    • by Cristae Hunter of the Chick Class Does His Duty! Episode 192 “Disciple! Shall we head off to train together now?” “Yes!” Joorim clutched his throbbing head and asked, “Where are you suddenly trying to go?” “Ah—where, you ask? Right here!” Kazuki pulled up a photo from his phone to show them. Joorim, briefly skeptical of Kazuki’s preparedness, soon recognized the place in the photo and frowned. “Here?” There were quite a few temples in the mountains across the…
    • by Cristae Episode 255 Father stared fixedly at my lips. ‘He’s not looking at the lips I kissed Khalid with—he’s looking at the wound near my lips. Yes, it’s the wound near my lips he’s concerned about. The wound near my lips…’ As expected, Father clicked his tongue lightly and produced a small bandage from his coat. Ever prepared—the mark of a man with three reckless children. “Who would lay a hand on someone else’s daughter’s lips…?” Rip, tap. “How dare they……
    • by Cristae 244“Have the residents been evacuated?” In response to the Emperor’s question, the captain of the knights answered with unwavering loyalty. “We’ve finished evacuating everyone in the southwestern area where we anticipate the fighting will take place. The barrier magical devices for the city walls, developed by the capital’s outpost mages led by Asha Drucan, are also operational.” Barrier magical devices. The Emperor recalled the appearance of those contraptions, the likes of which…
    • by Cristae 166 “Dad!” A familiar face appeared just as I was heading toward the lobby! It seemed he had just returned from the knights or somewhere; Dad was taking off his coat and handing it to the butler when he spotted me and frowned. I half-rolled, half-ran down the stairs. “How many times have I told you to take the stairs one step at a time—it’s dangerous.” His big hand tapped the round, dough-like bun of hair at the side of my head. “What’s this, who gave you cotton…
    • by Cristae 4 Madam Yuris, the supervisor of the Imperial Rieta Shelter, opened her eyes wide. “Your Grace?” It was because Leviathan Zevert had suddenly appeared in such a disheveled state. He had also been her peer during their academy days. “What on earth has happened?” It was the first time she’d ever seen Leviathan look so frantic. His once immaculate uniform was now terribly rumpled, and his black hair was soaked with rain. He must have run here at full tilt, for even that…
    • by Cristae Hunter of the Chick Class Does His Duty! Episode 191 “You’re home? How was ballet?” “Today, I learned this!” Gru greeted her adorably, stood on tiptoe, and demonstrated a plié—a ballet move where the knees are bent. “Pliiieee—” Struggling with the motion, Gru groaned, and Joorim, watching her, smiled and kissed her on the cheek. Gru kissed Joorim’s cheek in return, then suddenly looked around as though searching for something. “Where is it?” “Hm? What…
    • by Cristae 248 Joorim closed the message window and, frowning, stared straight ahead. Seizing the opportunity, Jeon Byeongho spoke up. “…Then if we go back to the beginning… are you saying the Inoue Series is a derivative of the Amakusa Series because there was a problem with the contract between Japan and Amakusa Kazuki?” When Kazuki signed the contract assigning the Amakusa Series to Japan, he had set a few conditions. One of those conditions was a restriction on imitations. He was wary…
    • by Cristae Chick Class Hunter Is Doing His Filial Duty! Episode 163 Simulation Room. Dan set the monster’s level and type on the massive bio-printer, then stepped aside. Soon, a large hologram appeared in the center of the simulation room, projecting the design of an S-Class monster in full 3D. When Dan pressed confirm, the bio-printer began following the blueprint. Piece by piece, from claws to bones to flesh, the monster dummy took shape. The bio-printer, resembling a 3D printer, fabricated…
    • by Cristae Episode 156 Chapter: I Am Groo Even though an astonishing incident had occurred in Jeju, life at the kindergarten continued without pause. At Saebom Kindergarten, preparations for the year-end recital were well underway. The class for children younger than Groo’s age had already begun practicing the traditional fan dance. And while Groo was away in Jeju, it seemed the decision had been made that the four-year-old “Chick Class” would put on a play. “Here, this one is for you,…
    • by Cristae 267 Chapter Final Request Inside the special interrogation room of the Awakened Management Bureau. Daniella, investigator of Interpol’s Awakened Division (ECTF), glanced at the one-way mirror affixed to the wall. Surely, Jin Siwon and his team were observing the room from behind that mirror. After all, seated opposite Daniella was Dr. Alex Von, a prominent figure from the underworld whom Jin Siwon had personally apprehended. Daniella had hurried to Korea in search of the man Jin Siwon…

    • by Cristae 272 Daniela drew her gun and aimed it at Reiji. “Reiji, what’s going on? Don’t tell me this is all your doing?” Reiji Amakusa, a giant in the underworld, had appeared. In a single moment, the crisis deepened far beyond even the sudden arrival of Obsidian. “Hm? Of course not. I came to turn myself in to Agent Groo.” Clack! Before anyone realized, Groo had come over and clipped a pair of pink plastic toy handcuffs onto Reiji’s wrist. All eyes turned toward the…
    • by Cristae 174 What does it mean to become an adult? Is it just growing older? Or having a more mature appearance? I’m not sure. I never became an adult in my previous life. So I can’t say for certain, but I do know one thing: simply coming of age doesn’t magically transform you into something extraordinary. After all, the macarons I craved yesterday are just as tempting to me today, and the tedious classes I skipped yesterday are still as tempting to skip again. Maybe being an adult…
    • by Cristae Episode 187 Giuseppe wants to wipe out the dark mage organization. On the other hand, what Cheshire is after is the Red Tower Master—a wanted criminal from the Magocracy and a member of that same dark mage organization. At first glance, it might seem as if they’re chasing the same enemy. “The Red Tower Master absolutely must fall into the hands of the Tower. That old man knows too much—if he ends up in the Temple’s custody, we’ll all have headaches.” The two were not…
    • by Cristae Episode 80 But I was promptly caught before I could even get out of the greenhouse. Naturally, by Grandpa’s hand. “You don’t smell. It’s not because you didn’t wash that he avoided you.” “It’s too late.” “It’s true. He says he always gets nervous when you come around…” “What?” “…He says you make him nervous. I think he came to try to comfort you, Mister.” With just those words, Khalid hurried away. After skipping his training for days, the…
    • by Cristae 365 While the customer was waiting, Nurse Goo (Goo Hyeoyeon) kept him company with chat. Meanwhile, Groo retreated to the back of the booth, Wooju trailing behind. Behind the curtain, in the booth’s rear, Wooju placed the robots on the operating table. “This surgery won’t be easy today.” At Groo’s words, Nurse Seo (Seo Wooju) pulled gloves onto her small hands. With gloves flapping loosely on both hands, Groo clapped smartly. Now it was time to prepare the materials…
    • by Cristae Episode 179Even without going through Mikhail, there was a way to verify whether the First King’s prophecy was accurate. That was by asking Giuseppe, who currently possesses the “gift of prophecy,” whether he too had seen the kingdom’s calamity. However, if Giuseppe truly had seen it with his prophetic gift, I couldn’t approach him recklessly. If I made a mistake, he might discover that Leo was the Star of Heroes. ‘I can’t be sure, but I’ll try probing for a reaction by letting…
    • by Cristae 278 Lea leaned against the bus window, watching the German team’s coach, Thomas Kunz, through the gap in the seats. Scrolling rapidly on his phone, he looked angry enough for his ears to burn red. She could also hear the commotion from the other team members and coaches. No matter that the Korean team had two S-ranks—bringing a kindergartener was, to most, an outrageous arrogance and an insult. ‘We’ll have to work hard.’ Lea let out a quiet grunt and tried to sink out of…
    • by Cristae 238 Kim Inhan fought to mask his tension, speaking to his team in a measured tone. “Come to film another crafting YouTube, are we? Listen to those effects. Impressive, I’ll give you that.” His banter prompted laughter among the stiffened team—until the unfinished teddy bear’s ears twitched at the sound. Twitch! The laughter halted in an instant. Oblivious, the unfinished teddy dug in the hip pack slung across its chest, producing a strawberry yogurt and handing it over. You…
    • by Cristae Episode 223 "Ugh, it's so cramped." I crawled into the cave, inching my way through the gap between the rocks. I was the only one who could squeeze through the narrow passageway. Of course, I faced opposition from Kal and the rest of my family, but this time, I couldn't concede. "There's no way someone like Father could have been defeated by mere magical beasts. There must be another reason." "But still!" "If he's hurt and unable to get out, we have to rescue him quickly. Is there…
