind of sight should pick that up easily if she’s paying attention. Gwen and I had to talk Parker into it—she was dead seton tracking down Murdock, but neither of us were thrilled about another trip through the city’s septic system.I called a police sergeant—number courtesy ...

We were heading back to Konoha as a group of five. Hatake Kakashi met us on the evening of the second day after the start of our cat missionnear the caves. My presence wasn’t exactly hidden, but there was a convenient cover story: “This cat wandered into our group, and now Naruto wants to take him back to Konoha.”No idea if Kakashi actually bought it, but he didn’t argue. The kids wouldnâ€...

On the last Sunday of the month, when we were finally let out of the castle, I picked up some walnut halva in Hogsmeade, a pack of good tea, and went to visit Percy—to congratulate him on making it through his first month of teaching.From what I’d heard, the first-years actually liked his lessons, though they all agreed he was strict and not someone you wanted to annoy. They had a point—push...

As I said—this was a brilliantidea.At least, that’s what I kept telling myself as we stood at an intersection of underground tunnels, silently staring at three possible paths.Petra had realized the problem the moment we got down here and saw multiple routes branching off, but now, with three ways ahead of us, the issue was glaring.We took turns glancing at each passage and saying absolutely no...

To say that the hero Goldmask didn’t inspire confidence was an understatement. He looked as if he had burned alive at least five times and spent most of his life (and possibly death) on a diet of pure Erdtree rays.Standing on the ruined bridge, he silently gazed into the distance, towards the towering Erdtree, lost in thought.The only reason Kosta even remotely understood why Corhyn held the rev...

Saburo was here. Yorinobu too. That meant any second now…"Lucy, disconnect now!" I ordered.I remembered all too well what was coming next. The impending shitstorm included a full system-wide purge—every foreign netrunner in the hotel's network was about to get fried."No. Not until you’re out of there. That AV… it’s…""Yeah. You got it right. Get out!""Wha...

Once, in a past life, I watched a movie about a boy wizard. I can’t even remember his name now—I just recall he was a funny little kid with glasses. But there was one scene I remember: he’d stick his face into this big, smoking bowl and it was like he was hanging around inside someone else’s memories. Sure, he couldn’t ask them anything, but he could seeand heareverything going on.That w...

As I climbed the stairs to Gryffindor Tower with the others, my mind was still racing—could Moody really be Crouch? But standing under the shower a few minutes later, I shoved the thought aside and called myself an idiot.Barty had copied Moody’s mannerisms perfectly, so of course, the real one would act just like he did in the book. And honestly, what would Crouch even be doing here if Wormtai...

TN:Since the previous chapter technically marks the end of Book 1, here’s an Interlude. In the original story, this chapter was used for an announcement and a link to the continuation, but since our circumstances are different, consider this a freebie.--------------------An endless white void stretched from horizon to horizon. If there werean observer—though none existed—they might wonder: h...

“Fuck… what dumbass designed these uniforms?” Panam grumbled, struggling to adjust the tight black suit with its subtle red tint. “Workwear’s supposed to be comfortable.”“Not for elite hotel staff,” I replied. “Be grateful we don’t have to slap on gold realskin. The main crew at Konpeki? They shine like fucking trophies.”“I’m sure they could’ve made something both styli...

"How do you think we should translate ‘le principe’? Should it be ‘rule,’ ‘cause,’ ‘origin,’ or ‘foundation’?" Granger asked, looking up from a thick dictionary. Despite all the preservation and cleaning spells, the book looked as though the last person to use it had lived during Napoleon’s time."In the original textbook, it’s closer to ‘principle,’ but in t...
