  Chapter 193: Out of Control {TL: By Creed} The anomaly doesn’t end there. "Guu… Uuuu… GAAAAAAAH!!!" A sharp roar echoed—something unimaginable coming from the usually gentle Snow. And then, as if witnessing an illusion, Snow’s body began to grow. She surpassed Aisha’s height, became larger than me… And kept growing until she was bigger than a house. "W-what the…?" "Eh? W-wait… S-Snow!?" Licorice and I could do nothing but panic at the sudden turn of events. Aisha and Lyra were stunned speechless. "GAAAAAAAAAH!!!" Unaware of our confusion, the transformed Snow howled toward the sky. The air trembled violently. The sound was so intense that I instinctively covered my ears with both hands. "Tch… Snow!" This isn’t right. An unknown sense of urgency pushed me to call out her name firmly. Snow glanced at me for a brief moment. Her eyes, dyed a deep crimson like blood. Her fur, as dark as the night itself. Her fangs and claws, sharp as spear...

  Chapter 192: Further deterioration {TL: By Creed} When we returned to the city, I was at a loss for words. Lyra had a similar reaction, her face turning pale. Aisha trembled, clutching Snow to her chest as if seeking comfort. "This is..." We had only been away from the city for about thirty minutes to help Lyra. Yet, in that short time, the situation had worsened even further. The number of rioters had more than doubled. Despite the adventurers and knights desperately trying to suppress them, there were simply too many. They couldn't keep the rioters under control and were instead being pushed back. At this rate, we might actually lose. And if that happened... what would become of the city? Right now, the adventurers and knights were barely holding the line, keeping the damage to a minimum. But if that barrier were to collapse... Just imagining it sent a chill down my spine. "Damn it!" We had no choice but to reduce their numbers. I struck down a nearby thug. ...

  Special Story: Hagoita {TL: By Creed} New Year's Day We stayed at a reasonably priced inn in town and welcomed the new year. Honestly, we had wanted to spend it at Sofia’s family home. Or at mine. But the timing didn’t work out, so we had to postpone it this year. Next year, we’ll spend it at one of our homes. “Auu...” By the fireplace, Aisha was curled up. She held her hands out toward the fire… Her tail curled around her, and she was wrapped in a blanket. Even though she has fluffy ears and a tail, she still gets cold. The same goes for Licorice, who was curled up on top of Aisha’s head. Next to them, Snow was also curled up. “Ugh, so cold… Ah-choo!” Her sneeze sounded a bit like an old man’s. “Aisha-chan, aren’t you cold? Should I add more firewood?” “No, I’m fine. The fireplace is warm. And Licorice too.” “Huh? Me?! I feel like Aisha is stealing my warmth!” Licorice tried to fly away, but Sofia held her down, preventing her escape. She silently told her to be a heater for Ais...

  Chapter 191: What is the enemy's goal? {TL: By Creed} "Once again, thank you." After ensuring safety by moving further into the depths of the forest just to be sure, Lyra bowed her head slightly. "Licorice, please." "Alrighty~" Licorice floated up gently and fluttered around Lyra. As she did, something resembling fine scales drifted from her wings—glowing like fireflies. "Yep, no invisible injuries or anything. I checked with my super Licorice-chan eye, so it's for sure." "That light just now...?" "It's like a fairy's blessing, or something like that. It helps with fatigue recovery and calms the mind." "Wait, you could do that?" "Of course! I'm the all-powerful, invincible fairy Licorice-chan!" Licorice puffed out her chest proudly. But if she could do something like that, she should’ve done it earlier—like when they were fighting Doctor. As I gave her a skeptical look, Licorice hurrie...

  Chapter 190: Lifesaver {TL: By Creed} BANG! With an especially loud crash, the barricade was breached. A thug forced his way through the gap, squeezing his body into the house. Lyra frantically tried to flee... But the house was surrounded by thugs. There was no hidden passage for escape. It was checkmate. "A woman! A woman! Aaaah! She's mine! She's all mine!!" "Hngh...!" Lyra had dedicated her life to the study of beastmen, but she was still a woman. Being stared at with such raw, beastly desire—it was impossible to stay calm. Tears welled up as she thought about how much she despised the idea of being attacked by someone like this. "Ugh... kuh..." She couldn't run. She couldn't fight back. There was nothing she could do—only despair remained. And yet, Lyra refused to scream or wail. She wouldn't allow herself to show such a pathetic sight. It was her last act of defiance. Maybe it was meaningless. But even so, she could still protec...

  Chapter 189: Lyra in Trouble {TL: By Creed} At first, the riot had started in just one corner of the city. But then, it spread rapidly... Now, screams and shouts of anger could be heard from all over the city. The knights and adventurers had been fully mobilized, but they had yet to suppress the chaos. If anything, it was only escalating. "This... what are we supposed to do... No, I can’t let myself think like that!" Taking down each thug one by one wasn’t going to cut it. But there was no way to defeat them all at once, either. If it were Sofia, maybe she could pull it off... But right now, she was fighting Lena. There was no one else who could hold Lena back. I had to leave Lena to Sofia and focus on what I could do. "Fate, what should we do?" "…Dad…" "For now, we just have to reduce their numbers." The number of thugs was overwhelming, and even the adventurers and knights were being pushed back. But the enemy's numbers weren’t infinite. ...

  Chapter 188: Chase {TL: By Creed} "Hey, why are you running away!? This is where you're supposed to fight head-on, right!?" "I'm tired of dealing with low-level opponents like you." "Grrr…" They leaped from rooftop to rooftop. The footing was unstable, but it posed no problem. Sofia moved swiftly, jumping with a steady rhythm to close the distance. As expected of a Sword Saint. But Lena wasn’t falling behind either. While Lena had greater power, her speed was slightly inferior to Sofia’s. Even so, she kept pace without being left behind. Whenever Sofia tried to widen the gap, Lena kicked off the roof tiles with enough force to rip them free, accelerating. It drained her stamina, but she refused to give up. The two of them raced across the city’s rooftops in their high-stakes game of chase until, finally, they landed in a plaza on the outskirts of town. "Haah… huff… is the game of tag over?" Having covered a considerable distance, Lena w...

  Chapter 187: Holy Sword and Cursed Sword {TL: By Creed} Lena charged forward like an artillery shell. Fast. Sofia was slightly surprised but calmly intercepted the cursed sword. Giin! The clash of two blades echoed sharply. Then came the shockwave. Lena’s strength was extraordinary. Just blocking the attack caused this much impact. Had it landed directly, her bones would have been severed, and she would have been easily cut in two. A master of the cursed sword. An executive of the Dawn Alliance. Sofia had planned to observe her opponent's abilities, but— If she wasted time doing that, she would be defeated immediately. No holding back. From the very start, Sofia went all out. "Divine King Dragon Sword Art – First Strike… Mountain Breaker!" She swung her holy sword down, intending to cleave Lena along with her cursed sword. Lena firmly gripped her cursed sword with both hands, adjusting the angle to intercept the attack. Minimizing the strain, she absorbed the impact and...

  Chapter 186: Women's Battle {TL: By Creed} Sofia raced through the city, taking down any thugs she encountered along the way. There was no meaning in merely cutting down their numbers—only eliminating the source would truly matter. But even so, she couldn't just ignore them. She struck the side of a man who was about to attack a child, using the flat of her sword. A sharp pain resonated through her hand—she could feel his bones shatter. The man groaned and collapsed… In that moment, she seized the opportunity to smash his cursed sword into pieces. She didn't know the exact extent of the sword’s power. But there was no way it could surpass the Holy Sword, Excalibur. A sword imbued with the goddess’s power—there was no way it would lose to a wicked blade that corrupts the hearts of men. "But at this rate…" She needed to find Lena as soon as possible. However, her presence was cleverly concealed, making it impossible to sense her whereabouts. "Instead of searc...
